Girls Trip

2011-02-24T23:28:00.001+08:00

My best friend Min has been bugging us to go for a trip, a short weekend breakaway when nanfen is back. Well, it's not easy to gather all the friends as everyone is so busy on their schedules. We met up during CNY and manage to decide the best date for this trip.
These two weeks, I've been working hard to make sure I can be off for a day. My current job is demanding in terms of there are numerous reporting at different periods of the month. Luckily, I'm in a good team with members who often support each others.
So, YES, it's tomorrow and I'm looking forward to it even though I think I will be worn off during the trip.
CIAO !

New Life

2011-01-11T21:33:00.000+08:00

A new life arrived today. Wish her has a smooth journey in her life.
Bravo to the new Mummy and Daddy

New

2011-01-04T23:08:00.001+08:00

It's a new year.
Time to change new blog design.
Time to pack my feeling and stop procrastinating.
Time to set new year resolutions.
And, it's time to think what bag should I buy for this year, ngek ngek.

心情生病了

2010-12-09T21:56:00.000+08:00

I've been low in mood and Shiau Hwee just reminded me that, 心情生病了。
是的，病了，药呢？

孕

2010-07-12T23:05:00.001+08:00

我领导的老婆怀孕了。
同事中，坐在我背面的怀孕了，认识的一个也怀孕了。还有起码五，六个，我不认识的，走来走去在公司。
博客的友人里，有四个宝宝也要来临。
晕，孕，还是晕。。。。

这些其实是好事，只是从没在我脑海闪过。其实也有的啦，应该不会超过9秒。一个没有超过9秒的念头，我没有理由让它发生在我肚子里9个月。所谓养儿100年，常忧99，我更没有理由要忧99年咯。

不过，听说保罗章鱼预测，会有2012哦。那再说吧，反正人生无常。。。

花果山

2010-06-15T18:37:00.001+08:00

最近迷上了水果，以前在家，水果都是妈妈买的，现在自己买，才知道水果比蔬菜，肉类，海鲜来得贵的呢。

我家现有水果，两个人吃，会不会太夸张？（有些还在冰箱里）。。。。

自食其果

2010-06-14T22:55:00.002+08:00

所谓有多少风流，就有多少折堕。星期六和友人吃了大餐。真的是大大的餐喔。。。

很内疚的星期日晚餐只好乖乖的吃水果餐。。。。

Non Stop Galloping

2010-05-23T12:49:00.001+08:00

Often, when I back to Malaysia, I will be non-stop galloping, like a wild horse - to shop, to eat and most importantly to meet friends. The feeling been home is nice. I wonder if I am staying back in Malaysia, will I treasure this kind of feeling?

Shopping will always be in my list. Clothing, shoes as well as grocery shopping for coffee, milo, beehoon whatever food which is not nice in China. :P

Eating is a MUST especially hawker food. No posh restaurant, just a stall with hokkien mee, ramly burger, wantan mee, tai lok mee etc etc and of cause I will carry the stomach with at least 3 kgs heavier when back. :(

Most of the friends are kind enough to meet up with me whenever I call. Some friends, the feeling is so natural. No need to think what should I talk, the conversation just come out eventually and hit every topic. Even if we silence, we won’t feel awkward. Met up with my uni mates yesterday night, and a few "talk cock" people always make our topic hilarious.

Sleeping is like an optional. But been a ‘老娘’ I do treasure my beauty sleep because resting is for me to play hard for tomorrow’s program.

心疼的爱

2010-04-26T00:09:00.002+08:00

心疼，一个朋友，为了爱，飞了大半个地球争取和男友见面，却遇到了车祸，就这样离我们而去。

心疼，一个朋友，为了放不下和走不出自己对爱情的死心眼，放弃了所有爱她的人和这世界，就这样自寻短见。

心疼，一个朋友，为了变心的男友，带着伤心流泪的心过着每一天。她不解八年的感情也能这样脆弱。

心疼，一个朋友，为了保护家人，抵不住祖父对女友的反对，逼着自己把六，七年的感情抛开。他觉得这样才不会拖累她。

心疼，爱应该是快乐的事。

一日复一日

2010-04-23T22:40:00.002+08:00

做工了，在家的时间也少了，累了，也罢工不做饭。
公司搬了去金桥，一个鸟不拉屎的地方，回家路途更远了，更累了，厨房更加少开炉。

星期一到五，大少爷回家比我更夜。
有时候，两三天也没见到他（虽然晚上应该还是有睡在我身旁。。。）

一天又一天，一日复一日。
工作天五天，有时加班。每个quarter end 有一两个周末也要加。

不知不觉，五月要来了。。。日子就这样溜走。

Scattered heart

2010-04-20T21:38:00.005+08:00

It's been a long time I didn't update my blog. Just can't find the right mood to do so. The departed of two friends in 3 months really hit me. I guess it also hit my other friends who knew them since primary school.

Life still goes on but the feeling to live has been difference.

寻找

2010-03-03T20:32:00.002+08:00

寻找我对生命的热诚
寻找我人生的目标
寻找我要对我自己怎样

怎样，怎么样，要怎样呢？

病。。。

2010-02-26T20:23:00.002+08:00

从还没回家过农历新年，到了家，跑了吉隆坡和槟城，又回到了上海，还在病。。。

天啊，我已不知道要怎样调理我的身子。。。

嘎嘎

2010-01-04T23:15:00.004+08:00

想了好久，很多话不知从何说起。

圣诞节的那天，梦到你。隐约的记得我们在你的葬礼的 after event，很多人出席，出现了一个人说可以通灵，问我们要不要试？那个人说要拿住他的手才可以通灵，梦里的南芬有点犹豫，就推了我去，硬着头皮我也去了。记得很多人围了起来，那个人做了法，可是等着等着，没有事情发生。于是大家就在那里笑了起来，觉得好无聊，竟然相信通灵。突然在人群中，发现了你，是和大家一起开心的笑。还记得你那傻傻的笑，手舞足蹈的笑，我们都看傻了。我还记得我 cubit 了南芬，确定我们看的是你。醒来后，我打了个电话给南芬，一边讲一边流泪，是开心，是想念，也是欣慰吧。

那天，你爸爸在灵堂说，你们PK 下次有什么 gathering，记得算海宁一份，我帮她付，或是叫浩正去。可以感觉到一句简单的交代，却有万金的重。不过，我相信每个PK都可以做到。

平复的心情已接受你的离去，但那刺痛的心还在隐隐作痛。上帝把你带走是有它的理由。可能它知道你会无法释怀将来亲人友人离你而去，那就先把你带走，只是它把你带走得早了一点。可能它认为你是最佳人选帮我们在它国打理家园。虽然不知道你需要等多久，但我相信你有耐性的。好好打理咯！

Life still goes on。怀念你的心，也是 always goes on。生日快乐！

Anyone can guess what I want to show in this picture? I took it in the subway. :P

Let It Snow

Shanghai was snowing on Sunday. I can't capture the snowing screen with my phone and luckily I still can catch it with my hand :).

