Pretty Women Are Good Liars

One girl pointed at the t-shirt slogan and commented.

"It is so not true!"

The guy said. "It is not talking about you! Can't you see it is talking about Pretty Women?"

She got angry and walked away.

Another girl walked close to the tee shirt and commented.

"It is not true!"

Another guy said "You see, you lie again !"
She got angry, walked away too.

It is Sunday, whether it is a church day or a party day, it is Fabulous Sunday, no matter what.

Happy father's day .. I don't have the opportunity to celebrate this again. I wish everyone who is going out with dad .. enjoy.

Treasure when you still have him.

Boss of Me


The author emailed me the cover of the book today, at the same time, to get my final approval, on the layout photos she is using for my interview column within. For the last 2 months since the interview was carried out, I have been thinking who else she is adding to this list of people to share the secrets of what each think is successful in life. I finally got to know the names.

This is what i said "Success is achieving what I wanted to achieve at every stage of my life."

The book should be out in major bookstores by August.

Thanks Pearlin for allowing me to share once again.

Short and Sweet: Noone should be Denied ...

Joe came to me ..

"Shenzi, ask you something.!"

"Yes, what?"

"If someone i like is attending a camp, but i know that no phone is allowed, and that that person will not be contacted, should i still sms?"

"He or She ?" I asked. joking.

"She .. it is She !" he laughed. As usual, when Joe laughed, everybody can imagine what kind of laughter he gives. (I shall record it and use it as my phone ring tone one day !)

"Do what you want to do, noone should be denied the chance to express his own feeling !" i said.

"True ! True !" he walked to one corner and smiled.

Breastfocate

I was at the heeren before the main shop closed for the day, and Andruew, Jing Wen and Shukri decided to go for a drink and makan after work. So I walked them over to cineleisure and we sat there for a late dinner and a good cup of drink.

Andruew told us that he will be working in mini with Josh next sunday selling the bikinis, and we started the topic of revision what type of bikini for which body type. So i tested 3 of them one by one ...

Then the boys taught me one new word BREASTFOCATE, and i promised them i will introduce this on my blog tonight.

A good NUMtee tagline can be inpsired from this I am sure. Let me think !!! :) anyone can suggest anything cool?

Purple Cow: Very Good is BAD!


I bought this book when I visited Taipei last year. One best activity one could do in Taipei is to visit Chen Pin (Eslite) 24 hour bookstore, especially late night early morning, when all other activities cease, and you have this only place to go.

For me, visiting Eslite is not because there is nothing else i can do. I love reading, and I enjoy having the chance to be by myself latenight and to be able to find interactions at such wee hour. Me and the books.

Purple cow is a marketing and branding book, aims to transform one's business by Being Remarkable. I read through it once, before passing to Caesar and Ben, and I just got it back yesterday, and I decided to browse it through one more time.

For many who may not be in the field of marketing, branding, you may find this book irrelevant. But one thing I would like to share .. One slogan in the book says

"Very Good is BAD!" ... so no wonder everybody goes for Bad Boys. Yo !

A Life Experience for Leisher.

APB is looking for a numboy to be their tiger beer ambassador, and to appear on the next magazine issue cover. Picked Leisher as he is ready for this project now, and i thought for all the efforts he has put into maintaining his physique, give him a chance to experience something different in his life .. he dropped me this email after his photo shoot.

He wrote:

Hello shenzi, i finally had the time to write to you since after the shoot on sat. First of all, i would like to thank you again for giving me this opportunity. This shoot is probably the most tiring i ever had in terms of facing in front of the camera. The concept of this shoot is casual. I had to work with a girl to act as if we're a customer there. Its the most awkward feeling. But at the same time fun. I had problems smiling in front of the cam. Normally im always good with a fierce look.

I had a long day there but the people around me made me feel comfortable. The make up artist were great to work with. The "sisters" both made my day laughing away. Not forgetting Ben Lee and Benjie. They talked and calmed me down. As this was my first major shoot, it'll be hard doin it alone. I have to admit u have great guys workin around you. I hope the pictures turn out great as i never really felt confident taking one. Don't forget the meal i owe you. See you around in the shop soon. You have a great night


I replied .. saying great opportunity belongs to anyone who is ready. It is not about the money, it is the valuable experience.

Sexist


I visited The Cathay first before I headed to the office today. Adrian just implemented a new notice board for every single outlet, so I decided to go see how they are being impemented. This is what I saw ... It was written as such "Smile to very customer. Smile wider if SHE's Hot!"
I told Andy and gang, this is too sexist, so I rubbed off the S, and this is what one can find on the board now. This is more NUM ya. Cheers.

One of the Best Views for My Soul


Home is where i rest my soul. That is why I decided to clear my balcony from any blockage, so that when I wake up each morning, the days when I choose not to close the curtain, i could look straight into the pool, just a stone throw away from the apartment, one of the best views i think, that i could spend a great amount of time staring out and find that life is really beautiful. Ha !

My Own Blog Diary

I guess for many of those who are keen to read what I have to say and share, this is the word you will use. Finally, I'm creating and writing my own blog diary.

Frankly, I do not know how much I will write about my day to day life here, as i gather that if I would to write everything I know in this cyberspace, many of you will come bribing me for things not to share.

But what is the point of writing a blog diary, without airing my thought, or sharing my views, and telling stories of the life I am living, right?

So why I decided to write?

Only today, I realised that I have not been taking much picture about what is around me. I do not have the habit of bringing along a camera with me when I travel, until my recent trips. I am also not a cam whore, who will admire myself after a good picture taken.

I believe too much in keeping everything within myself, perhaps? Including memories that I have been keeping in between my ears all these while.

I found out that as I live this life, I have a great deal to share, and many things that I want to say, I need pictures to tell ......
