Gathering cancelled

Our gathering with the juniors is cancelled cause too many people could not make it last minute. So a very sorry to the guys and girls out there ya! Anyway at Kemin they recuited 2 new female temp staffs, 1 for Sara, the other for microlab. And guess what? They are just JC students!! OMG! How cheapo! The rate they pay JC students, I'm guessing is much much lower than a Poly graduate! Plus they are very inexperienced with very little lab work done in school. Sara was already complaining abt how she had to babysit her assistant. Somemore that girl just refuses to wear specs when she had such bad eyesight. Blur blur. Why not get Patsy?!! Life will be so much better. And today, the other girl came to work for a while. Maybe just a tour. I think she's a bit better than Biochem's one. Seems to be a bit smarter. Talked to her for a while while she's learning to fill pipette tips. Then she left during lunchtime. She's gonna replace me after my contract ends this year.
So as the gathering was cancelled, met up with Lance and Wee Long for dinner at the Starhub building in Orchard. Then headed on to Raffles hotel to a Pub called "Long Bar". It's my first time there, the atmosphere is quite nice, and it seems to be a very very popular hangout for ang mohs. 90% of the bar is filled with ang mohs! There was a live band performing also and they were fantastic! They performed Maroon 5's popular songs and quite a lot of disco songs by Earth, Wind and Fire. Must be a Taufik fan! Tried the authentic "Singapore Sling", it's quite nice, fruity plus alcoholic. Also there's an unlimited flow of peanuts haha. The whole bar was full of peanut shells. Left the place abt 2330 hrs and headed for home sweet home.
