Heard abt the news of the missing girl Huang Na's death story. It is so tragic. No one would want the outcome to turn out this way. The police strongly believe that the decomposed body found in Telok Blangah was the missing girl. Now, the next step is to derive what leads to the death of the girl. She is only 10 and the prime suspect ruthless way of killing her make my hair stand. He could have killed her, sealed her up in a box and threw her off the hills of Telok Blangah hill. This is terrible and his act cannot be condone if evident revealed that he is the real killer. The police are establishing the facts. I hope the girl can rest in peace. Poor thing.
Anyway, i came home late last nite after that halloween party @ double o. Slept till almost noon b4 i went for a tan. My nephew was here. As usual, i brought him to compass point via LRT. He had enjoyed himself thoroughly. This little imp is adorable at times but had also inherited my sis wilfulness. He would refuse to walk the way i asked him to. I am neither an easy person to deal with. ha... I grabbed him hardly and pulled him along. He had no choice but to follow behind, giving me a "disgusted" look. ha.. I wonder how i would treat my own kid the next time. We shall see....

Halloween Nite @ Double O
It was my first celebration of halloween in Singapore. Hee. I din know it was a big event for most nite spots either in mohamed Sultan, Chimes or even Orchard. I was at MS last nite and there was this VERY BIG group of expatriates and locals who dressed up for the occasion. It was so cool. They really spent effort to dress up. Some masquerade to be Gladiator, Nurses, Surgeons, FBI, sex icons etc. It was really something new to me after 25 years. Everyone knows that US celebrate halloween, Asians seldom do that. And i can thus conclude that there are more foreigners staying in Singapore.
Singaporeans are generally shy and risk adverse. If anyone is asked to dress up for halloween, i think most reaction will be "har? dun want lar" The Ang Mohs are so open. Well, i think this form of culture should be brought in. Relax and have fun. Our social stigma is still there. But i believe that as time moves on, Halloween will be a great event here. Probably it is still the beginning, afterall many party goers still give the angmohs wierd and finger pointing looks. Come on, this is a cosmopolitan city! I should dress up too the next time. ha... but dressing needs money.... will work hard then!

A member of Fitness First
Yes, i finally hop on the wagon of fitness first. Had been thinking for a while whether to join or not to join. After some serious tots, i came with a conclusion. The membership fee is slightly exp, but a simple calculation will find that if i decide to come on a regular basis, it will cost me $5-$7 per entry. In other words, i find it worthwhile. I did the sums myself and not under the "marketing speech" from the consultant. The consultant was pro, informed me the relevant infor that i needed. Need to commend him for his professionalism.
Anyway, the place is an exclusive gym. Friendly environment, clean, new and more imptly less crowded than our SSC. Really cannot stand those kids and uncles who hog to the machines forever. Now whenever i have a free day from work, i will CONFIRM make a trip down to paragon. Will utilise the showering, steam bath, sauna facilities. I feel damn shiok after the workout just now.
Enough of selling, hee.... My colleagues commended on my new hairstyle. wow! quite amazingly, pple like my new hair. Most said i look younger and some even said quite stylo. Aiyoh, i must really thank that malaysian hair dresser for her magnificient skills. Wait till my dear sees it... hahaha......

New Haircut
Went scouting for a nice salon with a good haircut. Eventually end up in Centrepoint Janzten. Quite an established salons with many branches all over singapore as well as JB. Ha... The hair cut only cost $16 and i got a refreshing look. My mum like it a lot cos it makes me look younger. But my dad find it wierd. Well, he might be used to the long hair that i kept for 3 years. But dun get it wrong, my long hair was gone eversince i started work in july. Now becoming shorter as i want to look hip, young and trendy. ya rite!
I think this branch at centrepoint is the cheapest amongst others. A normal haircut in singapore in a salon cost between $25 to $30. Which means i got a DISCOUNT. It is human instinct to feel good after getting something affordable and cheap. hee... Personally, i think this hairstyle also suits me. Din really cut so short for more than 3 years. My head feels lighter and now looks younger. I may look 21 now.... ha....

