Millions long for immortality who don't know what to do on a rainy afternoon.

While at work,
my colleague showed me a book.
The magazine rather.
Which consist informations and photograph of Tycoons.
So I read through and found this!

ENJOY!

Today, a colleague of mine showed me a cigarette pack with some black spots on it.
Looks like dirt.
But when I took a closer look,
it's BEETLES!

Erm.. The Beatles?

YA! AND THEY ARE STILL CRAWLING!
Don't worry. That packet of cigarettes belongs to the company.
My colleague does not puff on those.

Smoking is bad for health.
Decreases sperm rate and affect fertility.
It also complicate pregnancy.
That's what printed on those cigarettes packs.
So. DO YOU STILL WANT ORGASM?
YES?
QUIT SMOKING.

My colleagues discourage me to smoke.
They knew I'm a non-smoker.

For e.g., Alvin would hold a cigarette in fingers and say "Now I am going to give you HEALTH WARNING 'SMOKING IS BAD FOR HEALTH. SMOKING CAUSES CANCER' Ok. Tell you Health Warning liao. Dont smoke." Then he continues smoking.

My Manager, Benny, he is very concerned about the smell of smoke.
He's a smoker too.
He did many no-smoking rules in the company because of me!

Another post about my work.
Hope this does not kill you.
There will be a CNY dinner and I'm invited!
The dress code is Formal / Masquerade.
Heard from a few colleagues there is a need for MASK.
Mask as in.. HALF COVERED kind.
Those stylo -milo kind.
Not Power Ranger Plastic Mask alright?

Neither are Powerpuff Masks acceptable.

I heard from a colleague of mine that in the previous years,
their dress code is RETRO!
There was another occasion where they had to wear at least 11 colours.
Serene said Kenny, (THE IT GUY) print out the printer's TEST PRINT.
(the one with a lot of colours)
and pasted it on his shirt.
More than 11 colours!

I guess this is getting bored.
I try not to mention too much about work.
You gues may not be interested in my colleagues and stuffs you see.
So, I'll cut down on that.

Ok now.
Tell me where the heaven do you find such a considerate blogger?

Actually you are viewing her blog now.

Yeah. A dress.

Yeah. Another dress.

Shortest skirts I ever own.

Much shorter than your long ruler.

How do i get this.

Get a pooh bear.
Punch the nose REAL DEEP into its head.
That's all actually.

Told ya. It's easy.

I have broken my record.

4 blog entries within 1 and a half hours.

You.

Break mine.

"OH MY GOD." will be repeated by you after viewing the following pictures.
(Well, that's what happened to me.)

When Khen Kiat sent me these photos, I was horrified.
At the same time, I felt 'HUH?' (Couldn't think of a suitable word for the time being. I hope this word helped as much)
Honestly, I dont remember taking these photos.
When the hell did I went out with vivienne and Yingwei to .. Where's that?
Esplanade wasn't even built!

Peiying Primary School
2001
Form Teacher, Ms Chew ---> Mrs Lau.

SPOT ME!
Honestly, I couldn't even recognise myself.
I had no choice but to ask this question,
"WHICH IS ME?!"
Goddammit.
Spot Khen Kiat.

I can still name everyone!
Erm. Except for the guy above Heather.
7 of them are from Orchid Park Secondary.
Including me.
3 of them are in 5b1'2006
Spot them all.

NANYANG POLYTECHNIC!

See my head? See my heaD?!

Lau Niang came back from CHINA!

and Dammit.
I sent her a card to China few weeks back.
She did not receive it.
Yesterday, I received the returned mail.
INSUFFICIENT ADDRESS!
Looks like I have to give it to her in person.

This is lame-oh-lame.

Guess where this 'Lame-oh-Lame" came from?
Alright.
A scene at home.
(something happened)
Bro: L.O.L
Mum: What is L.O.L? Lame oh lame ah?

L.O.L

Vivocity!!!
The Art Club and Miss Koh set up a booth over at Vivocity.
I went there because they were selling my batik badge. =)

Love is in the air!

Kiss your backside.
It's PARALLEX ERROR!!!!
Do not try this anywhere..
Jie jie and Shu shu Are professionals.

Wenxiong again.

