Calling it a night

Fiaks..I can't sleep. Just finished some never-ending-work. Got to wake up in another 2 more hours... I m so looking forward for this to end.

Gaze Grace

I wonder what is running in your mind when you gaze at me?

Sleep it off

Sometimes, forgive and forget is the best!

The Two Night Out(s)

We hung out together with a few other friends last night. We explored a new place and surprisingly it wasn’t too bad of a place to just makan-makan and have drinks. Food was ok, nothing to shout about, but the drinks are priced rather reasonably.

We shared the ordered food and had 1 pint of Hoegaarden each. Yummm…. Thereafter, I enjoyed a double scoop of Baskin Robbins…Hmm….how not to put on weight with the rate I am going with food?!

Guardian Angel accompanied me home and left thereafter. I was feeling sleepy and just slept till wee hours to remove my contact lenses…I was tired at the end of the day.

Tonight? The 3 of us went for PCK, the movie. If you want to release tension and just to have a laugh, then you would probably want to watch it in the cinema. ;)

I'm Lovin it!

I love this relationship and I cherish it very much!

We do things together, go places and dine in pair (sometimes with friends). And am sure there is more to come and it is long term!

An Olay Afternoon in KLCC

At one point in time during the day, I felt that I had so much to write and tell…but when it came to the free time that I had, I suddenly lost my train of thoughts.

What did I do over the weekend? Let me recall…oh yeah, I was at a concourse event in KLCC. It was MY concourse event, so I had to be there to supervise all went on smoothly. It was nice to meet up and get to know Bernie Chan and also Stephanie Chai.

Bernie Chan is the local brand ambassador for Olay Total Effects. She is really tall! Standing beside the 170cm tall lady made me feel really not-so-tall. Hahaha… She gave us her testimonial of using the products’ regimen and how each different product helped her to maintain and anti age. The crowd that day was not too bad. Being Malaysians, when there is free item giving away..well, you know the turnout!

Everything went well that day. I was glad it did after many rounds of fine tuning.

I left right after the session was over. I had a date – with my Guardian Angel. :)

Pre Monday Work Blues

I am not really in a good mood since I saw some emails last night. My work emails. It was from my beloved.

It's Sunday and the Monday fear is hitting me. Already it's Monday Blues, what more when I have an appointment with my beloved tomorro?

Please let me out from 'here'.

Double O

Options and Opportunities = my title for the night.

I was presented with options, specially crafted and created for me; which might lead to great opportunities and maybe success in my future. I am really thankful for it. But, I have doubts. I dislike the processes that take ages to get something. I have given up with what I am doing for the past 8 months. I don’t feel the passion, excitement and appreciation from external party after trying so hard. Maybe partly is also because there is no “good fate” with the external party.

I felt and know the appreciation and gratitude internally, but I really don’t think I can go on any further. Disappointment and frustrations make me a rather unhappy person.

Moving on will mostly do better for me than now, and I hope I am right this time!

Rocked and Rolled....

As I was blogging a little about this, allow me to continue it…

I arrived at Avillion, PD that morning in a private car with my colleague. I didn’t follow the coach as it was really out of the way to make a trip the office.

During the day was a more serious business agenda, whilst in the evening skewed towards fun and alcohol. Almost all of us came in Rock & Roll outfit. Check it out!

After dinner and awards presentation, music started and that was when the drinks started to “flow in” and us all in the dance floor. I had enough to drink. It was all night long till about 1am, we – the few of us adjourned to the pool. Initially, we just wanted to lepak beside the pool and chit chat…but disaster happened!

I was dragged and thrown into the pool – with my clothes on!!!!! It was really my first time ‘swimming’ in the pool with clothes on. My watch was also dead that night. I wasn’t prepared for it at all to be thrown into the water. There were about 12 of us in the pool, easily. All of us were playing & fooling in and beside the pool that night. Emie and I left the pool with my crinkled skin/ fingers and headed back to our room at about 2am.

I totally slept through the night and woke up at 7.30am the next day. Gosh, it was quite difficult to wake up that morning. After breakie, it was team building time by the beach!

Team building was fun. I participated voluntarily in the gladiator game. I wanted to try. Wow, it wasn’t as easy as you see. It requires stamina and strength and balancing! The other games involved were like blowing flour in a plate to get the sweets, gunny sack race and so on… By the end of the mid day, all of us were worn out, totally. I felt that the team building games brought the colleagues closer…now we know who is who in the agile office.