Headache ah!
I think i have been working too hard which led to my headache. Aiyoh, i seldom get headache so easily. I had a good rest the nite before. Thus, it is unlikely due to insufficient sleep. Maybe due to the run that i had? i had an early run in the morning before coming to work. Still feel strange, cos i should feel better after the run and not the other way round. I was in tip top condition when i arrived in work but things got worse as time progressed into the night. I will sleep early to recover.
Anyway, my friend gave me a 1 week complimentary pass to fitness first and fitness first plus. My goodness, it worth $280. The downside is i need to use it before 30 Oct which is only 3days away. I will be making my reservation to pay a visit there probably on friday. ha... steam bath, jacuzzi, beautiful scenery, new equipment, less crowd etc. I am so looking forward. Wait till i try it out again for the second time. yeah!

Heart warming session!
Have been quite busy lately and was unable to update my blog. Moreover, something is not very right with blogspot. The server seems to be busy. I was unable to log in several times. Might be due to the heavy usage by many online bloggers like me. On Monday, met up with my 21 days not seen partner. Hee... Feel fantastic and great to have dinner with her at Jurong East. She has been busy with her exams and projects. I think she deserves a few hours rest to break off from the cycle for a while. There i am, to present her with gossips, rubbish to help her cope with her "extruciating" stress. heh, hope i din double her stress.
My colleague came back from Bintan and updated me abt the place. hmm... was pretty tempted to go. A check on the website revealed that the accommodation cost $135 per nite. Looks pretty reasonable. However, the food there is slightly expensive. After all, the place is a resort catered for Singaporean. Can you imagine Bintan actually accept Sing dollars. So, there must be quite a substantial number of singaporeans there. Will consider but i am also contemplating on a possible retreat to Penang's batu ferringhi. Also a beach resort. Aiyah, will consult the money contributor to see if he is interested. Then i will make a final decision!!!

Mum is back!
She arrived in Singapore ard 7 plus in the evening. My nephew was running ard and jumping up and down when he saw my mum. ha... Well, he din see her for almost a month. He got excited when my mum walked out of the immigration area. Before picking my mum up, i had dinner with jordan(my nephew) and my sis at the airport. As usual, young kid like him cannot sit still. He needs to nudge, fiddle ard, talk while eating. Aiyoh! His mum got a bit impatient and reprimanded him. ha... No choice lar, boys are like these.
Think my mum had a good trip to Nanjing. She visited many temples and went for several procession. In total, she spsnt almost 5k. Quite a substantial sum of money. My dad sponsored her almost 75% of her travelling expenses. I heard she got to stay in Hilton and Riz Carlton in Nanjing lor. Really good leh. No wonder her 14days trip is so exp but definitely enjoyable. She came home telling us tons of stories. Fortunately, she din buy rubbish things back. She said not enough money to buy cos she donated a lot. oops! As long as she likes, she can do whatever she wants lor.

Long Awaited Gathering
Met up with my ntu gang this evening. Ed made a special appearance today by flying all the way from thai. ha... Think the last time we met was more than 6 weeks ago. As usual, came out to gossip, condemn abt our work and bosses. I think that is the life of working executives. Weekend is the best time for us to meet and blast negative remarks on the company. Ate at Sushi Teh and find that the curry rice they served is quite nice. (to me lar) Maybe i can try the others next time.
This morning was pretty challenging for me. I slept for 2 hrs before heading for work. Was home ard 2am but slept at 3am cos my hair was wet. Had great fun with qiang and ken. Yesterday, it was my turn to lead everyone in the platform. ha... getting bolder. Sort of challenge each other in the platform lar. but i am not that pro compared to others. Some are really very good. Thumbs up! I am just an apprentice. Probably as times progress, i will improve.ha....

Boogie Boogie on Friday
Heh heh. Yup, going to my favourite haunt tonight under the invitation of our kind wei kheong. We missed out all the fun last week. Y? cos we din go to liquid room as requested by him. I was invited to a gathering session with my classmates while ken was out wif his family. I think it should be an enjoyable nite outing. We have been pretty tone down over this few days. Guess it was due to all the work that we are having. ha... never ending work. If there is ending work, then there will be no job for us liao. hee...
Woke up pretty early this morning and head to the gym. I am surprised to see many people working out. Most are between the age of 40s to 50s. I think it is good for them to keep a healthy body. Felt fresh and rejunvenated after the work out. Really sweat a lot. Office is pretty peaceful this afternoon. Maybe everyone is anticipating the weekend. I am too but still need to work tomolo. yaks! wat to do, the nature of the job lah.

