It's coming

Pejam celik pejam celik, a quarter of 2016 will be ending soon. How time flies. Have you started to work towards your new year resolution yet? Hah.

Today was my niece's 10th birthday! Happy birthday le niece! And whenever this happens, i'll feel old cos that means my birthday is coming pretty soon too! And oh god, it's my big 3 this year! :O

Anyway, was out shopping for her birthday present the other day at Smiggle @Jem. I have to say, the customer service at this outlet is pretty impressive. Having been at the store for quite some time while thinking what to buy, one of the staff approached me and explain to me some of the items they have there. I then asked if they have this particular item which I found was not on display in the store. She made a check inside and tadaaa came back with the exact item, saying it's the last piece that they have. And that's not all. At the cashier, when I was paying for the item and wrapping paper, the same staff offered me to wrap the item at the back of the store, even though they normally don't provide such service! Wow, this is what I called going the extra mile. Sadly, forgotten to take down her name (partly cos scared she thought I wanna get to know her pulak! Haha) so that I can compliment her formally. Anyway, thumbs up to the service staff at Smiggle@Jem!

Went to my NS friend's wedding yesterday at the grassroots club at YCK. For a Malay wedding, it was quite grand I must say. Quite a large variety of food (including churros!). And of course, wedding is also a good place for me to cuci mata. Probably I should strive to go for all the wedding invites I receive. Who knows, my other half is destined to be amongst those attendees? Haha!

After feasting at the wedding, made my way to Northpoint to celebrate the advance birthday of my niece. How? The way my family knows best... eating! Haha. Have lost a lot of weight since I'm posted to this new place, so not a bad way to gain back some right? Just hope the fats don't just go to my tummy cos that's one place I don't need it to get bigger than it already is. Zzzz

Took couple of days leave during the long weekend just to have some rest and planning the dates to take leave for my next vacation. But to know the number of days to take leave, you need to know where you're going. And now, I still don't have a clue to my destination. Any ideas? Probably I should start making a list of my possible destinations and strike them off once I visited the place. But then, with the current security climate, there are probably some places which I should probably not go for the time being. Esp if I were to travel solo. Hmm..

Was looking back at some of my old chats (yes, sentimental as always.. Haha), and it's interesting to see how promises can easily be forgotten. If words can be forgotten, promises can be broken, then what's the use of making them in the first place? It does make me realise, no matter how close you are to the person right now, you will almost definitely drift apart after some time. Unless, you make an effort to stay in contact with each other. Sadly, such cases are few and far between.
