要了一年。。。

Posted in China, Toys, Travel on December 31, 2007| 2 Comments »

还记得去年八月尾，我看到了这个装饰品，非常喜欢，站在那，看了好久好久。B$50-B$60, 不便宜哦。。 想了想，我买下来了。买给我老板当做结婚礼物。

这一年来，我都有回去看看其他不同款式的，我好喜欢，好希望有人会送给我。等等等。。。都没有。。 当然我也有点傻傻的，从来没告诉任何人我要这个。。。

前天，我看到了在上海的城隍庙街上。想了想，看了看，我买了三个。小的给我表妹们，大的已吊满了手饰，安然的在我房里。:)

莫名其妙的旅行 A Blur Blur Trip

Posted in China, Travel on December 30, 2007| 3 Comments »

22-30 December 2007, My family joined a Tour Group to China. We visited Shanghai, SuZhou, Hang Zhou, WuXi, YangZhou and WuZen.

The last time i joined a tour group was 19 years ago, and i don’t wanna join any tour group again. We spent very little time in every spots, and its so hard to take a picture with people cleared. I also didn’t get to feel the atmosphere of the fantastic sceneries. I waited until most of the crowd left the area which i like, then i wanted to focus myself with the sceneries, but the tour guide keep pushing me not to leave the crowd. And they arranged all the meals for us until i wanted to puke on the last few days. But yet, we can’t leave the group to find food by our own. shopping also not enuf time 😦 As tour guides get commision from things we bought from certain shops, they kept bringing us to those places like Pearl Factory, Silk, Tea, Chysantenum, chinese herbal, jade, teapot, crystal and etc shops. We went to alot of nice places like the Pearl TV Tower of Shanghai but they brought us to few spots, then they don’t let us go to some spots and don’t let us explore ourselves.

I like to give people travel tips to places i been, but after this trip, i don have any tips to give 😦 cos i duno anything in china. But the good things are We don’t need to plan for the trip, don’t need to fill up the immigration forms, visited lots of places within short time, can leave things bought on bus.

At the end the tour guide quoted our group : “上车睡觉，下车尿尿，到了景点胡乱拍照，回家还是莫名其妙”。this is exactly how i feel now.

A day to remember – When college gal turned into OL

Posted in Special Occasions, Thoughts on December 18, 2007| 4 Comments »

18th December 2000 – Woke up early in the morning, dressed up, and hopped into my aunt’s car. Oh yeah! it was my first day working, and i still remember this very special day of my life. It was the 18th day since i got back from KL. I had no car and i couldn’t drive!

It was a rainy morning, and i saw a tall and slim guy holding an umbrella walking in the rain. I walked into the office and greeted my manager.  Not long after, the tall and slim guy walked in. “Oh.. he is my colleague~”, i thought. My manager soon called me and the slim guy into the meeting room for our Orientation.

Well, the tall and slim guy is Simon. Later we found out that we used be kindergarten classmates when i was in Chung Ching Seria. Wow… kindergarten classmates became colleagues.

Eventhough i worked in that company for only 3 months, but i m glad i was there and til now i still maintain close relationship with some of the colleagues I met there.
