Today is Irving's birthday..hee i went to Takashimaya and shopped for a while for his present last 2 weeks ago...dun really noe what to buy for him...wanted to buy him a Mont Blanc pen but i am out of budget for it...Mont Blanc pen is nice but super ex loh..when i make more money , then i buy one for him and my daddy! haha...so i looked around for a long time...not knowing what to buy...wanted to buy him a belt but James told mi better dun...but dunno whats the reason behind...anyway, i looked for a tie clip...but i realised not many pple use tat...hmm...so in the end, i went back to Mont Blanc shop and saw a exquisite card holder...can oso be used as a bill holder...so i tot tat might be useful to him and within my own budget too...it was very nicely wrapped up ...better than if i am the one doing it..haha
So anyway, i passed him the present...Steve gave him a Mont Blanc pen..Ben gave him an orange tie...the rest i dunno liaoz...Glad that he like it...and i hope he does have use for it... =)

My supervisor,TB was telling mi that he was going to clear my probation...really glad to hear tat...after i knew that i was going to be confirmed...it was a mixed feeling...before confirmation, i felt like an IA student...responsibility, sense of urgency and alot of things that i did during that period didnt come to me as an important issue...after i knew i will be confirmed, i took serious pride in the work...knowing that i am fully responsible for each engine that i do..i take my work seriously now...i have pride in the things i do..sometimes work is not just about money...itz the job satisfaction...itz wat u learned and wat u are able to achieve...all i wan is my Super Pumas to fly high and safe...itz proud to see them flying...itz a feeling hard to describe...Money is not everything but itz something u wun tink is too much to have!!
Make ur money work for u and u work for ur passion!
I had an urgent meeting juz after my boss told mi i was going to be confirmed...it was a very big issue and i shant discuss it over my blogs..but we had a meeting till late...juz trying to get old records and adjusting presentation slides...for the next few days , i was super busy with this issue...woah...it almost turn the whole company upside down...

I am a simple person,fun loving and hope to live happily everyday and every single moment...
I Like Freedom...
I Hate Hypocrites!! Stay Away from me!!
I always believed that we live our lives to fulfill our dreams and to seek the person we love most on earth and be together forever..
just like Altair and Vega..
I seek for true love on earth but kind of disappointed with this journey as true love seems non-existent...
Everyone of us should live with Dreams..
Itz our Dreams that make us different from all Other Living Creatures..
Itz Our Dreams that Make Our Lives Meaningful and fulfuilled...
Start Your Imagination Wild now..Because Dreaming is Free!
Dare to Dream, Dare To Fail..
Live Your Life The Way You Want It Because It is Your Life ..
We Live Once so Live it To The Max!
.:. My Likes .:.
I Like My Life...

I Like BMWs and AirBus 380...
Most Importantly, I Love My family and my close friends who have supported me always ..Never giving me up and be my listeners..
.:. My Hates .:.
I Hate Lecherous Guys!! Be Sorry if you are disrespectful to Gals in front of Me!!
I Hate Brinjals and Cabbages!!
I Hate Flying Cockroaches!!
I Hate Myself Without Dreams and Be Negative!!
