Kiss my toe and call me Queen

家好月圆.

Posted in Queen's Family by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on November 3, 2009

I know I am abit slow, and everyone around me ( especially my sis and aunt!) has been talking about this show.

Moonlight Resonance.

I was still mesmerised with my Chuck Bass, and didn’t bother to check out this show.

And just last month, I brought my DVD player to Darling’s place and at the same time, grabbed some DVDs while making my way out to the boy.

I am hooked!

It’s so niceeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Anyway, I have not finished it and I am determined to clear it by next week.

This show is about kinship, family politics ( ahem, yes, even at your own home) and the ups and downs the family goes through together.

Speaking of family.

If your defination of a perfect, happy family means a set of normal parents with a few normal kids running around the house doing normal things together, then yes, I don’t come from a rosy family.

But I do have a very doting Granny, and a very understanding Aunt & Uncle Jack ( and my cousins! we’re very close to one another) who will always be there for me. 

My family works totally different from Darling’s family.

Our family shows their concern by shouting and screaming ( I guess they’re worried, that’s why that have to raise their voice?), whereas Darling’s mum is ever so patient to all her kids.

Sometimes, I look at how Darling’s family treat him, I feel….envious?

Someday, when I have my own kids, I will be like Darling’s mum. I will hug them and tell them they’re so pretty like angels. And I will kiss them every morning and night.

Lately, we have been going out for dinner, together with Darling and family.

It’s been such a long time since I feel this warmth.

Really, sometimes, I think Darling brings alot of hope and happiness in my life.

Ok, I’m going to wash off my mask and call the naughty boy. His monitor is spoilt and he can’t use his computer.  I bet he must be very bored. Anyway, we were at IMM last evening, and I wanted to get him one for Christmas gift, but he still wanna walk around and compare.

Goodness, I don’t know how he can survive a week without internet!

I know I cant.

 

 

 

 

Golden Finger.

Posted in Better Work Better Life, Happy Queen by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 29, 2009

By right, I should be home resting, but there’s so much work to be done!

End up,  I worked from home, checking my emails from 9am till now ( 7ish!).  

I wanted to watch my Gossip Girl leh.

In between, I went to see doctor.

Just one day alone, I have coordinated 9 interviews ( with 1 potential closure. Or maybe 2? I  just hope we can wrap it all up by next week!).

Please dont think I’m complaining. In fact, I enjoy being busy. Sometimes, I can get sooooooo busy until no time to go for toilet break, no time for small, idle chats, no time to surf other sites.

I have morphed into a busy bee!

Each time my phone rings, I get very excited. Always hoping it’s a call from my clients or my Darling ( these days, he gets a kick from pretending to be a crazy candidate looking for Director/CEO position! haha). Actually, each time before I pick up my call, I always hope my clients would bring me good news, like arranging interviews, or better still,  offering my candidates the role. That would totally make my day!

Hahaha, I sound very 夸张 right?

The other day, when my candidate requested for the weekend to consider the role, my heart went pom-pom-tiao over the weekend too. And I shared with my Manager that I was worried. And at the same time, excited.

My Manager looked at me, wide-eyed and said,” You work in this line for so long liao, you still will get so excited ah?”

OF COURSE!

I still think it was just yesterday I started in this industry.

Still fresh, still blur, there’s still alot of things to learn.

In fact, I face different challenges, different people everyday.

It’s never a bore.

I hope this “fire” will burn forever and I will remain the fighter.

Anyway, I think my work place’s fengshui is very good for me.

My “Golden Finger” is back!

Whatever I touch, I clinch the deal. Ok, most of the time la.

We must be humble right?

Hahaha.

I feel a sense of achievement, because all the clients that I have, is done through my OWN telemarketing or other sources.

And I know my client base will grow!

Okie, no time to blog more.

I gotto run to meet my Darling liao!

Okok, before I go, one word of advice.

Love what you do, do what you love.

Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

 

麻油鸡.

Posted in Daily Rambles, Queen's Family by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 28, 2009

My Granny cooked 麻油鸡with lotsa mushrooms for me to tabao for lunch.

I love mushrooms!

Hmm, maybe next time can add golden mushroom to this dish.

Too bad my camera battery died on me, else, I would have snap a picture of it and show you guys.

Ok, gotto go.

Bye!

Happy 4th Monthsary, Darling!

Posted in Happy Queen, Teddy Love by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 27, 2009

Time really flies and now, we’re already 4 months together.

Sometimes, it feels like we’ve been together for years.

We’re so comfortable in each other’s presence.

No awkward silence or dull moments when we’re hanging out together.

And, sometimes, I still feel the butterflies in me.

Like how we first started seeing each other.

I still feel excited each time we meet up.

We’re not like some couples out there, celebrating each and every monthsary together.

Maybe we both know that we love each other everyday, not that particular day of the month.

