你看到啦.... 没有啦......

这是一个专为我们这群工作不忘娱乐, 又得装模作样的人而设的 feature. Maybe I "suagu", I learnt it only yesterday.

Download at: http://www.msnshell.com/

Setting:

1. Uncheck "revival hot key"



2. Check "enable quick concealment". Select your preferable "shotcut" for concealment.

Then, by pressing that shortcut, you can hide out your MSN or "revive" your MSN using the same shortcut. It's a bit like: 你看到啦.... 没有啦...... that kind of feeling. *blink*

Your boss won't see you chit-chatting around next time.

There are some other features you might find it handy also, e.g. weather forecast, slide display picture etc. Explore yourself and have fun.

Coming outing at Sedili: Update

Not very sure how many of you still remember Sedili - A place we held our class gathering in Snr Middle Two. A total "amazing" trip. Why? Go and read our 班刊 you'll know. It's really funny if you recall how we go in and come out from the chalet, the meals we had, and the two "helicopters" by the sea.... etc... And now, we're organising an outing to Sedili, yeah. Since many of us enjoyed the fun at Teluk Ramunia, we'd like to have more ppl to share the joy.

Venue: Sedili
Date: 31/5/08 and 1/6/08
Confirmed attendance so far: 15
Departure: TBA but most probably at the petrol station along Jln Tebrau near Tebrau City, 11am

Wondering who have confirmed? There you go:

Wen Zhou, Jia Xian, Ying Xiang & gf, Kuang Yee, Xin Hao, Wei Lun, Wei Wen, Chuan Jie, Ru Jie, Zhi Xiang, Fen Yee, Xiu Hui, Shu Jian and me

Wondering who is now in KIV list? There you go:

Yiqi and James, Yao Wen and wife, Ah Fu (initially confirmed but now a KIV), Chang Feng and Feng Kai

We have 2 very sincere and serious friends, though they claimed that they're "eng", toured the place last Sunday. They've helped to booked 2 big chalet (going to book another one to cater for more ppl) - the same resort we stayed last time. I believe they have some activities in mind also (since you guys did the touring for me). Hiak hiak.

Last but not least, an email will be sent to the confirmed attendants sometime next week. Should you have special request, you may voice out also. But please.... please... please... do not play last minute aeroplane as the deposit for the chalet have been paid for. Should you change your mind or things crop up, do give a 2 days notice. Many thanks.

Sounds like I'm drafting an email eh... yeah.... my email next week will be extracted from this post then. haha. Just put up an update here to show that the trip is still ON.

Back from Melbourne


Yeah, I'm back from trip. A tiring trip maybe due to long hour flights.

Our flight was at 9:45pm, 14/05/08. My lady boss was kind enough to let me knock off earlier to avoid the mad rush to airport. I did not have good feeling about this trip, or rather, I should said I was kinda worried cos it's a family trip. I prayed it would be a safe journey. Another thing was that, I learnt the auntie who stayed opposite me passed away on our departure day. I merely checked out from the police of her death, without sending my regards to the family members as I was rushing out, plus the police was still interviewing the family. Until today, I still do not know why and how she'd gone.

Transit at Darwin, which was also where we need to get custom clearance. It was not a pleasant experience which I personally think it's a serious discrimination (I'm checking whether or not our experience were just a custom routine check and whether or not I can file a complain if it is not).

It might not be a good time for travelling to Australia during this period of time. The weather was bad as it rained every now and then. The sun set at 5pm, as a result the length of the day was short. But, our enjoyment came from supermarket. There were always things to buy everyday, thus we did not miss "visiting" Safeway, or IGA or Coles.

Initial planned itenerary:

Day 1: Melbourne city
Day 2: Great Ocean Road (it rained thus we revisited the next day on the way to Barallat)
Day 3: Barallat (didn't manage to go Goldfield and wildlife park because of rain)
Day 4: Melbourne city - Main attraction being Victoria Market
Day 5: Philip Island
Day 6: Yarra Valley (what the hell the car caused us some problem)

More updates to come later as our half-pail-professional photographers are organising the pictures. Till then.

The one and only group picture of 8 - taken at Churchhill Island Heritage Farm, Philip Island.

Labour day long weekends

It's a long long holiday which I'd been looking forward to since middle of the month. No plans and nothing much to do though. Initially there was plan for outing but due to certain unforseen circumstances it was later called-off. This friend might have been losing touch with the world overly long (until he lost the 默契 with us) thought that we were still executing the plan. "哀怨" is a new word JX put it on this friend who was such a poor thing, cheated by Zhou dai gor. I also ignored him after his second sms as I was very tensed up watching <<怪談>> - for which my mum was the culprit. (Want to know who is "哀怨"?? Join us to Sedili. I've forced him to "on" this trip. Hehe.)

