just finishing reading a story to regan. that's what i try to do every night before he sleeps. a story. been reading classics like 3 little pigs, jack and the beanstalk etc etc as i suppose that's part of a childhood. so as a mom, i must ensure he got childhood right? i mean and i'm sure everyone knows the stories on the above mentioned mah correct not? got people don't know one meh? i think if don't know really got serious problems already!

thus i must inculcate those must-know-s classic tales to regan lor. very bad mummy liao. if people laugh at him because he don't know next time i become the worst mummy. worst is worse than bad ok.

i'm so happy that i'm working so near office now. just a 20 minutes bus ride away. its been so long since i work so near. the last one was 2 years back and it was at dbs bukit batok. i guess being the largest bank in singapore with such a big network they can put you at a branch near your house. =)

but i do have colleagues not as lucky as me too. like one stays at bedok work at thomson branch, another stays at tiong bahru works at parkway parade. but then again, thomson branch and parkway parade branch is not near anyone la. haha...

work is getting better. i guess it can't get any worse from my last entry because it was already at its most jia lat situation lor. my only grouse is i don't have a proper table. i'm going to type a letter to ministry of manpower to complain lor. we got RIGHTS one ok! there is a standard guidelines given by mom on the minimum workspace for each employee lor!

i'm so deprive. can you imagine my laptop is place on a shelf and i've have to sit sideways to do my work. wa lau! how to work you tell me? hopefully as promised by my boss, she will arrange a table for me soon as she do have empty unoccupied table lor, just that its somewhere else and she wants the centre to sit together according to the group function like there's the service team and sales team.

thus, another guy whom is not really from our centre (doing mortgages) would be moved to sit elsewhere and i can sit at his desk. please please please, let it be faster, earlier and quicker. if not you see me walking sideways next time liao!

i'm under the service team by the way. i hate doing sales. or rather banking products sales. though i should think its rather lucrative but its just not me trying to hardsell or product push something to someone whom don't need it.

but think again, actually, when i go shopping buy clothes, i also get upsell like crazy and i fall for it myself. and for us bankers, we are actually trying to get customers to invest and grow their retirement funds. we are not, in fact, asking them to spend their money lor. hmmm, i suddenly got new insights while blogging. haha... like a angel and devil inside me debating.

i think i too long never blog suddenly got so much to yak about. =P

i really want to blog one lor. like last night i spend like 1 whole hour doing the "7 things" questionaire but i gave up. kaos, i can only think of maximum 4 things to write per topic lor. think my life is not so exicting like others can write so many things can. *boo*

anyways, yup, its still under 'draft' status. got time then i brainstorm properly then post it up ok. in the meantime it shall stay there for awhile which honestly is an eyesore seeing that post in green. i hate pending things actually. i'm very prompt in my work or personal life one. albeit i'm always late for appointments but thats a different la hor. punctuality and efficiency are 2 separate matters right not? heh...

oh ya, backtrack a little to the fairy tales part, i think hor, all the fairy tales like so cruel one. why must there be death? its a children BOOK leh! like jack and the beanstalk, the giant eat children, fell to his death and jack's mother even said "well done jack!" or snow white right, the version i borrowed from the library was so gross i read 3 pages and stopped "the stepmother salted and ate the liver and heart thinking it belonged to snow white." *pukes*

sometimes i got to change the story a little to make it less gruesome or cruel or evil or petty lor. i mean jack can forgive the giant what. so sometimes i will change and say "jack chopped down the beanstalk and the giant fell to the ground cutting his leg. jack immediately send the giant to the hospital and they became friends happily ever after." see, so much nicer right not?

i mean we are suppose to teach children good morals like forgive and forget, treat evil with kindness and stuffs ma. else later grow up selfish, mean and evil how?

read somewhere that its been documented that actually grimm brothers stories were meant for adults than children when it was first written long long ago lor. hmmm, wonder why become children books hor?
