Piglets... piglets...

Just came back from my parent's home and i'm nw bz washing clothes before my lao gong & i leave for the airport at ard 3 plus am. Yes... It's finally here. I'm gg for my honeymoon to US le!!!

Before the excitement kicks in, i'd received a wonderful surprise from my lao gong. It's my advance b'day present. I can remember ard 1 or 2 mths back, i bought a piglet design box from Watsons and told my lao gong for my b'day this yr, he has to fill up the box with piglet stuffs. Every now and then i would ask him how he's "faring" and he will always say why ask so many times. There was 1 time where he dared me to find the box which he'd put at hm. Nt more than 2 or 3 mins and i found it deep inside the kitchen cabinet. And then i would always "suan" him that i'm a smart gal :p

Back to the surprise that i'd received just now. My dad sent me back home as my lao gong was still @ work. When i opened the wooden door, there it was the piglet box. I almost forgot abt it =p and my mum was asking me what is it and to open it and see...

The box was filled with a lot of pinkish stuffs and then i saw my beloved piglet which i always hug to slp inside the box. He played cheat by putting it in to fill up the box but he'd asked me a few days before whether i want quality or quantity. Inside the box was a medium-size piglet wearing a red scarf, a small-size piglet, a mini piglet, a piglet hp chain, a piglet mug, 6 rocher chocos, a b'day card and lastly the greatest surprise - a Burberry Blue Label Wallet!!!

I was so touched with the effort he put into this b'day present. I can say it's the most memorable b'day present ever received from him. Thk u & love u dear dear :p
A few more hrs to go and i'm feeling v sleepy liao but got to "ta-han" until i got on to the plane...
Hope that my US trip will be enjoyable, memorable & fruitful with all the shopping :p

Great Eastern Run

Finally it's over. So stressful as i was running as a team under the corporate category.

My timing 1 hr 16 mins but due to 1 of my team members who did not bring the chip, we were considered as an incomplete team :(

1 of my colleagues fainted due to dehydration & muscle exertion and was sent to hospital. Scared me. Luckily she's okie le. She told me that there'll be her 1st and last 10Km run...

Now counting down to my US Trip... Yeah :)

Old School @ Mt Sophia

Went to a nice place called Timbre @ Old School, Mt Sophia on Wed. It was dinner cum prize presentation by Wheels Asia, a car magazine. Again, my lao gong won something in a contest he'd joined. He had won quite a few times from this magz and i always tell him that must be nobody join, and so u can easily win :p


Prizes were worth $2000+ but the stuffs are all related to car - polishing, a set of tyres etc.


Anyway, nice ambience & qte gd food. Think can go there someday again but then qte 'wu lu' also...

Teambuilding

Last Friday was the Teambuilding day for the 2 sales depts.

Venue: Harris Resort @ Batam

Me and Lilia were on the 1st ferry @ 7.50am together with the event co-ordinators; 1 of them is maine whom we'd 'engaged'. keke...

1st caught-up: One of my colleagues was late and hence, missed the ferry. Luckily we still have another gp of colleagues taking the 2nd ferry @ 9.20am and that she cld join them.

2nd caught-up: One of my colleagues who was supposed to be on the 2nd ferry had forgotten to bring her passport. Hence, maine's boss got to wait alone at the ferry terminal for her to go hm and take her passport.

The activities were great but too bad it rained heavily and we had to shift our games indoor. Luckily, the rain stopped after lunch and we cld play the 'Flying Fox' which was 5 storeys high. Exciting... It's been so many yrs since i last played in Sec 3...

All the games ended at ard 3.30pm and we got to rush for the closing speech and prize presentation. Me, Lilia and the event co-ordinators were so anxious as the last ferry was at 4.30pm. We were counting down the time as we had qte a number of prizes to give out. My heart was beating so fast that time as we were also planning a surprise for the bosses (as bosses' day was the prev day; 16 Oct).

As i was waiting at the back of the rm for the correct time to bring out the cake, i heard my name from the front. Lilia's & my boss had given us a gift for our effort in organizing the event. I was so touched and rushed out to receive the gift. It consisted of a cushion, bear, thumbdrive, USB fan (all branded under DHL) and a swatch watch. So happy :)


When the cake was finally pushed out, the bosses were v happy. We also presented the cards that we hand-made for them. It was a nice sight then :)

After cutting the cake, din even have time to eat and they started packing up and rushing down to the lobby to take the bus to the terminal. It was such a 'kan cheong' sight :)

After everyone left, there were still 20 over of us who had personal extension. Went back to our rms to wash up and had seafood dinner. It was v affordable. 19 of us; each pax S$23.

After dinner program was mj, games & drinks at 1 of the rms. Played till 3am and off to slp aftr that.

Saturday's program was SPA!!! My colleague had earlier booked the appt for Spa at a place half an hr away from our resort. Had a 2 and a half hrs treatment consisting of full body massage, steam bath, body scrub, body mask and lastly bubble bath. So shiok... And it costs ard S$55. I also did pedicure but price was almost the same here; at S$25.

Overall, a successful activity.... Relieved and glad :)