时间已做了选择
什麽人叫做朋友
偶而碰头心情却能一点就通
因为我们曾有过理想类似的生活
太多感受绝非三言两语能形容
可能我们顾虑太多
太多决定需要我们去选择
担心会犯错
难免会受挫
幸好一路上有你陪我
与你分享的快乐胜过独自拥有
至今我仍深深感动
好友如同一扇窗
能让视野不同
与你分享的快乐胜过独自拥有
至今我仍深深感动
好友如同一扇门
让世界(变)开阔

A letter to Hai Ning

2009-12-07T00:05:00.002+08:00

Dearest Hai Ning,

Thousand words in my mind and yet I don't know where to start. I know you have sleep problem but it's not the time for you to sleep so long. Please wake up. The last call that I made to you was 31st October, after your Halloween Party 5am. You were pretty mad at me because I called you so early where you just slept at 3. You even e-mailed me with your "kicking leg like a kid" expression and scolded me. You said you are going to revenge and I am waiting for it.

You've gone for US for the past 12 years and without fail, every year Pks receive your birthday wishes via traditional post mail method. I have mine this year which dated on 18 Nov the date you sent out. I guess it's few days before you went to Tanzania. I didn't get to check on my letterbox until 3 days ago. Honestly, I thought you have forgotten me as I take it for granted for your birthday wishes and assume to be mandatory to receive from you. And yet you never fail us and I don't want to it to be my last birthday wishes from you.

You always sentimental and remember every tits and bits of your single life. Memories always fail me and I wish you always there to remind me. You always wish that every Pk will come and visit you in Cali and I always "say" I wanted to. Can you hand in there for me to pay a visit? I promise no matter what, I will go, OK? and you must fulfil your promise too as you told me you wanted to visit me in Shanghai.

Hai Ning, my dear Hai Ning, please, our last meeting was during my wedding and where is our yearly meet up now? You know I am very garang and you wouldn't wan to see me scold you !!!!!!!

Love,
Ah B

滴着泪的心

2009-12-06T13:00:00.001+08:00

心仿佛回到9年前，好友妈妈生病，去世的那段时期。每天都滴着泪。。。。。。

家家家

2009-11-24T16:51:00.002+08:00

我有三个家。住家在上海，夫家在吉隆坡，娘家在槟城。每次回来都要穿梭两边，好累，不过有得累也是一种幸福吧。

扫一扫家门

2009-11-07T22:15:00.002+08:00

回来扫一扫家，发现好静。。。。。。

不亦乐乎

2009-10-01T18:34:00.004+08:00

我自远方来，朋友不亦乐乎。
哈！其实友人乐乎是否我不知道，但厚脸皮的我，每次回来的行程排得满满的，尽量和友人见个面。如有漏网之鱼，不好意思，下次可以吗？

回家路途

2009-09-20T15:43:00.001+08:00

又要迈向回家路途，这次还真忙。
忙着工作，忙着帮友人淘宝；
忙着打包要搬家，忙着打包回家；
忙着约友人陪我玩，忙着写下需要回家弄的事务；
好忙！

创意月饼

2009-09-19T20:04:00.005+08:00

很开心大少爷拿了一盒月饼回来。哦，终于有月饼吃了，还是 coffee bean 的咯。

还以为是大多数是咖啡味，发觉只有一粒小的是咖啡，大的白莲蓉，其他的是：
。。。香辣牛肉。。。香葱叉烧。。。芙蓉肉松。。。

学习中文

2009-09-12T09:25:00.005+08:00

学了12年的中文，有时还是无法正常跟中国同事沟通，还被批烂华语，惭愧。
有些音调，文字讲法，我还真的须要时间学习。

不讲“公司”，说“单位”；不叫“上司或boss”，称“领导”；
“generate report”, 是“倒报表”；
“去想想，给ideal”,要说 “思路，思路一下”；
“print out”是打印，“e-mail给你”是发了给你；
复杂要说 “fu3za2";

讲话时，要尽量用完整的中文，不能加入不惯用的英文或我们马来西亚的leh, neh，偶尔的alamak, kanasai都会被增大的眼睛瞪，似说 lu kong mai kai !

有时回家，会觉得舌头有点打结，卷在一起的感觉。哈！

Packing

2009-09-08T22:15:00.003+08:00

Need to move apartment soon in mid of Oct. Now, we started our packing and believe me, this is solely things in my second room. We still have things from living room, master bedroom and kitchen to pack. OHHH DEAR.....................

简单的食物

2009-08-31T21:03:00.004+08:00

今天不知道为什么，没有什么胃口（别想歪），可能前几天吃太多了，星期六和友人去了 Sun With Aqua 吃 brunch, 晚上又去了什么马来西亚国庆宴会在香格里拉酒店， Malaysia food buffet, 有咖哩鸡, 虾面，海南鸡饭，satay, laksa，lok lok somemore 等等，。当然不能 expect 好像家乡的味道，不过还可以。星期日又吃了湖南菜。现在，有点提不起劲吃东西。

我不要日本餐，韩国餐，西餐，快餐，中餐。我要很简单的食物而已，可以来一碗卤面，可以炒一盘印度面，或一碟经济米粉面，这样而已。

I am very SOFT

2009-08-27T23:12:00.004+08:00

I was told a story.

Everyday, a little boy was playing happily with his cousins who are back from UK.

One day, the cousin, Christopher was cycling and the little boy was riding pillion on the bicycle. Don't know what happen the bike flipped and the little boy fell down to the staircase about 3 storeys high as they were at the second level living room. He CRIED so hard and the mummy quickly consoled him and put some oilment on his head. However, the hong so genes was in there and he immediately got off from the lap and told the mummy, "I need to go back to find Christopher because I need to play....."

So the mummy followed him and when the little boy met Christopher, he told him, "You have to be careful with me, because I am very soft".................

Whatever will be will be

2009-08-23T18:44:00.007+08:00

Long long ago, a daddy asked a son,
"What you want to be when you grow up?"
"..... I ... I want to be a girl....."
"WHAT??!?? You are a boy, cannot be a girl, you can choose either to be a doctor, a lawyer..."
"I want to be a doctor"
"Ok, good boy!" (Daddy *sweat*)

Not long ago, a son talked to a mummy
"Mummy, I want to be a bumble bee."
"Why you want to be a bumble bee?"
"Because I can fly here and fly there."
"Oh, good." (At least not a GIRL, *phew*)

Recently, the mummy showed a new pair of high heels to the son,
"Hey, the shoes nice or not?"
"Yes, Mummy. I want to have it."
"Ohh.. you cannot have it"
"Why?"
"Because you are a boy boy, only girl girl can wear this."
"Then, I want to be a girl girl when I grow up."
Ohh no Mummy is having cold feet again.......

Who knows, one day maybe he will become SECOND Jimmy Choo.

Never empty bag

2009-08-13T22:43:00.008+08:00

Let's say in a week,
7 tops + 7 bottoms + 7 under wears = 21,
Then, 3 (weekends clothes or kai kai clothes) + 4 (stay home clothes) + 3 bottoms = 9
So one person = 30 pieces of laundry per week and two will be 60 pieces.
I am doing 3 times laundry per week which means each time 20 pieces.....
AND my laundry bag still never empty ....... headache....

P/S : ohh I still have two pieces of towels to change per week, 1 set of bed sheets and cover in a fortnight.

