Not too sure why I just couldn't bring myself to continue sleeping despite the fact I slept at 2+am last night. Woke up at 10am... Duh!!!
Last night's BBQ was quite a success in which the fire was so strong it keeps having fire coming out.... Cheerios to Emily! *or perhaps.. it's because of the super expensive fire starter @ $6!!*
We did not buy too much food cos we were scare that we couldn't finish it... In the end we felt there was too little food to BBQ!
The barangs that cost us 90+bucks~
Self entertaining..
The cooked food
Vivian & I got bored as Emily was on the phone....
I think we should meet up often and it was really fun last night !!!!
Next time will buy more food at the right place. LOL.

This shot is so cute... Vivien was like Eeewww... Go Away! Don't kiss me Kas!!!!
Darren, Johnson + his MT mates, Crane & her BF joined us too!
The food was delicious, maybe because we were hungry?
Alvin came and join us at a later time. Everyone just queue up to take photo with him. Hahahahah~ Popular sia.
Patrick sang really well. Vivien's idol. Gee.
I love clubbing with spontaneous people. I found them. Not forgetting my best-clubbing-buddy Emily!!!
24 Oct 2008 - Amanda's Pre-Birthday Celebration @ The Pump Room
It was everyone's 1st visit there. Great ambience though the only regret was I forgot to make reservations before hand. So in the end we ended seating at the smoking zone. We almost died of choking ourself... Haha. Other than that, everything was marvelous. Nice beer there too!
THE PUMP ROOM
Camwhoring !!
Beer (tasted like Heineken! *thumbs up*), Salmon set, Beef Burger and Seafood platter
SURPRISE Amanda ! *may your wishes come true* We bought her a dress that has alot of ways to wear it. And we thought it would be great to let her wear it for Xmas.
Me, Birthday Gal, Lisa & Anu
The band played great music too. And we were laughing all the way due to weird people around us doing funny actions.... LOL.
Everyone was dancing the night away...
I would visit it again given a chance. Hearts.
Meeting Wenxin and the Jie-Meis to buy the bride's maid dress later in the evening... Now is movie time with Bf. Tropic Thunder here I come....

.:: Mood ::. Sigh~
Market condition bad = Me bad
Me bad = No sales
No sales = No commission
What to do??
Nowadays boss also don't ask for sales anymore. He wont go like this," How come no sales? Are you guys doing your teleconsulting? Are the tellers doing their tagging?"
You don't hear all these sentences anymore. Don't know if it's good or bad thing.
It's like I'm counting my blessings if there are no complaints from the customers about their investments. Much less say about sales.
I just hope the whole turmoil will come to an end soon.
God Bless Us. Not I PAN TAN... But I guess the Rat year is really a bad year filled with loads of ups and down everywhere around the world!!!!!!!! Gosh.
On a side note, it's even more sad to see my dear friend lost some part of her memory. BIG SIGH~~!!!!!!!
MY DEAR GIRL, I JUST HOPE YOU CAN REMEMBER EVERY ONE AGAIN SOON!!!!!
SPEEDY RECOVERY. ^^
Big Hug, VaL

.:: Mood ::. Pout
Is god playing a joke on BF & me?
I have been wanting to visit the ZOO... (if you recall I have mentioned alot of times in my previous post) ....
BUT..... My many attempts failed.
Why? Last week, Bf & I were on our way there in a cheery mood. But to our dismay, the sky turned dark. I insisted on going in, so.... right after we went in. The rain started pouring down after 5minutes of walk. Arghghghghhh~~~
So we got the staff there to revalidate our pass. The most they can go is one week from last Wed. Thus I changed my Off day in hope to visit the Zoo today.
And.... It rained again!!!!!
Why? ? Is it because God is trying to avoid me from going there? I wonder.
We did not give up and tried our luck to ask for another chance of revalidity. Luckily we got to extend another week. This time round, its the last time!
Will you guys help me pray that next Wed it does not rain??? Will you?
I just don't wish to waste 40+bucks away like this. *praying*
Thanking you in advance ya. ^^
P/S: I got the tickets and bookings for my Xmas Bali getaway with BF!!!! Yay~~~
Praying, VaL

.:: Mood ::. Cheers
Today, I attended Marcus & Emily's wedding dinner @ Meritus Mandarin Hotel.
About 180 people from OCBC turn up for their wedding. We were murmuring, it looks like our company D&D rather than their wedding. LOL!
Conclusion: Great food, great company and great entertainment! :)
Congratulations to both. Sweet couple I would say! *beams*
Photos coming up....
Looking at the clock, it's 2am and I should be sleeping. Tml is gonna be a long working day. Boo!
On a side note, remember 3 months ago I said I made a friend angry and we didn't talk till tonight.
She said "Sorry!" to me for using the harsh words than. Oh well.... I guess I have forgotten the sadness. But I would just say things will never be the same again though we will and can be friends again.
Life moves on and hopefully tomorrow is gonna be a beautiful day for everyone.
Cheers, VaL

.:: Mood ::. OMG!
Can I just shout out loud to North Cluster . . .
"YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!!"
We did a great dance performance in the Quarterly Update last night.
Everyone had fun @ Oosh! including me.
After everything, we headed for more fun at Lunar. *grin*
The cheorography was beautifully done by Alvin Fang.
He's just one talented guy.
Really all thanks to him, we won the 1st price!
Frankly, the dance team was not given much time to rehearse.
When I mean not much... is like 4-5 days of practice after work.
So they did extremely well.
Wosh!!
I shall let the video below say it all. *beams*
Our cluster people dress in India costume while the rest of the 5 clusters dress in...
Japan, Korean, Mongolia
and
blah blah blah~~~~
Nice.
A lot of different characters . . . . .
Everyone in North Cluster
Now........
The beautiful & handsome dancers!!
*claps*
It was nice to see the spirit we had. 3 cheers!
Oh man, I have so much to share yet so little time to do so.
JAM IT!
Time to sleep. My eyes are half open only!!! *yawn*
