Work ..work and work..

The title has been my tagline since 2-3 months ago... check out what i did in the hotel during a business trip to Sabah:

I was like a college student trying to get myself familiar with all the presentation materials...

Sabu Sabu with friends...

A few of us went for Sabu Sabu steamboat to celebrate ET and Fung's brithday...as most of us were busy eating, i only managed to take a few pics... =)

My Darling...

Because of my work, i hardly chat with my sis and of course hardly get to see my nephew via webcam lately...i suddenly realized he has grown up so so much when i chat with my sis today...he learnt to walk, talk, do funny facial expression and many more...I really miss him alot! Sis and Bro in law, i miss you both a lot too!!

Finally....i wrote something new in my blog...

I must say this again: I finally post something new to my own blog after 2 months...I shall summarize what has happened lately:
- I completed my 1st proposal paper in UMWT, it went a long way for approval and finally got rejected by 1 man =(
- 3 new and ad-hoc campaigns kicked off in the month of Apr, May and Jun
- I started to work late, later and latest...
- I had my first domestic flight to Sabah for branch visit
- I break the record of not going back to Ipoh for 2 months

Thank God i managed to cope with the stress that i had from ridiculous timeline and heavy workloads and im really glad things are better now...

So many times i wanted to give up but am happy that people around me has always been giving full support and encouragement and not forgetting strengths from above to keep me going on...

Malaysia F1 Grand Prix

I should have posted these 3 weeks ago...haha, but as usual, am busy and lazy..anyway, these are some of the pics taken during this year's F1 race. Well, not so much of an happy and personal affair but rather WORK! Some of us had to work on that day to bring some customers cum winners of a contest to the grand prix, it was really hot and loud but ultimately is an experience to see the race live.

Singapore !!

Thank God that i was given an opportunity to attend a marketing course in Singapore regional office.. my first business trip in Toyota and my very first trip that i have to fly alone. ( now i know how mom feels when she traveled to Melb alone and visit sis).

Let's talk about the course first: honestly, i find the course fruitful, we have different colleagues from different country such as Korea, India, Thailand, Philippine, Taiwan and others to share their market situation and we had case study on Corolla. I get to know how people manage a product that has been existing so long the market and different markets will need different approach managing a product life cycle. I get to personally meet the people that i have always talk to on the phone and email....it was a fun yet very fruitful course. I wish there are more these that i can attend in future too...

I didnt really get a chance to shop around much but i visited James, Vanessa, Kiat and Joo Lian, and not forgetting that i wanted to go and see animals so i went to the ZOO...hahahhaha...

Check out the hotel i stayed:


And here comes the ZOOOOOO:
My thoughts after the trip: i have always think that i never like jobs that required traveling nor exploring my career in other countries, but i think i don't mind to explore my career out of Malaysia if opportunity comes, there are so much to see and learn out there...

Paul & Meng's Wedding

Went for Paul & Meng's wedding tonight, Paul is my colleague and Meng is actually from our creative agency. Indeed honored and glad that they invited me to be at this special day and i must say both of them made a really cute and matching couple. Congrats!

TQ Dinner

Toyota has this annual dinner known as Thank You dinner last Saturday, and obviously serves the purpose of thanking all the staffs for their hard work and contribution towards the company for the past one year. This year's theme is Bollywood!

Farewell

I took half day leave on Tuesday because dad and mom were down with sis, bro in law and Yong Shuan to KL...not for shopping of course but to send sis back to Melb. Sobsob "( ..
We went lunch, then went home bath, get some rest, fed Yong Shaun and off for KLIA, and knowing me, i took as much pictures as possible.

Sis, Jie Fu and Yong Shuan, i miss you guys alot, let me save enough for air ticket and have a leave approved then will come visit you guys!

Work...work...work...

The older i am, the more i realized i am more like my dad- we are workaholics! I remembered i used to complained a lot about dad working late and never take us for holiday back at those days....but now i feel like him and behaving like him. Understand that these are not the right type of working attitudes but i just can't seems to tune it right..sigh! I always think i am still young and while im still young, i should work as hard as possible and learn as much as possible, and i hope i am learning the smart way....
Sometimes i just feel so tired................

Back to Ipoh again...

Although i just went back to Ipoh for a long CNY break, yet i made it a point to still go back the following weekend since sis, bro in law and Yong Shuan is going back to Melb soon. I just wanted to spent more time with them before they leave coz the next time to see them will probably be another 6months-1 year already, unless i save enough for my air ticket to fly there and visit them =)

No one wanted to tumpang my car back 2 weekends ago except Ken was nice enough to drove me back and we spent doing nothing much the weekend but to eat, take more angpow and play with Yong Shuan, and i took more pictures with Yong Shuan:

Chinese New Year!

Hahahha, Happy belated CNY to everyone! Apologies... as now only i have the time to post some pictures taken during CNY up to my blog. As usual, i took leave during the reunion dinner eve and traveled back to Ipoh with friends, in order not to jam the highway, we all decided to car pool. (Wise decision ha...) Thank God there was no jam and we reached Ipoh around 10pm that night. Immediately the next day morning, Dad, Mom, Ginger and myself headed back to our lovely hometown - Sg. Petani, and yes, Ginger travelled with us...itsd actually kinda fun to have our dear Ginger with us along the entire CNY break, atleast i have her with me since sis will only be back with bro in law and Yong Shuan the 2nd day of CNY. Below are some pics taken during CNY, enjoy viewing:
