A red Ferrari beside my car. Gasp

Yoga

I went for my first Yoga lesson on Tuesday evening, an activity organized by my company. To be frank, I'm not really interested in any form of exercises (Yes, i'm a lazy fat-@ss piggy, who adore her lovely butt so much that she can stare at the mirror for hours examining the shape of the butt). But I have to admit, Yoga is one form of exercise that caught my interested.

So, on that day, I bring along a towel (as i'm doubtful whether i'll be a full time yoga learner or not, thus, i'm not going to waste 30 bucks on a freaking mat that i might only use once). The class started 15min late. I was thinking of cursing those who came late but lucky for those late comers, I was doing a role player that day and what a coincident that my role was "Mother Teresa" . Thus, I come, I see, and I forgive.......

The moment we start Yoga, I fall in love with it already. Yes, although some of the position is extremely difficult and I think I failed nearly 75% of the position and postures (Thanks to my fat-@ss), but I love it. And, yes, I'm going for the second class, finally making up my mind to "throw-out" the 30 bucks to buy a mat.



And yes, you can guess it correctly. I'm not in my best of mood today..... Better stop here before I offended anyone. Think I better log in to facebook and kill someone at Mob Wars......

Pokai

The time now is 4.41pm. From the moment I opened my eyes this morning at 8.20am this morning until now, the total money inside my wallet had increased from x to x+12.

Now why most of you will ask. Should it be less since it's weekend and weekends are usually spending time. Ok, let me elaborate more.

1st, I took my car for service this morning but the place was pack. Thus, I changed my service to 2pm. Then I went with Applely to have our car wash at Original car wash (finally, I think my car has not been wash for 6 months).

Since I felt sorry for neglecting my car for so long, so, I choose the best package for him.

Wash + polish = RM50 (Plus free drink)

While waiting, we order some snacks (RM10) and enjoy girls' session. However, when the car was finally done, it's only 12noon. So, to make full use of our time, we decided to go shopping to idle our time away.

In the end, I bought a...

Blue Blouse = RM40

When I finally sit down at Gamma and pass them my car key, the person in charge told me my car need full service since it's 2 years already.

The total charge = RM290

The money in my wallet increase because I used my credit card to pay at original car wash (both mine and Applely, that's why she paid me back cash), blouse by cash. But total credited to my credit card today

RM400.

Now, I know car is an expensive maintenance toy and a liability.

Economy Turmoil

The situation is bad, really bad now. Today there is top management's meeting. After the meeting, news are being spread to us, engineer's level about the current status of our company.

Basically it can be summarized into TWO main points.

1. The "life-saver" product have had issue, causing the customer to pull out the order from our company. This posted a big issue. Due to the world-wide economy downturn, productivity suffered badly. Thus, we had been putting our bet on this "life-saver" since our company has the capability to produce it. Nevertheless, the dream shattered when "life-saver" was pronounce mal-function.

2. Big guy from G is going to our company soon. A lay-off is going to be a statement, rather than a rumour.

Well, I guess it's not just our company that is facing this issue. Many established big sound companies had already did what is necessary for cost saving. Guess it's our company turn soon.

Melamine

The word "melamine" became famous overnight when one of the well-trusted big company milk at China was suspected having this substance. Then it's followed that milk containing this substance can actually causes dead for baby. This phenomena really causes a big BANG when it's finally published widely in the press.

Melamine definition as quoted from Wikipedia

"Melamine is an organic base and a trimer of cyanamide, with a 1,3,5-triazine skeleton. Like cyanamide, it contains 66% nitrogen by mass and, if mixed with resins, has fire retardant properties due to its release of nitrogen gas when burned or charred, and has several other industrial uses."

Now, anything containing Melamine is strictly "ban" from displaying at the counter in every supermarket. How odd it is when I went shopping with my grandma at Boulevard and found this...

Melamine WARE?!


No play-play.... M.E.L.A.M.I.N.E. No spelling mistake. On display right in the middle for all customer to see.




Wondering what is it?







I wonder if anyone is going to buy it...

Honeymoon

Once upon a time in, there lived a happy couple, Mr & Mrs Lim with their 3 lovely daughters; Elaine, Ena and Ella. The 3 daughters were brought up in a prim-and-proper way and when they reached 20, they were still virgins.

Years passed, and it was time to get them married. So, the parents found them the most suitable 'leng chais' (handsome guys). They got married and were preparing to set-off on their honeymoon.

As 'concerned' (more like 'kay-poh') parents, Mr & Mrs Lim were curious about their daughters' first-night experience. So, before the daughters went on their respective honeymoons, Mrs. Lim told them, 'Your father and I want to know about your 1st night encounters and whether you are satisfied. Write a letter to us, but as not to raise your husbands' curiosity...you all must use a codename to describe your experiences'.

So, the excited daughters were off. A week passed. Mr &Mrs Lim got the first letter. It was from Elaine. They opened the letter and found the word STANDARD CHARTERED. They immediately took the newspaper and looked for the Standard Chartered advertisement. 'Ah! Here it is!', exclaimed Mr. Lim. The motto for Standard Chartered was .... 'BIG, STRONG & FRIENDLY'. Mr & Mrs Lim were happy.

A week later, they got another letter. This time it was from Ena. The content was simple. 'NESCAFE'. So, again they took the newspaper and looked for the Nescafe ad. 'Ah! Here it is. 'NESCAFE: PLEASURE TILL THE LAST DROP'. Mr. & Mrs Lim beamed with joy.

Another week passed. A month passed. And another. There was still no letter from Ella. The Lims became worried. Finally, the letter came. It was scribbled and could hardly be read, but Mrs Lim managed to figure it out. The codename was 'SINGAPORE AIRLINES'.

Why Singapore Airlines?

Mr Lim rushed to the nearest store and got a newspaper. He flipped the pages frantically. 'Ah! Here it is!' Mrs. Lim grabbed the page and read aloud. Before she could finish ...THUMP!!!...she fell off her chair. The motto was ..


'7 TIMES A WEEK. 4 TO 6 TIMES A DAY. NON-STOP'
