I have to teach some of the staff to do web design. I wasn’t prepared well because I was busy attending meetings and projects.

So I just printed out some source codes from the current website as handouts (I know it is pretty lame). Anyway, my sister was interested in attending my ‘lecture’ as well so I asked everyone to go to this conference room with white board.

It was quite fun actually. My sister gave me feedback that she loved my ‘lecture’ very much and found it easy to understand even though she did not know about web designing at all. She told me that the most engaging part was when I used living example to explain the coding, such as, fish, veg, toilet door etc.

To be honest, I was very flattered, because I really had no idea how it went. It was such a crash course and they had to learn almost everything in a short time. Well, I guess my colleagues were pretty smart too.

My ‘models’ for the company project…pretty right? I am so glad that we have these beautiful people working with us. The best thing was, they were very sporting and spontaneous. It was really my pleasure to be the photographer and ‘model recruiter’. *wink*

Yeah..this is my 4th time having fever in this 2 months. Pathetic isn’t it? It is all because of my poor immune system. When more than 2 persons started to cough at the office, I know I will have my turn soon.

I want to share some interesting toilet stories. The toilet is located at about 1 minute walk from our office. (actually it is very far) And quite often I encouter interesting human beings with interesting talks when I am peeing. I can’t believe people actually gossip in the toilet!! Do they check every cubicle and make sure they are all vacant before critisizing people? And you know what people talk about? xxx’s hair pin, abc’s butt, def’s skirt, hij’s mouth….and the list goes on.

Man..I wonder if guys encounter these at their toilets. I would rather go to their toilets.

And we always find cigratte butt in the toilet…Man…can’t these people smoke elsewhere? It is so annoying and disgusting. Why don’t they try fire exit co’s it is an usual place for smokers to smoke there. But…why toilet?? Actually, the worst thing is, the toilet doesn’t have TOILET PAPER! I can’t believe in year 2006 and we still can’t find toilet paper in the toilet.

Ok…enough whining…Let’s talk about something happier. I met up with my buddies in Penang. Most of them came back from Perth for holiday. Ah….I miss them so much and how I wish I can visit Perth again…

The faces that I love so much…

At work..

Well, still working 12 hours approx. everyday and thank god, I don’t have to work on the weekends. I have gone through lots of ups and downs at work and I understood (finally) what people mean by ‘Office Politics’. Not a good thing though but it does teach you how to survive in this society. Well, what does not kill you will only make you stronger.

(D*mn, that’s what I always think for comfort and I hope it works.)

Hao Zhong bought me a dozen of white roses at the night market and it was such a good deal! RM4 for 12 white roses!! Man…scream with me! The guy had other colourful roses, tulips, lilies…and they were very cheap. Look for this night market at Bangsar on every Sunday. I brought 6 roses to work today. I put 2 in my vase and gave the other 4 to my colleagues. Will bring the rest to office on Wed…(If I am in good mood! hehe..)

After work..

Mm…too exhausted to do anything but still, will catch up some work if the mood is right. I am so looking forward to weekends as I get to bum around at new shopping malls and dine in new restaurants. Also, will catch a movie at the cinema at least once a week. Man…it is the ultimate reward for working so hard! Actually, I am falling in love with KL now. (despite the traffic jams…pollutions…)

I love the flea market at Mont Kiara every Sunday co’s you get to buy SO MANY cool handmade stuff such as clothings, accessories, shoes from Italy etc..

My wish…

I really wish to buy all my colleagues a buffet dinner!! Man…if only my pay is a 5 digits pay…

‘May the fleas of a thousands camels infest the ass of the person who screwed up your 2005, and may his/her arms grow too short to scratch his/her ass! *HAPPY 2006*’

Oh dear, the person who wrote this SMS must have suffered a lot from the person he/she mentioned in the SMS. A wicked message though..! Hahaha…

How many of you have experienced this anxious and yet thrilling meeting with your potential soul mate’s parents? And the day before meeting them, you visualise the various scenarios that will possibly happen to you. You also struggle to choose a sleek, elegant and decent dress (but don’t want to end up looking like a escort) to impress the future in-laws. You practise the conversation and generate a few topics to talk about in case there is a long silence between 2 parties.

If you have watched the movies ‘Meeting the parents’ and ‘Monster in-law’, you will know what I meant. Actually, these are the experiences that my friends have shared me. Some have worse experiences though…anyway…

Well, I am blessed that I don’t go to the extent that I freeze up and sweat like a pig when meeting them. Either meeting up with the potential ‘future in-laws’ or friends (guys’ friends) parents, in fact, I do enjoy talking to them, especially listening to their stories.

There was once I visited my buddy and his mom looked at me from top to bottom and then from bottom to top. Then, she smiled, nodded and mumbled something to herself. Well, she was very friendly and we chatted a lot. Then she started asking me if I can cook, speak and write mandarin, if I love kids and etc.

To be honest, these questions sounded a little bit weird but well, I thought she was just interested in knowing me more. When we left, my buddy laughed at me hysterically when he fetched me back. The reason was, his mom thought that I was his girlfriend and obviously, I was the first girl whom he introduced to his mom. =)

This one is still OK. I think the most awkward meeting was the one sitting at a round table with his extended family members. You know, the typical chinese dinner banquet with more than 10 people. Everyone just glued their eyes on me when I first stepped into the restaurant. They were very nice and interactive though. They asked me questions and constantly putting food into my bowl.

Well, I have a confession to make: I am not very good at chopsticks, especially when it comes to mushrooms and fish balls. So the worst thing that ever happened at a dinner like this was, my fish ball just slipped and rolled across the table and eventually, on the floor. My face was blushing like a HUGE RED CHERRY (yea, that’s so ME) and I wasn’t sure if I should pick up the fish ball so that no one will slip. When I was about to bend down to pick it up, his uncles picked it up for me and joked about it. I was so relieved and I promised to practise using my chopsticks – especially on the fish balls…em…
