An enjoyable nitz, we manage to get tat bday boy drunk by tossing wif him to drink one after the other. Haha...

New Year Camp Gathering @ :: jiE ? :: house...

Some things to update in the first place be4 i go into my gathering details.

On Saturday morning, ard 0310HRS, i start walking from my workplace to my home. Wow... a long walkaton for mi. I walk from Ubi, to Paya Lebar, to Macpherson, then to Jalan Toa Payoh, be4 i cross the bridge to my house area. The whole walking journey takes mi abt 1hr 20mins to complete. Wow... tis journey can be consider as dangerous too, coz from Macpherson there walk to Jalan Toa Payoh, there is no concrete pavement for mi to walk, so i walk at the side of the road, sticking close to the bushes at the side. The cars juz came "Sushess..." like flashes, and i hve to be veri careful, else i may kana hit by a car. Perhaps, next time i try running from my workplace to home, see wat's the timing. Heehee...

Yaya... now is my gathering details. At the start, i am veri pissed off by my dept head. I hve told him one week ago liao tat i am hving a gathering at Saturday nitz, n ask him not to touch mi. Yet he call mi in the morning saying tat i be working at 7pm for today. 7pm leh, meaning i may hve to work until veri late nitz. Tis is totally ridiculous. Then i sms him telling him tat 7pm is a little too off for mi lor. And tis is wat he sms mi, saying tat i DEFINITELY hve to work at nitz for today. I can choose to come at a later timing, since i hve the keys, but i muz help to kill the prints in the nitz so tat the production plp can do the installing at tmr. I see tis sms, then feel veri hot, nowhere to verge my anger. Tat's why i sms to my frenz, saying tat i can onli be coming at 11++. Haiz.... Luckily things doesn't turn out so bad as i tot. The previously nitz, i hve help to kill more than half of the Orchard banners liao, thus the remaining numbes to be printed is not a lot. Thus, when i take over the shift duty at 5pm, i chop chop finish everything by 6pm liao. Then i call to my dept head telling him tat all prints r done n ask him if i can go at 7pm. He says okie... then off i go. Tat y i manage to reach my frenz's house for gathering @ 8++. Safe.

Quite a big gathering for yesterday. Let mi recall who hve come. There r Ryan, his gf, OBS, Joseph Chua n his wife, Puar, James, Sylvestor, Jinfa, Hongcheng, Kerk, WeiCheng, YiHao, Zhiwei, Kit, Edwin, Tho, Weifu, Chew TT, Ah Poh, Lawrence and Derrick. A huge group of camp mates indeed. I came too late, thus they start playing marjong liao. Luckily Weijie hve another set of marjong tables, then i find another 3 players, n then we start playing. Wow... YiHao gamed wif a "5 tiles" juz in the first round. Wow... so steady... Basically i lost in tat game. Actually, i lose the moz in tat game of marjong, luckily i gamed wif a "4 tiles" at the closing end, which save mi from losing too much. But i still lose $19 after all. How come i keep losing marjong at tis new year festival huh????

By the time we complete ur game, i tink is after midnitz liao... many hve left. Those remaining ones, we sat ard the staircase n chat until 3++. We chit chat from outfield to the current A1. We oso chat abt the coming AOE tat tis batch of A1 is going for. One thing tat Joseph chua says is Ah Chu. He says tat for tis time after AOE come back, i muz take photo for A1, coz the previous batch of A1 keep complaining tat they did not take photo for us after AOE come back. Haha... we did complain, they say will take photo for us at outfield, say until now, until we ORD, oso didn't take a single photo for us, wat a lamer person.

At ard 3++, everyone start to go home liao, n i stay at my frenz's house overnitz. Then i sleep sleep sleep until 11++, be4 i wake up n take bus 153 from Serangoon to home. Wat a tired day.

Wat am i looking forward for, for the next gathering??? Tat will be a KTV session. Heehee... Mr Singapore Idol need practice oso... Haha...

My feelings...

