Just finished night shift. Very siong ahhh! But because I didn't have much rest the night before also didn't have time for lunch. Only left office at 8.30pm to take cab home. Thanks joa for helping to book.
Took a very short rest, almost overslept when I was supposed to appear at site at 11.30 pm but I only got there at 12.10 am. Aigoo, but luckily nothing much happened lo.
Left the place at 4.10 am, happened to see boss booking in while I was leaving at the gate. Came back at 4.45 am, took a shower, had some bread (coz hungry liao, aigoo!) before I went to sleep.
Woke up at 11.30 am just now, feeling more refreshed. But I'm still a bit fatigue ds. Aigoo, still need to work in afternoon, wonder what time can I go home today.
Goodness, yesterday afternoon was rushing here and there just to get things done, I just don't
really like it. Ssf I just wanted to get signature but you took me to
游车河. More sag is I need time to do my work in the office one leh.
Still give myself another about 1.5 years to see how things go by lo.

Cafe hop on Hari Raya
Morning was working by sending emails, actually quite sian - I myself try not to work during weekend because it has been real exhausting for me from work le. I don't understand why until now still there are so many problems, all these problems I have to clean up the shit... Having Tuesday blues now.
Attendees:
1. Me
2. PG
3. Nicholas
4. JX (left early)
Supposed to meet at 12.30 pm at Kovan. But I was still working on sending emails out before I call it a day. Only left house at 12.05 pm. By the time I reached Kovan it was 1.15 pm liao. Didn't see they all at Ice Edge cafe, only realised that they went to Hatter Street for waffles chillout! Zsd baituo! The weather was hot and humid and I was sweating away already.
JX made reservation at 12.50 pm. But when they returned from Hatter Street at 1 plus, the staff told JX that the estimated waiting time was about 45 minutes. Omo, instead we waited for Ice Edge, hoping that Lola could open seats for us once we finish the food at Ice Edge to save time.
Ordered waffle with a single Mao Shan Wang scoop ($10). The waffle was ok to me but they commented the waffle wasn't a match to Hatter Street de. Somemore it's cheaper over at Hatter Street ds and JX treated PG and Nicholas. Sag for me!
貓山王雪糕+鬆餅
Damage: $2.50 (total: $10.70)
After that the automated call really came as we were finishing the desserts. Went over and were saggy to find that the seats we got were outdoors! But we saw that the diners at indoor window seats were finishing their food soon so we didn't mind to wait a bit longer to get the air-con seats. Yang! It's a bit weird when I discovered they have two different WiFi network, one is the main one and another is the external one. I guess the external one should be for patrons' use. But after enquiring the waiter there, he claimed that the WiFi networks are for internal use. Baituo... =.=
Ordered:
熱摩卡($5.50)
Lola's Full Monty Breakfast ($15)
Mushroom Melt ($10)
那盤炸雞($10) 還有未曾出現在照片裡的truffle fries ($12)
果然很豐盛的說！
Damage: $21 (total $83)
*Omo, saw this Burmese guy whom I always see him around in NTU at the cafe ds*
JX left around 3.15 pm because he had night shift today. Also sag for him. Then left three of us continued to sit at the cafe even after the bill was settled because we don't know what the next destination to go. PG suggested to call The Coffee Daily but nobody picked up as I made several attempts. Sag.
Next I called Artistry. Someone picked up and said the cafe is closed today and asked us to come tomorrow. Weird when you said cafe closed but you were at cafe picking up calls?!
Without more choices, we decided to head town to explore. Took bus 107M and the journey was quite fast surprisingly. Nicholas fell asleep and I secretly took photo of him sleeping on bus. That's what I have been doing lately on my commute to work ds, I'm too tired liao.
At Millenia Walk, Nicholas called HH and he revealed to HH that I was with Nicholas. Bet HH was jelly ds. But anyway he didn't come out because it was a bit last minute and his mum cooked dinner le. And also he xyy on Diablo 3, that's why LG on coming out ba lol. PG so quiet there jin du!!! But we didn't do anything there, then decided to go Lady M @ Marina Square. But before that, we went to take photo at Morgan Fields just outside Promenade station. A lot of people there and we were embarrassed to take funny poses with the big food picture on the poster. Then we continued our way to Marina Square. There was this Alive Museum which looks almost like trick-eye museum in RWS or in Korea. But jinja so ex @ $25 for adult when I just need to spend $10 in Seoul to enter the museum and a lot of people were queuing to buy the tickets to enter.
Saw Teo Heng at Suntec! New outlet, but also not cheap leh. $16/hour ds. 3 hours = $48 liao. Gong cha is just beside it.
