Whoa, really have exhausted out for the past few weeks ..... Have been working till very late for the past few weeks covering part of my mgr's duties, but tomorrow ...... he's BACK from his long MC.
Last Wednesday 23rd Nov 05, saw Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire with my "Secret Admiree" (Take note, its not Admirer and its "Admiree") =P Its so damn packed that day, i remembered i spent like 20mins queueing for the tickets during lunch time. No doubt its a 8pm show, and im buying the tix during lunch, i could not get good seats! Any way, we had dinner @Yoshinoya, had a good chat before the show, bought a large popcorn and a large ice lemon tea to munch during the show. Took bus home together after that.
The following day, 24th Nov (Thur) im down with a flu, went to see a doctor @8am, sms-ed my big boss that i will not be able to make it to work due to the flu. Thought i could juz go home to have a good rest, but received a sms @ around 10am from my boss saying that he's having a "headache" as he cannot find anyone to cover me that day. Morever my direct mgr is also on long MC, thinking that it will get really busy at work if nobody is to cover me. So decided to go back to help out. Worked till 4pm, im really feeling terrible then, so got no choice but to leave for home!
So tomorrow on, i can relax abit, cos no need to do 2 person's work ^^ but it won't last for long ..... cos my mgr will be going for his marital leave and reservist from 3rd week of Dec and won't be back till Feb 2006! Guess Part 2 of my nightmare will begin then =(
Another record breaking OT, worked till 11.15pm!!!!! Because of last Thur, Fri, Sat and Sun report needs reconciliation so no choice have to stay back to finish up :(
22nd November 2005 (Tuesday)
Got a 1/2 day off as today there's enough staff in office hence, boss allow me to go on a 1/2 day off. Went to Enzer Service Center which is located @ Ang Mo Kio, (as previously i spilled soup onto my DVD remote). The thought of taking a train to City Hall then change to the North bound line really bores me. Luckily Lawrence (colleague) suggests that i take bus 969 from Tampines and i will be in Khatib in about 30mins then to take a train to AMK which is only 2 stations down. This really saves alot of time!
My Fish Fried Rice
After i got the remote control, i went over to AMK central as im craving for the famous Fish & Chip from the S11 there. As im feeling very hungry due to skipping my lunch, so i ordered the Fish Fried Rice instead. After that was indecisive whether to join my "Direct Banking" colleagues for dinner @ Marina South or to go get my hair done. Thinking that it had been raining the whole day and it was still raining then, so i decided to go do my hair, as if i were to go Marina South with them, it will be very inconvienient. Felt very paiseh for putting areoplane. Sorry Jess and Desmond for putting you guys pigeon!
Went JB with Peifen today, actually Liping, Peifen and myself had come to a decision that we would visit JB once a month to top up our daily neccessities, things like, shampoo, shower foam, sanitary pads (for them only) as the prices there are much cheaper than Spore.
Today only Peifen and i went as Liping's exam is juz around the corner hence she could not make it. Had Herbal Chicken and some 小白菜 for lunch @ some coffee shop that is supposed to be quite popular. After that we to catch the Korea Horror movie "Cello". My main intention is to buy soem T-shirts and a white bermuda. Could only manage to get 2 T-shirts, no luck for the berm, actually saw 1 @ Baleno but it ran out of sizes :(
Took a taxi down to Holiday Plaza to look for some animes, found this really cool shop that really specializes in Animes only, got hold of the web-site with that has its catalog ..... they even provide delivery services to Spore. I fell in love with this shop immediately as they sell almost all the animes under the sun!!!! Gotta spread this good news with all my anime fan colleagues! On the spot i could not resist the temptation to get something home to watch, and so i bought the whole set of "Record of the Lodoss War" DVD, it costs only RM50.00.
After that took a slow stroll down to 大马花园 to settle our dinner. Ordered 麦片虾婆 (Cereal Crayfish), 铁板鹿肉 (Hot Plate Deer Meat),清蒸金目卢 (Steam Fish) and 清炒豆苗 (Veggies). Another satisfying feast ..... this realy is a fruitful and enjoyable trip to JB!!!
Whoa yesterday was one tiring day ..... got to know that my boss's MC got extened from 1wk to another 3wks! In other words .... i will be really sianz, cos no more lunch partner and more work, cos need to cover part of his daily duties. Stayed till 10.30pm, struggling with the reconciliation of some reports! *sigh*
11th November 2005 (Friday)
Nothing much happened today .... worked till around 8pm and took Brandon's (a colleague of mine) car down to Bugis to meet Jasper to play KOF! Had our supper @ Macdonald and took a train home.
Happened to come across another news on a blogger almost being jailed for making racist remarks! Blogging nowadays are getting more and more "Dangerous" cos you never knew who you will offend even when you are just merely commenting something in your own view! So its best to just blog your daily activites, and no more than that ...... And heres the story of the 17 year-old boy who was almost jailed .....
Third racist blogger convicted but may avoid jail term
Gan caused a furore when between April and July this year he posted a series of offensive comments about Malays - even admitting in one April 4 entry that he was 'extremely racist'.
Over the next three months, he made more inflammatory remarks mocking the Malay community and ridiculing their religion, which were deemed by the court to promote 'ill will and hostility' between races, an offence under the Sedition Act.
KTV-ing with Jie, Piao, Xiong, Boon and 1 more anonymous guy ..... thought that it will not be more than $10 as we had this complimentary ticket that entitles to 4hrs of free room. But .... still ended up paying $15 per pax -.-" Last week 5 of us went and we pay like $14 per pax and now with this complimentary tix, it seems like not much of a difference!!!!
