My 2008

December is coming to an end, marking the year 2008 coming to an end too. It's common for people to recap on the ups and downs by the end of the year. So here I am, thinking back how was the year 2008 for Jessie..

January 2008
  • Purchase a Perodua Myvi 1.3 EZ on my own (no help from parents!)


I finally afford to get my own car this year, on January 2008, I managed to push in my old problematic kancil in exchange for Vivi.. She's a beautiful car.. before I had to force her into the muddy pool at site! Sorry vivi...

April 2008
  • Engaged with a pet rabbit : PIGGY

He's a great pet. I never regret bringing him home and face my mom's daily nagging. Though he's not of good breed, but he has great personality.. he's the coolest rabbit I seen so far..

May 2008
  • A visit to Phuket with Wilson and friends


Phuket is a great experience. We had close encounter with the ah-guas, yeap.. our tour guide is one. We went to bars with Ahguas dancing on the table, beach with colourful umbrella and busy surfers, first experience wearing bikini walking around and first experience getting SO SO sick (food poisoning) at a foreign country.

September 2008
  • Joined a Multinational Company.


This is the major career leap for me. I joined Q-Cells in September 2008, the largest Photovoltaic Solar Cells Manufacturer in the world. Responsibility and workload are getting heavier and stressful, but it's worth to grab this opportunity to earn experience. Ramping up a plant ain't easy at all..

  • Job Training in Europe


I've always wanted to visit Europe.. this year my wish is granted. I got a 15 days job training in Germany. In the weekends, I even traveled to Czech Republic with my new colleagues that are fun and sporting!! I anticipate great time ahead working with them! What more there will be another trip to Germany again next year. Yipeee..~

October 2008
  • Cut my long long hair short

I've kept long hair (at least shoulder length) for at least 10 years! Now, I found the ultimate courage to cut off the long hair.. to this BOB hairstyle.. and loving it now~ I guess short hair makes me look fierce... which is needed for my job now.. hehe

December 2008
  • A getaway to Langkawi with Wilson


One of the ways to keep relationship sparks alive is to have getaways once in a while.. we do this often, but recently Wilson keep reminding me to save money.. looks like getaways will be reduced to minimum in the coming year..


There goes my 2008, a great great year for me... I'm so excited to say HI~ to 2009. No regrets in 2008, I shall start thinking what's my resolution for Year 2009.. hrm~

W.O.T.P SPA Signing

*Taking a break from writing bout the wedding, since we have not received the photos yet* We have secured the purchase of W.O.T.P few months ago and we were too busy to settle for the Sales and Purchase Agreement signing. Finally on the 22nd of Jan, we made appointment with the lawyer to have the signing exercise at Wilson's office. Why 22nd of Jan? We did consult wofs.com's almanac to select the auspicious day for contract signing, and thus, 22nd of Jan. We were greeted with 2 big stacks of SPA papers and the lawyer slowly explain to us what were we signing on each documents. The lawyer is a little blur in her explanation but nevertheless she did tell us what's essential. Well..well.. even though it's not our first time signing SPA, but it's still necessary to know what we're signing. Since the legal fees are all bear by the developer, that includes the loan agreement legal fees as well, so we simply signed both the agreements together with the devel...

Pregnancy Updates: Half way there!

I'm 20 weeks pregnant now! It's a halfway milestone and it has been really smooth *touch wood* so far since the beginning of 2nd trimester. The vomiting and nausea seems to be gone overnight as I moved into Week 14. The very day my iPhone app congratulate me on my milestone, I felt a gush of energy rushing back to my body. And, for the first time in 3 months I felt... hungry! It was such a great feeling, I got ready to work and before heading out, I put up joss sticks to thank god for this miracle. And I kept my fingers, toes and everything crossed this feeling last. I bet my baby is a very punctual baby, just like the daddy. So with the deadly morning sickness gone, I am feeling myself again and started to enjoy the pregnancy much. My rhintis seems to get better after hubby installed the air purifier in our room and I get good sleeps every night with clear nostrils. My bump is showing and everyone is quite surprised to see a bump at just beginning of 3rd month. I research...

Bali Trip Day 2

We woke up the next morning, feeling all fresh with the gentle cooling breeze and chirping of the birds outside the chalet. As we opened the door, we were thrilled by the tropical Bali feelings round the chalet area. These scenes were so familiar, in the movies, magazines, novels, commercials, cafes, clubs etc.. the "Bali" style; now we're experiencing it in person. - Abangan Bungalow - - Our chalet a.k.a villa - - The walkway in the hotel - - Other types of villa - We ordered our breakfast, scrambled eggs, toasts, fruits and coffee. It was a real relaxation having breakfast at the chalet balcony, looking at the greens. I love this feelings, away from hassle, away from workloads, away from problems. Ah, so divine. :) - Relaxing on the couch, outside the villa, after breakfast - After breakfast we took a stroll down at the Ubud streets. First I saw the signature Bali gate, I was thrilled! "Take photo! Take photo!" I shouted.. So, I posed and took photo. Then, I p...
