Canteen Food - Part 2

On my second week of observing the newly-operated-canteen food...

Here's what i had:

(Clockwise from bottom) Chicken rendang, fish in assam gravy, egg omelette, and stir-fried cabbage

still not bad...

Tasty Little Kitchen

I guess i have been absent from posting nice foodie stuffs in this blog...

Not that i hav refrain from enjoyin yummylicious (mayb not so) food...but...life have been kinda busy and hectic these days..that i dun hav time to upload & transfer those pics to my laptop...

(what an excuse!)

3 weeks back, i went to this place called "Tasty Little Kitchen"...and ordered some local dishes...

Been here for the 2nd time, and this time i decided to try their ala-carte rather than ordering set meals.

I had pork dumpling soup (cantonese: "sui kow" soup) 

 and  "yeung chow" fried rice (Chinese style fried rice)

it turns out to be rather plain and dry...

luckily i ordered the soup...else i will hav problem digesting this plate of rice...

anyhow....tastewise is so-so only

perhaps i should try other stuffs.

Canteen Food - Part 1

This is no ordinary canteen food...

I had this on the first week of the newly operated canteen...

(clockwise from bottom) Stir-fried bean sprout, beancurd, chicken with chilli sauce, and fish in ginger/lemongrass sauce...

well, it is 4 dishes with rice!

I hope to have such luxurious lunch daily....but nope...the quality and the quantity of food is depreciating as day passes :-(

Blue Monday & Dreaming of Nice Food

It's blue or perhaps 'Black' day today...due to the GE13 result...I can't believe that PR loses this time...it shouldn't be. Many has returned to vote, even spent hours of flight to come home to vote...but the outcome is still the same...all thanks to the dirty tricks done by the ruling party!

Anyhow, on another note, i spoke to my superior of my resignation reason....he too understood...coz i guess this is the first time in the company that the entire team resigned and left with no one...AND i guess i m the sole survivor now....perhaps not (if i decided to leave, when no agreement reached)....

so, what did i told him?

i told my boss tht i m sick of eating instant noodle everytime staying back for OT.

am yearning for satay...such as below

 and plenty of food on my table for dinner....

well, no point of earning so much but having no chance to enjoy the hard labor, rite?

well...enough said....i just wish to have curry chicken, kangkong belacan (stir fried water convolvulus with chilli paste) and Bojari rice rite now....

 

I want to hav 'em all @ Madam Kwan's

droolin..............

i guess my mind has been swayed rite now...

 

My face is as round as egg tarts

Egg tarts!

yea....they are roundish, yellowish, smooth on the surface, chewable on the inside, crispy at the layer...

~~~~~~~drooling~~~~~~

i bought these @ Mr.Siew Bao (a bakery shop)

tastewise so-so only, coz it is not their specialty...(as the name stated, their specialty is "Siew Bao" aka pork pastry/puff)

but despite that...i still enjoy munching on it!

While it is not related (to the tarts)...my face is getting rounder and rounder as i grow older...just like the egg tarts!!!

Moody

I am so moody to proceed with any task right now. Yesterday i was so gung-ho about completing my task, but today i m no different from a dead fish.

I'm demotivated on doing anything. Felt that my job is very operational, needs lotsa attention and very time-consuming. It has no difference of picking up and sorting out a bag of beans! It would be good if there is a machine to do this for me ;-)

Lately i hav been tinkin' of quitting my job...coz i felt i m not supposed to be here anymore. Well, what on earth does a person with an above average intelligent, good technical background, and a graduate from a prestigious & highly reputable university do an operational job?! is a waste of talent and i felt sorry for myself for under-utilizing my brain, talent & lotsa dedication.

This isn't a human job after all....it drains out my energy coz of too much focus and attention in completing the tasks, but it doesn't train my brain to think logically...coz it's all operational & tedious!

What saddened me most is not just the operational work, but seeing my colleague (from the other team) who enjoys her travels with her teammates, makes me even more heartache.

I dream to be in a job that is based overseas. Well, i mean both are not easy job, why should i suffer here? i would rather take up a job tht is based abroad, suffers (coz in both my job and her job, aren't easy job after all), and earn my hardship allowance!

Working locally doesn't give me any hardship allowances, despite me working round the clock, international time! Worse still, i m being treated like a 3rd-class labour, who being commanded to 'do back-end support' the Sales Manager. Well, they are the one who gets all the glory & recognition (plus rewards) when the deal is closed, not my team, and definately not me.

Recently i went to a few interviews, and both are able to offer me a good remuneration. Well, these company out there who doesn't know me well (and my contribution) can pay me well enuff. It is so upsetting that my own company who knows my talent and ability, only keep on exploiting my "labor" and "services"!

DEEP SIGH..............

For these 2 companies that recognizes my talent,

 

 

thank you for givin' me an opportunity.

Bracelets

Got this bracelet from a neighborhood fashion store and immediately bought it without thinking further!

Looks colourful and bright 

 and easily paired with my ring that i bought in Turkey ;-)
