新年快乐!


今天是大年初一, 祝大家在虎年里事业进步,财运滚滚来!HUAT AH!

While everyone is dressed in their best on this day of the year, going home visiting, collecting or distributing ang paos and gathering with their loved ones, I juz woke up from my beauty nap... It has become a daily routine for me now. Wake up, have my lunch, feeling full and sleepy, then going back for more sleep. LoL.

Parents already left for their Taiwan trip last night. Bro went back to Msia with his gf yest morning too. Supposedly I will be at home alone with Baby. However Mum has asked Sis n her hubby to move in to my place these 2 days so that I wun be alone. Duhzz. Im not a kid anymore lah! I can be at home alone!!

Anyway, we ordered Pastamania for lunch. I paid for most of it. Aiya, 随便lah. They also not very well-to-do now. Still need to give so many red packets to the kids at my bro-in-law side. I didnt expect them to give me so much for my red packet too. They even gave one to BABY!! Will get my BABY some dog snacks with the money next time. Right now, the couple has gone to the hubby-in-law side to 拜年 and will be back later at night. What should I have for dinner later??

Everyday I would come online with nothing better to do. At times juz staring at the PC screen, wondering which site to visit. My 6 days of break coming to an end soon, returning to work on Tues. Sianzzz. Really dun feel like working there anymore.


Caught a dog movie online; *Hachiko, A Dog Story*.







A must watch for dogs lover. A movie based on a true story.. Simple plot yet can touch me to tears.

The story says that in the 1920's, a professor who taught at Tokyo University kept this small Akita dog named Hachiko. Hachiko accompanied the professor to Shibuya station every morning, and then awaited his arrival in the afternoon. One day the professor died of a stroke and never came back. But Hachiko came to the station every day for 10 years to wait for his master's arrival till it aged and died at the spot where it always waited for the owner.

AND this my dear readers, is the statue of real Hachiko!




I would rate this show 4/5.

Last Straw @ Work

Im on mc for two days since yest. Then my break start all the way till third day of CNY. Which means I have 6 days of break without work! Shiok or what?!

SOmething happened @ wrk that really very pissed me off on Tues. You see, our roster always change last min de thus we must check every now and then to see if our shifts have been changed. I did check mine every once a while....

Then I was off for 2 days and when I returned to wrk on Tues, I realised I went to the wrong shift. They had changed my original mornin to afternoon shift and I did not realise it. I even made the effort to wake up earlier at 5 plus so as not to be late cuz I needed to reach by 8am.

They expected me to go home and come again for my afternoon shift. I refused to go back and told my colleague that if I were to go back, I would not turn up for work in the afternoon. So I continued to stay for the morning. Our shift for the morning is from 8am to 6pm...

The new Malay ASM then asked me in a mocking manner what time Im knocking off. I replied 6pm. Then he said by right Im supposed to be in the PM shift. I said I know. Then he asked did I come in the wrong shift. I replied that I was off for 2 days and I didnt know my shift had my changed (cuz I saw that they updated on the 6th). He then said he will talk to Sharon, my ASM about it (she's leavin the co this week already). I told him angrily I would talk to her myself!

When SHaron arrived, I told her straight in the face that Im going back at 6pm. She looked at me buay song and said no. I could only go back at 7-8pm, depending on crowd. She said that she has updated my shift long ago on the 4th. I went to check the copy I had, mine was on the 1st...

Okie, I might be at fault for coming at the wrong time but what to do when they kept changing our shifts as and when they like? At least inform us lah! And Im not the only one who went to the wrong shift before.

BUT in what position is she to tell me to stay back when my shift for the morning has ended. Our store closed at 10pm, and she wanted me to go back at 7-8pm when I started work at 8am. SHe might as well tell me to do till closing! SO what if she is my ASM? My contract stated I only need to work 9hrs excluding 1 hr break per day. I dun haf to do OT if I dun feel like okie, do U understand me bitch?

The whole day my face super black. The inside of me kept wanting to explode! After 6pm, it aint crowded at all. There's enuff staff too. BUT that bitch purposely made me stay till 7pm... CCB

Nvm. U made me stay for an extra hour. I mc for 2 days give U see! And so, I really did not turn up for work after that. Partly is due to spite her, mainly is cuz Im really sick lah! Down with sore throat and a darn bad flu.

Im sending out resumes and actively looking out for jobs now. I cant wait to tender and leave the stupid co! The resignation letter which I've asked Sis to prepare is now sitting cozily in my cupboard. Hope it will be of use soon!

Will be meetin Tessa @ TPY in the evening cuz she will be dropping by the area. Shall meet her for dinner and to change my Thai Baht. Our trip is confirm at the end of Mar. And Im worried that I would spend every penny in my a/c thus it's safer to take the money out to change first.

Watched *The Princess And The Frog* online last night.





Love Walt Disney cartoons! QUite a nice one I would say. Rate it 4/5

010110.. Happy New Year!

First day of the new year! Let's start the first entry kicking with an interesting article that I came across in my email.

A unique shell shaped house that existed in Bandra- Mumbai-India, architect's name called Javier Senosiain and the famous Indian cricket player, SACHIN TENDULKAR living in it! Ok, I dunno who the hell they are but these are the info's that are attached with it. Hehe!

































I've watched Avatar 3D yesterday at PS. Totally mesmerizing visuals and fantastic story plot. High rating of 5/5!

Movies I Caught Online

Just watched the movie "Planet 51" online. The features of the characters somewhat resembles SHREK, which is one of my favourite show.

















It's quite an entertaining movie. And funny how they call the human species "Humaniacs" and that the man was labelled as alien when he landed on the foreign planet. As in if an invader came to Earth, we call them aliens. But if WE go to theirs, we are seen as the aliens instead. Geddit?!

A show that is worth the watch. I rate it 4.5/5


Second show I've caught online is "The Countess" that is based on a true story.





A 17th centruy Hungarian countess, Erzsebet Bathory also known as the bloody countess, embarks on a murderous undertaking, with the belief that bathing in the blood of virgins will preserve her beauty. She sacrificed all for love... and sacrificed others for beauty.

Though this movie was released half a yr ago, but I think it's pretty much worth a watch. Rating 4/5


Third show will be "Zombieland".











The show's not bad. Though I dun find it as hilarious as what others claimed nor as gross as "Saw" or "Final Destination" or even when some scenes are rather expected, it is still a movie worth a catch for it's plot.

I rate it 4/5


And last but not least, "The Twilight Saga; New Moon"













Episode 2 is definitely no better than part 1. Everyone's complaining how draggy & a waste of time the movie was. I seriously can't stand Bella's acting. In part 1, all her expressions looked so *ahem* horny whenever she gazed at Edward even right from the start when they were still strangers.

Part 2 is no better. Wonder what's in her that made a vampire & a werewolf go gaga at. Duhzz! In "New Moon", a new character, Jacob came into the scene. I think his hot bod has many girls croonin in lust bah. I still prefer Edward leh cuz he got this mysterious air in him. His eyes are mesmerizing!

Who will you choose?

I found a figurine of Jacob online too. LoL.





Heard part 3 will be alot better. More action pack. Thus I will rate "The Twilight Saga; New Moon" 3/5
