Do you like to travel in a tour group, stay in posh hotels, have your itinery all planned by a professional or just bagpacked and roam around wherever you pleased?

For me I guess I belong to the forth. Isn't thats what touring all about? When you go travelling (other then on business), you are there to relax, enjoy the best parts of the country and not to go around thinking of where to go and get lost sometimes. Let those travel agencies do the job! We just sit back and relax.

Well I must agree that there are always pros and cons about it. Like we might not be able to stay longer in a place where we like or do as and what we pleased, but I guess at least we get to see more places in a way? I do tour free and easy as well, however that is for places where I am quite familiar about like Taipei and Hongkong which I have been on numerous shopping sprees. But if you were to ask me to go big countries like China, Europe or America I guess I will freak out on where to go and where to eat if there are no locals guiding me along. Actually I ever went to London once with just mi n my friend. She is there for some hair styling courses, and while she is bz with her class I would walk around Oxford Street and I guess thats about all I know about London. I believed if I were to go together with a tour group I will know much more about it and its history probably. What a waste huh?

I truly agree that I am not a very interesting or innovative person when it comes to planning for a trip. I would probably just grab any brochures on the country which I am interested in and just book and go. For me, when I go on a tour is because I am tired about my daily chores/work/life and hope to go somewhere to have a getaway. As long as its a country which I am interested I will let the professional do the job. Why further waste our brain cells when we could actually use a little money to get professional advise and nevertheless to say help the economy. kekekeke...................good excuse???

Tell me about you now, which do you prefer?

Yippees......welcome to the blogging world Min Min.
Check out Min Min's blog under My Buddies!

Current status : Eating Snakes in the office. (Translate into doing nothing and lazing around. In case you dunno....waaaakakakka....)

Wow its been a long time since I last post anything here. Was busy watching this Korean Drama "18 years old Bride" and finally finished it just now. Great show GO GET IT! =)

A bit of update here on my job, well as all of you know I have already resigned from my job but I have been employed again......by the same company. tsk tsk tsk..... Actually its really a long story and it will get really long winded if I were to pen it all down. So in short is that I have resign myself from the Regional post and currently working under a local post. Probably ppl might think, Hey isnt a regional post much more interesting or even has more prospect then working just for the local post? I would say if you are capable, you will shine everywhere. It seems a pretty interesting post which I can't wait to start. Will still be doing Key Accounts but now not only serving 1 customer but 3 or even more. I can already c the challenges that is beckoning to me now. I can't stand jobs that is dull, slow or even boring. So hopefully this one I would really like it and can make it far. Actually at times before I accepted this offer I will wonder if I will regret for not looking out for any better offers outside, but after much consideration, I really do think that the company which I am currently working for is good especially now that I have been offered another post and I do not have to face my going to be ex-boss again, plus my MD has been really nice so far.

Ok now pictures time.............

Went to pay for our Korea's trip fee on Saturday and had steamboat dinner. After which we went to Cosy Bay at Tanjiong Rhu for a drink.

This is cranberry margarita, quite disappointing really. Its my all time favourite drink now but this place just doesnt bring out the taste for it. So far I guess the one I had in Shanghai's Hilton Hotel is the best. I have at least 3 every night there.

This is topshell. A type of snail I think. Looks yucky huh? But its actually very nice in some places, but in cosy bay..............I might not order it for a 2nd time.

Counting down to my last day of work which has now been extended and fixed on the 31st October 2005, plus my trip to Korea in October. Finally going overseas to tour and not to work. Its really hard giving up what I have now, but I guess sometimes in life you have to give up something to learn another. Well...maybe ppl might just call mi plain stupid or anything, as for me I am someone who doesn't like to stick to a job when I have not the right feeling on it, cos I will be really miserable. Ah.................!!! I am not going to talk about that sickening job again. Never again in my blog, just the thought of it reminds mi of that asshole boss. Damn it, spoil my mood again. That Creep, that Despicable chap, that fool, that liar, that bullshitter.......hm.............it think I am really swearing too much these days. But anyway who cares, cos these words fully describe that him. I really can't imagine how I could still feel that I like the way he work previously, I am so so wrong. I can't deny that he is very clever but he just "keng" too much. OPPS! I am talking about him again. ok now I STOP!

