Yo gals... Sorry for taking so long to post up the pictures.

Anyway, i have already posted some of the pictures in my blog. So a bit funny if i double post everything here again. I will just post some 'sneak previews' here ok? Ha... Will provide the full link to all the photos at the end of this post :)

A collage of all the pictures we took that day.

Too many photos to post up here. I have uploaded all the pictures to kodak gallery. But i think now they require you to sign in if you wanna save the picture (click the yellow 'save these photos' button at the top of the slides to sign in). Hopefully you still remember your ID(email address, not sure which one you are using)) and password. Otherwise you will have to subscribe to it. Worse comes to worse, if you find it troublesome, i will upload it to facebook. So those of you who don't have facebook, again, still have to subscribe for it. So don't be lazy, subscribe! (Shit! Why do i suddenly sound like a promoter for these 2 services?)

Oh, here's the link:

Enjoy! :)

My 'Interesting' Colleague and The Theme For My Birthday Celebration

Hey Nutos and Pau Sans,

I realised that I havn't been logging in for a while, ok 'many whiles', such that i can't even remember what's my password. Oh no! Is this the sign of pacing into old age?

Just to update you all. i'm well settled down in my job, very free also, such that I can finish reading the straits times everyday and still have time for business times. And shall I introduce an interesting character in my workplace. The qbqw face, it's not a code,
qbqw = qiao bu qi wo.

Anticipated to see his face?

I don't have his photo lar, below is the nearest one I can find to rep him


Anyway, I prided myself as one who doesn't judge a book by its cover, is impartial and of high justice and definitely not a gossiper. wow... why am I so perfect? wahaha *dance around like an angel*

So, the point I wanna make is that I don't stereotype him as 'qbqw type of people' just bcos he got a qbqw face. I came to the conclusion that he belongs to the 'qbqw type of people' bcos he always shows the qbqw attitude. Sounds like reciting a poem hor.

Therefore, to show that I don't judge a book by its cover, am impartial and of high justice, not a gossiper and is apparently the only perfect mankind surviving on earth, allow me to relate those qbqw incidents.

*Btw, I forgot to say that my only flaw is that I'm very bhb, bhb=buey hiao bai. But, bhb is better than those qbqw ple ok!

Incident 1
1 day in the office
My Boss: You changed seat huh, this seat has got a nice view.
Me, the only perfect mankind surviving on earth: Yah. *smiles and tries to maintain a shu nu image in front of my boss*
QBQW Face, whose cubicle is beside me: Actually, I wanted that seat, but she says she wants to shift in. *and at the same time, shows me his signature qbqw face*
My Boss: haha. * gives me the 'So, you are not shu nu, only act shu nu' look and walks off.
U good, spoil my shu nu image. And this scenario repeated at least 3x when other colleagues realised I changed seat.

Incident 2
Me, the only perfect mankind surviving on earth walks back to my seat from lunch.
qbqw face: So, did you have lunch at the cafeteria again?
Me, the only perfect mankind surviving on earth: Yah, the food is very nice leh. Today got seafood soup and yam rice, it's my favourite and cheap also, can save money.
qbqw face: ..........* gives me the 'you are very cheapo cum his signature qbqw grin'*

Still got alot, but I can't remember cos I'm very forgiving and also don't judge a book by its cover, am impartial and blah blah blah. It doesn't help that I'm 'very free' and he's apparently very busy and very capable.

Oops, why am I diverting. This post is suppose to inform all nutos and pau sans about my birthday celebration theme. Oh no! i'm really getting old....mentally....but i'm still a shu nu ok!

Donut's Birthday Celebration Theme

Because I'm very free, I got time to think of the theme. Anyway, the theme is to imitate one member of our gang for a day. You must not only dress like the person that you are assigned, but you must also imitate the way they talk, their usual habits and all.

Below is the assignment.

1) Lian Rong Pau to imitate Donut
2) Donut to imitate Peanut
3) Peanut to imitate Coconut
4) Coconut to imitate Groundnut
5) Groundnut to imitate Da Pau
And lastly, Da Pau to imitate Lian rong Pau.

This will also be a test of how much you really know each member of our gang. You have a week to think of how you wanna portray the character. The time starts now :)

For those who are assigned to members with less distinctive traits, like Liang Rong Pau who has the difficult task of imitating me. Not to worry, we will give 'tong qing fen' so long as you show that you really tried your best. However, this also means that for people who got characters with very distinctive traits, like Da Pau who got the privilege of portraying Lian Rong Pao. Please make sure that you get your barangs barangs ready. Can borrow wig or get falsies and dress sexy sexy, ok? Or you can convince us why you are not dressing like we expect you to,haha. the point is that you have tried your best ok.

Lastly, the assignment of the characters is jointly brought to you by Peanut and me by random distribution. You may wish to swap the characters with one another, but cannot swap to your own character and tell me you wanna imitate yourself lar.

