Something new again

Hi Everyone!

Not sure who is reading my blog as only 1-2 person know my blog. I haven't been updating I know. Sorry!

But.. I have so much to update...! From May 2010 to Mar 2011.. So many stuff has happened.. But I am not going to say everything yet.. :p

The first thing I want to say is that I am working as a project engineer in a government company. I love the job scope, the people and the travelling oppportunities.

I am sure you guys will ask me... What happened to the property stuff?

I realized that it wasn't the right place for me. It was dark, sinister and full of backstabbing.. Also not forgetting the lechers, perverts and weird guys who are out to pick up gals instead of buying properties. In just 4 months, I learned so much. I learned the cold, harsh, dark side of reality. And from there I decided, to go back to my comfort zone. From my comfort zone, with my constant salary, I will be able to do something for the society. If I am going to be jobless and running around without a potential buyer or seller, I am never going to hit towards my goal.. "Eileen And Laura Foundation".

Yes, my ultimate aim is to set up a foundation to help people realize their dreams or come back up from their setbacks. I hope I can achieve that. But I know in everything, it is in God's plan. So maybe he has something better? :)

Who knows?

But I know that I am at a happier place right now. Definitely.

Love you guys...

*Blessed*

Baking Chef in the Making!!!!

Today is my 2nd last baking class. I signed for 4 foundation lessons in cake-baking. Really love it. I had a good partner and i really enjoyed baking.

But today's lesson was extremely tiring. We baked 3 cakes (Pandan Kaya Layer Cake, Sweetcorn fudge cake and blackforest cake). I was in the classroom for 6.5 hrs. Was baking, cleaning, washing and decorating the cake. It really take my mind off things. Enjoy the pictures! After attending the class, i realized that anyone can bake! :) And baking has alot of scientific theories in it, like baker's ratio, chemical reaction... etc....

Baking class on a hot afternoon. Thankfully the class is airconditioned! :)

Naked Cake before we dress him up for the grand photoshoot... Hahaha...

Blackforest cake!! First masterpiece. Please note that it is done by me and my partner! Look like those ready available blackforest cake in those cake shops rite???

Yippee!! My Masterpiece for Sweetcorn Fudge Cake... Yummy!

My Rented Place

Pool for the beginner, for people who just want to sit, relax and stone... :)

25m Lap pool for anyone who wants to swim! Great feeling swimming here cos not many people are staying here , hence the pool is always empty... :)

I love the bathroom... Cos its adjoined bathroom... double doors :)

I love the window view from my room. Like a mini piece of heaven just for me to enioy. :)

New Phase

Today is my first day that i do not have to report at a work. Honestly speaking, i was happy to wake up at 9am without feeling guilty, BUT i was feeling lost and down. Maybe because i didn't have much buyers on hand.

After thinking about things, i decided to stop dwelling in this and do sumthing abt it. So i started calling and preparing stuff. Felt better.

Hope sumthing good turns out of this.

Blockhead

Another type of my colleague : BLOCK HEAD

Here goes the dialog..

Block Head: By right, YOU should treat all of us to lunch cos u are leaving.
Me: Hey, come on, i m going to treat u guys to cakes worth $200 plus (Mille Crepes). And usually when people leave the company, it is the section's treat not MINE. AND i wasn't PROMOTED at all and my pay is the LOWEST. AND u expect me to treat????????? !!!!!

Arrgh... When 7 of the people in my department got promoted, they didn't want to treat us 7 times. By right, usually the one who got promoted should treat the whole department individually. But they want to save money, so they treat all at one shot. AND THEY EXPECT ME TO TREAT THEM WHEN I AM LEAVING?

My mum who worked in the civil service for 25 years told me that all i need to do is to buy sum cakes n treat them. That's all.

If you want me to treat 17 of u to good food. It will be like $1k for me. and i am going to be unemployed. Please spare a thought for my wallet man. Arrgh...

I cant wait to get out of this place.

First Viewing

Today was my first day of viewing. I was really excited. There were 2 buyers who were really keen in the properties.

The night before the viewing, i was getting ready all the documents, past transactions and other informations that are relevant to the buyer.

Den i realize i forget the "Offer to Purchase" form. So i head down to Toa Payoh to get the form. When i reach Toa Payoh, i realize that the office is closed on LABOUR day. Hahahaha... What a big blunder..

But my friend managed to pass me the form. So phew...!

So the first buyer came, they are very sweet couple and they look really young. They were keen but price is too steep and location wasn't to their liking.

Second buyer came, young couple as well. Abit quiet, didn't talk much or answer much of my questions. Guess they are pretty private people. Will call them in 2 days time to find out their response.

So in the meantime, what do i do?

I HAVE to source for other units to standby to bring those 2 buyers. I can sense that they want to buy around this area. And i hope i can help them achieve their aim. :)

Wish me all the best! :)

Cheers to a great Saturday!

:S Part 2

Need to type it out to get it off me ..

I went to long face to tell him that we will start the handover at 945am when he is ready. Long face acknowledged it.

At 10am... Long face walked past my cubicle.

Long Face: Are you waiting for me? or Am i waiting for u?
Me: O, i am waiting for u.
Long Face: How come u never come and find me?
Me: I know you are busy with your stuff. Once u settled your stuff, i am sure u will come over.
Long Face: Everyone is BUSY. (Den he walked off to do his stuff)

I am sure I have enuff of Long face syndrome to last me the week. That will attribute to the 10% irritating factor of a week. I am sure the next 90% of the week is gonna be great because, what irritating stuff can happen has happened.