Scream Fest 04 @ Fort Canning
Went for the premiere with Gavin to catch the latest korean movie The Doll Master. It was quite a "meant to scare you" type of movie and quite silly at times. However, the exciting part was my first outdoor movie. I have never catch movie under the open nite sky with trees, mats, gloomy clouds (fortunately it din rain), the exterior of suntec city view were right in front of me. ha... quite a fresh experience for me and gavin. Moreover, it was an entirely new movie, it became an added advantage.
From what i understand, most outdoor screenings were old or outdated movies. Thanks to the tickets from my company. I should call it staff benefit or welfare. BUT not as powerful as ken's benefit. His is really ultimate, his company treat them to spa, foot reflexlogy and great food. Where to find this type of employer?? I will keep a lookout to see if there are positions available. hmm....

SBS Transit "Gracious" move
Din blog for sometime cos i was either too tired or forget to do it. Anyway, i was quite pissed with the transport system offered by the largest public operator SBS. Thanks you for spicing up my life with full of surprises. I was rushing to work when i missed the LRT. I think most pple have this experience. When u want to take a bus or train urgently, you will always missed it. Then the irritating part is, the train in the opposite direction will arrive for sure. How can? Testing my patience rite? But when i need to take the oppt direction train, it will not be here, instead the other side will arrive. AIYOH!!! Maybe i am just unlucky.
Then, the stupid NEL. Yes, it made my life easier as i need a shorter time to travel into the city. But waiting can be patient testing. Their frequency is like 7min on wkday, 10min on wkend. And wat, they charged us more than the usual MRT services from SMRT. How come? They are the monopoly for Northeast line. Where is the so called "competition"? Another thing, I began to doubt their ability to coordinate the timing between the NEL and LRT. They are always miserably coordinated, u will either miss the LRT or NEL. I realised it on many occasion, when u rushed to the platform, the door of the train just closes leaving a disgusted look on your face. A large operator like SBS Transit should have tons of resources to improve on their services. Do they really care or plainly lazy cos they are the only operator for Northeast Line? PLS DO SOMETHING!!!

Dull and Blue Monday??
With exams creeping in, working executive going to work after their 5 day wk ended last wk, everyone is having low morale on the first day of the week. To make things worse, the weather is so gloomy and dull this morning. I am also feeling quite tired from last night, guess din have enough sleep as usual. Woke up early and grumbled as i brushed my teeth. ha... ya rite, waking up earlier than most Singaporeans.
My dear is not feeling too well. hmm... i told her i have to assume the role of the sun to brighten her day. ha... can i? probably before taking over, i will turn into a roasted pig or if better, i can become Mr louis khoo. Oh pls, i know pple r throwing up. Seriously, sometimes we are under tremendous pressure from various sources. The most impt thing is how to cope and deal with it. Lecturing again! Good, I think i am getting old and starts to nag and give speeches. ok, everyone smile, u will live longer and happier!!!

Exorcist - The Beginning
Watch this movie with Ken this afternoon. I was quite skeptical at first cos din really receive positive feedback from the movie. But it was a great show. I enjoyed the twist, suspense, horror and thrill portray in the movie. The guy who sat in front of me jumped up of his chair in one of those scene. ha... so the movie is pretty scary... As usual, the film is full of religious stuff. Roman catholic, christians and more christians. Yar, it is a hollywood production and majority of US citizens believe in "western" religion. I have noticed that they seldom feature movies on Asian religions. Probably to them, our religion are fantasy, mysterious and overly superstitious.
The entire stretch along Orchard Rd was so empty and quiet. I think most students are mugging at home for their up coming exams. As a result, we dun see many students who made up majority of the crowd hanging there. I noticed only tourists, working executives and likely school drop outs form the crowd. Weekend has ended and a new working week has begun. Look forward to cos my mum is coming back in a weeks time. Miss her cookings. hee....

Gathering at KJ place
Finally get to visit KJ hse after knowing him for 6 years. A very large and beautiful hse situated at the extreme corner of Singapore. Met up wif friends like Gavin, yvette, larry and chin yin. Thanks to KJ for providing an excellent place for us to meet. Yar, not forgetting the steamboat that we had. It was delicious and i gobbled many chicken wings and drumstick. hee....
Seriously, i like this kind of gathering. A simple yet heartwarming session. We meet once in a while to update each other on our life and job. Hear lots of interesting stories esp chin yin's teaching experience. They are my closest uni friends that i get along wif very well. It is fortunate of me to get to know them. If possible, we should keep in contact, cos friends like them are hard to come by. Too bad ed was not ard. Miss his tok cock power.hahaha.... anyway, when is the next outing??? hmmm....