Luckily it wasn't a long wait at Lady M. Seemed to find the malls were not so crowded as during Saturday. Everybody is having blues ba, including me ds. Usually Sunday night and whole of Monday were totally blue for me, very depressed. Ordered:
Green Tea Mille Crepe ($8.50++)
Tarte a la Mange ($7.50++)
Damage: $6.25 (total $18.85)
Didn't know that J.Co at Bugis Junction has been replaced by Paris Baguette. Think the donut trend is kinda hard to sustain lo. But I see Paris Baguette, despite the super pricey items, the business is very good wor. Always see queues in the Jem and Wisma branches de. But in Korea, there isn't any queue at all. Lol... Funny sight.
Next I suggested the next destination to go as it was a little bit early - still not 7 pm yet. Actually if they have nothing more to do, I'm ok to go home too as I already have blues feelings liao. At first we were discussing having dinner at Far East Plaza, those tze char stall on level 5, but it was so far away, a bit out of way le. Nichoals said he's not eating because he was so full from the late lunch. Then PG suggested food court, so we moved off from Lady M to the food court. Saw the stall selling the famous Japanese teppanyaki fish fillet set @ $6 (bet most likely the fish fillet has shrunken in size) at down in front of the Korean stall. I said that I don't mind trying out the kimchi fried rice @ $6. Then Nicholas said it wasn't nice as he came here before with JX. Aigoo... Then after that he said he got craving for fries at Carls Jr. Aigoo! He taking us for hor-lan?!
Sis and cousin not joining us because cousin wanted to go home early. This spurred me even more to try not to stay out too late.
Then we went down the escalator just outside Lady M, again it was hor-lan because Carls Jr isn't located there. Omo, why keep hor-lan de?
At Carls Jr, Nicholas said he's not having burger, so I said both me and PG could share the burger and he could have the fries himself instead. Drinks can be shared by all of us. So in the end Nicholas bought the BBQ chicken burger set @ $12.90. But because Nicholas got SAFRA card, got discount $2 off jek. Yang!
Then while eating the halved burger, the gravy somehow got leaked out of the paper wrap and dripped onto my bag and shorts! Aigoo, more work for me to do to clean up the mess. Sian...
Damage: $3.50 (total $10.90)
Nicholas called HH again and requested him to call back using home phone. But HH was still xyying over Diablo 3, so he didn't want to call. Nicholas seemed disappointed lol. After some chats over there, we called it a day early as I wanted to go home early. Reached home at 9.55 pm. Got durian to eat before I sleep jek, yang again!

K9 catch up: la kopi
Had la kopi just now with Bay and YZ.
Over at Casuarina Curry...
Talked about the K9 days. Bay mentioned that he tried to do away with EMR duties while I don't have many EMR duties in first place. He said that it doesn't make much sense to put 2 men there for 15-hour duties. There was once when Bay was taking Bart to stand in the morning, then Bart lao sai. In the end, Bay got to bring jerry can to pour the shit away. Haha! I got similar incident with Argo or Charlie too, can't remember which dog le. YZ said that there was one time when quite a number of people were down, in the end we no need to do the kennel master duties. Actually doing ops isn't a bad thing afterall, get to dismount the next day quite nice.
Bay said that kennel master and guard duties are quite bo hua because cannot dismount after duties. I agree with him, dismount is like a free off given and one could do whatever he likes lo. Staying in camp has restrictions to adhere.
Then over CNY duties, YZ said he was the one to have mount dismount mount dismount consecutively throughout the CNY period. I said that everyday need 10 people on duty and unit had only 2 Indians around, of course Chinese got to fill up the vacancies la. As far as I can, due to my situation, I try to put myself in these dates lo. But people like Mao Gui were really a little bit selfish leh. Sad...
YZ said that all the saikang we name it he got tio before: most, if not all, the Welcome Guard he tio. LOL~ For me, at the most is tio reserve for Welcome Guard after dismount, i.e. cannot leave camp straight away after finished everything. I only can went home after around 3 pm. The most the most bizarre one was when he, together with Charleston and Edwin tio called to go Guards there to do painting works. Even I myself also find it ridiculous, the camp IIRC, is located at the other end of SG, cannot call for support nearby meh?
We all agree that Jackie has got to be the best dog for deterrence purpose. Personal experience tells me that I got the secure feeling when I'm with him. To the outsider, they may think he quite siao.
I asked if they got mount mount 2 days consecutively before a dismount before, it seemed all of us got this kind of combination before. For me is because I got to fulfill punishment (I think it's because of punishment la). Talking about punishment, I mentioned to them that I still remember ZY tio dog bite by Jackie. But I wasn't the culprit, I merely told him to put Jackie back. I was doing something else, think was helping the other section to wash kennels, can't remember exactly what I did liao. Both Bay and YZ think it's right that ZY tio dog bite. Baituo... Whatever it was, the next day MSG Tang knew about this incident and asked me what happened. I was quite surprised then, but I still told him what happened. This was quite strange, because I told him to stay as per normal and the dog bite wasn't serious at all. Give it a few days and the wound should have recovered. At that point of time, I suspected it's Ang YL who told MSG Tang, but then if he told Tang, then ZY must have tell him liao, coz I remembered after the incident, I asked Bay if he know about this incident, then keep mum about it. Tang gave me three extra kennel master duties, but I only fulfilled one and the one got converted to SW by Chionh last minute because he needed the early dismount on Saturday. In the end, I got to earn extra half day off lol. 算是因禍得福吧？
As usual, it's always quite nice to bring such topics up to chat after ORD. The point is that don't think those bad memories as literally BAD. But come to think of it years later, it may not seem to be a bad thing. For example now if I compare myself to those in same reservist unit as me, I can say that I had the privilege to be part of the K9 team, which is quite unique on its own le.
