A Modern Baby Full Month Offering~
Filed Under funny, colleague | 12 Comments
My colleague just gave birth to a baby boy last couple of months. It is the very first baby in our department and we are rather excited! 
So, after 2 months of maternity leave, she is finally back to the office, much slimmer and looks radiance!
Well, as the Chinese traditional goes, when the baby is 1 month old (baby full month), the parents would give away hard-boiled-‘red eggs’ to family, relatives and friends. Sometimes they give cakes or various local kuih. It is to welcome the new bundle of joy and the eggs symbolize fertility. The red colour bring good luck to the child, as red is the auspicious color to the Chinese.
Since my colleague gave birth in Penang, she wasn’t here when the baby celebrates full month. Guess what she gave for us as the ‘red eggs’ offering when she is back to office?
Nope, it is NOT red egg, not kuih, not even Ayam Mas or fried noodles (as both Yit and Sean guessed).
Guess again?!?

It is a KFC Voucher for snack plate and a drink!!! 
It is certainly something very special and new to me. Come to think of it, it makes sense as it is much more convenient, durable (can be keep till next year, unlike food which has to be consumed in a short period of time), easy to distribute and simple, not much hassle of preparation!

What should I do to marry a rich guy?
Filed Under funny, life | 10 Comments
A buddy of mine sent me this and I find it really hilarious and he got a point! So I am sharing this out..
This article is extracted from a forum. A young and pretty lady posted this on a popular forum:
Title: What should I do to marry a rich guy?
I’m going to be honest of what I’m going to say here. I’m 25 this year. I’m very pretty, have style and good taste. I wish to marry a guy with $500k annual salary or above. You might say that I’m greedy, but an annual salary of $1M is considered only as middle class in New York . My requirement is not high. Is there anyone in this forum who has an income of $500k annual salary? Are you all married? I wanted to ask: what should I do to marry rich persons like you? Among those I’ve dated, the richest is $250k annual income, and it seems that this is my upper limit. If someone is going to move into high cost residential area on the west of New York City Garden, $250k annual income is not enough.
I’m here humbly to ask a few questions:
1) Where do most rich bachelors hang out? (Please list down the names and addresses of bars, restaurant, gym)
2) Which age group should I target?
3) Why most wives of the riches is only average-looking? I’ve met a few girls who doesn’t have looks and are not interesting, but they are able to marry rich guys.
4) How do you decide who can be your wife, and who can only be your girlfriend? (my target now is to get married)
Ms. Pretty
Here’s a reply from a Wall Street Financial guy:
Dear Ms. Pretty,
I have read your post with great interest. Guess there are lots of girls out there who have similar questions like yours. Please allow me to analyze your situation as a professional investor. My annual income is more than $500k, which meets your requirement, so I hope everyone believes that I’m not wasting time here.
From the standpoint of a business person, it is a bad decision to marry you. The answer is very simple, so let me explain. Put the details aside, what you’re trying to do is an exchange of “beauty” and “mboney”: Person A provides beauty, and Person B pays for it, fair and square. However, there’s a deadly problem here, your beauty will fade, but my money will not be gone without any good reason. The fact is, my income might increase from year to year, but you can’t be prettier year after year. Hence from the viewpoint of economics, I am an appreciation asset, and you are a depreciation asset. It’s not just normal depreciation, but exponential depreciation. If that is your only asset, your value will be much worried 10 years later.
By the terms we use in Wall Street, every trading has a position, dating with you is also a “trading position”. If the trade value dropped we will sell it and it is not a good idea to keep it for long term – same goes with the marriage that you wanted. It might be cruel to say this, but in orderto make a wiser decision any assets with great depreciation value will be sold or “leased”. Anyone with over $500k annual income is not a fool; we would only date you, but will not marry you. I would advice that you forget looking for any clues to marry a rich guy. And by the way, you could make yourself to become a rich person with $500k annual income. This has better chance than finding a rich fool.
Hope this reply helps. If you are interested in “leasing” services, do contact me.
Signed, J.P. Morgan

He deserved it!
Filed Under train, funny, life | 10 Comments
As usual on Friday, we, the employees, declared long lunches. It is almost a tradition to go somewhere far for lunch by taking the Putra LRT train. So 2 of my colleagues and I decided to hop to KL Central to meet a beloved ex-colleague for lunchie!
In the not-so-packed-but-all-seats-were-taken-train, we stood in the middle, chatting happily. The train stopped at Pasar Seni and a couple of a very old man & lady got into the train. There were 3 seats, one was empty. So the very old lady, sat at the empty seat gratefully. The old man was standing there, hovering around the seat!
The other two seats were taken by a young Chinese lady and a young Malay guy. Both of them saw the old couples but none was budging from their seat!
We were standing nearby and upon seeing their non-reaction, I told my colleague in a rather loud whisper in Chinese, “The man is so old but no one is offering their seat”. My colleague nodded and agreed with me. Then I said, “Now we speak in Malay” (so that the malay guy can understand what we said)!
I guess the Chinese lady heard me and she got up to let the old man sit. But perhaps the old man was losing his patient, ticked off the malay guy. “Ini kerusi bagi orang tua duduk punya (The seat is for old people)” and repeated a few times and pointed to the notice sign that says the seats are for old people and pregnant ladies, while looking at the sheepishly-looking-malay-guy! But the thing was he didn’t even get up and offer his seat!
The old lady then asked the old man to take the young lady seat. Three of us couldn’t help laughing and thank God, our stop was just another station away! And we got down, happy that the young chap got ticked off!
This is definitely not the first time I saw young, healthy people being so selfish they do not offer the seats to those who needs it more! But sometimes, I would be in dilemma whether to offer people my seat. Reason?!? Certainly not because I am selfish. =P
Sometimes I saw lady with a little bulging tummy which I really couldn’t decide whether she is pregnant or not! She could be pregnant for 2 or 3 months OR perhaps she just had a full lunch or maybe need a little exercise. So, a lady (ehem, that’s me) offering another lady a seat when she’s not pregnant will be rather insulting, well, at least to me (it’s like you are so fat that you look pregnant)! No?!?

Food temptation to the pets!
Filed Under funny, entertainment | Leave a Comment
This is damn funny video clips. If you have pets you can try to train them not to be tempted when they’re surrounded by foods!!! I have tried with my dog and she could understand when I said “don’t eat it”. I’ll put a piece of food in front of her nose, let her smell it and then put in front of her and warn her not to eat it. She’ll understand and look elsewhere, trying to distract herself of the temptation in front of her!!!
I think she’s quite smart and she’ll only eat it when instructed. Unless I left her with the food and go away for too long, I think she might eat it!
See the monkey in the clip too, so cute!
