Yesterday had an impromptu movie night. We watched final destination. How bleak is that? Morbid and depressing.
It's bad enough that people have to die... but those in the movie... sigh. Decapitated, maimed, burnt.. all possible horrible ways to die. What a movie.
Had an unpleasant day yesterday. Been having this naggy feeling due to some not so good turn of events recently. I've come to realise that I place quite high importance on how people think of me. Heh, signs of insecurities I suppose...
Well, hopefully today will be a better day.
Heading off to work in an hour time. Tons and tons of things to do.... 2 deadlines .. both on 1st March, so must finish by 28 Feb. Computing line is no fun I tell you...

guess i'll have to work on monday...
Well, day-dream is over and now back to reality. I aint no millionaire, haha! Only managed 2 numbers.. so no prize there. Anyway.. it was worth the try.
Yesterday, was company's dinner event (finally!) at No Signboard, the Stadium branch. I only ate at the Geylang branch before and the food was not bad but quite expensive (well, what do you expect? It's seafood after all!). So at around 5.45pm, we trudged out of office and hopped into Chet's car towards foood... yum yum...
Actually, based on past experience, we dared not expect too much. Previous dinners were held at Marina South and coffeeshop in Commenwealth (to eat fish head noodle)... so.. just no expectation at all. At around 6.30pm, after Boss gave his speech.. I felt giddy. Heh.. prob not from the speech but from staring too long at the moving waters that surrounds the restaurant. Does this mean that I'll likely to get seasick if I take a boat ride? Hmmm...
So the food came and of course, we had 'yee sang' as starters. Next came the appetisers that consist of 4-5 items. Next we had lobster salad, followed by sharkfin soup, oat prawns, steamed fish (small one), chicken dish (very small one), fried squid(?!! not auspicious to serve fried squid during company dinner bah,right?! ), fried kangkong and lastly fried rice. Then lastly, we had almond longan as desserts. So this is likely to be the most expensive and grand company dinner that we ever had in our 5 years in the company.
The food there is not bad but I felt not up to No Signboard Geylang's standard. I think Geylang is the original outlet. Anyhow, there were a lot of customers! ALOT! Because after our dinner, I can still see the long queue outside as the entire restaurant was fully packed! Hmm.. very likely their business will continue to be brisk as these are the last few days of CNY celebrations.. so people are actually having 'yee sang' fervently? Hehe, maybe.
Oooh.. after that when we were queueing for cab at City Hall... we managed to catch the fireworks! Wahh... nice! But the queue for cab there is horrible as we waited for like half hour before getting one.
Anyhow, as weekend is here, I'd like to wish you a good rest and a nice weekend!

rainbow
It was just beginning to drizzle slightly, and when I looked up the sky... there it was ... a rainbow. I totally love rainbows! Yeah, do you?
It's just a wonderful feeling being able to see one.

TOTO, anyone?
Queues are forming all over Singapore as I type... the atmosphere is tensed but cheery kinda way. Why? 'Coz every CNY, there'll be the special ang bao draw for TOTO. It'll be dream come true if you ever get the first prize.. 10 million bucks.. imagine what you can do with it (daydreaming now...)
If ever win 10 million, here's what I'll do:
1. Keep 5 million inside bank (heheh, prob can keep in that Swiss bank.. so no one will know abt it...)
2. Buy a property for 0.5 million (that's how much it'll cost in S'pore for a 4 bedroom place..)
3. Give parents 150K each. Siblings 100K each.
4. Invest 2 million.
5. Donate 500K to charities.
6. Get a postgrad degree, that'll cost 50K.
7. Go for a holiday all over the world with a bunch of friends and their expenses all paid, and this will cost about 100K (prob just 2-3 places, and just 5-6 friends)
8. Open an eatery in Malaysia, so my sis can be the chef, and my mom the cashier. That'll need prob 500K.
The remaining ones will be kept for emergency use... Oops! How can I forget? Have to pay taxes, bah? So, it'll be used to pay IRS...
Muahahaaa.. still dreaming.... and yeah, good luck to you too. May we strike TOTO this year!

恭喜发财
Lunar New Year celebrations is almost 七七八八。。。fast, right? Now that it's February already, there'll be no more public hols for now... sianz ah!
How's the ang bao collection this year? Keke, paiseh to say, I'm still getting them too! Although most of it passed back to my mom liao. Of course on top of that, I gave them an ang bao each too, now that I'm already working.
Alot of my friends are either momma's or expecting their firstborn. I enjoy being wif kids... only if they dun poop so much. Played with Oreo last Sunday at SL's house. He's eight months old and quite hyper! Not afraid of the dog too. In fact, he cackles when he sees one! Waiting for LF's addition this March and CY's this June. It's raining babies!
