My blog is still alive..

Recently there are some of my friends complaining that I didn't update my blog by giving excuses of working and paktoh, I don't wish to admit it..but it seems yes...So now I have to start my rescue plan to my blog, here is a little updates about myself recently.


We went Road House Grill which located at Jalan Ampang for our 4th months anniversary celebration~


A must for a couple picture as it was our anniversary celebration...=P


Their bread is extremely nice! I'm not so into bread because I hate dry food but I take it..


My choice of the day, grilled seafood. It looked nice but taste is not up to my expectation..


Ryan likes steak so steak is always his choice..The taste for me is also so so lor..maybe I'm just not that into steak..


There is one day we accidentally get to try this pumpkin porridge steamboat which around Ampang as well, it was just next to the "zhui mao' restaurant.

Thumb up for pumpkin porridge steamboat! The texture is really soft, when I try it I felt like I seem long never had such nice food...love it love it~


There was clubbing night as usual but not frequent as previous time..


There I met with Stephen, a long lost friend after Maxis roadshow that back to few years ago..I miss the times, freelance is just about having fun and earn as much as you want..as it is so flexible~and the pay is not bad though, the amount I can earn that time is even better than my current salary..=( But as I getting older, feel a bit embarassing to go and grab jobs with teenagers nowadays..paiseh..


I love this picture~


And we are in Zouk when it was 5 years old recently.

It shows that I seem wear this dress for many times, actually not much, is only these two times. As Aileng said I will only wear it once and kept in wardrobe once mission completed, it prove that I'm not..=P



I love it as well because of Ryan's face expression, he can even do better than the clown.

Beside the above, I actually gone through some special sport activities recently like water rafting, unfortunately no pictures taken, it suppose to be an exhilarating sport but it was not that fun due to the water level is not high enough for us to raft, at some place we need to out from raft to move it manually by ourselve...a bit disappointed..

So here I announce again, my blog is still alive~

Some Updates and Shadow...

Here is some updates about my life recently, I've resigned for the third time in Ayam A1, which is the food industry job as a key account executive,but going to join Time Galerie as an advertising and marketing executive. It might be a bit miserable about my job hunting journey, but Time Galerie is the final destination I want to stop at due to it has given the offer I want, and I already wasted too much times previously, it is the time to have a full stop on job hunting, and to have a determination to commit for a job, and work hard to reach another level in my career path. I should feel satisfied and fortunate to get what I want...

About my love path, it goes smooth and sweet, but the shadow of past experience still affected me, it might be very unfair to my current boy friend, but I hard to control myself not to think in that way, in the extend to protect myself. I feel sweet and happy to attach in the current relationship, yet I feel so worrying that I will get involve or concentrate too much in a relationship, and wondering will it be just because it is the beginning, so everything goes fine..and until some times, things might change...people might change..everything might change...

Sometimes, thing isn't complicated or happened as I thought, but I just can't control myself to think it in a negative way, so that when the things happen, I will not be too disappointed or too sad, because I've already warned and told myself earlier on that things and human might change, and things will not happen as I wish. I always told myself, my life will not be the blissful one la, where got so easy and simple, where got happiness will happen on me..where got 1 la..so that I will not be disappointed when I can't meet with 'blissful' and 'happiness' these words..

But I asked myself is it really work so that I won't be disappointed if I already told myself I will not be the blissful one, I'm doubt on it...I might still sad and despair at the time...so why would I still want to think things in a negative way?I don't know, I just can't help myself to think in a negative way...unless the shadow is disappeared one day...perhaps..

New Job

My mind has been struggling for the past few weeks about what do I really want to do?What kind of job is the most suitable for me?Marketing or sales is better for me?What do I want to achieve in the future?How do I want to walk my future path?

Earlier on I have been chosen the bank job, which is a sales job, within these 2 weeks I'm with the bank, I heard of all the negative comments about this job, and I saw that there is very high turnover in this position, the one who with the ability will stay, the one who tried hard but still can't work out will leave...this is like a survivor game...the winner's name will be shown and rank on top...And the economy has seriously affected the industry that I should have to get business from...and I'm totally fresh in this line, my previous knowledge and experience totally can't apply on this job...but from another side, I can learn new things from this job, because I have never tried on sales and there is really quite a lot of things to learn from this position and bank industry...but I being threatened by the fact that this is not the right time for me to try 'whether am I suitable to do sales'...especially in this line...if you can't perform within half year you will be terminated...I wondering do I have the spirit to fight with others and with myself...

