Zynamic Gala: November 2007

Banana - Laxative or Costive?

Date : Friday, November 30, 2007
Time : 8:44 AM

Its gonna be a nice day watsoever.

I got a red apple from vyvy early in the mornig and then the cute lil' boxes made by Carmen's daughter. Oh my, i m such a blissful damsel wif u gals ard =D

Well.. this is totally unrelated, but somehow gotta share my ponder here.
Vyvy is having her first constipation in her life.. ever since she took the banana(s) from the mkt last thursday. So... we were just jokingly pointed out aint bananas help the body to detox, Suely overheard our conversation and gave us an astonishing look.

"Oh no gals.. you all should not eat banana. Banana is bad.. Banana makes you to tighten not to let go!!"

Oops.. in my whole life i thot banana is the best natural laxative other than papaya??!!
I decided to do a survey among the brazilians and to my surprise the result is doubtfully assertive. So now i m totally confused , does banana act as a laxative or a costive?

Traffic to Rio is really bad..

Every morning we are stuck in the traffic congestion on the bridge which links up Niteroi and Rio. Boss often jokes that there is already plenty of 'jam' and all we need is a loaf of bread then we can hv our breakfast in the car.

When the traffic situation is dat bad, we need to find some entertainment. Saw this billboard commercial advertisement on the way to office. Kekeee.. gonna buy tons and tons of this club social biscuit back if its really effective. ö

"Don't be afraid of me, don't be afraid to open up to me.

Give me a chance to care for you, love you and protect you.

Give me a chance to make you happy everyday.

Give me a chance to be by your side no matter what happen."

The worst sorethroat ever

Date : Monday, November 26, 2007
Time : 9:58 PM

It just wont go away!!!!!!!
It has been like wat?! A week ored??
And Geezz..... i start to think its more than a sorethroat!! It must be some evil throat biting virus, trying to build their cosy sleazy nest inside my throat. WAAAH!!!!!

Suely, my brazilian colleague decide to roleplay as my personal GP.
Except for a stethoscope, she got everything a doctor needs - the prettiest smile and the gentlest tone one could ever imagine.
My sweet GP prescribed me some pills and lozenges for me, and i half-heartedly surrendered under her charmingly smile and that sincerest caring look in her eyes. Lets just hpe those green pills do help, then i could finally swallow my own saliva with that heart-piercing pain NOMORE!!

Saturday Luncheon

Date : Saturday, November 24, 2007
Time : 6:06 PM

Went lunch with some Brazilians colleague at the newly opened bistro located in the famous Niteroi Contemporary Art Museum on Saturday.

That gotta be the longest luncheon i ever attended. The whole lunch took me 4hrs!!! From twelve thirty to four.. We spent one hr sitting in the restaurant waiting for everyone's arrival, the next two and the half hr eating, drinking, laughing and chit-chatting( Well.. when i said chit-chatting, i actually meant THEY are chit-chatting in Portuguese, while Ivy and I listened in ~~complete puzzle~~ awe), and when everybody finally decided they had talked their hearts all out, filled their stomach all full, drank to their bladder almost burst, we called for the bill AND spent the next half an hr waiting for the waiter swayed gracefully across the room to hand us our damages. By the time, i reached my lil' apartment, its already dinner time nono.

ARRRGGGHHH!!!!!!! I m deadbeat by now and i can assure u.. its even tiring than shopping non-stop for four nice consecutive hour. Picture to be loaded soon.. i m in serious need of rest now. (X_X)

Post entry Update:

Here're the pictures i promised, u go!

I hate it when u makes me cry..

Time : 10:16 AM

I hate it when u say thing so bluntly , that it brings my tears back..
I hate it when after all these years., u are still the one who touches my heart..
I hate it when I went round and round the carousel, u are still the one that stays ..
I hate it when I m overseas, I lose all the protective shell and get emotional easily..
I hate it when u ask me to look into my heart coz I dun want to know who I’m gonna see…

In Rio again

Date : Friday, November 23, 2007
Time : 9:44 PM

Guess it does make sense when people says absence makes the heart grow fonder.
After six months, Rio seems to be a better place than previously. Perhaps it's just me and my emo.. I mean, afterall I'm here for a short assignment for 1 month, and the whole trip seems more like a business trip rather than few years exile now. Haha.. I m not saying I had a bad time previously, but you know.. its just DIFFERENT.

Touched down on Wednesday nite and we went to office on Thursday morning. It wasn't a tough task for me as I cant get to sleep due to jetlag. Stayed awake all nite long watching the sky turned from nite to dawn without anyone sharing the beautiful scene thou..

The traffic situation is getting worse. We have to leave for work earlier and reach home later due to the terrible traffic congestion along the bridge across Niteroi and Rio. More and more people shifted to Niteroi as its safer and simpler, a better city to stay compare to Rio. Absurd i know it is, but i suddenly felt COE & ERP system could be a smart system to be implemented afterall.

Got Ivy, a colleague of mine coming along with me this time. She will be here for 2 yrs to accomplish her expediting task for the newly signed project. Hence part of my job is to familiarize her with the environment and prepared her for the seemingly adventurous 24 mths ahead. I had gone thru this period before and i can pretty much understand how she must hv feel. It wasnt easy for me when i first came to this absolutely mysterious samba land. Culture shock, homesick, language barrier, work related problems and so on.. Haiz.. i can only spend a month with her, pretty limited things/experince i can actually pass to her within this short span of time. Hopefully she could adapt to the new environment soonest.

Flying yet again..

Date : Friday, November 16, 2007
Time : 10:38 PM

=( Just got back from HongKong-the fragrance harbour, yet i was told to fly to Brazil within the next few days.

It has been a hectic year with hell lot of flying.. As good as it might seems, the past few months were actually quite exhausting. Like the captain who hates the sea, I actually kinda hate traveling despite the fact that I have spent most of time involving constant movement.

Lets just hope the coming year i can spend more time here with my dearest family, friends and Zico, and also more blogging. I hv got so many pictures piling up.. so many stories to tell and i just dunt hv a hella one/two hr to blog. Thats kinda frustrating and sad to say i gotta signed off here.

xoxo and take care till we see each other again.
Love, Zee

.... no more dreadly and dull straight long lock, hehe.. i m now officically blessed wif lightly bob short hair on my tiny lil' head.

Ask me how does it feels?? It feels like a weight has been taken off shoulder!

Looks chic, less shred but the only cons: Now i gotta report to my 'Groomer' as often as Zico does. In fact, this is my second cut within this month, I bidded farewell with my long hair last mth, and this time rd, got it trimmed to even shorter length. =) aha, i think i kinda addicted to cut it short now!
