Time really flies, it's the last day of the year!

The last two days of my 2009 were spent for stock takes. I have a very awesome experience this year. Yesterday, I went to a feed mill and flour mill factory. The feed and flour were placed in silos. We have to climb up the silos in order to measure the amount of the stock. The height of the silo is at 7-storey tall. Gosh! My legs seem not to be mine. I got height phobia!!

And, today, I went to a fishery cold room. The temperature of the cold room is at minus 20 degree Celsius. My nose and ears are freezing. It's worse than the winter that I had in Vancouver before. Even the pen that I was using, the ink totally cannot come out. I

Truthfully, this year really passed by very fast. Hopefully, next year would be a more fruitful year. And, may everyone has a blessed new year!!!

Goodbye, 2009!!!

This is Small-T. She is Emma's elder sister. But, I guess she has some abnormalities, as she can hardly grow bigger nowadays. My dear has abandoned her couple of months ago when he started to keep Emma as a pet. So, Small-T has been staying with me ever since then. I'm sure Small-T is happier staying with me as she has a cleaner house here. Though, it has shrink in size. Keke...

This is my second cross stitch project for my entire life. This is specially made for my god sister. Well, I took almost 3 months to complete it. I bought this in Sungai Wang while shopping with my god sister and started doing it end of September. I officially completed it just two hours ago. I feel so contented having completed this project. It's just too lovely. And, this piece of cloth is now on its way being framed by my neighbour. Hehe.

Connie, here's a glimpse of the project. The first picture was taken last night, using Lumix TZ7, while the second one was captured using Canon Ixus 50 just now. See the differences?

Just to refresh, this is my first project. I did it last year during my holiday.

Tala...Framed..

From tomorrow onwards, I will be off for four consecutive days. Yet, I do not feel happy or excited at all. Am I sad? No, I'm not. But, I'm not happy neither. My feelings are just indescribable. I'm down, but I can't figure out the reasons why. I do not have any mood to do anything at all. Feel wanted to sleep now, yet it's too early.

EMO`EMO`EMO`EMO`EMO

Last week, we brought Emma to the sea side again. She enjoyed herself very much this time. She is not afraid of the waves anymore.

By the time we reach home, she was so exhausted.

Ingredients:

Quantity at own preferences
Spaghetti
A clove of garlic
Onions
Ham and sausages
Mixed vegetables

1. Bring spaghetti to boil in a pot of water with a pinch of salt and some oil. When cooked, drain the spaghetti under running tap water and drain off any excess water. Leave aside.

2. Cut ham and sausages into cubes. You may replace ham with luncheon meat. Fry the ham and sausages in a frying pan until it turns golden brown. You may add in some butter and black pepper for frying to enhance the aroma of the ham and sausages. Set aside.

4. Chop a clove of garlic and onions finely. Fry the chopped garlic and onion until it turns golden, add in mixed vegetables. Add in chicken / and beef granules, a pinch of salt and LP sauce. Continue frying until the mixed vegetables is cooked. Then, add in the spaghetti. Fold in the garlic, onions and mixed vegetables in the spaghetti.

5. Dish out the spaghetti on a serving plate. Serve the ham and sausages on the spaghetti. Sprinkle some mixed herbs on top of the dish.

6. Tala! The garlic fried spaghetti is ready to be served.

Today, we had this as lunch. However, the spaghetti turned out to be a bit oily and not salty enough. Gotta work harder next time.

I got these lovely Precious Moments fridge magnets from my fellow colleagues this morning. Lay, Soon and SiewYee went to Singapore last week fro holiday. Too bad that I can't join them. Sob sob..

They are just too lovely. Thanks ya, Lay, Soon and SiewYee.. love you guys much... ^_^

Emma was so chubby and cute couple of months back. Miss her so much. Now, she is already a young adult, a very skinny and naughty GR.

Yesterday, we brought Emma to Teluk Kumbar for a swim. She was so afraid of the wave initially. Everytime, when there are waves sweeping through, she ran towards the shore. However, she managed to overcome it eventually. And, she really enjoyed swimming and playing with water! I just discovered that Emma has a new hobby - collecting leaves by the shore. She likes to collect leaves that were floating by the sea and bring them to the shore. She's indeed a new MPPP worker.

By the time we reached home, she got so exhausted.. So do I...

Upon gaining my three years of working experience after having passed my CFP examinations, finally I managed to apply for my CFP membership. I am now a CFP professional. I feel so happy. However, I have yet to actually put this into practice, except to the extent to myself, as I'm not working in a financial planning consulting firm. However, I'm glad that I'm exposed to some areas of financial planning, such as taxation planning coz' I'm working in an audit firm.

Well, every coin has two sides of it. I'm happy having obtained the CFP membership, yet I'm a bit sad too, as I have to fork out RM400 for membership fees annually, not to take into account those fees paid for CE courses. There gotta be a hole in my pocket soon. ^_^

Gosh, my two weeks leave is coming to the end soon. I still have one more day to enjoy it (tomorrow). Well, these two weeks are indeed very enjoyable and tiring for me.

Firstly, I hang out with Siew preparing for the Mooncake Festival. Just realised that I do not have any pictures on that. Then, I was busy preparing for my ROM.

Next, I went to KL to visit my god-family. We went to Genting. Guess what we did in Genting? Bowling!! and Singing!! Gosh... I also donated a few bucks to Uncle Lim Foundation. Sob Sob...

Senior Citizens at Chin Swee Temple

The ladies...

My god-family

Then, I went for a shopping spree in KL and I ended up being broke. I also met up with my little niece. She is five months old now. She is cute, isn't she?

We also went to Malacca for sightseeing. We went to Menara Taming Sari. I never been to the Tower before. Well, I managed to capture the view with Eyes on Malaysia as the background.




And, that's the end of my holiday and I'm on my way back to Penang by Aeroline.

With effect from 27th September 2009, I no longer have a boyfriend. Today, it is supposed to be my 7th Anniversary with my boyfriend, yet, it ended HE is no longer my boyfriend anymore. It marks the beginning of another chapter of life- HE becomes my husband. And, we shall be starting a new phase of life together from now onwards.

My NEW family from now onwards...

1. Get the marriage registration form from the National Registration Department (I/C Office)

2. Fill in the form, affix your photograph and handed back to the department for them to verify the details filled in.

3. Head to any Commissioner for Oaths and make the statutory declaration.
For Penangites, you can go to King Street. There are a couple of Commissioner for Oaths in that area. I find Ms Goh, from 22, King Street is a rather nice lady.

4. Then, submit the form, photocopies of the groom's and bride's Identity Card and Birth Certificate, the witnesses' Identity Card (one each for the groom and the bride) to the respective Registration office or Society.
For your information, if you are a Penangite and your residential address is located in Daerah Barat Daya, you can have your wedding solemnised in Than Siang Temple and the National Registration Department in Balik Pulau only. Whereas if any of the groom or bride is residing in Daerah Timur Laut, then you can have your wedding solemnised in National Registration Department in Georgetown, Penang Chinese Town Hall, Che Hoon Khor Moral Uplifting Society and etc.

5. Wait for your chosen date to arrive, and sign the "Contract of Life" in front of friends and relatives. And, there ends your "single" life....