小桥。流水。人家。

2009-08-12T20:39:00.009+08:00

那天，和家人去了同里，是中国魅力名镇,小桥流水人家,典型的江南水乡，而且也是世界文化遗产之一。

之前，看了北京这么多宫，去了苏州水乡，不知道是不是看了太多的中国式庭院和水乡，有点反胃了，我都没有那种哇，哦的感觉。可能这些水乡都变了旅游景点，太 commercialize 了。

同样的小桥，流水，人家，为什么在 Amsterdam 会想要在那里终老呢，有很舒服的感觉，而这里，还是免了罢。是从洋，还是外国的月亮比较圆？不过，中国风，还真的不适合我。

才刚开始而已

2009-08-12T20:27:00.001+08:00

第一星期上班，到了 mid week 真的有点累了。
每天都好多 information load 进脑子里。
星期一和今天回来，还煮晚餐呢。
星期二上日本班。明天也有，因为基础不好，也需要去星期天的班。
更糟糕的，这几天扭到颈，晚上睡不好，真的是老娘。
大少爷的衣服还排着队要烫，我已说明不干了。
哇赛！才刚开始而已。
不过，人的适应能力是很强的。
我相信我可以的。

It's just NOT MY DAY

2009-08-06T19:01:00.006+08:00

Today I had worst “BIG HEAD PRAWN” incidents in my life.

This morning, after sending off my parent, I realised my handphone wasn't with me. The last call I made was to the van driver and I suspect I must have drop it off in the van or worst come to worst in the airport. I tried to make few calls to Chew Chin but he was bathing that time and I also made the calls to my hand phone and it was still ringing. After few attempts I couldn't get hold of anyone, I decided to take the Maglev back and that time was around 9am. During the transit of Maglev and subway, I tried to get hold of two public phones and all were out of service!!! When I reached the Lujiazhui subway, I also faced two broke down public phones. Apparently, all the public phones are not functioning except the one in AIRPORT. Left me no choice, I headed to Chew Chin office around 9.30am. While I saw him in office and he told me that van driver called him and he is still in AIRPORT to pick up a passenger who will reach around 11am and only able to get back the hand phone to me after 1pm. What kind of punishment is this, I really want to CEKIK myself. As I have an appointment with the consultant company at 2pm, I need to get the hand phone. Thus, I took a cab and speed to the airport by 11am. Finally, I was HOME around 12pm and spent RMB435 for the total to and fro.

After resting and washing, I decided to take 1pm shuttle van to Puxi since the van route will be stopped nearby at the consultant company. Once I hopped into the van, immediately I realised that I left my passport. Again, I off from the van, went back home and took the 1.30pm van to go. Luckily, I took the earlier van and had sufficient time; else I need to take cab to Puxi.

After the meeting, I got back home at 4pm. I was very tired as I slept at 1am yesterday and woke up at 6am and took a nap. In the midst, I was struggling whether I should go to my Japanese class or not because I skipped the Tuesday class and didn't do revision at all. After much procrastinating, I woke up at 5.30pm and decided to go. When I left my condo and heading to the venue, the rain started AND I was searching my umbrella high and low and again, I didn’t bring it out. I had to return and get it. However, when I stepped out again, it’s actually STOP. Ok, cool, I was telling myself just continued with it. About to reach my centre, I stopped by at the McD to grab my dinner. When it’s my turn, I tried to search for my purse before ordering and to no avail, no trail of it inside my bag. I am not sure whether I LEFT IT again or been pickpocket because at one time, my bag was unzip after I searched for my umbrella and there are too many people walking past. After the two incidents, I think things happened for their reasons so I decided to go home to check and tuang my class.

Once I reached home, I saw my purse happily lying inside my other bag because I changed my bag.

What’s wrong with me TODAY and I really had enough. Cross my finger and hope I have a better day tomorrow as it’s the first day of work.

碎碎念

2009-08-03T18:02:00.002+08:00

来了上海半年，去了豫园走了几次, 而豫园里面其实还没进去过（因为要给钱), 城隍庙呢，今天才第一次进。明天需要一点 luck, 临时抱佛脚，不知道行得通吗，就试一试吧。

不怎样的心情

2009-07-28T11:35:00.002+08:00

不怎样的心情是最糟糕，什么都不想做。

我会羡慕

2009-07-22T22:13:00.003+08:00

今天去了恒隆广场办公楼参加 CPA seminar (需要上课维持我的 profession），刚好是下班时间，看着人家，都会莫名其妙的羡慕起来。有时，我会羡慕，没有工已不是单单没收入这样简单了。不知何时，自卑和自尊一点一点的累积。

我会羡慕友人有份好工，高薪，坐上经理或 controller 之类，虽然有血有汗，但我什么都不是，小小的师奶，洗衣烧饭。
我会羡慕友人有同事，多了生活圈子，还有人陪吃午饭。我只在家里范围琢磨，电脑和 TV 是我的午饭良伴。
我会羡慕友人打扮花枝招展上班，sales 的时候去血拼。我没借口买化妆品，sales 的时候，很多次看了想了都放回去，我不能说我不够衣上班，我不需要多几双上班鞋。
我会羡慕友人有上司，好表现，有赞赏，有被认同的自信。当然，也有被骂的时候，也有 low morale。
我会羡慕友人有 meeting, 可以 brain storming，遇到工作困难，可以一一迎刃而解，可以加强知识和人事经验，有那种 job 和 self satisfaction 的感觉。我只能问到少爷，好不好吃？味道怎样？
我会羡慕友人有下属，可以领导，有权威。我只是家里的阿四。
我会羡慕友人说我恨不得放工回家休息，回家对我，已不是这样的感觉。
我会羡慕友人可以开开心心计划旅行，我都得靠大少爷点头拿钱，也不能过分要求。

我想很多人应该很想揍我。Pi Piak, 我帮你们打了我两巴掌。

Adventurous Kitchen

2009-07-20T10:55:00.014+08:00

I've been very hardworking in the kitchen since I got back. Maybe it's a long rest after 3 weeks I didn't go into Kitchen (ha, I don't need to do housework too) or I just feel guilty to left my husband alone and eating outside for 3 weeks. :P I am not a good cook but definitely an adventurous chef. I like to try new things. Of cause, there will always risk that I need to throw away my food. But I am 打不死的小强.

First, Agar agar, yummy, I know it's a very simple dish but this is my first try though. I always just ask my mum to made for me whenever I feel like eating it. Sorry no mama in Shanghai. I was looking up and down for the pandan leaves. I tried Carrefour and Lotus but fruitlessly. My last hope was the Citishop as they are selling all the imported goods. Phew luckily I found it as you can see in my previous post and the mandarin name is quite funny - 露兜叶 as in "show stomach leaves"??!!?? I was trying to find the longan can or lychee can too. FYI, there aren't any in Shanghai, I tried most of the supermarkets. Boh huat, thus I have to use the mix fruits. The agar agar turns out to be quite good, not too sweat and the texture too. My testers said PASS !

The second is the Char Siew, ha, keng chao le, I saw t his recipe in Ohbin's website and wanted to try. Finally, I saw a good belly strips in Lotus and decided to buy and try it. How is the taste? Well, I think the pork is too thick, should find a thinner as the pork smell is a bit heavy. Overall, Chew Chin said still acceptable. I also bought some small pork strips to marinade and still in the freezer, maybe the pork strips will be nicer. However, I couldn't find the 麦芽糖 thus I took honey as the substitution.

