Played Mahjong still 4am on Saturday, and then woke up early in the morning to go to work. Which was a really horrible shift. I ended up really tired and when on got home that Sunday night. I went to sleep at 8pm. Really hard core sleeping, till morning when I went to work again. I still don't feel well rested, but I know that it's better than not having the 11 hours of sleep.
Well, this week's going to be hectic. I've got lessons on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Gotta go NaTAS fair on Friday evening, and I'm flying off on the Saturday!
So excited!

Saturday is finally here. I just love weekends. Especially this one. Cos I can sleep in the afternoon for like 2 hours. So shiok and therapeutic. Well, I'm in CT Scan now, which is nice. Workload is heavy, but it surely is good training. Been chronically losing sleep because I really can't sleep properly since my last night shift. Ah, what's new.
I'm going to Sydney to find Baobei next week! I'm so happy lah! First week's leave since work started last June. Also, my first trip to Australia and out of Asia. School's starting next week le. Got 3 lessons and one of them is in faraway Commonwealth.
Oh yes! We finally went for the Vermonster at Ben and Jerry's 20 scoops of Ben and JErry's ICe cream! Woohooo... There should've been a better chilling system though, the base was already milkshake when we got to it. But it still really shiok lah. Real big fat disruption to my weight lost program, ah well, it's a feat. Thanks Jeremy, Jonathan, Cai Pei, Peili, Evelyn and Liping who shared this madness with me.
Vermonster?
Vermonster!

Happy Valentine's Day. Lonely lonely lonely... Seeing all the couples out there looking so lovey dovey with flowers and stuff. Makes me miss darling alot more. Anyway, to all the couples out there, "Time to get real!" Wat? you were expecting me to say "may your relationship last forever"? Neh... Get real...
Anyway, I went to HTC Care Centre in freaking HarborFront. The care centre was surprisingly small, not many ppl there, maybe it's cos there aren't that many users of HTC products. Or maybe simply the products don't break down that much. Anyway, the experience was excellent. Service was prompt and smooth. Got out of the place within minutes. Ran into my Chua Kok Keng, my good ol buddy. Couldn't imagine that fellow working a proper job and wearing proper working clothes until I saw him just now. The meeting was brief but really nice. Been a while.
Finally, swimming at CSC. Nothing much, but I just can't stop wondering why there are so many lonely ppl (losers) swimming alone on Valentine's Day. Haha...

Wah, I just heard on radio that there's a character on Kung Fu Slam Dunk with the same Chinese name as my princess. Haha.
Chinese New Year's been a rather good one. The year of the pig has been a really nasty one for me. The very fact that I've sprained my ankle on the 3rd day of the year of the pig already says enough. So far, all the mahjong's been not too bad. Nett win, which is really nice, first time in many Chinese New Year (senseless) gambling sessions. Which brings me to another point.
When to Bernard's (yes my future in charge's) for mahong on the second night of CNY. His place is in Bukit Panjang! Goodness... FAR!! That aside, on the cab ride back, the cabby started a small talk with me. He was telling me that it's very bo hua to travel so far to gamble, win already oso cannot cover the travelling cost. Which is true, I spent all my winning plus a little more on the cab ride. But, then, the point in playing mahjong (at least to me) is not about gambling for money to spend, it's more of the social aspect and the brain training that comes along. Then the uncle was telling me that he plays mahjong with stakes of 1 dollar 2dollar. OMFG, that works out to $96 for a 5 tai zi mo. Then, he lost $300 plus on the first 2 days of CNY. Hmmm... Logically, how does one who earns around $2000 odd a month afford to lose a freaking $300 bucks? Sigh... Gamblers are mad...
Still
HUAT AH!!!

Darling's really gone le. It felt like it was just yesterday when she arrived at the budget terminal in Dec. This holiday's been a really good one. We've resolved some issues and spent alot of quality time together. Had alot of fun going around eating, shopping, having fun and getting fat. Though we've spent alot of time together in anticipation for her departure again, it's not enough. Separation is not easy, it can never get easier.
I'm waiting darling...
There's been some really good news at work which I'm really happy about. I'm not too sure what's going on and why it's happening. But since it's happened, I'm happy to take on these challenges.
LSBU application is successful too, hee... Back to hit the books in Feb. Wonder how I'll cope with the 2 years long course. We'll see.
Darling's going back le. So sad.
XOXO I'm waiting to see you again.
