BUFFED NAILS

Hi Peepoz…. Have been so overjoyed with the FA Cup Final results.. gosh… It better be Barca to take the cup than having to let Redz take the cup… Good play by Xavi, Messi n Puyol. I reckon that the Man of the match shd be given to Puyol. HIs hardwork had brought Barca this far.Not forgetting Alvas in my mind too… 3 good years of taking the cup.. BARCA ROCKZ!

Anyway thats just a small highlights abt footy! BUt coming back to my topic.. which wasnt footy but it was all about nails…. I just wana talk about how to groom ur nails…. Alot women i have taken noticed that they love having long, pontiyank nails.. which is extreme to the level of looking bewitched! hahaha… sorry for the ppl whom i broke ur heart.. but u guys deserve to have that glory name! I reckon that women should always have their nails trimmed n buffed in a very neat way. coz the first thing that man see in us is our hygiene.

i deem that having french nails is the best. I am not refering to the fake ones. As u all know i hate being faky… i give myself to being original!!! (but i do know sum unoriginal souls who love faking to be like me!) I must also mention that many indian women whom are on the darker side of the shade.. love pampering themselves with colours like Bright pink, purple.. but they fail to remember that it makes them look even darker. with those kinda fingers that has terrible black shades n lines… it doesnt make it any attractive.. but simply pukish!!!!

Having long nails can never be tolerated. I mean being indians .. we practice to eat with our hands.. how on earth can some ppl have that scrowny ugly long nails and handle their food with? isnt that so disguesting? i wld never allow anyone kinda gender with that kinda of nails to handle my kitchen….

Thank god i go natural with no shades and just some base on my nails. Many have complimented that if i had french nails on… Coz my nails look so white and shinny. Many aussies here love my nails.. they say that i buff it good n well that it looks so presentable. I dont just say in words that “i am a simple person who leads a simple life!” Preach what u practice! I dont say it words.. but my actions speak a thousand! For those disgusting pontiyanks out there … my theory is … invest on good manicure sets.. if u cant.. save n head to the nail parlour… they will do a good job if u still want ppl to accept food from ur hands!!!!!!!!!!

Monkey See Monkey Do. Unoriginal Sin!.

Hey peeps….Its been eons since i last wrote on my blog! yesh i have been on a silent retreat!! * yeah for like real!!* Cant imagine myself being silent even for a split second…. gosh!!! Just have been a busy bee with work and blar blar!!!

Night was falling. The sun disappeared below the horizon and the sky turned dark . It had just finished raining and i spotted a rainbow right outside my room window. With a soothing song playing right behind me and the room being filled with cold silence i am writting this blog….

Let me just say something a head of time before you start to question why I’m doing all of this on the account of seemingly one individual. What is being original all about? I think i have always stated on my blogs that being creative is the best thing u can do for yourself.. I have decided to take it upon myself to type all of this out because I am irritated by the subject, the ignorance, and the hypocracy. It is also because I feel that some things, just need to be said. If you don’t plan on reading, then don’t bother commenting. That may seem a bit harsh, but to me that is just being respectful. Thank you.

Being innovative is something that has to come in you and not from others. What is it with some deprived individuals that by doing the exact likeness of that someone will bring you far or make it look like its been created by thyself?

Le me give u a scenario… A is someone who loves the artistic world and he is always creating something new for himself with his bright ideas and posting it out for people to appreciate his thoughts, reflections, judgements. But there comes B who is not willing to cultivate his own ideas and he does the duplicity of A. From head to toe i would say. There are some obvious examples of how this particular individual tried to do such.word to word, actions to actions, likings to likings, styles to styles!!!….

People recognise you for your orginality… Not for your unreal actions… I strongly believe that “B” is very much fascinated with “A”… Spellbound to “A’s” Surrounding, lifestyle, A’s Likings, A’s actions, performance and the list goes on… ”If you create your own characters, you are definitely original.”

You can never be ‘A”! Coz it takes only one to be “A” and another to be a “B” Be yourself and people will love you for that. Stop that Copyright thingy.! Guess these folks out there have not been well thought of being unique! Hopefully turning into a new leaf will do good for the affected souls!!! I have got only one thing to say…

All things original are created, but not all that is created is original!

Buju is very much missed!

I was organising my pic folder in Facebook… having my earfones plugged into my ears n there came the next song…. ” Oru theivam thantha poovae…. from kannathil muthamittal…. i broke into a pool of tears….. the thought of my little one… The amount of absence in mua heart … my heart is so heavy wen i tink abt this little love !

