I Gotta Feeling

Ms Wen is in a very good mood today.

Upon checking my mobile at 7am, I received an sms from a friend. This sms really brightens up my day! ;)

With just that, I feel more energetic and able to come to work in high spirits.

There is another reason that makes me more inclined to come to work, that is my new boss. From the first day of my reporting to this new boss, everyone has been telling me how lucky I am, how envious they are, how nice my new boss is and etc… I know I’m lucky enough to have this opportunity to work for/under him. Yes, it is a him.

For the past 1 year in this office, this is my 4th boss. Indeed, seems like I am always reporting to a new boss for every other quarter. Now not-so-bothered by whether I’m being ‘thrown’ here or there, what I know now is that, my new boss is a nice colleague.

This time, other than reporting to new boss, joining a new business unit, my workstation will have to shift. Company is ever-expanding. From just a director’s room size office to an office which currently occupies the whole floor in one of the Suntec Towers, it’s worth complimenting.

Maybe heard too much about my new boss, in terms of character, working attitude and standard, I kinda nervous on my first reporting day. So nervous that I ran to my colleague’s workstation and ‘borrow’ a box of sweet. Within 1 hour, I finished that. Pop one in every 2 minutes… hahaha….

Oh, today is already Thursday. Excluding today, I’m left with 4 more days to pack my bag for my long long break! I was having this little chat with my friend, little did I realize I have been flying so often for this year. This coming trip marked my 5th time, YTD 2009, to fly from Changi Airport. It might be my last too!!!

Alright, I think I skive for too long… ;)

Lunch Hour!

Yours is 12 to 1pm? Or 1 to 2pm?

My lunch time is from 1 to 2pm.

Of course, we don’t have to be so rigid. There are times whereby we go early and come back late… Ops!

Have one ever wonder how many things we can do in that one hour? Definitely, there is a limit. However, we still can at least accomplish the most important thing and done what we wanted to do during lunch. So much so, what do you think office workers do when they are off to lunch?

Anyway, I had an enjoyable lunch with my 2 colleagues. After our meals, we went on to purchase bubble tea from another stall. Supposed to get some Teh or Coffee, but, ‘coffee shops’ within Suntec City Mall are so popular among the working class that it is always so crowded.

After our drink, I ‘dragged’ them into Arcade for a game. Played the Basketball machine! Hahaha… it has been sometime since I last played. Guess what, my colleague and I got 458 points together!!! For just 1 buck, we managed to play 5 rounds as we hit the qualifying points for next round!!! It’s so FUN!

Definitely, we will be back for more!!!! ^_^

Msn Display Name

Most of the time, I’m not sure what to put as my Display Name. As such, song titles are the ones that come to my mind. It’s a way to publicize/introduce new songs to friends and to convey hidden messages through the song title/lyrics or the song itself. I will always choose songs that I like, be it a moody song, sad song and etc….

It’s kinda funny when friends from msn responded differently to my Display Name.

For instance, I put ‘I Gotta Feeling’. It creates a buzz out of nothing. Many concern friends came to ask something like, “what feeling you got?” Initially, it caught me by surprise. I am not prepared to answer such question because there is no relation between the song title and my feeling. In fact, at that point of being asked, I don’t feel anything. Not sad, happy, nervous, frustrated, confused or etc… For the first person who asked me that question, I told him/her truthfully that it is the title of a song. Subsequently, I just replied, “I knew that you will ask! Haha…”

Anyway, this song is really nice to listen to when you are bored. It wakes me up when I feel like sleeping… not sure if anyone feels the same way… ‘That tonight gonna be a good night. (x2) That tonight gonna be a good good night~’

As for today, my Display Name is ‘Good Girls Go Bad’. This is also a nice song. The tune is very catchy. However, it doesn’t mean that a good girl will turn bad. If you labeled me as good girl, it doesn’t mean that I will go bad. How to define a girl to be good? How about bad girls?

For the past 24 years of my life, I have been stereotyped as good girl. If ever I made a mistake, they will be like ‘hey, why are you doing this? It’s not you!’ Oh com’on, we are all Homo sapiens. Things that you do/you can do, I can too. It’s only a matter of time and it’s up to me whether I am saying ‘yes’ to it or not.

Sometimes, what is the point of being good? Good guy short lived. Hahaa… unless I want to shorten my life…

*A typical and mindless aquarius girl who is uttering rubbish....

Hari Raya Puasa coming….

There will be another long weekend in September, a public holiday that falls on 20th September, Sunday, to celebrate Hari Raya Puasa with our dearest Muslims. For everyone’s information, pre-celebration started a week ago, along Changi Road. You will see that all the street lights are up and wet markets in operation. For those who like Ramli Burger, there are many stalls selling the same thing!

It’s a celebration for Muslims but frustration for all car owners who stays in near that area. In addition to that, my neighborhood is undergoing car park refurbishment. This worsens the car parking problem. I’m paying $65/month but couldn’t find a lot! Sian…

~Happy Teachers’ Day~

Didn’t realize that today is Teachers’ Day till I saw many kids running about in Suntec arcade. It is really good to have a break for all teachers… thank them for their hard work and effort…

Today is also a good chance to thank teachers who have helped or impacted your life. I have done my part, have you?!?!
