Other than the usual brolly, u need rain boots. Unfortunately it’s not exactly cool or a norm to wear it in SG. U will be treated like alien.
I kinda regret not buy it when I was in HK. It would have been super useful on such a super mad wet day.
Even my shin-high boots were wet to the brim.
Keep warm ppl!
Keep your shoulder covered and all will be fine ( tip I learn from my fren )
i was blown away when i read the papers on sat.
this advertisement took my breath away!
i could so imagine my ex-female boss driving one. or just any other financially-independent woman.
the red is strong yet sexy.
the cabriolet represents the adaptability of a person. let your hair down when you should. geddit?
well, prices start from JUST $139,800. OUCH!
How have you been?
There’s been so many madness going on, at work (mostly) that i havent got the mood to update.
Too many cooks cooking the same dish which includes my new director.
talking abt him, makes me sigh.
a guy with a job history of 1 job per year.
full of fluff like cotton candy and goes popping with creative ideas like popcorn.
do we really expect such guy to perform at work and achieve 60% of his KPI which is to hit the target revenue? i will update you in 6 mths time.
let’s talk abt happy things!
i am somehow being volunteered to be an usher at F1 Paddock Club by my big boss.
1st thing to my mind, is “KNN! Weekend burnt. no budget to hire temps so use staff as cheap labour”
2nd thing to my mind, is “ok la, at least it’s Paddock which is the best of the best liao. go have the best F1 experience like a millionaire”
recieved the uniform and super access pass!
i hate red. i hate polo tee. i dun look good in red.
really dun know what other colour to match the ugly looking polo tee.
so i did ‘belated national day’ colour matching.
so, what and where exactly is the Paddock Club? if you were at F1, it’s zone 1.
3-day pass is sold at $8,000!
the rich and famous hangs out at this place.
the minute you enter this zone, everything is free.
champagne, wine, hard liquor, beer, crepes, ice-cream, entertainment to 3 Michelin star restuarant food such as Jean-Georges & Nobu (go google it!)
Paddock Club Suites are right above the race teams’ garages. see photo below.
you could even do a pit lane walk! unfortunately, pit lane walk timing is the only chance i have to eat my dinner. so i didnt manage to walk down the pit lane to check out the race teams’ garages. see!
behind each garage, there’s a hospitality suite for the members of the race team to chill, eat, drink and etc.
i tried to find the top fav teams. this is the closest i could get to.
so 3 days of work, who exactly are the guests at the SingTel Paddock Club Suite?
day 1 > SingTel mgt and staff. the tickets were being balloted. so there were NCS ppl and lots of those who are permanent volunteer for some SingTel stuff.
day 2 > partners and clients of SingTel from various parts of Asia (we had Thai, Indonesian, Australians)
day 3 > more partners and clients of SingTel. mainly CEOs, COOs and etc.
day 3 was the most interesting for me.
We had the F1 owner Bernie Ecclestone with Singapore Grand Prix owner Ong Beng Seng, who brought along 3 racers!
Felipe Massa ; Bruno Senna ; Vitaly Petrov
was the only thing that got the ladies all excited! so i just snapped away.. Massa in red ; the other 2 in green in accordance to their race team colour.
Bernie’s so old and so successful. i bet that he’s the envy of all men. (the man with white hair)
He cleverly combine fast cars, pretty women, good food and unlimited booze and calls it Formula One!
the working team somehow managed to take a photo with the 3 racers!! woohoooo!!
talking abt the working team, it consists of high flyers in SingTel from Deputy Directors, Directors to Vice President.
the lady in grey is our GCFO. super accountant!
only me and a colleague are just managers.
u must be thinking where’s the SingTel Grid Girls? i didnt take any photos of them. hee..
instead i took photo of the Miss Universe 2011 and her fellow contestants for your pleasure!
super tall. macham like trees walking past you.
super flawless skin or rather super good cosmestic with awesome make up skills.
there was this moment where all the girls were choosing their Singapore F1 tee to get, all the men got excited!!
their perky asses were facing the men. one of them even had to use his powerful camera to snap the backside of the girls. see evidence below:
coming back to the race, we could see the starting line from the suite. super magnificent!
the mercedes SLR and celebrities and govt officials hanging at the track before the flag off.
Dun ask me how come the grid girl winner Mio is not seen flagging off the race.
