Happy Halloween in advance!
Although I don't really celebrate Halloween (except in Pet Society), I kinda like this festive occasion, 'cause of the dressing up part and going around for Trick or Treat. ^^
I'm going to meet the rest of my IBZ mates soon and won't be around till Sunday, so here's a Happy Halloween to my all dear folks first!

A little sense of panic currently...
It's only a few minutes to the next day. I'm preparing the things that I need for the course trip to KL and Malacca over the weekend. We are also going to have a BBQ and stayover at The Loft tomorrow night so that we can set off on time comes Saturday morning. Actually there isn't much to pack for a few-days trip. But I'm just afraid that I might forget something here and there.
Never mind, I shall get the things ready now and double check again when I'm setting off tomorrow evening.
Queenie, please remind your dear twin not to forget her handphone + charger, wallet with the right currency, and what else.... YES! The most important thing, PASSPORT! Okay I have to turn in now 'cause school starts at 0800h and Ms Eugenia only gives us a grace period of 10 minutes!

It's that time of the month, again!
I'm referring to pay day, otherwise would I have been so gleeful? I've hit the 4-digit! What's even surprising was that there was no CPF deduction for this month, so the supposedly to be deducted amount sort of came as a bonus. Haha. :D
And this whole thing is going in to my funds for the Japan study mission. Totally looking forward to it! Anyway, I have been watching the currency recently and the Yen seems to be going down at a steady rate! Hope it continues like this for a longer time. ^^
We selected our Sports & Wellness module today. I was a little late and by the time I reached the lecture theatre for the briefing, there were only 2 choices left - orienteering and volleyball. Aerobics, which I intended to join initially, is not available for our session, so I'm still pretty fine with volleyball.
After school, went to NAC for lunch with Amanda and accompanied her to work. Also visited Jacqueline 'cause I know it's damn boring to be working at OC. LOL. Happened to meet Emma and Hong too as they were reporting for the PM shift.
On the way home, I was thinking about the clothes that I have to bring for the study trip. Then I suddenly thought about the jacket from Sixties Inspired which I wanted to get a few months back. I should have struck fast! I hesitated for too long and there were no more stocks for the colour that I wanted! The jacket is rather thick, which is bound to be able to keep warm in colder climates. Moreover, it was selling at half-price at $29.90, which is damn worthy!
Alright, that's it for today. There's work tomorrow so I have to turn in now. Sweet dreams, dear folks!

Pandorum
Pandorum is a psychological condition resulting from extended periods of suspended animation (Wikipedia: the slowing of life processes by external means without termination). Symptoms include paranoia, hallucinations and uncontrolled shiverings.
Caught this movie with Martin, Lester, Audrey and Ling today. Honestly, I don't really like it. Throughout the whole movie the scenes were dark and gloomy, evoking ominous feelings and foreboding imminent doom. It is not just science fiction alone, this is a sci-fi thriller, where you can anticipate the appearances of cannibalistic creatures in most scenes.
What's worse was that, all of us entered the theatre with no clue about the story plot, except for me who managed to read up a little before that. So we don't even have any idea of what's in for us.
This is probably my worst experience at the cinema. Throughout the movie I was wishing for it to end quickly. The extreme air-con temperature in the cinema adds on to the misery too. It just felt like I was paying to get scared by those horror scenes, which I think were much scarier than the gory shows that I have watched. But at least, the ending was a pleasant one.
Anyway, the funny thing was that Martin actually bought cai-fan into the cinema! I was waiting for him to jolt up from his seat and spill his rice all over, hahaha.
School starts early tomorrow, I gotta turn in now!

The reluctance to let go...
Letting go of the things that I have been doing for the past 7 weeks. It's become a routine, a habit. And you know, routines are hard to change once you get used to it.
The consecutive working days, in order to receive a more gratifying paycheck on the next payday.
Those morning trips to Ya Kun for breakfast or brunch when we are supposed to be working already. Shh~
My daily roundabouts to the Candy Shop, the extent that I go to just to look at that pretty and fanciful candy. Just like how a little girl will be thrilled. :) Tomorrow onwards, I will only be able to drop by once or twice a week.
The many different ways that the Concierge team attempted to keep ourselves entertained at work. How I asked them to take the escalator instead of the lift in order to pass time and so that we have more time to... gossip. XD
How we plan our 'escape routes' in the event when the management appears.
How elated we can get when 'nam seng' is not working, and how we look forward to her knocking off.
Through these 7 weeks, I feel that I have become much more attached to my fellow working pals. They bring tremendous joy to my life at boring OC, seriously.
If any of the OC concierge is reading this, SEE YOU OVER THE FUTURE WEEKENDS!

Live Report from OC
Hey hey! I'm blogging from the Concierge counter. The live Jazz band is playing now and I really like the voice of the female singer. She just sang I'm Yours and it was superb! :) Actually, there's nothing much for us to do now since it's already after 10pm and most of the shops have pulled down their shutters.
Amanda came to look for me after she knocked off, since she's working nearby. Then we had soup together. And my goodness, I saw Mr. Eye-candy! Okay actually at that level it's expected 'cause he is just there all the time hahaha. Then Amanda asked if I talked to him, LOL. Just once, if it's even considered 'talking', which was when he asked me to help him with something. That's our only conversation.
Okay red alert now. Management staff on the move, gotta get back to our respective positions. Bye!

Loots = Cash out = Decreasing figures
But those numbers don't just go down unnecesarily. I have the habit of considering for quite some time before I get something. So I believe that I'm doing a worthy 'investment'. Think on the positive and economic side, I'm actually doing some good for the economy. Me alone may have little impact, but hey, I'm not the only person spending in the market right! :)
Got a few folders for organisation purposes when school starts.
Met up with Ling Ling after work for a while. Ling intended to get sneakers, but there were no more stocks for the right size. That pair of Converse sneakers is really nice, I like it too. Eventually things ended up with me getting a jacket instead. Had been eyeing it for some time and I happen to have a Converse voucher to utilise at the right time :D
There are 3 colours available and I think white is the nicest. On top of that, white reflects heat! So I can use it to double up as a protection from sun without getting too much of the heat. ^^
Looking forward to meeting the Pubors tomorrow!

It's Decided.
The 11 of us from IBZ are flying to Tokyo during end November. Hope that this will be a fun, fulfilling and enriching trip. :)
Just done with my research on airfares not long ago. I think it's cool that we get to decide which airline we prefer to take. JAL looks like a good choice haha.
Working tomorrow and I must not be late 'cause there is a meeting with the management! And tell me if I'm unlucky or not - I am one of the 10 mobile concierge selected to assist with some supposedly important event that will be attended by the spouses of high net worth people. Time is from 7 plus in the morning till noon time. BUT THEN,
do tai-tais even wake up as early as 7am just to have breakfast accompanied by a fashion show?

Happy Children's Day
Not just to all the children of the world, but also to grown-ups who are still 'a child at heart'! :D
Also, happy birthday to Gerald as well! Guess he must be very busy that he even forgot about his birthday! All the people in China are rejoicing on this day, how lucky you are... HAHA.
I'm currently in the midst of completing a 'project', hopefully it will be a success! I'm already feeling restless just thinking about how I will execute my plans. ^^
Be back soon!
