Well, I did have two reports to hand in before the week ends. However, I am not in the mood to do the reports right now. Actually I am still overwhelmed by the photos I received from Fotohub yesterday. I went to process my first roll of 120 films, finally. The shoots were taken using Qing Hua Diana F+ which I received from YongSheng for Christmas, a day before we went to Australia for our Christmas holiday. I was totally overjoyed in my heart but I just too ego to show it to him. =x
I bought the camera along with us to Australia and used a roll of film. The toy camera is not a cheap hobby. I believed YongSheng who got his sister to buy the camera on his behalf, got it at around $200. He refused to tell me the price. The price is not inclusive of the 120 films which is approximately $10 per roll. We bought an instant back last weekend while we do shopping in Tangs. It burnt us a hole in the pocket with the price tag of $181.
We bought the film to various photo service shops to enquire about processing. Guess what? We came across shops which either don’t do the processing or charge us $8 for processing alone and $2 per photo. We freaked out hearing the price. Yesterday after a search on google.com, I found a shop – Fotohub which was recommended on Lomotion forum. I gave them a call and they informed me that the processing alone is $5 and $0.50 per photo. I went there with YongSheng during lunch time, they charged me $3.50 for processing and $0.60 per photo instead. Comparing it with the shop we enquired at Northpoint, Fotohub is like a heaven to us. I am certain that they provide a good place to develop photos!

weeeuuueeeweet... Days pass by and it is the end of the month. December gonna be a hectic month for me. I will be heading off to Hong Kong for 7 days and will be sticking my ass in Melbourne for another 10 days. So, take care people.For the HongKong trip, I will be going with YongSheng, his parents, his second sister and his little niece. We will be dropping by Macau for 3days and half a day in Zhuhai. I have not step my foot in Macau and Zhuhai. Hope this upcoming trip will be memorable and I can shop in peace. As for holidays in Melbourne, Adnan and YongSheng will be going with me to down under to look for Peanut.She has not been exploring Melbourne ever since she lived there 5 years ago. Gosh. Hope we can bring her all around and next time she can be peacock, confidently tell others that she has been to those spots in Melbourne.

Yesterday is just another day after work. Luckily for me, YongSheng came all the way to fetch me from the site office. On the car ride back home, he said he had a confession to make. I was wondering what it was, then he said ‘I went to meet a woman just now.’ I was quite surprised, because he has never met his female friend without me. Then he continued ‘a older woman.’ Initially, I thought he referred to Meixin. He immediately mentioned ‘I meet your mum.’ I was more shocked to hear what they were doing before he came to fetch me. I have never come across such nice guy and from what he did, I am more contented and determined that my decision is all so right. YongSheng was so bored last afternoon that he decided to bring some food which his mum bought from Genting to my mum. He travelled all the way to my house before he realized my mum is not at home. Through the tele-conversation with my mum, YongSheng went to Ang Mo Kio to find my mum who went to consult doctor. YongSheng then fetch my mum home and even help me to fold my clothes in the wardrobe. I am totally astonished and at the same time feeling so touched by his action. How many boyfriends on this earth would actually do such initiation to fetch his girlfriend’s mum home? How many boyfriends in the Chinese culture would fold his girlfriend’s clothes without anyone ask him to do so?

It's been quite some time since I last blog on my personal blog. This is because I have been devoting my time to blog on the wedding blog. Before I am turning into a bridezilla, here I am, sharing my thoughts as a normal person. It has been 2 or 3 months since I last stepped into workforce. I have been asked by my mum 'when are you applying for jobs?', 'are you able to find a job?' Seriously it is not easy to find one decent job. I thought I can survive those odd hours job but hell no. I am not going to spend hours in the office. This is so not me. For those bosses, stop throwing works at your staffs. I had enough and threw back all work at my superior. It is easy for staff to just shake their arses and get away with it. Note to bosses: If you think you pay your staff pennies to do your work, then forget it. This is the new world. Anyway, I bet there are lotas more worse or worser MEs around. Our new generation of worker bees are not going to work the arse off for companies. Bosses should think of new way to attract employees and personally, I do not like to use the word - worker. I preferred terms like employee, resource partner, colleagues. This is more of the EQ thingy and it can helps employees to feel closer with superiors. So, bosses, what are the small, little things which help you to pull the gap between yourself and your employees?
