First week Anniversary

Today marks my first week back at work. The same place, the same kind of warmth, the same passion. mixed with new challenges, new tasks, new faces, new expectations. I am actually excited about the upcoming programmes. All hype up. For a moment, I thought I was mad.

Friends know how much I would like to have time to have fun and just slack around the house. They also know how I would like to get involved in other kinds of work. But yet now, I am excited about the rest of the short 2 months that I will be here. Funny. What if I say I might consider working for December as well? Huiz will probably say: "No surprise." Oh well. We'll see...

Haunted Rooms-Take your pick.

One day, you get lost in the wilderness while travelling. It gets dark and you have no choice but to seek refuge in a small hut nearby. The owner tells you all his rooms are haunted. Which room will you choose? The room where: Room (A) - a human head stares at you maliciously from outside your window Room (B) - the bathroom door creaks open and close, and there are sounds of a woman sighing Room (C) - the bed starts rocking violently whenever you try to sleep on it Room (D) - a headless ghost sits at the foot of your bed when you awake in the middle of the night MAKE A COMFORTABLE CHOICE THEN PROCEED. A) A human head stares at you maliciously from outside your window. Explanation: You need a lot of private space and are more suitable to work alone. You look for stability i.e. a job that is not easily affected by external factors and provides steady income. E.g. Doctor, lawyer, SOHO, teacher, administrator. B) The bathroom door creaks open and close, and there are sounds of a woman sighing. Explanation: You prefer a stable job that does not require you to run around or meet people. You are willing to be subjected to pressure from your bosses if that lets you sit in an air-conditioned office all day. E.g. Civil servant, engineer, computer engineer, accountant. C) The bed starts rocking violently whenever you try to sleep on it. Explanation: You are an active person who cannot sit still and does not like to be restrained. You are easily adaptable to a job which is full of changes and not routine. E.g. Marketing, insurance, sales, delivery man, chauffer. D) A headless ghost sits at the foot of your bed when you awake in the middle of the night. Explanation: You suit jobs that need you to meet people, especially large crowds. Your job will depend on these people, but you will not know who they are E.g. superstar, politician, PR, counter/frontline sales.

Work. Work. Work. I should have taken a longer break! But then again... Haiz. So.... Work. Work. Work.

Banter Mag

Found this mag on my sister's desk and realise that it is pretty interesting. Check out their webbie at www.bantermag.com They should pay me for publicity man... A joke from their latest edition That Airline A chap, sitting in Danny's BAr at Singapore's Changi Airport, noticed a very beautiful woman sitting next to him. He thought to himself, "Wow, she's so gorgeous, she must be a flight attendant. But which airline does she work for?" Hoping to pick her up, he leaned towards her and uttered the Delta slogan: "Love to fly and it shows?" She gave him a blank, confuses stare and he immediately thought to himself, "Oh crap, she doesn't work for Delta." A moment later, another slogan popped into his head. He leaned towards her again, "Something special in the air?" She gave him the same confused look. He mentally kicked himself and scratched Singapore Airlines off the list. Next he tried the Thai Airways slogan: "Smooth as silk." This time the woman turned on him "What the f**k do you want?" The man smiled, then slumped back in his chair and said, "Ahhhhh, Quantas!" Erm... quite lame la... But there are other funny ones... check it out online...

2nd Sunday in May

It is the time of the year again... It is amazing how this woman would do everything for you - wash, cook, clean - without a word of resentment or complain. To think about it differently, she have had a choice not to give birth to you at all. But she did. Throughout the years, you shouted at, you screamed at, you quarreled with, you fought at, you lied to, and prehaps even swindled this woman who have given you the life that you have and probably enjoying now. It is also amazing how we never think twice about being rude to her, it is almost like a child's innate characteristic. I remembered something that a new father told me, "Yes, he is adorable and cute now. But the day will come when he will tell his first lie to me." Sounds depressing I think. How much effort mothers and fathers alike have put into to ensure that their children get a good life. I do not even know if I can even manage the role of a mother one day. Cheerios to all mothers! You have, whether you realise or not, made a big difference not only to your own children, but to this world. You have shown us that geniune love and care still exists in this world. Thank you mum, thank you for being my mum. Although today is a special day, you are special to me all year round - 365 days a year, every minute, every second. I love you mum!
