Half Happy Day

HHB15

I messaged Ms C this morning, while on my way to work to see if she got the flowers and chocolate which her colleague collected on her behalf the other day.

Quite soon, I got a reply saying that I do like it very much, thanks again.

I always feel happy to have made someone's day a little brighter.

Wonder why the b*** & my lady boss enjoy spoiling my happy moment. First it was the b***, who asked why I didn't tell her to review the submissions for the companies without any activities. Logic tells you that there is no computation or calculation involved, just need to fill up the forms with zero & cross the relevant boxes. Do you need to see this? If I show you, you say is a waste of time, so I gave it to my boss.

My lady boss has remarked that Dec was not a good time for me to take exam. Just remembered what pal was smsing me something similar to what she said the other day too. I felt like telling my boss, if you had not held back the accounts & changed my workflow, I wouldn't be rushing like mad now. I don't even have enough sleep, let alone study.

The last thing I need was my mum to nag about my job hunt and my work. I told her I rather do something that I enjoy doing or am familar with, then explore a new area. I feel that Singapore employers do not give mid career switcher a chance at all sometimes.

She also kept harping that praying would help me in finding a job. This is something that my brother & I do not agree. For me, it is just another method of destressing. Basically, I go because I wish to spend quality time with her as we are all busy working nowadays.

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.

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...
