haven't been blogging for a long time.. since the last entry till nw, lots of stuff has happened.. celebrated kel's birthday, dabbled in property line w kel (as his PA waHahaha), met lotsa interesting ppl, received another sweet surprise fr the man, met up w frens like maine & jia, close colleagues left the co.......
life's been bittersweet.. but more swt than bitter :)

have been wanting to get a new cam for a long time.. was initially eyeing the TZ7 but i intend to get a big ass one nxt yr so just want a simple one to tide me over till then.. something very portable yet takes good macro pics.. something w more than 3x zoom, something w iso 3200 (when this is the highest available for compact cam, i can no longer accept iso 1600.. ROAR!!) and i was decidign btwn TZ7 and FX48 till i saw that the ZR1 will be out in the nxt quarter but i can't wait so long!! the ZR1 rocks!! but its too long a wait... i was undecided until i went to harvey norman sale @ expo.. i saw a great olympus @ 369 only! I nearly grabbed it.. but i took a walk arnd the fair and i saw the... samsung NV9! its one of a kind video functions had me there and then! sadly its only a 5x zoom but i guess we can't have everything in such a small package.. (ZR1 can fufil my needs though) so i bought it.. too bad there was only the silver or the pink one.. i saw the pictures of the black version and i love it! =x nevertheless its super macro functions will keep me happy for a while :) and its super cheap too!! =D (p/s: thanks darling!)

AIA has this cool new pdt (launched 27th July and gonna remove it by end of this wk already! selling like hotcakes!!) that acts like a fixed deposit of 5 years but gives the highest int rate in town of 2.75% p.a! Its really cool but they're hitting their cap too fast.. anw thats not the point.. the point is.. we recently tied up with them and therefore attended their pdt launch of this AIA wealth accumulator @ the Equinox.. cool huh? but they removed tables and seats so as to accomodate all the IFAs that attended the pdt launch.. so we had to STAND thru the reception, the launch, the lucky draw blah blah blah... grr.. most imptly, they DREW THE BLINDS!!!! -_-" someone tell me why they choose to book the equinox in that case pls.. leaving only the blinds at the corners up, 90% of us cldn enjoy the scenery.. they can easily draw the curtains down during presentation right? wat a waste...

A close colleague recently decided to jump to manulife.. felt a little sad as it seems to me to be a career regression but still, its her choice.. the pay is indeed better.. but she's one of the closest coleagues i have so it was kinda sad... =(
