Monday Again

It is Monday again. Well in a few hours time, Tuesday is approaching. Had a busy Monday at work though was fun. Cleared lots of work and have started on my appraisal preparations. It was raining during lunch time, but still went for tea with Lemon-san. After our tea session, we shopped around the mall, bought my favourite Marks and Spencer biscuit. Fashionably yours walked in the rain with Lemon-san, sharing an umbrella, wearing my Ferragamo High heels....so romantic :))

So much so for now.....oh it is raining while fashionably yours is blogging now and drinking a cup of nice hot tea. Feel so warmth and loved. Hope your Monday was good. If not, it is ending soon and tomorrow will be a better day.

Good Night and sweet dreams everyone.

Enjoyable lunch + office crisis

Today had an enjoyable lunch at McDonald with my wonderful buddies. We ate the SGD4.50 McValue lunch. Alot of funny things happened during our this lunch. First I went to the wrong counter to buy our meal. They nominated me to buy the food so I asked Lemon-san which counter to queue. He pointed me to the other counter, so off I went to the other counter to quene up. We wanted to change the soft drinks to cuppacino so we topped up SGD0.60 each. After I bought the food, Yuan-san then saw me quene up at the wrong counter, because we wanted our cuppacino to be served in those porcelin cup, so should quene up at the McCafe counter. The normal counter will serve cuppacino in those plastic cups which we do not want. Anyway the staff changed it to Porcelin cups for us. So you see, my wonderful buddies did not give me proper instructions when I asked them which counter to quene. Yuan-san said he forgot to tell me to quene up at the McCafe counter. Secondly, did not ordered french fries without salt for Seng-san because he also forgot to tell me. Luckily we have another group of colleagues coming to lunch with us, so they can order french fries without salt and swop with us. Thirdly, I order wrongly for Lemon-san, he wants to eat fillet o fish but I ordered chicken burger for him. In the end, Lemon-san also ate the chicken burger. So many funny things happened and we laughed and laughed. We are always like this, surely have something funny to laugh about. Yesterday lunch also funny things happened, I ordered Pig Stomach soup with pork ribs, but the soup does not have pig stomach meat. I returned the soup to the stall and they change it to other soup for me. Another funny thing was I requested Seng-san bought to buy fruits for me. I told him I want to eat 2 pieces of papaya and 1 piece of water melon. Ended up, the stall helper forgot to give me watermelon. We laughed again over these.

Presenting our McValue Lunch

After our lunch, Lemon-san and I went to HMV to browse CDs. The rest sat and chat at the McCafe followed by shopping at Marks and Spencers for more offer biscuits. All in all an enjoyable lunch with my wonderful buddies.

It was a good day all along today till some work crisis happened in the evening. Some culprit deleted my important folder in my server. I panic, screamed and jumped. Then quickly seek help. Told my people that they cannot go home till they restore my data in my server. They troubleshoot and luckily found my data and restored in my server. That folder contains very important database because it contains important information for my ISO audits. We have cleaned up the security level for my server access and dedicated it to only a few authorised personnels. What a way to end my working day.....Thank God, my data are restored. Was feeling very moody and angry initially but feel better after my important data are restored. At first wanted to investigate who is the culprit but on 2nd thoughts decided not to since my data are restored. Better channel our resources to more productive and efficent usage.

Working life

Today kicked start a project at work. Get the ball rolling and arrowed a few key personnel. I can see they are taking actions at their end after I arrowed them. They are feeling stressful given the tight deadline I gave them. They negotiated with me to extend the deadline. Of course I am negotiable. However I cannot extend too long for them because alot of planning and work is involved at my end. Have another tough and major project coming soon next month. That one can make my people headache. I have forewarned some of my people that next month fashionably yours is gonna kick start that too, so be prepared for it. Argh....so many projects in the pipeline.....Thank God I still have a job during this economy crisis and is making me so so so busy that I don't have enough sleep.

Yes, major projects are tough, but glad I have wonderful people in my team to work with. Have our fun at work with laughters and we will pull through the projects successfully. They are in safe hands because I am handling it. They knew I maybe tough with them and is stressful for them to see and hear my name, because it means work. Some even try to avoid me when they cannot submit their reports to me on time. My people are so funny. However, nothing can escape fashionably yours' X-ray eyes. I can easily spot their mistakes and ask them to re-submit their reports.

So much so about work. Of course besides work, fashionably yours had my lunch time retail therapy together with my wonderful buddies. We bought lots of biscuits and chocolates at Marks and Spencer because it is on offer. We also had enjoyable lunch together with lots of laughters. Feel blessed to have my group of wonderful buddies, who never fail to bring cheers to my days.

Fashionably yours is tired now after my long day. Need my beauty sleep now. Another long and fun day tomorrow. Good night everyone and sweet dreams :)
