Positive impact

Today, is a great day.

I have a dear girl friend, who is very capable but she couldn't "see" it herself. Probably the result of a long relationship with a mean boyfriend - it drowned her confidence level. She lacked confidence, big time. We've been emailing each other more than going out together, for various reasons. We've known each other for about 10 or 11 years. We started emailing each other since er... 5, 6 years ago? I forgot. (Hey, T, how many years have we been emailing each other? haha..)

She is a very nice girl. But she loved her boyfriend more than herself. It's fine if it's a doting boyfriend but sadly it's not. That boyfriend killed her confidence. Whenever I can, I always tell her to be confident, to love herself first. Just like in the plane, when accident happens, take care of yourself first before attending to your kids or others. Love yourself, only then you'll gain your confidence.

Today, is a great day. In her email to me today, I saw a change in her. She too saw the change in herself. She's more confident now. I was actually a little surprised to see how she handled the conversation between she and her very-mean-evil-hearted colleague. She stood her ground. She did not give in. And I was so proud of her. It's like watching your little sister finally grown up. Believe it or not, I was touched when I read how she handled the matter. She changed.

She said to me it was me who taught her to be optimistic, to think positively about herself. I am glad that I was able to contribute a little in building up her confidence. It feels good to have a positive impact on your dear friend's life, even if a small impact.

My friends, let's work together, to become a better person each day :)

Resorts World

Long overdue photos. These were taken during CNY. CNY lunch for our department, at Chinois, at Hotel Micheal, Resorts World.



This is the tastiest "yu sang" I have ever ate!!!!! Their sauce is a bit sour, it's just sooo sooo soooo yummy!!!

The staffs there are all very beautiful. This lady is from China without a doubt.
The staffs in this restaurant are very courteous. But just last week my colleagues and I went to one of Resort World's hotel, met up the sales lady about our company event. SHe's very young, just graduated it seems. I don't know about her position as my other colleague liaise with this lady. And boy RW's people are arrogant. Their attitude sucks. The girl don't know much about Universal Studio's promotion, my colleague said to her "Do you want to have some of the information I have then?" That's a good one! ha! In the way, we decided not to hold the event there.





This was taken during CNY so there're no crowds yet.

This statue is placed outside the casino. My colleague said people are saying that this animal will eat all your good luck and you will lose money! haha. It's very weird looking. A long legged elephant.

The fat me.

At the entrance of Universal Studio.

A closer look. All photos taken by mobile phone, so it's not good quality.

That's Woody Wood Pecker!!! We (colleagues) are all going Universal Studio on 14 May! I want to take photos with all the cartoon figures!!
My colleagues were at the ticket counter asking something. I went back to them and said excitedly "I saw Woody Wood Pecker!" And my male colleague said "Let's go and beat the crap out of him." I said "WHy?? So mean!" And then when I told my brother "I saw Woody Wood Pecker and my colleague wanted to beat him." Guess what my brother said? He said "I was about to say the same : go and beat Woody Wood PEcker." But why??? everyone is so mean! hahaha......

Cycling - the 3rd time

It was "health day" in my compnay last Wed. We went cycling at 3pm. Heaven was so cooperative! When we're renting the bicycles, it drizzled a little but didn't really rain. After we returned the bicycle it started drizzling again, not sure if it rained after we left though.

Colleagues, colleagues, colleagues, most of my colleagues are nice~ I like them a lot.

The smallest bicycle was mine. I can't ride the normal adult one, too short... kekekek.... Initially I didn't want to ride, I was scared. But my colleagues were very nice, insisted on waiting for me. And the rental store staff let me tried on the kid's bike before I confirm to rent it. So I tried loh. Good on these good people~ I managed to ride afterall, albeit still wobbly.

It's around 清明节(Tomb sweeping day) and every Chinese knows, it rains during this time, no matter how hot the days had been. And Gab's mother said flowers will bloom around this time, birds will lay eggs, and dragonflies too will lay eggs around this time too~ I think she's right. Look at the flowers!!! A whole tree of pink!! This is Singapore/Malaysia's Sakura flower! Me and my colleague Joyce.

Beautiful right? Another colleague from JB, Lee Ling.

Flower petals are everywhere on the ground~ and they kept falling~ how romantic.

I've never seen a more beautiful East Coast Park.

My colleague said we face too much computer and we had to hug/touch trees to get rid of the bad things from computer. haha.



Nice!~~!
We cycled for 1:30hours only but my butt hurt like there's no tomorrow.... When I learnt cycling it hurt at a different "area". kekeke. This time perhaps I sat incorrectly... It hurt at the tailbone area and I got blister!!!! Seriously! When I shower, Oh My God.... it stung! hahahahaha... 屁股开花。。。。literally... hahahahaha... was a fun day!
