To the smokers in Singapore...

The haze seems to be getting worse and worse over the past few days. I saw some people smoking on the streets while I was going to take the MRT to go to my bf's place and this thought comes to mind... "Why are people still smoking now when they are already breathing in so much smoke fr the air? Ain there enough smoke in the air already? And yet they are still contributing some more into the air...

To the smokers in Singapore: Please try to smoke less... There's enough smoke in the air liao that you dun have to help to contribute more to...

Wedding Dinner Part 2

I attended my colleague's wedding dinner last nite. The food there was not bad but I think my colleague has some complains about their service and the speed of refilling of the glasses. I have no complains about the speed of refilling the glasses cos the service is definitely better than at my cousin's wedding. :P

I left my colleague's wedding dinner even before the dessert was served. To think there is still the wedding cake after the yam paste... I will love to stay throughout the whole dinner not only because of the food but also because I know how much effort she spent to plan the whole wedding. I was there when she called up all the hotels and club houses in Singapore to see if there's any available for her to hold her wedding dinner. I was there to see her planned all her wedding details. It was then I realised that getting married is such a troublesome affair and not to mention holding the wedding dinner. I even told my boyfriend that if we ever get married, I don't wan to hold a wedding dinner cos it is SO ma fan... :P

Anyway, I decided to leave the wedding dinner early because my other colleagues was all leaving. If I don't leave with them, I will be the only one left which makes it so weird. So in the end I decided to ciao with them lor... So sad... They were saying that it was quite late and we still need to work the next day so they decided to leave at 10+. Singaporeans are always like this during a wedding dinner. The wedding invitation already stated that the dinner will start at 7pm but yet they will slowly start strolling in at close to 8pm. Some of my colleagues even dare say that they are fashionably late. Who are they to blame for the dinner to end late? You come late of cos the dinner had to start late. If everyone is on time and the dinner starts early, will you still complain that the dinner ends late so you have to leave early?

If ever I really hold a wedding dinner one day, my friends better make sure they are on time....

Wedding Dinner Part 1

I attended my cousin's wedding dinner last nite. I think they invited too many people cos he actually asked for 41 tables. In the end, he needed 47 tables in order to seat all the guests... Think it was quite pai seh for him to make the guests wait while the people in the hotel help to set up the tables last min.

I saw my nephew whom I last saw when he was still a month old. He's already 2+ yrs old this year and is very heavy... I carried him for a while and asked his dad to take him back cos he's too heavy for me to carry for long. I told my brother they all that he's heavier than a sack of rice and I was right... His dad later told us that little Travis weighs 16kg... 16kg for a 2+yr old kid is really heavy leh...

His wedding dinner is still quite ok lah... As in quite normal like how everyone hold theirs. They had their solemnisation just before the wedding dinner but I dun think a lot of people attended it. My brother, his gf and me actually wanted to attend it but as we were slightly late and did not want to barge in halfway, so we went to a cafe downstairs to grab a light bite before the dinner.

The only thing I dun like about the wedding was the choice of songs played during the wedding dinner... I am not very sure who chose the song, as in the hotel or my cousin and his wife, but I can't really accept their choice lor... Please lah... They are playing songs like Tears in Heaven and 25 mins!!! Tears in Heaven is already bad enuff lah... but 25 mins~! Who are they trying to hint? :P So next time, if ever anyone who reads this blog is planning to get married, remember to choose ur wedding songs properly hor. Dun choose the song just because it is nice. Make sure the song is appropriate for the occasion also...

Here's an extract of the song 25 mins in case someone dun understand why I say 25 mins should be played in a wedding:

25 mins By Michael Learns to Rock

I find her standing in front of the church

The only place in town where I didn't search

She look so happy in her wedding dress

But she's crying while she's saying this

Boy I miss your kisses

All the time but this is

25 mins too late

Though you travelled so far

Boy I'm sorry you are

25 mins too late

Funny rite? Why anyone will choose to play this song in a wedding dinner?

Welcome to Hazy Singapore...

Wah... I think the haze is getting from bad to worse over the past few days... I keep having the feeling that I'm in Genting whenever I look out of my office window... I also keep wondering whether somewhere is having a fire cos of the 'chao da' smell in the air... Quite jialat leh... The PSI level even hit an all time high of 130 yesterday... Wonder how Indonesia is like when Singapore is already so jialat...

Life after finishing my studies...

Hee... I'm sort of enjoying nua-ing around now that I finished my advance diploma. Missed this feeling so much... hee... Dun think I will be studying for some time ba... cos of the $ factor... Try to save up some $$ first before I continue with my studies... in the meantime, I will jus continue nua-ing around... Hee...

Finish my Advance Diploma lor~!

Tonite marks the last day of my Advance Diploma of Strategic Marketing. Yippee~! I dun need to study anymore loh~! Hee... Actually the last day of my lesson is supposed to be on this coming friday but as my whole class managed to complete our presentation for the project today so this means we dun have to go back to school to attend lessons on friday anymore. Hee...

It feels good to finally finish my course after a period of almost 1.5 years... Hee... My classmates are already planning ahead on what they are intending to do after this advance diploma. Some of them have already started on a full time degree in SIM, while others are planning to enroll for the next intake. There are some who are planning to take a break from studies first before continuing. I heard from one of them that he will be going back to HK to help his dad do business. Some are also in midst of changing or finding a new job.

As for me, I think I will take a break from studies first before I decide on what I want to do. I am still thinking if I should take up a degree on Chemistry or a degree in marketing. I need to give more thought into this especially after my talk with my manager during my appraisal. Maybe I will go find a part time job to do after my work... Hee... See how lah... Relax a bit first lah.... :D

Annual Price Hike is back again...

The annual public transport price hike is back again~! Heard that this time there will be an increase of 1 to 3 cents per trip depending on the no. of fare stages u take. The more the fare stages, the higher the increase of the prices. Think nx time better go find a job that is within walking distance from my hse. Then can save all the transportation fees liao. Or else at the rate the fares of the public transport fare is increasing, I think I better start going for driving test. Who knows mayb one day driving a car mayb cheaper than taking a bus to n fro work? :P

Taxi fare hike, bus fare hike, mrt fare hike, how come my income no hike? :(
