Makan Challenge???

Today, I had a more than usual Saturday. I have to wake up early in the morning just like my usual work days. Ermm... no worries, not heading for work. I've agreed to join my dear friend in youth activity called "Makan Challenge". YOUTH??? U must be wondering how come I'm still considered as a youth...Haha... Hey, youth = 25 years old & below... So I'm safely under this category... Hehe... on the upper end of the age range though...
The weather did not turned out as expected, it rained before the challenge began. But it's in fact a good sign that it's starting to rain again!! The weather is getting back to normal I hope. Well, the heat these days is killing me... Thank god, we were lucky enough that the rain stopped just before the programme commenced, though still drizzling... But it was good enough to start...
We had a "good" time running from Youth park to Dobby Ghaut, then to Orchard & back to Dobby Ghaut... Well, it didn't just ended there... We had these sort of crazy runs for a couple of times & it's driving my legs mad... PLUS, I was soaked with a mixture of rain water & sweat... YUCKS... Seriously, I stinked & it's really disgusting!!! But what a great workout I had on a Saturday morning!!
What's more disgusting is that you know what sort of great delicacies we had for the so-called Makan Challenge? Yeah, it's really "delicacies"....things like chilli, bittergourd, lime, apple, sour plum, tomato, and worst of all, raw beansprout!!! Now wonder my friend's bf got diarrhoea...Haha...
Well, our team didn't do too badly, at least we came in sixth among the 20 teams...though we've missed the first 4 prizes (1st prize was a bluetooth MP3, not ipod, as previously claimed by my dear friend...) we managed to get a consolation prize!!! Ermm...well, it's a pathetic pilot pen & pencil set...(pretty sad case)...
Had a gd time with another dear at Essential Brew restaurant in the evening... A pretty nice place to sit & laze around on weekends... Highly recommended!!!

Happy CNY, folks!! Ermm.. Sorry, my greetings seem to come pretty late, today is already the third day of Chinese New Year. Well well, it's better to be late than never, isn't it? Haha...
Well, had a good CNY this year, lotz of visitings from my relatives, ermm...that means I've rotted at home for the last 2 days!!! Sigh... Made my body ached, but recovered after a morning swim today...Hehe~~ So fulfilling... Well, have not been into the pool for almost 2 weeks, ever since i fell sick... Now i'm almost back to normal again... ;-)
Last 2 days, we had visits from my aunts & cousins... Really nice to see my dearest cousins yesterday. Well, we have not been doing such visits for a couple of years, so happy to have them over at my place yesterday... Hehe...
Well, still having a bit of cough...so gotta keep away from the CNY goodies... Haiz... (Though I did eat a bit....Hahah.... SHHHhh...)
Yeah, a good CNY break, but gonna be back at work on Monday... V'dae somemore....Sigh....

CNY Steamboat Dinner - Round 1

Today I have attended a whole day analytical training... So tiring... Think my medicine made me drowsy, though I have gave the cough mixture a skip today... Think yesterday's dose was still taking effect...For so long? I wonder too...
This morning felt pretty drowsy on the train, wanted to sleep, but saw a pregnant woman who had no place to sit.. I felt bad not to give up my seat to her... Think that she needed the seat more than I did... So I tried to sleep while standing...but of course that's not possible...though I dozed off quite a couple times while standing...haha...
The analytical training was a good one i think, but I really felt too sleepy to concentrate...dozed off at times again... ;
After a day of training, I saw a stack of papers on my workbench..Good guess! It's my boss who left me the stuff... Work!! He threw me 2 reactions for tomorrow... ;-( It's Friday tomorrow...but he wants me to clear as many reactions as possible before I go on my leave next week...So sad...Can't he see that I'm sick? Not even a word of concern from him.... He said that he hoped the reactions work tomorrow so that he'll have a good weekend... So do I... I want a good Friday & weekend too.... ;-(
Never mind about that, I'll be on leave soon...hehe~~ After work, we went Coca restaurant for steamboat! It was fun!! I admit that I was lousy...ate so little, no appetite mah...still feeling sick.... sigh... But it's really an enjoyable dinner.... ;p
There's going to be another round of steamboat tomorrow... ;-)

So Malu!!!

Yesterday something terrible happened. Made me really malu... But I don't wish to go into the details of that incident. Think my sis is right, I still don't know how to take care of myself... :-( Now I'm losing my voice...Haha...sexy voice now... ;p


Anyway, these week should be pretty relaxed at work. I attended a pharmaceutical seminar these 2 days. Well, some parts were pretty interesting but I just can't stand sitting from 9am -5.30pm! Think that's making me sick...


Well, hopefully tomorrow we'll be able to go on a tour to Jurong Island... Hope that the MPs coming to visit us in the afternoon instead.. Well, I have yet been to JI, so this is a good chance to go...


Another full day training on Thursday, which means that for this week, I just have to work on Friday, then next week I'll be on leave!! Hooray!!!
