Good Luck

My housemate buzzed me at work today via MSN. She seldom did so as she knows that I am starting at a new company so it must be something big. Yeah! She got a job interview tomorrow at a MNC company in Cyberjaya!

A few of my ex-colleagues had joined the company in the last few months. The company provides good benefit that includes catered-lunch, free parking, transport allowance and many more.

The only cons is the company is too far away from our home. Anyway, I encouraged her to try to go for the interview or she might regret rejecting the interview in the future. What’s more tomorrow is a public holiday! :)

Good luck to her!

 

Model Cars

When we were young, I used to play cars with my brother as he has a set of plastic model cars. There were from my grandmother for his birthday present. We could play it for hours without getting bored and play them few times a week!

Nowadays when I see the beautifully crafted model cars, I would have thought of the lovely memories I had on my childhood. I don’t know where those cars are now as I haven’t seen them for ages.

I am hoping to find a plastic model car for the make and model that he is driving. A reminder of all the fun we had in the past.

The Dining Table

I always thought that dining table is a very important piece of furniture in the house. It is where the whole family assembles to have their dinner and where talks and sharing are at the end of each day.

Not to mention that it is a place where you can do some work or have guests over for dinner. Thus it is important to get a good table.

 And so I thought if I spend a little more on a branded table, it would be a good one. But that’s not the case! I wish I could have made my choice again; I would have gotten one of those solid wooden tables. The one I have now looks pretty and classy but it is not as stable as I want it.

Direction

My friend always missed out my house! I don’t know why but I’ve given them the directions for many times and each time they manage to miss it and have to call me.

It’s not that I do not have those clear and lovely house number sign plate. Or maybe it is their sense of direction that needs to improve.

Anyway, for the next party at my house, I will have to make sure that they could find it on their own this round. I’ll a copy of map and a direction to them and have them printed out!

Best Shopping Experience

I had one of my best shopping experiences when I met up with my friend in her city. Her husband is away for business trip and she was all mine for the evening!

Of course, when it was only 2 girls, we went shopping! At first her plan was to get one of the western handbags that she had been eyeing for the last couple of weeks.

But at the end of the day, after both our legs couldn’t walk any longer, she has managed not only to get one bag but a pair of earring, a dress, a top and a pair of shoes! And I myself has gotten a pair of cute ballerinas as well! :)

Working with the West

For the past 3 jobs, I have been working with people on the west. My companies headquarters were in the United States, Ireland and Germany!

Not only we were encouraged to work late so that we could communicate with the via online video conferencing, we also have to adapt to their working culture.

I must say that it is an interesting experience to work with different from different parts of the world with different culture and background. But it takes a little patience and coordination as well as time management to have a successful collaboration.

Freebies

Who doesn’t like extra discount or freaking cheap prices? Well I am really crazy about them. Sometimes I think I would buy something that I don’t really need just because it is cheap!

Whenever I see the online coupon with great deals, I can’t help but to browse to see what good deal can I get from it. Even though I don’t quite need a new dress or more stuff, I couldn’t help to think if anyone would benefit from it.

I must stop from having this type of mindset and spend on stuffs that I don’t need. Time to save some money for rainy days!

After Life

Sometimes I try to think of things that is not happening and imagining the worse. I am not sure if it is normal but maybe I am trying to prepare for all scenarios. Or maybe I am just too free at times.

One of the things that I think of is my online accounts and money when I kick the bucket. Will my family get access to the many accounts I have and inherit them?

I know that there’s online will that one can plan to have them manage at those time. But it seems like I am doing a funeral planning checklist if I am to think this way. And it is sad and scary to think of that way.

Tee Shirts

I’ve never seen anyone who likes to wear and collect t-shirts as much as Mr.Adam! He practically only wear t-shirts no matter where he goes; to work, at home, to movies, to family functions! Only during wedding dinner, he will don on proper shirts.

His company has set a new rules of wearing t-shirts in the company but he doesn’t really care. If he is not seeing the customers, he will still be wearing tshirts. Only thing is he stop wearing those funny tshirts to work.

And well, he has get one too many warning from his human resource manager. But I guess it is a habit hard to break. He said he feels most comfortable in those tshirts!

My own room

Looking at WL single room, I feel that I miss having a room to myself. A very own room to put my stuff and decorate it the way I want.

I have my own dressing table now but it is not really my room as I have to share with him. Maybe I should claim one room as my own.

I would get the pretty tv stands like WL and make it as drawer like she does. And also a small wardrobe and tiny corner for photo frames and cards. Of course a wall mirror with blind to cover it when it is not being used.

I think all I want is a room exactly like WL’s!
