my November is AWESOME!

Seriously, this November has been the MOST productive,tiring yet interesting month for the past 22 years in my life.why did i say so? just read!

went to Hatyai for the second time this year!  at first i thought we couldnt make it since Bangkok was flooded. luckily Hatyai didnt but it rained every day. This was actually the first time i met raining season at Thailand in spite of my many visits to Hatyai. The rain kind of ruined our plan because every outdoor touring had to be postponed/ cancelled. But we still managed to visit most of the famous temple with very sunny weather! this time i went with family, Bii and my best friend cheng cheng. More people so that means i can have MORE food!

.

Sis did more survey on some restaurants we never been before. and yes, they were all so scrumptious we couldnt stop eating. Especially the stewed pork knuckle! the meat was too tender and it almost melted in your mouth. oh nomm nomm, you can never had any better one else where! dont mention about tomyam, it’s really a must-eat in Thailand! i just love all their food!  Bii and I even bought 3 samurai burgers and finished them during the journey back. next time i must try a newly opened japanese buffet ! didnt have the chance to try it because we had to wait for at least 2 hours for the queue =(

.

needless to say, bought so much too. LOL. the idea market is back to the town btw! Cheng and I gone all crazy over the cute little things all handmade by the local people. the two hairbands are my best buy i would say. sooo girlish for the flower one and i already had some picture in my mind on how to wear it out. hopefully it turns into the way i want it to be. bought so many chiffon blouses too! some can be wore to work and some for casual wear. refilled my Essential shampoo and hairmask too! this time i changed to the orange  coloured range to test is there any improvement on my frizzy hair >.<

After i came back from thailand, my company had this Impact Day on 9th Nov.This year, the theme for Impact Day was Love the Environment and the activities that we carried out have to bring an impact to the society. at last we suggested to clean up our Office and to throw away all the audit files which were like 10 years ago! imagine we had to clean 10 years of waste paper!!

.

so you thought only 1 lorry can stuff all of our audit papers? HELL NO! we used 3 of these lorries and 1 double the size one to get rid of the papers! imagine that we had to carry all the papers from third floor to ground floor~ it took us almost 2 hours just to move all the papers down with the help of 40+ people. At last we managed to sell them off for RM1K++ which we donated to Bangkok flood victim. we managed to clean up our office at the same time helping people in Bangkok! one stone that kills two birds, only that we all had muscle ache the next day =.=

And the most interesting part of November would be some secondment to JB! stayed there for 2 weeks, 1 week at the hotel and another week at the rented condo. after the secondment i gained a new name from my colleagues, which is “humanoid GPS”. because i remember many roads in JB just after a few times of driving. even though working outstation is much more stressful, we could gain more experience and meeting new people with different culture. At least i made some friends from JB Deloitte!

.

there were actually a total of 9 people going to JB. but because of different client ,we all worked separately and hardly met some others. one thing good about secondment is that the friendship among colleagues improved much much more because you sticked with each other almsot 24/7. you tend to understand each other more and a good opportunity to build up teamwork. =D

.

and i met a lot of devils who shared the same interest with me in eating pork intestine and knuckle ! almost every day we had it at different stall! and i started to love “mihun guei” because Johor has really tasty and many variety of mihun guei! so far i tried  the spinach , pumpkin and sweet potato flavour of mihun guei and the spinach one was the yummiest. i had it 3 times during my stay in Johor. OMG now i really dare not to weigh myself already.

Since Johor is SOOO near to Singapore, and 22th Nov was Johor’s  public holiday, we went Singapore!!! initially we didnt intend to drive over because we didnt know the road. but then in a very blur condition, we drove to Singapore custom! =.=  the officer told us we could U-turn but we still had to buy the Autopass for SGD10. we thought that since we had to pay for it, might as well we drove over la~ what for wasting the SGD10 just to U-turn and we only had 1 day over there, we wouldnt want to waste the time waiting for bus and all that. so, yeah…. 6 of us, with none of us knowing the road, driving around Singapore and miraculously we reached Bugis!

.

Things are really cheap there if you are earning SGD. It’s around SGD10-25 for clothings!  for SGD25, you can actually get a very nice quality of dress already. Didnt really buy much because i was busy controlling Michelle in her spending xD she would easily gone crazy and spend non-stop so we had to be responsible in  stopping her from impulse buying. I actually kept her wallet and she had to ask for the permission to buy everything she wanted. hiak hiak hiak! i can say that i successfully minimize her spending =p

.

BUT, the best part in Singapore would be the Korean BBQ buffet we had!! SGD28+ per person and it definitely worth it! the restaurant was still full house in spite of the fact that it’s tuesday! not even on weekend. but then you cannot deny that the marinated meat was aweeeeeesomeeeeeeee~~~~ look at the mussels that we had (for 3 rounds!) i am kind of missing it already =((((

.

.

SOOOO! dont you think my November is the best one! i get to go to Thailand, Johor and Singapore in just 1 month time! tried so many delicacies of the 3 places and meeting different kind of people. i wouldnt mind my life to be like this more provided that i could have enough time to study!!! exam in just 2 weeks time!!! RAWR!!!