No gifts, lavish dinner nor I-love-you from him ( he just say he love me! haha), but I feel happy and blessed.

( And I don’t need this either. Hello? I am no longer those 18 years old little girl. I don’t need those material gifts or words to prove his love. I just know I occupy a rather big space in his heart.)

Today, I didn’t realise it’s our 4th already, until I casually look at my calender while “fire-fighting” with my client/ convincing my candidate to take up the offer ( yes! closed another perm position!), and I see a heart sticker on 27th and wondered to myself, ” hmmm, what’s the special occasion?”

Haha.

Love can be so simple and sweet.

Most of the time, we will check out great deals in the shopping malls, while holding hands.

Lately, we have been spending quality couple-time together.

Like, taking up a new hobby together such as rollerblading in ECP ( and he laughed at me for falling down last week. And then sayang me. LOL!). We have also watched DVDs on bed, munching on popcorns and other tidbits.

HAPPY 4TH MONTHSARY, B!

Suddenly, I just feel like singing along to the song 简单爱.

Goodnight! I’m gonna sleep already.

I want to close many, many orders tomorrow!

Money money, please feel free to roll into my pockets!

♥♥♥♥

Someday, Someone Is Going To……

Posted in The Heart Of The Matter by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 25, 2009

“…..walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.”

I’m waiting for my “stuntman” to fetch me to ECP and so I went blog-hopping and heard this song on the playlist. 

This song never fail to make me wanna cry ( never cry la, just feel it’s touching!)

If I say, this song doesn’t make me think of someone from my past, I am lying.

Sometimes, we just have to accept it’s never meant to be.

And we move on.

Don’t get me wrong.

Nothing’s wrong with me and DFX. In fact, we’re very happy together.

It’s our 4th month soon, and still feels like honeymoon period.

He’s my kryptonite.

And someone I can and will love for a long time.

I thank God everyday for that.

Go listen to the song.

Pay attention to the lyrics.

Does it make you think of someone you once thought there will be happily after?

If there’s something you can change to salvage the relationship, what would you change?

For every failed relationship, surely, we learn something.

I learnt not to lose myself, not to forget who I am. And not to allow people to determine how I should be treated.

All girls should be treated like princesses, not servant. Or punching bag.

Many times, when girls falls deeply in love, they forgot their worth and allow the guy to lead her by her “nose”.

I was one of those stupid girls.

But never will be.

I’m glad DFX doesn’t do this to me.

Most people would assume I am the domineering one in the relationship, since I have that “look”.

I guess only DFX and my close friends know the real me.

So, let’s be nice and treat your other half well. 

Spread the love, people!

 

ps: DFX has gotten me a large Marc Jacobs perfume. Now, what should I get for him for Christmas? Any suggestion?

pss: Gosh, listening to the song makes me wanna go sing K! Bunny, Monkey, DNB! When when??!

psss: We’ve hit our team target! And we’re given half day for pigging session. Any nice lunch buffet to recommend?

Seafood Salad.

Posted in Daily Rambles by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 25, 2009

cats

We, the Wong sisters, have been super hooked to salads.

So last week ( think it was Wednesday night), we prepared our seafood salad lunch the night before.

Look at the fat, succulent prawns and scallops! And my unagi!

And nope, I am not on a diet.

I just love my greens. And I prefer munching it, while reading my work emails during lunch time.

My sister just did potato salad, with smoked salmons. And it’s fabulous!

Maybe, I’ll do it next week!

Alrite, gotto go prepare liao.

I’m going rollerblading with my “stuntman”.

Whatever.

Posted in Daily Rambles by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 24, 2009

So tell me, how long have I left my ex-company?

3 FRIGGIN’ WEEKS!

And yet, I hear little birds telling me who-and-who thought I poached this person to my company, who-and-who thought I do-this-and-that. And who-and-who thought SHE was the one I mentioned in my previous monkey-peanut post.

Aiyo, can you first get the facts right, before you start pointing your fingers at me?

Speculate here and there, and then make me the 坏人. Tsk! You really think too highly of me la. You think I can persuade/psycho someone so easily meh? Even if so, the only person I want to psycho are my clients to offer my candidates, my candidates to accept the job offers, and lastly, MaoMao to call me chiobu (LOL!). Who got time to poach/ brainwash your people? Doesn’t benefit me a thing, at all!

Please wake up your idea.

I won’t do any explanation anymore, because my friends don’t need it, and my “enemies” won’t believe me anyway. It’s their own mouth,  they can say whatever they want. I don’t have supernatural power, I can’t control what they want to think/perceive/judge. The only thing that amuses me in this whole saga is why blame others when their staffs decided to resign on them? Why not spare a few minutes and think why can’t they keep their staffs?

We’re all in the recruitment business.

People come and go, and that’s perfectly normal. And our job is to retain/scout for talent. Don’t you guys also employ people from other agency? But, ahem, fail to keep them for long…..

