what is a good buy

Mr intellect, asked. What is a Good Buy?

a good buy is when the product, comprising of favourable design and quality is bought with a monetary value lower than perceived. of course, as low as possible is the best, like, at least 40percent off.

there, short and sweet.

the ans of course comes from a personal point of view of a cheapskate, bargain hunter out to maximise her limited dollars n becoz she derives unexplained happiness from buying stuff on sale.

Good Buys are also products bought with Further Reduced prices at quality shops. hahaa, with such prices, the SP is comparable to This Fashion! but at higher quality!!

okay, i must confess, i indulged in a few of "good buys" in just 2 days! esp when i wasnt supposed to buy anything for myself save a bikini for a birthday girl. n i was shopping for it with Mr Big Guy who said he could be steamed from seeing too many of the too-sexually-arousing bikinis hanging in the shops. *roolllls eyes. ( i geddit, it's just a joke.)

oh, i saw those Taiwan jelly thinggy at the Taka Food Fair. they r simple oiishi ne!!! hohoho, i am going to get some of them back with me.

great bosses

generally, i have great bosses in my dpt and in the company. that is just plain luck and nothing more. great bosses are met and not pre arranged.=)

i've got a immediate superior who doesnt scream at me when i get thiings wrong but talk thing through nicely. i've got a kind marketing director who has patience to show me through the steps and always have a minute for me to ask questions. and finally the big-big boss, the managing director of the company itself, doesnt mind walking to the marketing coordinator to pass her the documents instead of her walking to him for the documents.

haix. i kana teased by my mktg director that the MD made the effort to walk towards me instead of the other way round. aiyooooo. dun make it sound political or it has hidden meaning, please. i rather just take it that he is a really nice and humble person who doesnt mind walking a few steps. afterall, our office not that big what. hahahahahaha.

in all, the bosses are great, nice and humble people. n i love them!=)



i also discovered that i can be happy over non-issue. hee. for example, XXX from Japan is coming to office!! XXX with that great chinese/us-eng/japanese accent which i just found so sexy!!!!! whahahahah. XXX the one with the sexy accent said he is lookin forward to meet me. hohohoho. okay. excuse me while i am being bimbotic.

being in this work env, i got to hear so many diff accents and languages. still, i can never get over the image of a ang-moh speaking perfect Beijing chinese. i just find it amazing... it is like, seeing the color white and have to call it yellow.

happiness is a choice

ZH asked me, why am i always so happy everyday?

on reflex, i told him cause happiness is a choice. but that is just a quote i remember from someone's msn nick or something.

on second thought, he thinks i am happy, always, probably because everything he sees/talk to me, i am happy. i am wondering, am i happy because of him?

after my retribution for shooting my mouth off, i was/am down. hah, who would use "happy" to describe me? i am permanently scarred. the fright i wrote about in my previous entry lingers. i cant be relaxed if he is near me. a single wrong adjective cant possibly warrant so much hatred in a normal less-egotistical person, right? (haahah, still taking every chance to shoot him.)

i do think back abt what i wrote. i need to say, i probably over-reacted from his jokes too. the thing is, i just see him no smooth. everything some1 i dont like do, just irks me lor. n i kana threatened over it.-.-, for airing my feelings.

people r leaving. boss even sat us down to get feedback. i refrain from tellin her there is absolutely no way i would stay after my contract ends. hahaha. unless u pay mi two thousand lor. kekekekkeke. there, i am money minded, too. but i love myself so its all right. LOL.

moving on-saga ends

Hi guys n gals,

just want to shift the outlook of my blog entries. cause i dun do hatred or bear grudges. just need a couple of more days to drop out of my angry/sad mode then i will totally be outta this episode. again i emphasis the fact that i admit that i was wrong.(to a certain extent)

in any case, i will never speak to this man who had raised his voice at me over such a non-issue and spoke to me so threateningly.

in a way, he scared me. i dont ever want to speak to him. i guess ... he scared me into being voiceless around him.

this was a guy who had crushed on me, u know. when he crushed on me, he was ... almost bending backwards to let me have my way. hahahaha. how fast a man can change and that is scary too.

saga continues

i cant let go of what happened on the 10th july 2007.

his stupid words keep burning in my mind and my clever retorts had to be bite back. i really hate this. i hate being beaten down just because the other party is unreasonable and angry and i am not. i hate having to back off because i was ASKED TO by my boss. i hate that i lost the chance to show the people ard me that i am very capable of a verbal fight. i hate that ,since i am never gonna talk to self centred jerks anymore, i am never getting a chance to shoot such people left, right, center, front and back.

yes, like any normal bitchy girl, i want to retaliate but i cant and I HATE IT.

and i just read his blog, his side of the story.( HOW could i NOT read?)

he makes perfect sense.

i did judged things superficially. which is the only way things could be judged whhhhat. i was giving my opinions formulated after observations of physical actions! pls advise, how else to judge?

in any case, I WAS WRONG to do that. here, i apologize. i am not afraid to apologize when i am wrong OK? i apologize becoz i didnt know abt the hardships he had to go through. because before this, he told stories about how he collected V3s and PSPs as toys and treated his parents to the very best, how am i supposed to know that he is very tight every month, if he chose to leave those details of him scimping and saving out?


so even though his actions technically qualified as what i described, i still cant use those words to describe his actions.


i am supposed to "grow up and fuck off."



ohhhhhhhhhh. that's very grown up of u.



and i also come to realize, this is simply a clash of opinions. things dun have to be so ugly. personnel things dun have to brought into the office.

the source of the problem, is my ignorance and misinterpretation of the situations.

is that a very big deal? isnt this problem correctable?

while his focus on this whole saga is on the words money-minded, mine werent really on it. the focus of the entry was Lack of Generosity.-.-

shocking

i had to deal with child nearing 30 years old today.

