Alrite...after a thorough consideration...i've decided to quit my current job n take up the Fuji Xerox one....salary n working hrs r better than the current one im holding...Not sure if its becos of me quitting cos my trainer also wanna quit n find an easier job with fix working hrs....he told me this wld be his last wk....therefore we were slacking on monday noon during office hrs...instead of pitching to co. we went to selegie e games to play dota...hahaa...

My mum told me she had movie tix given by mediacorp to the preview movie 881....Therefore i asked SY along since her working hrs r also flexible...met her at PS in the morning...show was more suited for the older generation as its a typical local production where dialects r being use and sung...basically its like a hokkien musical and wld interest most of the aunty n uncles la...actor qi yu wu was having this stone face most of the time cos hes mute...however tat doesn't justify tat he shd hav a stone face all the time la....this muz be one of his easiest acting role....juz pulling off a stone face thruout can liao....lol~

the world is indeed very small...SY ex bf is a good fren of my trainer therefore SY noes my trainer....my trainer happens to be a good fren of one of my polymate SZ....SZ n SY has been in the same clz thruout their poly life...therefore we r all connected one way or another....Met up wif my trainer for another game of dota...after tat he said he was meeting SZ n ask me to come along since i also noe her n moreover SZ was asking another of her air stewardess fren along...it has never occurred to me tat SZ will become an air stewardess for SQ cos her appearance didn't attract me back in poly...However life is full of surprises...she made it thru all the interviews n trainings n is nw travelling ard the world...Got to noe her stewardess fren charlene...a gorgeous lady wif big eyes n lots of diff kinds of facial expression...too bad shes attach to another steward nw...anyway SZ n charlene were like bitching n having their gal's talk all the way ever since they met each other...its amazing how gals can kick start a conversation n talk non-stop once they meet each other....n i rilly mean non stop like a machine gun shooting at full throttle!

31 july is a date i always seem to take note whenever its drawing near..simply becos its someones special day...perhaps i shdn't remember but memories always seem to linger in my head no matter how hard i try to forget...Even tho i noe this person will not be reading my blog...i juz wanna say

"Enjoy urself on this very day"

Suppose to meet her for lunch yesterday but her work ended late so we decided to meet after her manicure....reached taka at 5 n waited 1 hr b4 she was done wif her nails...well...it was worth the wait as her nails turn out to be rilly nice....u can never DIY urself with tat kinda design unless u r a manicurist...grab a quick bite at MOS burger as i have a movie to catch at cine while she has a company event to attend at K box....went to shop abit n she bought this chopsticks hair pin which made her look so japo...lol~....altho our meeting was short...it was great to catch up with her again....seems like everyone whos working r all very bz....n tonite shes flying off to KL for biz trip again

Watched transformer after tat...movie was excellent! heard so many pple commenting tat it is one of the best movie of the year...however i didn't had a chance to watch the past wks as my frenz last min have things on...Later we went over zw place for our gambling session...it was the 1st time zw jio mj...haha...muz be feeling bored never meet his gf den come n jio us play rite...in the end the big loser was......need not mention la...colin shd be able to guess who....wahahahaa....one person lose to 3 this time...

Im now at a cross road once again...having to decide if i shd change job as i had a better offer while visiting one of the co. ....this co. is only 4 mths old n is trying to recruit new sales personal to sell fuji xerox photo copier....salary wise is rilly attractive...they have a basic pay n cover my transport n hp bills plus theres also commission....average each mth can get at least 3-4k....depending on my sales performance of cos...this is like twice the pay i get from my current co. However i love my current job now as im learning lots of sales technique at the moment n have no plans of leaving the co. yet....the pple there is lively n frenly...never fail to help u if u r in need of any assistance...Also my current job has a very good career advancement but if i were to study overseas den this job wldn't be worthwhile staying as i will not be able to build my own sales team...On the other hand the Fuji Xerox co. is good for short term becos of the pay scale...i've got another 5-6 mths to work b4 i go overseas to study...starting to doubt if i shd go overseas to further my studies nw cos of the pay i can get if i were to stay in s'pore....Besides i can actually study part time degree while working....haizzz....im suppose to give fuji xerox co. a reply by monday as to whether i wan the job but i haven make up my mind yet....arghhh....JC told me tat i shd go n get a degree cos with a degree pple actually respect u more n tats how she got her first job...its not becos of her experience but becos shes a degree holder...frankly speaking i still wish to study overseas becos i wanna get the PR in aust for my parents

With tat in mind...my goal isn't juz to earn 3-4k a mth but 20k a mth...one way or another i aim to achieve it by the age of 30....this leaves me wif 8 more yrs to go....call me ambitious or over confident but its my personal goal in life...i wanna live life without monetary worries n shower the one i love with comfort and care...dine the finest...drive a sports car n live happily in a big house

Life is full of choices and only one determines ur future..which is it?

