Motorola L7 and SHA3288S

Attention to who ever pick up my Motorola L7 onboard Comfort Cab SHA3288S on 25 OCT:

I LOST MY MOTOROLA L7 on the 25th October 2006 on a Comfort Taxi SHA3288S. Yes, the phone that i won at the Adventure Singapore 2006, the phone where i had to run , climb, swim absail, cycle to get. So if you happen to take a comfort cab on the 25th October between the time of 8.40pm to 10.30pm and happen to pick up a motorola HP please return it to ME. Yes! i know you took my phone during this period of time and TURN IT OFF on purpose and REFUSE to pick up my call and REFUSE to return my phone to me.

I am telling you there is such thing as karma out there. one day you are going to drop your phone somewhere and nobody is going to return it you. Nobody, and no one is going to sympathise with you because it is your karma. And also, you are going to be on my cursed list forever. You have a phone, you know how you are going to feel when you lost your phone. so for goodness sake, return my phone to me. my phone contains many pictures, contacts and memories that are irreplacable. so please, just return my phone to me.

To you it is just a phone that you can either sell to earn some quick cash, or use as a spare. You can get that easily, for that i would have to replace all my contacts, lost all my irreplace pictures, spend more money and go through all the troubles and emotional trauma. (NOT including getting scolded by my mum.) All this so that you can get a spare phone which you don't even have a charger for goodness sake! You have to buy another charger, while my spare Motorola charger is just going to sit at home collecting dust. So in all, I am telling you....

RETURN ME MY PHONE.

p.s. anyone with any leads of where my phone might be, or you out there decided that you already have enough fun playing with my phone and would like to return it to me. I can be contacted at irau_wei@yahoo.com.sg.

impatience

ok i admit.. i am a super impatience person. so therefore i cannot stand explaining many many times, the same thing over and over and over again... this ranks in my list of cannot stand people after the whinny people...

so when i call to ask abt TRAVEL INSURANCE... You don't answer " Oh, what VEHICLE number."

the whole conversation went like this:

me: Hi, i calling regarding my travel insurance, ref number xxx.

guy: oh, what vehicle number? ---> busy hammering away at keyboard

me: err no it is about my travel insurance claim.... blah blah blah

guy: *still busy hammering at keyboard* may i know what you are calling regarding?

me: [in my mind:$%#@*!] it is regarding my travel insurance blah blah blah ( for the second time)

guy: *continued hammering at keyboard and ignore me then finally* may i know the period of travel? --> ok at least it is a diff question.

me: july blah blah..

guy: hammered at keyboard.... oh is regarding the trip to vietnam in july?

me already at the end of patience: yes, blah blah blah (for the third time)

guy: oh reagrding that, it is ok if i get someone to check and get back to you?

me: yar fine. --> seriously anyone else will be better.

thats all... nothing solved...just simply wasting my time. i mean like seriously, oh man, go get a brain or ears or both lah. TOTALLY CMI.

why is the weekend so short?!!

WHY IS WEEKEND SO SHORT!! who ever invented the week? why is there only 2 days for weekend? that is not fair. we should have equal number of weekdays and week end... hmmm... like 3 days of weekdays and 3 days of weekend and alternate week of 1 day of weekend and weekday to make thing fair right? ok maybe that is a bit the trouble some... other wise we can employ a alternate week working scheme... like we work ofor one week then we rest for one week... cos seriously.. i really dun care if it is a weekday or a weekend.. as long as i dun need to go to work!! wahaha

work work work....

all work no play... and i have no life... starting work at 6.30am and guss where i am now... no prize for the correct answer... yes you are right... i am currently still in the office... how exciting right... i desperately need something else other than work in my life.. so ask me to go watch movie.. dinner or something.... omg.. i have no life.... sian

Announcement

To All who Matters:

Yours truly (that's me) will be back in our beloved little island (also known as Singapore) on the 16th of September 2006.

