Funny people

Funny people at the building that I am working at

Chauffeur

He is working as the driver of my building management CEO. However, practically I see him sitting in the lobby for almost every time I walked past. (Heard that he is paid quite well).

 

Neighbor A

She likes to comment “你没有梳头发啊?”  I am not really close to her, just chat a bit when met. Then she can just comment this out of the blue. Hee though I know my hair is forever messy.

 

Neighbor B

Every time I see her, she is combing her hair forever. Her hair is very long, straight and tidy. I don’t know why she need such a long time to appreciate herself in the mirror.

 

Neighbor C

She never smiles at any people or neighbor. She likes to sing in the toilet.

 

Stranger lady

She likes to come to my level’s toilet to do big business. The building has 2 toilets at each level, 1 at left & 1 at right side. I belong to the right side of the building. Aiya I am a very KPO person, so I know all the people at my side of the level & I can be sure that she is not from the side of my level. After her business, she likes to comb her hair for real long and then touch up her make up.

 

Maintenance guy

We have a common “pantry area” outside the toilet for all the tenants from my side and staffs of the building to share. People wash their cups, water bottle, cloths there. This particular guy washes his bowl, fruits there. Sometime he will add a bit of washing his face & clearing his throat at this basin as well. Sounds disgusting right, there is one more ultimate ok. When I was walking out of the toilet last Friday, I hared someone scrubbing something at the basin. As per my KPOness, I went over to find out. There I found him scrubbing his stuff, so out of curiosity; I asked what he was scrubbing. Aiyo, he said: “I am washing my SOCKS.”

Goodness!! Help me!!!!!

play & swim

bag What a fun Sunday!

 

With XX, mummy, Sky & our dear baby Ryan to his 1st experience – swimming in Dog pool!

 

Before going to the Pet mega mart, we went to Pet Movers. There is this field where dogs are unleashed & get to run around freely.

Many people will bring their dogs and “make friend”.

Our dear Ryan is so happy, it has been awhile since he go around making furry friends. (not including the daily walks by mummy)

p1p2

After half an hour of making friend session, we decided to change our venue to U Petgamart – the dog swimming pool (it seems like going to rain).

When we reached there, there are already many big dogs jumping in & out of the pool.

But our dear Ryan……is scare of water.

When we 1st put him in, he struggled like hell. He tried to climb out of the water almost immediately after going in.

After he finally managed to come out, he chased after other dogs.

But the funny thing was, he accidently fall into the pool while chasing other dogs. (think he got a shock from this)

We did not stop trying to put him back into the pool.

After awhile, he seems to be calmer, though he still tries to find way out.

During his ample laps of swimming, there is one big dog (think is a golden) swimming in opposite direction of Ryan.

The big dog is swimming / walking vigorously in the pool & he almost swam / pressed over our poor Ryan.

All of us got a shock, we are afraid that Ryan will get drown.

Hee but lucky our Ryan is a strong & clever boy.

Overall it was a great experience. We will still bring Ryan there even though he doesn’t seem to like swimming.

It is a great exercise for him, from the way he eats, if he don’t exercise, he will be overweight soon.

Brad meet up with Jennifer

I heard a very interesting discussion on air FM93.3 Thursday morning. It is host by Cruz Teng & Jia Hui. I really enjoy the morning session with both of their presence.

 

The discussion was about Brad Pitt meet up with his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston to pour out his unhappiness emotion with Angelina Jolie. The DJs are asking the listeners to share their experience of their ex-s contacting them.

 

There is one *#@# story: one lady shared that her ex-boyfriend asked her out for a dinner. During the dinner, the ex keeps complaining about his present girlfriend and emphasize on how happy he used to be when he was with the lady. This is not all, the ex still make himself drunk (maybe is actting drunk) and try to earn sympathy from the lady.

But the final straw is that he even asked the lady “CAN YOU COME TO MY HOUSE AND ACCOMPANY ME FOR THE NIGHT?”

Aiyo how thick-skin can anyone be!!

 

When I heard this ex-s discussion, one of my ex come across my mind. Don’t worry, he is not like the male actor of the above story.

