Holiday

Finally~ We are going to have a long weekend break from work. Great~ I’m going to malaysia with Laily. Shall be back on next saturday.

Lester and me had duck noodles at coffeeshop before going to midnight show, Taxi, at Marina. Erm… Not as funny as what you’ll see in the preview. But at certain points, you can really have a great laugh. Haha~

As for today, slacking the whole day at orchard’s street. Hmm… Dun feel much of the festive season in the streets. Lunch at Takashimaya B2 japanese restaurant, Jiyu Gaoka Kiku Zushi Restaurant. Ordered lots and lots of food. Got Unagi Bento, Curry Udon, Kimchi Soup, Tempura, Fried Tofu. Full… Everywhere is packed with people.

Shark Tale

It’s been a long time we meet out as a click – though still not the full click. Anyway, the more the merrier. Johnson just finished his field camp in Tekong. Oh my god~ He has a lot of mosqitoe bites, on his hands and neck. Jackey’s hair grow longer again. Ah bong fairer again.

We catch Shark Tale at Marina Square. Nice show indeed. We have very lively characters and strong vocal casts. Cool~ But you just feel that the movie is too short. Catch a light snack at Secret Receipe before heading back home.

After sending all of them back, Lester showed me where his camp is. It doesn’t look like one, rather a modern school. Later, we tried our way to Jurong Hill again. The other time we din went all the way up because the road is not lited, kinda uncertain where we go to. I’ve got early birthday presents from him. Thank you sweetie~

I’m looking forward to the coming saturday to malaysia again. Yes!!! After my backpack trip, i realised Singapore’s living pace is too tense and fast. With all the tall urban structures all surrounding me, i hardly can breathe.

Freaky Thursday

I decided to guai guai take porridge for yesterday’s lunch. Bought white porridge and packet the ingredient separately, dine-in in the office pantry. Took a few spoonfuls and was too disgusted to find a marrgot inside the porridge. Yucks… I tried all my might to puck everything out to the sink. Unbearable~

I started to pick up the bottle of nuts is sitting on the pantry table. About to pop 1 into my mouth and my colleague stopped me. The nuts are EXPIRED. No wonder i fall sick after that “nuts-eating” day. Duh~ Till then, Fanny told me a lot of our “dearest colleagues” brought food that are on the verge of expiring to the office for sharing. Kao~ So inhuman…

I also tam jia lah… Everything on the table i just grab and eat. Duh~ I won’t dare to next time round.

Dinner with Xing Cai at Suntec’s N.Y.D.C.. He had his last paper and time for him to celebrate. Slack around at the fountain of wealth and esplande before heading home. The food was not right again for today. Baked rice’s standards dropped, and the mushroom chowder at esplande tastes ashy. Arghh… No good food for the whole day. By the time we finished all our craps, we have missed all our last buses and got to take a cab home. Totally tired and drained by then.

My Health Rings Its Alarm

I’m sick today. Sore throat and flu. It could be due to the nuts that i ate yesterday. Ben dan~

Took leave to the neighbourhood doctor. I thought it was the normal consultation and diagnostic procedure. But he started to feel my neck area and asked a lot of questions.

Doctor: Do you feel that your neak area is exceptionally swelling than normal people? Do you feel that it is lumpy at times?

Me: Nope…

Doctor: Maybe you are used to it. Now, swallow your saliva.

(I did what he asked me to a few times…)

Me: It is because my wind pipe is infected?

Doctor: Nope… I think your neck is really bigger than the normal people. Erm… Did you tremble a lot?

Me: Erm… Yes i did. Expecially my hands.

Doctor: Put your hands straight up, open your hands.

(There we started to look at the hands. Little shivering and trembling.)

Doctor: Do you feel your heart beats very fast?

Me: Nope… (But actually i think it does sometimes even at those normal occassions.)

Doctor: How’s was your appetite? Normal? Eat very little? Or eat a lot?

Me: Normal… (Think back… What is normal to me is not normal to him. But to give it a deep thought, i do eat a lot.)

Doctor: Stand on the weighing machine.

Doctor: Hmm… You do gain some weight from the previous record.

Me: But my figures only fluctuates between these number and nothing higher.

(Later, he took my pulse and blood pressure. Everything is normal.)

Doctor: You swallow your saliva again…

So many questions asked and most of them hit ‘Bingo’. He told me some of the questions asked fall within the condition and some doesn’t. But if all fits, then my metabolism is too high. As for behavior wise, i will feel very gan jiong most of the times.

