Monday

The day before yesterday: Met up with some ex-colleagues at Siglap. Couldn't resist suan-ing the poor guy cos he is really such a good sport and i absolutely love that quality about him. (Yes, I've learnt through the years that not everyone is suan-able and for those who can, i applaud your good humour/temperament.) So we were at Gelare and Jaz suddenly talked about Sunny, and so we called him to join us.

Jaz: Where's Sunny? Should have asked him out.
Me: He should be home by now *checks watch* being a good dad to his daughters. *Frantically dialling Sunny's number*
Rod: Don't tell me he's still in the office?!?!
Me: Hi Sunny, are you still in the office??!?!
Sunny: yeah...
Me: *Roll Eyes thinking "what the hell?"*
Rod: *shakes head* i work such normal hours now! thank God i left!
Me pass phone to Jaz...
Jaz: You want to join us for ice-cream at siglap gelare?
Sunny: Can't lah, need to go home to my girls.
Jaz passes phone back to Me...
Me: It's alright. Sunny?? Are you there? HARLOW!!!
Apparently phone got cut off cos he went into lift... darn...

Apparently, our trusty mobile phone network wasn't so trustworthy that night, so some network glitch caused us to miss each other, cos we left before Sunny turned up at Gelare! (Silly man, should have called me instead of msging mah....) What a pity! On the way home, me was pretty amused by Rodney's attempt at Jay's song "ting ma ma de hua" loosely translated as "listen to your mother", although i still prefer Jay's edgier pieces.

3.5 more working days. my mind is on holiday! last evening's kickboxing class totally killed me! i huffed and puffed and threatened to punch my imaginary opponent senseless, but in the end, it was i that suffered, not the air molecules that got knocked around. my body is aching like a 90-year-old who's just completed 100 push-ups. i couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. i had to wake hao-e up to massage my shoulder-blades which were so sore and is still kicking up a ruckus behind me. my gosh! i tis old and feeble.

Accident on Front St

Hao-e and i just witnessed a horrible freak accident on Front St. Tonight is the first Harbour Night of 2007, and we happened to be in town for dinner. After dinner, we walked along Front St looking at the stalls set up along the side walk. There were stalls selling jewellery, ice-cream, hand-crafts, pepper jam/sauce, soap etc. And there was quite a good crowd as well cos there were 2 cruise ships docked at the Hamilton harbour. When the gombey dancers started their performance, we stood on the side walk of Burnaby St watching, gaping and taking photos. All of a sudden this horse carriage with 2 horses just sped along crushing the crowds underneath. The horses trampled over and the carriage rolled over some ppl!!! Eeks, we were shocked beyond words, thinking it could have been us. The parameds came and took 4 on stretchers. It was horrible. Hope noone is seriously hurt.

The Tudors

I just realised how good looking Jonathon Rhys Meyers is? Gosh, i just love his chiseled face and beautiful eyes. Anyway, so i chanced upon this new series loosely based on THE Henry VIII, second king of the Tudor Dynasty. You guys should watch it if you are as besotted with him and as fascinated with anything royal as i am. hehe.... So i went to find out a bit more about the rather infamous king on wiki and here's some trivia about his eventful life ( i bet, with so many women around him?!) Technically, Henry was only married twice. Four of his marriages were annulled which means they never took place. His court jester was named Will Somers . The only surviving piece of clothing worn by Henry VIII is a cap of maintenance , awarded to the Mayor of Waterford , along with a bearing sword, in 1536 . It currently resides in the Waterford Museum of Treasures . Henry VIII was the first member of the English Royal Family to wear silk stockings.
