I'm back

So, its been a while. A new year is dawning, and new things are coming. 2008 is gonna be a hectic year, at work and outside work. You probably won't be hearing much from me cos I'll be busy busy busy!

December is a month of weddings. Wait, correction, 3 weddings in one week! Ya I'm 2/3 of the way there and I'm like gonna explode from all that food already. So far its been pretty good food and unique dishes that I don't see everyday, so its not like I'm eating the same 'ol chinese dishes everytime. Even for shark's fin they manage to cook it in so many different ways, interesting huh?

Well, at Raymen and Kat's wedding just now there was this lady singing jazz. Her voice was absolutely fantastic OMG! You can find out more about her on this website: www.joannadong.com. She's quite young and she dances too, full time! And she performs at a local pub. It's not easy finding a good lounge/pub with great live music that you can sit there and enjoy all day. I used to hang out at Paulaner's but they changed singers and its not as good now. Then there is Wala Wala on thursday nights with Shirlyn, but it often gets too crowded to sit haha. And she's kinda punk rock, so once in a while is good, but not so often. Of course one of the best places I've been is Divine Wine at Parkview Square. That place is always the best lounge for a date, though its quite pricey and atas, must dress up to go in one!

I'm gonna have to pick up the pace of my workouts to stay fit during the wining and dining of this festive season. I also find that staying fit helps me handle lotsa stress and multi-tasking. I'm pretty much learning few different things at work and outside work at the same time, its kinda driving me crazy. Someone told me that I'm not as quick and smart as in Uni days anymore, so probably its tougher. I'm not so sure about that, I think I'm quicker and smarter than I can ever be, and definitely better than a fresh grad! Maybe a little rusty sometimes though.... haha

It's 2am and I should be sleeping and not thinking so much haha. I've not been sleeping so well lately and I think I know why, too much chinese tea! been drinking tea all night at weddings and even regular dinner outings too. It's probably too much caffeine than I am supposed to take argh. Well, I'll probably read the news or something then.

Its a pity how Bhutto got assassinated. Yesterday morning I saw her in the news rallying exposed on top of her car and I actually was wondering how she manages to stay safe, and if she's gonna get another attempt on her life. And by evening she's dead. Sigh, violence is everywhere these days. Yet people seem more worried about the sub-prime crisis.....