Lastly, my proud presentation of the "Bi Kuey" as in Rice Kiuh. My grandma used to make the best Bi Kuey in the world and only can find in the Chan's family. This is the home made dish. It's actually quite fattening and oily but the taste is so GOOD. Pardon me for the outlook of my bi kuey as I still can't get the perfect way to make it nice but the taste is there. The first row is the first attempt and it's look quite cacat. I can't get the ingredient stick together and once i put into the pan they separated. Thus, I had to call my aunt in Singapore and asked her what's wrong with that. She asked me to put more flour and drained the water. Finally, I got a better looking shape (as in the second row).

Ingredients : overnight rice, tapioca flour, dried prawns (虾米), peanuts, a bit of salt and pepper

Method :
1. Mix the overnight rice with tapioca flour (sufficient to cover most of the rice), dried prawns, salt and pepper. Spring a little bit of water to make it moist enough until it's sticky (not too much)
2. Roll the mixed ingredients into a ball then flatten it, put peanuts on top.
3. Heat the pan and oil. Put the flatten rice kuih into the pan and fry and turn it until golden brown. Don't fry too long as the rice will be harden.

豆沙包一个

2009-07-19T18:07:00.001+08:00

Bravo Beh Kim ! You are CORRECT !

猜一猜

2009-07-17T14:35:00.002+08:00

哈，猜一猜这是什么东东？

猜中我请小笼包。不可以 google 啊！

郑重警告！！！

2009-07-17T11:13:00.004+08:00

我再一次告诉你，这里没有李阿姨。
我也没有玩股票！！！！

不知所谓，每天至少接了1通这样的电话，我已很客气了告诉他们，没有李阿姨，搬走了，很客气的告他们，我没有玩股票。但，他们还会问，为什么没玩股票呢。我真的，真的，要骂 KNS！！！　再来，老娘是不好惹的！！！！！

懊恼的金丝雀

2009-07-15T12:24:00.003+08:00

大少爷说，我的金丝雀回巢了。之前在家无所事事，有人供养，没有发胖，还瘦的呢，反而放生了三个星期，重了三公斤。这只雀应该是不适合待在家里, 还是出去飞翔好。可是爱美的金丝雀要瘦，所以懊恼，懊恼，很懊恼。

出游记

2009-07-14T20:57:00.006+08:00

我有一班特别好玩的朋友，每年都计划去旅行，不怕你没人陪，只怕你没时间，你没钱。这班认识超过20年的朋友，什么性格，什么怪癖，大约可以捉摸。只是人老了，脾气很快暴躁，火花也纷纷爆发，不过都不损友谊，还会加强彼此的了解。有相士说， 1978年的马，多数有点头风，有点神经志，好玩，往往向外奔跑。哈，这就是我们。 I miss you gals.. sobs sobs

Another round of blocking

2009-07-07T23:51:00.003+08:00

Just heard from Chew Chin, China is blocking the facebook. Yeah, no blogger, no twitter, no wordpress and now NO FACEBOOK !!!!!! I really hope that by the time I got back, I still can access to facebook and blogger through the VPN.

Pray hard, pray very very hard.

Laptop KAPUT

2009-07-07T00:01:00.002+08:00

Sobs, my laptop doesn't want to boot this morning. Luckily my aunt from Penang is in Singapore and will be back tomorrow. I have no choice to send back Penang for repairing. Cross my finger, I hope it can get it done by this Saturday and ask someone to bring back to KL for me on Sunday. The worst thing is I DIDN'T BACK UP MY STUFFFFFFFF... really kns!!!!

urghhhh!!!!!!

马不停的跑

我是CPS..... chao sim pu, 很会跑的 CSP。
打从昨天回来KL, 晚上我约了友人。今天午，晚餐，又在外和友人享用。我还不敢告诉家婆，我明天晚上也约了人，星期五午，晚餐和星期六午餐也约了友人。而且，星期日我就要去新加坡了。去新加坡了, 又去 kuching，12号回来，14号就会回去上海。我想13号应该会乖乖在家吧。

不知道我家翁几时会赠我一句，“si pek gao zao hor, 你当家里是酒店啊？！！？”

Annual War

2009-06-29T17:32:00.010+08:00

Since three years ago, I am very scared of this particular day in the year - last Saturday of June. Often, a lot of comments come out in the AGM like these.......

"Your company doens't have a system, it's so poor manage.... Board of directors don't know what they doing..... " "hmm... the Company has been incorporated for 30 years and if no system, I really don't know how they survive till now"

"What??!!?? You all got 13 million turnover and only get a net profit of 12k, mah as well no need to work. Last year you got 12 million and has 100K profit so by looking at it, next year - 2009 u said going to have 15 million, the Company sure make loses lor......" "........."

"I really think you all no need to do lah, every year also 3% dividend.... what is this?!!!??." "Since the Company incorporated, the Board has distributed more than 100% dividend plus additional bonus issued to the shareholders, technically speaking, they already got 100% back on what they invested. Despite profit or loss, the Company has been giving dividend at least 3% each year......"

Other than these very mean comments, the Management are required to show detailed profit and loss to the shareholders and explaining every big variances and the rationale of spending the money. Been questioned like we are stealing the money and I really feel like been striped naked one by one with the questions.

Attending this AGM is actually like attending a war, shareholders come in with the mindset that I AM THE INVESTOR, the Company is USING MY MONEY. MY MONEY YOU KNOW (ya, the money they invested 25-30 years ago)

Honestly, it's a culture shock and heart aching process for me to attending the AGM for the first time 3 years ago. I didn't know the existence of barbarians in this world and worse come to worse, they are my relatives. No one is perfect in this world, I understand there are some shortfalls on the Management and the communication style in the Company, however for a Company to survive for 30 years, there is a way and a reason. The Directors have been hands on to do many things, they work hard towards the bottom line for the Company, worry about the sales, the expenses and in return, they are questioned by the shareholders every year on their competency and listened to those harsh comments.

I choose to believe in past life, my father must have did something bad towards these people and this life is the repayment and get all these disrespect acts from them. The AGM is really haunted me since I set my foot there 3 years ago. Even so, I know I will still attending in future and I just want to be there, not as a shareholder or director, just as a daughter to protect my father.

一个女人一条狗

2009-06-21T22:26:00.003+08:00

好几次经过这个铜像，都忍不住看多一眼。想起友人也刚刚养了一条类似的狗，这美丽的优雅坐姿，不知真人真狗，是否也一样的情景。

有时想想，不如弄一条小狗陪伴我，但我知道我不是宠物爱好者。甭说宠物，连花草树木我都不动。我没有耐心，也没爱心。那还是一个人吧。希望大少爷可以陪我终老。也希望老了有间 LAO LANG KENG (老人院）住满一群我的朋友们。 BKBK, 真的是时候开始我们的LLK 计划。

宴客

2009-06-18T22:13:00.010+08:00

来一盘炒豆瓣啦垃。

加个香辣咖哩鸡吧。

再来碟芥兰。。。。。。

哇赛，宴客了！！！！！！

以上都不是我煮的，我只是其中一个肚子贡献者。

前三样菜是我在上海对我十分关照的友人煮的。她，美丽大方，事业有成，经济独立，又烧得一手好菜。如今还是找着有感觉，陪她开心难过，能让她不厌烦的另一半。我也望祝君好！

李阿姨在吗?

