Goodbye my fellow colleagues at Paragon

To: All my fellow colleagues of Metro Paragon

Time really flies. It's coming to 1 year since i've worked at Metro Paragon. Now i am transferred to City Square. Today is my last day working at Metro Paragon. And the most memorable day ever.

Thanks for all the great wishes from my fellow colleages, staff and promoters. Thanks for all the gifts too. Really touched and appreciate all you guys have done. Thanks for the wonderful memories you all have given me during my stay. Thanks to my staff Chun May, June, William, Carmen for the support all these while. A BIG thanks to Amy and Kevin. Without the continuous support and guidance I would not have come these far today. To my CS colleagues. Really happy working with you all during my 2 month stay. Lydia, Ima, Maggie and Hana thanks for the joy and laughter. Will miss all of you. Especially... "Naughty Boy.. Raboo will bite you!" ....... My darling Pearlynn a pity you are not around today. Thanks to you and Joselyn for the pen. Like it lots. Catherine, Pei Pei, Aileen, Rosita.... great to have know all of you. Too many people to mention ... It's a joy to have worked with all of you.

It was indeed a tearful goodbye. We will meet again. Take care all.....


With Love..
Eden

Dinner with Amy

Had dinner with Amy and colleagues who will be transferring to City Square. Great food and fish head curry. But quite an emotional dinner. So sad to part with our great department manager. It is a memorable dinner and one i'll never forget.



"Amy, I would like to thank you for the support and guidance you had given me over this 1 year working with you. I had truly learnt alot. Your empowerment for me to run the department freely had given me great exposure to many things I could have never experience. I will remember your words always and improve on my shortcoming. I'll not let you down. It's really great working with you! Thank you once again!"

Rock Haji Lane


I combed almost every shop in Haji Lane with Beng on Saturday. And I got myself so many nice tees. Haji Lane is becoming my top and favourite shopping destination ever. Never had I been able to get so much tees at the same time at shopping malls nowadays. All because I will end up wearing the same stuff with others on the streets. And I hate it. I am just lucky on Saturday to grab all these at great deals. Nothing more than $40 per tee. Mostly are less than $30. Will hit Haji Lane again when the new season stocks come again.

Do check out :

- Grey Homme
- White Room
- Peepz
- Victoria Jomo
- Collage

and... more!!! =)


OH YA!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IVAN!!! I know the Korean cuisine do not suits you. Paiseh!! Hope you had a great evening!

LOST CROCS!

LOST CROCS??!!!!
17th August 2009
The left side of a pair of Crocs (Men's Athens, Pearl White/Turqoise, M10) went missing overnight!! The poor slipper was used less than 5 times before it got stolen. A pair of lime green Havainnas however, was unwanted by the thief. The thief was believed to only like slippers and only the left foot. The owner, Eden was amazed by this whole incident. He could not believe that such a stupid thief exists. What can the thief do with the left side of the slipper?
Anyone with news or sightings of the missing slipper can leave a message on the shoutbox on the right hand side of this page.

Bad Day

It was a bad day!

I was told I had shortage of $142.70 yesterday when i was at the cashier. I did not charge customer. It could have declined or no dial tone.

Maybe it really happenend. I cannot remember. Was too busy. Too many customers. I did not deny fault. I accepted it. I may have overlooked. But why is she so inhuman? No alternatives were given to me. She did not bother to help. I was labelled a culprit. Fed Up. Really too much. It is $142.70!! Not $14.27! She did not thought of how people felt. This amount is equivalent to part of my OT = I worked for nothing these few days. You are the in charge and that was the way you treated people. THANK YOU! So many people touched that counter and because it was my login ID. So the culprit is me. Think about it.... everyone is so damn busy and I have to take care of so many things. Errors like that are inevitable. You should try to understand.

Of course, the boiling me did not give in. Went straight to ATM, drew money and put the exact amount right in front of her immediately. At that point of time I only thought of shutting her gap. Only after that I felt the pain. My effort and hard work these few days just flushed away. Yes, I was rude but I do not give a damn!

Really appreciate Yu Chan's help. And all those who listened and showed concern. Thank You Mr. Tan for helping me waive the amount. Really appreciate lots!!

A really bad day for me. But I learnt a lesson. We must always spare a thought for others. And try to help all our colleagues when they were in need. They are our internal customers too. Only then we can work together well.

Dancing in the Rain

~Maggie sent me this... very meaningful.......~

There once was a woman who woke up one morning,looked in the mirror and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
'Well,' she said,
'I think I'll braid my hair today.'So she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up,looked in the mirrorand saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
'H-M-M,' she said,
'I think I'll part my hair down the middle today.'So she did and she had a grand day..
The next day she woke up,looked in the mirror and noticedthat she had only one hair on her head.
'Well,' she said,
'today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail.'So she did, and she had a fun, fun day.


The next day she woke up,looked in the mirror and noticedthat there wasn't a single hair on her head.
'YAY!' she exclaimed.
'I don't have to fix my hair today!'



Attitude is everything.
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.


Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly...


Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain.
