Date With My Sisters at V8 Cafe

-


I have been looking forward to this meet up for quite a while already. Finally, it happened yesterday. A meetup with my sisters, Elainesg & Wendy at this cafe at Bugis Junction recommended by Elaine. Thanks to Elaine for the recommendation. The food was really good and reasonably priced, considering that there was 5 of us. The other 2 people at the dinner were Elaine's godbrother, Rong Cheng & my now famous NS buddy, Jason (after Sis Rebec put up his pic in her "Xiao Tian Tian" entry. Haha!!!)

I reached there about 10 mins earlier than the scheduled time as my office was 3 stops away. Jason was already there since early afternoon. I hope the meet up cheered him up though as his work is not flowing that smoothly as one would have wished. I guessed he must have a good time knowing 3 new friends yesterday.

Although it was the first time meeting with this bubbly and friendly sister of mine, Elaine was able to chat a lot with us. I was pretty worried initally that the gathering will be quiet, but I guessed my worries were unfounded. Because we chatted on a lot of topics at the Cafe and at the Coffee session at Shaw Towers after that.

The only person that did not participate much in our conversation was Rong Cheng. I wonder if our topics were too much about our common friends and our work or his mind was thinking of the GCE 'O' Level exams coming up, or about his failed relationship. Jason & I told him that he should put his heart and soul into his exams first, so that he could fulfill his ambition to join the RSAF as a pliot later. Girlfriends can wait. They will come naturally, when he least expected it.

One funny incident happened though when we were ordering our drinks at Starbucks. Jason could not comprehend what Rong Cheng wanted to order. Jason told him "你跟我一起去，Uncle 不懂你要喝什么？” All of us brust out in laughter after hearing this.

My sisters were pretty disappointed that Rebec & Mr R could not join us. I guess Wendy was hoping to see Rebec so that she could cheer her up over her recent problems. Mr R was down with grastric flu. Otherwise, I guess it will be more fun, as I just got to know that Rebec & Elaine were from the same secondary school, Bukit View Secondary. There is always next time. :)

Hope my sisters and Rong Cheng enjoy themselves last nite, because I did.

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.
