Jo cut his finger

Jo cut his finger yesterday while opening durian. At first, he thought it was only a small cut but it wasn’t. His finger was bleeding like hell, and both of us got a shock for few seconds before knowing what to do. Finally, his finger stopped bleeding… and he was eating the durian that caused his injury!

With this cut, he cannot wash his hair. So, I am now his personal shampoo girl. Well, I think women really have to take up different role at different time. Women… can be a cook, nanny, maid, hair stylist, personnal assistant… etc. Women can be anyone, whenever and wherever!

New jersey for The Kop

The new season EPL is coming! Liverpool FC 2008 - 2009 Home jersey is now available!

This new Home jersey for The Reds is 100% polyster with ClimaCool® technology. As usual, Adidas symbolic three strips are screened on the shoulder to sleeves area, and Adidas logo is embroidered on center chest. Carlsberg logo is screened below the Adidas logo. Liverpool official crest is embroidered on left chest.

This new jersey for The Reds has added some features which cannot be found in previous season. There is mesh print panel at each side of the jersey.

Turn to the outside back of the jersey, a gold Liver Bird is embroidered on back neck area. A red and white checkerboard pattern is on the inside back of the jersey. Further to note that, this is the first time 'This is Anfield' printed on the jersey.

Jo bought me and himself this brand new Liverpool Home jersey. Unfortunately, he couldn't find me the Ladies jersey. So he bought me the Kids jersey!!! Look at the difference between his jersey (for Men) and mine (for Kids), it's very funny! But, i appreciate that!

I'll be wearing it for any Liverpool matches, and hopefully we can wear it in Anfield! Yeah~

You'll never walk alone!

Today is our last day with Gtalk

Today is our last day with gtalk! So sad!!!

Look at the custom messages shown in my gtalk contact list, everybody is talking about it:
"Gtalk for the last day today, I will pretend I have not found out how to block"
"http://www.uselessnhopeless.be/"
"pain"
"Gtalk will be blocked from today onwards. Be prepared."
"Why not block the phone? We can chat with outsider using phone as well..."
"last day....................."
""
And my custom message is "Today is the last day for GTALK! Let's say bye bye to GTALK!!"

Since we have gtalk commonly used in our company, I found the communication channel between departments and colleagues better. Our legal council uses gtalk to request for documents while she is having meeting, instead of interrupting the meeting to make phone calls. Working groups use gtalk to discuss work progress, instead of putting aside all work to meet up for discussion. We use gtalk to clarify doubts with colleagues, instead of making phone calls or writing emails. And, we use gtalk to get closer with colleagues who are not stationed in a same building. Gtalk eliminates communication gaps, creates us a better communication channel and harmonious working environment, improves our multi-tasking ability, promotes cost cutting and better time management! All these make us more efficient and effective in work! Oh... Gtalk, the wonder!

Nevertheless, Mr V (IT Head) said "IM will bring virus to the server. It is not good for the company. So, we have no choice but to block it."

I'm not into IT and I have little knowledge about how anti-virus system works. Please forgive me if my following thinking looks stupid: I thought it is Mr V's responsibility to improve our anti-virus system? Or, anti-virus system has already been improved but not good enough? It seems to me that anti-virus system is not improved, but IM that causes it looks bad is blocked. Emails bring virus to server, should we block? Internet brings virus to server, should we block?

It is a fact that Gtalk will not be available from tomorrow onwards. But, don't worry! We will find some other stuffs to replace it. We will find our next wonder......

Contact lens

I chosed to wear contact lens in 2003, a week before my trip to Korea. The reason was: I didn’t want to wear my old fashion glasses in front of those handsome Korean. My glasses was really old fashion, my friend said it should belongs to Master Q (Lao Fu Zi 老夫子).

It was a wrong decision! It was winter and I couldn’t get use of wearing contact lens. My eyes became very dry in winter, and it got worst with contact lens. I ended up wearing my old fashion glasses instead. I gave up wearing contact lens after my Korea trip.

The next time I decided to wear contact lens was in 2007. The reason was: I saw a pair of sun glasses I liked very much, but it didn’t come with power. My sister bought me the sun glasses for my birthday, and I bought myself 6 pairs of contact lens for ‘practise’.

There was once I dropped my left-eye contact lens while walking towards a restaurant. Another time, I dropped my right-eye contact lens while drinking guava juice, and the lens fall into my guava juice. Sometimes, I forgot to take out my contact lens before sleep. I was so surprise because my vision was so clear when I woke up. Later only I realised that I was wearing it to bed. Last night, I found my right-eye contact lens crack when I took it out. Till today, I’ve either dropped or cracked 3 left-eye contact lens with 1.75 power, and 6 right-eye contact lens with 1.50 power. And I foresee it will be more in the future...

Still, I will wear contact lens... ;p

All of us look the same today

My company just implemented uniform system which requires all of us wearing uniform to work. Our uniform is mainly blue, dark blue at the shoulder area and lighter blue for the remaining area. Company logo is printed on left chest area, and name of our power plant is printed below the logo.

Today was the first day everybody wearing uniform to work. Some said we look like police, some said we look like the personnel at KTM ticket counter, some said we look like cadet. I think we look like factory worker. Anyway, uniform is a style of dress to be worn by everybody in a company. Uniform system is implemented to create spirit, sense of belongings and motivate everybody in a company. It doesn't matter what we look like, but how we look, and should ALL look the same! That is the purpose of having uniform, to unify all of us, at least from the appearance.

Frankly speaking, disregard of the material and quality, i think our uniform looks ok! But, for a change, I will suggest our uniform to be mainly white next year. I will suggest blue for shoulder area and white for remaining area. That time, maybe we all look like a navy...

The Number 10

Number 10 was given by my husband, Jo, who is a die hard Liverpool fan. I'm not into football, I could not understand why not Number 1 but Number 10.

In our wedding website he wrote:
Everybody who is into football knows that player who wears jersey No.10 is among the most influential player in the team if not the most. I’m going to hand her the No.10 jersey because from now on she is the most influential person in my life.

This was when I became his Number 10, the most influential woman in his life.

I wonder what a woman can do to become influential to her man. Some people told me that it is some kind of natural power in the hand of a woman that makes the statement valid. If the so-called natural power is really existing, I believe it will not last forever. A good woman should know how to turn it into respects and trusts. It is an art!

It is now 1 month and 4 days since our wedding. Let's see what will happen in 1 year time...