Bay mentioned the sad case about Ranger. 現在想起來還是有一點惋惜，牠們怎麼說都是為了SAF終生效命，可是遺體卻遭丟進垃圾桶。話說那天Ranger去世後，Bay帶牠的遺體去給獸醫驗死因，結果斷定為自然死亡後，遺體遭丟進附近的垃圾桶。難道他們沒有一個程序來處理動物的遺體嗎？難道牠們就不是生命嗎？難道這是牠們應得嗎？難道牠們就只值這樣的待遇嗎？到現在想起來還是愛莫能助，我當然不希望個個去世後都有這樣的下場，Bay還說Ranger投胎轉世後不要回來當兵犬。*我都要點頭贊成的說*
This is the only thing that left some sort of scars on K9 experience.
For reservist, I thought Bay is from Sembawang Camp one, until he just now clarified that he's in Kranji Camp now. For YZ, I can't believe that his ICT is so slack! Then Edwin was playing Nintendo DS all day long. Somemore there is Saravanan! Omo, Saravanan is a name which I very seldom come across now le. Anyway, YZ said he has 3 children now (wow!), and he always get best soldier award after YZ and Edwin keep voting for him. LOL~
Moving on to IPPT. Again, I stressed that with some more training, getting silver for my IPPT isn't impossible anymore. For now, pass with incentive shouldn't be a problem, so I can wait to get $200 le! YZ said that if only they retain the static stations and remove the 2.4 km run, because he can pass all the static stations and the run takes up most of the time in IPPT. But he also noted that he always pass with borderline results, meaning there is high probability that he could not clear in one attempt, need to come back another time to clear all. But with this new IPPT, I think he could pass it without thinking too much. RT is taking up too much of our time le. IMO, even people like Shi Hao or SK can pass without much difficulty now le.
On way back, YZ mentioned a lot of relationship stuff he both previously and currently going through. This is quite rare because he isn't quite the person who like to share a lot of personal stuff with friends around him. Afterall, I also doesn't contact him often. Anyway, I have no dating experience so I cannot comment much. But certain actions are quite obvious in the meaning and YZ took the replies from the girls as surface meaning. If the girl ask him to wait for her, how long should the guy wait? Should the guy even wait? This reply is possible because perhaps the girl doesn't want to reject the guy directly, so by giving such replies, she hopes the guy get the meaning. 但是呢，來到感情這回事，我覺得YZ會蠻癡情，而且還會被愛情蒙住了自己的視線，導致自己看不清楚去路，很容易走錯路。Seeing how he can wait 1 year for the girl but the girl also didn't do anything for him, I already know liao. 1 year leh, for me I think at most 3-6 months if no further action, I move on liao lo. 若真的喜歡對方的話，何不嘗給自己彼此機會試試看。還在長相廝守的話，就可能有問題了。
Wish the best for him lo.

Korean dinner with the 38 clique
Left office at 6 pm and took train to Bugis from Potong Pasir. Sag when I couldn't board the train on EW line. Got to wait for the next one. So damn crowded lor. Reached Choo Choo around 6.30 pm. HL, Sebastian, Nicholas and PG already there liao.
HL preferred the sweet 'n' spicy than the pure spicy one. But even though I think the spicy is REALLY a bit spicy, but it's shiok leh! Anyway it's the first time jiak sweet flavour, it's nice but not as nice as the spicy lo.
Then saw Sia, Sia was very happy to see me jek. Coz she only saw PG and Nicholas and asked where I am. LOL~ Was a bit late to leave from office mah~~
The business was so good that they got to relocate some customers to free up more seats for 7 of us, then we also relocate to make way for someone's reservation at 7 pm. HH and ZX came down from Simei. Weird that ZX didn't come down to Bedok to fetch HH to town but instead HH went up to Simei then down to town. Had the garlic flavoured fried chicken - new item on menu. Not bad actually, but I think soy one is better ds.
XYY when Sia gave us two cham chi burger as free! I was so excited that I forgot to take note what exactly did we order. Haha~
Damage: $15.10
ZX was so bad towards JX. Well, I can't help much given the impression I have on JX. He's forever blur and not in the situation. Also he doesn't look at his phone de, people are looking for him and chatting away over IM apps leh. Then buy such good phone for what?!
