Was woken up in the middle of my sleep by his second call at 2AM in the morning (7AM in NZ). Set my mind at ease upon hearing his voice.
I really wish i could be there for u.
~*~
Am feeling quite bad now. Argh! How could i have missed it?
I missed BB's call from NZ. That very min when i realised he tried calling me but to no avail, i was really angry with myself. Why didn't i pick up the call? Was waiting for him to call me back the second time but he didnt. He's probably too tired and went to bed first without trying to call me again.
Went down to People's Park Complex early this morning to make payment for my air ticket. Yeah! Yeah! Finally settled the tickets. It wasn't cheap but the best i've found so far.
Almost 3 weeks since he's away. In 5 weeks time, will be my long- awaited and his long- deserved holidays.
Am spending lotsa quality time with the colleagues these days since BB is not in spore. And i think this is also the only time whereby i can spend my weekends with the colleagues without any considerations. Really enjoyed the time spent with them all. Each dinner session, weekends outing are so enjoyable which keeps me looking foward to wanting more & more of it.

I haven't had so much fun in awhile. Had dinner at Bongo bar while watching some tribal performances. Quite nice ambience at Bongo bar. Bought tickets and started the night safari journey. After the tram ride around night safari. One of my fav group photo of that night. Some final night safari shots before we left the zoo for supper at upper thomson.
The students first visit to night safari. Most of ours (the locals) as well.
These are the ppl who made my mundane working life so exciting. As usual we took lotsa photos but none of the animal photos turns out gd cos it was too dark. But still we took loads of photos.
Tribal Performances
Adorable soft toys. . . monkey. monkey.
That's how tall brian is. We even saw one indian guy who is taller than him by one head. He couldn't believe it himself when he saw that. Oh man. All this tall guys are only making me look shorter.

Din know that the prata at upper thomson were so nice, esp the cheese pratas and paper prata with ice-cream. Craving for it now.

Yellow - Coldplay
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah they were all yellow,
I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called yellow
So then I took my turn
Oh all the things I've done
And it was all yellow
Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know you know I love you so
You know I love you so
I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh all the things you do
Cause you were all yellow
I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh what a thing to do
And it was all yellow
Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know for you i bleed myself dry
For you i bleed myself dry
Its true look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine
look at the stars look how they shine for you

Girls afternoon outing to bugis on sat. Alot of our conversation still revolves around him now that he is in overseas. Like how they keep saying that ming will finish up the leftover food if he were here, cos the food we ordered is just nice for 6 person. And that the guys should help me set up the mahjong table and stuffs since ming wasn't ard. So funny. Going out with them makes me think and miss ming even more cos it brought up memories of the times we spent tog with the close friends. The close friends have been very nice by asking me out on weekends so that i wont feel bored and lonely without ming ard. Really appreciate that.
The first time we get tog without the guys ard. haha. Accompanied LS to sim lim square to get hard disk followed by shopping at bugis street.
LS was teaching me suduko while waiting for SG to come. My first attempt. Now i understand why ppl says suduko is addictive. Cos i'm addicted to it as well. haha.
Me, Lisze and Sharon
The close friends picked me up at queenstown for dinner at ABC market. It's also the first time the 5 of us ever went out tog without ming ard.
Pictures taken to tempt the one in NZ. haha.

Attended emily's customary wedding on sat and wedding dinner on mon. Second wedding i've been to for this year, both of which are my colleagues. And my second experience as jie mei as well.
Lotsa fun on both days, a big group of jie meis, 10 of us. haha. From primary sch friends, sec school friends, colleagues to brother's gf.
Polaroid picture of 6 of the jie meis tog with the bride's niece.
With Jennifer at One Fullerton
Bride's nephew. So cute.
Wedding dinner on mon was held at Merchant Court. The wedding was quite grand and the bride really look into every small little detail. Must have took alot of time and effort to prepare it.
After all the guests left, a few of us went up with the couple to their suite to look at the photos and to make them drink the leftovers red wine from the banquet. haha. Left at ard 12 plus and cabbed home with the colleagues.
With the bride
Feeling really happy for the both of them. Especially because i was very much involved in their wedding, from wedding fittings, ROM, customary wedding to the wedding dinner. Happy and envious.

Innovationation - play, touch, learn
Was last min asked to go down to innovationation exhibition & seminar on behalf of my boss. Very very reluctant at first but ended up enjoying it lots esp the exhibition part. The exhibition is really cool, showcasing yesterday's and tomorrow's technology and how technology evolved over the years.
Exhibition starts from today till 15 Oct @ expo.
Thinking of going down again on sat. Was rushing to finish the exhibition cos the seminar was starting soon. Seminar was very boring cos it wasnt related to our industry.
'The next world war will be fought over water'
I like this picture the best. So futuristic. 
Seminar ended at 4 plus, din have enough time to go back to the office so met up with colleagues for dinner at JP before gg for my long-overdue facial.
