bintan trip

Had been busy arranging the transition period over last late week. Glad that I received good news on early friday morning before I left for my bintan short getaway =) It took just one day to receive e good news & get everything confirm. Long time since I had such feeling again. I'm moving on! Yes, finally =) Looking forward.
Had a short getaway 2D1N with my luv on fri and return back on saturday. It's a cloudy sat with drizzling till evening. No sunshine at all. The huge wave were quite unfriendly. First time taking a ferry that rock so bad due to the wave. The lady who sat beside me was having sea sick and vomitted -_-" But once she close her eyes for rest I knew she's one of those who will have sea sick.
Stayed at angsana bintan resort. They were having furnishing renovation. Hopefully the rooms will look nicer. Overall the room is still quite ok, but not much facilities in e resort. March is still a monsoon season, only limited water sports are available. Waves are unfriendly. How about the food? Only lotus cafe, pantai grill & veranda (provide beverages & home-made cakes). Price wise is definitely quite costly. Average usd20+ for a main dish. Menu in usd currency, but of cause you can request to make payment in sgd currency. The only other option for dining out with transport provided is to banyan tree. This is another resort under their group.

interrupted sleep

It's e second week at my part-time work and tonight will be e 7th day at work =) Survived e first week. For e past two days it's more quiet than first week. Guess it's common because e girl told me that during e first week she joined, it's also quite alot of residents walking-in to make booking. Anyway, will be starting e rotating shift from next week onwards. Had did a duty roster on Monday =) We will be working for consecutive then swop shift as there is only one set of keys. It'll be easier in this way ba.
Slept at 11pm last night, however I woke up at 2+am then 4+am then 6+am -_-" Seem like I've been waking up at every two hours interval huh =p When I first woke up at 2+am, I felt that I've slept for quite long but actually it's only 2+am. And It's so nice to sleep after 6+am especial when I need to woke up for work. Hmmm....I also don't why this happen haha But my twins told me that maybe my brain is still working as thinking will excited so hard to sleep. It's a sign of stress when I'm tired during daytime working hours. She experienced it when she's in cambodia working. Seriously don't know whether my brain is still working when I'm asleep anot and whether I'm stress LOL Guess it's always a good start off with a stressful job as your first job. I had mine when I graduated from poly and then moved on with part-time study and juggling among work, study and finance. As time go by, you'll feel numb towards e stress and you'll find yourself easier to handle stress ba ;)

Attended e wedding dinner that held in sg was at Intercontiential hotel @ bugis on last friday 4-Mar. It's lunar 30jan which only appear on e calendar once every 4 years just like 29-feb =)Love e service lol That's because e waiters & waitresses will serve you for every dishes =) Ballroom spacious & grand. Guess e cost will be higher also ba =p The gifts were letter opener and salt & pepper shakers. Shark's fin was very nice, but think some people will protest from harming these going endanger animals. Other dishes taste not bad too & especially e dessert. It was their special desssert which mean only this hotel has it. There are some finger food served after e solomasation too.

wedding dinner (jb)

It's been almost a week? since I blog. Have been busy over e past two weekends attending my cousins' wedding dinner. One held in jb and one held in sg for e consecutive week. The one that held in jb was at sutra mall. A spacious ballroom with high ceiling. Guess this's e building structure of msia ba =p Food average because e prawns weren't that fresh. Dessert was honeydew sago, my fav! However, the relatives that we share e table with were of weird character =p They were my dad's cousins. They commented e food weren't nice enough especially e fish, prawn and lotus leave rice. That's because e village that they stay in was famous for fresh fish. But...this not e irritating part.
There was this uncle who commented that e roasted pig head was e most delicious part of e pig yet he's not eating. He insisted others to eat instead -_-" I was thinking that since you said that's e most delicious part, why not you had it and leave e rest of e part to other. In this case, you won't have to concern about getting high chloesterol for over consuming =p
Then there was this auntie who had her second serving of e shark's fin soup with e indgredients. And it left a spoonful of starch soup and insisting others to finish up as not to waste food -_-" Insisting people to finish up starch soup consider as not wasting food? then why don't she finish it up herself? =p Don't you think these characters are terrbile? Oh ya, this not e only terrible act that e auntie did. She ate e fried prawn & da bao e steam prawns! I wasn't feeling well so I didn't have e fried one. So does that mean I have to da bao e fried prawn of my share? Actually I intended to have a few more steam prawns since no one is having it, but I saw e auntie staring at e prawns and hinting e one beside her to scoop those prawns on a small plate. You must be thinking they were trying to clear e plate right? Haha NO! They scooped it because they wanted to da bao =p Anyway, this was e first time I met such incidents. Interesting eye opener & exposure =p

