I finally reached home ‘early’ today. 8.15pm.
I even got my armpit hair plucked!
Now, I yearn for a nap… which probably would take me away from consciousness for 4 hours, before I wake up in the middle of the night, blog, and sleep thereafter.
I am tired, thus, I am not sure what I am typing either.
Before that, just a quick one about work.
Monday - Nick picked me up to head for Sim Lim for lunch in the afternoon. Darn. It stormed and I was stuck for a while before he could send me back to the office.
Meeting in the afternoon, before another meeting took me away.
I was peeling an orange right after the first meeting, when I was called to another meeting.
I left my naked orange on a piece of paper, and ran into the conference room.
Boss needed a 3 minutes break cos he had a tummy upset, and I happily rescued my orange from solitude into the conference room, drawing curious stares from fellow colleagues.
I will have a wider circumference of work to cover hereforth, much of which I am pretty glad, cos I would be given more freedom in what I would like to have in the magazine and webby in time to come.
And.. I have quite an exciting idea up my sleeve, that would include my group of asswipe pals… so, yeap.
Anyway, by the time both meetings finished, it was already offwork time.
I met up with VampTreSS at Miss Clarity cafe, and was later joined by Max, Bibi, Boon, Brian, Joo Yau, Nick, Tan and uh, his Genie in a bottle Jeannie.
Something is happening in a bottle. Hurhurhur.
It was one of those lame meet-ups. I wonder why do they enjoy asking ‘Say, die die you have to do someone in the group, who would it be?’ . But I think I know the answer. Cos it is always cool to see your guy pals cringing when they slurred the answer to which guy in the group they would poke.
It was Battlefield 2 thereafter with Boon, Brian, and VampTreSS.
It wasn’t until 3 before we headed home.
A short phone call with SBB till 4 before I finally fell asleep… until I slurred through an entire conversation when he called again at 5 plus.
Tuesday.
Meeting with yet another sponsor in the afternoon. Aljunied.
Max called, and he was just nearby my office.
I met up with him and chatted about work stuff at Cafe Cartel, Raffles City.
Back to office to rush for another appointment in Suntec.
Boss drove us down.
And it lasted for blardy 3 hours!!!
Back to office when it was already 7pm.
Contemplated on having dinner with colleagues.
Raf’s birthday. She had spoke of how her boyfriend was sent offshore that very morning. Last minute.
She was nearby and we decided to meet up at Chijmes. She turned up only 25 minutes later though she was just across the road!!
But, birthday girl is queen, and the lovely generous one insisted on buying Reena(Feroz’ sister) and I dinner.
Dinner was a sumptuous meal of Spanish Tapas(ahem, Spanish), and we had a whale of a time catching up and goofing around the entire evening.
Though I was darn tired and had reminded SBB to remind me to head home by 9.30pm….. I didn’t head home until it was 1am.
Ahhh.. I can never keep to my schedule at all. 
We were hit on by this trio of US Marine Corps(who disrupted our cosy ladies’ night out. Argh!), AND Reena hit it off well with one of the others…. AND that led to the ladies adjourning to Insomnia(where there wasn’t ANY eye candy), AND that led to me heading home late despite leaving ‘early’.
Spoke to SBB till it was 3 before I took a 6-hours rest.
Wednesday.
Met up with Mr Anonymous Y at the Japanese restaurant SBB and I went to couple of weeks back.
The talk with Max, Danny and him, seemed to push me to put much things into actions.
Heard quite a scandalous rumour about a colleague of mine, which made me….. raise a brow high.
Went for an appointment thereafter, where I was made an offer I almost couldn’t refuse.
Reason being, it is the first time, I feel like being pursued and it was some sort of recognition.
I called up the asswipes, and in my usual panicky self, I went ‘I need to talk! Make yourself present now!!!’
VampTreSS made her way down since it was near her place, Nick joined slightly later, Roy and Max came later.
All listened to my senseless talks until all came to the conclusion that my headache wasn’t really a headache.
Max kindly offered to send me home and we ended up chatting for quite a while at the lobby’s bench.
You see.. when I am confused, my friends suffer.
Today. Thursday. I slept 5 and half hours.
I splurged on a cab to head down to Orchard to meet Bernice.
Meeting.
I like the sponsors. They were really nice. I saw a pair of bluetooth headphones which are darn sleek, darn pretty, darn cool.
You could use them to listen to your MP3players, you could use them whilst gaming, and when a phone call comes in, you could use it to answer your phone while you are gaming/listening to music!
But that would make me 330 bucks poorer.
I am still sane, and thus, didn’t splurge.
Lunch with Bernice. Took a bus back to office.
Barely stepped into office and the editor for the magazines asked me if I would be free to check out the costumes I wanted for my next shoot.
We walked to Peninsula. Up the entire building. Zilch.
Walked from there, to Beach Road. Ouch. In heels.
Good news. Costumes will be loaned to us FOC!
Went to Bras Brasah. Up the entire building.
Roamed around the shops to look for something the editor needs. Nothing.
Walked the way back from there to office. I got sunburnt.
Ouch.
When I finally thought I could sit down…..
I was called to join the editor for a press event. It was storming. We took brollies and braved the rain.
No cabs.
Call for a cab? We were put on hold for 253873624 hours and there was still no one attending to our calls.
At 5pm on a stormy evening, what do you expect?
Walk there, he suggested.
From there, to Oriental Hotel.
It wouldn’t normally be a problem for me, but when I was trying hard not to fall with shaky heels on wet ground….. those blisters on my feet weren’t helping. Ah well.
It was half past 7 when I finally took a train ride home.
I even managed to catch the last part of American Idol results show.
Cool.
I must be really tired.
I really am not talking sense!
