Selamat Hari Raya eve! Govt paid out! Wee~ Money money come... Going to spend it tml le.. lol...
Am busy with work... Today cos it's raining during lunch, me and my colleague decided to eat downstairs at my workplace. Both PastaMania and Sakae Sushi got lotsa ppl, we ended up eating ba chor mee.. The auntie was so generous with her chilli.. It was actually not bad, especially the fishballs were different from others.. It was deep fried and the inside of the fishball has soup.. Hmm.. how to say leh.. It's nice lah.. but dunno why ba chor mee inside got one fishball.. maybe i'm in luck...
Nowadays quite like one song, Cry on my shoulder... Nice song loh.. except for the awkward movements that the singers were doing.. Their voices were pretty good...

Counting down to F1 & updates
Yah, everyone is talking abt it... I know.. I'm looking forward to it as well..
For the normal OL like me, I just hope that the F1 finishes soon and I can shun shun li li smoothly return to take my Bus 70, which happens to go pass Nicoll Highway there and genna jam in the mornings due to F1 road blockages.. (..... Candice ranted on complaining abt the inconveniences caused due to this F1...)So I'm partly looking forward to it to end soon and get on with my usual life.. I din want to join the MRT and NEL ppl with the jam...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It helps Singapore generate more money and so many big shots are making their way to the Little Red Dot..
Confirmed Coming: Ppl like Michelle Yeoh, Big S, Small S & husband, Jackie Chan, Jet Li
Rumoured coming: David Beckham, Naomi Campbell (not sure abt the spelling), Paris Hilton
Others: Couple of millionnaires and businessmen from all over the world gathering here as well
Will the non-asians deliberately travel half the globe to watch a race? Maybe for the fans, it is worth the effort and money. Sure, the organisers really made a lot. Or rather, Singapore also made a lot. Hotel rates get high, taxi fares also get a chance to increase price, shopping suddenly have midnight shopping. . Blah blah blah... Come Money Come into Singapore... Oh, one good thing to note also, like at least got 3 ERPs are closed during the 3 days (well, Sunday dun have lah so 2 days nia). Good for drivers?

Oh yah, I received an email saying about F1 accident even before the race itself.. It also mentioned that ppl opening it must not have a weak heart.. Here's a photo of it...

Today experienced a super jam! Due to F1 again, roads has been routed and I got stuck at Suntec for freaking 20mins.. even walking is faster than the bus.. But I can't alight at Suntec Bus Stop, so no choice, sms-ed my superior that I will be late.. Ended up late for 5mins.. Good thing I always reach office early... Tml will start taking NEL le..
Today one of my big shots sent an email and informed that I will represent the division to do something. Another activity... OMG, the division (whole group of 100+ pax).. Dunno what's coming up for me.. I only reply 'noted with thanks' loh.. Should embrace new things in new environment..
Lunch was @ Amoy Street.. Yummy Jap food.. Supposed to spend less than $3, ended up spending $6 on Salmon set.. But still worth it cos it's yummylicious..
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sis sms-ed and informed that she met Louis Koo and Big S upclose and many pics taken... **Envy**

Happy 1 week!
Today marks my one week here at my new job.. Coping well? Hmm.. should be bah.. ok loh...
Undergone a test today! It's a 'die-die-gotta-100%-pass' test. I spent 1hr reading up the modules.. Was a 30mins test, 30 questions.. my first try I spent 9mins+, ended up, FAIL @ 93%. Tried again, 2nd try finished at 6mins+, FAILED again @ 96%! ARGH! So demoralised... So went for lunch and decided to try the test after that... Finally at 3rd try I asked my colleagues to help, of which they told me they forgotten le... Faint.. I heck care le.. Finished in 5mins+... Ended up PASS.. 100%...
Had been asked to represent my dept in one of the activities held... Looking forward to knowing more ppl in the company...

3rd day @ work.. had more or less understand what I'm going to do.. Not bad.. Little challenging and should be able to cope...
Today met up with my Director of my division.. Wow, he knows my name. And the fact that he made an effort to remember all our names had wowed me.. For your info, my division has more than 120 staff (including 90+ CSOs) and he is able to call everyone by their names! I'm impressed. My new work place is super big, with so many divisions and departments.. I have yet to know all yet..
Jia you Candice.. It's only the third day... ^^

160908 - Tuesday
My second day @ work! Hoot hoot!
Am starting to like the working environment. The people in my dept are very nice peeps.. My induction prog took 2 days but I can't finish all..
Till now, am overwhelmed with information abt the organisation. It has so many divisions and departments and sub-depts! Still trying to figure out everything.. Everyone has been telling me that it's okay, it takes time.. I'm trying to absorb as much as I can..
Am glad that I am here...
Candice is happy...
Candice is happy...

Happy Monday!
Okay, I haven't been updating my blog for so awfully long time.. Elaine (my sis) is saying my cats are updating more often than I do.. (Cos she's doing the updating for them of cos..)
So here's my maiden entry (for Sept)
Updates!
Moving on, I am no longer working at the Y- Company, for those who may like to know.. I moved onto govt sector where you need SingPass to log in. Am starting my new job next Monday, 15 Sept. Exactly one month after I left my previous job.. Thought I will slack for a longer time (cos I kinda quit without a job).. A bit ambitious right? Who says must secure a job first before you quit? 老娘就是不想干，在家摇脚也爽... So I bravely tendered without a job..
My Plan was:
Quit in July, Last day in Aug, Start Find Jobs in Early Sept, Start work by End Sept.
My Actual was:
Quit in July (28/07/08), Last day in Aug (15/08/08), Find jobs (sent out resumes in Sept), Start work (15/09/08)
It was just what I wanted for.. I think the 神明显灵.. My prayers to 观音 was heard. Hohoho...
Happy, cos no longer a non-profit le.. Hello to Bonus(es)!!
==================================================================
Last last Sat (30/08/08) went Sentosa again! This time round, went with Michelle and Jimmy...
We went to Butterfly Park.. First time inside.. I'm not a fan of butterfly (due to long long time ago watch the Singapore Serials lah.. 迷离夜.. Phobia of Butterfly... But anyway, they seemed harmless.. No harm no harm no harm... (Lame...)
Went to watch Song of the Sea also.. Not bad.. Music+ lighting+laser+water+fireworks.. Hmm.. worth the money for the experience...
