Happy Boxing Day! Yes, I’m working today! Boss decided to open the office today. Here I am. This year Christmas was spent working from home and watching tv. Hallmark channel has a lot of Christmas movies line-up. I always love mushy-mushy movies! Our office Christmas party was held last Thursday. The theme for the night was “Wishing for the Stars”. So, all of us were geared up with stars from head to toe (almost!). I DIY-ed mine. Bought a roll of gold wrapping paper, some “twister” rod, and a hair-band. Cost me less than RM10 and my sister and I created some “masterpieces”. #1 : my master piece-s (i love the hair-band most!) #2 : the outcome Dinner was at The Chalet, Equatorial Hotel (lost count how many years having Christmas dinner there). Drink drank, but not drunk. The party was not as happening as last 2 years, when we all dressed up as movie stars! I was a Joker that year and managed to win the best prize. Not so lucky this year though. #3 : gift exchange for my colleague As usua...

i love to write

i love to write. i dont know why. word seems to attract me more than number. i hate sudoku. never able to finish one. except for those super simple ones. i found 2 exercise books when i was rearranging my cupboard few weeks ago. the first one was written when i was in standard 2, year 1987. it was labelled as Berita. sort of like a journal what i do every monday, as per the day in the pages. #1 : Berita (below are the unedit version, what i wrote when i was 8 years old) (L) Pada masa cuti sekolah, saya menolong emak menyapu sampah. Lepas itu say pergi main. (R) Pada masa Tahun Baru Cina saya bermain mercun dengan kawan-kawan saya. Selepas itu saya pergi mandi. i have thrown away all my exercise books. i dont remember keeping this exercise book. but it was inside my cupboard. there were 19 entries in my first Berita book. my second exercise book was written when i was in secondary school, Form 5 naluri. journal writing, that was what my english teacher forced us to do. he said we could ...

Image
We participated in the Penang Food Hunt 2008 last weekend. 2 cars, 8 of us. Team 57 had Elaine, Jane, Regine & Kin, while Team 58 consisted of Burnie, Cing Yee, Sim & yours truly. The hunt flagged off in Penang, instead of KL. We drove up north on Saturday morning, early morning, in order to reach on time for the registration & briefing by 11am. Team 57 started the journey at 5.30am while Team 58 at 6am. We only made 1 pee-stop at Tapah R&R. Smooth journey all the way, except slightly jam along the Penang Bridge. We reached Paradise Sandy Bay at 10.30am, ½ hour to spare before the final briefing. There was a sea of RED in the ballroom. Theme for the hunt was RED . Everyone wore RED t-shirt. What a scene! #1 : Flag off The hunt was divided into a few sections, in order to disperse us. 90+ cars participated in this hunt. We flagged off at 12noon sharp. Leg 1, we were required to find 4 famous eatery place in Penang. Google map were attached for each location. Both teams...

(with real gift inside of course!) i wish i have lots of presents dropping down from the sky, all for ME!
