LittLe @ppReCi@tiOn ... MaKes My d@y!!!

These 2 weeks haf been really taxing for me & aunty.... coz 2 of us work non-stop ... runnin & rushin here & there trying to get things done & @ d same time managin time & ensuring the smooth runnin of the company.... 2 of us becoming like zombies le... but well, we noe how to entertain urselves by creating laughter to de-stress!!

Attended a talk during lunch, related to my work and i tink it benefitted me coz i understand the co-treatment of CA and can explain to my customers beta.... Boss is really nice to gif me greater responsibilities... doing U/S... hehe!!! It was fun... 1st time hands on... not as easy to get a nice pic... as itz 2D image... co-ordination muz be good. I did well for 1st timer and Boss gave me permission to go ahead to scan for customers 1st while waiting for her... hehe!! Feel so happy & excited!!!!

But i tink we are really happy to noe tat our hard work is paid off & being appreciated, thou not able to make every customer appreciate... but tat 1 or 2 will make a great difference and gives us the motivation to work harder.

Boss was really sweet & appreciative of us workin really hard for her these 2 weeks. After a long week & day @ work... she said somethin pleasant thou itz only 2 simple sentences... itz enuff to make us feel so appreciated & happy... Here it goes, "Ladies, noe u both haf worked very hard these 2 weeks & i appreciated it very much & thank you very much... haf a good weekend" ... itz juz sounds so soothing to the ears thou it may seem nothing to most pple.

nother event tat makes us both really happy is an Indonesian customer was really appreciative of our care towards her during the past week... helpin her out during the whole process.... she actually bought us both a batik scarf from Indonesia... When she passed it to us, we were like SHOCKED!!! Coz we dint do much juz our part and duty of wat is required and i tink we really touches her heart.... she was really thankful towards us... We love the little gift alot coz itz juz so nice & soft....

Thou itz juz a small gift... but it means alot to us coz it not only shows how much patient appreciates us but also touches our hearts ... encouragin & motivating us to give out more to our customers... Thanks Ms."Y" !!!!

Got a good deal from Winnie coz she sold me her 2nd hand Coach wallet wif card holder in a set for juz $200 as she used it only for merely 2 weeks . Well, it still looks brand new and $200 is really cheap so decided to buy it from her.Really thank Darlin Winnie for sellin it to me @ such a good price.... Been wanting to get Coach items... and finally i got it.

Cody gone to Paradise

Cody has left Vanessa Cutie's family and me for another paradise on 3rd March 2007,he was turning 9 yrs old.... It was a Sat and i was @ work.... very busy day for me... when i finally saw cutie's sms saying "cody went into deep sleep le" i was shocked.... tot he went into coma...as he develop stroke on 24th Feb... when we went to M'sia.... when i called cutie... she says he's gone.... and she was weeping... I was REALLY stunned and shocked!!! It came too sudden and too fast.... cannot accept tat Cody is gone juz like tat. My heart dropped!! Plus hearing cutie's weeping sounds... made my heart sink even deeper... and she wasnt in the mood to tok.... said will call me later... i cant understand how she feels coz she's really close to Cody.... even i was upset... not to say his owner...

But i tot i was strong.... dint weep a tear coz i noe i haf to be strong... if not cutie will cry more hearing me cry. 1st thing tat came to my mind was to tink of ways to cheer cutie up. Wanted to get her a little gift... tot of "Mother Garden" @ Vivo coz i noe cutie loved the rabbit i got her for Xmas... so decided to go there. Met ah boy in the evening and went to Vivo.... searched ard... dint noe wat to get... saw a doggie soft toy... wif the brown patch on 1 eye... looked really cute... tot wanted to get her tat .... but ah boy reminded me tat will it rub salt on her wound... coz she juz lost a dog and now i buy her a doggie toy .... might cause her to be more upset as it might remind her of Cody constantly.... hence, decided not too... got her a rabbit purse instead... itz really cute... hope tat d little purse will cheer her up alittle. Passed her the purse on Sun nite... glad she looked ok and she like the cutie rabbit.

I wasnt as strong as i tot i was.... Mon nite... was reading blog... read cutie's blog abt Cody and my tear juz keep flowing down automatically like a open tap.... juz couldnt control myself.... suddenly i really miss Cody alot alot.... & my heart aches & cried even louder when i read the part where cutie describe wat happened tat morning before they put him to sleep.... Cody juz proves tat he's really a very good & loyal dog towards cutie & family and it juz shows how much he loves them and how much he's gonna miss them. I'm so sad i couldnt be there to see him 1 last chance.... thou itz cruel to put him to sleep but i guess itz d best way out for him since he's suffering. Ah boy was toking to me over the phone when i was reading and when i cried... he got a big shock... he almost rushed down to my place to see if i was ok... oops!! Dint mean it... was really juz very emotional tat nite... I really haf regrets that i couldnt see or cuddle him for juz 1 last time... never did i noe 24th was the last time i saw him and touch him... and last time i could let him lick me on my arms.... Thou i'm closer to Cody only recent few years... but we really dote on each other... i noe he dote on me alot juz like cutie's family dotes on me.... he treats me like his family and i could feel it. I've always love dogs ... but mum dun allow me to rear 1 so i've always regard Cody as my dog... Never will i be able to play wif him, cuddle him, sleep wif him nor hear him bark when i'm @ the door anymore.... tat very nite... i could feel exactly wat cutie muz haf felt worse knowing & witnessing him beening put to sleep.... i really cried for very long tat nite... haben cried like tat for a long long time....

Cody has been a really good & obedient & smart doggie... always comin to the door to welcome me or jumpin to the back of the car to look for me when cutie's dad drove us.... he's always so adorable.... never once did he bite me... he loves to sleep wif me on the mattress whenever i camp over @ cutie's place... loves me to cuddle him... he's really such a darling doggie to haf. He loves chicken wings... comes to us whenever he smells chicken wings... loves to hide under the sofa when he noes we are leaving hse and will need to lock him up.... noes how to do his business in the toilet on the newspaper.... he's juz so adorable....

Thou lots of ppl will miss him.... but i guess the sweet memories of him wif us will slowly erase the pain & sadness we are experiencing now... Cody boy u will be in my memories forever and ever... will miss u forever... Love u !!!!

Backview of Cody boy @ Vanesssa's room.... waiting patiently for some1 to open the door for him.

PS: Haf to admit tat i teared again when i wrote this blog. I knew this would happen coz i really miss Cody!!!!
