Great Christmas Means...

Lots of food.
Pasta, pizza, potato chips, cupcakes, salad & the cheena kind namely bee hoon, otah, curry vegetable, vegeterian claypot rice. And more today as it's our department belated Christmas lunch - Brotzeit at Raffles City.

Less work. More play.
Boss declared half day off for us this morning and 'chased' us out for lunch by 12pm! Last working day of the year is brought half a day forward. What more can I ask for?

Shopping.
Within 1 hour or so after lunch today, I'm a happy owner of a Springfield white shirt (on sale), a Warehouse brown bag (on sale) & a Topshop dress (membership discount). And thus I'm done for CNY shopping - a good excuse.

Mr. Grumpy is sleeping now... His appetite is unbelievably good lately. Either that, he's aiming for the 65 mark on the scale. Chicken rice for lunch and Mac meal at 6pm. While driving back, he told me he will be hungry an hour later. Can't get any fatter...

Anyway, have a great weekend!
HS, can you send us the photos soon? Can't wait to upload them.

2016, a year to remember

June has always been my favourite month. But it didn't start off well as I had my first zero sale, boo hoo. Never mind I thought. I've had a zero, what could be worse? Another zero of course, wtf! Fast forward to June 18, the mahjong khakis celebrated my birthday and surprised me with a cake. June 19, celebrated with the in-laws and ended the night with some sinful durian. June 20. 230am. My phone rang. An unfamiliar number and I was so tired I decided to ignore it and switched my phone to night mode. 330am. Heard the phone beep. It was the FB message alert. For some strange reason, I opened my eyes to check my phone. Two missed calls from my brother and the first line of the FB message read your grandpa is in critical condition... I started shaking. Returned my brother's call and he said the same thing, proved that I wasn't dreaming. I hung up and read the FB message my uncle left me and yes it read my grandpa's in critical condition at Tan Tock Seng...

放下

2016年虽然只过了一半但我却学会和体会了很多。 二月决定放下坚守八年的工作岗位去创业。 因为薪水大减,这几个月来放下一些物质的欲望。 但也因为这份新工作放下了许多压力和不必要的公司或人事纠纷。 有时也必须放下一些不适合这行业的做法,诚恳学习这行的窍门。 六月看到爷爷安详地离去更让我体会的能够放下的人才会快乐。 我会继续努力学习放下。

Out with brother

We look alike, don't we? Something small for ourselves :) We had wanted to go to Bishan but didn't think there's much to do so we went Orchard instead. It's been a while since Mr. Grumpy dislikes going to crowded town. Was thinking hard what I wanted for my super belated birthday treat and thought of the Korean restaurant in Chinatown... So off we went. Kimchi pancake Seafood steamboat - yummy! Rice cake before & after - barely touched because we over ordered! After dinner, it was reminiscing at OG. I had a great time thanks to my brother.  More to come :)
