Hello Prudential ............. for now..

While Ruxin left Prudential, I am Back to Pru... hehehe for a while... i think!!!!!
A few of my colleagues and myself is being seconded to Pru to Kick Start the Project after the bought over of my existing company. We are the so call " 精英" that is being selected to go into the new company first to kick start.[With effect of 1st Feb 2010, there will not be UOB Life Assurance.]
My new reporting office is at Cuppage Starhub center at somerset.. the location wise is good but the spending wise is high.. hehehe..
No matter how i missed the "good life" i have in UOBLA, i know that it is gone forever liao... it might be something good as well. Because as of now, if i really need to leave wherever i am, i can do so readily....

Not too sure what is in store for me, but i will be positive about it...

Oh Gosh....... I 've been approached by an "Ang Moh"

How it happened was....

Just now after work, I was walking through the tunnel towards Raffles MRT station like any normal days.. Suddenly i heard someone said something.."Are you on you way home after work?" i tot it sounds like one of my male colleague that like to "disturb" me so i answered "yeah" even before i turned to look at the person... and when i turned, i saw it is actually not someone that i know but is an "ang moh".. i was like...so embarrassed !!!

Cut the long story short, we chatted for awhile while walking towards the mrt station, when we reached the entry gate, he asked me if I could give him my contact so that we could keep in touch and we could go out for dinner and catch up ...... he even proceed to ask me out for dinner immediately!!!!... (Sounds familiar... as it happened before.. hahaha.. lol..) Of course i said "No", then he proceed to ask for tmr, wed, thurs or fri... and my straightaway answer to him is "i usually have something on in the evening so i am not free... then i said "why dun you give me your contact and i will contact you when i am free." hahaha.. he wrote down his contact and his email on a card and gave to me...

Anyway He said the reason that he talked to me is that he was walking home as well, and he thought he saw me smiling at him and that I looked liked someone he knows, therefore he chased up to say "hi" to me.. in my heart , i was thinking, i'm so tired why would i smile at you... and even so you should not talked to me through the "walk" of the tunnel, asked for my contact and even asked me if we could keep in touch , knowing that i am not your friend....

Anyway, the claim is that he is from london, a fund manager handling some hedge funds, working at AIA building. and also dun know what else... [hehehe his british accent too strong , some words cannot understand...]

Actually i been approached by "lu ren" ~ strangers before.. (hehehe a bit "pai sei")... but this time round, i have "upgraded" to an ang moh.. i realised that they are more upfront.. and not "shy" in approaching girls, even during busy time like walking on a busy streets with lots of people... hahaha... Ai ya... when i told my mum what happened, she asked to see the Hp number.. .. so that she can buy 4D!!! LOL...

Its Finally signed......

The sale of the company is finally done.... officially i will go back to the 1st company i worked, in 1st Feb!!!! after a big round i will still go back to the company.... tentatively.. hehehe... p.s. cos they might not want to take all the staff.. pray for the best outcome ..... which is that they will operate us as a separate entity so that we can stay intact, if not it will be sayonara to my beloved colleagues soon..............

Got my increment notice, i wanna thank God for His Favor!!! it is considered good for a staff that worked less than a year (i worked for only 8 months).. i think my % increment is the same as some of those that worked for years there.... Thank God for a good appraisal..... i think there will be 1 good news in Feb (ang bao) and 1 more in March (Bonus)... hehehe.. prayerfully that it is gonna be good...

Not worried about my rice bowl! hahahaa... cos i know "All things worked together for the good to those who love God"... i put my trust in Him!!!

Loving forward for new changes in life!!!

What do i like to do when i dun know what to do.............

I was tired after a day of work and when i get home today, there is nothing to "entertain" me, the show on TV is lousy, nothing much on the net.. it is really those days that i really dun know what to do... so what do i do when i dun know know what to do... hmmmm ......

Look at my money collections... Hahaha.. you must be thinking, wow so "eng" ah... or wow so much money ah!!!.. not exactly...

I used to collect money though its not alot... (from other countries or special kind of money), now still do collect special ones, but most of the time i spend them instead of collecting them... LOL

Below are Singapore "old" coins, those that are not usually used but still can be found in the market...

The old coins that i have.. $1, $0.50, $0.20, $0.10 and $0.05....

The Old Singapore $1 coin ... i dun think there is any one that is using this now...

Too bad, 1967 is the oldest in the market Singapore coin that i have... Though you cant really find it anymore..

Some special coins that i have... that is something besides circle in shape...

These are real coins that are used in Singapore donkey years ago.....

Question: Is $0.01 the smallest denomination used in Singapore? The answer is NO...

I think a 1/4 Cents is the smallest.... But right here, i own One 1/2 cents coin...

i dun think the govt will make any 1/4 cents anymore, knowing that alot of singaporean dun even to bother to pick up a 1cents coin on the floor.. anywhere i heard from somewhere that it takes 16 cents to make one 1 cents coin....

On the coin states.. " Commissioners of Currency Malaya #1940# "..... My mum has the quarter cent coin, but she refuses to give it to me....Sigh!

Besides Coins, i also have alittle notes collections>>>>

Theses are the older notes that we used to see, but not so much anymore.. now everything has become plastics....

Like i say, besides Singapore coins, i also collected coins from other countries...

these coins are mainly given to me by my dad when he travels in the past.... these coins holds memories of my dad when he is still around.....

Some special ones:

5 yen from Japan... dun know if they are still using these??? this one look like those ancient "jiao".. hole in the middle to be stringed up...

This super light and plastic like coin is from Zhong Hua Ren Ming Gung He Guo... Republic of China... is Yi Jiao, made in 1997!

All in all, i have coins from Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, Australia, Canada, USA, Japan, China, Netherlands, Germany, and even Spain ( the country that i longed to go)... Some i dun even know where they are from....

Like these 2, i cant figure out the writtings on the coin....

Had some notes too....

The notes are fewer......

Notes from Italy, China, Brunei, Canada, Hong Kong, Korea, USA...

This Note looks like those that people burned.. hahaha... and its from.......

Thats all for today... I am going to count my $$$ Liao!!!!!

Few days ago, i had a dream.... In my dream, i dreamt that someone in my family which i dun know who adopted 2 children.. the "me" in the dream, very vividly is someone who never plays or bothers with the 2 children, then 1 day i saw 3 child(including the 2 adopted childrens) sleeping in a bathtub showroom at level 4 of a shopping center, i walked pass them and i was at level 1. Then all of a sudden, i saw the bathtubs at level 4 tumber down to level 1.. i was Shocked!!! i ran like never before to the area, where the crash happens and when i saw the 2 kid, i hugged them and cry like never before... my cries are liken those that are super duper loud and dramatic... then i woke up...

you guys must be thinking that i am so wu (2) liao (2) to write this nonsensical dream here.. hahaha.. it did not just stop here....the main point is not the dream, the main point is this... After i woke up and head to wash my face - i saw my face in the mirror, i had 2 puffy swollen eyes.... those that you would get after you cried hard the previous night.... I reckon that i might have really cried.. hahaha.. Do you think so?

anyone have such experience before - "crying" in the sleep??
