Long Time No See

Whoa, better blog now before I start to get busy again! Well, it depends. In the next few weeks, depending on fate, I'll either become extremely busy or I'll just sit back, relax and play some ps3 games I stole from my brother.

This month, we managed to catch up with a lot of our old friends and family. Some of whom we haven't seen in ages.

Last Tuesday, we had dinner with Alicia and Roseanna at the legendary GuoFu. Yeah, it's like everyone's favourite :P Both of them look happier and more relaxed now. But, of course, everyone who left GE indeed looked better than ever :P Working there with all the cowboys can be so unbearable :P

Anyways! On Friday the same week, we went for another round of steamboat, buffet this time at Joaquim. Met up with another bunch of ex-colleagues from GE! Well, some are still working there :P There are about twelve of us, everyone turned up so I was kinda glad. Half expected some of them not to turn up, but everyone did! (not in order): freaker, Sally, Chan Yee, Wan Yee, Chee Yong, Merwin, Naing, Amy, Mai, Mai's hubby Willy, Tony and his very tall girlfriend which I forgot her name.

Before we parted

Everyone look different now. More mature I'd say. Or old? I don't know. But everyone's still very chatty so it's a really good sign :) Sometimes it's not easy to maintain these kinda friendships. Everyone has a dream to pursue and that naturally causes people to drift apart.

So, I'm really happy to see everyone. Hopefully we can continue this for many more years to come!

The following day, me and Sally flew in to KL to attend my brother's ROM. It's a mass ROM for the 10.10.10 couples. On the morning of the flight, Sally suffered a nasty tummy ache and ended up eating very-drowsy-pills that made her sleep almost the whole day. She slept like a baby during the flight, in my brother's car and at home. Zzzzz...

We had dinner in a restaurant and celebrated my dad's birthday at home afterwards. We ate too much as usual, so no big deal. Too bad my elder brother isn't around to celebrate this event together :P So the very least we could do is to upload the photo to Facebook and tag him to the cake. Taa daa!

Ok, that's everyone minus my elder brother

The next day was the 10.10.10 mass ROM thingy. A staggering 285 couples. Luckily my brother was .. erm, no.25? But yeah, it was pretty fast so there's no hassle at all.

We flew back on Monday and now it's all back to work again. Sigh... And all of a sudden, I have this urge to go for a holiday in Phuket again. The beach, the spa :o Yes, we're definitely going back there!

Ok, that's it.