2009-06-15T11:35:00.006+08:00

我家电话号码前用户应该是股票发烧友。

刚开始的时候，懵懂懂的我。
“喂，请问李阿姨在吗？”
“打错了，没这个人。”
“李爱卿阿姨喔？！？老张的爱人。”
“是的，没这个人。”
“不可能啊！”
“。。。。。。”

“喂，请问李阿姨在吗？”
“打错了，没这个人。”
“李爱卿阿姨喔？！？”
“搬了！！”
“那她搬去哪里了？”
“不知道，谢谢！”

几次了，还是不时有人打来。
“喂，李阿姨你好吗？我是小陈”
“没这个人，她搬走了。”
“哦，搬走了。那阿姨，你有没有玩股票？”
“没有，谢谢！”

“喂，请问李阿姨在吗？”
“她搬走了。”
“哦，搬走了。阿姨，我是某某股票行经纪人？”
“没有兴趣，谢谢！”

现在的我，无名火开始。。。。。。
“喂，请问李阿姨在吗？”
“她搬走了！！”
“哦，搬走了。那阿姨，你有没有空？”
“我没兴趣跟你讲话，谢谢！“
“我想介绍。。。。*slam the phone* ”

"喂，李阿姨啊！”
“她搬走了！！！！！！！！！”
“哦，搬走了。那阿姨，你贵姓？”
“我贵姓关你什么屁事？？！！？？”
*slam the phone*

Chefs around me

2009-06-11T21:31:00.006+08:00

God must be love me in some way because He knows my cooking sucks. :P Since we move to Shanghai, we often get invited to have makan session in friend's house. I have good chefs around me even away from home.

We were lucky enough and served with big feast, lovely home cook food or even Malaysian style nasi lemak meal. Very often, I am too excited to see the good food and forgot to take pictures. I only managed or remembered to take 2 photos out of so many good meals.

Since a friend left me a package of Prima Taste Chicken Rice pack before she left, I guess it's time to return the treat back to my friends. But Chew Chin said, ARE YOU SURE?!!!???

Ohh well, there will always be the first time.

素来素往

2009-06-11T20:50:00.008+08:00

每个星期四是我的素食天。每次都不知道要怎样煮。前天，在市场买了一条丝瓜，鸡腿菇和白菇菇，终于可以摆脱单单青菜晚餐。丝瓜豆腐，杂菇连天，清炒芫菜，觉得还不够，最后还加了一个破了的荷包蛋。

前天也买了小碟子方便我把大少爷的菜肴放进　ｓｔｅａｍｗｏｋ　里。　美丽的碟，看了也好吃！（臭美！）下午捎个ｓｍｓ说明天突然要去沈阳　ｄａｙ　ｔｒｉｐ，　一定有很多准备，今晚也不知道要几点回家了。

Dream Dream Dream

2009-06-11T00:03:00.005+08:00

I have been dreaming so often these days and make me so tired every morning when I wake up. I really don't know what's wrong with me.

Friend suggested that I should go exercise. Yes I do, I go yoga almost everyday if I am free. Physically I am tired indeed but mentally I am not, maybe that is the problem.

Friend said I am too stress. Yes, definitely. Stress because I am a "siu lai lai", stress been stress free. Errr... what am I talking?!!???

Gosh.... Can anyone please teach me how? I don't want to have any dream at night, I just want a dream free night with deep sound sleep like Little Ray Ern. :(

Kin Boh Tit 篇

2009-06-09T11:19:00.010+08:00

可怜的大少爷最近工作很累，虽然只是小小的一间办公室，但需要包山包海。说真的，以前在 Corporate Finance，怎样都是一个 professional。现在，公司的帐到行政，都要烦，应该很不惯，心里也会不平衡。中国在马来西亚有什么风吹草动，都关他的事。一通电话，喂，你好，你去查看，他就要从各方面下手。

由于无能的我还没办法找到工，每天吃喝玩乐，虽然生活还可以过，怎样都好，现在只有 sole income, 暗地里应该给大少爷少少压力，少少负担。往往给家用，都会说，省点用，不要整天淘宝，逛街。有时看到我纳闷，会问，是我连累了你吗？他也会问，你想不想回去呢？半年了，我还是没早落，现在情况还不乐观，大少爷也开始说，不然两年后我们回去了，你都没有找到工作。

或许应该是在这里累坏了吧，或许看我有时真的 kin boh tit，应该觉得对不起我。在还没来之前，兴致勃勃希望可以在这里发展，有机会还会待几年。那我何尝也不是连累了他吗？

A Great Company for a week

2009-06-07T14:54:00.010+08:00

My second younger sista - Yee Ming was here with me for a week. Initial plan, my parents and the youngest sista would be flying in 4 days after her to visit me in Shanghai. However due to my dad's operation and H1N1, they canceled their trip. Since Yee Ming was flying from Singapore, thus she stayed tune with her trip.

Therefore, I got a free Ahyi for a week. Muakakaka. She helped me to carry stuff when did grocery shopping, she cooked for me, she hanged the laundry for me. This is what you call "Tai Kar Che". Muakaka, of coz I did bring her out and her good 大姐夫 also gave her some allowances to shopping. Among three sistas, she is the closest to me, in terms of talking topics and preferences in things. Now she was back and I am alone again. :~(

There are some pictures to share.

*whisper* people said we don't look like 8 years age gap difference :D

思想简单

2009-06-06T00:07:00.005+08:00

有时候看了友人们的博客，很羡慕他们能把情绪思想表达在文字上。

我不会深入思量,了解我的情绪。
吃到好吃的食物，我不会怎样去形容它有多美味.
看到美丽的风景，我也不会怎样去表达。
感觉到伤感或感触，除了流泪也不会七情六欲的一字一字表达或做情绪思考。

是我思想简单，还是我头脑无法思考。
有时候想，应该是我的文法，词汇不好。
有时候想，应该也是我的表达能力很差。
总而言之, 我就是不会。
渐渐的，发现自己很渺茫，很笨，很笨的活在这社会上。

绑手绑脚

2009-06-05T11:08:00.002+08:00

三个星期前，中国又决定 block 了 blogspot。无所事事的我，读博客，写博客已是我每天的工作，真的是晴天霹雳。还好，贵人 - 晓慧相助，让我重见天日。
这三个星期，上网好像被绑手绑脚，除了 facebook 和 e-mail，哪里也不能去，非常懊恼！！
原来人失去自由，是非常痛苦。原来人做错事，囚禁应该是最好的处罚。

我回来啦！！！！

2009-06-04T23:02:00.001+08:00

我回来啦 !!!!