Also, winner will get a pressie from me, loser has to do a forfeit for me,hehe. we will vote to get the results at the end of the day.

So I cya all next weekend, eaither sat or sun. which day ure want? Let me know.

Countdown for our Christmas party 2007!!!!!!!!!

Some stuffs to confirm.

Pls vote your preference. If you wish to have a theme, choose from peanut's list from previous entry. Or think of sthing fun. Alt, we can opt for free& easy, it will be easier for lazy nuts like us.


3) To order or not to order a log cake



Shall we order a log cake, or buy on the spot like every other year? Or do you all want a log cake at all? haha. We can eat ice-cream instead or even donuts,ha.

Heart warming story ^^,

One day, when I was a freshman in high school,
I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school.
His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books..
I thought to myself, "Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday?
He must really be a nerd."
I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on.
As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running toward him.
They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt.
His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him
He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes
My heart went out to him. So, I jogged over to him as he crawled around looking for his glasses, and I saw a tear in his eye.
As I handed him his glasses, I said, "Those guys are jerks. "
They really should get lives.
" He looked at me and said, "Hey thanks!"
There was a big smile on his face.
It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude.
I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived.
As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never seen him before.
He said he ha d gone to private school before now.
I would have never hung out with a private school kid before.
We talked all the way home, and I carried some of his books.
He turned out to be a pretty cool kid.
I asked him if he wanted to play a little football with my friends
He said yes.
We hung out all weekend and the more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him, and my friends thought the same of him.
Monday morning came, and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books again.
I stopped him and said, "Boy, you are gonna really build some serious muscles with this pile of books everyday!
" He just laughed and handed me half the books.
Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends.
When we were seniors we began to think about college.
Kyle decided on Georgetown and I was going to Duke.
I knew that we would always be friends, that the miles would never be a problem.
He was going to be a doctor and I was going for business on a football scholarship.
Kyle was valedictorian of our class.
I teased him all the time about being a nerd.
He had to prepare a speech for graduation.
I was so glad it wasn't me having to get up there and speak
Graduation day, I saw Kyle.
He looked great.
He was one of those guys that really found himself during high school.
He filled out and actually looked good in glasses.
He had more dates than I had and all the girls loved him.
Boy, sometimes I was jealous!
Today was one of those days.
I could see that he was nervous about his speech.
So, I smacked him on the back and said, "Hey, big guy, you'll be great!"
He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled.
" Thanks," he said.
As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began
"Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years.
Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach...but mostly your friends...
I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them.
I am going to tell you a story."
I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met.
He had planned to kill himself over the weekend.
He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn't have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home.
He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile.
"Thankfully, I was saved.
My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable."
I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment.
I saw his Mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile.
Not until that moment did I realize it's depth.
Never underestimate the power of your actions.
With one small gesture you can change a person's life.
For better or for worse.
God puts us all in each others lives to impact one another in some way.
Look for God in others.


~"Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly."
There is no beginning or end.. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift.~

CocoNut Is leaving Her "ComfORT" Zone..

Yo gals....

I am not sure if you gals know I have tender my resignation Last Mth...
tHIS nEWS mIGHT cOME hAS A Surprise or.. one that U might Have Foresee... (Yaya... I admit I have been Wanting to Leave from Like Day 1)

This Friday would be My Last Day at the place whicH I Have Stayed On for AlmoSt FouR YEars.. I actually feel sad that I am leaving this plc that I am so used to... Imagine I went through the temping, contract and perm "roles" throughout the years.. BUT guess.. it's really time for me to move on at one stage, to have a change of environment, to find my "passion" in work.. (not that i enjoy working.. I would of course prefer to sit at home be tai tai if not for the M factor)


However when i decided to tender my resignation, I actually felt more nervous than when I went for interviews.. As you all know.. I would always worry bout this & that, the fear of my bosses & peers' reactions keep flashing through my mind on the day before I tender..

Finally when I tender, the reactions that I received are sort OF a Mixture.. Some tink that it is silly of me to Leave (Reasons: Co doing well, U still studying, hav to start all over again) All these makes me ponder through whether I am too impulsive... U must be tinking: "aiyo.. coconut, why so indecisive??"
At that moment when the opportunity comes about, I really did not spend much time making up my decision.. Why isit that after the decision was made, the comments from others can affect me???????? Guess I am just not strong willed enough...

**convicing myself.. Once the decision is made, I should not regret. If u never put that 1st step out, you would never know what is in the outside world~!

Okay.. enough bout my resignation feelings... Toking how I spend my last 3 weeks in the co, mainly the 1 & 1/2 week I am busy with closing, then There are some Handovers that I need to brief through 'bout... On non-office hours, I am either at class or shopping for some farewell gifts for my colleagues.. My colleague are teasing me why isit that I seem to be more troubled over wat to buy than bout my handover or new work.. hahah. TT's me AGAIn.. Dunno how to prioritise...

I shall update u gals again once I have settled down in my new co!!

Ciao!!