Fit and Healthy
Yup yup, broke my record and swam 25laps this afternoon. Began to feel more healthy esp when i became tanner each time i took a dip in the pool. And for the first time, i swam without goggles. ha... what an excitement. I used to feel uneasy when i swam without goggles. After i tried it out for myself, wow, it was so cool to swim without goggles. Will try it again next time!!!
I was tanning at the poolside when i saw a flock of birds hanging ard the pool. I din really care but after a while, i see more and more flying by, then they attempted to dive into the water. My goodness. Some were drinking while others were having a good time 'bathing". The life guard came and shoo the birds away. Then he told me the birds might urinate in the water. I was in the pool this time, got a shock and jumped out immediately. yarks! He said the birds might dirty the pool and irritate our skin. I felt disgusted and proceed to the shower room. Cleansed myself thoroughly with tons of shower cream and shampoo. Now i know y the pool is doing badly with minimal number of patrons.

A life in exchange for an unfaithful relationship
That was what happened to the poor little girl who died few days ago. I remembered when i reported the news the other day, felt so helpless and pity for that little girl. How on earth could a man's unfaithfulness turn out to be a terror? I began to wonder what is so special abt this garang guni man (girl's father) that deserves the love of an ex air stewardess? The mum was right, it was her husband's fault but why should it vent it out on a young girl who probably din even know who that "auntie" was. I guess the mum must have cried her heart out. She looks so sad and devastated when CNA interviewed her. Both the daughter and wife are innocent parties.
I feel so terrible as a man. You marry your wife to love her. She borne u your child, take care of the family, been a faithful wife. And the guy, ya, wants more sex other than what his wife could give. Is that rite? Man have forever unsatisfying lust and keep preying for new targets. It makes man so vunlerable. The man has commited a mistake that even he himself can never forgive. I think it is a good chance for them to return to bangkok and do some "chan hui" or ask for forgiveness. If any unfaithful man happen to read this as well, better think carefully the next time. It may happen to you or even in a more terrible state. BEWARE!

Cheryl Fox got arrested!
The babe of Channel Newsasia cum classmates of my friends had been arrested and sent for urine test. My goodness, the diva for Brainiest Kid might be consuming drugs. Can you believe that? wat a controvesy. She was the host of the several intellectual program but ended up taking drugs. I think many fans of hers must be very disappointed when they learn abt this. I was in a shocked when i read the papers.
Then saw Glenda's chong expression when she reported the news of her fellow colleague. It is really sad and disturbing. She is doing pretty well over at mediacorp as a newcaster. She has X factor and speaks with good conviction. Why would she want to risk her career? Her career needs someone who is highly credible. Her image is now tarnish unless the CNB officers prove otherwise. Although her urine test is not out, she is more or less affected by this incident. I hope she will not follow the footstep of exMediacorp artise Liu Ling ling (former star search winner 97) who was caught having drugs. She later faced termination from the company. The second person that i could think of is Shankar Aiyar. He is still in jail for molesting. Wat has the world come to in this media field?

Hungry hungry
Have been having hunger pangs eversince my mum left for China. This morning, i did not have anything to eat before coming to work. Although i bought lunch later, the serving was too small for a big eater like me. Miss my mum's food and the endless servings that i am entitled to. To curb my hunger, i ate all sorts of rubbish that i can find in the office. Dun get me wrong, i eat only edible food k. Ate tidbits which i dun usually eat, keep glupping water etc in a bid to answer my stomach call.
Dun tempt me with all that delicious, mouth tasty, saliva drooling food. A hungry man is an angry man. So i should take happy meal. ha... I should be able to eat up to 3 happy meals now. ha... Will be leaving off soon for home and food. I still need to catch a 35min train ride b4 gobbling food down my throat. hiya....

Adam Cheng in Clubfitt?
Yes, it was him. I am 100% sure it was him. I was working out this morning when i bumped into this guy who looks familiar to me. I took abt 15 mins before i realise who he was. Yeah, cynthia koh's ex cum channel u hunk 詹 金 泉。 Strange enough, why would an artise like him visit a public gym. Of course it is perfectly normal for anyone to go since we called it a public gym. But the strange thing is he is an artise, i mean, most of them will not choose to visit a public gym given a choice. Maybe he is not popular, not many pple noticed him. I think the other gymmers out there are more concern about body building.
I was quite pissed initially cos the gym was so crowded with those body builders. They colonised the entire gym with groups of friends, talking abt muscles and diets, hogging on to stations and free weights. I was cursing.ha.. then saw this guy who kept working on his bicep. I wanted to use the weights that he was using. Oh then i realised, it was adam. I suddenly felt like laughing, ha... strange reaction. Thanks for hogging on to the weights for so long. Maybe i should feel "honoured" working out next to him. I think girls will be longing for that. Do you think i care? ha.... Now, dun ask me which clubfitt branch was that. If not more pple will start crowding that area.