I am BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

我是宅女！

2009-05-15T14:18:00.004+08:00

发觉有时候我真的可以上网一整天，写博客，玩facebook，淘一淘宝，不用出门东西全可送到家门前。科技是多么美妙的东西，我也变了做宅女。

其实现在天气都很好，还来不及享受春天的气氛，听说现在已经入夏。到了周末，俱乐部的人造沙滩都会有很多人开始“晒太阳”，孩子们的戏水玩乐的笑声都可以传到我家窗前。我的三点式应该可以出场了，哈哈！

回来了一星期，老娘休息够了。有高人指点，我应该搜集一些“气”在家，旺一旺我的找工运和好运。下星期我很空闲，需要出门找一找高人指定的物品。我来了！宅女要出巡了！

五月天

2009-05-12T13:47:00.006+08:00

五月的天，我还是期待。

烧饭，淘宝，美容，瑜伽，上网，玩任天堂，做家务，去菜市，我想都是很多人梦寐以求的日常生活吧。所谓的“马死落地走”，其实人的适应能力是很强的，半年前还十分抗拒，到现在我已不知不觉中，融化进无所事事的世界里。

我只是休息半年而已，我想已经够了。

我真的很怕我再也提不起劲，我很怕被社会淘汰，我很怕我跟不上朋友的步伐，但我还是没办法找到出发点。有谁能告诉我，它在哪里？

Lomantic Chicken Rice Dinner

2009-05-12T12:55:00.006+08:00

I have been eyeing on this Ohbin's recipe on Hainanese Chicken Rice for quite sometimes but don't have time to try. Since I just came back from my home trip and have been refreshed without 2 weeks cooking, I decided to give a try and we had a "lomantic" chicken rice dinner for the actual date of our registration anniversary. :D

Since just two of us, I bought two drumsticks for the meal. Based on Ohbin's recipe, I actually boiled the chicken, then soaked into cold water and it turned out to be quite nice, neither undercook or "old". For the chicken rice, it's a little bit less aroma perhaps not enough garlic and onion as well as oil (I put not much oil to fry it). I also boiled an ABC soup which is my all time favourite.

Chew Chin only gave me 7 marks out of 10 because I've yet to learn how to prepare the chicken rice chili sauce. Duhh......
Yes, I need a full set of meal including the must have sauces to impress him.

M on the Bund

2009-05-11T10:37:00.005+08:00

I was bugging Chew Chin to bring me to Jean Georges, however, after surveyed and looked at the average pricing of RMB600 per person, he offered to bring me to M on the Bund for brunch. This is our second time to go M on the Bund. The first was with his friends when they visited us last year and we had our New year Eve dinner. It was a pleasant dinner however due to New Year Eve crowd, they only offered limited courses.

Yesterday, we re-visited the restaurant and this time is a weekend brunch. There is a balcony outside where you can you sit down and enjoy the panoramic view from the Bund to Pudong and you must make reservation for that in order to get a good seat. However, it's not highly recommend for brunch as the sun is actually sit on top of your head and summer in Shanghai is not a joke. They offer high tea for weekend as well, perhaps can have a try next time and I think the weather will be just nice after 3.

The brunch menu comes with some selections. You can choose a 2 courses with cocktail and "limitless" tea or coffee for RMB218 per person or 3 courses for RMB258 per person. Can have a guess on what we ordered from the pictures.

I ordered a starter and main course and the portions were too big until I was too full to get my all the time favourite - dessert :~(. I was asking Chew Chin whether am I a fool if next time I am going to order a starter and a dessert :P.

You must be wondering why we suddenly indulged ourselves for the fine dine. Yeah, just to celebrate our first year registration anniversary which falls on 11 May :D.

沉重

2009-04-29T23:08:00.009+08:00

回到家乡了，但有点忙。一回到家，老爸竟然叫我拿他的公事包去医院；见了他，竟然一一交待我办事。是好事，因为我可以让老爸信任；是坏事，是否老爸身旁没有能让他交待的人。

其实我不是一个称职的女儿。妹妹每晚都去医院陪老爸，如果我在，是不是有这种能耐。老爸希望女儿们都在身旁，可是我早早就计划逃之夭夭。孩子当中，我应该是最不贴心一个，在外闯荡徘徊，都不愿回家。回了家三年，嫁了又和夫君远走高飞。呜呼哀哉。。。。。。

做孩子有点沉重，做父母也太沉重了吧。竟然现在做了不称职的孩子，我做父母？！！？，算了吧！

人家说到北京游玩要去吸收一些气。。。。。。

去故宫，收正气；
去长城，收霸气；
去十三陵，收灵气；
去颐和园，收财气；
去恭王府（和珅的宅邸），收福气。

希望如此，重要的是，和重要的人一起，家人朋友，快乐，平安，健康！

*不过，在中国旅行，人气旺，而肯定会受气！！！！

Hiccups before departure

2009-04-16T21:10:00.018+08:00

My flight to Beijing was delayed due to foggy weather. Some flights were canceled on the previous night and when we reached the airport the following morning around 7.30am, the departure hall was full of people and all flights had been delayed to further notice. The arrival hall was totally cleared as no landing flights at all for about 3-4 hours as well as departure flights.

Our flight had been delayed about 7 hours. I guess that day Pudong Airport was in havoc because they need to re-arrange the delayed flights and also the normal scheduled flights.

First hiccup : Barriers in zigzag line can be break though. One zigzag line in queue can actually split into various lines and line directly to the counters. Brrhhhh TIC ----> This is China.

Second hiccup : Our same gate "partner", Wenzhou flight was landed in Hongjiao Airport and passengers were asked to go there by bus provided by airline. People started to questioning:

我们人在这里，为什么飞机去虹矫? (All passangers are here, why the plane went to Hongjiao?) - They really don't understand why the plane cannot board or just don't want to understand??!!??

叫你们的领导来，你不能做主，你给我滚！(Ask your management to come, if you can't have a say, just go!) *经理来了* 你能不能做主，如果不能，也给我滚！(*The manager came* If you can't have a say, you also GO! I want to see your top management) - speechless

飞机是死的，人是活的，就不能安排飞机过来，为什么我们要过去？(Literally saying, plane is dead object, human is active, you can make arrangement, why we have to go?) - even speechless
Third hiccup : Finally, we got in our plane, however still need to wait for our time slot to fly. People get frustrated and started to stand up and scold. The pilot actually had to come out and talked to those people. Some good ones that commented by those people:

为什么要等这样久？都已经好了，还不能飞？（Why we can't fly now since we already ready?) - Again, they don't understand and just simply don't want to understand why the plane needs to wait !

这样久，我不要飞了，我要退票，退票！！！ (I don't want to wait anymore, I don't want to fly, I want refund, I want to get down!!!!) - huh, you are already on board

It's a true experience to see how these people scolding and beyond words to describe it. You need a very high EQ to handle those locals. Really tough to answer those questions and seriously need you to think OUT of the box.

Back from Beijing Trip

2009-04-16T12:12:00.004+08:00

I am back from Beijing trip. Totally exhausted and tired. It was a great trip overall and I am so busy now.
Busy to unpack and do the laundry.
Busy to get enough rest for my tiring legs and body.
Busy to upload my photos and share my trip.
Busy to check facebook and other friends' status when I was away.
Busy to read blogs and update my blog.
Busy to refill my fridge and grocery.
Busy to do visiting to my cousin's family.
Busy to apply jobs again.
Busy to buy things from Taobao for friends and myself.
Most importantly, busy to pack again for my trip back to hometown end of this MONTH.
Hip hip horay....... :D

Those who know me well would definitely know that I love food with black soya sauce. The darker the better ! FYI, there isn't any store selling the black soya sauce in Shanghai. I was looking high and low from Walmart, Lotus, Carrefour to Citishop, and no sign at all. Thus, I managed to bring back a bottle when my last trip back for CNY and I am so glad with it. :D

Here my favourite dish with black soya sauce, Or Bak w ith Potatoes , oishi !!!!