yup i will be back soon. time passes really fast. and there is still so much i want to do in sydney. guess i will have to visit again, but not anytime soon i think. first because i am getting abit sick of the protein and carbo based food here. ( if i am starting to think about eating salad, something is seriously wrong...) then there is obviously the financial aspect of it, i simply have no money left. yup, i spent most of my money off, going on trips and buying stuff... and i haven't finish all the stuff yet.. oh no... that leads to another problem... i have NOT enough space to bring everything back!! and i want to buy krispy cream. (yum yum)

ok, enough of complains. on to more exciting stuff!! I CLIMBED THE SYDNEY HARBOUR BRIDGE!!! cool right?! ok, it burn about 200AUD off my pocket... other than that it is preety cool... it is super cold up there and the wind speed is 45km/h ( sodespite putting on alot of weight, you can still feel the wind pushing you as you walk.) and the most important thing is that we saw the city cast a shadow of the bridge onto the sky. and the only place that you can see it is ontop of the bridge. and no sorry, there is no picture of that cos NO camera was allowed on the climb. BUT the guide did take a few pictures for us and charge us super ex for the photos, so in the end we can only afford 2 out of the five we took.... so here there are!!



we dressed like we are going for a space mission like that... with jump suit and high tech headphone that send vibration through the cheekbone... among other things that is hook on to us... haha

intoxicated

went to hunter valley yesterday. hunter valley is famous for wineries. so obviously it is a wine trip. so we set off at 8am and arrived at a small countryside place at about 11am where i proceed to have my pumpkin soup, hot chocolate and my first taste of alcohol of the day... it is know as the jungle juice... sold at at tarven right next to the breakfast place... the jungle juice is no juice at all containing 18% alcohol... i only had a small glass... but nearly peng... and that is not the end of it... went on to three different places, the McWilliam winery, the largest family run winery in hunter valley or australia.. hmm... cannot remember already, where we had our lunch of steak and more wine tasting... six different kinds here.. but don't ask me the names.. i seriously don't remember. i like the dessert the wine and the port....

i thought that was the end of alcohol for the day... the bus brought us to another winery, the McGuigan.... where we porceed to have MORE wine tasting.... the gold medal winning dessert wine is nice, but again don;'t ask me the name.... i think we had at least another 6 kinds, which i decide that to survive the trip i shouldn't drink all, cos i seriously don't want to drunk at wine tasting, so i took a sip and pass the rest to my friends, except the adward winning german white and the dessert wine.

then we hopped on to the bus and arrive at another location for some free time and my friend decide to taste more wine, and we went on to taste another 4...

the wine here is really cheap, and the winery is really interesting, maybe i should go further my studies and become a wine maker.

Stuff i bought:

the jungle juice
the McWilliam dessert wine
the McGuigan desset wine
a champange --> reserved =)

now my only problem is how do i get all the stuff home?!!!!

Sydney Fish Market

since ah ci ask about my weekend trip.... i shall post some pictures of last weekend where i had gone to sydney fish market... yum yum...






of course i did not spend my whole weekend in the fish market.... i went to casino to where i was given 10 dollar free credit and won about 1 dollar in the end haha... but that one got no pictures cos cameras are not allowed and i think i look under age cos the sercurity gaurd actualy check my passport before there let me in.... hmmm.... other than that i also did some shopping cos that is the only time that shops will be open when i am actually free. got 2 jackets at a good bargain. =)

Unsucessful Attempt

attempted to run on saturday morning 19th August 2006. attempt failed. we got side tracked first by a huge toy shop then by university of sydney. yup, so that it. no further attempts to excersise since i got here and am just getting fatter and fatter with all the food i am eating. i think some divine help might be needed. haha. (and no mona, i am not going to take part in some marathon in sydney, or any running events)

since my camera is still spoilt, most of the pictures taken is with other people, but i will post up some of what i have. haha. of food mainly.



this is a typical breakfast that we eat every morning, the options consist of juicy mushrooms, scrambled eggs, grilled tomatos, sausages, bacons and toasts among other stuff...


