I dislike having to do an appraisal, especially when you know the person appraising you is not being objective enough. All you need to do is to listen to all the negative remarks/comments, and to accept (them) graciously. Oh, you still have to smile and say “thank you very much for your time” to the reviewer after the session even though you are feeling super hurtful and worthless. Sigh!

In just less than 30min, I will be in a room with two reviewers – Mr. Nice guy and Mr. Big Mouth. Judging from their “names”, I am sure you can guess who will be the one shooting all the poisonous arrows at me, right? I wish and hope Mr. Nice guy can help me to shield some of the arrows so that I am not “injured” too badly.

Time is drawing near! Cross my fingers and God, please bless me!

幸福

幸福对每个人来说是什么?

对我而言,幸福是每天早上能和你爱的人一同起身,一同吃早餐,一同步行去上班。
幸福是每天晚上的一句“今天上班一切还好吗?”“有没有被欺负?“。。一句句的问候和关怀都让我觉得幸福。
幸福是当先生和我一起做家务,一起把家里打扫得干干净净的。
幸福是每当我回娘家,妈妈煮我爱吃的晚餐和爸爸不怕麻烦地开车载我回家。
幸福是能向好友诉苦,而他们也很有耐心地听我把话说完。
幸福也是当我有自己的私人时间。做自己想做的事情。。
我要的幸福其实很简单吧?

ARGH!!! I feel super duper irritated by Mr. A today! It is such a torture to work under someone who is so dominating, always instilling fears onto others. I have been praying hard that he will not assigned any jobs to me – I rather not meeting my expected chargeable hours than to work for him! But still, once a while, my prayers do not work L Sigh Sigh

As time goes well, I am beginning to wonder whether I can make really good friend at the workplace. When I first started work, dad has told me that 职场是没有真正的朋友…but I do not believe him then. I have made great friends from my first work place, e.g. Xiang ge, Ah Woo, Lina etc...who I really like to be with. Who says, there are no real friends at work? Dad said perhaps, I was at a government sector then where people did not need to fight in order to climb up the corporate ladders..but now I am in the private sector, my dad’s advice seems to be getting very true..sometime you can literally see people stabbing sharp knives behind someone’s back, some people stepping hard on others in order to climb up the ladder. It is really so scary! Who can I trust now?

Sigh..Now, I realised I could not really confide to people in my workplace, especially when I wanted to complain about certain issues that happened at work. BUT, still, I thank gods, because I can confide to Mr. Lim, to my two dears and to my parents – these are the people who I know will never stab me or hurt me. J

Time passes so slowly today…

I got my all wedding photos from the photographer and I like them a lot! Just by looking at the pictures, I feel happy and these pictures reminded me of the sweet memories that happened that day! =) All thanks to my sisters and brothers for their assistance that day, and not forgetting my two dears for coming all the way to my house in the morning to join in the fun!



Anyway, I celebrated my birthday last Saturday and I am officially 27 years old this year. How sad =( I finally understand why the statement “How old are you?” is a taboo for almost all the women. 27 years old means I have to spend more on facial products, on collagen etc already! Sigh...

But I guess, at the age of 27, I manage to co-own a HDB flat (though I am paying off the loan) and being someone’s wife. These should be considered as a form of achievement, I hope? Haha..

This year birthday celebration was a quiet but nice one. Had a few birthday treats from good friends, like Ah Faan, my two dears, and my colleagues.

Mr. Lim took me to Zhou Kitchen, a Chinese restaurant, for a buffet dinner. The varieties were not too bad but unfortunately both he and I were not feeling too well, and so we left the restaurant within 1 hr. The funniest thing was, the manager of the restaurant was surprised when we called for the bill and even encouraged us to rest and relax a while before continue to feast – as more varieties were expected to be served. But still we did not oblige. Come to think, we should have asked for a discount! Haha.

My dear mama made mee sua with 2 eggs for me – she said it is a form of blessing from the parents. =)

Hopefully things will go well for me going forward…..

P.s: I am going for my wisdom tooth extraction this week! *Scared*
