Saturday

Dinner was good *beams*.

Waited a while for the bus and was running late but managed to finish cooking and assemblying food in 30 minutes. Dad helped a lot with the washing up but this round was unmessy so it was minimal cleaning up. The salmon was great both grilled and sashimi-ed. Am happy now. My house is clean, sake was scrumptious, desserts was good so give me some coffee and I'll be ready to roll up somewhere and sleep and get fat ^__^

Meet EK and CKL for lunch after class tomorrow. Should be fun.

... there is a monster ...
... imprisoned within my blood ...






Forgot to visit Zara while at Taka but other than that, tonite was a hoot.

Something happened earlier this evening to make kitten a very happy and evil one. Very excited about the party later as well as the Christmas party coming up. Invited the year o nes too, I like them. Looking forward to time with friends and even as KL had grudgingly admitted, he was excited about the Christmas party too as we would all be seeing old friends again. It's old age I tell you. You learn who are your real friends an d you learn about the preciousness of the time you have together. Hope to see Shawn, Jan and all too.

Watched the Returner with El. Got the times a bit mixed up but I was rather tired and hungry until we got food down the hatch. Tried to find some Int egra collectables but no luck. It's all Seras and even Maxwell but no Walter, no Integra and no Alucard *incredulous* Am trying to get El to watch the Cat Returns with me when it starts. Everyone quick help by sending sublimal messages her way.

So far Meia is OK with Tues. What about the rest? Send me a SMS or an email so I'll book tickets?

SF, El is good for Thurs. Time and place? Or shall we discuss again nearer that date?

Anyway, the Returner is GREAT!!! It's anime in film form. Takeshiro i s gorgeous *drool* (sorry, think I like the quirky Jap look even more than the beautiful Korean look - like both but if I had to choose, I prefer quirky) and the storyline is good. Not great coz some parts were a bit cheesy but good. Not Oscar material but worth the ticket price and the VCD price when it comes out on VCD. The theme is so anime. Aliens, consipracy, time travel and lots of good shooting scenes. Lots of humour too. GO WATCH ... damn good. I won't say more to spoil the surprise but the quality is there. Am aiming to catch more Jap and Korean and US films too. This is a great month for movies no?

Kitten happy will sleep now. Lots to do in a while. Cleaning up and shopping must be done before 4. Reminder to self: to check if I have volume 2 of Kategesu.

AND ... *drumroll* it's my oniichan's wedding today. So s*rew work, I'm going to drop by and party. I don't know a single person there but ah well *shrugs*

The secretaries here are really nice to me. Even got invited to join them for lunch tomorrow but I really DON'T want to eat in the court's cafeteria. I need to pop by soon and say hi to shah tho'. And a certain idiot is trying to be funny again. Snakes and tomatoes.

On retrospect, I realised I've broken quite a few dress code rules today.

First I'm wearing high boots. Then I've got ear cuffs and finally, a dog tag. The only thing that fits my professional profile is my court bag.

Blahhh ... as I declared today. I feel lousy mondo mondo having slept at 4 am for the last 2 nites.

Tuesday

No. 111 and No. 139 made me laugh, very hard.

Good grief, there's been so little to laugh over these last few weeks but the firm's given me a bookvoucher for my belated birthday gift with a little cheery card and Bel's phone call yesterday helped muchoes although now I'm worried whether there's puke over any of my precious manga heaped at the foot of my bed.

Monday

I'm feverish, I'm dizzy and I puke up everything and anything I try to eat or drink. Even water is flushed out like no one's business.

Finished some work before the pucking craze started so I took a cab home. Ate just two mouthfuls of soup at home but it's now all over my bedroom floor. My dad is telling me it's okay but I feel bad about not being able to get to the bathroom in time. I think I'll just hang a pail around my neck.

Blllahhh ... kitten not feeling well at all

Sunday

Today is the annual Singapore duck race where we float rubber ducks on the river to see which rubber duckie is going to win his owner 1 million bucks.

Two days from now is Meta's birthday - Happy birthday in advance in case I forget to wish ya on Tuesday.

Thank you for the kind wishes Jo-chan. Don't fuss about the ... it's the last thing on my aching head now. My fault actually, I did work until 3 yesterday and woke up this morning at 8 to continue before going to class. Not surprisingly, my throat is now skratchy as hell and head feels like it should best be cut off. It's been a while since I worked like this. Or maybe I'm getting old :P

My Jap class has embarked on term 2. Times flies. A bit tired of tel ling passport robbery story over and over again. Maybe I sho uld have done what one partner suggested when I first returned from Bangkok. Print the story out on cards and pass them around to avoid having to retell it ... sheessh. I wish people would u nderstand that things like this are really not fond memories yo u want to relive again.

Jap class has gotten bigger. Nice to see my old classmates again but the new ones are rather quiet except for one hyperactive and rather annoying 15 year old. Maybe it's the headache but when she kept buzzing around trying to be cute in front of the class by making cutesy noises like squeals which took a turn for the worse was when she suddenly decided she would be "friendly" by shooting me endless questions at brea k time (she sat opposite me today, I know this is bitchy extreme but I pity her classmates who were sitting with her) who I was, what was the drink I was having (calpis water by the way), what calpis water is, how old I am, what I do ... As in reality I w a nted to craddle my head in my lap and snooze and I don't give out personal info unless I know you, it took all my nerves to bite my tongue and not lash at her. Another reason why my mood is absolutely foul today is the possibility some relative from Ho ng Kong will arrive and my planned dinner tonite at Henry Park will have to be cancelled so my parents can "show him around". As far as I'm con cerned, it's still bearable if the guy gets on well with you or if he hasn't got other company but this old co up le, my mum's eldery cousins have a son and daughter in law - apparently some hotshot engineer in Singapore and it's getting irritating how each time they come down to Singapore, they insist on being with my family instead of their own. They are not horri ble people but it's a pain trying to accomodate people you have nothing in common with on a regular basis. I don't see why my dad has to take care of the old man when he has a son to do so. Sheesh ... I think my grandma forgot what day is today but it d oesn't help things. Sigh ... I know I'm being selfish but I'm just so miffed. Alright, I'm being bratty but November 2002 has really been horrible monthus.