Nowadays I can feel that he is stripping me off all my responsibilities. But hey then why do you still need me to extend my stay right? Just let me go, it would be good for you, it would be good for me too. Actually I think I have a serious problem here, cos I realise that I really LOVE MY JOB and I cant let go..................I mean if it was me last time, by now I would have shake leg in my office everyday and not thinking of all the problems currently with my customers and trying to revive some of them. gr.............sorry.........I know I am not suppose to talk about. OK OK, now really an end to it. No more talking about work

Hm....................lets see what should I crap about.....................argh..........it seems like my mind right now its all on my job. Maybe the holiday will really do me good. Get myself recharge and chiongs again.........

Went Ikea early on to get some new stuff. Gotten some chairs (for our mahjiong sessions =X), a carpet to put under the coffee table, some plates, bowls and a table lamp for my study table. Whoooopiiiiiesssss! Wanted to get more stuff but my pocket dun allow mi. Although their stuff is cheap but still a couple of items cost me almost 200 bucks.

Ikea's Table Lamp
My New Carpet!

Earlier on went to my dear office which is in IMM. We went to have lunch at this restaurant called Bali Thai. Yummy food they serve there especially the Papaya Salad. Its so so so so nice and I am now still savouring for it. But I must say its very hot and not suitable for weak stomach (like Nei Nei). *Drooolssss.............* I am thinking so much of the papaya salad now that I am wondering if I should go to this Peranakan restaurant in Serangoon Garden for more. Ah........I WAN PAPAYA SALAD!!!!!

I have never seen such a big liar before. He told everyone I resign because I am not able to apply for 2 days unpaid leave!!! Is he nuts or wat?!?!? I never seen anyone so stupid as to resign because of 2 days unpaid leave. He told my ops manager that he has given me everything I had request for but I still not happy and wanted to resign. I think he is damn unprofessional! How could he tell such a lie. He said that I wanted increment, he gave it to me, I wanted position, he gave it to me, I wanted travelling, he gave it to me. I really feel like stucking a piece of shit on his face! Asshole! He even dare to tell him that my salary has already been adjusted since August! HA! I never even received an extra cent from him. I didnt even requested to travel! It's my job to travel not because I wanted to. I wonder where his brain grows. He is such a disappointment. I use to had such high regard for him. Admired the way he works. But now........he is a total jerk!

Just because I am leaving he could just slam stupid reasonings on me?!?! Thats Crazy! He has been showing mi attitude since yesterday. HEY! Am I wrong to resign?!?!? I dun owe him any fucking reasons for tendering if I am not happy.

During the talk this morning he asked me whats the actual reason for me leaving the company, and I told him that I am sick of all the waiting. Another company had offered me a better package therefore I decided to leave when this company has nothing to offer me at all, though I have not decided if I will join the company because I am just sick of all this waiting game. For 6 Months I have been hearing him saying, "Oh no worries, we are working out a package for u.". What the hack! I been working extra work for free for 6 fucking months and hearing the same thing over n over again with no progress in neither my salary or my benefits who will have my patience? I have definitely given him enough time. He even dare to tell me that I did not voice it out, I tell him straight on the face that I asked him for adjustments for 3 times and tell him what a person is looking for in a job and he dare to tell me I DID NOT VOICE OUT! Isnt he such an ass? He is just like what my dear says, he should go b a roti prata man. His words always twist and turn. He is such a total failure in human relationship. I am so nice even to offer him help by extending my last day of work, and what did I get from a big fat liar? More lies which he crave out. But being a professional, I am definitely not going to let him scar my image. I will definitely give him all I got this month and handover my job nicely. Can't let such a asshole ruin it.

To add on about the talk this morning, he didnt even have anything to offer me at all, or I shoudl say no authority, he is just a puppet! Now then I realise how useless he is when fighting for his staff. He just took out a notepad and tell me to tell him what I want and he will list down and see if he can give it to me. HELLO!!! Did I hear it correctly? I thought he is suppose to tell me something better then that if he really wants me to stay! He actually have nothing to offer me at all. He has to ask me to tell him so that he can go ask the CEO or whoever if he agrees? Dun you wan to laugh your ass off? I am just a miserable little staff and he needs to go all the way to ask somebody so way up high just to give me something a little bit extra? I just brush him off and told him that my decision is final and have no intention at all to take back the letter no matter what he offered me. It came to my attention that I could never work under somebody so useless who couldnt even fight something for me at all. Utterly disappointed again!

Actually now that I have finally resign I also dunno what I wanna do. Will just sit back and relax a bit I guess. Badly needed a break from all these years of working. Probably going to rest for another 1 or 2 mths to get myself recharged and then hit the business world again. It's really pretty sad to be leaving my current job. Its everything that I ever wanted, but working under such a big liar is a torture. Well I guess I'm just gonna dump that aside now since I have already made my final decision. If I am willing to work hard, everywhere is gonna be good. Sharon will never be beaten!

