Went back to work today after X'mas, my department seems to be a little quieter than before, as some of the staffs are clearing their leave from this week till next year. Shiok man!~
Monsoon season now, keep raining and raining...Today was raining the whole day, till now still raining. Too much of it sucks. Well, think I have to learnt to prioritize things efficiently...

Back from Penang, and I can really say it was a very fruitful trip.
Meeting the rest of the teammate at 9pm on last Friday at school. Captain forgot the time, and luckily he managed to make it just in time to board the bus. When we were in our first bus, all of us were very excited about the trip already. Later part when we reach the custom, we board the other bus which is 26-seater, from the custom. The coach is really consider comfortable, rather spacious. we started off out journey from the second coach at around 10pm. The lighting of the coach was dim, and we sleep our way till the first rest point where we had our supper.Subsequently, we only had toilet break in between. Sleeping at the bus is quite hard, though it is consider comfortable.Finally, we reach our hotel, Copthorne Orchid, at about 8 plus in the morning. When we reach there, saw many teams from singapore were already there. We waited at the lobby while waiting to check in. As rooms are not available yet, we were only given 2 rooms to be shared among 26 of us.
At half past 12, we were all ready for the first day of our mission. Our first heats was mens' open. We managed to get 1st and get into semi-finals. As for mens' junior, we got 2nd and was ORIGINALLY get into finals since there is not semi-finals.
The next day, due to unforeseen circumstances, we were to go for rapid charge race. Fill with some unsatisfaction, all the guys row their hearts out and we got back our place to finals. As for the results of mens' juniors and mens' open, we got 4th and 1st respectively.
These 2 days of races were very happening. We did experienced something from it.
As day 2 of the trip was Irvin's birthday, we 'celebrated' his day there.hahaha...and we know that he had reveiced his best present, which is the gold cookie. Overall, the trip was memorable.
A dragon boat team worth remembering, Team Hak.

Finally week 8, 42 more working days, meaning "Thank god it's alredady half way!", or " Half way only?", depends on how you think it. Fall sick again, and viruses was spreading it on and on. This got to stop.
As usual, these period of time during attachment is rather boring, no life. Most of the time is only go work, go home and go training.
Today went home taking train. While walking to take another bus, there is this teenage girl, with a booklet on her hand and a pen I guess(if i didn't see wrongly), was coming towards me while I was walking and listening to songs. I thought she's doing some survey and I kind of trying to avoid it. But She seems to be talking something was I have to take of my ear piece to figure out what she wants. It turn out to be her asking what bus goes to Jurong point. This is the rough conversation between us:
She: Sorry, may I know what bus goes to Jurong Point? Don't faint ahz(we were at bedok interchange)
Me: (I was thinking of what bus)
She: You working? You looking young..
Me: (say restlessly) Having attachment
She: Are you rushing to go home?
Me:(just give a smile i think, cannot really remember), I think you can approach the working kiosk over there...
She: thank you
The whole conversation should be something like that, cannot remember much.But really find her weird, if she really wants to know what bus to take, will she ask about if I am working and rushing home all those things? Well, I still think she is a surveyot, using other ways to tricking people in answering their question.
Took some nice postcards at work place, it's really plain and simple, yet quite plansant-looking.
Few more days, kind of excited about it.

Wednessay went to work, a fire alarm sounded at 10.05am and followed by the P.A system asking the people to stay calm and wait for further instruction. What's going on?
The whole building is having the fire drill exercise. Long time didn't have this kind od exercise already, quite fun actually. No one is allowed to take lift down, and my work place is at level 21, meaning got to walk down all the way to level 1...hahahaa...everybody was like walking and chatting on the stairway, some was sms-ing (like me), some was like having their breakfast and some even wore the jacket down, under happens to be a hot day. After that, all assesble at the church, take attendance and go back. It took me 11 minutes to walk from level 21 to level 1. hahahaa...Even though the weather was quite hot, I kind of enjoy it as to skip work. Had lunch at Raffles Place, didn't know that there is actually is hawker centre there, and the food is quite cheap.
Today after work went for training. Today is also 'shaving' day after the training session ends. Some of the guys is shaving their hair botak!! The process is quite fun, seeing them having their hair being shave.. but not all are willing to do so. Tomorrow Friday again, and today is the end of November!! Finally get to see my November timesheet being fully filled up and also quite hard up now...
