it is that time of the year again

it is that time of the year again...APPRAISAL time...sigh..sometimes i wonder who invented this process because i sure hate it a lot...who says our bonus must be tied to our performance? who says we must have goals and strategies? sometimes, i think it's from someone who has nothing better to do....why? well...first, it takes time to think of goals, second, it takes time to think of comments, third, it takes time to discuss...some people cry, some people are happy, some people don't feel anything after the appraisal...well, for me, i always hate it...not just because of the 3 reasons i mentioned..but because everytime i need to appraise myself first, i somehow feel like i have not contributed much (even though i work my ass off) and that i will not have good rating :( sigh...oh well...i guess i just have to face the reality...pray for me, pleaseeeeee

my chinese accent

I went back to Kuching in May...it's been a loOOoooong time since i last went back...the last time i went back was abt a yr ago...havent been talking to my friends as frequently as i used to between now and then...and finally, thanks to technology, we are able to connect better without incurring too much oversea calls charges...hooray to skype and viber :) well, in May when i was in kuching, i was being told by my friends that my chinese accent sounds funny...it's not as smooth as kuching accent anymore...har? what? i didnt think i speak like mainland chinese but some ppl insisted i sounded like one..oh well, mayb because of some of the words i used are different...anyway, after a few days in kuching, i was 同化 and speak my chinese like native :) so i told this story to my taiwanese friends who think my chinese is crappy..they kept laughing and denying my chinese ability (@_@|||) there were reasons behind why they deny my chinese ability...look it this post abt my language usage and u will understand...haha...i admit my chinese is crappy!!!
so a few days ago, my friend in australia called me...we had a fun chat...when i first spoke a few sentence, her reaction was: hey, your chinese sounds different...your accent is not exactly mainland chinese accent but taiwanese @_@....well, i havent told my taiwanese friends yet but i could imagine, the answer would be: "your friend lives in australia and i'm sure she is not familiar with proper accent"...hahaha....hey, is my chinese accent really different?!

photos turned into memories

Just recently, i talked about how technological advanced it is these days and many ppl rely on smart phones, and i am one of them...i think my mum could remember more numbers by her heart than me...ask me and i will just be able to give you a few *feeling ashamed >_<* when i was young, i had a note book keeping all the important numbers and dates and when i grew older, i had numbers stored on phones but could still remember the dates and now, i stored all numbers and dates on phone and forget all (except some that i already knew by heart but nothing new!!) well, the other day, i thought i stored too many photos in my iphones and it's better for me to transferred them out in case i lost my phone (may be i think too much coz i didnt have anything as interesting as 陈冠x), but i still wanted to transfer them out just to clear some space...so one day, i finally turned on my desktop at home...yup, the one i bought when i first went to HK..it's still working but slower...it took me abt 1hour to make the transfer..for some reasons, i needed to do it manually one by one..sigh...eventhough it's technology, but somehow, it doesnt fit the description of advance....after a painful 1 hr, finally, i saw all the photo icons in my hard disk....so i proceeded to delete all my pictures in iphones :) i felt relieved and glad that i finally decided to do it *feeling light*
so yesterday, i wanted to use some old photos, i went to my hard disk, went into the folder called iphone backup and only to found out, the photo icons are all with 0 KB!!! what's that mean for my computer illiterate friends? it means, i deleted all photos without saving them!! i now feel like the picture below....
Oh well, look at the brightside, the physical photos might be gone, but the memories are still in my mind and heart :)

