My Kitchen Sink

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 22:35:00 +0000

I am wondering the reason why I don't like my kitchen. I stay next door to my in law family. Since mother in law cook every day and her kitchen appliance and tools are full accessories, it's so convenience. So I take the opportunity to use their kitchen. :P

Today I only realize that the one of the reasons I don't like to use my own kitchen. I got a bad design sink. I thought all the sinks are the same until I discovered American Standard sink. Actually my requirement is very simple. As long as it can fit all my dishes after my meals, and the more importance is, when the time I wash, my cloth will not be wet. My sink is not deep enough.

Maybe my skill is really bad that I can not handle properly how to avoid of wet my own cloth when I wash but if I have choice, I will prefer to buy one that is deep and big enough so this problem will never happened.

Forget Again!

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 06:29:00 +0000

I have 2 colleagues don't like to go out for lunch. They enjoy having lunch at office pantry. They will usually ask whoever goes out buy lunch for them. Since I often go out, they used to place their order to me before they go out.

So almost every day, I will need to let them know where I will go for lunch and tell them what is selling in the shop or restaurant.

It did happen that I forget the order. I chatted with colleagues during lunch time and only realize I forget something when I reach office. That's the time the most embarrassed moment. Other than sorry, what can I say?

Today I did the same mistake again. *Sigh* Am I old enough? How come my memory becomes so bad?

Out of Job Scope

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 22:42:00 +0000

My HR colleague is busy looking for long distance movers. She is complaining that why she wants to do the job out of her job scope.

Lady boss's sister will moved back to home from overseas next month. That is her beloved sister and lady boss is helping her for the move. My colleague is by ordered to search one good shipper to ensure the smooth shipment process.

But this is the time she busying preparing monthly payroll. Whereas this one is the ad-hoc assignment and it's no related to job at all. Well, that is the boss's order even though that is out of your job scope. Do you dare to reject or ignore the order?

She cough Again

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 22:03:00 +0000

My elder princesses cough again. She has been recovered since three months ago but now it's back again. I admitted I am not a good mother to know how to take good care of my princesses. Previously I will restricted them not to eat this and not to drink take that because of their weak body. But after recovery, I do permit my princesses enjoy whatever they likes. The life style recently is totally changed compared to before.

I am asking myself, this is the main reason she back to bad cough again? I really angry myself can not protect them to maintain good health.

I got a Rose

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 05:14:00 +0000

Last week Friday is one of my female colleague's birthday and her hubby send her a bunch of roses. She is so kind that she didn't bring the flowers home but she gave each of the female colleague one rose. She is such a lovely birthday star.

It's no doubt that flowers are all the women beloved. This topic having all of the male and female colleagues agreed. But the fact is, even though we love flowers, we will only buy it as a present to someone special but not for ourselves. For me, I like to buy flowers but it's for praying propose. :P

I am surprised that some of the male colleagues love gardening at home. This is pretty much sweet. For me, a guy likes and good in gardening is a good guy. Why? Because my father loves gardening and he is the best guy in this world! :)

Comparison

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 08:27:00 +0000

From the first day I know her date of birth, I am comparing myself with her.

Both of us had born in the same month. Her birthday is earlier than me about 2 weeks and we are same age.

She is still single and working in high position in my company. I will always wondering if I am her, if I am at her position, how I will be.

I am not jealous or envy of her career or her pay or her position or her knowledge or her skill. I am just query what I will do if I am her at her level.

Honestly, I feel luckily for whatever I had and I am enjoying now. I even feel that I am lucky at my current position as I have not much pressure compare to her. :P

Less pay means less responsibility and it means less pressure. I feel thanks God for what I am now! :)

Boyish Princesses

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 16:08:00 +0000

I though my two little princesses are girlish. I am wrong since the day baseball equipment ordered online reach my home. I had already warm hubby not to buy as I don't agree that this game is suitable for girls. But hubby just ignored me.

He claims that he wishes to create opportunity to our two little princesses to involve in all type of sport game. Education is from the young age. No matter the activities are suitable for boys or girls, he just wishes to let our two little princesses learn on each and every game that he knows and the most importance thing is he is willing to spend times teach and play with them.

Shall I say his idea is no good? Can not. I already foreseen the worst will happen when our two little princesses playing the game and I am totally right.....

Baseball is absolutely fun when playing on the field. And we are happy to bring them out and playing the game with them outdoor under the sun. Our two little princesses enjoy the game very much. They playing the game just like a boy, rough at all the time.

