Stuck

I really feel stuck in this company. Was supposed to set up a new department as promised when hiring, but i ended up as a multi tasking employee( due to the business owner health issues ) , which it is supposed to be good that i get to learn many things from different departments, but it has been 10 months and i still doing the same thing over and over again. The point is i dun know when i get to see the light at the end of the tunnel. How much time do i have for this pathetic company ? Not more than a year. If they do not realise the promise , i will have to go for a greener pasture. F*ck Off.

Nice rock song from Amei, Amit 阿密特.
The credit goes to her powerful lungs and Lam Sai 林夕 s modern and classic lyrics.

New Year Shopping Spree 2011

On 1 Jan 2011 , both porky and i decided to go for a shopping spree. We met at Orchard , decided to comb the town with our strongest will power to bring back my goods of desire. Porky was looking for business shirt ( as always ) . I was looking for a parka with hood , a comb, casual wear shoes.

But first of all , hungry and angry me must be fed, so that i wont bite. Porky was brilliant enough to bring me to Island Cafe above Tangs , we had a good feast.

I bought a comb at sasa , Porky was hunting high and low for me for my parka at Uniqlo , he was very particular about the "virginity" of the shirt , whether if this is a brand new piece or for fitting purpose. I was particular about the price / design / quality. We had a hard time to reach consensus. He came out with idea that he would hide the item i like but it was last piece on shelves , so that if we cannot find a better piece , we would come back for it. That s when Porky Pig turned into a squirrel prepares for winter hibernation , he hides things.

In the end i got the things i want at Somerset 313 and Porky still cannot find his stuffs. I headed home satisfied but he has to continue his search.

Soda Green 11 Dec 2010

Here are some photos. My camera was not able to capture images in dark so i left with few photos that i can post here.

Entry

Qing fen stood high on the signage of Sodagreen, and the handsome guitarist Liu showing off his toned biceps.


Thanks to the big LED screen , else the fat girls and boys in front our rows would block the lead singer on the stage for most of the time. Their concernt music was very rock this time as the Violinist Kong is on national service, so no violin play this time.

Qing fen looked like Le Petit Prince on the stage , is not it.

One of the special songs , Trapped.

They sang about 20 songs and all were great , especially Qing fen , his vocal was very stable on the day and managed to hit high notes even " Dolphin pitch ". Many old songs were sang too by him, surprisingly he was quite good on the stage as a host too.

We had encored twice and when they came back to stage, Qing Fen asked which last 2 songs we wanted him to sing , Dearest Mr Porky Pig shouted out loudest alone "This day" suddenly for his life time. i think Qing fen was impressed by his tragic shout , in the end he picked " This day " as one of the two songs to end the show. Not bad, piggy.

Soda Green 11 Dec 2010

Porky has bought the tic for Soda Green concert a few weeks ago. We both love this band bcs of the lead singer , Qing Fen. He is definitely a motivating story for PLU , who is talented as singer and song writer. He did not fit in to any categories of main stream pop, not a hunk , pop icon , but he is receiving good reviews and has a successful band in Taiwan music scene. We love his lyrics , his unique singing ( kind of hard to tell it s boy or girl when he sings ), and to me he is a male version of Faye Wong , with a rock band. I kept playing his songs in my Ipod on Sunday afternoon , when i was walking home alone a year ago on Shanghai streets after my lunch during autumn, missing Porky pig at the same time. Porky also fall in love with this band later, but he likes to spoil their songs with his singing , imaging Peking Opera singing "Unbeatable Beauty".

We went to Max Pavillion at Spore last night , the concert started at 8 pm, i was not feeling well , due to my trachea infection at nostril and throat. I was feeling breathless , but Porky pig kept on talking and i had to keep silence.

The concert was great and will update some photos next time. We love the band, and it s good to be back to Singapore.
