Free at last. Handed in the SIP report yesterday. As usual, the last minute queen woke up early to work on it till around noon before she went to meet Xiu Wei. Got the report binded, bought lunch and rushed to school.

After handing in, ate the lunch we bought and went for the debrief which lasted only for half an hour. It was stated 3-5pm. Haha…guess the lecturers had nothing much to talk about after all.

Sat around at the concourse, talking. Xiu Wei was waiting for Cas coz they were going to jog and to the gym. Me…well, just waiting for Sis to knock off from work. After Cas came, I went to the travel agency at business school. Waited for Sis. Then we had dinner together.

Dinner at Yoshinoya. One thing I hate is when there’s a customer, you should give your full attention to the customer. Not talk to your friends or sms under the counter. It’s very rude.

Oh well…going down to Taka now. Going to the work agency to settle the stuff coz tomorrow I’m starting work at NParks.

Wah lau eh. God must really be testing my patience this morning.

Stupid taxi driver. Don’t know where’s Ang Mo Kio Street 62, open your mouth and ask lahz. Your mouth is stuffed with gold that you can’t ask? *grrr* Luckily I woke up just in time to see him miss the 2 turns completely, turning to the wrong direction. So he just turned back. Whoa…if I didn’t wake up on time, God knows where he could have taken me to.

*waves fist* And he didn’t even charge me cheaper!!! *grrrr* SMACK YER FACE!!!

And I shall conclude that now I hate 2 types of taxi drivers. Firstly, the kind who like to argue with you even though they are ridiculously and obviously wrong. Secondly, the kind who think they know it all and don’t even open their mouth to double-check.

The former…once, there was this taxi driver who argued with me whether my block was in avenue 5 or street 12. He kept arguing it was street 12 although I tried correcting him. Got so fed up I refused to argue further. What the hell! I live there for 19 years and I don’t even know where my block is situated at? You gotta be kidding…

I’m planning to get my own domain and webspace soon. Used for hosting fanlistings and possibly the JCG photo album. And if I get a little more ambitious, I might try creating the JCG website. Currently one of the members has opened a yahoo photos account to host the photos but the space is running out soon and there’s not even a considerable amount of photos in there.

As to whether I’ll leave trilight, at the moment I’ll say no. Yea…I know I seem to be taking flight real fast. I’ve hardly parked myself here for long and I’m leaving already. That doesn’t feel and sound right.

Oh well…here goes the hunt for cheap and reliable webhosting companies/plans. Recommend please? Anyone?

And…today is lingy-ling’s birthday. Head over here to wish her a happy birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! O tanjoubi omedetou!!!

The weekend is always too short!

Thursday…watched “The Terminal” with Jo and Nad at PS after work. The movie was enjoyable. Never expected it to have quite a bit of humour. You guys should go watch it.

After the movie, we had late dinner at Pizza Hut. Yummyyyyyyyyy~~~

Saturday…met up with Ling and Xiu Wei. Just walked around the malls while Ling looked for a nice pair of shoes. We took some neoprints too. Been quite some time since I took neoprints.

Had dinner with family at Mushroom Pot in Orchard Point. Steamboat again…but this place specialises in mushrooms, thus the name of the restaurant. Yes Ling, a good recommendation for you. There’s one at Stadium too. That one’s much bigger.

Before dinner, we went down to Heeren. Sis wanted to redeem tickets for the Tiger Beer Euphoria ’04 concert at the Padang on 9 October. Heh…just coz Shin is performing. Well, but the line up of artistes aren’t that bad. Besides Shin, there’s Lena Park, Shinhwa, Michael Learns To Rock etc… Desmond’s father managed to get this whole bag of Tiger Beer bottlecaps coz he works at Singapore Country Club. We managed to redeem a total of 18 tickets!!! So yea…9×24 bottlecaps…since each set of 24 bottlecaps can redeem 2 tickets. Go do the math.

Oh…and I got a new watch. Been eyeing the Fossil watch for quite some time. The one where the dial changes picture. I do feel a little guilty that Mum paid for it. I think I’ll return her the money instead when I get my next pay.

