Yeah... Yeah I Know...

During my department retreat... one of the team building exercises involved us making exquisite cars with only lego pieces and pretend to sell it to the mass market and the winner was the one whose car was the most popular among buyers... the catch was the more lego pieces u used the more costly the car would be... apart from that u'd have to have an effective promo campaign to make pple wanna buy your car... the best in creative minds came together to build cars that could fly... cars that could float on water... even some tat were just normal looking cars but could teleport to your destination (as displayed during its marketing segment)... w o w... me? i made a robot ;>
I take retreats very seriously...

Was reading the TODAY paper on my way to work yesterday and i came across this ad which was highlighting the Singapore National Barista Championships being held this Thurs to Sat... the moment i saw it my eye just could not leave tat page... a sense of nostalgia swept across my veins... my pal jon and i always talked about how we would win if there ever was such a competition like this in Singapore... but of course when we said all these we were still working in Bakerzin and in our prime... haven't touched a canista of milk nor a steam noozle for close to 2 yrs now... don't know whether i still got it... and it's sad to know... the one thing i was probably "very good" at... and i'm not there... ;<

Tues and Wed were one of the most boring days of my career... As i was away at a department retreat on Monday... Coming back to office on Tues i was eager to clear my backlog of e-mails and files... the moment i step into the office i turn on my computer... but it seems to be conducting the longest virus check ever in the history of virus checks... call the tech guys to check it out... the news isn't good... my com playing punk with me... they take her away to operate... news filters down to me that I can only see her on Wed afternoon... that's like a good 1.5 days without a com... how am i gonna get any work done? tech guys seemed unsympathetic to my plight... probably coz they really just don't care... alrite then... tried to utilise myself to the furthest (coffee sir?) till i got my com back... but when it came back... it left me even more depressed... the whole system crash... everything was gone... my files... my templates... my bosses' memos... and even the important things... my videos... my music... ALL GONE! It's like she doesn't recognise me anymore... the warm touch of my fingers on her soft keyboard... a gentle hand on her mouse... AHHH! *throws keyboard back*... YOU'RE NOT THE SAME!... i dun know you anymore...

Caught TMNT the other day and i was rather disappointed with it actually... maybe its coz of the high expectations of the show seeing that i grew up watching this and transformers (which i hope won't be disappointing)... in any case... the turtles look much slimmer now compared to the cartoon version... plus the foot soldiers aka the foot clan look rather robotic now... oh well... times have passed since the days of shredder... and my memory of raphael was of a sarcastic turtle dude... but he seems to be "more angry" now... oh well... looking forward to transformers... shrek 3 and simpsons then!

Haven't played football in quite a while recently... especially last sat when i had to work so i missed training... was really looking forward to today and playing with my mates at work... skies were a lil dark but we still went ahead anyway... my my... when we were playing it was as if we were in Manchester... strong gutsy winds and tiny raindrops kept on coming at us... so much so for once i wasn't sweating... but my game came to a premature end when i treaded over the ball and did my ankle in... very painful indeed... walking is a challenge itself... arghs... means i'm gonna miss training on Sat again... bummer...

Lastly to my friend Adrian: It's not that I don't want to tag your board... i'll do it when i'm at home but i'm hardly online when at home... when i blog its at work... and being where i am... there are a lot of sites that i cannot visit... fortunately blogs aren't one of them... BUT dun know why... ur tagboard doesn't seem to load here... oh yeah... neither do your pics so i can't enjoy them... will periodically check them out when i'm at home k? haha...

*nobody understands*
