Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to ALL!

Movies!

This school vocation, we have watched 3 movies, usually we will only watched 1 show....but somehow we caught 3....And there was promotion by GV which we were not aware until today. The 1st trip was on 29 Nov we went to watch the winx club and the staff asked if we have children under 12, I told her i have 2 and she charged me 3 tickets' price for 4 pax. The 2nd time we went to watch was for free soI din asked. The 3rd time we went, I asked the staff about the "special price" and he told me he is not aware and asked me if I watch here at the same cinema and when.....These 3 times we went to the same cinema at Vivo City. Until today when i flip the newspaper and saw this GV promotion for movies before noon, every 2 tickets will get 1 free ticket for kids below 12.

J.CO Donuts & Coffee!

Today is super sian day! This afternoon we went to bugis to buy J.CO Donuts for an office events. We bought 2 dozens. At the counter, the staff asked if we have OCBC credit Cards and can enjoy cheaper price for 2 dozens. I show her my NTUC Platinum Visa card by OCBC and she told me no cannot only the 3 cards displayed at the promotional banner! I din argue with her knowing she is ignorant! But I m very upset, once back I email the company to complain and wanna them to enlighten me what is OCBC credit cards if the one I m holding is not. And I wrote, most of the OCBC promotional banners only put 3 standard credit card pictures and all other OCBC credit cards will still be able to enjoy the Privileges! Why J.CO cannot! Because your staff is very ignorant! And they indeed apologised to me just now. Cos I wrote I m not going to encounter the same problem again if I were to patronise them. If the same problem still exist, I wouldnt be so nice talking to your staff this time! hahahah mi very bad! Yes! I m. It is not the offer I m upset over, but the services provided by your staff, dont bother to check and just said "ONLY THE 3 CARDS SHOWN" that make me boiled! To me, I dont take advantage of people and I also dont expect others to take advantage of me! Dont bully me, I will EAT u up instead! Hahahahahah!!!!!:D

Another issue not J.CO now but the school bookshop this time! hazi.......Last Friday, my mum brought my girls to the school to buy the outstanding books and came back realised they gave the wrong books. Instead of a P5 science textbook & workbook, they gave 2 workbook, another 2 science assessment book for P4 when the book list is for P5. So i asked my girl & maid to go back to exchanged. My girl called, and said they dont have stock and they take back books and refund the money. I still double confirm with my girl they returned the textbook money and not the workbook money! However, when I got home, do some calculation, is wrong! They not only return her the workbook money, they returned the money without GST!. HOW COULD THEY! They Charged the textbook money with GST and refund workbook money without GST! OMG! Why these people do business like tat so DISHONEST! So tomorrow need to go back and reason with them! Very easy money hor! Like they can give the wrong book and say no stock and refund the money without GST and when the stock come they charge again the book with GST! Thats why I hate to buy book from their school bookshop, every year also have problems. First, they dont have receipt, then they only have very little selected dates that are open and are always so crowded! I will always buy from popular bookstores and have them delivered to me and only the books they dont have I buy from the school bookshop. And with very little books from the bookshop still have problems!

24 hours a day!

Recently i have been very busy, over children next year's textbook, school uniform, birthday and christmas presents shopping. Everyday is rushing, rushing and rushing! Rush to work, rush to lunch, rush home, rush for dinner, rush them to finish their homework, rush them to bed!

Everyday I(is we) leave the house at 7am, bring the kids to my mum's place then go to office and reach home abt 7.30pm if nothing goes wrong (no traffic jam, hubby work late, me have got company activities).

Then settle down watch my TV programs at 7pm & 9pm sometime also the 10pm. I love to watch TV though i know is a waste of time. So i have actually cut down by selectively....hahahaha.... while watching and hands are not free either. But the lucky things is i do not have to house work because i have a domestic helper which really helped me alot. Because I always think doing house work is a waste of my time! I have 24 hours a day just like everyone else. But abt 10 hrs are being sold to support my lifestyle and abt 7 hours used to "rest". So i m left with only 7hrs which include my meals, traveling and i am basically have only abt 3 precious hours a day to do"my things". Sigh! And these 3 hours also not strictly belongs to me! Still need to communicate with my children and run errand. So all in all I think I m left with 1 hour a day!

Weekend abit more relax because I m not working! But I still have many activities though quite routine. How wish if only i can dont work and become a tai tai at home!"FAT HOPE"! Thats life of a employee!

I was on leave yesterday & today. Because my mum brought my eldest to kuantan and i dint go. But these few days were full of activities. Watch movies on saturday & sunday, Winx Club & Madagascar....winx club is boring but to the girls it was nice! cannot image i actually watch the winx club with them! hahahah.

Saturday evening we still went to PC show, wanted to a NEC notebook. But still I dint buy, cos economy is really bad. May be we shall wait till next year PC show in march. And it was really big and many people, hard time walking around.

Sunday, watch another show because we have 4 free tickets and expired on Sunday. So Madagascar lah, so many kids' show now.

Then Yesterday, brought them to Ikea! They have fun while I shop! Just came back from Tampines, we had lunch there and then they play the Art craft. Supposed to meet a friend there but somehow she dint reply my sms so be it lah!

And so many things happened over the last 1 week! The world is getting crazy and the people too. Bombay & Thailand! My cousin still being "stuck" in Thailand! He went to bangkok with his school teacher & friends on 14 Nov, and supposed to be back on 28 Nov! But what the hell he need to be there for 2 weeks? was back last sat and went straight to hospital.

Next time we go tour, dont stay in 5 stars hotel. 4 stars good enough, if not terrorists like to attack 5 stars hotels, then we will be in deep shit!

I have actually ordered 5 copies via internet. And i went on sat to collect my that 5 copies. However, i was shock to see the queue was very very very long. The collection was 12-6pm on sat at chinatown point and i was there about 3pm. But the queue simply too scary le, i gave up my 5 copies. So i got nothing la. At 1st i thought it wouldnt be long since only 2000 copies and some ppl ordered more copies. But the 2000 copies were like 20000 copies. May be they can think of other collecting method or let the sale of the calendar be at more places rather than just at 1 point. I estimated that i were to join the queue that day, i probably need to queue 1.5hr! I must be mad if i joined the queue! The management must think of other ways lah. Like that cannot!
