For all Bosses/Bosses-to-be

love how this rhymes and the message it brings..*nods head*

Tell Them Now

If with pleasure you are viewing
Any work a man is doing,

If you like him or you love him tell him now.
Don't withhold your approbation
Till the parson makes oration
And he lies with snowy lilies on his brow,

For no matter how you shout it
He won't really care about it

He won't know how many teardrops you have shed
So if some praise is due him
Now's the time to slip it to him
For he cannot read his tombstone when he's dead.

More than fame and more than money
Is the comment kind and sunny

And the hearty warm approval of a friend,
For it gives to life a savor
And it makes you stronger, braver,
And it gives you heart and courage to the end.

If he earns your praise, bestow it
If you like him, let him know it

Let the words of true encouragement be said.
Do not wait till life is over
And he's underneath the clover,
For he cannot read his tombstone when he's dead.

NEWZ!

Some funny pics over the past few weeks that i chanced upon...

On the Royal Wedding (29/04/11):


Of course we all noticed the 'evil stepsisters' get-up!! I just didn't think it'd be that out-of-the-storybook. Kudos to the person who pegged this picture together! haha i must say the 2 duchesses really know how to snag a pinch of publicity from the real stars of the day!

Yam Ah Mee:



Another brilliant dude did this. haha hilarious! i love ma mee dried noodle snacks (out of point). Anw, apparently he's quite shuai probably just a couple of years back. Although seriously, that monotonous voice can shrivel even the most hardhearing of eardrums. Nevertheless, he's probably going to be remembered by most first time voters in SG this year when the next GE comes, thanks to the billion times he had to repeat that dry but probably necessary law of declaration.

Hokay! On other news.... WE GOT A FLAT!!!! ok a queue number. But it's a CONFIRM CAN GET UNIT number, unlike the previous lame 600-odd queue number when the total number of units was like 400+.

So the number to remember is 212 out of 246 units. Sigh, imma gonna reject the chance if i don't get the ideal unit though. But, as WL says, even getting a number is like winning the lottery in SG! His friend is on his 5th try and has yet to even get a queue number at all. As in not even those 'useless, give you hope' numbers incase someone decides to reject their choice. 

Anyway, the residence in topic is...Punggol Waterway Terrace II!!

Eco-friendly, uniquely designed Punggol BTO


Hexagonal-terrace design facing atas longkang


Looks prettyyy good to me! :) If we can get a decent - not too low and not facing backwards unit, that is. *prays hard*

H88 gives a very uplifting review here too. Quote:

"Should I go for this?
If you can afford it - of course! This is one of HDB's highest profile BTO in Punggol. The design is so unique, it's got balconies and it is very near Punggol MRT and the upcoming megamall! The resale value looks pretty rosy too."

Well, as they say, third time's a charm!!! i really hope! :D