孙中山故居访

2009-04-09T15:10:00.005+08:00

上回去了宋庆龄故居，这次也应该去她的伟人丈夫，孙中山故居。友人的阿公曾经是前国名党和三民主义青年团党员。阿公也在槟城创办了孙中山博物院，因为经费问题，博物院还没正式开幕，不过也会开放给有兴趣的公众。友人来到了上海，去了孙中山故居，也应该照个相给阿公看一看。故居里都告诉我们孙中山的革命历史，很佩服这伟人的远见在于发展中国内地的交通线和主要的经济概念。

不过，老实说，比较吸引我们的是那美丽的后院，人也寥寥无几，我们都很开心的轮流拍照， bollywood 一番，哈。。。。。。

Wishes From Far Away Land

2009-04-09T14:23:00.012+08:00

I have some friends who always send postcards while they travel and I am always lucky to be one of the recipients. I just received one postcard from Mexico the day before and so excited. I thought it was the recent trip that my friend went and was wondering why this time the postcard arrived so fast. Manatahu, when I read the content, it's written "......I hope this postcard arrives before CNY and Gong Xi FaCai......" I was like errr errrr, OK.

Apparently, there are always delay in mail via postcards. I received a postcard from Malaysia which took one month and another one from Tanzania and it took about three months. Why is it taking so long for postcard to arrive? I think they must have detour to "Holland" then only come to Shanghai.

外卖来了

2009-04-07T21:42:00.003+08:00

可怜大少爷每晚都很迟吃晚餐，今天决定送个外卖去他公司。
为了坐那已包在屋租的免费班车（刚好会停在大少爷公司附近，每10分钟一趟），我必须在六点送去，赶在七点前最后班车。那只好随随便便来个番茄蛋，炒个长豆和猪柳青椒海鲜酱。还可以吧？

我干儿子病了，咳了一个月，细菌感染，得了肺炎，需住院五天。

我干儿子阿爸照顾他儿子，在医院得到病毒袭击，患了手足口病。

我干儿子阿妈怀孕八个月，做银行外汇，因金融风暴工作压力增加，有早产倾向，需多休息。
现在儿子病了，丈夫隔离，自己也因为跟丈夫有接触，也染了手足口病。

三口目前分别隔离。

我远在他乡，除了心疼，担心，真的不知所措。只能希望细菌病毒快快走开，听到吗？

快走开！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！

Mexican Canai Burrito

2009-03-26T12:33:00.005+08:00

Yesterday, we had a Mexican Canai Burrito Night. Yipa yipa angkeleh......

My friend recommended me a grocery shop in Citibank Building, name CitiShop. Citishop sells a lot of imported goods especially western goodies. While I was checking out their things, found out this burrito seasoning mix. Since I have bought frozen "roti canai" last week, thus decided to have mixed culture combination. During evening time, I happily called Chew Chin and told him tonight to be back earlier as I cook "ho liao". Haha, actually he is just a white mice of mine.

It's pretty easy. Stir fried the chicken strips with onion, pour in the mixed seasoning with water. Let it boils around 10 minutes and till the sauce is thicken. I have bought some frozen potato wedges as well, just put it in the oven for 25 minutes, sprinkles some cheese on top. Dinner is served!

怎么了

2009-03-26T11:31:00.005+08:00

昨夜，迟迟不能入睡，一整晚，似睡又似醒，迷迷糊糊。
好几个夜晚，都被恶梦吓醒，又被突然的一身热惊醒，怎么了？
一向 light sleep 的我，本来每次因为大少爷的鼻鼾声而半夜会醒，通常都会摇一摇他，昨夜还为了大少爷的沉沉呼吸声而我无法入眠，难道叫他不用呼吸？无法让自己在入眠，竟然凌晨4点多起来看电视。#%#*#*
看到窗外一丝的曙光，好像有点睡意，就让自己在再试睡吧。。。。。。
今早无法起身准备早餐，直睡到 10点多。。。。。。
到底是怎么了？

Kampate!!

2009-03-25T09:05:00.003+08:00

It's been nearly 5 months and I am still UNPRODUCTIVE. Thus, I've been searching around for short courses and found out Japanese and Korean learning are quite popular here. After much consideration and "courage" (yeah, study needs courage!), I signed up a short course to learn basic Japanese.
From this Friday onwards, I will be attending class on every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 6.30pm to 9.30pm for around three months. As per agreed, they let me to suspense my course if I am away for long period or replace to any class if I skip my initial class. Hehe, this is my main concern. O_O

Will I continue for my job searching? Frankly, I don't see my chance to get one. Just let's see and wait for my CALL.

到处留情

2009-03-23T09:58:00.004+08:00

某年某月的某一天，我手上多了一系列的文章，似诗也似词曲。
甲友人兴致勃勃交给我，她说她已寄了一份给唱片公司，是滚石吧，她让我保留了复印本。
再某年某月的某一天，我又多了一系列。如没有错，那应该是蓝本。
如还没有错，这些文章应该还在我老家，如更加没有错，有些还在夫家，我隐约记得我看过。
看了乙友人的博客，哈，原来她也捎了不少信给乙友人，哈，到处留情。。。。。。

以前科技没有那么发达，都是书信来往，如果是我这年代的人，家里应该会有不少旧信件。我家也有不少“信”，要收又好像有点麻烦，要扔又好像很浪费，有点懊恼，所以至今还躺在老家橱里。。。。。。

头发：像翻卷的海浪，显得活泼有个性，点明了吉祥物出生地的区域特征和生命来源。
脸部：卡通化的简约表情，友好而充满自信。
眼睛：大大、蓝色：充满包容性、想象力，象征充满发展希望和潜力的中国。
身体：圆润的身体，展示着和谐生活的美好感受，可爱而俏皮。
拳头：翘起拇指，是对全世界朋友的赞许和欢迎。
大脚：稳固地站立在地面上，成为热情张开的双臂的有力支撑，预示中国有能力、有决心办好世博会。

“人”字互相支撑的结构也揭示了美好生活要靠你我共创的理念。只有全世界的“人”相互支撑，人与自然、人与社会、人与人之间和谐相处，这样的城市才会让生活更加美好。

“人”字创意造型依靠上海世博会的传播平台，必将成为中国上海世博会的吉祥符号和文化标志。（摘文自中国2010年上海世界博览会官方网站）

3 things

2009-03-20T15:39:00.006+08:00

There are always 3 things that inevitable to be part of my daily life.

First is TV. Whenever I am home alone, I will switch on the TV even I am not watching it. Perhaps I just don't want to be too quiet and lonely at home.

Second is water heater. I just can't live without it. I used to shower with hot water in Malaysia no matter how hot the weather is. Bascially, I shower twice a day and wash my hair everyday. People said the summer in Shanghai is humid and heat you the utmost. Maybe I get the chance to take cold shower. Let's see.

