Volunteering Sat After A Working Public Holiday

Image
I had little choice but to bring back home for my public holiday break on Thursday and worked through the public holiday on Friday as I was asked by my friend, Xiuling to help her out in volunteering for Yio Chu Kang Youth Executive Committee Youth ComShare Program & I was asked by my area’s Integration & Naturalisation Committee to lead a group of new citizens & permanent residents to Gardens By The Bay. Visit to Singapore Cheshire Home It was a fulfilling experience to help out the residents of the home who are much less mobile than me. I certainly had fun playing games and singing for them as well. Photos will be shared at a later date as approval is needed from the home for sharing of photos via blog and social media. Visit to Gardens By The Bay The visit, organised by the Jalan Kayu Integration & Naturalisation Committee was for new citizens and permanent residents who resides in our area. I felt that the visit was quite worth the price, considering that we

Company’s Department Dinner

The company’s tax cum admin department dinner was suggested by my new colleague, Evelyn about a month after she joined us. All of us felt that it was a good idea to have a such a gathering. This was the dinner which also marks my colleague, Anna last working day with us, as she goes on her maternity leave and would rejoin us in early January 2013. Here are some photos taken with our handphones for the event.   I hereby wish Anna all the best for the delivery of her baby.

How Come Wrong Telephone Line Was Terminated?

I had signed up the fibre broadband with Singtel on 20 August but I did not expect it was to be the start of my another nightmare in my 7 year association with Singtel, something similar to what happened when I first signed up MIO TV when EPL crossed over from Starhub to the MIO TV platform, where they gave me a 3rd telephone line when I did not ask for it. I do not think I should terminate my association just yet as I feel that their service is still better than M1 & Starhub, having used the three telcos for internet, pay TV & mobile services before. This is considered as small case. The purpose of sharing the complaint  letter is to highlight the importance of checking your bills and remembering to state your request clearly. I am writing in to express my disappointment in the sales service and customer service department from my home residential line, internet service provider, handphone service provider and pay-tv service provider, Singtel. I had recontracted my Si

I was supposed to do this post last week but had been so busy with my work that I have been bringing it home to clear it, with the hope of meeting the deadline, which is at the end of next month. Evelyn & Yong Jie’s Birthday Celebration An advance birthday celebration for Evelyn, and a belated birthday celebration for Yong Jie, the October couple. The guest list for the celebration was drawn up by the birthday couple, while I was tasked by them and the invited guests to send out the invites & do the gift shopping for the couple. In the end, we settled on a set of couple watches for the couple. We were glad to say that almost all the invited guests, except Jonathan were able to make it for the celebration. I hope the couple find the gift from us useful. We certainly enjoyed the KTV celebration session, dinner cum desert session with them that day. Kian How’s Birthday Dinner The birthday celebration was mooted by me and attended by almost all the invited guests except J