he pouted. got angry. got pissed off. he folded his arms n glared at me. the anger fuming in his eyes was scary. his tone was interrogative and accusing. how ironic that he accused my words of being accusing and defamatory when i merely stated the truth as seened from my own 2 and sometimes 4 eyes.

there was a mother figure and later a father figure to make sure things stay in control in the room.

he raised his voice. his words , after i told him to be softer, were :"u wrote on the internet n now u r scared the office knows??!!?????" the mother told him to calm down. well, how about it is more about being considerate for others n not disturb others at work with the fuss u r kicking up? as illustrated, self-centredness. tell mi, how else can i describe this action?

dear POS, knowin me, there is so many things i could have shoot at him til he corrodes of acid and yet i didnt. since the mother figure ask mi not to aggravate it.

i apologize. without skippin a beat.i was meek. i half whhispered compared to his bellows. i guess thats y every1 knows its not sincere, but thats beside the point. at least, i, the small ignorant sister in that room, apologized to the older boy, in a bid to smooth the hurt big-ass-fat ego n pride.

our exchange, roughly. (here i am, running another risk of steeppping on his bloody tail, but GUESS WHAT. I DONT FREAKIN CARE ABOUT STEPPING ON YOUR TAIL AFTER TODAY.)

him:"what is this entry all about? why are u accusing me of such things like being money minded and all. do u know i need to pay for my EVERYTHING and every month is a tight month. i kana cheated of $$!!?? by a friend ????" He proceeded to throw a printed copy of my entry onto the table. wow. well prepared to show the evidence.

me:" okay. i didnt know. sorry i misinterpreted then. in this case, if i am wrong, i apologize for it. you can always prove i am wrong..."

him:" why should i prove u wrong??????????? after all, u said i am a unforgiving, narrowminded person in ur blog!!!!!!!! SO WHY SHOULD I PROVE YOU WRONG?!"

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is that stupid or is that stupid. i was so absolutely dumbfounded by his words that i was momentarily stunned. STUNNED! totally!! all right let me educate u why, since i didnt have the chance to, just now.

THIS IS because...

drumroll please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



if u dun prove mi wrong, u can only prove me right, OK?!!!!!

there is nothing in between.





GEDDIT??

him:" I am Not money minded. all my friends know that i am not fussy abt monee."

me:" good. then they will know i am wrong and they will stand for you!"

him:" hello. it is on the internet, EVERYONE knows!!!!!!!!!! my friends n family can happen to read it! How can u accuse me of such untrue things?"

me: speechless.

if u can dun care enough to prove me wrong, why would u care abt complete random stranger's opinion of u. and do u think INTELLIGENT people form opinion of others just by one SINGLE entry?

and hello? u mean, everyone is your friend lah. all 8 billion people in this earth know is it? my blog only my own close peeps read ok. they DUN KNOW YOU. stop being so thick skin n self centred n think every1 paused to worship your image. i never tell any1 in the office to read. if they read n know what i think of u, SO WHAT? are you scared of something?????????????????

are u scared what i am saying is the truth?

okay, no more energy to give u guys the POS a blow-by-blow account of the intergoration.



i am SOOOOOOOOOOO glad this trip happened and ended with such a grad finale. i love seeing true colors.

traits of a CMI

If my dear girl friends remenber what I updated them about my lack of social life, they will remmenber that i mentioned about Financial Mismanagement and Lack of Genorosity as flaws in a man.

Now, i will add Self-Centredness into above list too.

And the number one trait that i ABSOLUTELY hate is Lack of Generosity. and ppl, dun mix up thriftiness with Lack of Generosity. Generosity is about being caring, accepting, forgiving and harmomious.

now u know what i hate in a man.

5th july

uninspiringly, my entry title is named fifth july.

i sensed something has changed yet i cant put into words. yet if i put into words, words can be misinterpreted.

sigh.i feel irritated n depressed. definite signs of pms. grrrrrrrrrrrr.

did u watch Switched starring Fann Wong n Jeanette Aw? one line has been stucked in my head.
" I DIDNT ask to be born ugly! why am i still suffering so much? Heaven must like playing jokes a lot on me." Fann Wong, said, crying bucket of tears as well.

yup, today or this entire week, so far, has been my feel-ugly days. another definite sign of pms.

i really hope it wont come until after 9 july.

my Assistant Mktg Mgr will be flyin to bkk to join us to shop on Sunday ahead of her business trip on Monday. wonder how would it be like to shop with 2 other girls with such different likes. i forsee myself wondering by my own... i hope i dont get lost.

tomorrow is grad day. honestly, the grad gown is not as hideous as i previously had thought. haha. thank god, especially if i compare it to TP. okay, no more comments. i look forward to makin myself less ugly tmr, n meet my buddies.

though firewire will be kinda weird, since M divorced K from the circle of friendship. aiyo. i dun geddit n i wont even try la. in this case, friendship was sacreficed indirectly of BGR. and for a B who is no longer a BF.

at work, i am practically working on a day by day basis. kinda lost, in a way, even tho they said i am working under whatever n whatever. oooh, i must mention, Rui from Hella Japan, has such a sexxxxxy accent!!! kekekekkekeke, kinda british but he is chinese. overall, sexy accent.

hahaha, i think i have a thing for accent.

my mother is thinking of how to celebrate my 21st birthday. but i dun wan wanna celebrate myself. i just wish to have my close friends celebrate for me, instead of me turning the bday into some sort of project mgt, sending out invites , chossing a party dress n gathering ppl at some place.


judging from my character, i am not likely to want it to be any sort of Event.

okay, if my gd friends read this, remember to celebrate for me, not wait for me ask K?? heehee. * pls take this super duper big hint. its only six months away!!!!!
