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.

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...

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.