We ask our candidates or clients the same question everyday, ” What’s the reason for leaving?”

Hasn’t you guys already realised there is always a pull/push factor in every decision made?

Sometimes, it’s not just the pay that the other company offer. It could be the job prospect or whatever. Sometimes people leave for the stupidest, lamest reason….. like the other company  has got more chiobu/yandao or something?  But firstly, what spur them on to look for better pasture? I say, it’s the push factor from the current company. If the current company pays well, why would they keep a lookout, send resume to try their luck? If the current boss is someone they could look up to, why would people from other branches question about her promotion then? If the current targets are realistic, where would people not chiong for the sales ( that being said, sometimes I think they might as well don’t implement the incentive program if they set the target so high. Set so high, pay peanut, 谁稀罕? Sorry ah, not just me, one of your Managers also think the same way as me lor).

So, why blame me?

Just so happened, a whole bunch of people leave at about the same time, and I get the shit? Anyway, they’re also not bonded nor are they your property wad. If your offer is good, by all means, retain them.

Haiz.

Well, I guess all humans are like that. They only love to push the blame to others, or even the whole world, but not themselves.

Ok lor, I’ll be the scapegoat, if it makes you happier.

I do know some people from my ex-company has been reading my blog religiously like a Bible. Whatever I write are my opinions. Do not read it like the Gospel.

Snow White has been advising me to change my blog address. But hor, I can’t think of a better blog address leh. And hor, I like my things to be matchy-matchy. Like my email/ MSN  are  also the same kissmytoeandcallmequeen. Besides, why should I change to avoid these stalkers, who got nothing better to do than to read my blog and then report on me to your Management. Crazy! You think I give a fuck about it? I do love a bit of attention, but not so much la!  This is my personal blog, a blog that I never intent to garner so much attention from you pests. It was purely meant for my close buddies’ eyes, but don’t know which idiot go spread the news la. But oh well, that’s old news and we shall not dwell on this, right?

So if you don’t like what I write here, or you think I am a bad influence to your staffs, then get your IT to block blogspot.com/wordpress.com/liquidblade.com/xanga.com/other domains lor. Better still, block all networking sites. Like how the banks do. 

HAHA.  

Oh yes, I also heard so-and-so hates me now. Well, I’m not surprised.

Whatever lah. Hate then hate lor. I don’t owe you anything, you’re not anyone to me either, so why should I care?

I’ll love to hate you as much as you hate to love me.

:)

 

ps: My cousin has been complaining that my blog has become too wordy. Bobian la, I am a very opinionated, and a very kpkb person.

pss: I’ve added DISCLAIMER at the side. Please read it. I should have done that long ago. Nvm, not too late to do it.

BOOMZ!

Posted in Daily Rambles by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 22, 2009

Lately, I have been using alot of BOOMZ to irritate Darling.

BOOMZ!

When he calls me, I’ll pick up my phone and BOOMZ! And when he turned to look at me, I’ll BOOMZ!

haha

It’s the IT word now.

Everything also can BOOMZ.

You  can also get the BOOMZ t-shirt from here!

And look what I found!

Miss BOOMZ is actually quite cute here.

 

SHINGZ, it’s late. Gotto sleep.

Nite!

 

ps: Don’t know what’s shingz? Go watch the video lah!

Happy Birthday, Kris!

Posted in Better Work Better Life, Happy Queen, I ♥ Parties, Queen Just Wanna Have Fun by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 22, 2009

The party was fun, especially when that certain someone didn’t come.

It was nice catching up with my ex-colleagues, exchanging gossips and jokes.

Food was good too! Especially the prawns.

MaoMao was my satay man for the night. All I did was sit down and peel the prawns.

Oh, before the party, we went rollerblading.

This MaoMao did so many “stunts” that evening and I almost got heart attack.

Ok, as you can tell, I am not in the mood to blog anymore.

So here goes the pictures!

You Pay Peanuts, You’ll Get Monkeys.

Posted in Better Work Better Life, Bitchy Queen by kissmytoeandcallmequeen on October 20, 2009

This afternoon, DNB showed me a resume of our ex-colleague.

Apparently, she applied for this position that we advertised. 

Gosh!

Her resume template follows exactly like my ex-company’s template.

Got lazy until like that anot?

Anyway, I wasn’t keen in the content.

I was only keen to know her salary.

And it’s ermmmm…………………………

Well, let’s just put it this way.

At least, I know I haven’t been 亏待, and in fact, I have been paid me relatively well, as compared to hers.

No wonder people always say this…. you pay peanuts, and you’ll get monkeys.

How true.

No wonder so many monkeys inside there.

:P

 

ps: A little bird came and  told a ‘lil story. I never mention names hor. Don’t quote me ah!

And why are you all so curious to know who is that person? People want to look for better opportunity cannot meh? Tsk tsk! You want clue anot? LOL! Leave a comment, and I’ll reply.
