Grrrrooooom

Lately, haven't had much time to update my blog. Updating my blog in the weekdays is almost out of the question. Weekends are more for leisure which means that i should stay away from PCs and just chill. Fortunately, this week i am allocating a bit of time to store a small part of my life online. Work as usual is a never ending process and i'm startin to feel the pressure at work, not because of work but something else.

A few weeks ago had the privelliage to attend a grooming course and it was kinda fun and informative to be learning so much things to enhance ourselves. The only thing was i think that it has made me a little more aware of things to lookout when dressing and therefore more self-conscious.

During the workshop we were literally being accessed, the guys were more harsh when we had to stand in front individually and the trainer will judge from head to toe. At the same time, you have all the colleagues looking at you and you know at that very moment people are judging you. Well, actually it wasn't as bad as it sound cause' we're all pretty close to each other and we joke about everybody so in a way it was entertaining.

Some of the new things that i've learn is to know the difference between formal, semi-formal , smart casual and casual. For men's if you're wearing a long sleeve shirt with tie and tailored-pants, guess what? Your only categorized as SMART CASUAL. Well, you don't wanna know what is semi-formal and formal means. I wouldn't want to elaborate about the ladies dressing as it's far more complicated. One thing about ladies is that they are encourage to make-up to give a professional image and i do believe that should be the case at least a thin layer would be fine. :)

After the course i have decided to stick to some of the lessons that i have learned and i have to resist the temptation to roll up my sleeves and loosen my tie or going tie-less. That really sucks, but i really do need to get used to it. The worst part is i don't have much tie to choose from and i'm looking at those that will cost me about RM70-80bucks each and i need some time to accumulate a number of ties.

Alrighty, enough about me, just wanna wish my bro and sis congratz for winning RM30K lately.



Also, few days ago, sis just got to know that she is pregnant again. What a great month for her.


Till my next update, adioz
