Business Trip

I've been away for business trip last week. It was hectic and tiring but it was a good experienced too. The business trip was in our neighbour country..












I've attended FHA 2008 - Food & Hotel Asia Event 2008 that was held in Singapore every 2 years. This year it was held in Singapore EXPO, with seven damn big halls.




Food & Hotel Asia Event 2008










Singapore EXPO







At first, we wanted to stay in our sister hotel in Singapore but due to high occupancy, they can't reserved the rooms for us. Because of that, we checked in to another sister hotel in JB and was upgraded to Regency Club with the RC facilities. Not bad huh?




Hyatt Regency Johor Bahru










View from Regency Club Lounge









I can see Singapore from my room






We need to have a pass to enter into all the seven halls. Those who don't have the pass needs to pay SGD 80 which is equal to around RM 184. Damn expensive.





Lucky I got the free pass :)







There were a lots of stuff there and the exhibitors were from all over the world. They gave a lots of free stuff and sample including free testing of wine and spirits.













I went there with another 4 of my collegues (all big fellows, I mean big as in position) and also met old friends.





Our 1st day in FHA2008










With Friends







Since we were staying in JB, we had to go in to Singapore everyday and it was very early in the morning and came back after our dinner. We only reached hotel around 11pm due to very bad traffic from Woodlands to Tambak Johor and we stucked almost one and a half hour there. But, it was really worth it especially when we met friends from the sister hotel. We had our dinner in Straits Kitchen at Grand Hyatt Singapore that already arranged earlier by nice, sweet, and joker Mike. After dinner, he asked us to go up to Mezza9 to have our desserts there. It was good, I mean really good to meet him again after so long and he always the same Mike that I know.





Us in the lobby after our dinner followed by desserts. (Mahen, Raj, Mike & Me)







I passed Aussie's booth and they asked me to fill up their survey and test their product, jam. By the time I finished it, they gave me this so cute t-shirt and I have to admit that I love sexy aubergine!













I also in love with this chocolate that was given from Singapore Directory!












I left Singapore EXPO with a very good experience, and it was really worth it to be there. The next will be in Hong Kong, May 2009. Hope I'll be able to attend another mega Food & Hotel Event.












Good bye FHA 2008, see you in 2010 :)

It's A Boring Monday

Been busy the whole last week. A lot of things need to be done. Thank God, finally I managed to settle up everything before the datelines. I had a very bad mood since some peoples gave me shit, and it was like, hey what the hell were you thinking you are. Yes, you are department head level, but it doesn't mean that you can say or do whatever you want to do! And for your info, I'm not reporting to you! Full stop. Besides, I don't like people used me for an excuse. I know whats right and wrong, so you better stop bitching about me.
I've spent my weekend at my second home watching back to back Prison Break and Lost. We talked about something when he suddenly said "no wonder your mood so fucked up last week". Ermm he was right, being a Cancerian it obviously showed in my face but its ok, its normal what. Ahaks. Even though we just sat in front of tv watching those series and drinking and eating, I just love my weekend. That is why I think today is a boring day plus starting tomorrow I'll be away and only come back to work next Monday.
No, I'm not going for holiday or short break or get away thingy, I'm going for a business trip. I can feel it will be tiring and no time for my shopping. I wish at least I can manage to squeeze my time for Charles & Keith. Wish me luck!

The Day It's Too Late

I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearing what you say
But I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around and say..

That it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I'd take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
(But that's nothing new)
Yeah yeah

I loved you with a fire red, now it's turning blue
And you say
Sorry like an angel, heavens not the thing for you,
But I'm afraid

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologizes, it's too late
Woahooo woah

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, a yeah

I'm holding your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground...

No Words Can Describe The Weather

Its damn HOT here since a week ago. And it is getting worst day by day. I don't feel like going anywhere. All I want is just sitting here, and do nothing except take a deep breath. Even the air-cond is on, I don't really feel it. Based on the forecast, it will continue for a few weeks more. Can't wait for this weather to finish, and I can enjoy my sitting by the beach session after work.

The Day I Don't Want To Talk To Anybody

Sometimes, I don't understand some peoples. I thought I know them, but somehow they became totally different, they acted like strangers to me, they acted as if we didn't know each other, and the worst part is when they showed that we are not belong to each other. Why they changed? I understand that people might change, but not until to this extend right. I'm still remember those times when we had so much fun together; we lepak, watched movies, party, drinking, holiday, laughed, talked until we fall asleep, we shared everything ups and downs but now all those fun had gone. I maybe too emotional about this, but don't be too ignorance towards me.
I'm so pissed off!
