On the last day of 2008, my boss gave me a work appraisal for 2008. Well, the results were better than i expected.
I was given OUTSTANDING for my overall work performance and in the individual items like knowledge of work process etc etc, i got Very Good for most of them and had Outstanding for 2 items. So at the end of the appraisal, i was told that i was being lined up for a promotion.
Usually, i will be doing cartwheels round the house, drinking myself silly in celebration but it was not the case. I just smiled and thanked him for his high praises bcos he also informed me that there will be a pay increament freeze !
NABEH.. KNNCCB.. When i get promoted, there is a pay freeze. Wah liew. Usually promotion + pay increament will be about 6% – 10% but i get nothing :’(. He said that my big boss will fight for me for the pay increament but he cannot promise anything.
And the worst part of it, he also told me that there might not be variable bonus this year too !!! Wah LAU !!!! *bang head on table*
At the start of season, all i wanted was a sustained title challenge, successful passage into the CL knockout rounds and that we won’t drop points to the big 4 esp Chelsea and Man U
But in honesty, Liverpool has exceeded all my expectations..
We beat Man U at home. Woo hoo
We beat Chelsea away. Woo hoo x 2
We drew with Arsenal away. Woo hoo x 3
We went thru to the CL knockout rounds and topped our group. Our reward was meeting Real Madrid and what a match that will be.
And we are TOP of the league with three points ahead of Chelsea.
Of cos, we dropped silly points at home but hey, our closest rival couldn’t take advantage of it. Luck or our closest rival are succumbing to the pressure of chasing Liverpool or the “little” teams has finally figured out a way to hold the big teams back? Maybe it is a mixture of all 3 factors but there is no denying that we are up on top on merit.
It has been an exciting season so far with our brilliant comebacks and it has been great to see youngsters like Ngog, Spearing, Kelly, Darby, El Zhar, Insua make their marks in the first team. Hopefully, they are able to replace the fringe players(like Pennant) in the near future and save $$$ for the club.
With Torres coming back, i hope that he remains fit and score as many goals as he did last season. The team has shown great resilience and now, it is time to add some class to the resilience and continue to dominate at the top of the league !
Walk on !
LFC 0 – 0 West Ham
Blackburn 1 – 3 LFC
PSV 1 – 3 LFC
LFC 2 – 2 Hull
Arsenal 1 – 1 LFC
LFC 3 – 0 Bolton
Newcastle 1 – 5
:)
Summary:
I felt that we should have gone for the win against a 10-men Arsenal side but w/o Rafa at the sidelines and it was an away game, a draw would suffice. but all in all, it has been a fantastic month for Liverpool. We are now 3 points ahead of Chelsea!
More of the same in 2009 !!!!
Friends, food, RAIN, BBQ and a free photoshoot. A pity that Wifey had to take care of Reyes so she couldn’t be in most of the pics.
What more can we ask for?
Sometimes the simplest things in life are the best things in life

Poor boy got sick on xmas eve so he couldn’t enjoy the celebrations.
It was tough for us as it was for him bcos we had to feed him medicine and every cough will jerk us out of bed.
We brought him to see PD at Tampines, GP at Thomson and then PD at Tampines on 24/12, 25/12 and 26/12 and the total cost was about $200. Oh well, as long as he gets better, the money doesn’t matter.

Still so cute !
Hopefully after this time, he will remain strong and don’t fall sick liao.
