A Good Start to July

-

I finally found some time to update my blog today after a hectic month in June, which was pretty hectic for me.

  • CPE Audit by SIATP -  The audit was not a surprise to me as it has been three years since I became an Accredited Tax Professional. It was my 1st time being selected for audit. However, the way the administrative details have not been up to mark as I had sent the copies of the attendance certificates for my CPE courses in their self enclosed envelope, but they claimed in an email reply to me that they did not receive my certificates, but they received my cheque payment for the subscription fees, as the receipt that I had requested for had arrived by post. It made me lose sleep that night when I received that rude email as I was worried that where the remaining content of the mail had gone to. My mum was saying that I should send this type of mail by registered post next time. It is until that I called the organisation that they realised their error and apologised for their mistake. I managed to clear the audit.
  • Outstanding Volunteer Award & Long Service Volunteer Award

I was pleased to have receive the outstanding volunteer award & long service volunteer award (10 years) from IRAS. At the same time, I was happy that all my team members who played a part in the e-filing this year got the award as well. It was nice to have worked with all of you, and I certainly look forward to working with you all next year.

  • Pioneer Generation Ambassador – At the request of my mum and a friend of mine, I was roped in to be a PGA to assist them. I must say the training had been fun.
  • Chloe & Gonnie’s wedding

I am pleased that 2 of my long time KTV friends, Chloe & Gonnie finally got hitched. I was happy for them and glad to be invited to their wedding. May I take the opportunity to wish the couple have a happy & blessed marriage.

  • Certificate In Community Development -  This certificate, which I started in Feb 2014 is on course to see its finish line in Jan 2016. I had enjoyed my courses so far, except for one or two. It has been a fulfilling experience so far.
  • A Thank You Breakfast from The Serangoon CC

This was definitely something that my team and I did not expect. We were invited by the management of the Serangoon CC for an early breakfast today to thank us for our efforts at the volunteer e-filing exercise.

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...
