1st day at work!

Image
Well, my comp got fixed up just 10 mins before I knock off @ 4.30pm. So basically, I was reading some purchasing notes the whole day. As to why I knock off at 4.30pm, coz it's "Eat with Your Family Day"! But this wk, I can't eat dinner. Then qiqi is at camp & mummy is at wk, so practically, we nv eat tgt. haha =) And I have free lunch today as it's "Eat with Your Family Day". Warehouse's side ordered KFC & Pizza Hut. Ate a drumstick & a piece of hawalian pizza + a can of coke. It's fattening. But there's nth else to eat le. Heez =.= 26 May - 3 Jun is National Family Week. So for those who rarely spend time with family, try to at least squeeze 1 day out as ur family day ba! Happy Family-Bonding! Oh, I took some photos of my wk desk with orders from my dear. She said she wana buy things to fill up my wk desk. This is the PC that take ages to set up. In the end, we changed the PC & it only takes less than 15 mins. Look at the ro

Food Food Food!

I love to cook as much as I love to eat! And I love to try out all kind of different ways of cooking. Making nice food for ur family and love ones is great too! Research shows that couple who cooks tgt enjoy a better r/s than those who don't. That's the reason y my dear & I are so loving! (^^.) I tried b4 once, my friend's maid make it. So I decided to have a go at it myself. It's easy to do. Less than 1/2 an hr, u're done. And just leave it in the fridge for an hr. Yummy-li-cious! You can get the mixture at Cold Storage. I think it's White Winds Caramel Custard. As I suddenly have a craving for western food, I decided to prepare them on my own. Now for a close up! And I make this nice burger for b'fast. The lucky eaters are my dear & my sis - Aunt Shannon! There's picnic ham, lettuce, black pepper chicken patty & cheese! Yummy!

Confirmation of job status!

Finally after waiting for ard 2 wks, I've signed the contract with Starhub(Or rather with Kelly Services, as it's a 1yr contract). As for the position, it's purchasing assistant. Starting wk tml. Yes, weird to start wk on a Friday. But well, that's what the HR wants. haha =) And I have to wear formal to wk!! Shi'an's side dun haf to. ARGH! The only person happy abt the wk attire is my dear. Coz she alwiz say she loves to see me in formal wear. *faints* So as for what's the job scoope like, I roughly noes is to liase wif suppliers on delivery of goods, ensure the whole purchasing flow runs smoothly wif no hipcups. For more details, stay tuned! Shall update you folks after I get a hang of what my job is like. For now, wish me luck! Go Go 加油!

Oil facts(fats) to share!

Ask The Dietitian - Debbie Wong Q: My girlfriend dabs her French fries with a piece of tissue to soak up the oil. How much good does that really do? A: Dabbing French fries with tissue paper does helping soaking up some oil, but the amount of oil removed is relatively low say you remove 1 gram(gm) of fat, you only save yourself about 9 calories from the dabbing. In comparison, one medium size serving of French fries contains an average of 16 gm of fat, which provides 320 Kcal of energy. This is equivalent to about 1/5 of the total energy requirement a day. Therefore it is recommended to reduce the amount of fries you eat on a whole. So, my friends who dab their fries may wana reconsider as it doens't seem to help much at all? haha =)

Partially new comp!

With the help of my dearest, I can kicked the pc-less days away. Due to a failed "operation" I did on my comp, I buang the whole motherboard. As my dear dun bear to see her poor boy has no PC to use, she offered financial help. And now, I can be on MSN with my dear everyday once more! Not forgetting my PC games! Got a new motherboard, rams & power supply. Well, next time, I wld nt anyhow operate on my comp anymore. Erm, no next time I mean. haha =) Yeah! 3 cheers to my sweetest dear! (^^.) P.S: Thx to Lyn for helping me with the specs too! =)

End of my jobless days!

Finally got a job. A 1yr contract job @ Starhub. This was what dear's been hoping so that I can be bound for a yr w/o skipping anywhr again. haha =) Anyway, my wkplace is @ Starhub HQ located in Ayer Rajah Crescent. It's nt accounts job anymore. Back to whr I'm supposed to be ba, I supposed. A logistics job - the diploma I received. Well, after going for so many a/cs interviews and getting rejects with the same ans, "For u to excel in this line, u defintely need to further ur studies." And I noe for sure that I no longer wana go back & cramp those notes into me again. So I've make up my mind to do with what I have even if it means starting all over again. Maybe that's where I shld really be. So, while I'm still nt that old, I've decided to give it a shot! Wish me luck!

The dreaded day..

"Alex has only an hr left..." Received this msg frm sy. Rushed my way to hospital with Yu. He was alrd weak & seem 2b in great difficulty when I saw him. At ard 11.45pm, his heart rate was falling, everyone rushed in. And juz afew mins after midnite, he left. The hearts of his loved ones broken. But I noe he's freed of suffering & has gone to a better place finally. No more tubes sticking into him or has his life like being hang by juz a thin thread. May you rest in peace & look over ur dear mum from above. You'll be missed by all those whom crossed paths with you in this life. Let's pray that justice would be done. P/S: To jy & sy, sadness is inevitable, but be strong! Take care of urselves! =)

I'm a strong bull, I can tahan de. Dun u worry abt tempting me with food, I can resist de. I acc my dear & my sis for meals. It's call 望梅止渴. So, if u're short of meals kakis, can still ask me!

To a healthier living!

Standing at only 156cm & having a weight of 64.1kg makes me 130% overweight. Had been putting off my diet plan since donkey years ago & pushing the blame (of having a big tummy) away on Amanda (a girl I was after when I was 16) for bringing me to pub & drink every wk for half a year. But alarm has sounded for a concrete diet plan to start taking place. Went for a body test and had the following results: Out of the 64.1kg I have:- Intracellular Fluid (fluid content inside the cell) = 17.4litre Extracellular Fluid (fluid content outside the cell) = 8.6litre Giving the total body water to be 26litre = 26kg. (17.4+8.6) Plus 9.5 protein mass which gives a 35.5 (26+9.5) kg of muscle mass. Note that some ppl said their overweight was due to their bones being too heavy? However, mine was lighter than normal weighing at 2.2kg. (So I dun haf an excuse to push the blame on my bones!) Tallying all the above, 17.4+8.6+9.5+2.2 = 37.7kg Taking my weight of 64.1kg minus 37.7 lean body mass
