Saturday Evening : Steamboat Party \:D/ on Thursday, December 21st, 2006

So we rushed over to Yuen Buffet Restaurant right after Comic Fiesta ‘07. For once, I do know the way there and did not misdirect anyone into taking wrong turns and what not. On the way there, I was mentally preparing my friends into one of the major attraction of the restaurant we were headed to which I dubbed “The Barbarous Chicken Wings War”

And I was NOT exaggerating when I relate to them how chaotic it can be when the regular roast chicken wing made its way to the buffet table full with vultures hungry people/people not really hungry but is in for the fun of fighting over food anyway. Well, those in the car doesn’t quite believe me anyway; until the moment when we were seated down at the table by the windows which is conveniently next to the chicken wings table hohoo ( Labbit. KS and Joanne were already seated — and I happily noted that a brave soul had got us the roasted chicken wings <3 ).

Oh well, the first timer of the buffet restaurant did managed to see exactly how true are my action-horror tale is soon after. Repeatedly, say .. in a span of many 20 minutes in between. For the ENTIRE. NIGHT. >:D

Anyway, we were not even an hour into tucking in the food there when the lights all went out. It took a while to comprehend that yes, it is true. We’re having a black-out in a full-house crowded STEAMBOAT restaurant. And we were all stuck in a rather badly ventilated floor with FIRE on our table and hot soup to be served. But it won’t really matter how good were the soup, cuz simply, as the night rolled on, we won’t even be able to see our food!

That was my first experience of having steamboat in an area filled with sweating people eating steamboat and it doesn’t help that both Hanie and I were dressed rather thickly because we foresaw that it will be bloody cold throughout the whole Comic Fiesta stint T__T Yes, we never did foresee something like THIS though.

Pathethique on Wednesday, December 20th, 2006

I spent the past 2 hours or so having fun designing a new layout for into.the.mirror. Just don’t ask me why I choose to do so at times as such ( yanno, deadline and me severely lacking sleep and all.. ) I finished tweaking and fooling around Photoshop, and is very HAPPY for once that I managed to pull a design I actually like. I’d been on a layout-block since … FOREVER it seemed.

Feeling all happy and fuzzy from a job well done, I paused to realised that:

I DO NOT KNOW how to code them seamless layout I used to do back in pitas-days for wordpress !1!one!! O_o NOESSSSSSSS~~~!!!!

There’s no escaping this time. I need to really really need to learn how to build a WP theme from scratch ;_;

 

 

お誕生日おめでとう! on Friday, December 15th, 2006

Holy crap I can’t seem to stop yawning for more than 3 minutes apart since lunch T____T

First off, a shout-out to the psychic twin : Her Bawang-ness !

HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!

Anyway, back to the reason for super un-productivity on my side, I think the lunch was waaaaaaay too heavy and all brain processes are shutting down one by one since then. My colleagues brought me to TGIF for food ( their treat, OMGYEEY ). I don’t quite dare to know what’s the total of the bill since there were 15 of us there. Largest lunch-gathering since our company lunch ( since the grand total of people working here is around 18 :P ) I didn’t quite dare to enquire how much was the damage done to everyone’s respective wallet/purses. But they’d got their revenge when they got the staff to SING ARGHHHHH THE SHAME WTF! ( and yeah right like I’ll ever gonna stand on a chair. Never did that since Primary School and definitely not starting anytime soon >=P )

And many million thanks to those who’d been texting me greetings since yesterday ( and once more, thank you Helen and Masaki for the early presents =D =DD )

I better head back to work now since I have class in an hour and not planning to come back here tomorrow ( Comic Fiesta is this weekend :D ) Will be picking up Ping Pong and her sis after class and will rush off to meet up with the FFXII-obsessed whiterabbit and Ling for dinner. Busy busy busyyy O_o;

 

 

会社に帰りちゃった〜 「 am back in the office ORZ 」

I managed to be the first person in class today. I rushed up my class around 6:20p.m. ( since class starts at 6:15 ) When I reached the class, I saw my sensei sitting alone in her seat. For some strange reason, I paused and did a double take.

“Why is the class empty?”

“Did I get the time wrong??”

“She’s MY sensei right??? *doubting my own eyes*”

This is the level of my own tardiness to class. For once when I got in earlier than anyone else, I thought it was a great big cosmic mistake. Hur hur hur. I ended up chatting with her ( in very very bad Nihongo of course :P It’s a wonder how she can understand me ) until the other students rushed in, gave me A LOOK and apologised profusely ( I can so see it in their eyes : “OMG even *she* gets in already. I’m reallllly late ohshit ohshit ohhshittttt”. Chatting with my sensei I realised once more that that I’m pretty much grammar AND particles impaired lolz.

Okay okay enough randomness, back to work ;__;

PS : Helen and Masaki-kun ! I’d got your parcels! THANK YOU SO SO SO SO SO MUCH <3 <3 <333 I was really surprised and touched ;A; Thanks a gazillion again!