Having him to take a photo with me seems to be his most unfortunate thing to do?

He still feels very unfortunate.

NOW WE KNOW WHY.

^_^

My Batik Badge!

Rong Pah's Batik badge! A picture of her! Please enjoy (lar).

YEAH!

Ending this post off with...

I have no idea what to post about.

i love my job?

Sunday, January 21, 2007

My colleague mentioned about the TORTURES DURING THE QING DYNASTY after we had our lunch and went for a short shopping.
I seem to get along very well with him and another lady.
I feel very comfortable with them =)
so ya.
The following paragraph may make you feel uncomfortable.
Alvin mentioned 3 ways of torture during the Qing Dynasty.
I shall mention one of the ways.
TORTURE NO.1
1)Strip.
2)Place a rat into a container (I think it sound like plastic containers to me. Wait. They have plastic containers during the Qing Dynasty already?! Goddamit.)
3)Place the container on the belly, with the opening against the belly.
4)Light up some fire on the other end of the container to heat up the container.
5)This will cause the rat to escape from the container by digging through walls
6)It is impossible to dig through containers.
7)So the rat dig the belly.
8)Dig dig dig.
9)Still dig and dig and..
10)It finally enters the body.

If it is not very clear, here's a picture of TORTURE NO.1

VIEWERS DISCREETION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Told ya. It is gross.

this post is posted to take up some space.

Bear with me

THINGS TO DO AT A BORING MOVIE.

1) throw a popcorn in the air and yell "It's snowing!"
2)Go, "ewww.." Whenever anyone kisses.
3)Clap when a good guy get killed.
4)make a noise like passing your gas and go, "ahh.."
5)Start wheezing and ask the person sitting beside you if you can have some Juicy Fruits for your asthma.
6)Laugh very loudly at corny jokes.
7)Tell the man beside you that you had diarrhoea and wink while smiling
8)Say that they cannot sit beside you because your invisible friend is sitting.
9)Yell out loud "Stop molesting me!"

Paiseh for being corny.

Because Hafiz's camera's battery is low, only two photos were taken during the

CCA Orientation.

There! Shaun and me!
He always gives those face.
Just cant stop whacking me.

Hafiz and me!
He got a fetish for bra straps?
Especially those lucky ones?

Photos and videos from him.
Credit goes to him alright?
(Must mention this or esle he'll be saying me kapo-ing his photos.)

Sec one CCA Orientation

ATTENTION:

THIS WILL BE A VERY BORING POST.

READ ONLY IF YOU ARE REALLY BORED.

10 January 2006.
CCA Orientation.
I WAS PRESENT!
I was somehow 'sian half' because I think my sister had taken her camera to work.
Thank god, (fortunately) Hafiz was born!
Unfortunately, his camera's battery is low.
Fortunately, he brought his charger!
Unfortunately, if he will to take video of the band display, no one will take the photos of the band!
Fortunately, his high mega pixel camera is present.
Unfortunately, his handphone has got not much memory space.
After all, the recording wasn't going smoothly.
It's like.. cut here cut there.
Oh well.

Met Jason and DAMN!
He’s almost my height!
The last time I saw him was like.. kid?
Sec Two and hitting 170.
That’s tall for our school’s boys.
Met Ge Liang and Joel and Ivan. WUSHU!
Ali-star too!
Michael aka Jack’s voice broke!
As usual, he still ignores me when I call him Jack and answers me when I can him Michael.
Hafiz still got that BARNACLE BOY nametag on his school uniform.

I helped them to put on their songkok, which stinks like frog.
I came early, hoping to help out by tying plaids.
But Miss Chang said no need. No time~

The performance by the band was great!
Percussion rocks!
Guess what? I could actually hear the clarinets!
(YIPPEEE!)
The gimmicks were cute.
I really wish to see the band display again. In person.
But it will never happen.
Aiyo.

After the performance, our kiasu conductor wanted them to have band practice.
They sight read the Symphony No.4 by Tchaikovsky.
WOW! CLASSICAL!
One of the hard pieces

While they were practicing, I was busy promoting the cca to the secondary ones.
----HOW DO I PERSUADE THEM----
Be friendly and act friendly or whatsoever.
I tell them “the band is like one big family..it’s very fun lor..”
“The band has gone to Malaysia, Genting, Hongkong. They will be going to Japan next year.” (then you can see the WAHH~ expression on their faces) After that, they will go to the booth. *GRINS*
Last but not least, remain calm, smile and say thank you when they bo chup you. After they walked off, them those face. Finger is fine too.

