2012 First Day of Work

Today is my first day of work in the year of 2012. I slept very late last night as baby keep on don't want to sleep, maybe cause her mummy is not around. Anyway she finally slept at around 2.30am and I immediately went to sleep as I had to wake up for work. Early in the morning, my mum came and help me feed baby so that I can sleep more. Thank God. I was so tired. Anyway, went to work expecting a good day and less stressful day as it is the first day of work. Unexpectedly, the stress level was damn high. The big bosses in SG were anxious to have a good start to the year and keep pushing us for numbers and keep on sending emails over and call my direct bosses. I felt so stressed out, as my team's number was not good today. Another thing is maybe cause I was tired and unhappy that we did not really do well last month and my overriding got slash by a lot. Today is also the day where one of my staff Rihanna get transferred to another team. This is to allow her to perform better with a slightly different job function as she was struggling in my team. Anyway, the team escorted her to the Internet team and my other staffs told the Internet team not to bully her. Also, we went to lunch together as a team at Old Town as a farewell lunch for her. The rest of the day is SOP, just with extra stress. Towards the end of the day, my direct boss Ken received a call and his face changed and he told me he had to go back to KL as his dad passed away. I am unsure of the reason but I think I will find out later.
I worked till pretty late today and only got home at around 9pm. Gosh, I was tired, stressed out and hungry. First thing I did was to ask if baby is alright today. Thankfully she was alright and did not cry and scream like last night looking for her mum. Anyway, maybe she knows I am tired, and she had been a sweet angel and is already sleeping next to me when I am typing these. Before that, she also managed to skype with her mum but I doubt she knows that her mum was seeing her from the screen.

That's all for today's tired and stressful day. Xuan Xuan, you had been a dear.

End day

Blogging twice a day. This is so unlike me who is so lazy. Anyway today, my baby was having fever, the doc said she got infected by someone so my wife say most likely is me. Her temperature shot up to 38.5 Celsius, so we immediately brought her to a doc.



After that, my wife had to leave for KL to attend training for her new job. Xuan Xuan started missing her mum at night and cried at the top of her voice and a screamed her lungs out. Me and my parents tried everything but she keep on crying for an hour or more. My heart was broken to see her crying so pitifully. When I told her mum, she too feel like crying cause she pity Xuan Xuan. Anyway, now she is finally asleep beside me and her temperature had went down. I hope when she wakes up to drink milk later, she won't cry anymore. Daddy and Mummy loves you Kai Xuan.

2nd day of New Year

Hey it's the 2nd day of 2012. Wondering how I passed the first day? Well, sad to say I was not feeling well then and I had been having diarrhea all day. Luckily I am feeling a lil better now.

Well what's new then? Today is an off day for me as my company takes 1st of Jan as a holiday. Anyway if they don't, it will be a compulsory day off as it is a holiday over at Singapore and no one is allowed to make calls to Singapore.

Today is also my wife's first day working in Alliance Bank Permas Jaya. She has changed over to be nearer to our baby and also for higher pay. Haha. However, this evening, she will need to go up to KL for training as long as 3 weeks till 20th Jan. Good thing is her brother is now taking some courses in Sunway College and is willing to fetch her up and down every weekend so she will not be away from baby for too long. However, on 20th Jan my wife will be taking flight down herself as her bro is coming down earlier and it would be very jammed on the 20th. I hope my wife will be alright as this would be the first time she is taking flight alone and she can be blur like sotong at times.

Anyway, for baby's milk issues, we had stored a lot of frozen milk and also bought a milk powder which baby likes. Tried engafrow but she don't seem to like it. We gave her Wyeth S26 Gold and she seems to love it. According to my mum, that's what I drank too when I was a baby. Ahhhh, like father like daughter!

Long time no post

I guess I've gotten lazy and did not blog for some time. When I looked back at the old stuffs I blogged, i discover that all these can really be memories. When I was still blogging, my baby is still in her mummy's tummy but now she is 4 month old. When I look at how I complain bout struggling at work, I realized, times are still hard but I am earning much better as the commission scheme had improved and the team had became stronger overall. In fact, I've gotten the top team manager award for Q3.



Anyway, today was supposed to be the last working day of the year, but unfortunately I fell sick. I hope we closed off the numbers decently as this month's number is a disaster and I think I am gonna earn very few overriding and cny is coming up next month. Cny is no longer like when we are kids, we just wait and get new clothes and ang pows. Now I have to give ang pows and buy new clothes myself. Oh well, that's life I guess.

Well, let's post some pics of my dear baby girl here

Prenatal holiday. (Day 1 - KL)

Today is the last day of my long vacation. Where have I been? Well a few places. First of all, I started my trip to KL on Saturday with my wife. Before we started our journey we had dried mee poh at the famous shop near my house. Well, nothing fancy there. We set off for KL at around 8 something and we reach KL around 12. Our first stop was at Sunway pyramid. We had lunch there were we had my favorite Bar-B-Q Plaza which is a Thai steamboat that's really yummy.









Now how does that look? Yummy? Well, I think it's pretty yummy and it's a pity there's no outlet here in JB. After that, we basically shop around Sunway pyramid till 3 something. My wife was disappointed when we found out the Taiwanese Mango Shaved Ice outlet, Ice Monster was closed down, and she wanted to eat the mango shaved ice so badly. We spent quite some time at Parkson in Sunway pyramid as we wanted to buy some stuffs for our baby which is going to be born on September. Also, we found an outlet called Chatime selling Taiwanese Pearl Bubble tea which has quite a number of people queuing up to buy. We decided to queue up too to try it. Unfortunately, the quality is so so only.






After that, we decided to go and check in our hotel at Masjid Jamek. We have booked a hotel named Citing hotel and we had never been there. When we arrived there, we were shocked as there was no parking and the street below is very crowded with all sorts of people and does not seem to be a good place to stay. We decided not to stay there, especially when there is no parking and my wife called up some hotels and we finally found a reasonable hotel nearby which is Olympic Sports Hotel. It is not a very high class hotel, but it's clean and situated in a quiet place. It's a relief to find an alternative as I am 100% not gonna stay at the stupid Citin Hotel.

After taking a rest, it's dinner time. We decided to go Winsoon Cafe at Kuchai Lama for fish head bee hoon that my sister in law introduced it to us previously. My wife liked the taste when we tried it previously, so we are back for more.






After that, we went to my sister's place at Petaling Jaya to pass her some children's clothes which my parents bought for her children, Beverly & Caleigh. However, she was out at 1Utama with her family to buy a cake for Beverly whilst birthday fall on 19th May. We decided to meet up there as we wanted to continue shopping at Parkson 1Utama. There, I saw my cute little niece Beverly dressed up as a bee. She was running around and seem quite surprised to see me and my wife. Anyway, we passed the stuff to my sister and we went to explore the Parkson there. My sister in law and her bf who happen to be there met up with us there too. They bought some stuffs for our baby and also for her bf's sister who is giving birth soon. After that, my wife and I was tired out with the shopping and decided to go back to the hotel to rest.

This work is so tiring

Today is a very tiring day. Month end coming and every officers rushing for their sales. We managers have to follow up with their stuffs and chase for the numbers passed down from higher management. Poor me, stuck in the mid.

Unfortunately, my team performance is not up to par yet and I doubt that I would get any overriding. Sometimes I feel so tired out working till late everyday bur yet not gaining any incentives. How to train up and motivate the officers? That is the thought that is often on my mind. Sometimes I get so frustrated that nothing seems to motivate them and some of them just dun listen to instruction. What can I do to lead them better?

Another night lying on bed thinking of these. sigh.
