Formula Drift 2008

Yesterday a bunch of dudes and dudettes went to the Formula Drift Singapore held at Changi Exhibition Centre. The sun was viciously hot and we were all near to melting point.

The HOT race queens. And if you think they are not Hot enough for you, let's move on to.. ..

Yah.. the "HOT" race kings. (Where got race king take umbrella one?..)

Just a mere few hours of "tia xia & pi yan" (听声闻烟 a.k.a. listen sound smell smoke）I was roasted. And I'm obviously miserable now because wearing my usual strap bra would hurt as though I'm being skinned off my shoulder.

And I finally just understood why this peculiar girl was heavily cladded in tight jeans and seemingly thick hooded jacket under the blistering sun. To think I was mocking her senseless choice of attire on a sizzling hot afternoon. She was so blardy smart, in her own way of course.

Our First FabulousX BBQ

Big thanks to Chris & Renee for preparing all the food.. and the rest of us who chipped in our 2 cents worth of help.

Mostly, the hungry men at work

Some Weird Shit

Fion was full of praises for Google.. because she was so bored that she had to google her own nickname, "ahfion"

Surprisingly, it came back with a list of search results.. about 4 pages while Yahoo could only offer 2.

And it goes to show that, Google beat Yahoo hands down. LOL``

Wah, Miss Lim! 4 pages sia!!! and it even has my name among your name(s).. "Friendster - Jade". Seriously, WTF?!

Why I hate Mornings

On the train, I met a woman whose sole purpose in life was to make mine miserable with her incessant head-turning-hair-slapping-on-my-face stunt.
If anyone has hair that's long and thick, for goodness sake BUNDLE IT UP or maybe shave it all. 'Cos your hair might not feel or smell as pleasurable when it hits people's faces in the crowded morning train.
And of course, stop turning your head left, right, left, right, left, right... Whatever for? Just stand still lah. Duh``

Andandand, the Hub did what I deem as an "unforgivable" act last night. LMAO.
He set his very own cousin on a date with his car mechanic, Brandon. Okay, not exactly a mechanic 'cos his da boss of FabulousX.
And Brandon insisted I be present so he can talk to me.. Wahahahahaha!! Poor boy.

Okay, I shall dispense with the "set-up-date" joke because the cousin felt awkward enough already.

Anyway, I shall continue working on my tender report for now.

Boxing Day

Q: When is Boxing Day?
A: Boxing Day is the following day after Christmas Day. It is on the 26 December. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is also a Public Holiday (unfortunately, it doesn't happen here in Singapore).

Q: Why is 26 December called the Boxing Day in England?

A: Traditionally, this was the day to open the Christmas Box to share its contents with the poor.

The few of us had dinner together yesterday evening. Our initial plan was to dine at IndulgZ Bistro but who would have known that the restaurant decided to take time off on Boxing Day.

Fret Not!! 'Coz we moved on to Siam Kitchen at Bugis Junction.

And since we couldn't get a chance to taste the former's "Lychee & White Wine Sorbet", we settled for the alternative. Siam Kitchen's "Lychee Freezee"!!!.. It tasted just like its name, very lychee and very freezy.

The food spread. Not much was ordered for we weren't much of big-eaters. (Except for PohLee who was stuffed-silly by his attentive & caring girlfriend)

PL was trying to.. I dunno what he was trying to prove anyway. But I just could not not post this st***d photo of him. (Sorry Jas)

Sze Hwee and Dawn

Fion and Me

Another st***d photo of PL eating with not-so-much flair. -duh-

Merry Merry

MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Thank you Jaslin..

Christmas 2007

Team B had our Christmas gift exchange today, like what we did one year ago. But it's a different feeling this Christmas because Sobi is leaving us for India very soon.

Christmas 2006

Christmas 2007

We will miss you, Sobi.

just hope

These days, Nepalis not Singaporeans guard some of the city's most senstive sites.

Gurkha soldiers - widely regarded as the most fearsome fighters in the world, are on the frontline of the city-state as Singaopre clamps down on Islamic militancy in the wake of the September 11 attacks in the United States.

The Gurkhas' main strength is their impartiality in the multiracial city-state of four million people.

