i just can't wait to blog this!!
wei just called from Switzerland and life there is so amazingly different from here.
- the shops closed at 4-5pm daily
- mcdonald meals are going at Euro 5.30, *2.5 if converted back to S$. piang, think their patties are made of gold is it. daylight robbery.
anyway,
- it's 4-5 degree celsius there
and
- 6pm there when it's 1am here. i can't imagine talking to someone at a diff time zone. feels weird leh.. haha....
-she saw water fall, mountain range made out of pearl white snow in the distance, etc
- bought a T-SHIRT for Euro 29, S$70+, and it's only a Tshirt. her only purchase item until now. poor her.
- people in the office are so courteous and well-mannered. unlike S'porean and CHINA-ESE. boo.
I can't remember much... but it's already excited enough to listen to only part of her adventure.. can't wait for more.. haaa!!
YES!! one more thing... she was CONNED!! by a turkish man...... for 2 kebab sandwiches, and a bag for gummy bear sweets~~ for a blood sucking Euro 49!!! bout 150 bucks loh... but Dirk saved her day! hurray~

my money had been spent on shopping!! im broke big time!!
thanks Yin who told me bout the crazy mega sale at M in short. everything is going for 50 - 70 % off! but the designs were hmm... off~ not up to expectation. bought a few bottoms and that's all.
eeee... Saw 1 is on the TV now. all i did was to listen, not watch. so totally gross and pervertic.
anyway, for those who's looking forward to watching Norbit. let me tell ya. it's not the least funny at all. but the story line was hmmm, ok.
today meet up with Hua and Joe. I had my passport size photos taken out of a digital camera, and developed at a price of 2 bucks for 8. cheap. had our dinner at NYDC. it was good. i had lala croft salad, hua had baked ham sandwich, and i recommended mushroom Ham pasta to Joe. it's superb. really deli.
so, KTV was the next thing we did. at paradiz centre. we were laughing at joe's really really miserably pronounced chinese wordings. hmmm, you need to start learning dear. i had improved in my mandarin. sang till 1130 before we headed home.
more to add. we met 2 super ill-mannered persons today. what a spoiler.
it was a really fun evening today. next time when AMK HUB is completed, we can meet up more often ya, girl. so that's it for today. needa sleep for work tomolo. God Bless my day and yours too...

ok now, for my first day at work. =)
it was...... ok..... for the first day. unit head attached a guy to me to guide me through briefly. training will officially starts on monday. till then, there's no need to go to work. yes! no work for tomolo. brillant!~
ok. something brief about my job scope. initally i wanted to get a job somehow related to my coursework but i guess it's not easy to enter into that field without experience. but today I realised cash transfer involve forex because I have to transfer funds from one country to another. but no actual trade involved. hmm.. somewhere close I'm satisfied enough. smiles~
under my overall team, Rebekah is in charged of E-banking and Australia market. but there's a new unit she is currently setting up to head the New York cash transfer, and im in that team. sounds cool huh (as one of the pioneer batch). but all i can see is just never ending piled up work ahead of me. haa!
bout new people I've met at work. they're.... hmm.... as young as me and even younger. there's only like 3 to 4 senior staff in my team. i can say it's a young and energetic environment. I was talking like non stop today.. haa.. maybe they were thinking im talking a lil too much.. but dun care. i need to break the ice and Im not afraid to do it at all. =) just dun overdo it. superficial yeah.
aunt worked at causeway today. and she said that the Lo'real lady was praising me for my good sales and effort. haha. there are shit people as well as nice people. but it's nice to hear a lil praises to motivate you sometimes.
again. no work tomolo until Monday. going for some shopping again at bugis tomolo. im pretty broke by now. hee. shall update more.
