25th July 2008, Friday, Rainy day
Today, i felt as if i am at Genting or HK. Its soooooo damm cold.
Woke up in the morning and went to the customer's site for a meeting. Wow, what a long meeting. By the time we finish, 1plus 2 liao.. so went to maxwell for lunch. As usual, ate my fav wu xiang mee fen. which i think my colleague cannot understand why am i crazy over it.
I super like it lor i also dunno why.. it taste very gd.. at least to me.. After that came home. Mum was sick MC for 2 days. I told her she didn't eat enough. she ate lesser than my dog i think. the dog say she has low blood thats y will giddy.
Told her to eat more fat fat lor.. so old liao still scare of fat why my mother so hiao one..
Then rested a while went to my new hse to take a look. Surprise that my contractor worked today. He has cleanup the hse and the parquet is done up already. overall looks ok to me dunno my cat hubby can accept a not. i think only we notice until this kind of minor minor things. i dun think other people will notice it..
Feel so lazy today. Its the weather's fault again.. so cold and comfy.
Next week will be a busy week. This week i tried calling 2 companies to see if we can arrange a meetup to intro our services to them. Hope i can build new accounts and expand my account coverage. To my surprised, i call 2, both are ok to meet me.. without any specific agenda, they also want to meet me.. lucky lor. I hope after going thru with them on NCS services and products offerings, hopefully they can give me some business.
Scheduled quite alot of appointments hoping to get new accounts. hope give me some rewards man.. lol

24th June 2008, Thursday, Rainy Day..
My mood is like the weather, gloomy, moody and sian. dunno why maybe mood swing. hahaa..
Today's rain affected my feeling, my mood to work, my everything. i laze around at hm till lunch then visited my hse to take a look at the parquet but when i was there, they just started like not long ago.. wasted trip.. hope they fill up the gaps which i felt it was pretty obvious.
I find them quite rude cos they are a batch of youngsters. But they have pretty gd workmanship except for some areas which are near to the door.
I wanted to post on langkawi.. but when i open the folder, i saw 600+ pictures.. i didnt know we took so much.. so sian lazy to QC so i closed it.
I open the photobook that i am creating for my ROM pictures.. i see the photos then i am lazy to edit and design so i close it again..
I surf the internet and forums.. i find them so boring.. the questions i ask, they dun answer me but talk abt rubbish..
I surf blogs, no 1 is updating their blog..
I went to work in the afternoon, no one was really around. then i finally found someone for tea.. luckily they are around for tea then at least time passes in a faster mode.
Sat in bus, listened to mp3, then i notice howcome the songs so sad..
When i reach home, the hse is empty..
Just not my day...

Rewards after a year of work
Today is officially my 1 year at NCS. Overall comment, its ok a place for me to stay for at least the next 2 years. I hope :)
Today got a letter from my boss. Its a yearly review performance letter. And since NCS has done very well last year and i was graded average, we are very well rewarded! Although i have worked 1 full calendar year but according to the financial year, April07 to april 08, i have only worked 9 mths. and my bonus is pro-rated to 3/4 year!
but i am still satisfied with my bonus and i had an increment! very gd increment for me cos they are aligning their staff's salary to the market price. hence, i got a double digit % increment. Which means to say i was underpaid when i joined them! kns cheat me!
Well, at least now they have increased and i think i will have a super hard time finding my next job!
Gd luck! I hope next year will be the same but i think hard.. heard this year's rewards is the best in history. maybe once in a lifetime? whahaha..
Oh yah updates on my hse. lights up, tml polishing parquet. in progress of retifying some of the damage tiles due to drilling of accessories. should be in time to complete next week. :)
My grandma brought a very expensive set of bedsheet set for us for our wedding. i heard its more then $200! i almost fall off the chair when i heard this.. its pink in colour! its nice and simple. but definately not worth the price. well, old people are like tat.. like to spend all their $$ and say i keep so much $$ for what. what to do.. just thank her and treat her for lunch ba! :)
Thanks grandma. i love u!

