Will u still be romantic and nice till we are old?
Will u still kiss me good morning
Will u still kiss me good night
Will u still be there when Manfred grows up
Will u still remember the me u first met
Will u still be mesmerized by our teenage puppy love
Will u still remember the first song u sang me
Will u still remember our cheesy slogan since 2001?
Thou sun and moon may pass away... Will IT still stay?

Keep your eyes away from his
When we were having dinner at Pastamania just now, there was young Indian family sitting behind me.
Through out the dinner Manfred was very jovial and kept giggling every time I turned to look at him. So mad cuteness!
When the Indian family was leaving, the mummy came to us and told us Manfred is a doll, and asked us to keep our eyes off his (he has electrifying eyes)
:) happy. And what a nice lady to actually came over and sent us compliments. :)
Good deed, good day!
On a side note, keke, after much pestering I've gotten a belated anniversary present from Big Darling. Kate Spade Stevie baby bag @ $320. It's a love at first sight when I first saw at suntec. Since we din celebrate our anniversary this year so he just got his to compensate for everything lor.

Manfred down with flu
Poor darling. Heard him sniff sniff while sleeping at night. Refuses milk or only drinks like 3oz and then vomited.
Last night had put 4ml of of fei zai water into his night feed and it really helps! He slept all the way to 4am cried for a diaper change, cried at 6am for morning feed.
Anyway he had shaved botak on 17.11.12 and I really missed his astro boy hairstyle. :(
Hope darling get well soon.

情势未了 － Unfinished Matters
易经。情势未了
陈师傅说我的命很旺。可以旺家人，旺老公和孩子。可是偏偏我有很多东西放不下，看不开。其实我懂得。我懂应该怎样做，可是最后还是放不下的。
《以柔克刚》－ 我做得到吗？
放下一些曾经对我来说很重要的人，我又做得到吗？

If one day, robots could replace human AEs... then what could I be?
If this day comes, I'd be lost.
Well, thou Im always cursing and swearing, but I love my job. I mean if there comes a day that I dont even feel like swearing anymore, it also means I have lost the passion for my job.
Its the nature of the job I enjoy - in the illusionized world of design. No right or wrong, you just have to sell it like a masterpiece. Servicing clients, especially difficult ones has its combo challenges. And because we are not selling products, but designs, which is very subjective, it takes a little more than "that" to SELL. How do you convince your clients that it's WHITE when it's actually BLACK... Or that it's a chicken, when it's actually a duck... Ahhh, that's our job... :) Not saying that we always "Smoke"our clients, but most of the times we have to draw an illusion for them to nod their head and smile silly.. and eventually sign the contract. But first of all, we have to LOVE what we are selling to the clients lar. It's business 道德。
Sometimes the hubby farking hate it when I swear and scold THE "F" word... or some other Hokkien vulgarities when I share with him stories at work. BUT, its difficult not to swear when u meet people who have no common sense, or unreasonable, or vent anger on you when they are not in their best mood, or think they are big fark when they pay peanuts... It's very frustrating! Please, someone introduce me an AE who doesn't swear... I would like to meet The SAINT.
Apart from "those clients' problems", of coz there are a lot of internal problems. When we are over-busy and bring in too much "business", designers have too much on their plates, and they "black face" us lor. But when we don't bring in as much as we could, I WILL GET CALLED INTO THE ROOM and kenna questioned. :( ME! Not the team. Very sians one lar.
But, overall, Im really glad that I still have a very positive team, as in my AEs. Of coz we grumble (ALOT) when we kenna"kiap" sandwiched between boss and designers and clients (WOAH, 3 way sia), but we made it thru most of the times. The best way out is to make jokes outta every problems we face lor, humour is the best medicine and solution. Laugh over it, go back sleep, and tomorrow is a good ol' brand new day! Yes, AE is not for everyone... not for the faint-hearted, hot-headed, bimbo etc.
Idon't seldom bring work frustrations back home. Not worth it. Especially now that I have my precious darling waiting for me back home, SMILE! And the world will smile with you. :D
Coming back to the title, hmm... i dont think i will be going back to marketing. This is the career where I will stay. unless... I dunno, maybe some really good offers approach me. :) But, I dont think so.
OR, i will just be a SAHM for Manfred. :) But, but, I always believe WOMAN MUST BE FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT, no matter how much you earn, 少有少赚，多有多赚。Can never rely on your man for $$$. They will treat you like dust when years go by, and then you become this "yellow face woman". Yes, you can request forexpensive luxurious gifts now and then lar... but ultimately you know you can afford it yourself even if he doesnt buy for you. :)
Ah, and the email comes in.. gotta go back to work. BA! (blog again)
