Zak's Bday

It was Zak's 21st birthday a few weeks back. Seeing her celebrate her 21st birthday with so many friends around had made me feel kind of jealous lol. My 21st birthday sucked big time. I was on exchange in Germany, and on the 29th, J and I had flew in from Barcelona at 6am and crashed the whole afternoon. We got up around late evening, just in time to watch the Euro cup final where Germany lost to Spain. >.< No one was in any mood to celebrate.

Saddest birthday of my life. :(((

Okay enough emo thoughts. =P

So Zak turned 21, and dear Siew (her roomie) put in a lot effort making this a wonderful surprise 21st bday party for her with an attendance of 30+ crossers! We do so love our captains. (:

Here's mei and I.. still waiting for others to come

So the plan was for us to wait for Zak to come.. and we line up in two rows to welcome her. Pass her a single rose, and take a polaroid with her..

Everyone getting ready

Mei so pretty here.

Fooling around.. ;)

Short Update!

I realise I have a lot of short updates hahah. Nowadays I'm just too busy to bother uploading hundreds of photos and comment about everything and anything.

So today is the Sunday before CNY week. I'm so excited.. It'll be a super long weekend (yay), and I'll have super a lot of work to do. Super likely I'll have to stay till quite late to finish up reports for the high vol of work. =X

Anyways, In preparation of CNY week, I'm going to go for a haircut later (hope it's not too horrible) and i painted my nails LIGHT BLUE (i kid you not). It's super not ME hahahha but it's something new to try.. Sarah bought the nail polish back for me from Korea. *beams* It was really sweet of her.. I totally did not expect it. I mean I know I gave her a farewell gift and all, but I did that for MANY of my juniors and they didn't get gifts for me =P And the fact that Sarah bothered with a gift back for me is really heartwarming. =D

I digress.

I was talking about CNY.

The trouble is.. I keep thinking I don't have clothes!! When in actual fact I do have quite a few new clothes. =XX And I just ordered another 3 things... heh.

2 weeks of work

Today marks the end of 2 weeks of work.

How has it been??

Well.. The first few days were SUPER overwhelming. So many new systems to familiarise and processes to learn. Then soon, I was given one task here, one task there. But mostly I needed to learn everything asap.(it didn't help that I needed to request for each system to be set up individually which can take awhile.. esp when there's a bug)

And then Thursday (yesterday), I was supposed to do everything on my own. And I think I had like 5 major screwups. It was sucha horrible day. I did something, which took quite awhile, then I forgot to save... fml. Had to re-do everything again. Then I had to recall 2 emails, and thus received like 100+ notifications. seriously.. I AM INFAMOUS NOW. -sighs-

But u know the saying, tmr will be a better day. And so today was better than yesterday. I mean seriously... It could only go up from there.. That was an all-time low.

Anyway, I've been so tired after work, I have major backlog of entries to clear.

For my own reference:

• Tricia's farewell
• Jb Seafood
• Lunch w GC
• Playnation
• December part iii
