Unexpected Nugget of Wisdom

Me: "Wah... How come your smile so big?"

Some Guy: "Smile need to work, don't smile also need to work. Then smile, lah! Don't stress yourself, be happy!"

Heh.

It's been a while...

since I wrote in this blog. Work's been keeping me busy, and, well, I guess there really wasn't all that much to write about. (Unless, of course, you've enjoyed reading my complaints about stupid bosses, inconsiderate colleagues, etc.).

Anyways, what've I been doing during this hiatus (yes, yes, besides work)?

Well, I ran into Rex, an old friend of mine from high school, whom I haven't seen for 7 years(!).

I was involved in a theatre production as Assistant Stage Manager.

I've also moved into my new apartment in just-off-the heart of town. This place is awesome. It's a four-storey walkup, and we live on the top floor. And now I have a balcony again! (I love balconies, obviously). And the rental on this place is surprisingly reasonable, too!

I've renewed my contract with the company, and gotten a pay raise. Still waiting to be converted to perm, though. But I think I'll stay with this company for a while yet. So many things to learn still.

I'm also helping Amanda out with her choir for the Vatican Expo. It's tiring and consumes most of my weekend, but fun.

And I think something that's unexpected, yet pleasant, might be happening in my life. I don't know whether or not it's for real yet, but I sure am hoping. ;)

Oooh, ooh, ooh! I almost forgot! Neil Gaiman was in Singapore and I got three books signed! I even shook his hand! Heh. Thanks Gill! Thanks Stef! :D

Gill and me actually gave him gifts (a shotglass, a bag of Famous Amos cookies and a postcard signed by the two of us and Tracy, this girl we met while queueing up for his autograph) to bring back. But he didn't mention us in his journal, though. :(