Arrggghhh..... juz done a super long OT last nitz... working an extra of 5 hrs of OT. Last week, my company is not operating. It is my company official break week for all staff. Thus, my entrire last week, haha... i didn't go to UBI at all. So when i do tis super long OT last nitz, tis feeling is like veri long time didn't experience liao... it is a kind of frustrating feeling.

My dept head ask mi to reach company earlier yesterday, n i do as he requested. Wow... 8 jobs on the table awaiting mi then. These jobs appear like a huge mountain in front of mi. I reali hate tis kind of feeling. It is like work can never be done finish, yet there is always so many work to do.

I reali wants my tis weekend untouch, but i receive news tat tis weekend may hve OT, coz there are hundreds of Orchard banners tat is pending on tray. I reali hve bad feeling. Haiz...

Sometimes, i find it is a miracle for mi to stay in tis kind of company for so long. Tis is not the kind of working environment i hoping for in the first place. Yet, i can still stay in tis company for close to three months liao. My frenz who studied similar course as mi, is not working happily in their new working environment. Haiz... if their company is good, they can help to pull m\mi into their company, saving mi from tis hot soup. During my stay in tis company, i hve seen two colleagues, leaving tis company, and one kana sack by boss. I dun tink they will feel sad leaving tis company, they may be celebrating for tat. Sometimes, i reali look into money, but if money will actually spoil the plans i hve for my life, i may make an exception for it.

I do look forward for a kind of working environment in which the boss is friendly, n will tok to his staff, or at least greet each other, like Good Morning. But for my tis boss, Kenneth, i hve never tok to him before, from the day i start work till now. He always carry a firm, fierce, angry face, dun even noe whose he's angry at. Tat y, when i see his face looks like charcoal, i will ask my dept head, if there is anything happened juz now. As long as it is none of my business... then as if i care abt him.

I feel tis company is running around the "S" $ sign everyday. Wat the boss concern is job n income. Wat other department plp care is oso their business. Honestly said, I am oso such a person, but i dun mind helping others, as long as they dun give mi any atitude. Like last nitz, my sales colleague came in wif a veri last minute banner, size is 28FT by 6FT, and the artwork will onli be sent in at 9pm. I dun mind helping plp, if they dun try to be picky on mi. Back to my statement, "wat other department plp care is oso their business". My dept head told mi to leave at 7am in the morning for today. Thus... blah blah blah... i do wat i can then, leaving the rest for morning shift. Tis is my original plan. But, the production plp came in @ 6am, then they tell mi tat the Bossini thing need to send out at 9am... meaning, i need to help them to print all finish be4 i can go. WOW... tat cause mi to work until 8++am... tiring man...

Events of mi during my Lunar New Year Week...

Haha... i hve not update my blog from a long time.

Many things happen in tis wk... To start wif Sng's departure to AUS for his studies... REALI hope to see him back from AUS during his holidays. And i do hope tat he dun play play there... concentrate on studies... coz u spend quite a huge sum for studying there. He told mi tat he has settle his temperory loggings there liao, but it is DAMN expensive, 1 week for AUS$400. Sng is staying wif another room mate, meaning tis cost shall be split half. But it is still veri expensive to pay AUS$800 for loggings a month. Wow... I believe when Sng reach there, he has his laptop, but he dun hve the intrenet connection. I hope he will quickly subscribe to any internet connection services there, so tat he can get himself online @ MSN, n chat wif us, telling us abt his wonderful stay in AUS.

Monday is Valentine Day... Haha... i ended up went to a gathering organised by HKS, call the Bachelor Nitz... Haha... tis simply show how pathetic we these bunch of guys r... It is Valentine Day, yet we dun hve a partner to go out wif.