But can you imaging kids playing the game indoor? This is my main problem now! *Sigh*

Not the Same

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 08:27:00 +0000

Hubby is outstation and only be back this Sunday. I have no choice to take care of my two little princesses at my own. He is always out of home actually. He is so sporting and always out for entertainment and spend almost all of his time for his beloved hobby. I am already get use that he is always not at home. Even though he is at home, he will sleep later than us.

It will be not much different he is outstation or not. The main different is he is overnight at elsewhere.

But still, I am feeling not the same. I miss him so much. :P

Regret

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 23:39:00 +0000

Am I right to advised my boss gets helps from Debt Collection agency? This is the first question I asked myself when my part time boss told me that he wished to terminate the contract of service with me.

When the company facing serious financial problem, I resigned and become a part time worker to the company. I not only reduce the staff cost of the company but still contribute all the best to the company even thought my working hours is limited to few hours a week.

After several discussions with boss and finally he take my advised to get help from collection company. It's no doubt that the collection agency helped a lot. In less than one year, the company business is burst up and financial position is getting better and better now.

Maybe because of this, he felt that my contribution to the company is no longer importance anymore. He can just spend little to hire an account clerk for the accounting job. And he manages the debts collection or easily get helps from the agency. Then I am an extra to him now.

Am I right to advised my boss gets helps from debt collection agency? It's all for the best of the company but not for me. *Sigh*

Tie Financial Situation

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 23:21:00 +0000

I am planning to fully settle my car loan. This is what I wish at the beginning of the year. The faster I settled the balance I can enjoy a less tension life.

It’s really hard now especially comes to year end. All my yearly expenses are due at the same time. Because of the termination of part time job, it’s spoil my plan.

Now I have no choice but force to delay my early settlement plan. Besides, I need to find sources to settle all the bills which due at the year end.

I just can not imaging if I am not entitled to receive company bonus this year end for whatever unforeseen reason, what will be the worst happen to me. *worrying*

Delay Again?

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:02:00 +0000

Another few more day will be November but hubby still not free to make an appointment for his annual medical check up. I had already advised him not to wait until end of the year to do the check up at the middle year but still, he make the same mistake.

At the beginning he told me that he will go for check up by middle of the year. Then he keep on delaying the plan and giving me excuse that he need to be good behavior on diet and exercise as he don’t want to see his check up results same as last year report.

But it seems like he is leak of time now. He told me that his boss going start a new project in November and he will be superb busy soon. I am wondering whether to ask him go for medical travel trip before the project started.

I wish I can enjoy holiday with him and my two little princesses and he can do his medical check up on time. I just don’t want him to have more excuses to delay the check up more than a year.

Burden

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 09:52:00 +0000

Just saw the newspaper headline today. New ruling came out yesterday that all cars existed 15 years old need to past the inspection to enable road tax renewal.

This is a bad news to me. I am having a second hand car which more than 15 years old. I actually love the car as it is still consider good condition. So far nothing big happen but only minor failures are acceptable since the day I own the car. This car with me for more than 5 years if not mistaken.

Oh my! This means that I will need to spend extra for the cost of inspection before my car can get renewal of road tax. This will be another burden for next year’s budget. *Sigh*

Resigned

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 06:30:00 +0000

My ex-boss who transferred to another company under the same roof had tendered his resignation. His last day of service with the company will be middle of next month. He served the company for more than 4 years and he had handled all of the companies' accounts under the same roof. Do you know how many companies are there totally? The answer is: More than hundred.

The good news is he is going to start his own business. I really like this boss. He is the one interview and decided to recruit me. Besides, the period of worked with him under the same team is the best memory and I did learned a lot.

I am searching for discount cigars and will buy that as farewell gift to him. I really appreciate I can meet a nice and good boss as him. Good luck and all the best to his future!

Jobless for A Month

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 06:18:00 +0000

It’s already a month. I still not manage to find a part time Saturday job for replacement. I must admit that I am not so efficient to find job. I just told my friends my request and waiting for good news from them.

What am I waiting for? I already facing problem with the loss of one month part time income. I just can not imaging what will happen if this situation continued.

What is the channel I can offer myself other than social network? Shall I go for door to door application? I am really out of idea. *Sigh*

New Assignments

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 01:14:00 +0000

I just received the news from my superior that we are going to handle another 3 more sets of accounts. The big boss is established another three businesses which is totally no related and different from our current business model.

Well, as an employee, I have no chance to reject or complaint as this is what the boss assigned. I am actually felt happy which I have more chance to explore to different business accounting treatment.

From what I am understanding there will be two in trading and one in F&B. Business in trading is my strength which I have no pressure to take over provided the big boss willing to spend on the barcode scanners. For sure we will definitely facing problem with stock control without the help of barcode system. This is really not we preferred. :P

Department Trip

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 01:06:00 +0000

Boss is asking who is free on the 31st of December and he wishes to organize a department trip.