Darling's First day of work
today is my darling's first day of work. from today onwards, i will have no more driver to fetch me to and from work. :(
i know it took him alot of courage for him to step out a place where he has stayed for more than 7 years. i know he is stepping out for our sick and our future.i will support dar dar in his new job cos i know he is working hard for our future.
somehow when he dun fetch me to and from work, i felt that i miss him more than normal. dunno is it mentality problem? i felt we spoke lesser, time spent together is shorter.. hahaha maybe its just the first day and i am not used to it.
Ke lian dar dar have to travel so far to jurong to work. lesser slp. got to wake up earlier. reach home later. i hope he get used to it and love his new job and most importantly I want him to be happy :)
to reward him, i fried a nice sunny egg and his fav lunchone meat for him on top of what my mum has cooked for dinner! haha am i a gd wife? :P

Our Budget Nest
Hello all,
I have forgotten to post abt my hse. We have been very slow in our reno cos we dun have enough time to buy the things which we want to buy. Our contractors are soo fast.. they finish everything faster than what i have expected.. and my langkawi trip wasted 1 week of time shopping time, hence, my contractor stop work for abt 1.5-2 weeks becos i haven buy toileties. i haven buy lights. i haven buy switches i haven choose colors i haven confirm the location of the basin. i haven confirm my electrical things. i haven everything!! there was 1000001 haven things......
Lucky dear and i try to snake out during our working hrs to do some quick shopping like switches, tolieties. we also haven buy our furnitures. finally last week things starts to move abit faster. we choose the colours, bought the tolieties, brought lights. i think most of the things more or less done. unless i missed out things. next monday dear will start a new job. he has no more time to be my driver, no more time to snake out, no more time for me! sob.. :(
Well, life is like tat.. have to give and take something.
Congrats to emi who found her dream dog! its sooooooooooo cute.. like a toy dog.. whahaha..
So pictures of my hse now... Langkawi post.. another day ok? hahahahaa
Floor Plan of the house
When we first got our floor plans, we went to get serveral quotations. but all of them did not revert back. Dunno is i am not re-doing alot of things, or its too early to quote me. so i was quite unhappy with them. In the end, didnt went back to them even when i have my actual dates.
When u step into the house - Before (the very cheena floor tiles and very cheena cornice)
In the end, we shortlisted a 2 ID and 2 contractor.
Summit Design
the coordinator was very pushy and irritating. called me non-stop everyday to ask me to sign on his quote to confirm. i was so piss off and rejected him after a few days of haunting. Price was average. workmanship lousy!
Ideal House
Ideal house was the opposite of summit design. they hack care me. i ask for discount they gave me 200 as if i m a begger. we very much wanted an ID but his price was a little out of our budget. but among all the quotations from ID, he was the cheapest. ID only not comparing with contractors
When u step into the house - After (the new homo shiny, glossy tiles. This picture is before polish! but its already so shiny)
Contractor A - Bf's cousin's fren
Price was reasonable, close to ideal house but when i check on the HDB web, he isn't registered, means he brorrow's others license to renovate my hse. being a scary cat, didnt want to take any risk so gave up on him. anyway he isn't the cheapest
Contractor B - SAM HUP - Mr Ang
Very nice, reasonable honest uncle. he gave the most resonable quote. and everytime we talk he will say "mei wen di" - no problem. dun worry. can one.. hahaha
TV wall - Before
TV wall - After (seal up the hollow gap to mount our LCD )
New L-Box Celling (lights not installed yet)
At first we was quite worried without an ID, we need to be the ID ourselves. We spend alot of time choosing tiles choose until head also big. went to the tiles shop like 3-4 times? worry that it will not turn out nice..
Kitchen - No Changes (traditional cheena kitchen)
Kitchen was the only place that is not touched during our reno. i would very much want a new nice stylish kitchen but when u do a kitchen u need to put 10k aside. being on tight budget, we gave in and accept the current kitchen condition. maybe few years down the road when our pockets are not so tight, we can do a revamp on the kitchen.
Master BedRoom Toliet - Before (super old toliet)
Master BedRoom Toliet - After (tolieties not up yet! very dirty!!)
To avoid quarrels each of us gets to choose our own tiles according to our own taste. Each of us handle 1 toliet.. HAHAH like tat he wont say i nv let him choose mah.. gd idea right? master bedroom is choose by miss choosy me.. common toliet by him..
Common BedRoom Toliet - Before (eee yer toliet)
Common toliet - After (my hubby prefer white toliet. but i am opposite so each 1 one toliet)
Common toliet is damm big and i my camera cannot take the whole pic in 1 photo. so splited into 2.. ownself imagine ok?
So whose toliet is nicer??? vote vote pls.. msn me and tell me whahaha
Bocany Floor - i love this colour
2nd lvl parquet flooring - before polish!
New Switches! - White Legrand Switches
Actually wanted to buy dark gray but the box behind is only availble in white. Stupid rite? so only new flats with consealed box in the wall can use the new dark gray switches. its soo nice lor but too bad i cant use.
