Early Today!

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

After many days in row of leaving the office after 10 or 11pm, I felt quite tired and have no life! However feeling a little bored today, I quietly slip out at 7.15pm. I felt a little guilty for leaving so early although I have even put on extra hour!

When I got home after dinner, I felt that I have so much time on my own that I started to sweep and mop the floor! It does feels good to have personal time and discuss which Wii accessories to buy for my friend’s farewell. Instead of getting home at near midnight and waiting for my hair to dry after washing so that I could finally sleep!

Woman & Worries..

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

To become a woman is to become worry of unnecessary things that is happening or not happening. It is a second nature to us, to worry about everything else that might seems to be nifty to the guys.

Is it our wild imagination or is it the way we are wired?We let ourselves to convince our mind that it will get worse or it is bigger than we thought and worry about the endless possibilities.Â

Maybe we are just too complicated.
Think simplicity.

It will be alright.

Hectic!

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Work has been a little hectic lately, putting on about 70 hours last week! I think I’ve never been so productive and hard working for a long time. Although when I was idle, I always wish I was more occupied; but certainly not to this level where I think of my work day and night and dream of it constantly! 

Now I missed my job task where all I need do is to request for barcode scanner quotation from my supplier, trainings to customer and work with simpler products!  

Share The Food, Share The Bill~

Monday, August 24th, 2009

“But I eat so little, only 1 single piece. Why do I have to pay so much?” she moaned to me in MSN.

“It’s so unfair! They eat so much and yet I have to pay for them”, she added.
Well, I do not know what to say except that it is like that when you eat in a big group. If everyone is sharing all the food, ultimately the bill is equally divided no matter what you eat and what’s the portion you consumed.

If you really feel unfairly treated, the only way is to voice it out and not to keep the unhappiness in the heart.Or else, just opt not to eat with them next round or insist on ordering food individually~

My Space

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

I got a new 160GB external hard disk earlier this year and now it is almost full! Initially I thought that the space is huge and I would take a long time to fill them up. But only a few dramas seasons and movies already consumed more than 70% of my storage. Not to mention the huge and thousands of photos!

But I guess nothing is more flexible than using free online storage as I can access my files anytime, from anywhere in the world. At time being, I am using email to store them but I need another alternative for larger files.

Discipline Morning

Saturday, August 15th, 2009

I’ve determined to be a healthier person in my diets, at least for the morning breakfast everyday. Ok, maybe only on weekday when I am working as I find that it is my most discipline time compare to afternoon or weekend. 

After I wake up and before I go to work, I shall at least drink or eat EITHER one of them : lemon juice with honey drinks or yakult.

Apart from the discipline, our digestion system works the best in the morning and thus I must make use of it by consuming healthy food or drinks! Hope I can keep doing it as long as possible.  

Don’t Panic~

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

What do you do if during the scanning of bags at the airport doesn’t allow you to bring the tripod into the plane as hand luggage? They insist that you have to check-in the tripod when you could carry it as hand luggage previously.

Your only concern is that the rough handling at check-in would spoil your expensive gadget.Do you argued with them or do you go to check in as instructed?Well, if there is another scanning counter, do not argue with them. Calm down, nod and proceed to another scanning counter and you might have your luck.

It happened to us and we managed to pull it off at the 2nd counter.I did the same method when my train card was bended and couldn’t be read at the machine. One of the counters refused to refund the value for me and thus I went to another station counter.

Yes, I got my refund value with the new card on the same day. ^.^

Busted Diet!

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

Even her efforts of checking the diet pill reviews website wouldn’t help much now especially after she indulged in all those good foods during her trip recently. Or so that is what she claims!

MJ has been on diets and watching her foods carefully for the past couple of months. But she said she’s afraid that her recent trip to Hong Kong, a food haven had spoil all her diet plans!

Well, perhaps a little more exercise and more diets to keep her weight in check again! :)

Retail Therapy~

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

How many times have you bought something which you thought it is a good buy until you saw another place selling it for few bucks cheaper? And you go #$%^&*($)(!*&@^%#!! (ok, maybe only applies for girls). 

Or sometimes you buy something that you think a little too pricey. Then you were told that the other place is selling for an even higher price which makes your purchase seems to a worthy one! And you feel the satisfaction swelling inside you and pat yourself at the back, good buy! 

Or you have the need to get something coz it is so cheap, although do not need it right now. I know only girls do it. Or only me. (but i know of guys that do that too!) And retail therapy does make me happier and chase away the blues. However small my purchase could be. Maybe a bottle of cutex at the fraction of price or a hair clip or something cute (but useless). 

Paying money for something that I can bring back feels good. At least at the time of transaction. Doesn’t matter it hides behind de closet or inside the drawer for months or even longer.  

Even writing about it feels a little good. Yeah, maybe I should write instead of buy.

Japanese Food

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

Back from work, I was happy to see another issue of newsletter from Sushi King waiting for me on the table. Lately I have a little craze for Japanese food especially a whole complete set that comprises of rice, grilled salmon/mackerel or unagi, miso soup, chawanmushi and side condiment!

Maybe it is due to the book that I am currently reading, full of Japanese recipe for healthy living. That’s the reason why Japenese do not get old or fat nor do they need apidexin review to keep them in ashape!

But of course, a complete & yummy Japanese set meal is not very cheap here. I can just indulge them maybe like once a week