Sunday Rocks!
Great weather in Singapore today. As usual, head to the pool for a good swim b4 meeting my close friends. Anyway, i agree wif blueberry mushroom. People have different ways of relieving stress. Besides clubbing, i love to exercise to forget the stress at work. Meeting up wif friends for an afternoon tea was equally fulfilling. Met hao, his gf, jim and ken. It has been a very long time since i met hao and jim. Got to know more abt jim's relationship after he enlightened us wif his story. I did not know how to react when he told me his stuff.
Classic Answer:
"Complicated", "No definite answer to who is right or wrong in a relationship"
I hope he knows what is best for him. He is old enough to make mature decisions. As a friend, we will give you our support as long as it does not involved criminal stuff. I do really wonder how does one define love for a second time. I had my defination while others may disagree. In short, do as u deem fit.
Before i left for my tan in the afternoon, i caught the tv broadcasting the live telecast of Republic of China's National Day or "Shuang Shi Jie". While listening to the speech by Taiwan's president Chen Shui Bian, I really got more worried for Taiwanese. He is really leading them to the wrong path. Yes, it might be true that most Taiwanese wants independence. But it will be at a great expense. Chen has said that he is willing to accept any form of governance as long as the majority wants him to. But will he honour his words if most wants a reunification?
If i remembered correctly, there was a vote on whether the president is given the authority to launch an attack on China out of defence, the majority voted against. Something is amiss. The ROC govt is still unable to see. Wat they have always dream is independence, they have never consider the benefits of reunification except less demorcacy. But look at HK, although they have less democracy, they are still enjoying great economic benefits. This is wat Taiwan will never be able to fall back on if they decide to break away from the mainland. Moreover, no body will recognise their independence even if they choose to declare. Why make yourself in a difficult position? Maybe i am not a revolutionist, so i can never understand.
Classic Answer:
"Complicated", "No definite answer to who is right or wrong in a relationship"
I hope he knows what is best for him. He is old enough to make mature decisions. As a friend, we will give you our support as long as it does not involved criminal stuff. I do really wonder how does one define love for a second time. I had my defination while others may disagree. In short, do as u deem fit.
Before i left for my tan in the afternoon, i caught the tv broadcasting the live telecast of Republic of China's National Day or "Shuang Shi Jie".

De-stress with friends
Well well, always talking abt stress at work. But it is true, when one starts to work, we always complain on the level of stress. Come on, i am trying to cope and by blogging i am able to complain about my work. ha... Went out with my usual gang on this evening. Realise one of them had some medical problem which results in getting stress easily. To curb that, other than the talk cock session, we head for clubbing.
I am glad he managed to relieve all his stress on the dance floor. Got worried when i first saw him. He was in a state of "blurness" not from work but from his medication. Thankfully, he felt so much better after the whole session. The music made us so high that we staged a performance on the platform. ha.... cool rite. Our dear friend was like the star dancer, leading all of us including other clubbers in the dance. I thought that was cool. We had great fun dancing, shouting, talking nonsense and even singing. I think working executive like us really need some time to release all the tension that has been bottled up throughout the entire week. The much anticipated releasing of tension made us a deflated balloon after the event. We were tired but had a fantastic night. Agree?

Happy Thursday!
Had a great time at work today. My colleagues were cracking jokes in the midst of rushing for our work. I kind of like this type of environment. The reason is simple, you feel stress but your colleagues are ard to help you out. They can make a difference in your working life. We see each other for 8 hrs per day for almost 5 consecutive days. It is impt to maintain a healthy relationship wif colleagues. I am lucky cos they are kind and good people.
Did some admin work which was left undone for many months. I think i will need a few days b4 i can finish up everything. My poor senior has been asking and i volunteered to help her. This will speed up her work and for the benefits of everyone in the dept. Need to go home soon as the office has returned to peace after some commotion just a short while ago. In less than 12 hrs, i will be back. Y? Morning shift again!

