2nd career

Time flies. I am almost six months into my 2^nd career. Although work life has been tough, it’s still manageable and so far so good. Nevertheless, time on the green has been reduced tremendously. Hope it gets better with another partner joining me now.

TRACOM Annual Dinner

Attended TRACOM annual diner last night at Suntec. It was a fun filled night with ‘Back to school;’ theme and people were having great time with some of them coming in school attire. Time well spent meeting and catching up with old friends.

Dinner at Yeo's

We had dinner at Yeo’s Sea Food a while ago. Thanks to Tini – she’s the boss today. hehehe

Sofia

It is rather quiet today at home. There is no “Cicak Cicak di Dinding” cos baby Sofia is away in the Philippines visiting her Lola.

Only 5 months old and yet every corner at home has her ‘foot print’ – pram in the TV room, stool in the dining room, milk bottles in the kitchen, shower basin in the toilet, cradle in the bed room etc, etc. She will be missed by all for the next two weeks.

Super luxury week end

My new work life is not as easy as before and 12 hours spent at work place is a norm. Thought it will not last more than a month ,,,,,,it has been 4 months now and going strong. Week end break is a luxury, usually spent at home and golf is a super luxury. This quarter, 3 tournaments had to be given a miss due to work commitment. Sigh.......

Anyway, last week was a super luxury weekend with golf at Pulai.Spring with the usual kakis.

Christmas in KL

Last weekend we had a short trip to KL. Being a long weekend, traffic congestion at the CIQ and NS highway was expected. Thus we took a coach instead of the usual self drive.

True enough, it took us 9 hours instead of 6 to reach KL. Nevertheless, it was a nice experienced being chauffeured and all of us enjoyed the traveling.

It was Christmas eve that weekend and one can feel the festive mood. People were having good time on the street, malls, cafe etc. For us, it was just food and shopping. It was one of my best KL trip…..in a VIP coach.

clip of of my weekend trip to johor with friends from Japan

This clip was taken sometime in April 2010 during my weekend trip to Desa Rhu Fruit Farm.
The trip was meant for a friend and her hubby who was stationed in Singapore with the Japanese Embassy. Before leaving Singapore for good, we took them out for this trip. I didn't get to give them a copy of this clip. Thus I hope they could watch it here albeit far from clear.

Ibu Dalam Kenangan

Hari ini, umat islam menyambut Aidil Adha

Hari yang di raikan

Dengan penuh kesyaduan

Menghayati erti pengurbanan

Ibrahim dan Ismail anak kesayangan

Hari ini penuh kesyaduan

Teringat aku atas pemergian

Ibu kesayangan

Enam tahun berlalu

Ibu tetap dalam kenangan

Doa diiringkan

Atas segala pengurbanan

Semuga roh mu di tempatkan

Bersama orang2 yang beriman

Flea Market

Helping Yanti to set up her stall at a flea market at Scape last week. She is the only one in the family who is intrested in this line and often set up stall. Understand that she now has an online shop.


I remembered selling kueh when I was young (read very young). Every morning before going to school I would sell curry puff at the Mt Emily swimming pool. Those were the days when 5 cents can get you a piece of curry puff as big as today's Old Chang Kee.

Wait a minute........where's my mum's curry puff. Old Chang Kee was non existence when we first sell our curry puff more then 45 years ago and yet that old man today managed to set up stalls at every corner of the island selling his puff. What has gone wrong.

Mum has the skill to make curry puff and I guess thats all she has. But Old Chang Kee has more than that. He has bussiness acumen, foresight, capital, marketing skill, strategies and most of all GUTS. That make the difference.
