I celebrated two of my friends birthday the last weekend and had 2 Swensens Special cakes for the 2 celebrations.

4 May – Birthday Celebration for Xiuling

This birthday celebration was planned rather early as Xiuling mentioned that Angela & I are always quite busy and she really wanted to celebrate her 21st birthday with us.

The dinner place was initially at Sakae Sushi, but I had not expected it to shrink in size, and there was a long queue already at 6.30pm. In the end, we went to another Japanese restaurant, Kazokutei, a subsidiary of Ajisen, as recommended by Angela. I was quite pleased with the food as it was not bad and I must say it was indeed value for money. We are glad that Xiuling’s boyfriend, Jeremy was able to make it.

The part 2 of the celebration was the cake cutting at Swensens. We got the birthday gal to choose her cake. Her first reaction was why was her cake so expensive? This sis of mine, do not like to accept treats from people but Angela, Jeremy & I told her its after all her birthday. Angela & I got her a Nikon digital camera, which was what she wanted for her birthday.

5 May – Mandy’s Birthday Celebration

This celebration, planned by Evelyn was in 3 parts. The first part was the KTV session at Party World @ Vivo City. I was a little disappointed with the service. The waiting time for the drinks was too long. It was so bad that I launched a complaint to the marketing manager the following day.

I had sang this song to match the retro theme that most of them were doing for the day

The 2nd part was dinner at The Soup Restaurant. I was surprised by the affordability of the meal. It was really value for money.

The 3rd part was the cake cutting at Earle Swensens. I was surprised that Swensens does not provide a knife for takeaway cakes, as a result, we decided that it was better to cut the cake at the restaurant itself.

I hereby wish the birthday gals have a blessed birthday =)

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.
