My B-Day Present From my Friends

-

I have been pretty busy this week. I met up with Jason on Thursday and this guy sprang me a surprise. After our dinner at Suntec City Oli Dome, where it was a good dinner, (where the food was really good & delicious, will bring my friends there if Cafe Cartel is full on 17 Dec. The food is not oily & pretty filling as well & it tastes good.) .

After that,we went to Samsung Shop, where I thought he wanted to buy the Samsung voucher that I requested as birthday present. The store personnel said that Samsung does not carry vouchers, therefore proceeded to ask me what hp I had in mind. After getting the IPOD Nano for free at the Singnet Signup, I do not think I needed the Samsung E730 as I have an MP3 player & FM Radio Receiver, so I decided on the Samsung E640. I asked Jason, what budget did the group have in mind, sharing my present? After hearing that 5 people are going to share my present with a $30 budget each, as Caifeng, Stella & he had a tight budget. I told him that I do not mind to trade in my Nokia 6020 hp & top up the balance myself. After informing them, I got the hp. (* I got a surprisingly good trade-in value for my Nokia hp, that I ended up topping up less than $150 for this b-day present.) Still trying to get used to it though, as the functions are different from Nokia.


I met up with my ex-colleagues on Friday, where they actually celebrated my birthday for me and several of my ex colleagues (Bik Huat, Ben, Chris & Limin) . I like to express my heartfelt thanks to Sunny, Jolin & Soo for celebrating our birthdays for us.

We had dinner at a Chinese Restaurant at China Square Level 3, The Teahouse. The restaurant is unique in a sense that we need to circle the food we want on a food list before placing an order with the waiter. I find that it was pretty interesting.

After that, we actually wanted to go Mount Faber for a drink. But the weather suddenly changed, It poured, so we went to Boat Quay Coffee Bean for a drink instead. We chatted till about 1.30am before going our seperate ways.

We were told by Sunny that he will be holding his wedding reception at Sheraton Towers Hotel on 11 Feb 2006 (Sat). Looks like I have to start to prepare the wedding red packet already. Hehe.:)

Dinner @ Bacchus @ Dempsey

I joined the Facebook Foodies Club for dinner at Bacchus last night. Yesterday was with a smaller group of people with 11 people. It meant that I had a chance to interact with people and enjoy good food at the same time. I certainly had a good time knowing Deborah, Rene, Wenna, Chris & Catherine. The good part was having my singing buddy, Jonathan around as well, making me able to enjoy the dinner and making friends with relative ease. I must say I enjoyed the food, that I ordered. I ordered the Flumuken,Bawhrust susages and tiramisu cake. You must be thinking that why I ordered so much food. I must say I was very hungry as I didn’t have a filling lunch. Although, it burned a hole in my pocket, but it is certainly good to indulge in myself sometimes! I like the ambience of the restuarant. After the dinner, we indulged ourselves in some German wine before we were asked to pose for photos. After that, we adjourned to Harry’s Bar for a drink and chat session. Jonathan was so afraid

My Hosting Script for The National Day Event

-
I just managed to work out the draft hosting script for the National Day Event I am hosting. I am thankful for all the comments that I have received from my fellow RC members and friends. Just feel that sometimes, no matter whatever you do, some people, no matter for what reasons, will not be happy with the arrangements. I just wish to say that I am already trying my best to try to get this event going, considering the fact, that this is the 1st time I am organising an RC event. I have also tried my best, despite the fact that I would like to have a free hand to organise the event, just like what I usually do for the KTV events I have on Facebook, I accommodated to the requests that I should somehow follow the past years’ format to do the event. I know that I am not very familiar with how things are run at the RC, therefore in the end, my organising committee only made some changes to the event as we had a limited budget to work on. I even volunteered myself to do the hosting for the

June Musings

 It has been a while since I last blogged. Since then, I am settling well into my role, although there were some incomings and outgoings, which are common in any workplace.   I managed to catch a last glimpse of Yishun Orto before it closed on 30 June. I would like Leonard, Wendy & Michael, as without them performing at the Happiest Hour Bar & Bistro, I guess I would never go to this place, as I had not so fond memories of a nearby place during my NS days.   I did not manage to get A* Mei or Jacky Cheung concert tickets this round. It could be a sign for me to build up my savings again after an unstable 3 years on the job front. I hope to stay on this job for a while despite its lack of transport amenities and lack of shelters for rain as it is not often that you can have great teams of colleagues and bosses with whom you can get along well. I guess having a boss who is differently abled helps me to settle in well as colleagues tend to be more understanding and caring.