Even ZX's manager is also aiming at JX. ZX suggests that JX should look for another job and leave the company. I kinda support ZX la, I guess JX also know that his current job doesn't suit him very well.
Went nearby to find a place to chill. Chanced upon Rich & Good Cake Shop which HL exclaimed why the shop was still open at 8 plus when she thought it should close at 5 pm. Anyway this cake shop is famous for swiss roll de. It could be really rich & good (coz of the nice and delicious cakes they sell), but scored rather poorly on service. HL asked the aunty how long the swiss roll would probably last, the aunty so yaya say she cannot guarantee bla bla bla. Ya, as if we also know we cannot guarantee, but providing a number/rough gauge doesn't make you a criminal what. Somemore you sell the cakes everyday, you ARE THE EXPERT leh. SSF, even if I'm not the expert, say 2-3 hours would be fine lo. It's subject to a lot of environmental factors what.
Tiagong the kaya swiss roll is the best seller and they had only one left at that point of time. So without any hestitaion, HL took it along with the durian flavoured one. $8 each.
Damage: $2.70 (total $16)
With the cakes, we brought it over to 坡東茶室, a cafe with a pretty nice 50's decor and selling old-school style pastries. Didn't buy any food from there, but gotten myself a cup of kopi peng ($1.90). The kopi was quite thick ds. PG also got the same drink. Nicholas and HH had teh. ZX had 鴛鴦. HL bought Chinese tea instead. Anyway, we ate the swiss rolls up at the cafe lol. The staffs were kind enough to lend us 2 knives to cut up the swiss roll.
ZX jinja dislike kaya despite we tried to convince him that the kaya swiss roll was really good. Then HH didn't 賞臉 by eating up a normal-portion sized swiss roll. Aigoo...
Durian was nice, but I think the taste could be a bit stronger so that it's nicer! Then HL recalled that during the durian feast with her friends, they bought more than 30 kg of durians! Free delivery from JB ds! Cost them around RM 360. 果然會享受的說～
Chatting over holidays and upcoming gatherings on 1, 10 and 11 Aug. On 1 Aug, HL is organising a homely gathering at her house, inviting some friends over for a simple dinner. :) I'm free on 1 and 10, but unsure on 11. Am I entitled to off-in-lieu due to National Day falls on Saturday?
HL wanted to go HK in Dec. Actually I also xyy, but a lot of contradictions going through me right now. One hand wanted to pay off debt asap, on another I hope to get some rest in the midst of hectic workload.
Damage: $1.90
The cafe closes at 9.30 pm, so we got to leave the place. Whilst deciding the next place to go, we stood in the middle of walkway and started chatting. In any case, it doesn't make sense for me to tag along them for part 2 because only ZX got car and he stays in the east. So me, PG and Nicholas chose to go home after that. I suggested that they can go to Starbucks for 2nd round of chillax lor. Just before 3 of us left the scene, ZX was slapping and tapping HH's breasts in the public place! Is this breast massage?! Eeeekk! *shrieking out loud* Omo, this was spotted by PG and HL and they were shrieking out ds. I didn't see it so I had no comment. SSF, who so free keep beo-ing HH every now and then? MCS~
HL preferred the sweet 'n' spicy than the pure spicy one. But even though I think the spicy is REALLY a bit spicy, but it's shiok leh! Anyway it's the first time jiak sweet flavour, it's nice but not as nice as the spicy lo.
Then saw Sia, Sia was very happy to see me jek. Coz she only saw PG and Nicholas and asked where I am. LOL~ Was a bit late to leave from office mah~~
The business was so good that they got to relocate some customers to free up more seats for 7 of us, then we also relocate to make way for someone's reservation at 7 pm. HH and ZX came down from Simei. Weird that ZX didn't come down to Bedok to fetch HH to town but instead HH went up to Simei then down to town. Had the garlic flavoured fried chicken - new item on menu. Not bad actually, but I think soy one is better ds.
XYY when Sia gave us two cham chi burger as free! I was so excited that I forgot to take note what exactly did we order. Haha~
吐拿魚飯粒漢堡
配上一點泡菜
真的很韓呢！
蒜頭味炸雞！
醬油味炸雞！
甜與辣炸雞！
以上的炸雞都讓人愛不釋口
Damage: $15.10
ZX was so bad towards JX. Well, I can't help much given the impression I have on JX. He's forever blur and not in the situation. Also he doesn't look at his phone de, people are looking for him and chatting away over IM apps leh. Then buy such good phone for what?!
Even ZX's manager is also aiming at JX. ZX suggests that JX should look for another job and leave the company. I kinda support ZX la, I guess JX also know that his current job doesn't suit him very well.