I miss my buju’s smell, his voice, his hugs, his calls…. they way he calls me” BA!” (naan thuki valartha thuyaram nee) he was the biggest joy of love when he came into this world… everyday we will head to dad’s room just to feel his small toes n his thick hair….. everyday i wld whisper to him that i wan him to grow faster so that i can see him crawl…. After kishanth grew to crawl, it was so touching to see him crawl the min he hears my heels at the doorway… he starts to crawl towards the gate blabbering in his baby language to carry him….

When he start to put up his 1st few steps… it was another step of happiness for me.. coz i cld dump that heavy pram which cost 300 bucks (thanks to chechi) i could just take him wherever i wanted… To the best of my knowledge ..i was always the babysitter.. coz he was way too attached to me … so d only person who cld nurture him after his mummy … was me!

There was never a day i have not seen him during my working moments. even my staff loved him. i wld take him to office n he wld sit quietly on my table.. all i had to do was just give me some pens n paper n he wld sit there scribbling for hours till i got my work done. He was the fav in my office. they all call him d handum hunk! Everyone gves him credit saying that he is a very well mannered boy who is very obident n all the good stuff goes abt him!

Buju is such a bright boy….just speaking to him over the fone.. he told me that he passed with flying colours for his exam… he is such smartie! i still rem taking him to my office family nite to naight safari at the age of 3 n all my frens were flabbergasted that he knew all the animals in the zoo….. even sum adults didnt even know what a otter was.. n my little one said it so loudly that it was an OTTER! i was so very proud of him… not forgetting once we were in the car n dad was sending a fren of ours back home … that lady in the car was telling “look outside its so smoky!” then my little one who was then 2 years old.. turned around n told the lady that its not smoky .. its FOGGY! hahahahhaahahha

The command of english is suberb! During his preschool at saradha … i rem we were celebrating his bday .. n i was kinda running late after my tv shoot n got to his school 3omins late n he insisted to his teacher n mum that he wanted to wait for me to get there so that he cld start his celebration… he is such a sweets!!

i cant wait till nxt year to see him.. hopefully daddy takes him to aussie on his next school vacation so that i can just hug n sleep with him… i miss the moments where i got him dressed into his pyjamas and powdeed him from head to toe and we wld literally jump into bed n read story books n he wld only get into my arms after i start singing the song “oru theivam thantha poovae!” n fall asleep on my chest ! my baby! my sonnu!!!! chechi miss u very much… way too much for u to know… i LOve u n u are the nxt best thing i have apart from amma n jaanz… i love u to bits!!!!! enn vaalu! enn kishaanthu! Chechi sayang!!!! muack muacks.. bites to his fat chubby hands n thoppai!!!

“Mother’s Day” Scripture

On a sunny chilly day.. i am writing this post with my mouth filled with cadbury’s mini eggs… The feeling of the chocz melting down in ur mouth is so caramia!!!! Talking about sweet thinkos… What can be more sweeter than our mum? Yeah.. this is சமர்பனம் for mua amma!!!

Mother’s love is so hard to explain. Its a divine love which you can never find it. Having a partner and loving him/her is way different from having to love ur mum.. Who bore u for 9mths… Goes through thick and thin just to bring u to this beautiful world… Who carrys the burden .. or i wld say the weight of the baby…. not just for 1 or 2 days … but for count of 9mths… Its a task that daddys out there can never go it…

I recall so many beautiful and unforgettable moments where my darlin mummy… gets into our room and heads up to us .. slowly stroking our heads… massaging our legs.. and whispering into our ears and telling us that its time for wakie wakie… The morning is all so bloomed by just smelling her … Mummy’s hair all so wet and tied into a princess hairstyle…. her hair with the nice aroma of sambarani…Wearing the long butterfly dress…. Her forehead filled with kunguma pottu…. That twinkling eyes of hers…. Can make anyone melt…

Never a day my mum has gone without feeding us… She makes it a point to feed us till today. But my mum says that we best eat when she feeds us. I am not in denial to that degree… coz i must admit that i eat more than usual only if amma feeds me…I still have down pat the flashes where mum also makes it a point ot shower especially e tilli was 11.. i know i was all grown and blar blar.. but mum always said that i am the baby of the house and that her baby hasnt in her vision….Mum was our teacher…our guru… She was always teaching us to sing devotional songs, play the veenai… She always shared the sentiment that she never had the chance to be a classical dancer.. so she always dreamt of us being dancers. She enrolled us into The fine arts… That was her biggest achievement i wld say… She always walks with her head and chin up whenever she pays a visit to school… When teachers always had good feedback about us… When we came back with trophies after all that competition that she enrolls us with… I remember .. Whenever we had gathering… She made it a point for us to sing songs .. relatively if it was a house warming .. we had to sing songs in connection with house warming.. if there is a newborn baby .. we had to welcome the small one with a song…

I think of all of us curled up together with amma on the couch when we would watch movies together and end up talking about life and our dreams. I think of every hug, kiss, and every “I love you” she has said to us…

