TGIF

This is the end of the first work week for us since returning last weekend. Officially, we're now half-way through the last work-day of the week. YIPPEE!!!

It was tough getting over the jet lag this time, especially for me. Took me all of 6 days. Not too bad actually, considering i'm correcting 2 hours in each day. Last night was the first night i slept till the alarm woke me up at 6.30am this morning. yeps, all 8 hours full of sleep. Didn't toss and turn on the bed trying to get back to sleep at 4.30am. Nope, just peaceful rest. I Like!

How's everyone getting on in Singapore? Gosh, it was so difficult boarding that flight in T3 last Thursday. My sis, get this, NOT my mum ok, MY SISTER actually teared at the airport. Aww... *pat pat back*. We'll be back before you even know it. In the meantime, continue missing your little sister, cos i'll be missing you from here too.

Oh! we are heading to London on 2 - 11 Mar. Can't wait for that to happen. i'm already planning shows/plays/ballets to watch whilst there. it's just bloody exciting to be back after almost 4 years. but knowing london, i bet most of the streets in zone 1 should still be the same, so no worries about getting lost. i'm looking forward to belgo, ten ten tei and four seasons, my old haunts. yummy yummy food!!!

there is a wine-tasting event at Gosling's tonight with dinner thrown in too. not a wine fan, cos it sends me straight to bed so it will be alcohol in moderation tonight. if it's beer or rum, then it's a different story. heh. i recently went to roy's house where he hosted dinner, home-made no less, for a bunch of us old friends. i brought rum cake, some beer, and a bottle of barcardi rum. gosh, i must have seemed like an alcoholic, cos it was just me and my bottle of barcardi all night. haha. coupled with rum cake too. i'm a rum addict. this place is brilliant for me, you know? hahaha... that's the alcoholic talking again.

anyway, it's the lenten season. for those who paused and thought "WTF?", you can skip this paragraph, cos i'm going to go on and on about religion-y things. SCROLL TO NEXT PARA. So it's the lenten period. Hao-e and i have decided to give up red meat for the 40 days before Good Fri and Easter. no more hamburgers, no steaks, no bbq ribs, etc. yeps, and i'll throw in another "no rum for 40 days" resolution too. considering my like for the liquid, not bad siah? thanks, i know i am good.

anyway, i believe new year celebration finally ends! wasn't it like Yuan Xiao yesterday? or is it today? HAPPY YUAN XIAO JIE!

Enough of my ramblings. Leave a comment, tell me what you did for V-day.

Jay Chou

Blasting Jay Chou into my ears with my broken ear-phones.. hee. I still love him so much! one of those singers whose songs cause my body to move and groove to the rhythm. just feel like dancing. my interest in mr chou waned though in recent months due to his new gf. i mean she's an improvement over jolin but i still think she's a bit ah... how shall i put it, not very nice. somehow i feel she's mean. not as guai and angelic as she looks. still have a soft spot for ppl who are nice. why can't ppl be nice? i'm trying to be nice. (my new mantra - " Be nice ") haha. i mean people who know me from before know i'm quite harsh and critical and unforgiving. so nice has got be a NEW mantra for me. Next thing you know, i'll be meditating in a nunnery atop a mountain with a thousand steps cut into it. every morning i'll be climbing down those steps to fetch a pail of water... and jack and i will fall down the hill with the pail and all... yikes, ...

Shujun's Birthday!!

Seems like yesterday when the new year 2005 started.. now it's May, and we've celebrated Beek's, Lihui's and Wanping's birthdays. Time seems to be passing too fast for birthdays for i refuse to admit that i'm older [again], yet it passes too slowly when i'm sad or down. Ah well, life isn't a box a chocolates. nor a piece of cake. it's full of cakes! birthday cakes especially. in 2 days, one of my best mates will be turning 24. it's been more than a decade, us knowing each other from sec sch days. haha! I just want you to know that you'll always going to be my lap cheong. my very cute friend who can sing "one night in Beijing" in both guy and gal's voices and break the record too! my ultra loyal friend who stuck by me all these years, listening to my whining and complaints. i have a lot of respect for ppl who can stand my nonsense, cos well, i'm not an easy person to like.. ask my buddies they'll tell you. [better still, ...

Some news...

I just learnt over the weekend that the last grand-uncle on my father's side had passed on. We weren't that close when he was alive, but i do recall him being a jolly old chap who was always ready with a smile... as far as grand-uncles go, he's the closest one we had. And of course he lived in malaysia which gave us a perfect excuse for a weekend trip up the causeway, far from the hustle and bustle of maniacal singapore. Another shocking piece of news i heard last week in fact was, me best pal's dad seems to be suffering from dementia. i hope he gets better soon cos i know everyone's worried and imagine the pressure on the family! after hearing that, i've been praying every night that my parents remain healthy and happy, especially during this period when i'm away from home. The 3rd piece of shock i had was that friend X and friend Y have gotten together. both of them are my college mates. BUT friend X was with friend A at that time, and friend Y was w...