Went nearby to find a place to chill. Chanced upon Rich & Good Cake Shop which HL exclaimed why the shop was still open at 8 plus when she thought it should close at 5 pm. Anyway this cake shop is famous for swiss roll de. It could be really rich & good (coz of the nice and delicious cakes they sell), but scored rather poorly on service. HL asked the aunty how long the swiss roll would probably last, the aunty so yaya say she cannot guarantee bla bla bla. Ya, as if we also know we cannot guarantee, but providing a number/rough gauge doesn't make you a criminal what. Somemore you sell the cakes everyday, you ARE THE EXPERT leh. SSF, even if I'm not the expert, say 2-3 hours would be fine lo. It's subject to a lot of environmental factors what.
Tiagong the kaya swiss roll is the best seller and they had only one left at that point of time. So without any hestitaion, HL took it along with the durian flavoured one. $8 each.
Damage: $2.70 (total $16)
With the cakes, we brought it over to 坡東茶室, a cafe with a pretty nice 50's decor and selling old-school style pastries. Didn't buy any food from there, but gotten myself a cup of kopi peng ($1.90). The kopi was quite thick ds. PG also got the same drink. Nicholas and HH had teh. ZX had 鴛鴦. HL bought Chinese tea instead. Anyway, we ate the swiss rolls up at the cafe lol. The staffs were kind enough to lend us 2 knives to cut up the swiss roll.
說實在的
我不知道原來它那麼出名
賣相還不錯
真想吃
咬下去後
那餡料真的沒得頂啊！
好濃的咖啡啊($1.90)
ZX jinja dislike kaya despite we tried to convince him that the kaya swiss roll was really good. Then HH didn't 賞臉 by eating up a normal-portion sized swiss roll. Aigoo...
Durian was nice, but I think the taste could be a bit stronger so that it's nicer! Then HL recalled that during the durian feast with her friends, they bought more than 30 kg of durians! Free delivery from JB ds! Cost them around RM 360. 果然會享受的說～
Chatting over holidays and upcoming gatherings on 1, 10 and 11 Aug. On 1 Aug, HL is organising a homely gathering at her house, inviting some friends over for a simple dinner. :) I'm free on 1 and 10, but unsure on 11. Am I entitled to off-in-lieu due to National Day falls on Saturday?
HL wanted to go HK in Dec. Actually I also xyy, but a lot of contradictions going through me right now. One hand wanted to pay off debt asap, on another I hope to get some rest in the midst of hectic workload.
Damage: $1.90
The cafe closes at 9.30 pm, so we got to leave the place. Whilst deciding the next place to go, we stood in the middle of walkway and started chatting. In any case, it doesn't make sense for me to tag along them for part 2 because only ZX got car and he stays in the east. So me, PG and Nicholas chose to go home after that. I suggested that they can go to Starbucks for 2nd round of chillax lor. Just before 3 of us left the scene, ZX was slapping and tapping HH's breasts in the public place! Is this breast massage?! Eeeekk! *shrieking out loud* Omo, this was spotted by PG and HL and they were shrieking out ds. I didn't see it so I had no comment. SSF, who so free keep beo-ing HH every now and then? MCS~

Why you don't want to talk to my PC?!
Another short update here. New IPPT system going to be implemented next year April. There's hope to me passing the IPPT liao! But wonder if I'm able to handle the push-up section well.
Lately have been vexed by this issue on the Redmi Note. Cannot connect to my desktop leh! The only choice is to
Saw SC from NTU last time at LTA office while I was going out of the compound and back to office.

Xiaomi Redmi Note!
It was already 9 pm when I reached home. Already knew the phone arrived around 1 pm. But what's surprising is that I didn't expect the status update to be from Changi Airport straight away to home.
But who cares right? As consumer we only want cheap, fast and item arrive intact.
Initial impression of the phone was very yang! Overall the phone doesn't feel like $199 one. More like $300+ to $400+ range or even more. I think the packaging plays a big part. It does give me this feeling when I unboxed the phone.
Screen is bright and quite nice. Pretty good for the price range. After applying the screen protector, began to explore the phone!
But why cannot detect the phone on computer?! Sag～
奇怪
手機到新加坡後
就沒有消息了
下一分鐘就到家了

Another staff last day
Didn't know today is one of the staff's last day in company. Quite shocking to a number of us, including me. If I didn't approach her for work stuff, I wouldn't have known ds.
But anyway, the farewell gift she got for us includes some French style biscuits, chocolates and Häagen-Dazs ice cream. Yay~ But when it is my turn to ORD?
Almost forgot that PG on off today, tomorrow he will go for his 4-day ICT ds. Aigoo...
Went NEX for lunch with JM, ET and GD. Curry chicken rice set ($5.50) was nice, but Lot 1 is nicer IMO. Somehow I felt a bit out of place ds, I'm the only one by myself while they three are considered as one team de.

Cafe hop @ Thomson
Left home at around 1.20 pm to take bus to somewhere so that I can go Thomson by bus 52. But sagged when I saw 185 ran off! Took me a while to get onto bus 99 instead. Should have taken MRT to Marymount.