Mum was Hitler in her own way.. She was very stern about mannerisms, behaviour, Respect for the elders…. Give n take and the list goes on…. She always tells chechi & muaself that respect is sumtin that we should earn and we shd give…. Mummy was one good soul who does not place herself first. Her priority was always us.. She selects the best clothes for us.. That whenever we wore sumtin nice.. ppl will come up to us n ask us where we got out suits from… SHe always has the best taste for us.. Whenever we outshine in our schoolwork… she rewards us with KFC and not forgetting Toys’rus… Amma always say this.. that chechi n muaself are her 2 eyes… We are her precious gems….Amma was never a mother..she was more than a mum.. She more of a best friend whom we share everythin and anithin with her. that goes for her too.. She always says that we are her besties….

Sometimes we all know n learn that somthings are not meant to be together.. Not untill my parents were divorced.. That was really very agonizing for me.. especially me …It was hard to accept that the custody went to dad and not mum…But we grew to be better people.. My sista n i told ourselves that we will make mum proud by exceliing well in our lives. As said.. we did… We made mum n dad proud in many ways….

Up to date.. i have never gone a day without having to talk to amma.. She is my inner shine… What will i do without her? I am verymuch closer to her as … i am the spoilt one.. and amma adores me and she says that i am the Kadai Kutty fo the house!!! Everytime chechi n i have squabbles and all.. Mum is like a button.. she puts things together again…

Mom, you’re a wonderful mother,
So gentle, yet so strong.
The many ways you show you care
Always make me feel I belong.
You’re patient when I’m foolish;
You give guidance when I ask;
It seems you can do most anything;
You’re the master of every task.
You’re a dependable source of comfort;
You’re my cushion when I fall.
You help in times of trouble;
You support me whenever I call.
I love you more than you know;
You have my total respect.
If I had my choice of mothers,
You’d be the one I’d select!

No matter how hard many try to be like my mum.. There will never be another one to be born just like my mum…. She is god’s sent gift to us.. I CAN LOVE YOU WITH UNCONDITIONAL LOVE ALL OF MY LIFE AND I WILL ALWAYS.. I will Love u till my last breathe அம்மா!

என் அன்பு முத்தங்கள் அம்மா !என்றும் அன்புடன் உங்கள் மகள் குட்டி சுபாஷினி

Exactly 365 days





As off today its been extactly since 1 year that i have left NCR….(30th April) Jeez… time flies so very fast that its been a year…. I must share the good old memeories of NCR….Just reflecting back to the moments where i shared the good, bad and the ugly!!!

I got attached to NCR sometime back in Sept 7th 2002 after 3 rounds of interview. I still recall those moments where i had to attend 3 rounds of interview just to get the job in hand. I remember angela testing the knowledge of my mandarin as i mentioned on my resume that i am Bilingual. Having that sick felling on the pit of ur stomach and questions keptdrilling on my thick skullif i will be qualified for the job… That evening when i came back home i recived a call from My Reginal Manager Angela that i was selected and that i could join the company on the 7th Sept. It was one of my happiest moments.

I joined NCR as Customer Service Management for the Incidenent Management when i was 20. I was the youngest to have joined the MSC. I rem all my staff calling me “NCR Baby” I was attached to DBS bank for 1 week on job training and to see how the banks handle the ATMS, cashflows,engineers that handled the machine and of coz i had to be well trained on how to rectify the machines.

to monitor the ATM network and ensure all the incidents are addressed or attended to promptly. The primary interface is to work directly with all the customers both internal and external. To ensure the customer’s entitlement of services, remotely that has not been escalated. To also understand the problem and help facilitate the resolution of a problem. Other responsibilities were to manage and minimize ATM downtime, Ensuring incidents which require attention. Co-ordinate and dispatch second level maintenance. Generate customer-related reports to customers. Ensuring that replenishment for overnight incidents is completed by stipulated time. To be responsible for day to day operations of the team and to take on a supervisory role to ensure efficient delivery of services. Expected to ensure the committed service level arrangements with its customers are met. Ensure correct and timely closure and completion of all incidents, solving problems, operating with known solutions and lastly participate in planning and implementing personal and career development activities for the team.

Sometime back in April 2004 i was promoted to handle a different job where my boss felt that i would fit the bill perfectly. I was appointed as a Cash Management Analyst to manage the loading and collection for DBS ATM/CAM ATM network. To also produce replenishment schedules for loading/collection. Review the forecast performance of each cash points to improve the accuracy of the cash points and network movement. Reducing the loading trips despite there was an increase on the machine network/withdrawal/depository. Increasing the ATM cash utilization. Submitting the daily cash replenishment schedules to Cisco on the stipulated timing. Liaising with Cisco to fulfill day-to-day cash operations. Modify cash point’s parameters when necessary. Add/Delete & maintain database for al the cash points movements. Reconciliation of Cisco and DBS Statement cash balances. Ordering cash from BCCS and also initializing host figures.