Our band’s way of persuading people.
1) Do not force them.
2) Do not pull or drag them physically to the booth.
3) Do not bad mouth other CCA. You don’t benefit much too.
4) Let the sec ones make their own decision after persuading.
5) Respect the sec ones, respect other cca.
6) Most importantly, respect me.

After distributing 3 or 4 stacks of the OP cards, we hung out at the study area outside the band room.
Me and angmor les around and we felt the power of love even when we were carrying the table.
WOOHOO!! THE POWER OF LOVE!
Oh ya. While I was distributing and persuading sec ones to enter the OPWO family, I met this boy by the name of Bryan.
He’s ultimately cute.
After awhile, I get to know that he got a brother, an ex student of OP.
I know his brother.
I think his brother has forgotten me.
Well.. I don’t give much of a damn.
This little boy likes to talk about his brother and his brother’s friend, a band alumni.
He tells me why his surname is Cai instead of Chua.
I manage to get his handphone number!
I lied to my bandmates that he’s my brother and most of them believed and were surprised.

At the study area, we crapped and stuffs.
I realized the boys in band love to wear hairband.
They throw mine around and put it on their heads and ask around if it’s nice.
We played lame games like CONCENTRATION.
Sebas started it.
It’s like everyone needs to have a nickname.
Sebas – Kukubird
Elizabeth – Bird
Narisa – Nar. But pronounce as NEH.
Nicole – Maria
Eliza – Hairy all over.

There’s a long story behind that nickname I named myself.
Because the nickname of mine is too long and hard to pronounce in the game, I decided come out with a short form, HAIRY.

That game was full of crap. Thanks to Sebastian and his ideas.

Because Bryan and I decided to go makan at northpoint and don’t want him to wait, we only played for a while.
Hus, Nar, Marcus, Yang, Bryan, Shuyi, and I went makan and met Chang, Yongtah, Jia Rong and I forgot whom.
Marcus said Bryan could take over Yongtah.
Even before Bryan joins the band, he’s already devoted and mixing with the bandmates instead of his sec one friends.

Videos and photos to be uploaded after I receive it from Hafiz!

It’s always enjoyable and fun and crazy and crapping to hang out with band friends. Love them all.

THE BAND BANNER.

Saturday, January 06, 2007

..ALUMNI BAND PRACTICE..

It has been 6 months since I played the clarinet.

My embrochure went out of shape.

My air was not sustaining.

We played

Jap Graffiti 6,

Eagle Bend &

Merry Widow!

2 years ago,

we participated in the Syf and was awarded Gold with Honours with the piece, Merry Widow. Temasek Sec too.

This year, another FOURTEEN schools chose Merry Widow as their choice piece.

(that's what yong tah meiz said.)

Hmm..

Wow.

Afterall, I did enjoyed myself during band practice.

These are the photos after band practice.

******************************************************

Presenting................

....................

.............................

.......................................

.....................

..........

....

KENG KENG!

I spotted him with a ZINC bag, and FILA shirt!

Then, presenting SHAUN!

He is still so afraid of Keng Leong.

You gotta see his reaction on his face whenever we mentioned about KL.

He's playing the bass guitar.

I think it's the bass guitar because it sound so bass.

Vibrations and stuffs.

Then sebastian will showcase his physics knowledge.

E.g. "That is SOUND WAVE. It is caused by rarefaction and.. what ah?"

"compression la" I replied.

Sebas and the drum set.

He is also known as tiko pek.

This picture is much clearer because it is taken by Hafiz's hp, which looked quite alike to my handphone. But with higher mega pixel. (DAMMIT)

Who says I can't play the BASS CLARINET!!??

The contra-alto clarinet is arriving!

The contra alto clarinet is pitched in E-flat and sounds one octave below the alto

(now we're talking bass).

It's constructed in both metal and wood.

There is a straight shape version and a loop version.