my index finger

i woke up at 8am this morning...it's gonna be a busy sunday because i will have class from 1030am to 5pm today and i wanted to make my sunday as fruitful as possible...i always like my breakfast time over the weekend coz that means i can cook something hot and have my breakfast while watching something i really enjoy...and with a cup of hot milk tea, of coz~~~ so this morning, i quickly showered, dried my hair and make my favourite...campbell mushroom soup with noodles...yum yum.
when i was trying to open the can, for some reasons, my can opener didnt work as well...and being persistent and the thought that there was already a hole in the can, i still wanted to open it...so i poked holes here and there, there and here..and the can open halfway without smooth surface...i had a thought in my mind, i know if i use my hand to open it, i would hurt myself...but i told myself to be careful if i wanted to use my hand...so i still decided to use my hand...slowly!! so, i used my hand slowly...the moment i touched the can surface...my blood stained the can...Sh*t....i was only touching it and i got cut??? anyway, it didnt diminish my will...in the end, i still had mushroom soup with noodles and a cup of hot milk tea...the problem is, there is a cut on my index finger....now i realized how important my index finger is...i cant type properly and i cant hold chopstick properly...oh well...i can only blame myself :p

just some random thoughts

感觉我好像自从搬到上海来之后,就不太有什么故事可分享的。是不是工作的性质不一样了,就没有空中飞人的故事可说啦?想想,也可能是因为我不太常出来逛,或者不太注意生活的细节啦。那天,去医院探望朋友。朋友不久前出了车祸。他的脚踏车被一辆小排辆撞到了,人飞了出来,脚被撞伤了,动了小手术。惊人的是,那22岁的小姑娘想推卸责任的说是我朋友骑车不小心,自己从脚车飞出来,脚被脚车压伤,以他无关。听起来就有点好笑。可能大家都慌啦,连借口都没什么理智。哈哈。第一次去上海的医院(从没想过要去,而且尽量避免去。。。)。。医院的环境不怎么好,让我想起在电视上看到的60年代的那种。护士不友善,环境破旧,一个房里有6个人。想当年,我在香港入院时,一房只有2张床,已经让人不能接受了。。。去完那一次,真的觉得人生无常啊。为什么这么说呐?有一个阿姨入院是因为早上不小心在自己家客厅跌伤,骨头断了。另一个阿姨是早上出来走走时,不小心踩到狗屎,滑倒的。。。真的什么事都有。小小的故事,大大的体会。。。
eeeee?好像有点负面ho?

Jane goes missing

it's been a while since i last updated my blog...it had been really busy for me...budget, month end closing and many many presentations and meeting etc...well...i thought of my friends and thought how much they would miss me, so im dropping a line or two :)
a while a go, i went back to my old posts and read them...guess what i found? actually, from old posts to new posts, you could actually tell how one person changed and how one person felt at the time....i felt in the beginning, my posts was full of fresh memories and thoughts...and sometimes very childish too..hahaha..well...and as time passed by, i found myself not as humour as before...mayb because i have been through more ups and downs...mayb i met people who changed my thoughts.....well, u tell me if u have changed or not lo :)
looking fwd to my comment box be filled up~~

mum's greatest love

Finally, after almost one year, i went back to kuching to rest...and it was really good to see everyone and ate what i missed :) mum came to Shanghai with me after my kch trip...it's actually the first time she visited when i moved to shanghai last nov :) mum stayed in shanghai for 2.5 weeks...during the first week, it was better for her coz my sister was here to accompany her...and my sis took her out for sight seeing...when my sis left, honestly, i was a bit worried about mum...i was worried coz she didnt really where i live (coz she was lazy to memorize), she didnt know how to work the spare mobile phone (coz it was a different phone than the one she normally used) and she wouldnt know where to go and how to go about...so what i did was, taught her to use the mobile phone, taught her to work the satellite tv, gave her notes on how to go home, wrote my number on a piece of paper, stuck the phone and tag to her bag just in case etc etc....well, my mum had been a good girl...she didnt go too far...luckily my place was very close to carrefour and a big HK shopping mall...well, these two places made her very happy and she visited supermarket everyday...what's the outcome? look at below~~
well, i really have no idea what are inside and she didnt know even....even 1 month after she went back to kch, i'm still clearing what are in the fridge...i just want to say to mum...mum, i love u~~im so touched that she always made sure i dont starve, always made sure i don't spend money...mum is the greatest!!
