StaR Buck in Xmas

Yesterday my colleague TF informed me dat
"Starbuck is going to give Free drink on 5-7 PM tomorrow".. (which is today)..
She was about to send me the promotion pic which i rejected for i was already anticipatin for dat from last Monday.

So quite obviously dat i wouldn't miss the rare chance..
for i had got myself 7 greentea frappes just for last month alone.

I went to Vivocity level 1 starbuck (there ar 2 starbucks), its a long queue as expected.
but it caught me by surprise as i had only waited for <20 mins..
ohh great.. en yes... greentea frappe is available.. (all drinks are free - only tall size though).
so i got myself a greentea frappe.. my fav drink for now.. (some1 told me its not gud to drink something so sweet occasionally.. ehmm she is rite.. but i jst can't resist)..

but i have no idea whether is it becos i din giv donation at starbuck door (for charity) that..
the frappe had a lot of rough ice and few small ice cube...
ehmmm.. see .. I am jst dat sensitive..
ehmmm.. maybe i was expecting them... to say "Hey u, we are watchin ya".. :p

Ok jst to wrap this up..
the free starbuck is to celebrate XMas, so it will most probably be on every December..
lets get another for next year then.. if starbuck is still around then..
which i am sure it will be the case....
CheeRs.. Greentea Frappe Rozk...

a - S.H.o.C.K - on X'Mas Month..

Tales spoken that X'Mas is the Cheerful Moment..Magical happiness..
is that just a mere beautified tale?
Wateve it is, there is always hope when we reach XMas month.

So finally we have reached our X'Mas month.
Our dept has started to plan for xmas party..
Everyone seem to be expecting the cheerful moment in a way or another.
it's at least a moment of relief after full year of fire fighting, burning-out at work.

Today is the 1st day of X'Mas month 2008, the right moment to wish for a brighter months even years ahead.

So here it is, as the story will be told by itself, my beginning of XMas month 2008 goes:
* We was having our biweekly IT dept meeting this morning (9 AM sharp - with not intention to promote any brand).
It was as expected.. another IT meeting with us reporting our working progress to Big Boss.
and as usual, quite alot of lecturing from Big Boss,
(my gut feel starting to tell me that this was not a perfect way to start the 1st day of XMas month)

Eventually the dept meeting finished by about 11 AM, and we went for lunch (with our OP members: HM, HL and me).
It was a nice moment as usual as well.

and to cut the story short, the things went just fine until we received a sms from our beloved Manager saying that he wanted to meet us in the meeting room just for 5 mins.

We tot it would be another meeting we had previously as he guided us on how to resolve our issues (and guess wat, we found that we were actually enjoying that kinda of meeting).
He is a super nice guy.. I could easily find myself guilty just by looking at him.

So we just went to 3rd floor serapong room as usual and he was there as usual as well waiting for us.
after a few chit chat and jokes as we normally do.
he started the session by telling us a S.H.o.C.K message that he is going to tender his resignation.
We were all feeling nothing but SHOCK...

I still couldn't believe it that after work i sent him a sms tellin him that,
I really wish that he will tell me that this is just his another joke...
but i knoe that it is obviously NOT.

I finally started to realize that either i am so easily touched by this kind of weak feelin or he is just dunno since when have became one of my reason of staying in my current job.
I believe that it is obviously the later that convincing me more ...

this feeling is like losing your leader during the war.
but again, wateve he has decided, i believe it would serve him better.
its always not easy to let go of someone nice.
but to let the nice to be greater good, it would be worth a try.

Anyway all i can say is all the best as i have said in my sms to him during his just passed Bday.
"Wish you all the happiness, health, money and prosperity in the world"

is this just another "c'est la vie" ... i really dunno knoe..
Do we have to be fierce .. just in order not to be bullied by other people..
Can't we just be nice although other ppl takes advantage from us
let it be a food of thought... but i definitely give the initial a big NO.