This ice- cream is know as gelatissumo... not sure if i spell it correctly. the flavours here consist of mixed berries, strawberry and mango... it is really good, and i going to explore more flavours.
yup... that all the pictures i have of food at the current moment.... there is more food that there is to be seen......

Picnic By the Lake

Yeah! finally managed to post one picture! no, my camera is still not working, this photo is taken by one of my friend. =) thanks goodness there are like other cameras around. for lunch today we decided that we should have a picnic at the lake opposite our company. so we da bao our food, which is actually not very nice, from the company cafeteria and walk across to the lake for lunch. the view make up for the not so fantasic food and we have seagulls and other assorted birds joining us for lunch. =) we took quite a few pictures, but becos i am using dial up now, it take ages to upload 1 picture, so only got 1 picture. (obviously)

Yup, then for dinner, we went to town hall area for authenic korean food. the kim chi is damn nice. i think i am gaining weight like nobody business... haha but who cares...

yeah tomolo shops opening later, and can walk around somemore. if can will try to upload more pictures in the office. =)

3 1/2 movies and 1 Baileys

hey greetings from sydney! After 3 and 1/2 movies later and 1 baileys i finally arrived at sydney. Singapore Airlines is great way to fly. soon after we board the plane (which is packed fully) we were offered warm towels before the plane actually take off. Then, soon after we took off we were given our headset, i plunge into my first movie (no, no super mario for me this time). there is like 80 movies to choose from ( where do i have to fly to finish watching everything, that is if my eyes didn't pop out...). being a animation freak, i went for "over the hedge". Then, we had breakfast onboard.... there is like bread, butter, jam, tea and juice... which i dutifully finish. ( i hate to waste food). then i went into the second movie, "take the lead", not bad quite nice... then i decided that just watching movie is not enough, thats when the baileys comes in... ( dun worry i got self- control and dun intend to get drunk on a plane). Then it is the third movie "ice-age: the meltdown" (yup, i know another animation), then it is lunch, the food is nice, we have lamb curry with potato salad and bread, but i must say that the dessert is the best, triple chocolate ice- cream. yum yum. movie plus ice- cream what can you ask for. haha. then i finally decided to watch a german movie" fisherman and his wife" which i didn't manage to finish cos i landed in sydney already. argh... i want to know the ending... this is one time i hope that the flight could be abit longer. haha.

okay if you are wondering why there is no picture. this is because my camera gives up on me and i haven't even talk a single picture yet. ARGH. CMI.

Flying off again

i am flying off again to sydney... for work... will be back in sept.. hopefully... not sure yet also... but i am living life on the edge... my bags not packed.. as usual... living life on the edge and got tonnes of stuff haven't buy and settle yet... got this unpleasent feeling that i might fall off the edge haha...

ps.~ to everyone that come down yesterday. thanks. to cheez, wendy, mona, ping- sao and vic... yup i will definately bring the food over... including the hello kitty fried rice. =)

Good fight TeamNUS. for the gals, it had been an amazing juorney, and thanks for the grand finale. i know you all will come back stronger next year. i have confidence in you all. =) Thanks to everyone that had been part of my dragonboat career up to now. thanks, really. To Sir, thanks, you had been one of the best coach i ever had.=)

As for the race, i would not say anything more, as you many others have already blog about the race and the results already. (i am lazy, i admit. refer to other people blogs.) and most importantly, the results doesn't matters, and it would not changed or erased what was felt. For those who think that we have lost, you are wrong. we have won, only we can understand why because you cannot see past the medals we have got, but we have. to these people, all i have to say i feel sad for for you, but too bad. haha.

My Life?

i have no life. that's it. period.

So much of goverment policy of having a five- days week to spend more quality time with family.bleach!
