Visit To SGH

I was supposed to have met up with my 2 sisters today but I got an sms message from Sis Elaine that her dad was admitted to SGH for a servere bout of food poisoning when I switched on my hp. Intitally she suggested postponing the appointment to the evening , but I guess her dad was in serious condition, so she cancelled the appointment. At first, she felt bad about not being able to meet us, but I told her, her dad's food poisoning was a case of unexpected circumstance, as a result, I can understand the cancellation. I hereby wish her dad to get well soon.

I was at SGH later to visit my grandma though as I could not find time to visit her yesterday, after my dad asked my brother & I to go to the CC to listen to a karaoke singing competition last nite.

(It was boring and the singing standards of the singers was not even on par with those who sang at the competition that my dad participated last week. Furthermore, my dad was barred from entering the competition last nite as he won the competition in 2004. The rules stated that the winners of the past three years are not eligible for participation, but must buy tickets to show support. I wonder what logic was that? We were further embarassed by the fact that we were unaware that the MP for the area, Mrs Lim Hwee Hua was in attendance as my brother went there in T-shirts & shorts. We made a discreet exit through the back door of the theatrette when she left soon after)

My grandma is also warded for food poisioning. I heard from her that besides her, my 3rd, 4th and 5th aunt also had similar symptoms after their dinner on Thursday. I wonder why didn't my 2 young cousins (5th aunt's children) got it as well? Fortunately, only my grandma was warded as she was found to have low sugar level in her blood. It was so low that she was scolding my 4th aunt. My mum, who spoke to the doctor yesterday, said that it was common for people with low sugar in blood to "be seeing,doing or saying the wrong things".

She looks ok to me when I visited her today. She is still very alert and aware of the things and events that are happening around her despite her 82 years of age. I just hope she will be able to be home soon.

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.
