rainy weekend

I can't find the picture of me, jie xian and see hwee eating ice cream before we climbed close to 400 steps to reach the mausoleum.

Anyway, cold weather makes me crave for ice cream.

bangkok

daniel chan is going to bangkok with michelle on thursday. we helped him plan his itinerary and i have to urge to fly there soon.

christina toh and sherril 'invited' me to join them in bangkok in january. they'll be going in a big group over the weekend. i'm sure it's a pretty good deal since they've got airline passes and they get to enjoy lots of discounts.

wendy is tempting me to join elaine and herself in bangkok in february. they've got a REALLY good deal too, but the travelling period is too near the deadline for the research paper.

bran has been asking me to return to bangkok with him every other day.

ohhnoo i'm so tempted. -pulls hair-

anyway, stephen brought the d&d committee to airport for a thank-you lunch.

the d&d committee

test test, wai pheng testing my camera. all the photos turned out ok today, so with regards to the blur photos taken on saturday,
the problem lay with the photog , which is me

two of my favourite people in CX. helen, confidential secretary to stephen; and wai pheng, admin personnel.
wai pheng is really pleasant and helen is so cheeky!

ctrl - z

when you've done something that you wished you didn't, do you wish that you can 'ctrl - z' and undo what you've just done?

I get this very often.

Sunday

bran called me at 7am to announce that he's under my block. I went down with my eyes half-open to see him with his bicycle. He had spent 2 hours cycling from his place, to my old place to see what is left of it, to the pet shop to look at the bunnies and then to my place.

I am so sore that i couldn't go on a joyride on bran's flight last friday. because bran only knew of the flight on thursday and the police needed 5 days to process any requests to take passengers in the flights. will I get another chance soon?

tung: i like how you cuddle me to sleep
bran: mm..but you wriggled away

Cathay Pacific Celebrates 60 years in Singapore

Have you seen the cathay's ad in the straits times & lian he zao bao today?

-beams-

I wouldn't say I did that, but I was largely involved in producing the ad. I was so worried the creative may not even be produced and approved in time for it to be published today. The ad kinda marks the end of my attachment in the marketing & sales department. Will be attached to reservations & ticketing (which is just next door to M & S and is part of the M & S team) for a month from next week.

I had to wake up at 5am today, take a cab down to telok blangah to pick daniel up and off we went to the airport. the cab fare was $40! we met up with ben and boon, set up the standee at the check-in row and went for a $45 gelare breakfast. woohoo!
*expenses were borne by CX. =X

we were there to distribute some tokens of appreciation to all CX passengers departing Singapore today.

CX plane in front of a SQ plane, at daybreak

we had an hour before the second flight so roland brought us around. we went to SATS lounge and frankly, it's no biggie. It is traditional, all covered up. But CIAS lounge, which CX passengers use, is nice! so much daylight and you can get a nice view of the planes.

at the CIAS lounge, see the CX tailfin behind us?

remember her? she's aileen leong, my history/social studies teacher back in CSS. She was leaving for HKG on CX.
Another CSS teacher, Gary Cheng, was on the same flight too.

We handed out the gifts till 11.30am after the 3rd CX flight for the day. The gifts for the second half of the day were handed out by the airport staff. Actually I'm pretty worried for myself because 60% of the pictures taken are blur. And those which are not are not good enough for publication. ohoh..

We had drinks at MIX and ben brought me and daniel to Werners to eat. Woohoo!

Happy 60th Birthday!

cathay pacific dinner & dance

It was our annual dinner & dance last friday and I was one of the committee members. I'll let the pictures do the explaining. From the photos, it seems like it's christine and siautung's party. heh.
