Short Working Day

-
Today was a short working day. I was supposed to have an interview today but it was cancelled by the company at the last min . Well, guess that the company wasn't interested in hiring anyway, so I just told him that, "Please tell your manager to arrange my interview after my office hours as I am having my peak period."

Was thinking to retract my leave application, but LB surprisingly asked me when she was in the lift with me that where I was heading to? In order not to arouse any suspicion, I just told her that I had some family matters to attend to. Anyway, treat it as a break for me, after it meant that I had to double up as an auditor, having to reconcile schedule for my past two tax computations It has been a taxing job to reconcile the figures.

Went to SBS Transit HQ to enquire about my Season Pass. The pass will finally be with me next week. That means a start to my cost savings in transport.

Ka: Sometimes being a gal has its merits. U get doted on & showered with love. Something a guy can't do, because gals are special.

Someone must be surprised that his / her comment is not displayed here.

Pantang- Meaning Things Not To Do In Hokkien

There are certain things which some Chinese are pretty particular with:- Happy and sad events can't clash together within 100 days to a year. If a relative or loved one were to pass away, the immediate family member can't attend a happy event, like wedding & housewarming. The Teochews treat their eldest male grandchild as their youngest son. If you are getting married & your friend who is getting married invites you to his wedding, u are not allowed to attend. The old people say happy events clash. The red packet can't be given twice for a happy event. Likewise for the condolence packet. One should not give shoes or lamp to a birthday boy or gal, as it is believed that you may bring the person to his deathbed. These are some interesting stuff to share, especially to some blog readers who are not living in a place filled with Chinese.

I guess Darling, SR & Rich want to watch "Memiors of A Geisha", especially after the ladies were so engrossed in the book at MPH during our last meeting. It can be afternoon or nite show, but afternoon is preferred as I would like to avoid the crowd shopping for CNY goodies & clothes. I would like to call the following people.

House Visiting & AVietnamese Girlfriend For Me??

I started my day early today at 8.30am. I was helping my mum with the flower decoration & slept at 1am last night. Had received CNY sms messages from my ex colleague, LS, Angela, Rebecca, Darling, Caifeng, Huixuan, Huiyu, Mac, Jaslyn, Joey, Candy , Kelvin, Rich & Mike. Thanks for all your well wishes, my friends. The 1st stop was at my grandma's place, which we were lucky to get a cab almost immediately after waiting for just a short while. In the ride, my mum & I were chatting casually about some issues that happened in S'pore recently, when we actually touched on the old cobbler cheating Vietnamese gals to be his bride. The cabby told us an incident that happened to his friend. His friend, a guy aged 39 had married a Thai gal aged 23 some years ago. Soon after, they became parents to a baby boy. When the boy turned 3, the gal took away the money in the joint bank account with her husband. The savings totalled to about $100,000, which the guy had saved for years fr...
