RAT!!

Friday (21 Dec)

Reached office and saw a mail from Adrian, sent to me on Thurs. Saw his blog post this morning as well. All I can say is, thanx! I read ur blog too. :) Hope u r doing ok.

Had a very very very busy day. Busy til I totally blocked out everything and just worked non-stop except for a half-hour lunch. Sighz.. Had to control my bladder too! Didn't go toilet from 12pm-7pm. Was that bad. Had to cover 2 other colleagues who were on leave and I had to 2 days worth of work due to the holiday on Thurs. Was in such a state til Edmund gor got worried and kept telling me to relax. By the time I ended work, it was almost 9pm and was way too late to rush to hospital to visit Dad as the nurses don't open the door for us to go in. Sighz...

Met Howdy in town as he wanted to buy Xmas gift. Went to Taka basement for dinner. An exciting thing happened while we were there.. A mouse/rat was caught in the trap and jumping around! Several girls were shouting "Ratatouille" and I was still stoning til the commotion got bigger. The rat was just behind me!! Scary!!!
Howdy bought 2 boxes of Royce chocolates for me for Xmas! So sweet!! :) Thanks! Taka was almost closing when we left at 10.15pm and we were so afraid that Plaza Singapura would be closed by the time we reached there. Luckily the shop that we wanted to go to was still open. Managed to get the presents that he needed. :)
Didn't know what to do after that so we went to the cinema to take a look. Bought tix for "The Golden Compass" coz I've been wanting to watch the show. Hehe. Reached home at 2+am. So tired...
Saturday (22 dec)
Body clock having some problems. Woke up at 7.30am today. Been sleeping only 4-5 hours a day and I will wake up naturally. Not sure why. Sighz.. It's making me super tired. Sucks.
Visited Dad in the afternoon but he was fast asleep. Nurses and docs were all busy. Went for salsa practice and Ricky, my salsa instructor, want us to perform on stage for our D&D. He was very keen on the idea after I told him that my boss asked us to decide if we wanna take part. Seems like it's gonna be lots of practice and training for the next 3 weeks to make it in time for the performance. Stressful!!
Sent Cheryl back and Chris, Felix & I went for breakfast/lunch/tea. Came back to Toa Payoh to eat as I was meeting Khim to buy groceries. Went to NTUC after that and headed back to my place to put down the stuff. Visited Dad and he opened his eyes a few times which was good. He also responded by nodding and shaking his head. But Dad kept crying. Sighz.. I know what he is thinking. He doesn't want us or his friends to see him like that. It's an ego problem. Dad has got to learn to let it go.
Had prawn noodles at Lavender area then headed to Bugis to buy stuff at Watson's. Had dessert at Liang Seah St coz I insisted on having dumplings (tang yuan) as today (Saturday) is 冬至. It's a very big event in Cantonese calendar and dumplings is a must. :D Still remember how my family used to celebrate this day... I miss those days.
Proceeded to Prinsep St for some foorball action and to have beer. :p Enjoyed it!
K.. Need to sleep and get more rest. Gonna head to office earlier than usual on Monday and it's gonna be another hectic day. This coming week will be very hectic as we are still shorthanded. Need as much rest as possible. :p

Rumour

Went to a club at Clarke Quay last nite called Rumour with the regulars from Instinct. The club is kinda like Dragonfly but the music is not as good, the live band and singers were also not that good. The lead singer who is supposedly the most handsome has got a whiney voice when he sings. Shudders.. Think I still prefer DF anytime, any day. Reached home at 6 and slept at 6.30am.. Tiring.. I have been pubbing and clubbing 6 nites in a row.. Think I need to cut down and relax a bit. But, drinking is a form of relaxation coz I get to talk to friends and enjoy. :p Had a chat with Mingjie (another regular at Instinct) last nite. He truly impressed me by wooing the same girl for 7 years! He knew her 10 years ago, got together for 3 years, broke up and tried wooing her back for 7 years. It's truly fascinating. I'm amazed and at the same time, envious. No guy have ever wooed me for so long.. All just want me to be their gf within days or weeks. Any longer, they give up or pressure me ...

disappointed n jer's departure...

been a little disappointed with friends.. the term 'friends'.. what does it actually mean? someone u can talk to, someone who will be there for u? how many people can do that for a long time? i'm not very sure but i used to try n keep it contact with close friends in the past. i did all i could to stay in touch n find out what's going on in their lives so that our friendship can stay strong. however, that wasn't the case. 1 fine day, i finally decided to stop taking the initiative to remain in contact with them n the result was, they didn't bother either. what happened to the friendship between us? i'm not sure. but it takes 2 hands to clap n i don't understand y i always have to be the one who makes it happen. i've lost many friends coz of that. upset.. of coz i was. i've always treasured friendships but i don't see the point of hanging on if the friendship is so 1-sided. disappointed.. i've always believed that to be friends, we have to...