Then on bus 52, I was so tired that I dozed off on the bus! Woke up and saw whatsapp messages and 5 missed calls from Nicholas. Aigoo...
Nicholas said that HH was nua-ing at home watching HK drama. The reason that he didn't reply in 毒舌婦 was that he's undecided to come out or not. In the end he didn't turn up lol.
Stop 1: November 8
Damage: $9.50 (total $16.50)
Stop 2: One Man Coffee cafe + Crust Bistro Bar
Sub-total $17
Stop 3: Brownice

Sub-total: $10
Damage: $9 (stops 2 + 3 = $27)
Asked WX where was he. Then he said they finished everything, Madame Patisserie to Tart Blanc then finally to Pepperoni Pizza and now going home. According to him, Jerome was sad and JW was about to cry - reason being I told them I at Suntec but I was actually at Thomson area, so they thought I was Suntec and about to give them a treat. MCS? They both earn more than me yet demand me treat them? QS SSF MCS~~~
Later 5.45 pm Nicholas left to attend night class. Nothing on for the day so we went home by bus 132-151 then 66. Sagged when 157 whizzed past in front of me just before crossing the road to take one of the few buses there to minimise waiting time.
Scared hungry later so had Korean spicy noodles as late dinner.

Dinner with YZ
The phone reached SG in the morning! But sagged when the courier company changed the date from 18 July to 24 July. Aigoo, meaning I can't play with the phone this weekend le. =\
Wanted to redeem free complimentary starbucks drinks today as today is the last day for redemption liao. But morning left house forgot to take Starbucks card! Only until I was walking through the HDB blocks then realised. In the end walked back to take the card then went to work again. Was late for the train, but timing could mean that PG could be on the train to work also. So I said to him that I was late for work only now on Lakeside platform.
Then while the train was between Chinese Garden and Jurong East, he replied that he just boarded the train! Aigoo, meaning we were on the same train ds! I looked over to the front, but couldn't spot him ds. As I was late for work, so I dropped off at Outram Park then ride on bus 147. Still got free ride ds~
Alighted at Boon Keng MRT to change bus 23. Was surprised to see boss on bus! Both of us were yawning away, work is jin tiring lo~ Found out that he lives rather near to workplace ds. Also saw Kuan Yeh boarding the bus.
Nothing much at work~ Lunch at Lavender. Fishball noodles ($3.30) was quite nice. Thanks Raymond for the carrot cake! :)
Left office at 6 pm to go Jurong East, going to be late for meetup with YZ. *Shriek! He said he coming from home! He no need to work today? Or work end early?!* Reached Jem at 7 pm. He said he was at level 4, so I went up to find him. Upon reaching level 4, he said he was at level 3 and asked me to go 新旺香港茶餐廳 to queue up.
Then he appeared in T-shirt, jeans pants and slippers! Aigoo... Then throughout the dinner we were talking about each other's work. His job might be quite paperwork intensive, but I think it could be interesting leh... At least no need to wear white helmet ba~ Most jelly when he said he still 'slacking' around when I am working almost cannot tahan liao. Baituo~
Ordered fish 'n' chips ($9.90) and iced 鴛鴦 ($1.90). The 鴛鴦 was on promotion, that's why so cheap.
*No photo to show.*
Then after dinner, I wanted to redeem the free drink from Starbucks. As I treated him for dinner, in return for the treat, he wanted to drive me home. But I said I wanted to go Starbucks, it's okay for him to leave first. But he insisted to send me home, ok so I said after I got the drink from Starbucks lor.
While I was about to enter Starbucks cafe at Jem, suddenly YZ pushed me away from Starbucks and asked me to walk away. He claimed that he saw a couple in the cafe whom he doesn't really like (or dislike), that's why he said move to next Starbucks. So in the end, we went Jurong Point instead.
Over there, he bought a pair of ties for work purpose. He explained that he only come out to shop only for stuff he really need to buy, so other times he stayed at home and become 宅男. LOL~ Oh ya, he bought iPad Mini le shuo. Really getting more and more tempted to upgrade my iPad le. Wonder what would the next iPad look and feel like.
We then moved to Starbucks, both of us were surprised that the area outside NTUC X’tra has been renovated to look like a typical street with neon lights in HK. They looked quite nice actually, next time can take photo and Instagram it lol. XYY, the person confirmed the information on the website is correct ds. Moved on to redeem the free 13th drink by ordering Dark Mocha Frappe without whipped cream. Now the next step is to redeem the cake.
As to why he quitted from the previous company, he said his job scope is something which is not really suitable for engineer. For e.g., certain tasks are too trivial and administrative and yet he needs to manage it. Adui, engineering job doesn't mean 100% technical. Administrative work plays a big part too. But then again, it's his choice to decide his career path lo.
He kept saying I'm too pessimistic about my job - coz I'm so tired after working. It's not I never try to be optimistic, but the amount of workload in first place makes it difficult to sustain it leh. Maybe for a while can la. Plus, it's not easy to solve an issue, so it is quite time consuming and can be quite sian when I can't find the cause or have any observation from the logs.
