Office Prank War

It all started with an innocent Facebook photo tag to my fellow colleagues 😇 and this is the infamous photo...


I tagged 8 people (MX, HT, SA, EL, EM, MJ, JK and PT) and posted this photo just before going to sleep a little past midnight and all of them responded to it... two of them actually reacted to it in the middle of the night while I was already in La La Land. Instead of giving Likes 👍 and Hearts ❤ for it, they all united and vowed to get back at me for this Cheese On A Cracker post.

A week after that in December last year, I had to go outstation for work which coincided with the office Christmas party. And while I was slaving myself away in Ipoh, these adorable colleagues of mine (HT, EM, EL, SA and they also recruited SM) came up with a revenge plan during the party.

They had gift exchange during the party and had a lot of leftover gift wrapping papers which they decided to put into creative use. When I came back on the following Monday, they surprised me with a BIG Christmas present...


They gift wrapped my workstation using all the leftover gift wrapping paper!!😱

They even wrapped my chair and my calculator! And the pillow box you see in the photo, it's to make their masterpiece less visible to others. Here's the behind the scene footage...


Then my pay back chance came when HT went to Australia for her week long holiday. EM decided to team up with me to start Project Snow. While most of them were away for the long Christmas and New Year holiday, we brought snow to Bangsar South. However, snow fell only on HT's workstation...


There was even an appearance of Frosty, the snowman! Since there were only two of us, me and EM, we had no manpower for the behind the scene footage. But there was a reaction video...

After all the giggles, laughter and snow shoveling, we went back to work. Then came lunchtime and we all went out lunch together in my car. I had an appointment to go out to at 4pm, so I packed my stuff and went down to the carpark. And as I was walking towards my car, I was greeted with the sight of this...


At that moment did I realize why they insisted that I drive my car out for lunch... so that they know where I parked my car. And I thought that they were missing from their workstations to attend to some meeting/discussion with the boss but in fact, they were doing this. They even used materials from the earlier prank.

And here's the behind the scene footage...


They even took a team photo 😡... And yes... EM decided to rejoin them for this.
Just look at their happy and accomplished faces!!

So after this, HT and I sat down and evaluated the whole situation. We sensed something was not quite right and soon realized that someone's been sneaky and conveniently played both sides of the field! Here we are "prank"ing our ass off and this little someone was fanning both sides of the flame.

And so they say this was me and HT
We both called a truce planned for our ultimate prank on this Little Miss Sneaky, EM. Soon we found the perfect timing to initiate our master plan... during our week long out of office meeting!

During meetings, we had little teasers like putting rocks into her handbag and laptop bag and also cleaned Lala shells into her handbag. And here she is smiling happily with her rocks...


She thought that was all to our revenge plan and we waited for the grand finale while she was busy presenting her work slides on the last day. We decided to wish her a very Happy Chinese New Year...



During tea break, we made an excuse about packing some stuff back into our cars in order for us to capture her reaction to this...


With this prank, it ended our back-to-back office prank war... for now! What are friends in office for if there are no pranks involved? *wink*

Looking at my last post dated 31 December 2014 only did I realize that I have neglected my blog for 2 years now. Going through some of my previous posts reminded me the fun I had blogging and why I started it in the first place. It's no point explaining why because it would only be excuses after excuses. So here I am ready to start fresh, fuelled by the good memories of my previous posts and my current determination to blog again.

I've started my food blog titled Fantastic Food and Where To Find Them at the start of 2017. The title was inspired by the movie Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them. 


I decided to start my own food blog because I felt cheated by the reviews of many blog sites on one particular restaurant which only resulted in bad food and bad experience, thus spoiling my hubby's birthday celebration. Well, for food stuff, I'll leave it to my other blog.

In these 2 years I've been spending a lot of my time with my family and friends... people who REALLY matter in our life.

Some of the main spices of my life
As I grow older, I learn to accept the fact that sometimes things happen and not everything is in our favour. So instead of wasting my energy being upset, I might as well focus on things that makes me happy. It can be as simple as eating your favourite food to going for a bicycle ride. If reading a book while snuggling up in bed could make you happy and takes your mind off some a**hole at work, do that. 

Time passes irregardless you are happy or sad. So why not choose to spend your time being happy than wasting it on being angry, sad and miserable.


Be mindful with the words that we speak as it may be the last words. What if something happens to your child and your last words to her was... "Why did you dye your hair to this colour?! It looks horrible!" or "Only 2 As? That's not good enough"? I'm sure you'll be banging your head on the wall and wishing that you had said "I love you", "I'm blessed to have a daughter/son like you" or just something good along that line. And as for children, would you rather have "I hate you!", "You are so annoying" or just something unpleasant to be the last words to your parents? Why be so trivial over small matters when we ourselves cannot guarantee that we'll wake up to see tomorrow?

What I'm trying to say here is that we only live once and there's no such thing as rewind and redo. So, don't do or say things that you might regret later. After documenting my 100 Days of Happiness, I learnt that there's definitely one thing in everyday that you can be happy or thankful about. It can be as simple as coming home to the sight of your comfortable bed. And when you focus on that and draw energy from that, it will makes everything else seems unimportant.

For now I'll sign of here and I promise that I'll be back soon... definitely not 2 years later.
