Big Boss arrives.....
Work again today, well it's Thursday! Today is the day of the arrival of the Big Boss, Chris Nelson. Everyone was quite jittery, get to clean up the lab abit, most of the tidy up was done by Jeffery, so just sat around ahaha. I found that Jeffery and Philip loves to clean up the lab everytime, morning and before the end of the day. I'll just wash up my stuff and whatever is in the sink. Well Dr Koh dropped by today to visit his students on their project. He didn't know I was here, so when I came out to greet him he's very shocked! It was really funny to see his shocked face, I bet it's the same face when he saw Yingfang working there also.
Hmmmmmmmmm so this is his expression in ascii: 0_0!
After the students meeting with Alex and Dr Koh they became stressed again................so gloomy. Jeffery's face was all black! But they'll be fine later, wonder why Jeffery always laugh when he talks to me.... anyway he does that to everyone he talks too haha. Talking about gloomy, I think the lab I'm working in has a very dark and gloomy feeling, giving a very stressful environment........no wonder. Sara's (my ex-mentor) lab has a very happy feeling when I'm in it! Anyway Chris Nelson came to the lab for a look, well he quite a typical american, though he seems to give that aura that he is able to spot any mistakes you make however small..
Everyone was asking if I regret working here, well the answer is yah, if not for the pay and some of the dear friends I have here, I won't even work here. Haha.

Oh ya I came across this newspaper article saying that Excessive swearing causes men to be impotent and females to develop male characteristics (example moustache). Ya so guys out there please try not to swear too much or else you might never have a wonderful sex life.

Last Day at IRAS
Hooray! Today is my last day of work! At 5 pm, Eugene, Jenny and I decided to go celebrate by watching a movie.........but when we reached orchard, went to Lido........no show, so went to Cathay..........no show haha, sian. In the end we ate at Sakae Sushi at HMV as both of them had a craving for sushi. But sushi buffet over liao, so we went for ala carte sushi!!!! And for the first time we tried cold SAKE. Not very used to the taste as it has a very unpleasant before and after taste, a very alcohol taste. Down abt 3 cups...... stop, feeling a bit bloated after eating so much, Jenny best dunno how many cups she drank, at first she gave a very weird face after tasting it, later she found it sweet after a few cups. Hmmm seems drinking sake needs aquired taste also. *Impressed*.
As we slowly sipped our sake and trying to get each other drunk, Eugene as usual crapping alot ahahahah, actually everyone is crapping! (it's the sake!!). Later started talking abt those lovey dovey moments. Well I find that finding love is isn't easy, falling in love is very easy. Honestly I tend to like a person quite easily after getting to know her more, but after a few rejections I have been keeping my emotions in check, never to fall in love again. Eugene aka love expert told me: Spot potential targets, there's only 4 singles left in our League, you, Neil, Ewan and Leroy. Jenny aka Lovey dovey expert: After NS it's EVEN HARDER to FIND a girlfriend, Look at my brother.............single! Well, I don't know when I will meet miss right, maybe tomorrow, next month, years, never or she may be actually the person whom I knew all along. I think I'm quite a bad lover hahaha, I think I'll drive my gf to madness...........

Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow
Watched the show at Lido today with Peishan, Ewan and Jenny. Wasn't a very good show, it's quite blur, literally. Well I guess the director wanted an old film feeling in the show where there where brownish film screening, softness in the motion effect and cheezy dialogues. The story was pretty much a blur too until near the end where you finally realized what the heck is going on. The soft effect was too much and it was quite irritating on the eyes when watching this. CG effects are nice though. Although the show had a old film feeling I can't help but felt that the show is disappointing despite of the hype.
Ratings: 2/5

Sunday is a love and hate day. Love it cause it's a day to relax, then hate it cause the next day is Monday. How contradicting right? Well I'm gonna change job soon, from tax officer back to a researcher? WELL............ don't really know what to talk about. Got to see Ryan again online after 2 weeks! He's giving us advices................better train well before you go into the Army. O oh.......I think I better start running, I'm just not good at distance running since young. Maybe because I'm quite a weak boy since young, not enough Chi. Well I think it's time to changed my blog to a new design soon.