We went back to freshen and cleaned up. Had lunch and I followed another colleague’s car home. It was a short but tiring, fun trip!

Away and Back

F..K. It’s 2.35am and I can’t sleep. I've just finished looking at my work emails and planned out tomorrow's to-do-list. I tried closing my eyes and relax, tossing on the bed for the past 20 minutes and still….can’t sleep. My mind was thinking about WORK, non stop. Buyers' face popping up and the conversations that we will be having are running in my mind.

I was away from reality for the past 2 days and I am back to reality now.

In the past 2 days, I didn’t think (tried hard not to think) about work even though I was away for my company’s national convention. It was when the 09/10 business review and 10/11 business goals were shared.

It was away- from -reality for a short while as besides having the reviews; the 2 days were filled with fun and lots of drinking. We, as the new hires had to perform to the whole company and the theme of the gala night was Rock & Roll. All of us dressed to the theme.

We did some outrages things during this convention. I shall blog more about it and share some photos with you later…

I still think I should hit the bed now and try to fall asleep..or else I will be fishing in the whole day training tomorrow.

Happiness on the Way

Pringles was my lunch on Thursday. I had a very long meeting and headed back to my office late evening that day. At night, I finally had my dinner at 9pm. Waited till 10pm, and later I headed to Starbucks as the initial restaurant was closing. Guardian Angel met up with me there.

I could see his happiness was shinning from inside. His dimple was so deep and his smile was wide. It was good news! I was really happy for him, seeing him doing and getting better; going “somewhere”. We will be celebrating this coming weekend...

I shall share with you more of our happiness when the time is right…

Patience!

See-Food

I had a great dinner last Monday. The both of us were invited to Stevie’s house for a seafood dinner. He prepared fried crabbies with curry powder and fried la-la (some kind of shell fish). The seafood was really fresh as they just arrived from his hometown. Yummy!

It had been a very long time since I last enjoyed having crabbies. Anyhow, the crabbies that night tasted better….

….because of the company that I was with. ;)

Pampering Oneself

An easy way of pampering myself with food.

Where is the originality?

There isn’t originality out there or just plain copycat or just trying to confuse the shoppers?

I Don't Want it to Happen

I’ve decided to let work off for awhile and to write a few lines.

I woke up feeling not too good. It’s not that I am physically unwell, just that my heart and mind are not at peace.

It was rather a strong vision that I saw when I was fast falling asleep last night (or rather this morning). I saw a face and this person said a statement, to me – right to my face. It was not a pleasant statement.

I hope it is not true and it will never happen. I don’t want it to happen, at all.

A Sweet Weekend

One of the weekends, the both of us shared this. It was a sweet pancake weekend.

A very Exciting and Stressful one

Oh, it’s Saturday finally. The beginning of the day to my relaxation and enjoyment.

Well, this whole week was very exciting and stressful for me. In the beginning of the week, I was busy preparing and getting alignment for my trade launch to my buyer and her management. It’s a major and important launch in my portfolio this year. It wasn’t easy to sail through that 2 days.

Wednesday came and it was the morning that I had a meeting with my beloved. I waited for her for an hour and by the time I left her office, it was about 3.15pm. I drove to the nearby & quiet restaurant to grab a quick bite before heading back to the office. I was exhausted, total worn out that evening. Even my boss saw my tired look and told me to go home early to rest. She knew handling and spending time with my beloved was a tiring task. :) I met up with Guardian Angel at Stevie’s house for dinner. After dinner, I took a nap with my head lying still – on Guardian Angel’s lap.

I was feeling a little relieve on Thursday and Friday. Lots of paper work and follow ups, and thank goodness I didn’t have to see any of my buyers. I had to visit a few stores so I left slightly earlier that evening. Managed to meet up on time with Guardian Angel for Salt. It was a not-too-bad movie with a twist in it. I would never had expected such story – coming from the role Jolie played.

That was how my week treated me.

I am so dying for a holiday getaway. My boss asked me when am I going on leave. I shrugged my shoulders as I don’t have a holiday plan yet. I still have 4 more months to fulfill my yearly new year resolution…… Hmm….How leh?