Had so much fun singing all those nonsense songs like 姐姐妹妹站起来 and 阿雅's "Cua"冰 song! We also came across this song sung by 古巨基 that lasts for like 10mins! Its a song compilation of many different songs ..... So for the last few minutes, we quickly 点 this song so as to value for our money, hahaha. Had dinner at Maxwell market before going home.
文杰 & 国雄
Piao & 文杰
On my way home, got a call from Fred to ask me to go TM to have a few games of KOF, thinking that its quite on the way as im taking the MRT so went over to play a few game. Played till 10+ and we took bus home together ......
4th November 2005 1st thing in the morning, saw my mgr's arm all bandaged up, found out that he broke his arm while playing soccer yesterday! I knew that its nothing good if i see him around even thou he's on MC. Juz as i've thought, im supposed to cover some of his duties during his absence! -.-" Can you imagine that, me being juz a stuff doing a mgr's duty .... Initially was quite sianz cos this means that i got more duties on top of my our work! But later on, i think of it positively, was thinking that this is a good chance for me to learn something ..... so guess i will be much more busier for this month as my mgr will be away for 1mth at least .....
Had dinner @Fish & Co in Tampines with Irene, Evangeline and Pei Kheng. Jessica is supposed to be joining us as well, but think she is too tired so she decided to go back home to rest instead. I left office at around 7.20pm, they say they will give me a buzz when they've arrive. Can't resist the temptation to go play the new KOF, so i went over to Century Sq to play 1 game. After the game, Evan called me as she had already reached Tampines liao while Irene and Pei is still in office clearing some of their work. We headed over to Fish & Co to wait for them instead of walking around aimlessly.
Waited like 30mins and they still have not arrive! Gave them a call and they are juz outside Fish & Co. Immediately ordered our food as all of us are alreay starving! Evan and i had the famous "Fish & Chips", Irene had the "Sweet & Sour Fish" and Pei had the "Sword Fish Collar" All of us really stuff ourselves to the max as the servings are really huge.
While eating theres this really funny incident that happened to Pei, she's wearing this low cut blouse, while she's eating her "Sword Fish" 1 piece of the meat fell into her cleavage! OMG! She had to stand up to let it fall out from the bottom .... We really had a good laugh for that =D (So let this be a warning for all gals out there not to wear so low cut cos theres a risk that food will fall inside, hahaha) After that i brought them up to my office to show them around my working environment. Thereafter its time to go home as its already 10+
Damn! 0004hrs, i haven gone for my nite jog yet, gotta go now, Ciaoz!
The time now is 0115hrs, juz finished my 20mins nite jog. Perspiring non-stop ..... this is the 2nd day im jogging le, today can jog slightly longer than the 1st day, too bad yesterday i miss a day to jog, else i think i will be able to last even longer today =P From now on, i will have to make it a point to do it every nite, im very determined to slim down liao!

Selamat Hari Raya to all my Muslim frens! Went to Bugis to play the new KOF 11, share with "Ah Di". Ah Di used "Oswald" while i used "Athena and Yuri" we won like 22++ rounds. Whoa really can feel tired even seated down playing :p (Mentally tired i mean) Really enjoyed my game today, Ah Di say next time when we meet, we gonna share game again and "Sa" all the free frag together HAHAHA! KOF XI ROX
Happy Deepavali to all my Indian frens. Was rotting at home the whole, actually wanted to go Bugis play the new KOF, but was undecisive whether to stay at home or to go ..... too much of a procrastinating, ended up falling asleep at 3pm ..... Woke up at ard 7pm, had dinner and watched abit of VCD then went to take shower. Looked at the mirror and saw a fat pig! OMG i had better do something to that bulging stomach, if not i think its gonna explode 1 day! Decided to do some exercise to get rid of that awful "Pregnant Stomach".
Went for a jog at ard 11pm, 1st time in 5yrs since my BRT (Basic Rescue Training) back in Civil Defence that im doing some form of exercise. Jogged for abt 20mins non-stop, felt like fainting and im all out of breath. My whole body was like numbed with feeling like lotsa ants crawling all over my body, think might be the blood circulation, didn't do anything ever since BRT as i've been posted for clerical duties! Gotta maintain jogging to get rid of bulging stomach, else i think 1 of the days, it might juz explode with all my intestines flying all over the place!
Gonna stop here, juz had my cooling shower after the jog, whole body is aching le ... going to bed liao, Ciaoz!

Left work at 7pm sharp, took a train down to bugis as i have not been going for so long le, morever there's a new KOF game where i can play now. Tried calling Shawn to see if he's free to meet up or not? Actually was supposed to have made arrangement with him yesterday to meet up for a show today, but think he was too busy playing DOTA hence didn't get a reply from him on MSN last nite.Managed to get him on his hp, he is very free today as his deary is studying for an upcoming exam in NTU hence got time for me =P Decided to catch "Exorcism of Emily Rose" both of us were looking forward to this show ever since we saw the trailer in cinema. (A spooky show on a Halloween Nite, it really brings out the atmosphere =D) Played a few games of KOF, managed to win like 10 rounds even thou its my 1st time playing =P
We played till like 12am, almost forgot that we had a show to catch as we really were too engrossed in the game. Ran up to the cinema cos the show will be starting in 15mins time. Dun think i will talk much abt the show, left it to you people out there to see ba ....
