Wow! I did not realise it has been so long since I last blogged. The first month of year 2008 is almost over. Fast, isn't it? How's everyone in year 2008? I hope everything's still going smoothly. Everything has been fine for me, just that Darling and I seem to have many hiccups this month, kept quarreling every 2 - 3 days, which is very tiring and saddening. Not to worry, we're still going strong and we still love each other. Which couple doesn't quarrel? The couple that doesn't quarrel would have even more problems in their relationship. Anyway, shall do less talking, more pictures!
Christmas Celebration in Office on 24.12.07
Sakae Sushi...
Fruit Tart, courtesy of Jean who has left us in Aug 2007.
Another one of her works. Really yummy!!!!
Honey baked ham.
We had roasted chicken instead of turkey, cos' we couldn't finish one turkey on our own. It's gonna be a waste.
The woman behind the tearing up of the roasted chicken. Hee...
Fried Mee Siam from 933 Golden Pillow... One of our all time favourite.
Very fresh fruits. Of course, apart from all these, we had pizza, spicy drumlets, cheese cake, konnyaku jelly. Such a filling lunch!!!As per every Xmas Celebration, we will play Zhong Ji Mi Ma as we cannot finish the food. The person who kana will have to eat something from the table. We played a few rounds and finally all the food - down in our stomach except for the ham, which I bought bread for breakfast when we came back to work. We disclosed the secrets of our Christmas games and had so much fun laughing. The pretty gifts I have got this Christmas:
Winnie and LL gave the same gift. Hehe... luckily the color is different. This is a zipper coin pouch. Very nice gift!
Aussino 3 piece towel set from Mimi. I love the colour combi!!!!

Dinner & Dance
My first D&D with the company. To think that I was even in the Committee. It is a very stressful job considering 14 people in the Committee with different ideas, and each one wanting to get what they have suggested. Also, you learn about the politics in working life e.g. VIP table - who cannot sit with who etc. All these are sensitive issues. Also, you learn how to work within your budget, source for hotel, source for event managers, source for your own staff performances etc. I was one of the main person in the Committee. Very good experience!
I only have a few photos here. I haven't got the rest from my colleague.
The recep. table. Layout done by me and a few Committee members.
Done by Shang's florist.
Fish bowl for lucky draw tabs!
Our pool of door gifts - maracas!
The D&D Committee...The night ended very late, at around 4am. Took a bath and fell flat in the hotel room. Hee. Woke up and left about 9am, to head towards the market and prepare for my house warming party that evening.
The spread of food we prepared which looks like it was catered. Nahz. We cooked the food and presented it as tho' it was catered.
The wii players!After the house warming party, I fell flat on the bed and slept till the next afternoon 12pm before I woke up to go to my mum's stall to help out.
That's basically how I spent the last few days of 2007 and the first few days of 2008.
Been very busy at work recently as I have to write down a list of things to hand over as well as I wrote a step by step procedure on preparing the reports I have on hand as well as handling the half yearly reporting as well as moving office. Yes, we are due to move by this coming Monday (21 Jan 2008). Fell sick, down with cough, flu and headache, all thanks to my 3 colleagues who have not recovered after 2 weeks. My immunity is very low la, so long as someone falls sick within my department, it's almost sure I will fall sick too. I am currently at home on MC.
After sleeping for hours, I woke up clearing out my cupboard. When I was clearing, only did I realise I bought so much stuff which has not been worn and has not been washed. Things from VS, Giordano, Nichii, Bega and the most recent buy Bossini. Threw all these at my maid and asked her to settle them. Keke. Shall keep these till CNY. Then I have new clothes for each day of CNY. Talking about CNY, I haven't bought something which I would wear on the first day of CNY when I go visiting. My shopping partner, Jiaying, has went to Taiwan. Sad sad. I gotta go shopping on my own or maybe drag my darling along. Hee. And I need to replenish my make up! Everything's finishing! Argh... more more spendings. How to save more each month huh?! I will try to save more for that dream wedding of mine! Hee... Till the next update, take care all.