It is just that we are not in contact for years and he just called me suddenly to share with me about the issues he had with his girlfriend. I tried my best to be the listening ears and gave him whatever advise or solutions when he asked. Then the next day, he called up again to ask me for solutions. And this went on for 2 more days (with the same issues). I tried not to answer my mobile when he called or reply his sms. Guess what, he called my place. I had to ask my sister to say that I went to bed. The next day, he called again. Finally, I couldn’t stand it anymore & tell him off. I asked him not to contact me anymore. I am so pissed off because he keep telling me the same thing and he is very INCONSIDERATE. He called at late nights or in the middle of the night. Hey, I need to work the next day & I am no longer his girlfriend (I am not obligated to chat with him regardless of time). I had deleted all his numbers & hopefully I will not get to meet him by chance. I will not know how to react. Maybe I will just pretend not to see him and walk straight off.

 

What is over is over; just leave the nice memories will be much better.

 

Don’t you think so?

retiring @ 30

I really don’t feel like working.

I have been asking myself this question: “Will my dream of retiring at 30 comes true?”

I am only left with 3 more years to 30, will I be able to catch up with it?

Sky asked me before: “What have you done to ensure that you are able to retire at 30?”

This is my reply to him: “Aiyah, find a golden tortoise lor. Haha if like now cannot find one, rely on you lor.”

 

Human beings are never satisfy, regardless to what they already have or owned.

Some people target for a branded bag, they worked real hard for it.

At last, they owned one.

Then again, they fall in love with a second one, the “cycle” start all over again.

 

Well this is life ya.

If I really wanted to retire at 30, I should really save up, spend lesser (much much lesser),

stop buying stuffs, stop going for luxury meal (and start loving food courts, hawker centre) etc…..

I don’t think I can even survive in this manner, “killing” me will be a better option.

 baby

Haha, I think there goes my dream….unless I strike Toto tonight.

Sister, sister not?

One of my closest friend is getting married in 3 weeks time, I felt so happy for her.

Due to some superstitious stuff (my grandma passed away less than 3 months before her wedding will “clash”), I am unable to be her “sister” of her wedding.

Hmm I feel kinda sad initially, I am looking so forward since I knew her wedding date.

There are too many restrictions from her parents.

I mean I don’t blame them. Every parent wants the best for their children no matter what.

Can you imagine, I can’t be her sister for the day time.

I can only attend her dinner (better than nothing).

I cannot help or touch any of her stuff.

Worst, I cannot touch her wedding grown (with special reminder) which is equivalent to NO HUGS.

I wanted to hug & kiss her for her big day, but…..

 

I have been “sister” for 4 times, it was tiring.

Initial plan is to be 2 more sister for my Sec (above mentioned) & Poly classmate.

The rest is to reserve for my own sisters (40 & XX) & my beloved cousins (if they required).

If I keep do, I will never “retire”….

To me, if I want to be the sister for any “X” person, I need to feel like a “sister” to her or vice versa.

Whenever I carry out my duties as a “sister”, I will do it whole heartedly.

Be sure that my love ones can have their wedding smoothly.

If I am “forced” to do it, it will not be a good one (though I will still try my best to help).

 

Knowing you for 10 over years does not equal to close “sister”.

Whatever agreement made years ago is it still valid?

People just keep changing & both of you don’t feel like close “sister” anymore.

So do you think it is still applicable to be “sister” for each other’s wedding?

加油 my friend

These encouragements are for you! Be brave tomorrow, everything will be fine…..

 From Teacher Daisaku Ikeda –

 

Illness is not something to feel ashamed of. It is not a sign of misfortune or defeat. Suffering is the fuel of wisdom, and it opens the way to happiness. Through illness, human beings can gain insight into the meaning of life, understand its value and dignity, and strive to lead more fulfilling lives.

 

No one can better bask in summer’s balm than those who have endured winter’s bite. Similarly, it is those who have suffered through life’s darkest hours who are able to truly savor the bright dawn of happiness. The person who has transformed the worst of fate into the best of fortune is life’s champion.

 

:)