I forget when i toking abt tis conversation wif my camp mates liao. Initially they brought up the topic, n i listen. I am veri agreed wif wat they say. They toking abt, r they still in contact wif their ex-girlfrenz. Frenz An says he totally didn't contact her back liao. Frenz We says he did occasionally chat wif her thru MSN, but the reply she answer back is rather hostile. I totally agree wif tat. Coz i once reali like tis gal alot. I lost contact wif her for a long time. Now, i finally get in contact wif her. Thus i will like to start building a strong firm friendship wif her. I try to chat wif her in MSN, but the replies she gave back is rather hostile, or should i say is not sinerce at all. Wat i feel is tat she dun even wan to entertain mi thru MSN. Thus, now i onli veri veri occasionally chat wif her, like once a week onli. Haiz.... Why r pretty gals like tat...???

Seriously tinking back, many of my frenz, regardless camp mates or sec frenz, many broke off wif their partner. Their mood, i believe is complicated, n reali need time to heal back. Anyway... i can swear here tat i will lend u my ears if u reali need to verge or rather say, tok to someone abt ur sorrows etc...

YES, another thing. I ask my frenz to bot Suikoden 4 game ("Chong") for mi from Malaysia, but when i see it releasing in Comics Connection, i reali could not resist the temptation n buy the original, which cost mi $85. My $$$ for tis month is meeting its ends liao... yet i go ard spending... Haiz... Bo Bian... i reali like tis game alot.

After playing first few chapters of Suikoden 4 game, i went to read the online preview given by others on tis game. Wat they say is tat for tis game which is designed in 3D, they hve learnt their lesson from Suikoden 3, remove the negative weakness, n add new things to make tis game much better. But wat others say abt tis game is tat the stobryline for tis game is too short, not even enough to drench the thirst of every game players. I reali can see wat these online plp r trying to say. I oso afraid tat tis game may disappoint mi in terms of their storyline. Comparing all the series of Suikoden, Suikoden 2 is the best in terms of game play. Suikoden 3 is the best in terms of storyline. So wat will Suikoden 4 be??? Let mi continue to play be4 i state my conclusion for tis game.

Tis sat is Chingay @ Orchard, somemore Ken Chu will be at Cineleisure KBox. So i believe Sat Orchard will be veri crowded. My frenz call mi out for movie on Sat. I reply her back i'm working on tat time slot, which is true. However, i somehow see or sense some changes going on in my department, which may affected my working hrs on Sat. Somemore, i still need to go "Bai Nian" @ Weijie's house on Sat... Hmm... see how i plan my Sat program.

Haha... juz now i try to walk from my working place which is @ Ubi Av3, to Macpershon Road. Wow... take mi 40mins to reach there. I even take my breakfast at a Muslim shop there... eating Roti Prata n Tea Tarik... Hmm... as i guess, if i am to walk from my working place back to my home, it should be less than 90minutes... Hmmm.... worth trying... hee.....

A huge secondary frenz gathering...

Wow... i juz went to my sec frenz house for a CNY gathering... wow... her mom cook alot of things for us to eat. We ate ur dinner at her house, eating steamboat. Her mom cook curry chicken, prepare all sorts of steamboat food, all sorts of new year tibits to entertain us. Her father "jio" us to drink his fav XO wine, which he kept for 20++ years. Wow... tat wine is so strong tat i can even smell it when my frenz is holding next to mi. Veri strong, is equally strong as the "Gao Liang" tat i drank during my platoon chalet @ DownTown East. Her father pour the wine into glass liao... we oso peiseh to tell him we dun drink tat much... thus LL muz drink tat. Of coz i use eat drink eat drink technique to prevent mi from getting drunk.

Yaya... today i met back many old frenz tat i am not contacting for a long time. Adrian, Leonard, Shanker, Faddy, Pang Hwee n Sandra. Wow... Sandra change alot... how to say... no longer the cute face i used to see in the past. Now her face changed until like looking mature liao. Shanker has gone "fat" liao, can't believe tat he is used to be the skinny guy in my class. Looks how SAF can train the sign-on personnels to gone "fat".

Luck is neutral today. I lost some money when playing blackjack wif them. During the game, Sandra (Ooops, i forget to say tat the house i going today is Sandra's house)'s mom join in, n she is veri "dare". She play wif a lot of guts to add cards even if she noe tat her chances of getting good cards to make up 21 points is veri low. But she's so lucky coz she always get the cards she betting for. Even the banker, Faddy, was kana stun by her.

