News from Helios!

The arrival of Gisele Lee! Ah....unique name for his kid again....Vianne and Gisele...nice!

Think I should meet him sometime soon. Have not seen him for the longest time now. Should do it before Samantha gives birth too! Looks like everyone is contributing to the usage of country space...

Now I wonder what DVDs did I tell him to help me buy.........I seem to be asking a million people to help and I never remember.....hope it is not something that I already have!

Free Lunch!

Woah! It seems that they pay for all our lunches! hiak hiak hiak hiak

Frankfurt

Today began the five day course on working using the route planning software. It's a good thing that I was using it for a while before I came for the course. It is definitely not something for a brand new beginner! Pretty tough to understand everything until I start to practise more on it. Good thing there is no exam for this. I wonder if I will pass!!! That would come for the course from mid July. Looks like I really got to buck up and study quite a bit...

Class of seven people. That is quite good actually. The smaller the class, the easier to concentrate. At least the instructor do not have to go around answering each and every single question. Two from Holland, two from Doha and two others from Croatia. Seems quite an international mix. Considering that they are working at those places, not necessary from that country itself.

I was surprised that the lady from Croatia actually flew as a stewardess for some time! That explains the looks (and sitting beside me!) wahahaha......how am I supposed to concentrate? But well, it was nice to see that companies do allow people to move around and try the different areas though.

Contemplating whether to subscribe to internet. Half guessing that it will become an issue when it comes to claims, though it should never have been (well, at least never used to be)... Things are so different these days... Really cannot judge a person by their cover... How true...

Compliment or Criticism

"You chose to help others..."

Used to compliment and criticize me in the same conversation. That's just the way it is as far as where this conversation was going. Nowhere.......as expected.

But well, there are better things in life.

I finally found the reason for living

It's in giving every part of my heart to Him

In all that I do, every word that I say

I'll be giving my heart just for Him, for Him!

Status Change

Just back from medical review at unit medical centre. Mandatory to have a medical review for referral to medical board. It was over in 5 minutes. I will be medical boarded in absence sometime in July.

Recommended status : E1L9

I would gladly be status A to remove the cause though...

Tonsilitis or Dengue?

Started at 3+am on Monday. Still went to work for the full day. Sometimes you just wanna try to do a little more. Had a good time relaxing on the evening. Came home and measured 38.1 degrees. Great, now I have high fever.

Still went to work this morning. Eyes were burning, head was bursting and body was breaking. Would see the doctor in a while, and then I was called in to complete the appraisal. Did raise one or two sentences on my views and listened to his side of the story. Heard some unbelievable things for the first time in my life. Then I knew there was no point proceeding. Just nodding to everything that was said and left the room. I will ask myself if I am still happy here at the end of August/September.

Went to see doctor after. Still measuring 38.1 degrees! Argh! Glands swollen, tonsils swollen, viral infection. If this does not subside by Thursday morning, I have to go back for a review. If the tonsils develop pus (gross), then I have tonsilitis. If I still have fever, then I need a blood test to check for dengue.

I seem to get the full works these days..............

Words of Wisdom from the Barber

Always loved shorter hair. So much cooler and definitely easier to maintain. For a person with no clue on how to style his hair, this is the easiest.

For some reason, the barber decided to share his words of wisdom to me today.

*haircut complete*

*remove cover sheet*

Barber:

Next time, you should keep your moustache and not shave.

Prawnkid:

Heh. Why?

Barber:

You look too young lah.

Prawnkid:

Oh....look young good mah (everyone says that)...

Barber:

Wait girl molest you ah...

*tickle myself to fake laugh*

Prawnkid:

...

Bee Gees Come Back Tour...................................you win again....so many times......

Confrontation - Part 1

Only had time for part 1. Just as expected, nothing he can do about the system. Therefore, conformance opted.

Confirmed. Pretty clueless about what I do.

This is the year of spamming.

Slacker....

Dun understand how there can be such slackers.....I know of people who procrastinate or inefficient or just unable to comprehend and of coz those who are much better than me.......but to see slackers.....I think they really need to buck up......I'm amazed at how they just slack through......

I admit that I choose to slack over weekends or whenever I have free time. But that is like a choice to chill and relax.....but some people just give you the feeling that they have been pampered all their lives.....if I see people feeding them, I think I will freak out. That would be ultimate slacker of the millenium.

Shrek 3

Just came back from watching Shrek 3 with Yiling. It was so-so only, nothing much to crave about.

Good thing that I caught the Transformers trailer again. Nice. A pity that they might have to change some of the machines due to practicality of building them though.

Should sleep soon. Badminton tomorrow. Something to look forward to after office hours :o)

Hula Girls

I went for another "arty" show again! This time it is Hula Girls showing in Picturehouse. This one is quite good though. Now looking for a particular song in the soundtrack...

This show does portray how mindsets can be changed. Good one.

Thailand?

For some miscommunication, I was in office today! Could actually have joined the Bangkok trip. Responded to my appraisal since I was in office. It's going to be one big confrontation one week from now.

Time to look for a chef...

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

If this was the version showed in Singapore, then I don't mind watching it live at the studio for every single episode!

"Is that your final answer?"

Pirates Of The Carribbean

Pirates Of The Carribbean. Just finished part one tonight. Tomorrow night will be part two. Complete with the part three movie on Wednesday night. Hee...

Great Singapore Sale

The Great Singapore Sale is back (again). Well, it happens every year, so what is so great about it? Just excuses for the shops to have sales, and most importantly excuses for the shoppers to shop. But well, whichever works...

I tried one after another or pants, shirt, pants, berms, pants and ended up with no purchase. Argh.....wonder it is so tough for me to decide on what to buy these days....

Funny thing is, I had more fun throwing basketballs into hoops at the amusement centre in Bishan with AlphaRomeo instead. As usual, people are wondering why we are perspiring in an air-conditioned place :op

Party!

Finally!!!!! The party that took four years of waiting......over in one night.....

Almost got sabo-ed onstage for the games......well, at this crucial point, I must be busy talking on the phone :op

I guess now everyone is looking forward to the the Dinner & Dance...

Friends & Thoughts

Concerned for my friends. Start to think about their problems too. But is that a bit far fetched?

But yet I can't stop thinking about his or his or her or her problems....... Natural born kaypoh?

Quite happy to hear about Marijke's second kid :o)

Anna Renee Elding

nice name!

Mail Clearing Machine

112 mails. Lesser than what I expected :o)

So I worked like a mail clearing machine on the first day. Some people actually thought I was still away and were surprised that I am responding. Maybe I should put Out Of Office for the whole year hehehe

It's really so much less convenient not to be using a laptop anymore........but well, I am not supposed to be working after office hours......at least I should not be :op