Therefore, just after 2 weeks I've worked, I decided to go for another offer which I mentioned earlier on..which is the food industry job... I have decided to work for the position that relevant to my previous working experience and skills..and the work tasks that I have more interest...At some extend I would say myself quite useless as I don't dare to accept the challenge..and rather to stay at the safe and comfort zone...But to see from the recent economic condition, I would like to stay back in the safe zone, rather than worrying of myself can't hit target every month, being pushed for figures everyday, and rather than take the risk of being terminated or can't perform in the end..I just want to protect myself...and to live and work happier in a better environment...

I tendered resignation letter for the banking job today, and will start my new job again on next Monday, bless me~

Recent Trip @t Bukit Tinggi and Happy Valentines~

I always heard that peoples went Bukit Tinggi and I've been wondering how does this place look like for long. Finally I get to visit this place recently, thanks for the holiday contribution of Thaipusam. We had a small and relaxing trip at Bukit Tinggi, this was my first time went there and I believe one time will be sufficient because there is nothing much basically, but Bukit Tinggi definitely is a good choice for a relaxing one day trip.




The must visit place in Bukit Tinggi- Colmar Tropical, they usually call it France Village, there is some stores and stalls selling foods and accessories, and there is 2-3 restaurant and cafes, 30 minutes is sufficient to complete the visit.


We went botanical garden as well, good place for plant lovers~

About the Japanese Village, there is a very nice Japanese restaurant located there, I mean the outlook and design of it only, but one hot green tea costs us RM5, so you can imagine how costly if you dine in there.



The parking place for France Village is a castle~


We met geese, I feel like riding on them when I saw it...the white fur look like very comfortable to lay on..

After the trip, we went Shogun 1u for dinner to end this wonderful holiday~

This year, we celebrated our 1st Valentines in a condominium at Gohtong Jaya.


Our Valentines dinner, big bowl of steamboat, for four persons~ there is another couple which shown on the picture above at France Village was actually there with us too. This valentines is quite special as we celebrate valentines with others instead of only celebrating ourselves.


There is a christmas tree for our valentines celebration~


Yeah, and this is what I got for my valentines present~I love it very much, thank you to my darling...

What I did during CNY?

I had a 2 days 1 night Melaka trip during CNY, we went A Famosa and saw cowboy show, animal show, carnival show..and we went water park to have some fun..


Some pictures while waiting for food..Ryan looked happy because there will be chicken rice ball served~


Typical Melaka food that we must try everytime we went~


Then my home will pray for everything that can be prayed during CNY..Bai Tian Gong which is a must at every year. Although we are not Hokkien, we still pray it gaogaoly!


Some pictures while playing with my home kids..



Then there was Aileng 25th birthday celebration at Velvet~Jimuis picture as usual and for sure!Happy Birthday to Aileng, sorry for never planned a good one celebration for you..



And this is a season for reunion~finally we had a reunion dinner and picture with the Cindy came back from Melaka, Amber came back from Australia at Neroteca restaurant, the cheesy ham roll is our favourite at the night, while the lamb steak taste so so, but it is the most costly dish-RM170, the whole dinner cost us RM310..for 5 persons!Throat cutting price, however, it is worth for our reunion~





The day after Aileng's birthday celebration at Velvet, we went Velvet again. They love Velvet so much, maybe because of it's Mambo Jambo music?

During my CNY, there is a lot of open house visits, family's and friend's reunion dinner, we watched CNY movie, shopping, travelling, gambling, fireworks...lot of activities can be done during CNY! I love CNY...however today is chinese calender 15th already, which is the last day of CNY, and it is chinese valentines too...Wish all of you 'Yuan Xiao Jie Kuai Le', and I will start my new job soon..good bye CNY...

CNY Victories

I did my CNY shopping at Kota Damansara those boutiques initially, but their clothes design are just kanasai..you even won't have the intention to try it...So we give up the shopping there, and went Bangsar for 2nd round, Bangsar is our shopping paradise if were compared with KD boutiques..


