It's the Festive Season again...

Ooh....Realized I wasn't updating my blog frequently. I think it has become a like a quarterly update.

Xmas is here again!! When did the Anything gals started having annual Xmas party?? Is it reaching our 10th year soon? This year's new way of exchanging gift doesn't seem to work out very well but it's ok. We shall do better next year!! I think it's quite challenging to buy the prezzies this time as there is no wish list for reference. I think I need to do some shopping soon.

I was so caught up in the festive mood and all that I forgot that I'm on night shift on Xmas week!! Haha..don't wory my hse is still available. I just hope that I can go back in time.

What is Santa gg to get me this year??

Jac...So fast you can take off your braces already?! It's like not even a year! Nway, I'm gg to Yilan and Taipei( Yes,Taipei again!! Haha..)

Haven't got time to update my blog. Had quite an interesting Saturdays for the mth of Aug.

15th Aug

I was one of the sword bearers for my BMT instructor. His wedding was held in Raffles Hotel. It was cool cos all his sword bearers were female! Was very honoured to be one of them. It has always been my dream to have a military wedding (The groom wearing the military uniform not me wearing it)

22 Aug

Attended my first Singles Event @ Wine Arcade. It was a wine appreciation talk. We had wine over the lunch provided. Initially I thought the participants will be from MOE but I was wrong. The participants were from all over, from both private and public sector. The ladies were seated at their table throughout the lunch but the guys were made to change table after every course served. It was an interesting experience. Got to know a couple of female non-uniform officers frm the Police Force as they were frm my table. FYI, I was volunteered by my boss to attend this event. As my colleague was the organizer for our side, I thought I shld give him some support.

What will be your first thought if somebody approach you and asked if you could help push her baby stroller for her and even offer money for your service?

My first reaction was "What???? Is she like for real?? Is this like some kind of joke or scam?". Despite all the doubts that I have, I lingered a while longer for her to elaborate more as she was a foreigner and I require a longer time to process what she's trying to say. So after listening to her, I agreed to help her.

Venue: At Peace Centre Time : Morning Destination: Jacob Ballas Centre @ Waterloo Street

She was asking around for someone to help her push her child in a stroller to the Jacob Ballas Centre at Waterloo. It takes only bout 10-15 min walk. Apparently, she has been asking around for almost half an hour before I agreed to help her. She's from Isreal and she's Jewish. According to her Saturday is where they go to church for prayer and they are not allowed to handle heavy things therefore she needs someone to push the stroller for her. I know nuts bout Jewish culture but she looked like she really needed help so I took her word for it.

She's a teacher and she teaches the Jewish community, her husband is here for work so her whole family is staying for 2 yrs. A pretty lady with a cute daughter and her friendly mother-in-law. Haha...learn something bout the Jewish culture. I shld go read up on it when I have the time.

I met Ms Phang @ the NATAS Travel Fair!! What a coincidence! When she approached me, I was thinking I'm not even inside yet and there are sales personnel outside already. Ms Phang, did you manage to sign up any packages?The most ironic thing was I was there for travel but ended up signing wedding package. It's probably the first time I spent so much in a day.

The day ended with MAYDAY concert. Totally high though it's not as electrifying as the year before last. Man...I got a surprise halfway through the concert. I was like jumping and singing along with the band when I turn and I saw my subordinate right next to me. Haha...I think he was damn shocked to see me. Haha..I was shocked and like awkward for a min but after that I continued being high...I wasn't at work so I can heck my image lar. We are @ a rock concert!

It's Sept already....when was the last time we met up for dinner? Was it the time at Vivo? We shall meet up and start planning for Xmas. We can help Ms Phang utilize her blog more often by asking her to volunteer her service again.. =)

My 2 days MC will end in a few minutes. I wonder if it's the season where everyone start to fall sick. Everyone please take care, esp Jac. You got MC till Fri!! Manz...it just sound serious but I hope it's not.

Seems like ages since we met. Think I told QL that I will organize a meeting after the KL trip but it's been a mth since then...Haiz...July/Aug is a busy period...Work never finish then still have to take MC...Tsk..it never rain but pours.

Well at least I get to look forward to my Taiwan trip in Nov (hope it will realize). Sorry Bren/YY, I don't think I can join you gals for the China trip in Dec.

3 more days....

Alright! 3 more days to KL!!!

Wow...I just realized the sheer size of the shopping mall. I bet we wouldn't have time to finish shopping in one day. My mind is filled with Auntie Anne's, Baskin Robbins...manz..i'm hungry just by thinking of it

It's already July...we should start planning for X'mas '09 soon...

This week will be the last 5 days of course then it'll be back to work again. Haha this explains why I have the time to blog on a weekday afternoon. I think the amount of work just keep piling up. Haven't check email for 2 days already...and I think it's most probably full now.

Yes! 18 more days to the KL trip! Haha...Brenda I think you need to fill me in on the details...I don't even know how many ppl are gg...lol...well this shows that I put total trust in Bren n YY ;)

It's tough being nice and it's difficult being nasty too....
Put others before self...sometimes it rqds more effort put in.
Put self before others...sometimes it makes u feel like a bastard.

I think sometimes it's gd to juz spew a string of vulgarities and let it go.
REALLY....when the other party is not on the same frequency it's just very hard to communicate the point across.

PATIENCE....when you start to feel the heat and experience the reality of life, you'll realize this virtue is a tad hard to upkeep.