Yesterday i finally had a chance to meet up wif SY....we've been trying to meet up over the wkends but shes always bz working till 10 plus while im too tired to go out n meet her...therefore we decided to meet after my work on monday while shes having her dinner break....1st time having dinner with her at hougang mall cafe cartel...she wanted to eat MOS burger at first but cldn't find the outlet so i intro her cafe cartel since its one of my fav. restaurant to hangout n chill...i juz love the bread n butter there...its simply delicious!!! everyone i intro agrees with me tat the bread there is one of the best they have tasted...Cut the long story short it was kinda hilarious as shes chinese speaking while i prefer to speak in eng...everytime she start of a conversation in chi i switch it back to eng...haha...n when i start speaking in eng she switch it back to chi...lol~ AFter tat stephen kenn zz n yiling came over my place for a mahjong...this is one of the activities i can't live without...Mahjong is part of my life nw...every wk at least once i'll play....din wanted to slp late as i was working next day at 8am...however they psycho me to play till 3am...arghhh....next day i was damn tired la....had a hard time waking up n getting my ass out of the hse

Picking up lots of communication and interpersonal skills at the moment....every single day im learning different sales tactic....body language/posture...the way u stand n some of the taboo words we shd not use when promoting the platinum service....do a short intro n story so tat the receptionist or whoever will not juz reject u....after 2 days i finally mastered how to do a full pitching to the boss or person in charge...To be honest...i feel rilly nervous n scary to go door to door businesses to speak to the big boss...its not abt the rejection but more of a nervous feeling when u go into somewhere unfamiliar n some pple r rilly hostile to u...however there r also some who r rilly nice n frenly whos willing to hear wat i have to offer...im rilly grateful to my mentor who has been absolutely fantastic in terms of his sales technique and his willingness to pass on his knowledge n skills to me....these sales techniques r not taught in sch but frm experience....hes one of those natural sweet talker where he can juz make u feel happy n buy watever hes selling...without his guidance i rilly do not think i could handle this myself...im starting to gain confidence after today...So hopefully i can go solo tml or the day after...if only i do not need to go back camp on thurs n fri i could have gone KL for the company's rally....wat a waste man....accommodation n food all paid for sia

My first day at work was rilly tiring...Morning we had a awards cum motivational kinda thingy where they recognise the previous day top earner or team...Later i was attached to one of the trainer for an orientation of how things work here....basically its a B2B sales whereby u have to sell credit cards or term loans to business managers or directors...therefore its unavoidable to walk alot ard industrial area...My trainer was a part time SIM grad whos doing his degree in his 2nd yr...this guy is the tallest guy ard in the company...i feel so short standing wif him man...anyway hes rilly helpful n frenly...i think we 2 rilly hit it off well together....talk abt lots of stuff other than work...probably we have things in common tats y....he mention his previous 2 trainee were very boring...juz follow him walk ard only...whereas we were talking non stop....haha...learn many communication skills by seeing him how he start pitching to the various companies...tho it was quite a hassle to travel frm chinatown to tuas and den to ubi cos he needed to collect documents frm clients...it was enjoyable working with him...I kinda like this job in the sense tat it has flexible working hrs n u r on ur own most of the time...however its rilly tiring n time consuming to be travelling ard s'pore using public transport...Salary wise is rilly attractive compared to other jobs n it has a rilly good career advancement....so much so tat im considering if im doing well in this company i might not even go overseas to study...but we'll see how it goes la..

