Tml will be having a farewell dinner with the bosses and PM, den after that maybe some night activities..maybe drop by the this dunno wat bar open by a singaporean... he gave me his namecard today... Den on saturday, after packing up everything, plan to go Peter's for our last lunch in Chengdu.. den after that is straight away to the airport and of course, home sweet home... or maybe supper first? LoL.

Oh ya... and of course today is also a very important day for 2 of my dearest friends.... Mingfang and Doris... Happy 21st birthday gals! Wanna to sms u all, but my hp card no value liao.... So juz now went to top up again, but discover i left hp at home instead....haha...sorry... Will try to send my wishes tonight ya before 12am.

Today was quite a special day also... as maybe it's not everyday u'll get this kind of chance.... Well, ytd Minister Mah Bow Tan came to visit the company ytd right.... so got chance to chat and took photos together... And surprisingly, ytd night our DGM call and told us that he invited us for lunch tml... Yep, so the 4 of us went on his invitation to this beautiful hotel. Why only 4 of us? Cos the other 6 of them was away on trips. But 4 of them had juz reached home from Jiuzaigou. Ya, so we went for the lunch, and very sorry, we kinda of a little late too... The Minister was giving a speech when we reached.

Anway, we took our seats... and oh ya.. all of us was separated... There were only 4 tables and the seats was already assigned, and me and xueshan was at another table, while the rest was at another one. So all time we juz chat with people that we dunno.. but can see that they were all some successful people. Xueshan and I was sitting too far away from each other also... Got to chat with some of them and also took their namecards... All very high positions people... In fact, those at our table were almost all directors... such as Old Chang Kee, EtonHouse, NUS, IE Singapore etc... After that, Minister Mah came to sit and eat with us also... Very chim ah, their conversation... mostly on issues such as current affairs, investments, business stuffs.... Haha... listen until i also blur... But it's quite a good experience ah... to be able to meet and interact with these successful people... and also the buffet lunch was really good...

So after the lunch came back to office... Oh ya, juz took back reports and overall grading by my OIC... the results was not bad ah...*grinz* So as more things are getting done and settled, it's nearer to our take off also le...

So, I'll see all of u all in Singapore for all our meetings, gatherings, chalets and bday celebrations.

♥ Coming to end of OPP...

Minna... dou desu ka?... Genki?
Anyway, time really flies ah.....and very very soon, it's my turn to fly too.. Haha, fly back to u all ya... Got miss me this 5 months? I hope so, gee...

Right, so it's juz another 3 days more.... dun really feel much but having fun yet tiring preparing for the return trip... And also the flight details have also been confirm as follows:

Date/Time: 26th August'2006, 9.05pm
Flight No: MI933
Venue: Singapore Changi Airport, Terminal 2

Yep, so that's my return flight details. Seems like so little time to do som many things. Especially, the break that my OIC promise us is not valid anymore. Ya, remember the last post, i mention about my one week break before our departure? Ya, that's it. I'm now currently still in office.

Sianzz

What's more sianz, is that only two of us are back to work. Yep, the two of us in this TPAS project. Everyone broke their promises, everyone went back their word. Not even a day off is given for us to at least to pack out stuffs. We have to work till Friday, and we'r flying off on Saturday.Chengdu bosses is like that. Singapore development team is worse. Dunno wat they doing over there. Keep giving us endless problems and rubbish. Saiyaku ne...
Ya... so only me and Paul here.... 4 of them went on a trip to Jiuzaigou, another 4 of them i think still sleeping at home or already went out shopping...

Sianzz

So this week really very tiring... both physically and mentally. Only have time to pack up late at night... and the next morning can't wake up... Shagged. I juz hope there's no more problems coming... Sick and fed up of it. But at least, managed to rush out the elogs and OPP report and submit to OIC. Now left the presentation ppt...

Right, gonna continue packing up tonight... before that, maybe need go withdraw some cash and need to shop for a baggage... cos realised ytd that my other baggage is not enough... Lol.

This week very packed, seems like next week also super pack ah. Besides got the de-briefing and final presentation of this attachement to the teachers, there's also meeting sessions with the school directors and the next OPP batch of students. Oh ya, next tues also got class chalet and have about 4 birthday celebrations/chalets to go to.... Phew.. all in the same week...

