9:55am的廉价航空公司航班飞往梳邦机场，既然是廉价航空嘛，就决定廉价到底！邻里短程巴士 – 地铁 （Woodlands – Cityhall – Tanah Merah – Airport T2 – Shuttle to Budget Terminal），看起来就是很复杂，但是还是决定试一试！
大清早6am起床7:11am踏出家门，准备到楼下乘搭短程巴士到去地铁，这也就是我恶梦的开始！等了10几分钟，巴士才慢慢的驶向已经人满为患的车站！巴士趟次不是应该更频繁吗？
好不容易到了地铁站，我这个“山龟”又被三条排队拿免费报纸的人群楞住了！三条队伍加起来足足有30公尺，何其壮观啊~ 回过神来，继续赶往月台搭地铁咯！在Cityhall转搭往机场方向的东西线后，路程算是完成一大半啦！原本就沾沾自喜的我在看到出口顶端的路线灯显示此列车将直接通往机场是更是乐翻了！应该不会有什么问题吧？指示等和广播都是明确提示列车是开往机场，应该不会错的！但是，当列车在离开Tanah Merah后竟然开往Simei! 指示灯也突然停止操作，广播也突然又车长口述前往Pasir Ris!怎么可以这样！晴天霹雳的我只好从Simei下车再往回搭，也耽误了将近20分钟…!!! 最后大约9:30am才到达廉价机场！也差赶不上班机！一趟小小的新加坡，也花了我将近2个半小时的时间！算了，以后还是花点钱搭德士吧！

重回牧场
11.01.2010
今天是咖哩小胖从回牧场的第一天，也是离开草原脱离吃草的日子的第一天！离开办公室生涯已经有14个月的我生活真的太不习惯啦！Official的工作时间是8:45am到5:45pm，虽然早上到办公室有岳父专车接送还得7am就出门，上班时间的交通特别繁忙，边堵边走也得将近8:15am才抵达工作地点！但是看在能够坐在车中舒舒服服的抵达而不需要赶巴士挤地铁也就忍耐着点吧！也许之前的工作地点的关系，一趟巴士就能直达公司，习惯了轻松舒适的上班方式，现在需要双倍的乘车时间，还真叫人吃不消！=(
办公室目前只有三人，总经理，业务助理还有财务。说好听点我就是这里的二把手咯！呵呵…(**臭美）没有啦！总公司在KL，目前正准备把KL的operation部门转移到新家坡来！办公室也即将装修扩充，并增聘员工。其实还蛮像当初刚加入前雇主是的情况！难道历史即将重演，又来个5年么？应该不会吧？！这回心中有数，希望慢慢筹划一步步迈向梦想！=)
下班回家的路途是心跳加速的，是精神紧绷的，是嫉妒疲倦的，也是令人气煞的！地铁人流的尖锋时段，已经习惯较慢生活节奏的我，似乎对周围上班族快速的步伐有点不知所措，人们不断从身旁擦肩‘呼啸’而过，渐渐的也不自觉的把步伐加快！
明天，办公室生涯的第二天，就得飞到KL总部接受培训，熟悉公司的运作并为接下来的交接做准备。一连4天的培训，也是婚后第一回离开wifey出远门，还真的舍不得neh~ :’(
老婆，老公不在时要照顾自己哦~

3Rs - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
People nowsaday are getting more aware of the environmental issues, global warming has been mentioned almost everyday through all kind of media, it's a hot topic today. However, the number of people who really put those idea into action are insignificant.
Governments are putting more effort to educate the public how recycle is important in the saving our gaia. However, the golden rules of waste management has been generally neglected by the public. The golden rules of waste management means 3R's - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
The sequence is much much more important because wastage come from getting something which you not really need (not a must). You can directly reduce your wastage by not consuming any things that are more than your basic needs. Yet, this is contradicting to the economy development. The deveopment of the country's economy comes from the vast consumptions from the consumer, this create faster pace of business activities, the effects of dollar multiplier are created and boost the economy. It's not likely to strike a balance between economic growth and saving environment because governments cannot afford to ask the consumer stop buying as they are the key to the economic growth. That's why you can only see all advertisement on media trying very hard to lure the buying sentiment of consumers and not persuading you to stop buying.
To reduce, try to differentiate a MUST and a NEED. Eating is a must to give yourself enery, of course, not eating excessively. A collection of branded bags is just a need (not necessary most of the time) which can be replace by one or two decent, durable bag which suit most of the occasions. Remember, every single thing around you are actually extracted from our mother earth's resources, are you fully ultilise them as a must to you? Uderstand the difference ad you will greatly reduce your wastage at the front line.
Reuse is the 2nd stage to avoid resources wastage, you definitely having something that are not using and kept for years, and end up throwing away or for recycle. Share it with the rest who might need it while you're not. Join the SgFreeCycle Group, to give away things you don't need, meantime, you might get things you want for free instead paying for a new one.
Recycle is the final stage before wastage, it should be done last after Reduce and Reuse. How frequently do you clear your rubbish bin, I believe the answer is at least once very 2 days for most household, and definitely is carried by a PLASTIC BAG, do you know the amount of one year rubbish of a household are more than enough to fill up your bathroom. Think twice before throwing your rubbish, some of it can be recycle effectively. You cn actually dispose your recyclable items through National Recycle Program.
Remember, a dirty product cannot be recycled and can contaminated the rest of the products in the bin, take a few extra minuted to rinse out containers and clean off food scraps, to help ensure the recycling process is a success.
Play your part a member of earth, the earth can survive without us, but we can't survive without earth.
