Charming London

As the title of the blog says, the city of London can only be described with 1 simple word: Charming.

This was the first impression I got when I was in the airport shuttle and it was driven into over the next 4 days i spent in London Town. Maybe pictures will speak a thousand words...yes..known as Mrs Tey! Where is Mr. Tey?



GlaxoSmithKline Office from the Shuttle












Regent Street = High Street Shopping!












Tower Bridge always mistaken for London Bridge


Life of Mr. Postman and my favourite b'fast cafe, Wolseley...it used to be an old Bentley showroom converted to a very little busy out of this world cafe...yet, many pass by it without even noticing the the double doors that go into another world.Westminister Abbey








One of the stops on Big Bus: St. Pauls Cathedral.. the crazy Scotsman William

























View of Ah Ben on the Big Bus Tour...i stood at the bottom of Ah Ben when it was 12 noon. Listening to the gong of the bells 12 times was just SURREAL....Thats Nessie. William's mom...she is such a nice lady...and the ugliest building...like a freakin scary killer dildo

My new IT bag!

Just soooo excited about my new iconic bag: The Sunset Boulevard in Amarante....going to inaugurate during ah bao wedding.

Worst flight ever...

What else could go wrong with flights? First i missed my 745am flight, changed to 820am flight, walked out of customs to get my tickets, then walked in and it took 20 mins for them to decide they cannot find the new flight details, walked in and out of customs again...finally confirmed a 950am flight. At the departure lounge, there was an annoucement that flight was going to be delayed till 1030am...because they needed to ferry the passengers from Johannesburg...screw it...i thought...but in my heart...was a little consoled i managed a bulkhead seat...which will be nice and spacious...happily got into the plane......35E...was a freaking last row before galley seat and inbetween seat!!! I wanted to Cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy............then I told Paulo the cute steward that something must be wrong...i was allocated a bulkhead! nothing he could do...since the flight was going to be full.....as i sat there in between 2 strangers....the flight was taking longer to depart....tears started to well in my eyes...."why my life so cham?"...think i was real tired...from the night before...

We finally departed at 11am....this seemed to be the longest flight i have ever taken...stuck, entertainment system showing black and white screens...gosh, what else??? just what else???

This better get right.........

My ONE day in Dubai

For one day...think i accomplished too much...flew into Dubai at 530am...checked into hotel at 630am...woke up at 745am to get ready for work. Spent my time in the cab taking in views of deconstructed dubai. Skylines that resemble the views of Shenton on ECP....deja vu...some pics from my 40min cab ride to the office which i think i was ripped off...50 dirhams...

Like I said...the look was deconstructed
Where I stayed...Dusit Dubai. All around was the Shenton Way building in progress project...scary....Too much construction going on...Then it was off to the office...meeting the girls in the office...













My ride in a Porsche














Wooohooo!




The pearl of Dubai....the Burj Al Arab...behind the beautiful Madinat Hotel Al Casa...

There you go...my whirlwind trip of Dubai in a snap shot...then its off to London......

Project WESOBEAUTIFUL and my 2008 Valentine's Day

Me and FatCat embarked on a diet project...the link as follows if you are interested:

www.wesobeautiful.blogspot.com

So far so good...feel lighter...thighs look smaller (like real......) but still trying to fit into my drainpipes...hee hee...

Another year has gone by...what did i do last year? Seriously cannot remember at all....which is a good thing!

Well, this year I spent V-Day playing tennis!!! after that go whack Tian Ji Zou with Hum Bao, Loo and LTM. So much for project wesobeautiful....but hope the tennis works.

I am officially TIRED...got news that I might have to go to London at month end...gosh...dunno if good or bad news. Good so I can finally meet some of the UK counterparts..but not so good cos I still do not know at this point of time...I need to arrange for back-up when I am not around. Too much uncompleted things...still 1/3 through my VS catalogue, 1/2 way through my SHAPE January issue....wish i had more time...

Confirmed my trip to China...5 days in Beijing, 3 days in Xian and 6 days in Putian..this time I am going to make sure my handover is done 3 days before the big trip. Jia You Brigela my best fren Chriss will always say!

New Year! New Look!

Like how the idea is to look younger every year...my blog must also look younger...time to cast out that old ochre shade... =)

Challenges @ work

Mid month and i am feeling the heat down my back...My role just expanded/changed again. thats the 3rd change in 7 mths...well...like i said in my new year post...i guess i learn things the hard way..i need to fast track my career and build my managerial role...I HAVE TO.....fall to the ground running..even if that means burning my weekend. I CAN DO IT!!!!!!

First day of 2008

I have never been happier.....even though that means getting nearer to 29...but its hokays!

Spent NYE at a Hokkien Countdown @ Conrad....funny how we had Deng Li Jun, Yao Surong impersonations...and a very very rude emcee...that scolded guests for not paying attention to their lucky draw numbers! My LTM looking very hokkien and bored...and me very bored too...



Ok lar show a picture which does him justice

After the hokkien encounter, I met the some Tuggers at EM Studio..used to be the old liquid room..watched them down 3 tequila shots in an hour...and like bottles of beer each...I am still amazed how the alcohol just disappears into their bloodstream. A pic of the drunk ones...KQ and Irina was somewhere on the dance floor making out...wahahahahahaha...after which we proceeded to Boon Tong Kee and being the only sober and alive person there...i was laughing my head off to the crap talk that was going on...lucky no one kena road block that night...









2007 flashed past as I sat through dinner...think its been another year of growing up the hard way but shall take it in stride..trust that one day all these lessons will pay off. I slept at 5am early morning of 1st January 2008...by 10am, i was up and excited...pulled LTM out of bed to go shopping with me. Had a simple lunch of wantan mee and popiah at Lavendar Food Court and then went to Suntec to walk walk. wah...i wanted to eat so many things today..but my resolution this year (like every other year) is to lose that friggin 3 kg...so i control..but i ate this really yummy roasted sweet potato. It was roasted till caramalised and all soft inside...biting into it was heavenly.....then there was donut factory's spicy cheese tempting me along the way... By 230pm...I was drowsy....hee hee probably from the aftermath of staying out till 4am the night before and all that carbo inside me churning...time to head back home for a nice pm snooze...before i knew it...i woke up at 630pm...remembering my resolution, i went for a jog! hee hee...then after that whack at dinner time again.. tian ji zou...another favourite...4 of us shared 7 kermits...

1st Jan 2008 - happy and satisfied (hopefully a sign to a fantastic year!)

Time to move on...tra la la la la.........

God is good! When i asked for signs and answers, HE has been guiding me. It has been a rocker roller week for me. Tues meet with Panda. He said wanted to work things out. Friday I went to Barfly rather reluctantly but guess what? Let me catch that dickhead snogging.....apparently his colleague! Men in clubs....such junk. Makes me wonder what he does at the KTV..... pui!

At that point in time, I was shakin and spinnin.....dunno what to do......lucky i got good frens who supported me. Suddenly repulsion kicked in and i felt like vomiting.......this continued for the next 24 hours and i was practically detoxing naturally!

I think if bobo and fat cat were there......maybe got fight! wahaha.........anyway, its time to move on. This shows my decision is right! I did the right thing! Yeah!!!!