Not being influenced by the local scene is part of their concept in Singapore. They just don't get emotionally involved in anything they may get caught up with

They are unique here in the sense that the Gurkhas are police officers... While a soldier is perhaps out there to kill people, Gurkhas here are essentially present to maintain the peace, and protect people and property.

Yet, a Gurkha cop is still a Gurkha. According to legend, once his kukri dagger has been drawn in battle, it must "taste blood". If it has not, its master has to cut himself before returning it to its sheath.

Stationed in Singapore on a temporary mission, the Gurkhas do not sink deep roots into the city's soil. They are not allowed to.

The principle of impartiality even forbids them to marry Singaporean women.

So far, only two or three of them have broken the tradition and chosen to stay in Singapore instead of returning to Nepal, one of the world's poorest countries and torn by a six-year-old Maoist rebellion that has claimed some 3500 lives.

********** **********

It is depressing to know that Nepalese are not allowed to stay permanently in Singapore, especially when one of them is your colleague/friend.
It is the feeling of being cast away from a country where you resided for the past 20 years and then they stripped off the opportunity for you to even continue working here.

It is unbelievably harsh.

And deep in our hearts, we know the reason why he would not be allowed but we will not stop trying for a miracle.

Hang in there Sobi. Don't give up yet.

Gone Bonkers, Imagination running wild

The following conversation will prove how difficult life is and it's causing us to be part schizophrenic beings.

ME: "Muack! Thanks for the effort. But what is the Pink font trying to prove?? -_-
So next time if I don't answer your phonecalls, I'll probably be having sex, 'cos it's more important / pleasurable than taking phonecalls.. Wahahahahaha!!!
Anyways.. Prince William was born on the 22 June.. so do we share the same interest???
-ahem-"

JASLIN: "Erm... Since Prince William born on 22 June.. I dun think he share same interest as u.. maybe Sobi's. And I purposely make it in pink, was worried that u see so many words dun wan to read.. but if scroll thru will at least see the pink points.. wahahaha~
Anyway... June 22 does not tells anything abt sex.. so.. not so sure if Prince William enjoys sex anot..
However... 22 June's baby: 靜思語 如果這輩子它不是你的，到了下輩子它絕對跑不掉的。 (If it's not yours to keep in this lifetime, it'll definitely be yours in the next) Erm.. Maybe u can wait till ur next life then? Cos.. obviously this life u two don't belongs together =p"

ME: "Wah, that is sooo encouraging, can't wait to die.."

JASLIN: "U are (gonna be) a vampire.. remember?? So... hmmmmm..."

ME: "No I quitted, remember??
Actually hor, If I'm a vampy also not bad.
I'll go bite Beckham, Prince William and Jay Chou.. Maybe if I get tired of them I'll go for... eh.. long list leh.. Brad Pitt, Ashton Kutcher.. blah and blah.. and Harry Potter (forgot his real name).. Muahahahaha!!!
Lastly, I'll bite Ronaldo and Van Nisterooy and then throw them into your bedroom.."

JASLIN: "Its okie... by that time.. I would had died or killed myself (b4 u could bite me too)... u can leave that two (Ronaldo & Van Nisterooy) to rot in my room... wahahaha~~~
And also.. if I was so unfortunate to be biten by u... then, i will send that two to the little town I was saying the other.. The police are trained in killing vampires!!! lalalalalala~~~"

ME: "Just thinking about it can be very funny liao leh..
Imagine what happens if I succeed in becoming a vampy, I think Jaslin will die laughing lor, or either train herself to be a slayer so she can kill/murder me, something which she cannot do in real life."

JASLIN: "Erm.. I will be Ghost Busters... or Ninja Turtles?? How about Power Rangers?? They all are here to Save The World..
World Peace~ =)"

The above will not make any sense unless you are also kinda flipped-out, like us. Think the fever is coming back. Fantastic, and everybody is falling sick, one after another.. ..

Settler's Cafe

It was another one of those boring Thursdays in the office. In order to spice up our day a teeny weeny bit, we decided to drop by Settler's Cafe for dinner and some games.

An evening full of table-banging screams and laughter.
