Year of the Snake

Didn’t take any leave for CNY this year cos there’s no one to cover for me for my main bank account. The thing about this bank is that some of the deals can be closed within 1-2 hours. So it’s quite important that there’s always someone on standby to quickly ring underwriters for terms & […]

Screensaver

My office “forces” us to use the same screensaver for branding consistency.  But the screensaver is this huge white background (covering almost the entire screen) and our company logo in the middle.  I really don’t think a huge patch of white is energy nor screen saving!

Merry 5th Day of Christmas

Was so busy throughout Nov and Dec that Christmas came and passed in a flash. For whatever reasons, i didn’t get to sing nor listen to many Christmas carols this year, which is quite a shame. Went to watch CZ12 on Christmas eve. Excellent movie. Classic Jacky Chan at his best! It was non-stop action […]

Nothing to be Proud about

We were talking in office today about where to go for karaoke with a client next week when Mr Noseshit said, “It’s been so long since I’ve gone to a normal karaoke that I don’t know of any”. I was quite put off. While I don’t condemn guys who visit unsavoury establishments, I don’t endorse […]

Nothing is Pitch Perfect

It’s always difficult to project your voice when singing in a key that hovers around the switch between one’s high and low voice. I’ve never requested for key changes and no one offered either but I thought it’s fine and I should try my best to make do. During practice today, I was pleasantly surprised […]

Taken 2

Saw the movie Taken 2 today. Not bad. But the bad guys guys had 2 family members left… So I guess we’re well set up for Taken 3 & 4. Haha.

BD

I personally think that it’s not easy to do business development. You need to have an extroverted personality and a certain level of charisma. Being well groomed and having the ability to build rapport quickly with strangers are a must. It thus surprises me that someone who’s a little queer, dresses untidily and has poor […]

Kopi

So while queuing at Golden Shoe to buy my ice blended kopi, there was this male customer in front of me who asked the old auntie at the stall, “What type of your coffee beans do you use?  Is it Arabica?” The poor old lady looked totally stunned.  “Simi Arabica?”, she must be thinking.  Despite […]

Facebook Like

I posted on Facebook the other day that the iron was left switched on at maximum for 3 day and it was a huge waste of electricity. A friend commented lucky didn’t catch fire, which i totally agree. There were also jokes made about how this is not the way to become Ironman, which i […]

National Day 2012

I almost always write about the National Day song for the year.  Not today though.  I must say I don’t really like this year’s song at all – find the melody boring & the lyrics.. gosh.  It would’ve been better as an instrumental. Having said that, I truly enjoyed the parade on TV today.  Was […]