Love is ....
Met up an old friend of mine today. He brought his partner along and well, kind of amaze me. Sometime i really wonder, how does one define love? Is everyone equal under the umbrella of love? To me, i would say yes. But to the society, it might be a big no.
There are many forms of relationship going ard. I respect their decision as they have their right to choose what they like. As long as they are happy, it should be fine. The problem is the society or the norm disagree verociously. It is politically incorrect. God did not meant it that way. But there are pple who just prefer alternatives. So wat is love all abt? To me, love is to understand each other, stand by each other, listen to each other, help each other. Maybe i am just a simple guy with a simple mind. I am not as flamboyant as pple who loves "hong hong lie lie" type of relationship. I like to hug my little girl, listen to her voice, see her feeling happy. I am so satisfied. This simple guy is fortunate. ha. I realise i am so in love. :)

Vann Fan is a disappointment!
I am a fan of his but sad to say, what he had done recently is really disappointing. So wat? He urinated openly and indiscreetly in the public. My goodness. He is an artise and the way he behaved is such a disappointment. How did he end up urinating openly? Well, he was drunk. Paparazzi followed him to some alley. He was seen hugging wif his colleagues. The next thing they saw was he urinated publicly. I feel that there is nothing wrong to go out for a drink wif friends, hugging, or even urinating (but not in the public of course).
However, as an artise, this is not the correct way. He has sold his freedom for money. People are scrutinizing him every moment. He should have controlled the amount of liquor he drank. Everyone has his own limits, as long as you dun cross that, u are safe. For him, he cannot be bothered. The morale of the story is artises put on masks whenever they go. They behave differently on media and privately. I knew that long ago, just find it hard to accept that Fan Yicheng or Vann, who looks so innocent is behaving in the wrong way. Looks are deceiving. It's true!

Tanning Day
It was a great monday. Some people might be having monday blue but a no no for me. I worked early in the morning and get to go off early. Weather was perfect in the afternoon. Finally get to see Mr Sun after so many days. Went for a fabulous tan in the afternoon while enjoying the nourishment from the sun. Felt so beach boy although it is by the pool side. hee... It has been a very long time since i last had my tan. I was thinking of visiting the beach. Miss the sun, sand and sea. Working is really taking away many of our leisure time. Think the beach is more suitable for students than working adults.
Pathetic. but i would not miss any oppt if i could ever lay my foot on any of the beaches. hmm... Maybe i should head to Phi Phi or some Thai beaches again. I think those across the causeway are also not bad. Theirs are really powerful, not as our dearest Sentosa which is so man made. But true, at least better than nothing. It is the only beach that is so well received by young singaporeans. Anyway, speaking of overseas beaches, when can i go for my travelling again??

Together Forever
Yeah yeah. Had a good rest and sleep sufficiently enough to gear up for another session of retro and techo later. I think ken and qiang r so "onz" and rsvp wif me early this morning. I think we are all too stress. One of them overwork at one of the largest listed company in Singapore while the other over studied at the oldest tertiary institution here. Me, same, face the same kind of usual stress from colleagues, my listeners and definitely BOSS. I think the music really allow us to forget everything for that few hours.
I had quite a tough morning too. The stupid computer was protesting so badly that i need to restart more than 3-4 times. Fortunately, i was not in a hurry to deliver my work. If not, i will be in trouble. People are resting on the weekend, enjoying their precious break. I am here working early in the morning from 6am. Think i really need a break from all these.....

Pleasurable Friday
Although i did not get a good sleep last nite, i feel very pleased and happy today. For a simple reason, yeah, met up wif jun at harbourfront in the evening. So good to see her and i managed to help her solve some of her academic problem. Hopefully it was useful. Was shopping around that area when we saw Virgo. Feel like hopping onboard the cruise wif her and leave everything behind for the time being. Too much stress and work. hee... Once again, i also overcome my stress by buying some discounted items. Yes, bought 2 Asics singlets for only $35. That is cheap lor, 1 cost ard $17, and the material is so smooth and silky. Good for gym user like me. ha....
On the way back, met a NTU classmate. Wow, he is now working at MAS. I think it is the most presitgious place for any Banking and Finance student to work in. Moreover, it is our honour to work under the great leadership of Senior Minister Goh. How nice. If i could step into MAS to work, it is really a blessing. Nah, i dun think i stand a chance. They want scholars and top students. Too bad, i belong to the average kind. No choice but to search for other potentials. However, i am still quite happy abt the current job. Interesting, dynamic and fast paced. Need to go catch some rest. Have to work in the morning again.