RM32.90 for the brown top, I like it as it can be matched nicely with jeans or slack
RM33.90 for the black dress, a loose dress, but simple and nice for me =)
RM19.95 for the white skirt, so cheap!!!
All of them were bought from Little Black Book..


White jacket for working purpose, RM50++
Checkered dress for RM45++, a bit fancy but nice to wear~


Simple and cute pink lining dress from Mooie, also cost me about RM45++ only!


Pink love prints tube top and white tube dress from Times Square which I did shopping 2 weeks ago..both of them cost me around RM70++.

I seem bought too much of cutie dress...from the color i choose, you can see that I like white, pink and black~feel so happy with my victories!!!


Wong's family studio photo, wish my father 'IT business' 'sang yi heng long', ahboy able to pass his SPM, and wish myself doing good for everything in this ox year~

My Sweet Christmas

Exchange christmas present is what we must do in every christmas, hopefully we will still remain this habit until the age of 30',40',50'...Not sure is it possible, but I believe we will try our best to exchange present until an unknown age..

The budget we set to purchase gift is RM40++, it is not easy to get something nice and presentable with RM40, and I successfully bought a miniature perfume of Ralph Lauren Romance with this budgeted amount, feel quite proud of myself~



I have got aileng's sequined clutch, Vindy has got my miniature and Aileng has got Vindy's Miss Selfridge voucher, we all happy with what we have got~

Another special present I received was from my dear Ryan, he prepared a western dinner as our Christmas big meal. We have exchanged Christmas present as well, I've got Padini blazer plus a set of working attire from him, and he has got a wallet from me.



Candle, flower, red wine, despite the background, I was surprised with this perfect setting, it's indeed a very touching scene as you know it was arranged with heart and some effort..Thank you very much to my darling...=)




He has cooked this so called 'lemon sauce grilled salmon with vege and German sausage' as our Christmas dinner. Why there is sausage? He said because he loves sausage since childhood..I could only thumb up to describe the dish!

He has promised me to cook the so called 'king fry rice'(wong dei cao fan), claypot loh she fun and 'gong fu cao' on next weekend for me, I'm looking forward for the big meal!!! =P

Interviews

I was busy looking for jobs recently,and I went interviews until I felt numb and able to predict what the interviewers will ask most of the times...

However, I still haven't found a job which I really want it so much or I just not suitable for the position. For e.g, a position which never mentioned they need a Head of Department, but only putting 'Business Analyst', so I just went it...and obviously my personality and my experiences are not suitable to be HOD. Then I went another interview as they need 'marketing executive', and the interviewer talked most of the times, and he told me 'you can request any amount of basic salary as you wish (wow!), but the revenue you gain for company must at least 1/3 of your basic salary then only u can get the basic salary(huh!!?)', that means if I didn't achieve the 1/3, I get nothing? The answer is yes and he somemore asked me 'this model sounds interesting right?' I just speechless...but still need to entertain with him..'yeah, sounds like not bad...!' It is something like those multi level marketing company...all these interviews wasted my times, petrol, money, and energy...

But there are two jobs which I'm quite interested, one is doing sales, is actually a position of marketing executive for hire purchase from a local bank, while another one is key account executive which involves a lot marketing activities and events in food industry...I find myself more interested on the non-sales job as I worry of sales pressure and I prefer to involve in the marketing activities and events, because it sounds like more interesting, and I love foods..and I was wondering am I suitable to be a sales person? Imagine that wonwon or yeewen need to layan with a lot of auto dealers, and smile brightly with her biggest effort to get sales from them...wow, even myself also can't imagine it...Those who knows me, understand what I'm saying right? However, I got offer from the bank and still waiting confirmation from the food company...And actually I do really hope to try on sales as I never tried it, I won't know am I really suitable for it, and sales can really earn better income if I can do it...I was in a dilemma again..sales or non-sales job?Friends, feel free to leave your comments please..

I have to ensure that I really like the job then only I will work for it, because my experience has told me as if I don't like what I'm doing, even you have the ability, you won't contribute your best for it...and the next job decide very much about my future path. Therefore, there will be more upcoming interviews that I need to go...To choose the best which I really want it...and also to get the best offer..Or I might be the banker also as their offer is reasonable and acceptable though..=)
