Update!! (part vingt sept)

1. So this week has been super hectic for me... i finally started my first real temp job. As a housekeeper at Swissotel. The staff rooms and basement were like a humongous labyrinth... there's North and south tower, there's the different lifts to get to different levels... if you take the wrong one it will send u straight to level 39 and above.... then there's the crazy rules that u have to remember, the freakishly heavy duvet and duvet covers that you have to fit together... and the impossibily many postitions of the toilet and cabinet items you have to memorise... but its all fun. I even got a US $2 tip on my first day of work...

The aunties are all pretty nice and the food's not bad too. Many people ask me why am i even doing this.... aiyah for the fun of it and for the experience la... i havent done any temp job in my LIFE. and i think now is a good time to start. I should really get a new pair of black shoes thou cos the ones i have now are seriously not conducive for standing long periods of time... i blame the heels... (well, heels, by men's standards)

2. All those people i'm supposed to interview for my FYP are like seriously flying me kite. All postpone at the very last minute... like the night before "sorry i got urgent things to settle, can we meet next week instead". Wah lao if this goes on i will have NOTHING to show for my report. zilch... a whole lotta nada.

3. All KR items got through panel judging!! Which means i will be performing in 3 items for Dance nite!! SO exciting right!??!i cant wait for practices to come soon!!! i cant wait to dance more!! and abuse my tired legs!

4. i think there was a crane collapse at the construction site at business.... and 3 pple died... EXACTLY WHY I DUN WANNA WORK IN CONSTRUCTION.... i dun wanna die a premature death, getting crushed by mysterious objects and die without even knowing what hit me. that's just sad.

5. My china bought mp3 player which has served me well for the past 3 years suddenly died on me and i promptly bought a new creative zen mp3 player, courtesy of my sister! So cool! haha.... so black and shiny! i like shiny things! haha.

basically thats all.... somehow. i think. i like my life better when i am busy. otherwise.... i'm pretty much doing nothing in my room.

Le jour d'amour

Aye another year of dateless Valentine's.... and i end up with Siwei and Moses for dinner at botak jones... pretty worth the money... gigantic proportions... but the food was only so so.... but seriously the Whoopass Cheesy Fries really whooped our asses man.... we almost puked out what we ate...

We waited very long for our food so they gave us a bowl of complimentary soup thats basically a concoction of chicken bones, rice, celery... and stuff that i cant identify. It was rather tasteless but props for the good service!

Some salad thing that Siwei ate

and the burger that moses had

look how happy the boy is....

the abovementioned WHoopass fries

and me looking my most unglam eating the cajun chicken

ahhh alas the elusive Siwei was nowhere to be seen cos he was busy taking pics and eating... wahaha oh wellz. Kinda sucks to be single on V Day isnt it?

Chinese New Year Musings

After one year of absence from Chinese New Year, i decided to come out with a bang this year!! WOOHOO! Dun i look absolutely minimalistic-chic in this attire??!! Love it! ahahha okok. enuff of my narcissistic, self stroking ego nonsense.... Let the pictures do the talking!

4 days break is just what i needed to take a break from school, from dancing to let my sore ankles heal... CNY was pretty much same old same old... i thought i would enjoy it more, but i dont.... oh but i did play my first mahjong of the year at Shuhong's place... and i WON!! Ping hu men qing zi mo ka long!!!! LOL

I think my cousin is growing up so fast, that cute little boy... adore him to bits. Sometimes i wished i had a little brother....

alrighty now... time to get back to work. And damn do i make a fine looking chap. WAHAHA... i shall stop now

UPDATE!! (part vingt six)

1. ahhh my french has officially become sucky.... the numbered Updates were part of my plan to stay in touch with the language (no matter how insignificant it may be) and of cos to watch as many french movies online .... then i realised i couldnt even spell six in french.... when its actually the same spelling.

2. My interim presentation was over last week. And Dr Beer gave me 9s and 10s out of a possible score of 10. Which prompted Siwei to ask if i slept with the Prof..... No i did not. I'm just good at acting stupid and endearing and giving my oh-god-thats-a-good-question-but-i-have-no-idea-how-to-answer-you face when i am asked tough questions.

Didnt think i did so well with Prof Chan thou cos i stole a glanceand saw a 7 on my paper when i met with him yesterday. No matter.... i am so OVER my FYP at this point in time. Its draining the shit out of me... when in fact i havent done much

3. Argh.... 4 years in dance. No chance to be lead. Which makes me question my proficiency as a dancer... Nuff said.

4. Is it just me or there is zero Chinese New Year mood to speak of? To think that i missed CNY last year... i shud be looking forward to it more than usual. But i am not... not really. I just wanna eat pineapple tarts, bak kwa and all the junk i can lay my fingers on.

5. Celebrated Robson's 25th on Monday. Alcohol (thanks to my concoction of cointreau, vodka orange juice and cranberry juice), food and card games in the middle of the night...ahhh good times. 16 chicken wings among 6 people.... i got so sick of it i declared no chicken wings for one week.

I promptly bought another chicken wing 2 nights later.

6. i feel the need to do something explosive... something i have never done before.... but i cant put a finger to it...
