Winter Fashion


do people actually make such clothes and actually sell them for a profit?
or the image consultant just took a scissors ...... would a regular guy wear this?...

Xmas eve present


zooming past 2005 and now we are finally at xmas! so fast! wonder how did time fly this year...?? this yr prob is the shortest year that i have experienced so far.....perhaps its mainly a working year....just work work work.....not such a personally fulfilling year like 2004.
was glad that big boss announced that half day will be given on fri....dunno why so hard to say out , must wait until 1pm to announce....anyway its a real thrill to hear that....immediately packed bags and zoom off! alamak...absolutely no mood to work since beg of the week. had a nice dinner at ritz carlton....first time dining there...no wonder there is so much hype about the place....the service is indeed excellent. the buffet dinner was also of excellent value. from sashimi to south indian to fat sea cucumbers/mushrooms to fluffy -on- the -spot souffles ...hmm...great

must aim to stay there one night! more service staff shld really learn from pple like them. simple eg....i asked where is ladies...instead of just pointing to toilet, the staff lead me all the way there! aiyo....its not really far but made the experience there memorable.

exchanged gifts with zhen qing gang.....and played simple baby photo game. i could guess all correct! i think i could be quite gifted in tracing pple's traits and looks....hehe heh....the babies were unrecognisable but one look at background of parents, cousins etc...can guess who. i gave a dead giveaway photo of mine with cheesy grin and my SPG-tan looking round face around age 6....some could still guess it was another person! weird...

one fren said she got 15mth AWS! everyone went green with envy...but hey...dun believe there is such free lunch in the world.

today .... walked around and saw big sign at Times , 20% off! happy...went in to browse and found...omg! on the cover of Newsweek!!!! - aniki !!!! wow...looks damm nice....a mature looking pic but definitely collectable and worth just glancing at for a smile...haha...grabbed it immediately....$7.50...ok no prob 20%.....walked around a little and saw fine print on discount poster....discount ONLY for members.
siow! i wonder how many members they had...cuz nobody rushing to pay.....sigh...i know how much mark up these book sellers get....dumb lah...i bet they could have made more sales if 20% is open to all! ponder for a while....now i have to pay $7.5 for a piece of paper which is aniki's face with the title Newsweek on top.....heck...pay lah. xmas eve.

the cashier was a malay lady with tudung....the moment i handed her the mag...i was shocked...she just exclaimed ..." omg!! (and started shaking her head and breathing heavily...haha) its aniki jin!...aiyooo...so handsome...etc....hey u got see his latest movie or not?".....
"yeah i saw", feeling happy that she felt the same way...."how ah"....
i said its ok, romantic story etc...worth just watching him .....the she went further "hey u remember his old movies? ...last time one?"
"yes, those 10 yrs ago one huh? army one lah...."

" ah...yah....remember nicky wu etc etc..."

haha this lady knows her chinese idol stuff! cute. need more pple like this around.
and she is malay. friendly....felt happy paying for the mag.

Love the quote from a reporter fr 8 Days: "The former Prada poster boy is tall, lanky (skinny, almost), and has a face put together by anime artistes and God on a VERY generous day."

agree totally.

she was also really funny to say that she was nervous before the interview cuz she really want him to like her. it was an unprofessional thing to say but she just couldnt help it. as long he doesnt hate her, thats good enough for her. haha