On our way back to the car, YZ stopped by to see some crystal ornaments. He mentioned that his brother is getting married and now he's thinking what to get as wedding gift. Ok, this is first time I learnt that his brother actually got gf ds. His brother was in overseas working after graduated in overseas too, so don't know how things work out. Talked about this actually linked me to both Edwin and Zhang Jie. I know both have gf and they are very stable already. It should not be surprising when both of them announced that they are getting married, but I'm still surprised. Haha, maybe marriage didn't really come across my mind ba.
Anyway, thanks YZ for the ride back home.
The news centred around MH17 incident. After MH370 went missing, this is another blow to Malaysian Airlines. For now, nobody knows the root cause. 想起來幾個月前才飛去西班牙，還是會有少許怕怕的。

WX Taiwan stuff
Left work at 6.20 pm. Since WX said want me to get from him those stuff he bought in Taiwan, I thought it would be better if I go directly after work lo.
But the plan got a twist somehow. Asked WX if bus 966 reach his house. He said no, then I asked if take 985, got any bus from Bukit Batok goes straight to his house as 985 takes a bit of detour at Bukit Batok. He also replied no.
Aigoo, then I thought why not use car after I got home and had dinner? 順便拉PG去拿貨！Jin yang!
Picked up PG after 9 pm and off we went to CCK to find WX. Then we went to McDonald's nearby for a short chill. Bought banana pie. Very tasty. PG redeem free coka-cola and bought banana pie too. WX went for vanilla ice-cream instead.
WX talked about his Taiwan trip. Ok, about his mum and his sis. His sister WQBX! Bought so much stuff in the end owe WX and mum $$$. And worse still, most of the stuff bought are not for her, but her friends. Aigoo, 食物跟鞋盒放在一起，太陽餅還要拆開盒子，散裝塞進行李！行徑很誇張一下！PG聽了都接受不到的說～
Anyway WX didn't buy a lot of stuff. He said go overseas should be relax and nua while he can, I agree with him half-heartedly - guess life is stressful in SG. Not only nua, but also make use of the chance to explore and experience the way of life overseas. But WTH, he's not working and xyy at home whole day lor!!! And his laptop... only on for 3 times since he bought in end Feb mcs?!
Then moving on to JW and Jerome. Both of them also very bx. They heard that WX went 九份, they also want to go there too. Then WX recommended both of them what stuff to buy back SG.
Saw the following about this year's World Cup quite funny:
醬都可以？也太巧了吧！

Night shift + '8 DAYS Eat' event
*Sigh, memory card failed... :( Have to get new one.*
Did night work at Tai Seng from Friday night to yesterday morning. Encountered some problems here and there when I was quite tired already, but luckily eveything got through. Left at 7 am after seeing everything is running fine, totally knocked out coz ignored the iPad alarm at 12 noon. Then heard ringtone from phone, but didn't got the chance to pick it up as I lagged in the movements lol.
Sia la! Already 1.15 pm liao! Still got lunch to eat and then dress up... Going to be late for the 8 DAYS Eat later!
Reached City Hall at 2.35 pm slightly after PG (he was one train ahead of me). Went to register ourselves early - actually we were one of the first few to arrive lol. The event started off with the host Yasminne (DJ of Class 95 FM) introducing Leslie Tay (ieatishootipost) and Brad Lau (ladyironchef). Leslie Tay gave some pretty good tips on how to shoot very nice food photos. Bokeh (or depth-of-field), rule of one-third lines and of course lighting are some essentials for achieving that. Most of them I already know so I'm taking some decent photos now le. Haha... Of course with phone camera, I guess I need a phone with good camera performance after all. Note 3 a bit disappointing leh... Now I'm leaning towards iPhone camera. :)
After Brad's short introductory speech, off we went to take photos and savour the food!
Stop 1: Su Food
Vegetarian. We chose corner seats of the 6-seater table. Then came two girls sitting beside us. Aigoo, Tiara was more extrobert (but still quite quiet), her friend 'Yi Ting' was totally like a dumb. Now I don't have any evil intention and want to talk bad about her, but she was soooo quiet until it's a bit awkward to be in a group.
Lastly, two guys joined in to fill up the table.
First dish: Appeitizer
Second dish: Vegetarian Pita Pockets
Third dish: Star Pizza
Lastly, cakes for desserts
And the black sesame puree cream.
Stop 2: Soup Spoon Union
Random nutella milkshake served while waiting for the mains. Very nice! Too bad no photo taken. =X
Chicken & Mushroom Ragout from Soup Spoon SG
Chicken Caesar Burger from Handburger
Khaosoi from Soup Broth Asia
By now, my tummy was fully loaded with food. All these for 2 to share?! How to finish it? Still got other stations one leh!
Stop 3: St Marc Cafe
Second time visiting it in a week!
