Yes! You spotted him!
The bosses bane...
I guess there are teachers pets in school, and bosses pets at work. It's something that happens no matter where you are. While some people just get favoured by the boss for no reason, others like me just never fail to make them puke blood.
Me: So whose moving...
Boss: Not confirmed..
Me: Mechanical Engineers?
Boss: The other boss likes Civil Engineers too...
Me: Sigh. So sad. How come all the rest of the bosses like me, except you...
Boss: Cough Cough Gack Ack...What makes you think... Gasp Gack... I don't like you.. Cough Gasp Cough
Me: See, you're coughing.
Boss: Cough... It... cough.. means.. I am... cough... telling... cough.. the truth.. cough cough
Me: You're almost puking blood, boss...
Boss: Cough cough Ack Ack Gasp... Who Gaccck say? ....Blood splattering....

On iphone...
Playing Piggy vs Woogy... name sounds off, but it's like bejewelled... with a twist. Objective is to prevent the small wolves from reaching the top. I'm just finished straw and wood... now at the stone house..
Pocket summoner.. kinda like pokemon. Somehow I am a sucker for pokemon games, dun ask me why.. haha... Kana say by colleague that I keep fighting people of lower level and winning. Takes dem long, but its good for killing time.
Exorcist again..
Just caught the rite... another exorcism movie. It's not as bad as the last one.. "the Last Exorcism" or something, can't really remember the name. But it's just not as good as the real thing. Nothing like the old exorcist. Green puke is changed to nails. No unrealistic Baal fire or baby, but you should've guessed, Baal is still the star. And Anthony Hopkins tries his best to bend back to mimic the head twisting stunt in the original, but I guess he's quite old and we shouldn't ask him to bend too far back, else he really gets hurt.
Ok I'm a skeptic, but serious;y I'd rather catch Mr and Mrs Incredible and see how Sandra Ng or Louis Khoo use laser eyes on a wall.

Beer at the Quay..
Supposed to have basketball on Friday night, but it started raining just before we left the office, so we decided to go for beer instead. What was supposed to be an evening of sweating and exercise, turned out to be a night of beer and dares. Iphone has hordes of software for truth or dare, so we just picked one. The questions were really duh... which bus seat u like best? which part of you do you like best? (this came out twice) and who is your best friend. Somebody should really shoot the programmer. Nonetheless, we had our fun, putting in a colleagues name 4 times in a row, keying nicknames instead of our common names and finally calling it quits when we all ran out of questions. A good change for basketball, but I think we should stick to the court for coming Fridays. :)
If
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!
Something a friend sent me..

Hectic..
Think I really have to learn time management. Went to office, got an email out, sent out 7 sets of pins, drafted a letter, spoke to one of the bosses for instruction, keyed in a report, ran out to deliver food cos i was late, ran back to get signature, then finally had some time for lunch. Haven't even applied for leave for tomorrow or paid my bills, and I still have to wait for a contractor to come down to get the letter, look at legal clauses to charge someone, get some docs scanned, and then send them to another office. Plus need to do transport claim, still owe someone an email to teach someone how to reply some idiotic enquiry and need to clear some training stuff with another office, plus need to raise a circular to remind ppl to attend some other training. Not to mention, need to take statements and draft report. And tomorrow I'm applying for leave to go back to my hometown! Either I'm too slow, or there's too much to do. Think I should really see how to do things more efficiently.
Iphone4!!!!
Muahahaha... finally I have joined the darkside... took me the whole night downloading songs, aps, pics and customizing ringtones.. phew.. finally got it to ring "T-ara's Bo Peep" and have a "Samurai Champloo" wallpaper.. was trying to recomplete cut the rope festive edition this morning, but dunno why it seems more difficult on the iphone than on ipad. Anyway, think I'm gonna get sick of the phone real soon. Haha ironic.
Home cooking...
Went for grocery shopping and decided to make something for dinner. Ended up with long beans and egg, and lemon chicken. I really have to expand on my cook book. Or maybe take a cooking course some time. Well, just one meal, simply eat also can la... haha.
zzzz..zz..z..z...zzz?

We almost dere!!
Slam dunk!!!
Ok none of us did, but its a good game anyway. Everyone stamina seemed to be better this time, and we ended up playing till 830pm. Working life is just too hectic not to have anything in between, so these basketball sessions are just a gem for me. Though I think I'd be decommissioned for at least 2 days, but what the heck, its the weekend anyway. Haha. :)
Work..
Went to site to meet a 3rd party specialist to review some accident...
Coded an inspection...
Interviewed and almost strangled a PE...
Started on a report...
Somehow, it just feels that today is not really productive..
Point to Ponder
Today I learnt that everything changes with time. We always feel that certain things would never change and that everything would be as it is, especially with certain things or people that we are confident in. But in reality, no matter how much you feel or hope or wish for something, nothing is or will ever the same. People change, things change, even memories defer from what it actually felt like.
I also learnt that everyone is being judged every second of the day. Our friends judge us, our family judge us, our peers judge us, not to mention our bosses and everyday people we meet. And we in turn judge people for what we feel they are like and what we think they should be. And people like to expend advise on how we should live our lives, on how we should be judging ourselves and how we should judge others. No one lives the day thinking that we should just treat everyone in kind and hope that kindness would come back to us any more.
Perhaps maturity is about learning the harsh realities of life. Perhaps giving up on being happy is the only way a person can be happy. Or perhaps happiness is a state of mind, and really does not exist.

Season of the Witch
That time of the year
Just had my annual haircut...look like small kid again.. have to wait one year to grow back... sob sob...
Trying.. trying and trying..
Think I should start to sit back for a while and deal with my own work before helping others settle theirs :)
Bird Safe...
Colleague saw a strange bird being injured and decided to call AVA to save it. The bird was gone the second time they got there... so lets just pray that AVA got to it before some cat did.
Late night...
Spent almost 3 hrs on site trying to get them to recover the crane, but still ended up waiting till the next day for it to be done. All we ended up with working till 9m was gastric and being drenched from head to toe.
NBA!!! New Basketball Associates!!
Haha... another round of basketball... and more guys joining in the game this time! It's just great workout and wonderful to have a whole team playing together. :) We did cause some soccer players to change their schedule, but that's beyond the point.
I think I really need more exercise, heart palpitations, still panting hours after the game... and muscles aching like I just ran a marathon. It's a miracle I haven't had a heart attack after not moving for so many years!! Think I am going to be decommissioned for another week. Hopefully the next game will be better. :P
Atchoo...
