Birthday Surprise

I went to work on my birthday today. This was the 3rd successive year that I was working on my birthday. Someone called me and asked me why I was still working. Apparently, she has not been paying attention to what I have told her. I just wonder if she practises selective hearing or likes to make news out of nothing. She claims that she is busy with work, but from the looks of it, she has caused some hoo ha again. The person whom I am talking about is the same one that I mentioned a few posts ago. Anyway, I shall not let my mood be spoiled by this person as it is bad luck to be angry on one’s birthday.

I decided to make my official entry to the Big 3 Club today by:-

  • Sharing my joy by buying my own birthday cake from TCC.

I got the 1st cake, Kalamansi Wonderland for them as I thought it is not too sweet and would be suitable for the seniors in my office. It is good that they enjoyed the cake. I would like to thank the guy who always served me when I am at TCC International Building branch for the efficiency of the order. My boss gave me Istean vouchers as my birthday present after hearing that it was my birthday.

  • Organising a dinner treat as a start to promote interaction among colleagues

I felt that the dinner went well, as I had a chance to get to know Jinn Der, Sing Chien & my new colleague, Wee Yong better, although there were no female colleagues who joined us. Maybe these colleagues of mine were more of a homely bunch of gals. But I certainly didn’t expect them (Chloe, Yun Fah, Shao Ting, See Ying & Agnes) together with Wilson to get me the first gift. Sing Chieh the 2nd gift & Jinn Der gave me the 3rd gift. I shall open it when I am free later as I am really tired now. Going to sleep soon after my hair dries up.

I would like to thank the following people for their sms and messages on facebook.

Just in case, if you are wondering why Senior Minster of State for MTI, Mr Lee Yi Shyan wished me happy birthday as well, the answer is I have met him before at a community event.

And another piece of news to share before I hit the sack, I am going to be interviewed by a community magazine in my neighbouring district to share about my Volunteer e-filing experiences in the past 6 years!

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.

This post has been posted on Monday, 9 Jan 2006 at 9.56am & edited on Monday, 9 Jan 2006, 7.05pm. I am trying to plan for a movie gathering, with the option of these two movies in mind. 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. Darling Richard Rebecca Krys (Darling, please help me ask her, scared she not reading this!) Darling's sis ( Darling, u can ask your sis along) My cousin, Jolene ( wonder if she is busy with her new house interior design) Dates & Time Slots For Choices 19 Jan 2006 (Thu) nite 20 Jan 2006 (Fri) nite 22 Jan 2006 (Sun) afternoon & nite 23 Jan 2006 (Mon) nite 25 Jan 2006 (Wed) nite 26 Jan 2006(Thu) nite 27 Jan 2006 (Fri) nite We can have our dinner/lun...

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...