He is invited not only 7 of us in finance and credit control department but our family members as well. This will be a local trip to rest and relax in Fraser Hill.

Different people got different view on department trip. One of my colleagues don't want to follow because she claimed that she don't feel rest and relax with colleagues during holidays. She treated that as a motivation or brain storming trip which she feels tension to attend.

For me, I am realistic, if my boss willing to sponsor us for the whole cost of trip. I am in! :P

Accident

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 18:24:00 +0000

I am so shock when I reach home. My neighbor's front gate was damaged. I was told that the incident happened in the evening where my neighbor ready to go out in his car wrongly entered the reversed gear and accidentally knocked the front gate.

He is going to get quote for the damages repair cost and claim from home insurance. He is lucky as nothing really bad happened to him. I really can not imaging if this happened in elsewhere then the condition maybe even worst.

Hopeless

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 06:57:00 +0000

I checked my email twice a day which I not did before. This is all because the organizer will notified the winners via email.

I wait and wait from end of July'09 till now. I really put high hope to this project. Although I do know that my submission is not so competitive but I had tried all my best to convince the judges. The top prize is my dream in fact. :P

I read from the newspaper today and I saw the advertisement part. The result is out. The result is out finally after almost three months. The sadness part: I am not in the list.

*sob*

The best House Cleaning Helper

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 06:15:00 +0000

As a working mom, I always seek for easy and convenience way to complete my household tasks. As I always admitted I am a lazy woman. I like shortcut very much. :p

I just found that I can clean my house with an more efficient way. This is the best house cleaning helper that I latest discover. Do you heard about steam cleaner before? Not only dust but grease are gone and it also can kill germs and bacteria in one shot. It's Eco friendly some more! Ops, you are already using this product? Forgive me if I am too outdated. :P

I don't think I can get this at my place. But I will certainly need this to save my house cleaning process. I will check with my credit card company and ask for interest free installment for this wonderful product. Perhaps I managed to get it soon.

Finish Work on Time

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 11:31:00 +0000

Boss just sends us an email for the deadline of account submission. I know he just don't want us to keep postponed the deadline anymore since this is not the first time we done so.

My superior talked with him that our workload is so much and we really have insufficient time to complete as per requested. But our boss just asked us this question: If all of you rush it by doing overtime every day, will the account can be turn up on time?

Why every boss likes their staffs work overtime? This is not the good practice in fact.

Besides, if we always work overtime, then the boss will query why need so many overtime to complete tasks?

This is all the bossy style, is it?

Treat Silver Online

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 11:10:00 +0000

It's already a habit whenever I need to look for more information, I will search online. Whatever info I need, I can check online and there are so many links that I can click into one by one, read and review and comment myself.

We do know internet world will not always getting true or correct info but we need to analyzed and make decision ourselves which to follow, which to reject

As I mentioned before, I am interesting in silver investment and I am wondering now what is the different between the local investment and worldwide trading. I did search and gather some information and trading online worldwide is so convenient nowadays. I am considering shall I treat silver online. Do you have any comment or advice?

Go Out? No...

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 10:28:00 +0000

Hubby invited me to go out with him tomorrow. He will go shooting in a local shopping mall tomorrow. I can follow and shop till drop while he shoots. This supposes to be a good idea but I just rejected his offer.

Every time I go out from home, especially weekend, my two little princesses will cry non stop. They will only allow me go out if I go out with them. I have no intention to shop with my two little princesses because I will not get anything I want but only accompany them to play here and there. :P

This is not the first time I rejected him but still I am sure hubby will feel disappointed. Sorry, darling!

Happy Deepavali!

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 11:01:00 +0000

All my Indian colleagues are applying one week leave to celebrate Deepavali. Wow! I am happy as well. I am waiting the day when they come back to work and bring us the murukku. This is the best!

I think all Indian will do this at home before Deepavali. Normally they will gather all family members when making murukku and some biscuits. They are making big portion so to share with relatives and friends.

To all who celebrate Deepavali:-

Away from Mirror

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Wun) — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 10:39:00 +0000

I seldom facing mirror compare to before. Previously I can spend half and hour or even longer after wake up. I brush tooth, wash face, comb my hair, make up, chance clothes and will keep looking the best look of myself.

But nowadays I am not doing the same. Because of the changes of my body shape I go and exercise yoga to keep my body fit. I saw my wrinkle getting more so I go and sign up the deep wrinkle treatment course. But recently I found that my hair is lesser and lesser. How am I going to avoid the condition going worst? This is what I can not except as a woman.... *sob*
