CNY - Kusu Island Tour!

During this Chinese New Year, my family and I went to Kusu and St John Island! Hee... My family usually dont go pai nian one, so eveytime, public holidays = family bonding time. We'll go to places like zoo, bird park, sentosa and this time, Kusu and St John Island! Hee.. I dont think i'd ever been to these 2 islands, not in my memory, so i'm actually really excited to go..

We brought lunch over, since bro say there no foodcourt or shops one. Truth is, the 2 islands really sells nothing. But the place is beautiful.. Both places are now owned by Sentosa Group and typical of Sentosa, they'd beautify both islands to be garden like. Along the beaches are nice and clean grass and shelthers... Kusu is very small only, i think about 1 football field big, St John is slightly bigger.
Kusu Island (Gui Yu) is an island shaped like a turtle. Hence, many people like to bring their oversize terrapins and abandon them on the island as if the terrapins will feel happier there... Picture below is a pond filled with terrapins and some tortoises... We fed the little animals like white flowers found nearby.This is a part of St John island, linking St John to another nearby island name Lasage or something like that. Cant remember the island name...
Conclusion is, if you'd never been to these island, it's quite a trip worth going. Wont take you more than 1 day to finish walking these 2 islands, but it's a good place to picnic and play frisbee!

Geok Swan's Farewell...

Sorry for not posting up this blog earlier. It seems like i'd vacant this blog for sometime already and i'm wondering if my friends still read it. Paiseh paiseh...

Here are some photos of my colleagues and as the title suggested, Geok Swan is leaving us... Saw me in the photo below? Geok Swan is the one standing on my right, wearing white (ok, i know both girls wears white, the shorter one k?) She's been working with NLB for 8yrs + already... The decision to leave NLB was a very painful one, but, health is priceless, she decided to leave because she couldnt take the stress anymore.
Geok Swan and Sandy... Sandy is really sad as she was quite close to Geok Swan...
So on top of running my usual events, (just did a mass health screening exercise for all NLB staff, over 600 signed up!) i'm trying very hard to learn payroll now. Now then i know, it's not as easy as what people think. You think payroll = click a 'pay confirmed' button and system will auto pay staff? Haha... If only life is this way... Luckily i got a temp boy to help me out now, he's been really hardworking and efficiency. Relief me from a lot of my events work so that i can concentrate on my new workload...

Valentine's Day
If you're interested to know what Zengjia gave me for V day.. Ta-dah!

A stalk of rose with our picture imprinted on it. He got someone else to do it of course. And he also made sushi and bring it over for me as lunch. Hee.. Sweet huh?

I'm back...

It's been a month since i last blogged. Opps.. Had been lazy throughout the month! Quite a few things had happened. First is house painting, Dad say our house really need a good panting le. So our house went through massive painting, whole house painted. Windows, ceilings, every piece of wall (except storeroom). Can imagine how messy my house is after paintng? Haha.. Like moving house like that, we packed everything then unpack everything again after painting.

Luckily don need me to paint, my dad got a painter to paint the house. Else, take 1 week leave also cannot finish painting... Haha.. We throw away a lot of stuff, kind of like spring clean. Then went Ikea, bought some furniture. Now still in the midst of converting my 2nd living room to study room.

Then my boss, Chee Bee left NLB. Went to eat a farewell lunch at Ding Tai Fung Raffles City. Haha... 14 people lor.. We tried a lot of food there, coz share share mah. So now i know Ding Tai Fung's menu well le... Can part-time waitress there already.. Haha... I intend to upload Chee Bee's last day photo but stupid blogspot don allow me!!! Donnoe how many times i'd tried and tried to upload and still failed. Damn...

Don like me izzit? I switch to multiply lah! ok. don bother about me.. Let's continue..

Show you WeiLin's latest handicraft piece...

Cute? Made out of crystals and beads.... Want to see the size of it?

It's merely 1 inch (2.5cm) big! Haha.. Cute huh? You can put it as a bag accessories, hp chain or whatever... If you think she only got one design.. You are wrong!! Look at this!!

I'll find one day to learn how to make this.. Someday...

Then on 31 Jan, i went o Changi Airport to send Hong Kiat off. I told zengjia that i'll miss Hong Kiat then stupid zengjia say 'You'll miss hong kiat as a friend or as a mahjong khaki?' Damn it.. How can he like that say? Hong Kiat, you must believe me k? Though i miss you as a mahjong khaki but i also miss you as a friend k? *cross my finger...

Valentine's Day and Chinese New Year is coming... Beng asked me for V day ideas, well, the truth is, i got none. Dont think i'm into celebratng V day (well, i'm never such a peron anyway), since zengjia will be busy with school, test and all, better don celebrate V day.

I cant stand the weather recently. Freaking cold. If all the cold wind can be used to generate electricity, i bet we can all save a lot of money. It's so cold and strong! This global warming effect is really gettng into our lives.. Did you read the newspapers? Islands ar disappearing, millions of lives are being affected or endangered. According to news, 1/4 of the world's Carbon Dioxide was produced by U.S. The U.S. president admitted that but say that they wont stop it coz stopping it will cost them to lose donnoe-how-many millions. When i heard this news, i'm so so furious. There are people out losing their homes/livelihood due to the effect of global warming and all you care is the money you're going to lose? xyz!@#$$
