Crocs Buddies!

"Teacher Jessy, you're wearing crocs!" cried Haziq. "I have one too. Dark blue colour. Afiq has a red one," he continued. Haziq also told me that his mum, dad, sister and aunt (Afiq's mum) have crocs too. Wow, I actually have buddies! That was so cool. I told him to wear it to school so I can snap it and post at our blog.

Last Friday, both Haziq and Afiq wore their crocs, happily running around and expecting me to wear mine but I forgotten all about it. Poor them! I apologized to them and told them to wear it again on Monday. Of course, physco them a little that crocs are comfy and does not need any tying or buckling. In a way, it is true ok? *winks* Anymore crocs buddy out there? Nicki? Mui Mui Lainey?

Present to you the crocs-community at Krista (BMC) Kindergarten...

Aren't we cute with those crocs? Snap!

L-R : Afiq, Me, Haziq

This is wear they keep their crocs in the
'pigeon-hole'. Adorable!


Resignation = Promotion

:: by Eric ::

How true!

For some unfortunate people (which is actually represented by a vast majority of the workforce available, in other words - you & me), it is not until some drastic measures are demonstrated that our employer would realize that they have actually been (long) taking our contribution to their organization for granted..

I tendered my resignation letter to the human resource on the 15th of September, reason:
  1. Too much work for too little money
  2. Too much high-leveled commitment required for a low position
  3. Chaotic back-end processes (I guess it is the same elsewhere.. haha..)
HR came back to me a couple of days back (around 4th Oct) with the following letter..


The promotion & the increase in $$ did satisfy me, it matched the offers from other prospective employers as well. After praying bout it, puttin' in some thought, & discussing with Jessy, etc.. I have decided to stay for at least a while more until it is really due time for me to leave.

Actually, my bosses are great people, they have taught me a great deal of things since my first day of work. I've always looked up to them, they are my big know-it-all-brothers. It is just that the work load has been increasing ever since I joined.. and now, (not counting my bosses) I am actually the only person left (& surviving) in my sub-department (Product Pricing & Development).

Nevertheless, I thank God for giving clear directions in my life, I will seize every opportunity to fulfill my calling as an obedient Christian..