last day of february

Guess it's e shortest month among e year with only 28 days in a month. Yes! I'm so looking forward to 2012 last day of February, 29! Just loving 29-Feb this unique date so much. Alot people must be don't really like it cause it's a date that only appear once every four years =) Especially any ocassion that fall on this unique & rare & special date which mean one is only able to celebrate it once every four years =p On e other hand, one may want to hold a grand & big celebration if he/she wish. Thus, this will mark a even more memorable time hehehe =)
Will be starting my part-time job this evening ;)

new lifestyle

Good news =) Received a phone call last night from segar rc informing me about e status of my part-time job interview held 2 weeks back. Start work on coming mon 28-feb! =) I'm still thinking maybe application failed because it had been 2 weeks but still no news =p Guess new lifestyle gona start very soon~No more slacking around after work. Time to get some extra income. Will be working as part-time administrator 2hrs per day (730-930pm). After familarising with e systems etc, it'll be based on a rotating working day with another administrator. It's just walking distance from my house =) Guess it isn't really that simple & idiot job as what you may think of. One will need to handle e bbq & tennis court booking, selling of events tickets, residents' complaints and even helping out of events etc.
Has always been thinking it'll be good to earn some extra income as a backup from full-time job. But still would prefer a fixed income part-time job rather than those what mlm job. Those job you have to work double hard & is more tiring lor. Though e outcome will be better if you willing to put in more effort & work almost 24hrs including your full-time job working hours =p Whereas for this, it's some sort of assist/serving e residents? *thumb up*
Look forward to e new lifestyle & hope I able to sustain =)

We walked all e ways down the street from jonker walk & passby melaka river and other point of attractions. Guess this is e longest walk as we walked all e ways back to e hotel =p the 3 of us who would be catching midnight movie headed back to e hotel to get some rest with my sis while e rest headed carrefour to continue with e shopping. My sis da bao porridge and had a rest after taking her medication while e 3 of us had a bath & short nap.

The next day, we had our complimentary breakfast at e hotel cafe. An international style. The food taste not bad. I found e mee goreng not bad =) Had forgotten to take e photos as was too hungry & happy over e delicious food =p After breakfast, we continue with e shopping as yesterday we had not shopped finish e area & my poor sis was too sick to be in e shopping mood. My twins & her mom stayed at hotel & rest. Helped my luv got his contact lens & I got e contact len solution. Happened to see one suitable size spectacle frame which I'm looking for. After 1-2hrs later, we went back to e hotel to check out & left our baggages with e concierge so that we could go for lunch. My twins & mom, my sis & I had A&W while e rest had chicken rice. On the way back, e tour guide dropped us at YOYO where it sells local snack. We didn't drop by at yong peng this time round as e passengers on e same bus chose to go to YOYO. Home sweet home~ Reached sg smoothly at around 6pm =)
Hope to visit penang & cameron highlands~ Guess it'll then mark e end of travelling of malaysia. Will then move on to thailand (some areas in bangkok not visited yet) & vietnam ;)

melaka trip (Jonker street)

After dinner, we walked down to jonker street. Previously e van driver had told us how to walk over to jonker street. A nice stroll as we just had a full dinner. Jonker street is just like a nightmarket (pasarmalam). There are alot of stalls & with e shophouses & decorates, it looks like in e 60s. The famous shop that sells local snacks is also located here, San Shu Gong. The local cendol is also located here, but I find e taste average only =p I bought a digital clock with color LED light with doreamon print & my sis got a pooh bear print one. Though there are alot of pretty stuffs, but I didn't get them as I don't need it. It will be quite a waste to give or throw away after sometime.
