Was sitting there, stoning away. Wahliew. I think I might have better ways to spend my time than sit in there. But ok, it&#8217;s&#8230; &#8216;great exposure&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>And then, had discussions now and then, and more stone-arounds in office.\u00c2\u00a0 Lunch and dinner were both at seletar seafood (at night, nothing&#8217;s edible out there, except this). And then, home on taxi. Table tennis session was ok. Nothing much in particular.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, we all cleared 1 day leave to go play badminton\/table tennis and KTV. Note: we all took leave. No obligations, no &#8216;what-do-I-get-in-return&#8217; questions. Some people, just don&#8217;t get it. I thought managers should be good at managing people&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>There are exceptions. When there is an exception, people will start to THROW. All managers should know that. When a software encounters an error, it will sometimes, generate an exception. If the exception is not handled, the software crashes.<\/p>\n<p>Software and human. They behave similarly in some ways.<\/p>\n<p>Badminton was not bad. Made my hands and legs ache for 2 days. Zzz. Lunch was at Sakae, and then ktv at partyworld. Party!<\/p>\n<p>At home, my \u00e5\u00a4\u00a7\u00e5\u00a7\u0090 threw a bomb about going to bangkok end of next month&#8230; Hmmm&#8230; maybe I can make it&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Was busy stripping someone&#8217;s laptop at home after that. Strip&#8230; gentle and slowly, one piece, by one piece. Let&#8217;s not get hurt baby. WAHAHAHA!<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>Saturday was alright. Went to queensway with huahui for some shopping. He went to restring his racket. I bought that jacket that did not seem waterproof. No, it is NOT waterproof. Dryfit stuffs, how can be waterproof. LOL.<\/p>\n<p>Tennis till 5+, and then hopped down to suntec for dinner with eddy, jianliang and zhiwei. Yummy buffet at pearl river palace restaurant. There were 3 groups of people celebrating birthdays. Wow. LOL. Heard the birthday song 3 times. Heh. Oh well, some chui babes here and there, but then, there&#8217;s this girl that looked familiar somehow. Very familiar. But I just could not recall.<\/p>\n<p>Oh well.<\/p>\n<p>And then, coffee at starbucks. There&#8217;s this nice nice tumbler that costs $17.90, but I thought I had no use for it, so did not buy. Discussed about vietnam. Hmmm&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Interesting&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>Sunday was another tennis afternoon. Played until 5+ as usual, and then went over to IMM for some shopping. Bought nothing much actually. Was looking for suitable jackets\/windbreakers. Went to New Balance FOS. They had a foldable\/packable windbreaker, but I think it was a bit too thin. Went to World Of Sports and saw a Columbia jacket. Too thin too. And then, Timberland. Too heavy! Heh. I am very particular.<\/p>\n<p>Ngiao.<\/p>\n<p>MEOW.<\/p>\n<p>At 9.30pm, received a call from my \u00e5\u00a4\u00a7\u00e5\u00a7\u0090, saying she wanna ktv!!! 10pm! Wahliewww&#8230; in the end, only youhui and I could make it. And so, we chiong down lor, to clementi (oh well, AGAIN), and ktv till 2am. Zzz&#8230; We ordered a jug of beer too. Really party leh.<\/p>\n<p>Reached home around 3am. Decided to stone around before I sleep. Actually there&#8217;s nothing much online nowadays.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>Woke up at 9.30am. I did not remember switching off my handphone alarm, which was supposed to ring at 6am. Duhz. Maybe it knew today&#8217;s hols?<\/p>\n<p>What a fat maybe.<\/p>\n<p>Trained reflex: to turn off handphone alarm while still in dreamland.<\/p>\n<p>Spent the whole day cleaning up my desk. Found strange things, and threw away strange things too. Found lots of cards. Actually, I keep all cards that are given to me during different occasions. Heh. Ok la, 1 person topped the list leh&#8230; what an old friend&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>OLD friend who is celebrating her bday today. WAHAHA!<\/p>\n<p>Ok la, this year, no card for you! Maybe pass you back your laptop as a present. =p<\/p>\n<p>Ok I damn bo xim hor? &#8230; LOL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alright, I had a busy weekend!
