Happy Monday

I've mentioned this before (I think) that one way to not have the Monday blues is to go out on Sunday, get drunk, hang out with friends, eat a bomb and basically behave like it was an extended Friday night. Then you'd feel like Monday was a Saturday, except that instead of being able to sleep in you have to wake up and go to work.

Oh oops, now I get why there are Monday blues. Cos you can't sleep in. Lol. My bad. Ignore this post then. Hahahaha.

Why Today Was Such An Awesome Day

Slept in.
Met LGG at the Mandarin Oriental for champagne brunch.
Got drunk before 1pm by drinking on an empty stomach.
Free flow of booze.
Yummy buffet.
Received a wrongly-sent birthday greeting for KT on my phone from an Uncle S in London and proceeded to tell him how I (pretending to be KT) had a sex dream about him and how I (pretending to be KT) thought he was so hot.
Drunk called the grasshopper. Four times.
Drunk SMSed the grasshopper. Many times.
Convinced the grasshopper to declare that he missed me on FB.
Got back home and hung out with Mark.
Went for dinner with Mark, my sis, mom, nanny and SF.
Ate too much.
Went for ice cream after, despite eating too much.

Booze. Good food. Good company. That's all you really need to make it an awesome day, eh?

Happy New Year!

Almost a week into 2010 and I haven't written any new year resolutions. Well, that's because I haven't any this year. Heehee.

The past year flew by in such a flash. So many changes happened in such a short span of time. Heh, I know I said I wouldn't talk about it anymore but, I'm summarising the year lah. Some of the highlights of 2009:

- my divorce was finalised
- travelled a helluvalot (malacca, kota kinabalu, danang, bangalore (x5 lol), calcutta, bombay, delhi, jakarta, goa)
- met the grasshopper
- celebrated one year at my current job
- made plenty of new friends
- started boozin' again
- started going to the gym again

All in all, I have to say it was a good year despite the change in marital status. The last year ended on an awesome note with me counting down to the new year in a club in Goa, while looking at a sky lit with fireworks.

2010 started off fabulously and it seems to bode well for the rest of the year. Cheers to that. :)

More Progress!

Wahahahaha not only have I discovered the 2 fingered scrolling thing on my macbook, I finally figured out how to open links in a new tab. A bit slow, but better late than never eh?

*beams*

Teeheehee

I'm so pleased. For the past couple of days, I've been asking everyone who uses a mac where the page up / page down button is. Scrolling up and down using the tiny arrow key was quite tiring and I was wondering why they didn't have a page up / page down button.

And now I know why. I just discovered the 2 fingered scrolling thing which makes navigating a page SO MUCH EASIER. *love*

Queen of Procrastination

My flight is at 8pm. I have to be at the airport at 6pm. It's 5.40pm and I'm on my way home. I've not packed yet. Lol.

Anyway we had the office Christmas party today and had a blast. We all dressed up as rocker chicks and there was a Guitar Hero competition which my colleagues took part in.

There were 3 teams and 3 prizes, but had to forfeit the chosen song. Instead they played a song of their choice and had to settle for third. They got a bonus cash prize of $100 cash each for showmanship though. Lol!

It was really fun cheering them on. Everyone dressed up, wore outrageous make up, painted our nails black, and screamed our hearts out.

Had a couple of last minute meetings after and that's why I left the office late. I reckon I should have enough time and won't miss my flight. I hope.

Lol. 2 weeks in India. Woot!

Unexpected

A random chat with the grasshopper. The sharing of college experiences and stories. Describing an old friend who I ran into the other day.

This was what happened when suddenly I remembered something that I had forgotten about so many years ago. Something that lay dormant in the deep recesses of my mind. Something that sprung up unexpectedly, resurfacing when you never thought it would.

The mind is a funny thing eh. How it's able to blank out certain incidences, and only when specific triggers have been activated, do you remember what it was.

Amazing. And quite disconcerting.
