I'm a qualified driver now. But not much excitement, I still prefer to be driven around but of course now I'm no longer stuck with the position of backseat driver. :) I can be a driver driver. Hmm lotsa things over the past few days, so let's blog about it before my boss comes back. heh.

Lemme see what have I done since Friday?
Oh watched a forgetable movie called Clouds In My Coffee. In my opinion if the technicalities of the show was ironed out I might be able to give a less biased account of it. Well basically you could hear the voice but the mouth wasn't moving at the same time, unsynchronised. No good. Sometimes you hear the audio totally going off because the entire cinema's silent. Hmm. Bad. And worse was I had a misconception about the show, that totally upset the entire quotient. Basically I thought it was a Hong Kong production in Mandarin, Nope it's an English production by our own local producers. So when they were showing the movie, the beginning seemed like a cheesy romancing Singapore trailer. my gosh. well only after it was running for 10mins and me wondering when the hell is the trailer going to end before my friend kindly enlightened me, that was the show. Sigh. And the rest.. Hmmm kinda jerky story doesn't flow very gracefully as it should have. But if you ask me the storyline was pretty realistic, of course I have read some critics slamming it, well that's their job. Just that whether do you get to see it. It is realistic because it shows a facet of a burgeoning minority(that i don't think you can really call them a minority anymore) so before you go n watch Best Bet and claim that it's super duper realistic because the nation's hobby is ToTo & 4-D betting, not every singaporean does that, so there. Well I don't for one. Never really liked the idea of gambling on such stuff. Maybe someday, but for now maybe I'm just not ready to be a full fledged typical Singaporean.

Subsequently to Centro for the Frontal Labs re:NEW gig. Local DJs spinning, give your monies worth. Well can't say they were really fantastic, in my opinion anyway, but the support that they got, not enough is all I can say. I've heard foreign DJs playing such grooves and getting the same kind response on the dance floor, but there were a bigger number of them on the dance floor, sigh. And after that did we realise that that was the last night Centro was open. Hmm.

And came Saturday
Woke up rushed to TP for esther's graduation ceremony. Such a cutie my darling, finally and seeing so many other familiar faces graduating. Glad for them. Next year will be no more familiar faces. Not that I'd know anyone in that batch anyway. Well moving on with life I say. Then went to my gramps place for dinner and then they went to my uncles place to take a look at his new house while I rushed down to town to meet the rest for Catwoman. My mother was complaining about me watching so many movies lately. Well there are a lot of shows that are being released recently. And I've got movie kakis now!! Which is good. Anyway Catwoman was more like a demure purr than a catty meow. Go watch if you've got nothing better to do, which with so many other movie options I guess you won't really have time to watch that. Went home to sleep early that night, no clubbing. Shiok.

Sunday came and passed, had Muthu's Curry for lunch at the new branch the new swanky high class branch. Hmm interesting the interior details were well thought out. Interesting. Then visited my cousin who's in hospital and then went to Sheng Shiong at Taman Jurong. Hoho. Within 10mins the entire trolley was full, if me and my brother ever win a shopping spree. Hoho. That's it. Went home slacked then went to my other gramps place, celebrated his birthday with durians. Yummy. Haven't eaten them for a long time. Not that I don't get to, just don't feel like eating that at times.

Monday
Got recalled back to the office by my boss, only returned in the evening due to some training of the hotel staff, if i didn't buy the milk i wouldn't have even bothered to come back. Well wanted to put down the laptop too, coz me is going to teh gym. I hate gyms. I really do. Well used the rowing machines and some sliding machine and the cycling machine. Wanted to use the free weights but when you see all the really big sized guys using and taking up all the space, suddenly i feel very out of place. Sigh. Then on to driving lesson, made some mistakes learnt from them and went back home to sleep.

Tuesday
Took half day, Twelve came to fetch me on his motorbike and then we went to CMPB coz he had to submit some documents and then we finally went to Jurong East Swimming Complex. Swam 2 laps then i gave up my arms and thighs were aching like crazy!!! Goodness me. Then fell asleep. Lol so shiok. Enjoy life. Hehehe. Then driving lesson again.

Wednesday
The fateful day I passed my driving. Wasn't feeling so nervous as compared to the previous try which was good. Made me realise that i really need to keep my emotions in check and be neutral so that I don't get overly nervous. Then after that met Amos & WingK for dinner in town, had Marche, and because I passed my driving I had to treat them. Well it was a cause for celebration anyway.

Later I shall go to Bugis and get a bag from POA. Saw it yesterday, damnit now I'm super duper tempted to buy it or rather I've alreadie decided to buy it. But the thing is I dunno how much does it cost. Hur, if it's below $40 I'll get it. Anything above well.... We'll see about it. Then yest went to LV too, took a look at their wallets, feel like getting one for my birthday. Well Amos commented that it's not very me, but to me it's like a coming of age kinda thing for me. A swanky status symbol. Lol. Full of nonsense me, well couldn't find that really suit my needs, I'm quite picky about wallets so haha. We'll see maybe I'll go take a look at it again or something. The salesperson that served me was kinda cute. ok.. above average looks lar, but just very tall. Actually on Monday after I finished my driving lesson I saw a cute guy, sorry bout the ooh-ing and ahh-ing, just appreciating guys more nowadays? Everyone's suspecting my sexuality. Haha. Hey babes are attractive wad, nice long slender legs turns my head, well dressed babes and girls who ooze sass and attitude. Plus they've alreadie said there are more pretty girls in singapore than handsome guys. Anyway just appreciating pretty things that's all. :)
Back to work, got a huge problem that I need to solve otherwise I'll die trying.
