June is coming!

Time really flies. Now it's already end of May and very soon we will be half way through 2008. 2 public holidays in May have passed, next PH will be National Day, but that falls on a Saturday, so it doesn't make much difference. Following that will be October 1st, Hari Raya Puasa. WAH!!! That's like 4 odd months down the road!!!! T_T

Well well, although there's no PH to look forward to in the upcoming months, there's definitely something worth feeling excited about.

Keep a lookout @ Yebber. There will be some very special things to look out for. Hee hee... Remember to check it out regularly in June.

Surprise SURprise SURPRISE!!

Start of Shopping Spree!

Yeah! To mark the start of the shopping season (although I tend to shop all year round. GALS mah! Haha...), I took a break from my usual afternoon gym workout & head down to Expo for a shopping spree. Well, actually I'm usually more of a target shopping person, meaning that I have in mind what I wanna buy, head down to the place, get what I wanted & leave. This time round, it started off with the same concept in mind. I wanted to get an eyecream & decided to check out what the sales have to offer. But guess what? In the end I bagged home about $200 worth of "goodies". Muaahhaha....

Expo was so packed with people today. HUMAN JAM! Cos there were so many sales going on. Adidas, women's apparels sales, food fair, Popular sales & Robinsons sales. Not forgetting that there's also a church service there. Despite the crazy human jam and being all by myself, I was still very excited, trying to squeeze into the halls where the sales were. Started off with the Adidas sales. Still gotta queue up to gain entry into the hall. Before that we even have to deposit our bags but everything was carrid out in a very organised manner. Before you can swarm to check out the bargains, one will be given a very big plastic bag (which looks like a garbage bag) so that you can put whatever you want into the bag then make payment at the cashier. Managed to find 3 tops, out of which 2 were for myself. Hee hee... Good bargain!!!

Having warmed up at the Adidas sales, my next & final stop was Robinsons sales. That's where I intended to get my eye cream. But in the end I bought myself $100++ of things. Wahaha.... Luckily I need to rush to airport, if not I think I'll be more that $200 cheaper. Wahaha....But then, really had a great sense of achievement!!

So happy now!!

That's how women are. :)

Department Teambuilding

Finally it's over! Phew!!!

I've been tasked to be the organiser for today's teambuilding at Sentosa, mainly just gotta work on the activities for the day and BBQ. But that's already a little stressful. I was so afraid that things will go wrong, weather might be bad, etc. Yes yes, I've been praying extremely hard for good weather as most of the activities planned were outdoor. If it really pours, I've only got a big packet of balloons to fall back on. Erhh...well, low budget. So the only alternative Just game which I can think was to blow balloons since there's plentiful in my lab. Wahahaha....

I guess the funniest part was that I actually had a bad dream last nite. Dreamt that the BBQ had not even started at 7pm when I've promised everyone that our teambuilding should end before 7pm. Just remembered that we kept changing BBQ pit in the dream for some reason lah. Luckily it was just a dream. STRESSED manz!

I thought that it would be a much easier task to bring a group of adults out on an "excursion" compared to bringing kids. But I was wrong. The adults were just as hard to manage. One ran off to buy a cup of coffee before we board the Sentosa Express and in the end was denied entry onto the tram (no food & drinks allowed!). So the whole group of us gotta wait for him to finish his drink. Then another two ran out of the train a stop before we reached our station. When it came to games, some simply could not understand basic instructions and rules of the games. In the end, I screamed and shouted until I almost lose my voice.

Luckily te BBQ was more orderly and it finished off at about 6pm. Haha... So my bad dream did not come true! Other then a passing shower when we just arrived at the chalet, the weather was fantastic. Bright & sunny!! And I got tanner again. Haha...

Yeah! On the overall, it was an enjoyable & successful teambuilding. Ended the evening with a beer & chit-chat session with some colls.

Look forward to the next one (paintball I guess) to be organised by my boss. Hee hee....