Dun ask me how come our singapore gird girls are carrying other countries’ flags.
the race ended with mr Vettel winning his 11th pole in 2011 campionship & SingTel’s generous sponsorship of fireworks!
it also marks the end of 3 days of F1 work (pure hardship of standing long hours)
i couldnt feel my toes.
they will go numb on and off.
of course, the company is nice enough to give us 3 days off from work.
i dragged my tired feet to foot massage the next day!
also ate a feast to compensate the 3 days of inability-to-eat-in-peace-at-f1
so this is the most interesting F1 experience i ever had.
Ask me if i would do the same next year?
i will not cuz i would give the chance to someone else to experience the best of F1 among the rich and famous.
this song clearly brings out the ups and downs of a relationship via its melody.
the beginning is slow.. steady..
the middle is upbeat cuz in 热恋..
the end is on a repeat mode cuz u wish that everyday will be like 热恋.
are you at the beginning, the middle or at the end? =)
“Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they change our world.”
“Once a word leaves your mouth, you cannot chase it back even with the swiftest horse.”
and so i chose to keep stay away. keep quiet. have some space.
Another one left the dream team for a better future.
i am happy for her.
i wish her well in the next job. it’s gonna be an exciting one!
it’s gonna be a lonely journey ahead for me.
Hey you, yes, you! The one who has a long list in your hate list.
Isn’t it tired to live this way?
U ruin your own reputation when you stood to unscrupulous ways to get a kick from ‘torturing’ your hate list.
Why mix emotions with work?
Work can never be everything.
What would you take away with you when you leave this company?
What would you take away with you when you leave this world?
Those who were poisoned by your words, will realize that you are the witch one day.
Yes, I was attacked personally in your emails 3 times. Your fingers pointed at me. It was very lowly of you in your designation to do so.
After 1.5 yrs, most of your bosses dun trust your words anymore. You are treated as a ‘nobody’
All these happened cuz of your little acts behind many.
Take it easy. Work can be accomplished in different ways. Threatening and little actions are definitely the wrong way to get work done.
BITCH, I look forward to your downfall.
I will have the last laugh.
Go ahead and attack me for all you want. Have fun!
so in my 3 days of MC (which was quite bored for me)
i went shopping in JB!! wahaha..
my very considerate bf was browsing around in SASA, suggested that i try this ‘Firm Up’
cuz he feels that it will help to maintain my youthfulness. (in other words, he feels that i’m ageing. nb)
costs me $53 for 24 bottles of collagen. affordable la. so try lor..
tell you the results in 1 month’s time!
Sun
> re-arranged my room’s furniture to fit in my parents’ king bed. (they wanted my single size bed. long story)
> did everything by myself.
Mon
> woke up with super pain at my lower back!!
> went sinseh. i tell you i almost hit him cuz he did the suction thingy which caused me GREAT DEAL OF PAIN.
Tue
> cant sit or stand for too long. lying down is the only position i can be in.
> decided to visit the hospital to ensure everything’s fine & also get some medication.
> kenna 1 jab. OUCH!
Wed – Fri
> off from work! awesome.
> work 3 hrs per day ; slack the rest of the day.
so i spent time with my monster.
He watched his Dora/Thomas & Friends / Cars / Barney day & night in my room.
i even brought him down to cycle while i strolled with my sprained back.
look what i found!
Taiwan’s 卤肉饭 in Singapore.
it was one of the stalls at the hawker centre behind Chinatown Point.
tasted quite alright!
When in happiness, you would never be able to fall asleep cuz reality is better than dreams.
when in pain, you would try to fall asleep cuz dreams is better than reality.
but what happens when it’s a nightmare and you realise that your emotions in the nightmare is ‘carried on’ in reality when you wake up in fright.
i’ve somehow become a ‘i-love-stuffed-toys’ person.
Roses wrapped in pink monkey motif wrapping.
So sala yet so me & so you.
these are not just normal roses.
they are the big roses!
sits prettily in your vase.
conclusion: i’m just happier upon recieving the roses.
it’s not about the wrapper. or the monkey motif on the wrapper. or the pink roses.
it’s the thought to buy me roses.
Thank you, Mr J
Happy days.
Cheery days.
Fun days.
Where are you?
What happened?
Are you lost? Or this is part of the journey.
But still, we can choose to stay happy.
What is your choice?
Reminder: Happiness do not come with wealth all the time.
Choose your path.
