Workplace interpersonal skill at MIS

Attended the "workplace interpersonal skill" workshop at MIS. Special thanks for the trainer Celiecia, for being so motivating and encouraging. She helped me to open up and unleashed my true nature.

Sucess in a way I built rapports with everyone including the trainer. I felt appreciated. Some of the remarks were as followed.

"-its fun to have u in the class
-i liked ur working attitude
-u have to work on ur spelling"

"hi gary, i liked the way u present your problems at ur workplace. U are so direct and honest. U have the potential to do a higher level of job. Keep it up"

"like: you are a joker
Dislike: be confidence"

"be focus
Good out going nature"

"evina and gary are outspoken persons. They are sharing their views in the class which is very useful"

" -A fun person to work with
- be sensitive to others"

" i liked the way he made the whole class laugh with his humor"

These are small annoymous notes circulating at the end of lesson for reflection and they made the whole course worthwhile.

The night didn't end here. Being so motivated, I went to Toast Master queenstown division the second time. Back to back, enroll a member and took up Table topic for the night. Straight away present can.

So the impromptu topic was; What is the different between a wild beast and an evil friend. Wild beast endangered your life while evil friends endangered your soul.

Surprisingly, my "ah" counter was no bad at all. Perfect score for "ah/eh". Couple of "em", "so" and repetitive words. Overall, grading 6/10. I did okie but not great.

A small reunion talk as I bumped into Maggie for spear Coy. Maggie is a guy so Liping do not worry :)

总要在雨天

I always have a thing for oldies. Some songs will just trigger my sense of nostalgia, just like a time machine sending me back to the past. While listening to my favorite oldies, time stops and I will have the moment to smell the flowers or appreciate small little things around me.

Song 总要在雨天 brings me back to age 5. To marina square bowling ally with mum, dad, 4th uncle and aunty. I still remember the arcade game vougely. The sandwhich and coffee, like I still able to taste them right now. Although I do not deny all sandwhiches and coffee tastes similar.

For those that this song plays significant. Lay back and enjoy.

Saturday late night - X-men

Saturday night was great. For so long we didn't have the chance to walk each other side by side and talks on topic that randomly comes to mind. Its an romantic Saturday night.



Met at 10pm at summer set 313, walking just aimlessly to and fro. Could have met qinghe they all, but in the end still decided to spend with each other. Walk 20 minutes to Cathay to look for 24hours starhuck and endes up watching X-men. Show ended at 3am and we had green tea latte while playing bug village on ipad.

Cab home and spent somemore quanity time together and installing other games on ipad and iphone. Haha. I enjoyed this Saturday night.

Collaboration of the past May '11

You know what? I going to call it the "collaboration" from now on. Its getting harder to keep me with my blog, so I am going to blog using the "lump sum" basis. It will be labelled as "collaboration". Now, I will keep it real short and sweet;

Didi, Ethan's GF came to town



Ethan's GF all the way flew from Korean to Singapore, and they are now travelling to and fro each other country on a 3 month basis. This time around Didi is sticking around for 1 and a half month here. We are please to show her around Singapore.

First trip, we travel her to JB, Liping having breakfast at Woodland center and latter they took picture at the custom check point.
Taken in City square's starbucks where we had our donuts as tea break.

Second trip went up to MBS for shopping. It will be the very first experience for all of us. And basically, its like shopping at Paragon. We can only do window shopping. I remember I had tea break at one of the cafe and it costs me 20buck for a cup of coffee and some cakes :(

Third trip, went to long beach at East coast, to fix my craving for crabs.
The crab is around 800g that costs us $46/kg. The claws are big. However, I recommend the coffeeshop near Ethan house. Their crab there is almost as big or not bigger than long beach :)

When to Tawandang, Didi is an extreme drinker. Being a Korean, its no big deal since their sake there is cheaper than water.

Smile the two love birds

Mobile Log March

It has been getting harder and harder to blog regularly, hasn't it. Since work, I have no luxury of time to be by my own, pondering over stuffs. Although not back to back busy, but just something there to distract me enough to neglect my blog. I do not want to end this legacy that I have been holding on for so long.

So I might have to "tweak" around for another solution. Blogging within 160 letters, like how twitter works. But using my Samsung Wave S8500. A wonderful application called Dairy.

See, that's easy. It could be a weekly update so I will not forget great event that happened :)

A day with egg tarts and Sashimi

One fine day with the urge to eat egg tart, so jio CLP to run "around" Singapore to grab some nice bite. Head down to Chinatown to eat "Dong Heng" Egg tart. Got lost a little and finally found it opposite the Hindu Temple the Mei Si Jie.



So after getting my fix. I crave for a up of coffee, without much of a choice in Singapore, reluctantly went to Chinatown Point to get coffee bean tea latte. Suck cock. Totally taste like puke from yesterday night. Starbuck jitao dominate the green tea latte. 


 Went into people's park to see some kitchen product demo, a juice and blender mixer. Well turn back once we realize the price to be $69.90. After that hunt around and then got hungry again. CLP suggest to get some Sashimi. So with my Iphone hunt down the popular jap restaurant Ikoi. Daily Sashimi buffet at $45 nett. Inclusive of payable tax and compulsory tip. 7% + 10%. GE2011 coming and I am going to vote for SDP if any as their shadow budget promise to reduce tax to 0% for daily basis item :)


At Miramar Hotel, bus 64 direction back to home

Free flow of Sashimi and we had something like 4 sets