Past Vs Present on Sat was fun!! Saw many familiar faces once again....pple whom i haven met for a long time...juniors whom i use to play soccer with back in sec sch...those were the days where i was so into soccer n i even proclaim the soccer ball to be my wife...didn't care much abt the gals in my sch at tat time...i was only keen on chasing soccer balls rather than gals...nw times have change...it seems tat the gals whom i didn't cared much in those days became prettier...juz like an ugly duckling becoming a swan...its great to see some of my teachers who taught me b4....after so many yrs they still can remember my name...guess i muz hav left a deep impression be it good or bad...one of the teachers (zhang lao shi) even ask my fren abt me tho i din get to see her......Tho the sch has gone thru massive renovation....I will never forget this sch which i left many memories behind

Been searching for a full time job in the sales n marketing sector or the finance n purchasing line. However my hunt for job hasn't been exactly fruitful. Juz came back frm a part time promoter interview at vivocity. Its a company tats selling interactive fitness computer game. Something like the Nintendo WII tat simulates game play with ur movements. They have games like tennis, boxing, bowling, golf and aerobics. My job is to help them promote the console by playing the game n attracting pple to buy the product. Still thinking whether i shd accept the job cos its kinda paisei to play the game infront of pple. Plus the salary isn't very attractive. I have another job interview on Monday which is a 2nd rd of interview for the position as marketing executive. Pay is quite high for a fresh grad. Was suppose to go down for the 2nd rd of interview last monday but i overslept...luckily they rescheduled me for another one this coming monday. Hopefully i can get tat job den i can stop my job hunt already.

Its PVP tml. Last min realise tat my team is short of defenders. Pris was helping me pull in all sorts of players. Players who aren't rilly keen to play n players who r simply cui. Therefore after i saw the players list last nite i realise we rilly need to get more defenders cos the whole list consist of only midfield n attacker. Its gonna be an exciting day tml n i hope we wun sia suay.

Chatted with JC on msn. Its been a long time since i spoke to her. Juz a short conversation with her rilly makes my day...Dunno y but everytime i talk to her the feeling i get is indescribable..how i wish our conversation wldn't end....arghhhhhh

Gosh! wat m i thinking...

Met up with yining last monday...its been quite awhile since i last caught up with her...this gal is another career minded gal which i envy...Landing up with a job tat pays for her car n other remunerations...Tho i cld use my dad's car i didn't had to since shes driving...lol~ Met her after work at compass point for drinks n dinner...after tat her sis came to drop by...Surprisingly her sis is already married at the age of 21 n has a kid nw....however yining says shes totally different frm her sis in terms of personality....she rather work n be independent by herself than get married so early...tats pretty much the type of gal i like...someone who can be independent by herself without the need of anyones support....i muz comment tat her driving is rilly terrible...had to fasten my seat belt even tho i was sitting at the back...guess the P plate tats on her car justifies the reason y shes such a bad driver....she nearly crash onto the car infront at the zebra crossing....shd hav taken up the offer to drive her car instead of her driving me back man

Came back frm taiwan on sat nite...the trip was fun tho i felt tat 7 days there was way too much....the last 2 days we simply dunno where else to go except Ximending where it was the heart of their shopping outlets...Fortunately our hotel was located right smack in the middle of Ximending therefore it was very convenient...Most of the time we were either shopping or eating....the things there r not exactly cheap...abt the same price as s'pore...likewise for the food n transport...i spend a total of 800 plus for the trip which might sound alot for a 7 days trip....cld have spend alot lesser if i didn't buy so many clothes n 5 pair of jeans!!! think i bought too many jeans liao la...The food there is unlike wat u can find in s'pore...some of my fav. food tat i recommend if any of u r going r food such as 'AH zHOng MiAn Xian', Oyster omelette', 'FLAVOURED SAUSAGES', 'jian bing (something like egg prata)', 'fan juan', etc. N theres this unique 'Modern Toilet Bowl Theme Restaurant' tat u guys shd visit if u ever have a chance...the decor is furnish in such a way tat u r eating in a toilet...the seats tat u r seating on is actually toilet bowl...the table is a bath tub with a glass on top of it....the lighting walls r done in such perfection tat the atmosphere gives u a rilly cosy feeling....It was such a nice experience tat we wanted to dine there for lunch again on the last day but it was pack with pple...we cldn't wait cos we had a plane to catch later in the noon...At the end of it i felt tat it was the company of frenz tat made the trip worthwhile...taiwan isn't a place u wanna go again cos the things r so limited over there...if i ever go back to taiwan i'll probably go to kaosiung or taizhong instead of taipei
