Just came back from a lovely late night snack with the bf. We went to a place called The Hot Chocolate Cafe near Damansara Heights. It’s an old place but I have not been there before. We had a nice dessert. Something different from what we normally come across in other cafes.

This week I am drowning of work in the office. Our new hotel is opening soon in East Malaysia. No, I don’t want to stay there. To me, a holiday needs to be pampering and moderately luxurious because I don’t get to go on one that often. At the same time, all the hotels are sending in their new layouts and designs. Honestly, I won’t be touching that until the new hotel is launched.

On top of that, I have some online system going live for the shopping mall. Not forgetting Megasale starts tomorrow. None of the mall has supplied me with the materials to be published online. Friday morning I will have to rush to put up the ad on websites and touch screens. GREAT!

Why WordPress week? My boss has given me another assignment. Something close to our department, so it is very important. The idea came after our meeting with an agency for another website. They had proposed to use WordPress as the platform. In the entire meeting room, only the presenter and myself blog. We both use WordPress.

I know the how-tos to use the platform. So the boss asked me if I can use it to build one for this pet project of his. WordPress or not, I’m the one who has to do the job anyway. I am all for using a CMS platform, so that someone else will be responsible for putting in the contents. My job will be to make sure the website functions and looks the way it is suppose to look.

So I’ve been busy working on the theme and flow. Almost done on this part.

Next comes to setting up a workstation to run WordPress on server environment. I have not done this before but I know it can be done.

Part of me is glad I have a chance to do something new based on what I have picked up on my own. At least I have something to say for the appraisal before year end. I foresee this is the direction to go for the company’s website as well.