Haizzz...
Really tired. And the other day was chatting with a friend and realised that I've been working non-stop for 2 semesters, and that's 1 year. Come to think of it, it's true ah. After the previous semester exams ended, I immediately started my 3-weeks OPP training, and the 4th week onwards I'm already here in Chengdu till now which is coming to the end of the semester.
And now when i'm back, still have all these presentations and stuffs to busy with...

Haizz...

Whatever... anyway, still gonna hurry up and settle this project first... Oh ya, tml our Minister for National Development of Singapore, Mah Bow Tan, is coming. Dunno what he coming chengdu for... maybe to visit the singapore company here or wat bah...

Alright, that's all for now... Guess this is the last blog entry I posting from Chengdu, China. By the time I update here, I should already be in Singapore. So see u all soon in Singapore! Jyaa ne.

Take care!

♥ Happy National Day!

Happy Birthday Singapore!
Otanjoubi Omedetou.
And Happy Holiday to everyone as well!
Enjoying this break?

Heh, me no hol. Right in office doing the same thing everyday, facing the same coding and programs. Sad....

Oh, sorry, got to go for some mini company celebration now... Update u all later ya...

* BRB*

Back. Celebration ended.

Yep, it's a national day/birthday celebration.
Alex & Leon presented a ppt on Singapore in form of a quiz on Singapore. The theme song sang by the Gong shijia also quite nice ya. Haha, really had fun sharing with the locals.
After which is the birthday celebration of the August babies. Yep, each month, there'll be a birthday celebration for the colleagues having birthday during the month.

Oh, BRB again.

Back. Juz went to help clear the stuffs after the celebration. Where was I? Oh ya, so after the celebration, also had a little welcome/introduction of the new 7 colleagues to SCS. Haha, so these are some little events going ard in our company.

Right, back to topic, it's national day ya... NDP starting already. Mummy and cousins should be already at the national stadium le ah... Hope they enjoy the parade. I wanna go too! Haha, nvm, few of us plan to watch the NDP online later.... Haha, having dinner and watching the ndp together should be fun as well. Oh ya, will be attending a NDP dinner this friday too. It's a annual event organised by dunno wat chengdu-singapore association. So it's a big gathering for all Singaporeans in Chengdu. Seems fun ya...

Oh well, after the Singapore birthday, the next big thing will be the end of our OPP. Yep, counting down 17 days to take off, 7 days to end of working, 10 days left to go shopping... Haha.
But still, got so much things to prepare as well. Our attachement elogs, OPP report and ppt, our OPP videos, thank-you gifts for our superiors and company and etc... Hiazz.... But anyway, really enjoying this busy yet fun preparation.

Oh ya, many of u all muz have known about my camera being pickpocket le ah... Thanks for all ur concern, I'm fine now ya.... Juz abit sad.... Anyway, wat happened was that when shopping, i discover the bag I was carrying all the time was being zip open. The next thing was that my precious Canon Ixus 60 was stolen. Haizz.... I'm so careless....

Anyway, I've already make a police report on this pickpocket case. Quite an experience ya, going to the local polcie station, making a report, taking my statement, riding on a police van. But the officer in the first police station was so fierce at first, almost make me cry that time... But after knowing I'm a singaporean, he became much nicer. -_-"

Already gonna over it, can only blame myself for this loss. Feel even more gulity when my parents and brother did not scold me but comforted me instead. Was really angry with the pickpocket at first, but nvm, it's tiring to hate someone... So too bad, I can't take pics as I like of my last month here in Chengdu le...

Whatever it is, I'm still enjoyed my stay here. Even if work is got on my nerves , even if I'm sick of the food and life here, even if I'm missing so many important events in Singapore, even if I'm not able to do many things over here or even if I encountered so many sad things and bad people here, it's still a worthy experience.

All right, for the last 20 mins of work for today, let me juz take another look at the stupid sql codings I've been trying to edit for 2 days... Haizz... Take care everyone, see u all soon!
*hugs*
Ok, left 15 mins le...
Jyaa ne