So it will look something like this.

Next year, 2008, our band will be heading to JAPAN!!!

So ya. After band practice, Ade, Yang, Christopher, Jun Hao, Keng Keng go makan at STEVEN.

Miss Chang, Mr Tan, Marcus, Yong Tah, Sebas at the other table beside us.

We talked about Jun hao's workplace, where he slept on the shelf at AIA,

clubbing @ MOS.

Last but not least,

something to make you WOW (or swear).

The band banner.

Not clear?

There you go.

*************currently unavailable. Blame Photobucket......................

Credits for the better quality photo, Hafiz.

^_^

I crossed the parade sq with esther and kesha and nar and did not notice the banner until I came out from the canteen, heading towards the hall.

(apologise for the number of AND in one sentence)

Updates

on my

1st three days

of work!!

Introduction

I am currently working at Regency House. (That is the name of the building)

The company is Imperial Tobacco.

As you can see, it is a company which has something to do with cigarettes.

It is located in Orchard.

Day ONE

I was introduced to the rest of the staff.
I have not much things to do. But a lot of things to learn.
Kris blanja me and Michael to a cafe on our 1st lunch.
Most of the staff ask me the almost-the-same question.

Qn1: How old are you? (I replied) Oh! So young!

Qn2: So you're waiting for your O level results?

Qn3: So which college would you want to go?

Qn4: Which course are you interested in?

Qn5: Where do you live?

So I had to repeat the answers quite a few times.

Day Two:

A new girl came in. She's a permanent staff I guess.
At least, I'm not the newest girl in the office. =) (HENG AH HENG AH HENG AH HENG AH HENG AH! ) I have no idea why I felt so relieved.

Overall

My colleagues are very friendly and cheerful
My desk is located at a corner of the manager's room.
Most of them are smokers. Except for a few ladies. A few ladies are smokers too.
It was unbearable when my manager smoke in the office.
However, today, day 3 of my work, he told me this. "Eliza ah.. I have a good news for you. For your sake, from monday onwards, this room will not a non-smoking room. We will smoke at other places. *smiles* "
I told you my colleagues/manager are good.
My boss is a ang mor. You gotta hear the way he pronounces my name. "Morning Eliza!" SO STYLO CAN?! (Just nod)
There a guy called Alvin. He looks similar to my cousin's just-married husband. Just that Alvin is taller.
He's a funny guy. Today, when michael helped me out with the jammed paper in the photocopy machine, Alvin gave me some snacks to eat and he said "Yao bu yao gou da bian?" (You want some dog shit?) Honestly, that brown snack really looked like dog shit. the colour, the shape, some crushed, which made it look so natural-dog-shit-shape. WHAT? YOU WANT ME TO DRAW IT OUT? Sure no problem. PM me in msn.
On the 1st and 2nd day, I went out for lunch with Kris and Michael. They were the ones whom I'm closer to.
*************************************************************

3rd day, today, casual friday, we were allowed to wear jeans! Just casual la! So happy can? I no need to wear those working shoes. I had a few pairs of working shoes and all of them hurts my sole. Sob.
Anyway, Lao Ban a.k.a Boss, suggest a team lunch. That's what he call it. It means everyone in our department (I'm part of the Duty-Free Department), gather together to have lunch. We had our lunch at a small restaurant in Chinatown. Of course, Lao Ban blanja. 10 person. Alvin told me this restaurant is famous for their Xiao Long Bao. Indeed, it was delicious. All the food was delicious. But the boss of the restaurant, two words to describe him. KIAM PAH! Lazy to explain the story why he is kiam pah. Explain to Kenny but he doesn't understand. So ya.
Oh ya! There's a guy named Kenny at my workplace too. He fixes the computer. I have not seen him before (yet).
Kenny, my friend, has a supervisor called Kenny too. (Afterall, the name ELIZA is still more unique)
Like I said, the food was sumptous. The chinese pizza too! YUMMY! DUMMY! HORNY!
I'm quite glad to be working in this company.
Very glad that the people there are so sociable. (My department one lar.. The other department. Forgotten their names.)
Nice boss, nice manager.
One more thing! There's a pantry for us to have a short break, get your own drinks!
Gtg! cya! sis is back!
