Second Resolution of 2008

Last Thursday attended one of my company grand dinner.Last year we held it at Mandarin Oriental and this time it was in Shang-ri La,Kuala Lumpur.At first was thinking to grab my old dresses and just putting on some light make up & hairdo but since my gal colleagues proposed to have a makeup+hairdo package which sums up to RM100 only(cheap as in KL rate),so let's do it!

I'm always happie for company dinner cos we get to work half day officially den time to rush over to da saloon to get ourselves done.Surprisingly,I thought I look normal but from the reaction when people look at me,I knew I looked very different.Imagine even my colleagues couldnt recognize me when they first saw me!(Okie,dont know whether it's a good or a bad sign,however I take da good one of cos8haha*).Took a lot of pictures on da day since it's a different Sam so here's one that I took it myself*cheers!*Dont doubt,it's me =P

I guess this would be my last company dinner with HP.I went for my first interview of da year on Saturday and unexpectedly the managing director offered me da job package on da spot.He was like 'wait-no-more' and then I showed my interest & told him that I'll confirm da next week.After some thoughts,I decided to hand in my resignation letter & as a norm,my boss and colleagues were 'shock'.I knew that this decision was a BIG one.I felt undecided whether to leave my comfy zone(flexible environment,great colleagues & boss but with a dead salary & position) or to start with a fresh zone(totally diff environment,idealess about my new colleagues & boss but with a good package & position).So after all da mind battles,I decided to change & have a fresh start*Crossing my fingers*

My dear got her first interview on last Friday,it started well(though she was so anxious days before da interview and it went on smoothly.Oh yeah by da way,it was reallie a 'memorable' moment to shop for her first working clothes*haha*She didnt wanted to look too girly so we went for a stripe shirt with black pants and we had lots of hassle buying da shoes.No heels,no pumps and must be a wrap shoes but finally thanks to Bata,we found da right one.Da lady partner of da legal firm hired her on da day itself!Good pay as we compare to others and since it's her first job,good try =)

Well,it seems like I got my first resolution done!Bravo and congrats to both of us.

Now up coming next is my second resolution of da year: Getting a new car!

My new job do requires me to travel around so having a car is neccessary & finally.So am I getting a Honda City?Answer is nope.Disappointed?Well a little yes but after da realistic mind speaks and da financial calculation done,I was confirmed I wasnt ready to get my dream car yet.However,I think it's ok for me to start with a economical car and if I work perfectly fine for my new job,Honda City is still on track,so why bothers?I should be feeling lucky that I could afford a car all by myself.It's all efforts of my day*wink*

Next update would be my dear's first working day and Chinese New Year on day way*tung tung chiang*