Green tea latte, Classic Fuji and Chococro (takeaway)
Stop 4: Marche
By now I almost cannot eat further liao. Bumped into runcamelrun again, she was so excited that she did a high-five with PG mcs like the known each other for a long long time liao.
Prosciutto Ham Pizza
Norwegian Smoked Salmon Pizza
Apple Tart
Roasted Chicken Savoury Crepe
吃到這裡時
已經在那邊很死撐了
結果還是吃不完
Tiara won a prize for her review in the 8days app. runcamelrun and her ah lao won 2 times at one go for the instagram ! MCS! I cannot accept ds. Went Marina Square to walk walk before going over near to floating platform to see fireworks (NDP preview ds). There was this guy who was qs ssf mcs - talking to himself and shouting out the pledge when everybody around was standing there quietly enjoying the fireworks.
The fireworks was... errr... normal ba? Except this year they used a new fireworks where one could see a variety of colours from one burst. That one quite nice.
Went McD to redeem free coka cola drink then chill there and wait for time to pass. PG afraid his data explode as he kept surfing Instagram pics so tether for him to hook onto my data connection. Still, we managed only about 800 MB for that few hours of surfing and still, my data quota was never exceeeded! Total yang!
Then Nicholas went Changi Airport to meet HH for dinner @ 4Fingers. It's a mutual thing where Nicholas wanted to find out MOE interview from HH and HH wanted to SEE Nicholas lol. HDTM~
Went home to find that I won the Raffles City shopping mall contest with one of the pics taken at the 8 Days Eat event! TBH, IMO it wasn't the nicest among all. But who cares. Woohoo! This weekend is great (oh ya, I won $50 313 vouchers from the 313 social catalogue contest too)!
Damage for yesterday: $0 (!!!)

Soup spoon + RT-IPPT
Yet another tired, but yang day. Morning meeting went relatively smooth. Of course I met with tough points but I shall pass it for now.
As meeting ended early, whatsapp Joa where she going for lunch (she has the highest probability of staying in office whole day lo). She asked me where I am and asked me to hurry up.
Here comes the trolling part - she called me when I was exchanging pass and ran down the slope to grab a taxi, plus I muted my phone so I didn't hear it rang and therefore I didn't pick up the call mah. Then she put caps 'YOU DARE TO NOT TO PICK UP MY CALL' and then 'I'm moving your table!!!'... Jinja trolling lor omg~
Then sent in a picture of her moving my chair away. Jinja michorrseo! The trolling level is really. Don't know want to laugh or cry... Even PG cannot accept it, 看不下去 and wanted to imitate her. Eeeek!
Took bus 65 to Plaza Sing. Heng the bus just came after my taxi stopped in front of the bus stop, if not Joa will say she and JM will take the bus and ask me to take the next one. QS~ Literally no waiting time!
Had lunch at Soup Spoon. 好健康的午餐啊，全部都超低卡路里的。First time having a meal there lo, ordered a regular-sized SG Chicken & Mushroom Ragout and Swiss Cheese with Sweet Onion Jam to make up a set meal. Ok la, soup not bad and the onion jam used in the sandwich... Yes, according to Joa, it's something not everybody can accept. For me is ok leh...

蘑菇雞肉湯 ($8)
不是我想像中的蘑菇雞肉湯呵呵
但還是不錯味道啦
這個不錯一下的說
雖然沙律只是陪襯
竟然是那麼好吃的
而三文治呢
那個利用焦糖處理過的洋蔥醬
有個不是每個人都能接受的味道
對我來說
OK啊還蠻好吃的
Damage: $12.90
At lunch, we talked about overseas trips, sharing our experiences while we were in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, etc. Joa loves Hong Kong so much that I think it's a bit extreme lol... Her phone wallpaper, file are all Hong Kong related one. She loves the fast pace of life in Hong Kong, it's no wonder when I see her at work also everything do fast fast. When asked about nicest 菠蘿油, she said 錦華！Omo, I went to that place to try out ds! It's very nice jek.
JM said she doesn't really like Hong Kong because she went there after her stay in Taiwan. Taiwan has a touch of humanity there while in Hong Kong, the pace of life is so fast that people don't pay a lot of attention on you lo.
For me, I want Korea! I would want to visit Korea again, but for now I shall concentrate paying off the debt I have before I talk about anything else.
Then after lunch, went back to office by bus 64. Joa was super 誇張 as she was ranting about the bus service 154. Don't want to talk about the details but basically the bus driver was soooo slow moving during morning peak hour that Joa said she felt like use the phone and smack the bus driver. MCS?
And the work continued... Very tiring.
Left office at 5.10 pm. By the time I reached Bukit Timah Plaza, it was only at most 5.35 pm! Yang! Both 154 and 985 were very fast. Then 52 to Maju Camp. The queue for RT was super long... But today I just queued up for the IPPT. Haha, finished everything in 30 mins, yang!