Couldn't really sleep last night, it's the caffine from my Latte that was keeping me awake. I should slap myself for taking coffee in the late night. Bleah. In the morning, went to the airport with my family to send my father off as he's going to Indonesia for a few days. Bought myself another new book today, called "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". It's quite an old book already but it's quite interesting when I browsed it. Played my guitar today, my playing was horrendous. Not a very condusive day to play the guitar, couldn't sing well also (maybe all along my voice suck hahahaha). I feel like taking guitar lessons cause I think I reached my limit for self-learning but I'm going to NS soon so it's useless now. I want to learn bass, piano and the drums too! Haha I'm so greedy. Maybe I should try being a bassist cum guitarist. So cool, like Tetsu. It's Monday again tomorrow.......... so sian back to IRAS for work, but at least there's something to do tomorrow, I love lunchtime, there's always funny crappy friends to entertain us!
Went out with Weiching on Saturday cause I wanted to buy an Astro book for myself and also to teach the juniors but amazingly she mistook that I was going to look for a present. I wonder how did that happen? Haaha, anyway we met at 4pm then went to Kinokuniya to look for my Astro book before settling on the "Astronomy Demystified", the rest of the books are damn expensive. Later went to the library to slack and wait for time to pass, before walking to the Waraku restaurant at the Starhub building. It's becoming my new fav eating place after I discovered it while walking aimlessly a few months ago. So we waited in the restaurant for Yingfang as she is late while deciding what to eat. I ordered my Asahi beer as usual while waiting for the girl to come. Later all of us chatted, had our dinner, then went for a walk to heeren as Yingfang need to change her watch strap, then walked to takashimaya, finally to City hall to drink coffee at the city link. Argggg, the latte is so Expensive for it's size! SO SMALL. Seems that I had no luck in drinking coffee of late, also I keep spilling my drink, dunno why. Well it's quite a long time since I met the girls again, the last time was in the hospital, nothing much chged about them. It's good to see them again, but Patsy wasn't there. When it's time to move on, move one yah. Oh YA, I saw the CNA newscaster Suzanne Ho while leaving the cafe, Yingfang was pointing to her to me. SHE'S TALL! I love watching her every morning on the bus! HAhaah she's very pretty and always brighten up my day!

Practical: 5/10
Physical: 4/10
Giver: 3/10
You are a RPIT--Reserved Practical Intellectual Taker. This makes you a Love Geek.Heh heh -- you love geek! You are weirdly sexy. It doesn't take people a long time to get to know you, but people *think* it takes a long time, because you are as cool and regulated after a year as you are on a first meeting. You don't tend to date casually -- you just suddenly find yourself in long term relationships. Your approach to conflict is your greatest asset -- it complements almost every other type. You don't express yourself or your feelings in dramatic terms, but you will speak up to those who do. You are generally calm, but capable of ramping up, and you don't give up until the issue is resolved -- this means even the hottest temper or coolest conflict-avoider can feel comfortable pursuing their satisfaction with you. And you don't hold a grudge -- you get through it, and it's done. You rock. Sure, you like the sex. And you communicate with your partner well, so you're good at it. But it's not something you would make jokes about or bring up in polite company (not that you don't appreciate that kind of humor). You're no prude, but that's just not your style. You'd make an excellent parent. You enjoy food and can be a ravenous eater. A good cook will get your attention quickly.Of the 120733 people who have taken this quiz, 5.3 % are this type.

Astro Mooncake festival BBQ (29/09/2004)
Was invited to a BBQ event for astro to celebrate mooncake festival at NP. After work reached there at ard 5.30 pm clubhse no one so went to the Library with a fellow member to read some astro magzines. Then later went over to the Kissmiss area where we had our BBQ, but the guys wasn't doing very well with starting a fire, Neil was there too. So everyone took turns to create a fire, still not so good. Must be bad quality charcoals. We had maggi mees while waiting for the members to cook the food, so hungry! Then chat ard and as usual crap with each other and finally play sparklers!! It's been a long time since I played sparklers. Then we got our photographer to take photos for us, by the time we ended it was about 11 pm. But it was a fun day!

Outing (01/10/2004)
Had a last minute outing with Jenny, Peishan, Ewan and Jasmine in Orchard. Went down to Orchard after work with Jenny to meet them and while waiting we did a bit of shopping. Jenny bought this humongous bag which I think you can put a living toddler in it! Why women like to carry super big handbags? Dunno what they store in them. Anyway we met in Taka and went for dinner at Magic Wok in Far East, cheap and Ok dinner. Next we went to Coffee Club next to the Canifornia GYM. I ordered a Tiramisu Latte - It sucks, no alchohol taste at all which it stated. After a sucky coffee, Ewan got craving for sea hum, so our next stop was the open hawker near centrepoint. Got us a table but lacked a seat so got one frm the next table, two pretty ladies and one guy sitting so ask if I can take the chair, the girl seemed a bit blur, the guy nicely said ok. Didn't realized that the two girls were japanese until Ewan told me haha, well at least I smiled at one girl and she smiled back. ;P Finally we our last stop is at PS where we chatted more until we decided to go home. Jas and I took 65 back but waited for the damn bus for an hour! We took 64 instead and then change to 61. So dead tired back home haha.
Sat (02/10/2004)
It's Saturday! Went down alone to Penisula Plaza to buy a pair of shoes cause I got a sudden urge to get a new pair of shoes........maybe to replace the one I bought 3 years ago hehe. Got myself a blue converse sneakers, loved the cool blue colour. Then went to Marina square to buy a 5Kg dumbbell to train, after that dragged the dumbbell all the way back home. Whew!