为我加油喔!!!

***Sorry if the entry today is a but crude. Got to vent out my fustration before I burst. And blogging happens to be the easiest way.*** (=^v^=)

I have finally gotten enough courage and tendered my resignation today to my direct upline. When I pass it to him he was still smiling as I think he didnt expect that I am actually handing him a resignation letter. After he opened it, he totally changed. He kept quiet all the while and didnt even asked me why did I decided to do it. Its pretty scarey. I know he is very angry but he didnt spoke a word. A while later he went to my operation manager and asked him something and turned to me for another question. After that he just blowed up! Whatever.......getting sick of his nonsense already. Promises made but not fulfiled. Things said and 360 degree change. I have only 2 words to say. FED UP! Sometimes I really dun understand if I have problems communicating with him or he has problems communicating with me. argh.............dun wanna tok about it. Even if its just 2 months to bonus time and I haven even gotten myself another job, I still decided to do it cos I JUST CANT STAND IT ANYMORE. As much as I loved my job, this has really made me very demoralised. No increments, heavy workloads, no extra allowance, no benefits and have to keep up with all nonsense. I definitely have 101 reasons to do it. Now I am thinking how should I tell my parents. I guess I better get another job before breaking the news to them or they will start worrying for me again.

Anyway I sneaked out of the office when he visited the gents, he message me soon after and asked me to have a "talk" about my resignation tomorrow morning. His message was "Human are funny creatures" I would want to have a talk with you about the letter tomorrow morning, please come in as early as possible...... Which means tomorrow wouldnt be too good a day for me I guess. If you are thinking why he put "Human are funny creatures", that's because I used to tell him this. I told him human always does funny things once awhile, so we got to understand that. now he is using it back on me. I didnt reply him though, just see whats up tomorrow.

Everyone..........pray for me please.

As I am writing this entry I am sealing up my resignation letter envelope. I think I really cannot take it anymore. Since day 1 he joined already 6 ppl has tender their resignation. He may think that I am a weakling to tender, but what I want to say is, its because I am strong, therefore I tender, because I know there are plentiful of opportunities for me out there. Somewhere where my talents and contribution is appreciated.

So now, lets see if I tender tomorrow. hiak hiak hiak........

Today went for 2 birthdays celebration. One is my granny and the other is my girlfriend Min Min! The only different thing is that 1 is celebrating her 71st while the other is only celebrating her 27th. hahaha.............so let the photo tell it all.....

Was a pretty boring Saturday for me and I started smsing Nei Nei. She is out with her boy at Bugis and ask her if she is interested in going anywhere with me that night except clubbing. She then ask me if I am interested in going to the Night Safari and I "ON" her immediately. hahahha....was so sick of all the partying nowadays, really have to do something different. Therefore off to the Zoo we go. Just the 2 of us, kekekek.... was quite an interesting trip, though I have to say that the tickets are a bit on the high side. For entry and tram ride it actually cost us $24 per pax, even more expensive then my entry to Club Momo. hee hee........

We went around the place in the tram. It's pretty scarey as its quite dark and you wont know if there is any deers or raccoons luring around, so other then checking out the animals we are also looking out if they would just jump at us from the dark. kekeke.......what to do, we are only 2 vulnerable little girls visiting the zoo. =X The tram stopped at a tram station which we alight and started exploring the leapard trail. We then went into this cage where its said to have flying bats. Out of a sudden I saw a very big bat flying right on top of Nei Nei's head and was screaming like nobody business while Nei Nei was just looking stonely behind me, I thought that she must have just missed that and started to tell her what I just saw, all she did was pointing her finger behind me and told me that there is one behind me. When I turn my head, there is this really huge bat right in front of my face!!! This is the first time I had such a close encounter with a bat, and a very very big one indeed. I ran right out of the cage with her. hahaha....... We are not suppose to have touch lights or camera flashes on the animals as it will distract them very much therefore we didnt took much photos as its way too dark to c anything at all. We tried taking a few and what we saw by the review is just a black patch. We even came to this part of the zoo where you could c the seletar reservoir. What a sight! Its like a very beautiful lake which you would never thought it actually exist in Singapore. So I quickly ask Nei Nei to help me take a photo of it, guess what.........when we check out the photo after it was taken, what we saw is just me and some bushes..................Thats pretty sad, course nobody would believed we actually found such a place in Singapore. So we decided that we gonna check out the Bird Park next and see if we could get something much more wonderful then that. hm...........i guess its at least 20 years since I last check out the Singapore Bird Park. =)

The best part of the trip is definitely the animal show which we went to. Its very entertaining and at 1 point of time we were both scare out of our wits when the host actually pull out a 10 feet long python right under our feet!!! Both our eyeballs dropped at that moment.....hahaha......

