IRAS VES Appreciation Ceremony 2010

-

I know some of you are happy for me that I won the award for the 6th consecutive year, and are waiting for me to share the photos. I am sorry that I was only to do so this morning on Facebook as I had been busy with my revision for my exam tomorrow and had been tired out with the events happening these two days.

This year was rather different as my volunteer mates and I were mentioned in the Commissioner of Inland Revenue, Mr. Moses Lee’s address. I guessed he could have picked out a few of the e-filers’ comments or the liasion officer’s comment about our great service. I was rather stunned by it at first, but if you were to tell me how to work through the situation at that time again, I would have done the same way again! This was also the first time the Serangoon CC, the centre that I was attached to, had won the top VES Centre Award, which came with $500 for the CC.

Mum, who accompanied me to the ceremony had complained that my thoughts for the exercise were a little lengthy and the powerpoint video show had only a short while to flash it, therefore people may not be able to read finish what I wrote, before it moved to the next screen.

Our team comprising of myself, Haris, Zhihao & Samira also got ourselves the outstanding volunteer award & commendation award for our hard work and effort.

Dinner @ Bacchus @ Dempsey

I joined the Facebook Foodies Club for dinner at Bacchus last night. Yesterday was with a smaller group of people with 11 people. It meant that I had a chance to interact with people and enjoy good food at the same time. I certainly had a good time knowing Deborah, Rene, Wenna, Chris & Catherine. The good part was having my singing buddy, Jonathan around as well, making me able to enjoy the dinner and making friends with relative ease. I must say I enjoyed the food, that I ordered. I ordered the Flumuken,Bawhrust susages and tiramisu cake. You must be thinking that why I ordered so much food. I must say I was very hungry as I didn’t have a filling lunch. Although, it burned a hole in my pocket, but it is certainly good to indulge in myself sometimes! I like the ambience of the restuarant. After the dinner, we indulged ourselves in some German wine before we were asked to pose for photos. After that, we adjourned to Harry’s Bar for a drink and chat session. Jonathan was so afraid

My Hosting Script for The National Day Event

-
I just managed to work out the draft hosting script for the National Day Event I am hosting. I am thankful for all the comments that I have received from my fellow RC members and friends. Just feel that sometimes, no matter whatever you do, some people, no matter for what reasons, will not be happy with the arrangements. I just wish to say that I am already trying my best to try to get this event going, considering the fact, that this is the 1st time I am organising an RC event. I have also tried my best, despite the fact that I would like to have a free hand to organise the event, just like what I usually do for the KTV events I have on Facebook, I accommodated to the requests that I should somehow follow the past years’ format to do the event. I know that I am not very familiar with how things are run at the RC, therefore in the end, my organising committee only made some changes to the event as we had a limited budget to work on. I even volunteered myself to do the hosting for the

June Musings

 It has been a while since I last blogged. Since then, I am settling well into my role, although there were some incomings and outgoings, which are common in any workplace.   I managed to catch a last glimpse of Yishun Orto before it closed on 30 June. I would like Leonard, Wendy & Michael, as without them performing at the Happiest Hour Bar & Bistro, I guess I would never go to this place, as I had not so fond memories of a nearby place during my NS days.   I did not manage to get A* Mei or Jacky Cheung concert tickets this round. It could be a sign for me to build up my savings again after an unstable 3 years on the job front. I hope to stay on this job for a while despite its lack of transport amenities and lack of shelters for rain as it is not often that you can have great teams of colleagues and bosses with whom you can get along well. I guess having a boss who is differently abled helps me to settle in well as colleagues tend to be more understanding and caring.
