Lastly, an uber entertaining email from my officer. =D

Subject: Competition Time - Naming the Meeting Rooms.

Dear all,
As you know we have quite a few meeting rooms and calling them 'meeting room one', 'meeting room two' and so on, is not very memorable.
We would like your suggestions on what we should call the main meeting rooms on the first and second floors. There are a maximum of 8 meeting rooms to be named.

Please send me your suggested theme/room names by Wednesday, 12th September and we will select the best entry.
There will be a bottle of bubbly for the best suggestion!
Best of luck!
Regards,
Dim



Reply 1, from a very handsome foreigner in our office, unfortunately a himbo or lamer, you decide:

I'll suggest Italian fashion designer

Valentino, Balenciaga, Cavalli, Dolce, Gabbana, Ferragamo, Moschino, Prada, Versace, Zegan...

For one floor and French Fashion designer for the other floor :

Cardin, Chanel, Courreges, Dior, Lacroix, Gaultier, Givenchy, Hermes, Lanvin, Saint-Laurent, Rykiel.

Regards,
Nic



Reply 2, a patriotic but ultra creative(?) & much smarter guy whom i do not know:
Being Scottish, I would propose naming the rooms after Scottish Lochs.

Some of my favourites are:
Loch Awe,
Loch Crinan,
Loch Earn,
Loch Leven,
Loch Lomond (the largest, and therefore suitable for the largest meeting room),
Loch Lubnaig,
Loch Ness (the second largest and also the home of "Nessy"),
Loch Venachar.


They are easier to pronounce than you think. Below is a link to a bigger list in case my theme makes it, but my specific choices do not.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lochs_in_Scotland

And if you wanted to separate the two floors, you could always name one floor after Lochs, and the other after Mountains (Which have the prefix "Ben")

for example:
Ben Cruachan
Ben Lui
Ben Nevis
Ben Vorlich

Here is a list of Scottish mountains (well the Munros anyway)... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Munros

Ian


Reply 3, can't lose out to patriotic guy but boring female:

Shenton Way
Somerset
Newton
Scotts
Bugis
Marina Bay
Lavender
Queenstown
Dhoby Ghaut
Woodlands
Riviera
Farrer Park
Little India

> I LOVE Mango... juice
I can drink 2 cups of mango ice blended during lunch. Then during dinner, i can still eat mangoes!
Where do you find yummilicious & cheap mango ice blended?? At Amoy Food Centre, Level 2. And it's only S$1.50. CHEAP!
Alternatively, i love soursop blended, guava with plum powder blended, strawberry blended and also a mix juice of pineapple, papaya & milk (this cost S$1.80).


> I HATE long queues...
REALLY!!!! Usually a long queue turns me off but now... i willingly queue more than 20mins for my mango juice, for my Bee Hoon Kway, and for DONUTS too....
Do you know that I actually queued for more than 1hour for Missy Donuts at Plaza Sing. I can't believe myself.
I dun like to eat ondeh ondeh... Yet tat time i queued more than half an hour for my colleague cuz i had nothing to do. I tried it but i still dun like ondeh ondeh. It's the famous ondeh ondeh at Maxwell Food Centre.


> I LOVE Amoy & Maxwell Food Centre
Think i need not say much ba... Except yummilicious!


> I LOVE Zouk!!!
Gimme Zouk over MOS or any other clubs anytime!!!
Me, no like St. James Power Station. Urgh!
Me, is going to Zouk, this Sat, for Paul van Dyke! *smug*
Me, love Zouk's drinks. Shiok! haha!


> I LOVE shopping. (Who doesn't?)
Getting hooked to online shopping too. *jialatz* You see my online shopping links at the right side?
For a pair of shoes, i bought last year but uo to date, with nothing to match its grey colour, i have not worn it. Recently, I bought a pair of pants and a skirt just to match it FINALLY. Actually, i could have just bought the pants and forget it. But being too deprieved of not wearing the shoes before, i went to buy another matching skirt. Ha!
Is this grey really so hard to match? The pic of my shoe.
Kel's wardrobe is TOO SMALL to contain my stuff!

> I LOVE HER!

My baby sister. A picture says a thousand words. =D

Lastly, is this dress nice? Do you think i should buy it?

thoughts cant focus

.
today my thoughts are weird. they seem jagged, shattered or in-pieces? they simply cant focus.

been feeling down for the past few weeks. indescribable... pain? yearning? confusion? heartache? i dunno.

need to keep myself busy, to focus on other matters till its all over. but the mind refuses to help. its getting lazy due to its inactivity.
i am getting lazy together with the mind, too lazy to do anything. to lazy to do wat i should be doing to achieve my goals.
or am i subconsciously trying to escape from reality? or am i finding excuses?

yet when the truth forces me to face up to it. dark fear overwhelms me. tears flow freely. the knowledge of it, the power of it, is overpowering.

and i allow it to overwhelm me, to control me, to render me helpless. to be pathetic.

i am getting out of hand.

"once again, she did it.
sorry. she's really sorry.
please forgive her for her mistake..."

.

stop asking so many questions la!

.
I SIMPLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND! Why do some people like to ask so many questions, especially when i am doing them a favour?

Why am i so fed-up?
Bcuz i asked some of my friends if they were interested in ordering nail polish or perfumes online, which was much cheaper. And some of them ask too many questions!

What type of questions?
1) how do you know of this website?
2) is this website reliable?
3) are the products sold real or fake? (when i ans them with REAL, some can still ask again 'sure anot?')
4) wat benefits do we have if we order from this website?
5) do you have any friends who have bought products from the website?
6) if yes, are they satisfied with the products? if not, why?

ARGH!!!!!!!!

Obviously, i would have checked if the websites i gave them were trustworthy sites that sold authentic products, before i asked my friends, right? By checking, it means that i have other friends who have bought products from the websites and they are very satisfied with it.
Who, in their right minds, wants to be blame for introducing their friends with fake or unsatisfied stuff, right?

Furthermore, why do i even bother asking my friends if they were interested in ordering the products anot?
Bcuz the prices were much cheaper and if we mass order, there could even be a bigger discount, for everyone to enjoy!

So caoz! I AM DOING YOU A FAVOUR LO!!!!

Walau eh! Not as if i got commission if you order lo! If i do earn commission, then kindly distance yourself from me and do not even consider me as your friend, ok?

Thus, if you are interested in ordering, just give me the orders. Kindly DO NOT, i repeat, DO NOT ask so many questions. It makes people very pek-chek one, you know!

If you ask so many questions, i will only feel the following :
1) you don't trust me
2) you are a cheapo cuz you want it super cheap and also super good. (u r e type of person who 'ai-pi-gu-ai-chi'. in hokkien, pls)
3) you are simply to lazy to find out yourself and just want people to do all the work for you (u r kns.)

My suggestion for the above: DON'T BUY! harlow! No one is forcing you!

If you wanna buy, please be more 爽快(shuang kuai).
If you dun wanna buy, you can still be 爽快(shuang kuai).
Like some of my other friends. Muacks to them!

If i know it was to be so 麻烦(ma fan), i won't even ask lo. Seriously, when can i ever learn to stop being helpful?!

After all, I DO have the option of not asking if anyone is interested. And i can just selfishly and happily place my own orders without any unnecessary trouble.

End of rant.

Finally...
Do enjoy...
The long-awaited...
