太感动了!
刚刚爸爸通过messenger转寄了一系列摄影作品的网络牵引,说实在是太感动了(被感动到流泪的地步),所以叫我去看看。 他还说这作品-“俺爹俺娘”,让他想起他的父母(就是我的爷爷和奶奶),然后叫我告诉他观后感。

对某些人来说可能这些只是很普通的相片,但是它背后的故事相当感人。我一边看一边强制自己眼眶里打转的泪不要留下来,鼻子也酸酸的。看完以后,眼泪差点就夺眶而出了!*噢,很眼浅嗬?!*

很久没被感动了吗?去看看吧... 希望看了以后会懂得珍惜及孝敬双亲。

爸爸妈妈,我爱你们!

Being called jie-jie
Kembang post ahead. Be warned!!! *kihkihkih*

I briefly mentioned about the department dinner in the earlier post and that I won one of the lucky draw. One thing I left out was -

Before the dinner starts, we mingled at different tables. There were some who brought their child along. Then I spotted one colleague who brought her baby daugther (who happens to be about 2 months younger than my girl). Naturally I went to her table to have a chit-chat. As we were chatting, this manager who sat next to her interupted me.

"Hey, she's calling you jie-jie!" *gesturing at his daughter sitting by his side*

"Opps sorry I didn't hear. Guai!!" *acknowledged the girl, and of course grinning from ear-to-ear*
"How old is your daugther?" I asked the manager.
"5 years old."
"Hmm... same age as my son!"
"Hor, then cannot call you jie-jie already!" *turning to daughther* "Must call auntie!"
"Nevermind nevermind... call me jie-jie is good enough!"
"Hahahahaha!" Everyone laughs.

Just for the sake of updating...
It's been quite a while since my last post. I'd like to apologize to those who visited but left with disappointment due to no new post (chewah perasan!!! as if I have a following...). Anyway, here I am attempting to write something, even though my mind is blank!! Hey at least I try okay...

For a start, may be I'll just blab about what's keeping me busy for the last two weeks. First, there's the annual department dinner at Park Royal Hotel in Batu Feringghi. I car-pooled with other colleagues since hubby is taking the car. We arrived late due to traffic jams, and seats with the usual gang were already taken. Fortunately we were able to get our seats at last! I'd jokingly told my colleague after we settled down at our table before the dinner starts, that it's going to be a lucky night for me because my draw number was 198 and we happened to sit at table 18! And true to my prediction, I was a lucky gal for I won one of the lucky draw (nothing grand la... just a hamper)! Teeheehee... :)

Last week I had the opportunity to attend a 3-day training of '7 Habits of Highly Effective People'. It's a very good workshop; I'd say it's thought provoking as we were constantly asked to do reflections, think about our life mission(s), our priorities, building the emotional bank account etc. I don't expect to become more effective overnight just by attending this training. At least now I'm aware of what I can do to become a more effective person, and will strive to practice the Habits consciously. Truth be told, practicing the Habits is not as easy as it sounds. Even the certified facilitators don't claim to be an expert, but constantly learning to improve and practice in everyday life.
Now at the end of 2005, it's the dreaded time of writing self-accomplishments again! Haih... everybody hates it but still gotta do it. Going to have to crack my brain again! :(

Unable to log into gmail
Since last week I've been having problems to log into my google email accounts. The page failed to load everytime I press enter after keying in the password. I've tried deleting the cookies, temporary files, even histories! Still page fails to load. I've even tried to log in from another computer; same problem. So definitely not the computer's fault. The accounts seemed alright as I can log in to change my profiles etc., just the email page wouldn't load. Don't know what is wrong with google. I checked their forum, seems some other also facing the same problem.
Just in case you had sent email(s) to any of my gmail accounts, I would not be able to reply until the problem is resolved. Not that I purposely don't want to reply okay... :P
Have a nice day!

Happy Birthday My Boy!

Tomorrow will be my boy’s 5th birthday. My original plan was to bake him a cheese sponge cake to celebrate on Sunday, but it didn’t turn out nicely. :( Sponge cake is a bit tricky! Therefore the idea of letting him decorate the cake with colourful M&M’s on whipping-top had to be scrapped. We just had the cake as is, during tea time.

Tomorrow evening I will buy a simple cake after work so that he can blow the candles after our dinner. As for birthday present, I’ve bought him trolley bag weeks ago. He will like it since he was always pulling his school friends’ bag, according to his teacher at school.

To my dearest darling boy,

Happy Birthday!

Love always,
Mama
