Consolidation of what happened in the last 18 days..


My last post was on 12th Dec.2005….I feel so ashamed of myself lor.. hahaha.. shucks..getting lazy..or rather busy. Wow..lots to update.. dunno where to start also..

Okie.went on a short trip to KL with Sharon san n zhe san and sherri san. Was so looking forward to mega kaimonoshimasu.. but the stuff there really not nice this time round.not much sales also… so the other only thing I can gush about is the….food. hah.. it was kinda de javu coz we went back to the same roadside stalls and ordered exactly the same dishes as the last time I went with zhe to KL in aug. but it was still oishii…so who cares.heh..

Once we reached KL, we headed straight to Coca to eat the steamboat buffet! Yummy.. Singapore’s Coca no buffet liao so thought we shall eat our fill there.. we paid like $22 for really lots of food..both cooked and uncooked food. If I were to go back KL again, it will be for coca.

Basically, I only remember the food in KL. Hahah.. my biggest shopping expenditure was on my brother’s and naz’s T shirts and 3 boxes of tau sar biah. Haha.. still managed to change ringgit back to sing$ lo…not bad.

When I was back from the trip, it was endless amount of systems training after work till 9pm..company catered dinner for everyone and got quite sick of the catered chap chai rice style of food…quite oily though they make sure they change the caterer everytime if there was any feedback about the food..well, at least that saved me dinner $$ for a number of days la. Tiring. So everyday I just come home and feel like nua-ing, stoning or just do stuff that doesn’t require much brain power. Ganbatte ne. next wed will be the last training session!! Yipppeeee.

Oh..had suki sushi with zhe,Sharon n naz on Christmas! Oishii.. oh my god..half my blog is about food!

Anyways, a quick fast forward to what happened today. We had a mini seminar today (yes…after work…again..everything is after work..no OT!!) with one of my colleague who was outstationed in China presenting the work progress there and a travelogue about places she visited during her stay. Ok..not particularly exciting but good to know kinda info. And the most exciting has to be how the session ended. We sang Auld Lang Syne to welcome the new year.. we held hands and made a huge distorted oval shaped circle and walked to our left while we sang the song.. and we sang it twice. It was really funny and I couldn’t stop laughing….just like everyone else.. haha.. but it seemed like people did enjoy it quite abit. Guess it must be the common exhilarating anticipation to welcome the new year.. in a bizarre way.

Resolutions for 2006? Hmm..
Top of the list would be to do more exercise..been slacking too much and eating too much chocs..
2nd would be to do constant self studying for my nihongo… which seemed highly unattainable but I shall try.
And 3rdly, to be able to find joy and satisfaction in whatever I do whether at work or at play.. abit vague..but well, that’s how I feel.haha

And a hope for the year? A very beauty pageant answer : World Peace. vv

what day was sat?? Sat was Mayday!~

Went to work early today hoping to clear some stuff remaining on Friday…colleague was on leave and got extra stuff to do. 8 hours simply isn’t enough. And I don’t mean it in a fun and I’m enjoying myself kinda way. Took the train and I intentionally chose a cabin with the most “hei1 she4 hui4” so that at 2 stations down they would all get off and hopefully I would be able to get a seat…and I did! Heh. ..was totally brain dead when I reached home.

Oh ya… I’m suppose to talk about the most happening concert of the year right… wu yue tian concert! Yeah… the concert started late and guess what time it ended. Almost midnight!! I was kinda disappointed coz there’re so many songs which I hope they would sing but they didn’t. like all the hokkien ones…ho umm ho, sim tiong bo but lang, I love u bo bang….. and they didn’t sing all those….sad x100. I thought the shi guang ji album was not very nice and they sang quite a number of songs from there.. deh. So that was a con of the concert. Me n ayu got a good seat I thought…quite centralized. And our view became even better after the 2 aunties in front of us left halfway though the concert. Hahhaha.. think they were deafened by all the screaming. Shin is as shuai4 as ever…and guai shou so cool…. Heh.. oh..there was this angmoh standing infront of us who was bobbing to the songs thru out!! See see… it’s difficult not to be attracted by mayday…heh.

I told naz I’ll finish like at 11pm..and I came out at 11.45pm..and the concert hasn’t really ended when I left! Mayday was singing their last song jue jiang…which I don’t really super dupa like…would have stayed if he sang I love u bo bang. Abit paiseh to make naz wait la…travel all the way from the west to the east then wait for like 1hour at the ulu dark carpark at expo. Haha..he complained that he nearly dieded from breathing in the monoxide from the aircon…. But the main point is he didn’t..so that’s good. Heh.

Oh my god….sharon san is back in singapore liao….. I miss u Sharon san! Let’s suki together! Before that, we must eat n shop in KL first!! Yeah!

9th Dec 05-GE Xmas gala @Legends


http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/bluewindsc/album?.dir=/1593

It turned out way more fun than I expected.. which is good! Heh.. yeah..i gotta dress up as Gaston, beauty’s admirer and suitor at GE’s xmas dinner fashion parade. Was complaining like crazy b4 that but I take it all back now…hehe… it was a lot of fun. A lot of laughter as well.