Next we continue playing Marjong... Hoohoo... I tink i win a little at the end of the game. Sandra's mom played next table, wif a lot of enthusiasm. Hooohooo... "Niu Zhong Hao Jie".

Everyone look grown up liao... start discussing buying car, buying house, saving for future etc... Faddy juz bot a 140K car, n Sandra juz bot a private house for 300++K... wow... They r so daring n so rich... planning for their future happiness liao... mi oso need to start tinking abt tis liao...

Okie today marjong still hve not cure my hand itch yet... looking forward to play overnitz @ Weijie's house... Heehee...

Jiro wishes every1 to have a Happi Lunar New Year...

Now, i getting older n older every year liao... tat i no longer hve the fun n enjoyment tat i used to hve for collecting red packets liao... But for tis year new year, i'm am still happy, coz i still went out for lunar gathering wif my frenz... which helps to make my tis festival season mood impressively good...

On Monday, my whole day is basically spent wif my Sec Frenz. I hve fly them many times of aeroplane tat i reali hve to present myself on Monday, else i tink i may be bash by them one day if they meet mi...

We went to a place called Olio Dome @ Suntec, around the fountain there. I STRONGLY DISCOURAGE anyone to go there for their meals... coz the food is veri bad... Okie wat i mean by bad... the food amount is pathetic, can't even make my stomach 30% full (i order a set meal they listed in their menu)... The type of set meals available r so limited or rather little, the cost is so expensive, tat i dun feel worthing it after hving tat meal. My frenz, Jess, even hving difficulties eating her fish... (*cackle*) She's the one suggesting to hve the meal here, n she's the first one to dislike the food. I dun reali give a good rating for the food from tis restaurant either. The onli thing tat is good abt tis restaurant is the ambience of tis restaurant, the rest... haiz...

After tat we went to Coffee Bean for some chatting, be4 we change ur next venue to the K-Box @ Suntec... Hahaha... i am so happi, coz i hve not being singing KTV for at least 4 months liao... However, the gals want to sing so much tat, the awaiting list r all their songs, i onli manage to sing some songs... pathetic... not even enough to save mi from the itch i hve for singing... I find tat the songs for K-Box is neither new too... Their database consist of so many unknown singers to mi... and the songs they hve in their "New Songs" page, doesn't look new to mi either... Honestly saying... isit becoz the database tat K-Box outlet hve is veri limited, or r all K-Bos outlets now, dun hve new songs tat the YES 933 r playing now...???

After singing... we went to a bar called Harry Bar @ Esplanade. The gals wanted to drink wine badly... I dun reali remember wat we order for ur wines alreali... We order two jugs of different mixed wine. The one tat i am drinking is not bad... my frenz says tat wine is a little bitter, but it is okie wif mi. As for the gals, they r drinking something tat looks like milk shake... but of coz wif some wine mix into it. Another frenz join us, Yagami Sim. He order a Fish n Chips, which look so tempting to we guys. Coz we did not hve a full lunch previously @ Olio Dome, thus we oso make the same order. Wow... the gals's drink is so simple n diluted tat yet, out if the three, two is down. Their face r completely red, n appears drunk to mi. We need to escort them home. They do not hve enough training lah... so easily drunk. Anyway... i have a new day on Monday.

Haha... now comes to yesteday... Tuesday, Lunar New Year Eve... Steamboat @ my house. A lot to eat. Beer... noooo, coz my parents wun allow mi to get drunk in the eyes of them... A lot of preparation done juz to get tis steamboat thingy up. Eat eat eat is all i can do to help my Mom to finish up the food... Heeheee....

Broke...

Haha... i juz got my salary n i'm broke so fast...
Basically i used the money to buy new year clothes, present for frenz...etc...
Yesterday, went shopping at Orchard, from NgeeNan City, to Paragon, Hereen and then to CentrePoint... walk here and there, looking for jeans tat i feel suitable, and oso looking for shoes.