My responsiblities grew more day by day. There was so much of calculations to do, analysing the cahsflows for individual atms wasnt that easy. We had more that 1000 atms around singapore just for DBS banks. SO just imagine the work load that evolves around me. But on the other hand the working hours were so flexible as i only got to work 3 days in a week coz i use to commit myself at work for solid 14hours just to finish up my work. That gave me a better chance to have 4 days to rest. It was very much a challenging job that i never failed to receive the Excellence award yearly. I was the only one in MSC team getting that award every other year… I must thank angela for giving me the oppotunity to further my studies and accomadating to my school schedules.

On the other hand i know i use to suck and drain my customer care agents blood by chasing them for the ATMS and engineers to bring up the machine so that the uptime will be good. My handful of agents were very much supporting team of members. They never said no when i asked them to generate the reports and blar blar… I miss all those dinner and dance events we use to have , The recreation club, My office gym that i was there every other day and skipping my lunch just to work out.. Showering there…. My locker room.. which is my rest room for me to snore.. the kopitiam where i get my mornin bfast for myself and the rest.. The carpark and the staircase for our gossip sections… The pantry for all those delicious yummylious food stored… My word station.. My table filled with Pictures, Flowers, teddies,.. My personal cupboard where i store all the tidbits….

I miss the attention of my secret admirers sending me bouquets and my receptionist calling me on my direct Fone jus to inform me of the flowers….. Good solid 7 years of dedicating myself to NCR.. World regonised company…! I am very much proud that i grew from this company and i have learned so many tings within the 7 years of dedication….


It was a very excruciating moment for me to tender my resignation.. To the degree that both my bosses didnt want to accept my letter. I had to explain my situation and my plans for the future. It was hard to leave a job that was paying me so well.. and i was getting a promo .. but i decided to leave the offer… Thanks for the wonderful moments NCR….. MY email Sign off…..

Cheerio,

Do u use repeated pet names for your lover?

Halo amis!!!! I was conducting a survey on Facebook and it went pretty well. I had a very good response from my FB friends. You see thats why everyone has decided to stick with Facebook coz there is so many acivities to do! I am glad that i fixed myself with Facebook.

Well.. Today’s topic is with regards to my survey that i conducted.

Would you call your current love the same lovey dovey way that you use to call your EX?

This is a topic that i very mcuh wanna discuss. This has been biting me for a very long time. When you are in a deep relationship, majority of indivuals love calling their other half names like”Sweetheart, Baby, Honey and blar blar…I totally defend myself and other’s out there that its someone special in your life and that you want to cherish them with ur lovey dovey names….

But here is the question….. Do u name or call your current boyfriend the same way that you use to call your EX? Ouch!!!!!!!!! Now this is my argument for today….Take a quick glace on the comments that i received from facebook:

Killawill William at 10:45am April 23
i dunno that but i know one thing u r my partner in crime always and i mish u
Rathika Devi at 11:45am April 23
Hmmm… personally i won’t… It wld feel too weird… the more common terms like darl / baby… i wld… But the ones that were invented for that one guy.. i wouldn’t use it on anyone else….
Geraldine Tan at 12:15pm April 23
i dont think i will, i would just change names of them, i wont stick to one name, fr example dear. SO BORING. i dont call them nice names, i call them sluts, OEI, bitches and stuffs.
Geetanjali Bathumalai at 12:22pm April 23
ohh dear !! very gd topic!!! … my Opinion wld be .. NO!!… i mean maybe the normal words like “dear” darlin” wld be ok ….but not the special names u used to call ur EX…… if u do then it only shows tat u have not gotten over ur EX…….
Cheryl Li at 12:50am April 24
surely not… wud bring back too many bad memories!!! kekek.
Majority of them come in common terms with me that they will not regard or call their current
boyfriend the way they use to call their EX. I believe that is very insulting to the current lover you are with.
But of coz some folks out there can speak out and they reckon that when they are in a new relationship
which is correspondent to being in a total new life. I personally feel that you should never bring your past memories to the
new-fangled relationship you are with. Everyone is special in their own way.. Everyone deserves to be treated in a lovely way
Like what my friend geetz says in the comment box…Calling the same name means that you have yet gotten over your EX… I
solidly deem that when you utter the same name for your current lover….Doesnt it bring back the memories of ur EX? There are so many names to be called? So y use the same old names on your partner? That is very much disgusting….. If u are in more than 1 relationship .. does it allow you to call your 5 other lovers the same way ? Gosh!

Monkey See Monkey Do. Unoriginal Sin!.