Well for now we shall be looking forward to our next excursion. Cheerios!

My office will be shifting to a new location next week, and was helping my colleagues to pack their documents into boxes. boy was there a lot of documents to be pack. Did a lot of labour work and now my back aching badly. Really am old le, i didnt even do so much house work at home. Was pretty excited about the new place though. Cos nobody can c mi as will be hiding in a corner. kekeke................


Had subway sandwich for dinner today and suddenly i think of "On my way, On my way, No way, no way, get your sandwich at subway." hahahah...............sounds familiar?

Nei nei got me this today, isnt she sweet? I am hanging it by my mobile. I like it so much though she says its resemblance a siow char bo (which is why it suits mi so much =S) while hers is a fairy. Thanks girl! *Smuack*

Tomorrow will be having our Quaterly Review Meeting with our customers and wonder how's thats gonna turn out. The last 2 which I have been to was pretty fine, but this time we are having some backlog problems and hope they wont take it as a topic to nail us down tomorrow. Pray for us ok?

Woooo Hooooo! Today really spend like nobody's business. Gotten a top from Mango, 2 CDs, some brushes from Missha, foundation from Lancome and more Make ups from Anna Sui. I really dunno how much Anna Sui I owe now, it seems like everytime I go I buy so much that I am entitled to their freebies . Just imagine that. hahah.....Its hard being a women huh? Can never go out without make up, must dress up nicely. Women's money is the easiest to earn.

Today took the LRT and MRT to Sengkang's Compasspoint for the first time after I have moved in here for 9 months! Wonder how they earn money with the Northeast line. Esp. the Punggol station. See how much passenger they have.......Sad Story......

Went K-ing with Nei Nei and BF just now. We tried to sing that last song which Kelly sang during the finals in Superstar and I tell you, that was quite a joke. That song is not meant to be sang, its meant to be listen only. :p

My dear came to meet us for dinner at paramount hotel. Yummy.......the food is delicious but so is the price. kekke........but wat matters is that it must be nice la. Had Buddha Jump over the wall, Peking duck, prawns, sashimi and lots more!

Happily posing for photos.....though my dear dun look tat happy actually....ha.ha....

My Study room is the place where I spend most of my time at home.

My messy shelves.....

I could just spend the whole weekend in the room surfing the net, reading and listening to my windows media player's music. Its a place of my very own, a place where I shut myself in the virtual world, a place where I could just do what I want and nobody cares....

Some of the stuff on my table....

Last year christmas pressie from Nei Nei, I have been eyeing this grey beary for months or even years. Somebody finally got it for me. Love it so muchie! Thanks again Nei Nei. What is this year gonna be like? *grins*

Believe it or not, this is currently what I am studying. No Worries, there is nothing wrong with your eyes, I am reading/studying AN ATLAS OF THE WORLD!!!!! Due to my job needs, I have to know each and every country/states in the world........And this book cost me over 70 BUCKS!!!!! *FAINT*

My Anna Sui's make up pouch. Yeah....I actually did my make up on my study table....kekeke...

Junk FOOD, ash tray and my blue tooth which so far only used twice

If you happens to see the other computer, I do have 2 computers on my table. kekeke.....kiasuism....

Surpise Pressies from my beloved dear that sits right on top of my desktop.

Weilian has finally won the competition in 绝对 Super star and signed a singing contract with Play Music, while Kelly has signed with Universal. I truly believed that the both of them will go real far with this singing business. Esp. Weilian, he has got this voice that could really win ppl's heart over, though I actually supported Kelly and find it a bit sad that she didnt win. Those who is out of love will definitely find it a must to play Weilian's song and cry their hearts out. Hm...I hope i won't have a chance to do so. :p

Lin Jun Jie is the special guest tonight. After Lin JunJie's genre, I suddenly saw a very huge gap between a real Superstar and going to be superstar. lol....I was so mesmerised by his singing and voice that upon comparison I realise that the other 2 contestants is nothing next to him. His move, the way he communicate with the audience.....Kelly and Weilian had better buck up. All the 24 contestants is going to have a concert on the 30th September 2005. Nei Nei wan to go? hiak hiak hiak....wonder how much is the tickets.
