- Grandma is recovering well at a Rehab Home, and seems to have gained her energy back. Visiting her is more difficult than when she was in SGH, cuz its at Simei.. However, with her progression, she should be able to come home soon.
- Initially was in the midst of preparation of hiring a foreign domestic maid for grandma, and realised how mafan the paperwork is!By twist of fate, while doing the online certification course required to be completed by the employer, I discovered that this maid agency that was recommended and used by hubby's grandma is not ACCREDITED and has a low RETENTION SUCCESS RATE and low EMPLOYMENT VOLUME (refer to MOM website). She is also using her brother's shop at Lucky Plaza as her office registered address lor, cuz she is working from home, and is also doin P/t counseling work. "Fortunately" the maid whom we have chosen, changed her mind and decided not to come to SG, then I can use this right opportunity to "reject" using this maid agency service. *Phew*
- Since grandma is recovering well, mum decided to monitor her situation w/o employing a maid first. Shall pray for her health and hope everything will be back to normal soon...
Work:
- My direct supervisor-cum-boss had a discussion talk with me on Thursday, about my Learning & Development plans, initiated by our big boss (Reg. Head of Legal). As per my direct supervisor's observation, they have decided to train me as a Paralegal, and enrol me in relevant courses to attain that. So, I will have a chance to move up from an Administrator to another professional platform. I am thrilled to hear that! I am thrilled that I am being recognized for my work and efforts, and I am thrilled that I enjoy my daily work and I find a sense of achievement. I am thrilled that the company is making plans for me and I am able to see "light" in front of my tunnel of career path! Although there will be some diversion away from my initial direction towards Corporate Secretariat, but its ok! Cuz the portion of Corporate Secretariat work in my company is not much, and strictly speaking, its a very dry course.. wahaha... But at the very least, I still have some basic foundation from my course and work experience in previous job la. Anyway, its good news for me!
- Juz had my first fire drill evacuation exercise on Friday. Being Kiasu and Kiasee, me and my direct supervisor chiong down to the ground floor, by lift, 1 hour before the fire drill exercise time! Wahaha... We juz CAN'T walk down 46 stories of stairs lah.. please...
Miscellaneous:
- Finally, after so so so long, when all of my friends are already in the network, I've finally joined Facebook! Hahaha... I thought Facebook looks so complicated and not-easy-to use, so I kept rejecting the idea and various invitations.. Finally, after friends have commented that "I muz catch up with the times!", I decided to open an account and alas! I found it quite easy to use leh.. wahaha.. So the moral of the story is - If you do not try, you will never know, right?

- I should have added most of the friends I know. But if I have not added you, please pm me your Facebook account la.