It’s kinda fast…Thursday already. Officially left with 2 weeks of SIP. Big countdown begins. Haha…

So…Monday, I met up with Nad for dinner. Thought she might need a little company since she wasn’t too happy about certain things. We were back at Coffee Club. Haha…Kid aka the waiter whom we disturbed wasn’t around.

These days, I’m not sure why but maybe I’m tired, I can’t really focus on things. Especially when it’s a few things at the same time. I just kinda space out after a while or my brain just connects too slowly.

With that came the embarassing situation. Coz I reached Coffee Club earlier so Nad said I go get a seat first. Upon getting seated, the waiter/manager asked “Are you joining us for dinner?” I was thinking “WHAT???!!!” I was confused coz if you took that question literally, it would mean that we were going to have dinner with the waiter?! He had to ask that like 5 times before my brain finally connected and I answered “yes”. The question was whether we were having dinner or just having dessert. And the us meant Coffee Club. Hahaha…but maybe he should have rephrased his question so my brain might have connected a little faster.

Tuesday, weather wasn’t good. Rain. Took a cab home. I was tired anyway.

Yesterday, more work coming in. Sometimes I think I work too slowly. Anyway, the problem of focusing came back again. When my colleague came with the work and was explaining to me all the stuff, after the first few screens I kinda spaced out. The whole time I was going “ya…ok”. But in actual fact, my brain wasn’t even thinking and registering at all. Dangerous.

When I was leaving office, my mind was on work and how I might be working too slowly. I was trying to concentrate on watching out for cars and talking to Sis on the phone as well. Just had trouble focussing on everything at the same time. Dangerous again. I could have been hit by a vehicle.

Then at night, I was busy sms-ing Ling and Nad. Sis and Dad were trying to tell me things at the same time. I was also trying to listen to the news on tv. Getting a little pissed off with Sis coz she was just blatantly ignoring my Mum’s yells for her to go bathe. Oh yea…and irritated at the fact that she’s got a sorethroat but instead of resting her throat, she wants to talk so loudly.

Finally I got so fed up, I just switched off the tv. Less noise. Sis and Dad went quiet for a moment at my sudden outburst. And I explained that I had only one brain and 2 ears. So can I just focus on one thing at a time?

I’m so glad Colin and Christie didn’t win The Amazing Race. They are an annoying pair. I think the game is sometimes based on luck and making the right choices at the right time.

Updates…

Saturday, met up with Xiu Wei to go shopping. Heeren…Far East…Bugis.

Woohoo! She likes Maroon 5’s “This Love” as well. Yea…and Singapore Idol contestant, Benjamin Eio sang that song. However, I think he was trying too hard to sound like Maroon 5’s lead singer.

Talking about Maroon 5, changed my layout a little. And there’s Maroon 5’s “She Will Be Loved”. Love that song as well.

Yesterday, went to Waseda High school for their annual fun fair. It was a JCG activity but Sis and I went by ourselves. Per and Desmond came along too. Something like TP’s CCN day except it’s more fun since there are more games. Caught 2 yo-yos…that was the maximum number you could catch.

Sidetrack a little…actually I kinda thought our class could do the yo-yo game for CCN day in year 2 coz the game’s really fun. The yo-yos I’m talking about are actually small balloons filled with a little water. Attached to it is this long rubber band. So you fill this pool of water and put all those balloons in. The game goes like this…you get a hook. Attached to it is tissue paper. You hold the tissue paper and try to get the hook to hook a yo-yo. There’s technique to it coz the minute the tissue paper gets wet, it can’t hold the weight of the yo-yo. So the tissue breaks from the hook and…no yo-yo for you. Anyway, everyone was really busy in year 2…and…oh well…

Then, there was this Where’s Wally game. You get this game sheet. You are given a clue. Using the clue, you gotta find the correct place where Wally’s waiting. He will in turn tell you another clue and you gotta find the next place. There were 5 places to find in 15 minutes. Haha…Per and I were like running here and there.

Lots more other fun games. Food and performances.
