The Apartment

I'm baaccckkkkkkk...... after a hiatus from blogging, am finally back and writing. No, i didn't go anywhere... except maybe out of my mind. 8P Day has turned into night and night into day as we rushed to finish our projects. I shan't even bother talking about the last few weeks. Not newsworthy enough for cyberspace. :P

Today our Big Boss took us to lunch at The Apartment. Food isn't all that but an alternative hang-out place nonetheless. It's nice to be able to sit down for a proper meal after so long. Over the last few weeks, lunch was either gobbled, very late (almost tea-time) or non-existent. Sigh....the perils of working in advertising. :P

Anyway, I ordered the English Lamb Curry with Ciabatta wherelse Misako had the Duck Pasta. Think the curry tasted more indian than english. :P Pasta was so-so... hardly taste the duck though we can see shredded pieces. Still... it's lunch by the boss so who's complaining? ;)

But..... i think the highlight was that AFTER lunch, we went over to Big Apple to buy doughnuts. Yayyyyyy...... yes..... we greedy buggers ogled and salivated over the glass counter top as we had to choose which flavours to take. Hey, when you buy only a dozen, it's not easy to decide. Not when you want EVERYTHING!! :P So, THIS is our final, albeit difficult, decision.
Oh RATS!!!! they've started eating without me.......... WOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII...... *dashes off*

Crash & burn

After a week of not having a PC to work on in the office, i finally got the CPU back today. At least now i can access the office network and not have to interrupt Misako to help me save files. :o/ But.... now my problem is.... all my data from the old comp is G.O.N.E!!! Aaaaarrrggghhhhh........ Don't tell me i should've backed up my files. :P I WAS trying to do that but the thing kept hanging. So i tried to clear my files and defragment so that i can save my data to an external disk. And THAT'S when the hard drive crashed. SIGH.....

Lucky Dad's around and can borrow his laptop for time being. Ugh.... goes to show how dependent i am on computers and technology. Spent the last few nights burning midnight oil to rework my files so that i won't lose my already disrupted momentum. Thank God, His saints and gold pavement polishers that Foodie Queen, Siryn & Mumbles have been there to keep me sane via IM while i pound away on the laptop. *hugs to all*

Ok.. so maybe not all the late nights were spent finishing work. ;P Took opportunity to catch up with FQ as well. Really miss her. There's juz so much i want to share with her that even the IMs and phonecalls aren't enough. :0( Cannot believe how time flies. We've been friends for 13 years.. in which most of them were spent apart on opposite ends of the world.

Right.. am going to stop whining now and try do the 'windfall' dance, then i can go visit her...
*waves hands in air, swings side to side, pom cak cak, pom cak cak.. money come, money come....*

Have a good weekend everyone!! ;oD
