Oh, making time for things nowadays is really such a big deal... Everybody's so busy with everything... Just had a tel conference with my gal friends.. haa! Persis' brilliant idea... Cos everybody juz cannot settle on one date to have our christmas dinner... As usual, when gals talk, we talk altogether... so the call lasted for quite long, plus there were 6 of us on the line.. haa.. In the end, our christmas dinner is set to be this sunday! Crazy rite, celebrate christmas on 3rd Dec... haa... But tat's really juz the next available time we all have in common!
Me? Busy with work (forever), studies planning, youth fellowship, young adult cell group, christmas musical (weekends sold to the church!)... And Kyo said tat gerald might "threaten" that i cannot perform if i dun go for the 14th nite rehearsal. Well, she didn't really use the word "threaten" but it sounded as intimidating to me anyway. story goes, my company ADD will be on the 14th night and i am the involved committee and i need to be there. So wat am i supposed to do? tell my hr manager i'm not going for the ADD, put her on a spot and apply to be irresponsible because of religion - or skip final musical rehearsal and offend gerald? i chose to be responsible to work la actually, i think its an impt testimony. the ADD is like the actual thing already, the final rehearsal is the prob the most impt of all rehearsals, but it's still a rehearsal not an actual thing.. Now tat kyo say gerald might have a prob, it sets me thinking that i do really want to perform after all. Not for the fame or fun (i dun think there's either anyway), but cos i've have given up so much of my time for the regular rehearsals, burning all my sundays and some weekdays, give up dating time, offend my family by rejecting family time to do this dancing rehearsal.. though i was really quite sian-ed and did reject the idea that i have to dance on top of just singing, but now at this point in time, i think i wanna continue to finish the 'show'. to him, it may be a professional show, but it me, its being part of a great tool tat God has in mind to reach to others - and i want to bless and be blessed too. So may God's mercy be shown.
So billy and i finally manged to spend some time together, like a dating couple... when in groups, i wld classify our time together as friend bonding time.. when like on one-on-one outings, tat's classified as dating time! hee... ya, which both are important but have to be balanced. for the past weeks, we only met for quick lunch if he's nearby my office, or supper, even on weekends we are either going out together with big groups or families... I treasure time spend with fellowship pple as well, so i dun mind the big groups, but i find that it's really hard to make time for just the 2 of us. Finally this week's work not too tight for either of us. So movies on tues and juz now (wed) had a nice dinner date... hee.. we watched Happy Feet! Very nice!
Not that I really stand by this, but it's just so funny!! I like that billy is dinosaur - unlike the typicals! HAA!

Arghh... $70 just to make new passport... which last only for 5 years, instead of 10... ARGHHH!!!!
Anyway, went just now during lunch time, and i so duper exceeded my lunch hours lor... haa... there was 157 pple in queeue, and while waiting i took light sleeping naps.. hee! Like i always do.. the ART of being able to sleep anytime anywhere is one good skill. I napped for like 45 mins, still not my turn... Den got this family of a mother, grandma, and 2 young daughters came and sit beside me. The mother non-stop talking and talking very loudly one lor... but at the same time, keep telling her little gal to "better shut up your mouth!", "I beat u ah, u better shut up your mouth!", "I call police ah, u better shut up your mouth!" Firstly, "Shut up your mouth" sounds very rude for a mom to use to her daughter, i feel. And i wonder whether the english is even correct... 2ndly, the thing about using police to scare the kids is juz a total bad idea - children should feel like police are your friends man, and be scared of the bad guys not police.. 3rdly, the mother herself is so noisy yet she expects her splitted-out-chromosome be quiet.. 4thly (ya, i got lots of comments on this mother).. that little gal is so cute and not noisy arh, she was just doing cute things like smiling to herself, talking to her mom(not overly loudly), etc and the mother keep spoiling her mood... :S
Anyway, finally got my new passport!! They needed right thrumb print, den i show the counter lady my right thrumb condition - which is badly scarred by ezcema, she say nvm can try... den she try 2 times, she say "ya, let's use left thrumb print instead". haa... den she show my both left and right prints on her computer - the right one is really bad man, cannot see one... If one day i get murdered huh... my left hand better be ard, later my body become unrecognizable.

spend some time going thru some of my hundreds of unread mails today... currently still got 471 more to go thru... anyway, found many funny emails and videos.. haa.. got check out my youtube videos posted below or not? Anyways, thanks to mostly nic, mich, and kat... I enjoyed quite some funny jokes today.. haa... ok, post 2 of them for dear readers:
1) MBA AND ENGINEER WENT CAMPING:
A MBA and an Engineer go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fall asleep. Some hours later, the Engineer wakes his MBA friend up and asked "Look up at the sky and tell me what you see.
The MBA replies, "I see millions of stars."
The Engineer asks "What does that tell you?"
The MBA ponders for a minute: Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
Astrologically speaking, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.
Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three.
Theologically speaking, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant.
Meteorologically speaking, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
What does it tell you asked the MBA?
The Engineer friend kept silent for a moment, and then said.
My friend. Practically speaking, someone has stolen our tent".
2) CHINESE NAMES - ANNIE WAN (ANYONE)
Caller : Hello, can I speak to Annie Wan?
Operator : Yes, you can speak to me.
Caller: No, I want to speak to Annie Wan!
Operator: You are talking to someone! Who is this?
Caller: I'm Sam Wan. And I need to talk to Annie Wan! It's urgent.
Operator: I know you are someone and you want to talk to anyone! But what's this urgent matter about?
Caller: Well... just tell my sister Annie Wan that our brother Noel Wan was involved in an accident. Noel Wan got injured and now Noel Wan is being sent to the hospital. Right now, Avery Wan is on his way to the hospital.
Operator: Look if no one was injured and no one was sent to the hospital, then the accident isn't an urgent matter! You may find this hilarious but I don't have time for this!
Caller: You are so rude! Who are you?
Operator: I'm Saw Lee.
Caller: Yes! You should be sorry. Now give me your name!!