“How does it affects my heath?” I asked. What the doctor say was, I may tend to eat a lot and then still lost weight in the end. If condition gets worst, i will feel very weak, trip and fall very easily. Bascially, he was saying it is not normal, the body shan’t work this way.

He recommends me to take a blood test for this. If tests reflect positive result, i may need to do ultrascan in my neck area.

Well~ Well~ Well~ Maybe it isn’t that bad as described. Eat a lot still will slim down, not bad leh. Hahaha~

Cellular

Went around shopping for Banana’s birthday present. Din really have anything in mind actually. What she wants, her boyfriend will buy her or she will get it herself. What i can think of, she has all of them lying in her room. Haha~ Getting difficult to buy gifts each year. Finally got her a sheep and a matching cushion for her. Shall be going up to her house later.

We watch Cellular at Marina. This is the first time i encounter such cock up situation. We bought the 6:35pm slot but the ticket man gave us the 4pm one. We din check the ticket until the one couple telling us we took their seats. Manage to shift to the front becoz there isn’t much people in the cinema.

Cellular has a good plot. Because of the random numbers generated, Jessica is able to get help from someone she dunno. Ryan is her only help source. And the story majority surrounding between Ryan and Jessica. You will only got to realise what are the kidnapper’s real identity and the purpose for doing so at the later stage of the story. Quite cool… And of coz, storys that end with a happy ending is a good story… Hahaha~

Din realise yesterday was a Halloween Nite. A lot of restaurants are decorated with halloween decorations and packed with people. Settled our dinner at Esplande a garlic restaurant then.

My Weekends

Satuday is a gathering with yimei and chenhui. This is chenhui’s second book out. Rather excited to see him. Same old usual crappy chap who never seem to be worry of anything. Damn lot to catch up, but time is never lenient to us. Touching remarks by chenhui “I never know when exactly we had bond up our relationship. We dun talk much in school.”

Watched Ladder 49 with Lester at GV Grand. We were too early and had to settle in front of the projector screen for a soccer match. Chelsea vs Blackburn. Cool~ The roaring, the high spirit and the squeeziness in the stadium is definitely something i wish i could experience. Both of us are laughing at one of the Chelsea’s players. Wonder how would you pronounce “Lampard”? Ahem~ Not vulgarity… The actual pronounciation is “Land-park”. Hahaha~

Ladder 49… Veri different approach of starting a movie. But some how you will feel more than a story that works on the story-telling style. Dun quite like the ending. Rather snappy. Touching though, but too long and draggy. Funny though but saddness and fear flow. 4 stars out of 5. Hahaha~

Sunday visited that 38. I miss her so much. Too much to catch up as well. Actually, everyone is facing some kind of problems and pressures. But no matter what, after the heavy rain, there is always sunshine. If you are not going to think positive and make yourself strong, you will continue to be weakling. There isn’t any problem that it can’t be solved.

I’m tired and pressurized though… But sleep is my best cure of medicine. Hahaha~ So dun awake me. I will chop you up~ Hahaha~

Overloaded

This week is kinda overloaded with design work. Did a few report layouts, powerpoint presentation layouts, and christmas ecards. A bit sian because inspirations and ideas dun flow when i’m confine in the office. If they would let me out to the nearby libraries or cafe, let me sit in and listen to the music, den hou seh liao…

Next week will be rather free. But i noe i din do well in the contact list and the brochure layout. Will think of something to surprise them. Hopefully lah~ Den i better dun play so xiong over the weekends. Everytime dread myself out. Do more ecards or even prepare for Chinese New Year and Birthday ones. They are rather demanding.

Time for me to go to sleep again… Bye~

Catherine Gave Birth Liao

My colleague, Catherine gave birth to a baby girl yesterday afternoon. So we pay a visit to her at Raffles Hospital after work.

She looks very fine, not tired, not dread out. We were asking about her delivery process. It was a smooth quick one, around 2 hrs and she only exerts 2 pushes. The baby is pushed to the room. So small and cute. She is very responsive to our voices. Keep blinking and looking at us. Must be a smart girl next time.

Today is also Bernard’s birthday. Happy birthday, sweetie~ Poor thing, he is celebrating his birthday in camp. All the best lah. He just complaint his commandor’s life to me. Got time must meet up again… Maybe with Zijian as well.