Talking abt <<怪談>> , this stupid show made me cannot sleep for 3 consecutive nights (now going to be another night). Even with the nights I had wine and another night with beer, I would still wake up in the middle of the night and started to feel scare. Look, I watched this HK programme during daytime, not alone, but with my mum and bro. Yet, I was still horrified by the show till I could't have good sleep at night. I admit I'm those very timid type of person, some episodes are indeed eerie and scary.

Had early celebration of Mother's Day with my maternal relatives on Saturday night. I still remember what we had last year and I feel that it's not very far away, but it's another year. The kids have grown up, some of them have significant changes in their appearance. Some of them I even cannot recall their names...



Tun Yee called to watch Ironman. I'm such a "代鹽人" (閑人. Err... not so "xian" in a way cos I met the same group of ppl for lunch and beer before and after the movie. Indeed very 充實.) so I wanted to join. In order not to disappoint Mei Mei, this 3-year-old gal would be following. It's such a memorable experience with this naughty Fu Mei Mei in the cinema. She was perfectly fine when she was hugging and chewing a big cup of popcorn. After she finished the popcorn, she kept asking for water. After a while, she said "我肚子痛". It was when Tony was building his very first iron suite for escape okay. I was very reluctant to bring her to restroom so I asked her to sit guai guai there, and also tried to convince her that it's because she ate too much. Who knows the next moment she shouted "我要大便啦". *Faint* Out of bo bian I gave in, brought her to restroom but she didn't poo! She requested to go restroom a few times as a result of drinking water non-stop. Although she kept telling me "ultraman is fighting", then I corrected her that it's "ironman". Apparently she didn't enjoy the movie much cos after all the hassles, she fell into deep sleep on her seat, that's also when my real enjoyment came.... That's much better than what I expected it to be.

Maybe she doesn't know what it means by watching movie at her age, I can tell that she's very happy to hang out with us. She smiled and talked very soft all the way. She didn't even cry when I woke her up after the movie, and yet told me: 我看戯睡着廖. That's very cute of her.

"Ironman" received very high publicity and wonderful comments, I don't quite agree. It's not because of the disturbance from Fu Mei Mei, simply because the movie was very empty with not much contents. Some ppl even commented the fighting scence was better off than "Transformers"?! Please la... "Transformers" was so much exciting, colourful and thrilling okay. Hmm... Tony Stark is man. Haha.

Work out at office

I used to lose weight at work. But now, to the contrary, I'm gaining weight at work. If the stress level of my previous job is ranked at 9, my current job is 1 (or could be less than 1? Hiak.) Kinda boring.

Must do something at work! Stand up and do some simple exercise!

May day - Melbourne

I've been thinking of going somewhere for a short trip for quite some time, just that I dunno where to go. I really want to avoid somewhere hot. It would be good if it's a four season country. As yet, it would be best if it won't cost me a bomb.



As I saw this email in the morning few days ago, I quickly go and check whether I could grab this cheap ticket and take the advantage of Wesak holiday. Incredibly, the ticket cost me $468.32 only! So I quickly told my cousin, who apparently was the only I would msn before 8:30am. Who knows he's so ON and told me "go go go", which then pushed me further to call up my other cousin, brother and mum. Subsequently run into my boss's room and told her that I want to on leave. For the whole morning I was so busy with grabbing the tickets, over little bit guilty to say that I was not working at all for the morning. Not just the morning, in fact the whole day, cos in the later part of the day we 4 were very busy chatting in the chatroom. 史无前例.

Sis will be meeting us in Melbourne. The best part is she can also arrive in airport at almost the same timing as us, and fly back to Brisbane at the same time as we fly back to Singapore. Due to long hour flight, I can imagine how tiring it would be on the first day of arrival. Thus, we intend to laze around the city and collect some information at the information centre. In the belief that the two mothers couldn't sleep in flight, they can then rest in the hostel if they want to.

The draft itenerary will be as follow:
Day 1 - Melbourne City
Day 2 - Great Ocean Road
Day 3 - Ballarat
Day 4 - Melbourne City
Day 5 - Philips Island
Day 6 - Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley
Day 7 - Melbourne City & back Singapore

Frankly, I'd feel sorry for myself if I failed to grab the tickets at this cheapest ever price. In the afraid that the tickets on sale would not available should we late, we made the decision almost in half an hour which was really maddening. Except for my mum and aunt who used to be 婆婆妈妈, for which their tickets were booked few hours later, but still manage to grab at the same price. *winks*

Really looking forward to re-visiting Australia 4 years later.

Love fragrance


L'occitane lauched a new set of cherry blossom fragrance sometime ago. As I looked at the brochure I could "feel" the fragrance already. It's difficult that such design and the colour will not catch my attention.


Aiming at this set of product, especially the fragrance touch. 就是很爱香。
