Shopping Saturday

-

I was tasked to get a farewell gift for my colleague. I had a discussion with my manager, and we decided that we should give her something, instead of just buying her a dinner. Dinners eaten already are forgotten easily, reasoned my manager. In the end, we decided to get her a set of baby mittens and baby shoes since she is pregrant with a child. In that way, she would remember us.

Went to Mothercare at Plaza Singapura and took a look at the product, after their website did not show that they have the product. I am thankful that Great Singapore Sale is on at this period as I got them at a very good price. Thanks for the great sales service, even though the sales staff had to wear masks in the light of the current H1N1 pandemic.

Popped by Sembawang Music Store, which was on the same level and saw that Jacky Cheung had released his 2 Top of The Hits compilation. I thought it was a VCD/DVD version, but after checking, it is only a CD version. Although the price was alright, but I decided not to buy the CD collection since I have some of the songs already.

Had wanted to find the MJ Collection, but it was sold out. Wow, looks like the MJ fans are out in full force!!!

Decided to head straight home but discovered that my watch had stopped suddenly. Therefore, I tried to get my uncle’s friend to change the battery for me but he was not able to do so as he said sweat may have made it difficuit for the watch cover to be opened, therefore he can’t change the battery for me. He advised me to go down to City Chain, where I got my Sovil Titus watch, where they had the machinery to open the cover.

Took a bus down to Bishan Junction 8 to get the battery changed. My watches had been very lasting and I really like the watch, since it was the first watch I bought since I started working.

What a eventful day!!!

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.
