still around

Yeah, I am the above.

Although I am suffering from severe exhaustion.

Travelling seems to be the key word this month.

Doesn't really help when e-money has just been granted.

Actually am feeling rather contented.

:)

retreat once again!

I have spots on my wrists as a result of playing beach volleyball yesterday morning. It was a short 10 minutes game for me because I couldn't stand the 11 o'clock heat. I was literally showering in my own sweat. It wasn't sexy.

I sacrificed my weekend for a 'free holiday' a.k.a. company retreat, yet again. This time it's a little different as the crowd was smaller and the people who attended were more familiar to me. I guess it was also better because I had no pressure to sound smart (didn't have to emcee this time!).


While waiting for all to arrive and this includes the VIPs such as the Head of Departments and of course our dearly young and handsome CEO. That was my original seat before we were shuffled around. I ended up sitting right in front of the mic-stand. So I could see all the freckles the CEO has on his face. Woot woot.


Together we CAN make it! This was the exact spot where all the CBKians performed 2 songs for all the audience. The performance was real funny considering that we didn't have proper practice for it. I hope no one took a video of the performance because its something that I don't want to hear again.


Guoman Beach - my room was overlooking the beach and golf course. The view was breathtaking. However the weather was a bit too hot that weekend.


Guoman Beach at sunset. And that was the pool I kept wishing to jump into. I didn't because I don't have the proper attire and I ... erm.. can't swim.


Gala Dinner food feaaaaaaaaast! The stupidly-themed 'Sports Night' Gala Dinner was a blast with great variety of food and many crazy headed drunken men. I was pleased that many knew my name and who I was. And ooh, I was nominated for best dressed thank you very much! Just so you know, I didn't wear anything fantastic. Don't ask me why I was up on the runway parading my outfit.


There! What was I wearing? I don't know but supposedly a tennis attire. Haha. So that got me nominated as one of the best dressed. Those things in my hands were prizes from the activities we had earlier that day. Yippee!

Overall the retreat was fun. Guess it was an opportunity to bond a little closer to the people I work with.

OK where do I start?

Just got back from the most expensive dinner to date. I'm due to pay RM150ish for an Italian dinner we had to celebrate my boss' birthday and presents we bought for him. The dishes were all right and the ambience was kinda cosy. It's just those bottles of wine that made my pocket burn a little too much.

Oh by the way, Happy Labour Day to all the pekerja buruh from all over the world. As usual, when it comes to my day off work, mornings don't exist. Today was really easy going, although the only challenge I had was to search for a sports outfit for this weekend. I don't think I have succeeded so I'm just going to turn up with whatever I could come out with tomorrow night.

I'm lazy to go to work tomorrow as it would be a Friday and I find it a little pointless to get the momentum going when the weekend is just the next day. I wish I could go to the office in my casual wear i.e. shorts and a tee. They really should make Fridays as Casual day. I think it would somehow motivate employees to go to work on the last work day of the week.

Bah.

ouch

Major headache

Sore tonsils

Chest pain


:(

memory lane

After last night's clubbing session to celebrate my boss' birthday, I realised that I don't utilise my beloved camera anymore. I really wish to snap more photos than I currently am but there's never an opportunity to do it.

Since I've got nothing planned on this heaty Sunday, I decided to check out the photos I have taken since I was in first year uni. That's 5 years ago.

In that half a decade, I have had many hairstyles. There were times when my hair was toooooo long where I could see my splitends from a distance. There were times I was sorta blonde - quoting my uncles, "Pergi mandi air karat ke?"

There were also times when my friends from school visited me all the way in the land of William Wallace. Family trips, holidays of the world, and surprisingly horrifying gazillion of food pictures.

I browsed through thousands of pictures but I only have one favourite picture.....






BWAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA! Oh God, whatever happened to these cute little creatures?

check

I'm on MC today because I woke up this morning with a stomach cramp at which when I was in the bathroom, I couldn't stand up straight. I was contemplating the whole time I was getting ready whether or not I should head to work or to the clinic. I settled with the latter and soon the doctor told me I was having gastric pain. It's actually not a surprise for me as I know for a fact that I eat untimely.

I came back home, forced myself to have breakfast and still the pain doesn't go away. So I thought of checking on other possible causes of stomach pain online. To my surprise, I realised that I don't know much about the human anatomy. I guess I didn't take much opportunity of learning it when I lived with medical students for that 2 years of my uni life.

Anyway, I thought this is really useful especially for those who often suffer from abdominal pain.

I've finally gone to the doctors and checked the pain out. I know it has been months but I did it, didn't I? x

remove

I think I want to remove my tonsils as they hurt real bad once every fortnight. I heard some people get rid of them and they still live like regular human beings, so I don't think cutting them off is such a big of a deal.

I was shocked to see my left hand the morning after I did the noble thing. I couldn't recognise my left arm - it was disgusting. Now it's looking more sickening as the colour is starting to turn a little off.


Anyway, ugly thing aside. I met up with a whole lot of familiar faces last night and it was such an excitement. We catched up with work, friends, families and memories throughout our Italian dinner. While we were having our feast, the mosquitoes too, were having a party underneath the table we were seated at. And I felt as if my legs were the main dish.


Now I'm thinking, maybe my tonsils hurt because I scream so much at my hard-to-control siblings who are driving me up the wall. Or is it because I had soo much to eat these couple of days? Some food allergies I'm not aware of, perhaps?