Yvonne auntie was acting as Beauty’s father Maurice, and oh my god.. don’t you think she look so cute! Look at her I want to laugh already.hahah… not to forget very onz, Beauty, auntie judy. I’ve never seen a more spontaneous auntie than her. Though we chose her to be beauty so that our show would be funny and that might just win us the top prize, she was so sporting and was so onz about choosing the nicest, most shiny and most beaded dress for herself. She even went to set-to her hair before the show,went facial and all. Kaoz. Hahaha.. can’t believe she’s so onz!! Ha.. Issac acted as the Beast and till now he’s still wondering whether it’s huo4 or fu2. hahha..coz he gotta fake-kiss Beauty on stage…not real kiss la..we even taught him how to use camera trick, to jie4 wei4..so that it looks real…hahah

Anyway, the organizers did put in a lot of effort into this event. The door gift was nice and each person has a polariod picture ticket which entitled them to 1 polariod pic with their fave Disney character. Heheh..cool huh. So we were like stars for the night.

Many people want to take pic with me lor coz they say I really look like gaston. Yeah..maybe I got an angular face and sharp nose, high cheekbones la.. quite androgynous lor like what my colleague said… anyways, the super La Bi Xiao Xing eyebrows is Yvonne draw for me one… so that I look more like a guy.

Lots of photo taking and hustle and bustle… prizes won ..but not by me.sighz. no luck. Was an eventful and enjoyable evening. Got to know the fun side of my colleagues too..coz usually they are staring at their comps keying in data, doing continuous processing work. ..just like moi. I can stare at the comp with heaps of paper infront of me, hours ticked away, without me realizing, it’s knock off time.

Do not be jealous but tomorrow will be even a more fun night… coz I’ll be with ashin………. Ok, naz, let me be crazy over mayday just tmw night…it’ll be over soon..trust me..heh.

Sunday 4th Dec-Potter saved my day~

.. my Sunday didn’t go too well. In fact, I felt the intense urge to blog about it so that I can “reminiscence” as I read back my blog 10 years later. People tend to remember unhappy things more and longer I feel. How true is that..errrr. okie..back to the topic.ahem.

Firstly, I got the exam timing mixed up. Supposed to be from 9.30am-12.45pm…but I thought it was from 9.45am to 12.30pm..best. if I remember the starting time earlier not so bad, at least I’ll be early for the exam. But I remembered the wrong n later timing.duhz. supposed to meet weilin at kembangan station at 8.30am so set alarm at 7am.. and of all things, my clock spoilt and time was stuck at 6.50am. so the next time I checked, it was already 7.40am..decided to sleep abit more and take cab to the place. Just as I dilly dally to get ready, I decided to check my exam voucher for the timing again just in case. And it was then I realized the test was suppose to start at 9.30..not 9.45. it was 9am and I was still at home. Super rushed like mad and can’t even take the breakfast I made.

When I was about to reach the school, there was a massive jam all the way.Apparently, the whole world took cabs to the school as it’s all the way at ulu pandan-upper change rd north. As if it wasn’t bad enough, the classroom chairs and tables macham for little kids, so bloody low and uncomfortable. As if it still wasn’t bad enough, the exam was super muzukashii!!! Ayu, confirm gotta take with you next year.haiz.

When the exam ended, a scene resembling somewhat like a stampede came into place. Hordes of students shuffled out to the pathetic bus stop to wait for 1 pathetic low frequency single deck bus-2 to go tanah merah station, which is supposedly the “nearest” mrt but it’s still like a good 20 min ride. The sun wasn’t too forgiving either. Couldn’t squeeze onto the 1st bus that came and stood there waiting in the scorching sun for the next.

The 2nd bus came but….it was FULL.some spoil market people walked up to the previous bus stop to take the bus lor. Dam. And when we decided to follow suit and walk to the earlier stop, the whole world also started to walk back up.urgh. hot hot.hot.

After what seemed like a 3km walkathon, we still didn’t see the bus stop. So we headed to another bus stop we saw not far away, and by the time we walked there, realized it was the wrong bus stop. Felt rich and we decided to hail a cab. And the cabs were all busy, hired or already occupied. Got money also don’t allow us to spend.haiz. So we end up walking further and finally got to the stop we wanted and squeezed packed ourselves up the bus. Great.! The air con’s spoilt.

Had booked Harry Potter at 2.35pm at PS..supposed to meet naz at 1.30…and at 1.30 I was still on the bus. Luckily, managed to reach PS at 2.10pm and rushed to breadtalk to buy bread so that we can eat in the theatre. Was so so hungry coz I haven’t eaten anything for the whole day.

Bought the popcorn combo set and at the entrance, the stupid guy stopped us from bringing the breadtalk in. shucks. Should have kept in my bag. Forgot. He asked us to leave the bread outside. So sorry but I wasn’t in a very good mood already and he did this at the wrong time. So I argued with him that I bought the popcorn from GV. He said ya, but I can’t eat the bread. I told him I’m going to eat it coz I’m very very hungry and I AM GOING TO EAT IT and I walked away. Naz agreed to leave it at the counter and asked me to pass him my bag. So he pretended to go to the counter and hid the bread in my bag before coming in. kaozzzzz… meaningless.

My god! Woke up on the wrong side of the bed lor. On a positive note, at least Harry Potter wasn’t too bad la.. though I always thought part1 was the best. Had dinner at KFC and proceeded to catch the a concert at The Esplanade. Was a wind instrument concert orchestra called “xxx goes pop”… I dunno how to spell.. gomen.heh. It was ok lor coz I’m not a big fan of instrumental type of concerts.. more of singing and mayday type where I can scream, wave lightsticks and sing along…which should be quite obvious if you know me.keke. But some of the pieces were very long and really made me sleepy e.g. Miss Saigon. It sounded like it could last forever.
