graduation!

Some piccas from the graduation ceremony on Monday.

with papa and momma

hello, my best ally at CX.

"where's Andre?" Haha I had such a good laugh reminiscing
with Jia En (middle). We had so much fun in the kitchen, digging at each other
and discussing about desperate housewives and
project runway and ANTM during classes.

She's a chef now??! I can't believe she's the same girl who hated
Indian spices so much. She made me make the funny-tasting Mexican chicken
during culinary lessons, because she thinks Turmeric will make her
hands rot. =)

She's tossing salads at Flutes now. =)

Thanks for coming Ben & Judy!

Surprisingly, I don't feel as tired as I was last week, and tomorrow is Friday! Work has been fine..I'm generally happy there, except I'm not labelled as a "team-ist" (as in racist) because I refused to share a tub of ice cream with them. We were feeling yesterday, so I suggested cones (everyone can pick their favourite flavour also mah...) The tub of ice cream was to be shared between the 3 divas and myself, and the tub would be passed around according to seniority (!!). So..by the time it reaches me, it would have a) been licked clean b) melted and looked disgusting.

On a happier note, bran met me for lunch yesterday and we had 2 pasta, 1 video tape-size pizza and 3 anti-pasti dishes at the italian joint below my office. And we finished everything up. Well done!

I haven't been getting any rest these few days, and the angst and frustration is getting into me. I haven't seen bran for ages too. I ought to be spending more time with him before we get separated for the longest time. Bran dropped by on Friday night, but I fell asleep within 15 minutes after he came, and he had to leave early the next morning. boohoo.

I finally caught Phantom of the Opera with the boyfriend after procrastinating for 2 months. We paid slightly more than $145 each for two Level 3 front row seats. I enjoyed the show very much, all the time holding bran's hands.

Finally met up with Christine after 3 months, for barely one hour. I have no discipline at all, =P sorry my friend. Glad to see you again!

Sunday is well-spent. 12 hours sleep, cleaned hamster cages, revision and mother's day dinner.

Some piccas from birthday celebrations in the office.

a very sleepy tung

Waking up is really the hardest thing to do these days.. Classes 3 times a week, work, spending time with bran, and playing harvest moon on DS till 3am =).

Bran fell ill last week. He looked like a poor puppy when he slept. I went to bran's after class on Saturday and we lazed on the couch, watched Kill Bill while I played harvest moon again. =)

We finally visited Night Safari on Sunday. Papa managed to get us complimentary passes because his company adopted the flamingos (of all animals / birds...).

Ever since I started working, my bank account has been in a worse state than before I joined CX. It's bad, because I don't feel the pinch when I spend now. And every time I go to Hong Kong I will exhaust about $800 even if I only have one day for shopping. How ah?

Bellini Room

I've just returned from St James. We had an unofficial Marketing & Sales outing at Bellini Room where Runi's brother-in-law's band is playing. Runi is so happening these days, she's over 50, listens to Justin Timberlake, and planned this outing. The place was not too bad except there's a serious lack of seats. They play jazz music there, the lead singer is pretty good. We requested he sang a birthday song for Runi and he totally swept us off our feets. But the company was the main reason I enjoyed myself. There were tasha, elaine, chris toh, runi, ben, jenny, agnes, rai, sue from American Airlines and JUDY! Surprise!

Something really saddens me.. There's nothing I can do here, I can only hope for the best..