Perhaps i start buying too late liao, many designs tat i select, dun hve my size. For example, i decide to buy a Nike black n white color shoes after browsing n selecting for so long... then i try the 9-half size... a bit too small, then i ask the sales, and he told mi tat for tat design, 9-half is the biggest tat they hve now, other bigger sizes r all sold out liao... Wowowow...

Juz for last nitz... i spend 350++ juz for 4 items... it is juz like cutting my own flesh... but "bo bian", i oso need to buy some clothes for tis new year festival... Need to earn more next month to cover back my tis month outcome...

On Sat, juz went to my frenz farewell gathering. He's leaving Singapore on 12th Feb to Aus for studies... He is studying at New South Whales, for 3 years. I design n printed a A1-size photo frame as gift for him. Wow... cost mi quite some bucks, but worth it. The poster consist of all the photos he taken wifall his platoon frenz... errr.... except one person, and tat is OBS... Hope 2 see him soon at the end of tis yr... go see Harry Potter Part 4 wif him... Heehee...

Last minute...

Quite many days didn't write anything on my blog liao...
A couple of things to say...

First, i hve being wanting to watch "Aviator" ever since tis movie start showing... but either i am not free to watch, or i hve no companions to watch wif mi... But yesterday, i finally arrange a time slot for mi to watch tis movie be4 i go for work. I hear from radio boardcast tat Leonardo DiCaprio achieve a "Lifetime Achievement Award" from dunno which Movie Award Cermony. And i saw tis preview be4, quite impressive... thus... i hve great hopes for tis movie.

As for yesterday, since i hve the free time slot, i catch tis movie at the cinema near my house, alone. I watch tis movie, which is 2++hrs, close to 3hrs. Honestly said, i am not impressed by tis movie. Disappointed. Leonardo DiCaprio stared himself as Howard Hughes in tis film, which hve some mental mind problems... He like clean... thus he can't tolerate anything dirty to appear in front of him. For the whole movie, i dunno see how many scenes, showing Leonardo naked, of course naked in an angle, showing his buttocks onli. Stupid rit, naearly at the second half of the show, i'm being watching a male naked body... for wat... if he is acting a bed scene wif an actress... i dun mind such naked scenes... Next time is tat, even to the end of the story, his mental problems is not shown cured after all...

Initially, i tot Kate( staring by Ava Gardner ), was the lead female actress in tis film... but she, like the rest of the female actress, come n go veri fast off the screen. I am quite disappointed in the story, if the director placed the two person as an item in the end... at least the story will wrap up much nicer. Anyway, tis is how the film is filmed, n how i feel after watching it. I will onli give 6 out of 10 marks for tis movie.

Next time is to tok something abt my work. In the title of tis blog entry, it stated "Last minute..." Boss had said not to clinch any last minute job at the end of tis week anymore, coz starting from today, 5th February 2005, ur company staff were released for a 9 days break, and we will return work on the 14th February 2005. Yet, a sales colleague went to clinch a job wif her client, and tis job has to be out on Monday. Thus, i am "bullied" to do tis job. I reali hope tat her customer will be satisfied wif the proof i done for her yesterday, n approve on it, so tat i will onli need to go back tmr to bleed n print the actual, for the production team to fix the installing.

Lastly, another thing tat surprised mi yesterday, my colleague (i dun tink she is from sales, coz she dun clinch jobs wif clients) actually gave mi a red packet. I'm surprised, and feels tat she's reali "You Xin". And when i open it at nitz... wow... inside is $8... imagine she hve to give every colleague younger (she is slightly older than my mother liao) than her... wow, i dunno how much she will hve to spend... Her name is Evelyn (dunno got spell wrong anot)... i onli noe her name n remember it in last week. I been in tis company for more than two months liao.... n yet i still dun remember some of the gals' name. Basically, i do not get in contact wif them... next, i seldom tok to them. Thus, some faces i see many times, i juz dun reali noe their names... Ooops....