Third is washing machine. Well, it's just very simple because I don't like to wash clothes and basically I throw everything into the washing machine. O_o

Recently, I found out a new type of washing machine in market and I am totally fall in love with that :P. My friend said I am crazy. Due to new release, it's still very expensive and costs around RMB7,899.... (the picture besides)

Can you trace it in Malaysia or Singapore for this type of washing machine?

何时再上战场？

2009-03-16T10:54:00.005+08:00

今天整理了衣橱，搬了那些上班, 比较 formal 的衣服出来。还记得衣服刚运来时，开开心心的把它们挂上，现在已四个月了，英雄无用武之地，放在衣橱里霸了空间，也多了一尘灰，那只好收起来，放去冷藏橱，有待一日再见光明。

昨晚，大少爷突然问了我，我无所事事，每天游荡，会不会出心理问题？纳闷，自闭，忧郁之类。
以前看到了衣服鞋子包包，都会想买，现在看了，只会想等找到工，才来买，有自己的钱，花了也理直气壮，那久而久之，失去了我人生快乐时光，应该会纳闷，。
五天工作日，大少爷通常很夜才回来，除掉睡觉时间，如果我没出门，讲话和见到人的时间，应该没超过3小时，应该会自闭。
你有工作，你不愿做或你放长假和像我这样找不到工，其实在心理上，有大大的不同。会觉得，我好像很差，feel like unwanted and useless，没有主要的生活目标，加上纳闷，自闭，应该会忧郁。

很多人都说非常羡慕我，不用工作。我也很羡慕他们，有工作。看人家的往往都比自己好，人就是这样。还好，非常感谢发明 internet 的伟人，我还可以上上网，和友人聊天，发发牢骚。还好，大少爷还会说，你没有“工”，可是有“公”。

在这经济不景气的非常时期，每份理想的工都超过500个投递者，有些还多过1000个，我应该收拾期望找到工的心情。我还要抽起在身上习惯吃喝玩乐的懒虫，，开始往新的方向出发。

努力的铭记

2009-03-12T09:59:00.003+08:00

我已经很努力，很努力，时时刻刻告诉自己了。
我想，是时候重组我的思想及人生方向。

我的海南晚餐

2009-03-11T21:36:00.004+08:00

家婆问，要煮加喱鸡还是鸡饭？当然是鸡饭啦！
那，要烧鸡还是白斩鸡？白斩鸡好！（因为我喜欢吃。。。。。。）

杭州西溪湿地梅花

2009-03-09T21:31:00.006+08:00

周末去了杭州一趟，来了将近四个月，还是第一次外出上海。选了一团去西溪湿地公园（湿地= wetlands) 看梅花。怎知人还多过花， “非诚勿扰“ 也是在那里拍摄。

我是个花痴，赏花也很开心，我还要看桃花，樱花，牡丹花。。。。。。

宋庆龄故居访

2009-03-06T12:03:00.004+08:00

托朋友的福，让我有机会去了宋庆龄故居纪念馆。其实，我对中国历史有点白痴，从三国演义时代，有哪几个朝代，什么朝代有什么皇帝都不是很清楚，唐宋明清，康熙乾隆，都是在戏里知道。还好，这里的节目有时会播历史人物介绍，刚好这个星期是宋家故事，也让我知道了宋家背景。又刚好去了宋庆龄故居，才知道宋庆龄故人的伟大。纪念馆里有历史介绍，宋庆龄故人对国家的贡献，图片，录影以及生活的点点滴滴，还可以访她的故居和生活地方。故居里有一片漂亮的花园，鸟语花香。虽然书是说靠近衡山路地铁站，但我们都走了好远，差不多1km，入门票是RMB20。有兴趣者，不妨一游。

First PK visit

2009-03-06T10:00:00.009+08:00

Ha! Kim Hooi, my first PK friend who came and visited me in Shanghai. She and her boyfriend joined tour and extended 3 day stays in Shanghai. However, they came at the wrong timing as it's still very cold in Shanghai, raining and gloomy weather. Look at the white penguin !

Yesterday, we had our dinner at a restaurant called 滴水洞, 湖南湘菜馆。Ha! See our happy faces for the meet up.

Dare to Eat?

2009-03-05T23:40:00.005+08:00

Look at the last row of English description. Do you dare to order if you don't know Mandarin?

才两天

2009-03-03T22:34:00.002+08:00

才两天，每天三餐温饱，不，非常饱！
才两天，原来有妈妈在家里是万能的，尤其是在厨房！
才两天，我觉得我肥了, 不, 应该是肥了，坐下来，多了一圈肉！

鹿港小镇的肉粽

2009-03-02T11:25:00.006+08:00

我家大少爷一口气在鹿港小镇买了十粒台式肉粽，在店里吃RMB16一个, 外带只是RMB10，买十粒并多送甜辣酱。大少爷是 typical Malaysian stomach，早餐是咸口味，不能天天面包，麦片，pancake, cereals；最好来个炒米粉，汤面，nasi lemak, roti canai，但我无能为力。那肉粽就是他的早餐。

还好，家婆，家翁来了，应该可以两天搞惦那十粒台式肉粽，不然肥死我了。

还好，家婆来了，至少两个星期不用为大少爷准备早餐伤脑筋。

First Experience of Maglev

2009-03-02T10:52:00.008+08:00

MAGLEV, or magnetic levitation, is a system of transportation that suspends, guides and propels vehicles, predominantly trains, using levitation from a very large number of magnets for lift and propulsion. Shanghai Maglev train is the first commercial high speed maglev line in the world. I've been traveled back for two times but still didn't get to try on it. It is because maglev passengers are more suitable for those who travel light and alone due to the inconvenient location and price. As the train will stop at the Longyang terminus, at Pudong then from there you will either transfer to use subway or take cab to your destination, vice versa and it's still quite a distance from the city centre. One way pricing of Maglev is RMB50. The advantage of the maglev is it only take approximately 8 minutes to reach airport from Longyang terminus (by road is around 45 minutes, i guess) and the maximum speed reaches 431 km/h.

A "sua gu" like me when I kept taking the speed photos, there were a few starring eyes. Really sumimaseh.....

天鹅湖

2009-02-27T15:20:00.004+08:00

在今年年初，因大少爷的友人到访，因刚好有俄罗斯国立芭蕾歌剧院芭蕾舞团在上海大剧院演出天鹅湖，就约了一起去看。本来预算门票最贵只买到RMB380，怎知好位子，便宜的都卖完了，友人也就帮我们买了两张RMB680的门票，哇塞，真的好贵!

说真的，看完以后，有点大失所望，好像被欺骗的感觉。以为会有交响乐团在旁，可是音乐是播放的；虽然芭蕾舞团跳得很好，但故事情节有点乏闷，间中大少爷和友人差点要被周爷爷叫去下棋了。在观赏中，是不可以拍照的，在黑暗中拿起手机或camera可以被发觉到的，工作人员要不停的将 laser light 照着那些人，叫他们停止，可是有些人就是没教养，有些还要重复两三次，真的 @#*&￥· !!

不过，我想我应该不会再看芭蕾舞了，还是比较喜欢 musical type，有跳舞，有唱歌那些。