Ah screw it, I shall plan for my sis' birthday party next week as well as my upcoming annua l Christmas party for my classmates. Revenge against November 2002 is best executed by making sure I live December up ^___^

I'm really not having a very good November this year. Doesn't help I'm stuck in the office over the weekend clearing work really ... I'm not happy I'm growing older without having fun at it this year. So excuse me while I go write some bad fanfic or draw some bad bad fanart as soon as I dig myself out of these files ... I've been extremely bitchy and mean spirited this month, I a pologise.

Hmm, and hearing Vampire Hunter D and Hellsing back to back is not good for your mental health ... I can't get D's and Integra's theme song out of my head. Ooohh ... well D's Dracula's son ... what if *winks*

I'm nuts I know.

Saturday

Hmmm, my neighbour recovered my stolen sneakers. Someone in the neighbourhood is nicking shoes, my neighbour's included. He found his shoes abandoned at the staircase and finding 2 other pairs familiar, brought them to my house asking if they were mine.

He's a nice one but there is sure one weirdo wondering around the neighbourhood.

Ugh ... I know the answer. You know the burning question to Hellsing fans as to what Integra's answer to Alucard at the end of episode 13 was? HINT. Look at the scene of the eyes reflected in Alucard's glasses at the end of the closing song. Tell me whose eyes are those and whether they resemble a certain vampire's eyes.

OH GOODNESS GRACIOUS!!!

Jo-chan, Kaori-chan are we set for Tues since you both are ok? Aine-chan? Meia-chan?

The pointless topics of the day: 3 staircases to Mount Sophia and the insane kitten feels her age.

Mount Sophia means a lot to me. For those not in the known, Mount Sophia is a quiet neighbourhood at the end of Orchard Road - the shopping mecca in Singapore. It is a middle class kinda place and houses my old primary (elementary) school, the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, the President's Instana and I have to go there fortnightly for my piano lessons. MGS used to be there too. At one time in my life I was going there 4 times a week. Twice for music O level lessons at MGS and twice for piano lessons. Ooo I digress ... anyhow the point of the story is there are 3 beautiful staircases leading up to Mount Sophia in addition to the only road to that place.

(1) Staircase by the left of the old Picturehouse building
(2) Staircase by the right of Cathay building
(3) Staircase out of Plaza Singapura.

Staircase 3 is a flight of stairs about 3 storeys high. I use it the most often and it's an uneven flight of stairs going up a gentle slope beside a church and a pair of abandoned colonial bungalows. There is lots of follage providing fresh air and great shade. The chirping of insects and birds as one walks on the shady path makes one feel as if as one has entered a rainforest. I once saw squirrels there. It is such a beautiful unspoilt place.

Staircase 2 is now closed. I don't remember it much but my dad only brought me to class by that staircase once or twice and this was when I was much younger. It's the wildest of the 3 and is carries an air of a secret path way into some hidden English castle as compared to staircase 3 since the plants at staircase 3 are clearly tropical plants. I wonder why they sealed that staircase off. I'm always hoping they change their mind and reopen that path but I've been waiting for the last 13 years without any luck. It's mysterious and if you see a weirdo peeping at the gates to look at the beautiful wild growth of flora, no prizes for guessing who it is.

Staircase 3 is a steep 7 storey climb beside (2). Lots of foilage. Lots of squirrels and offers great view of the area. As it is so high and the stairs are much to wide for a comfortable climb for the average Asian (it's like climbing 2 stair steps at a go so it's a stretch for smaller people), it is not used often. Great place to sit down and watch the skyline while you read a book. My favorite staircase of the lot. I used to study for my law exams there - I know, most normal people go to the library. Once dropped a hat over the railing and ended up climbing over to retrieve it. I can't imagine how I did it then coz the other side of the railing is a slippery and very steep slope. It's amazing what a stupid teenager can do for a hat. I'm amazed I didn't slip and break my neck considering I'm hardly good at anything sporty. But it's lovely and oh so quiet. Great air too thanks to the abundance of greenery.

That concludes my pointless story on staircases and nature.

I feel old. Oniichan just invited me to his wedding yesterday. I'm happy for him but I feel so old ... All my friends are getting married like Singaporeans rushing to a sale *shudders*. Being born at the end of the year, I always fobbled myself with the consolation that they were more mature and I was not old ... but now someone clearly younger is getting married (yes my oniichan is younger than me despite the fact he calls me imoto-chan) O_o;;

Naiii, I feel ancient and tommorow I gain a year *freaks out and pulls hair* ... I think I'll go mope somewhere.

November this year is a bad year. I'm going to also have to reinstate Clow to sole hogging of this blog. Idiot hates sharing the limelight. I blame all the lousy things that happened this month on him :P

Clow - That's not fair.
Kit - :P

There's this a**hole who's trying to fob all his work on me and LW. We are not amused.

LW says she has not seen me so pissed off. This was the same idiot who tried to frame me for his lack of work and tried to bluff me that the boss was upset with my work and who insisted I solve the problem on the file, while I was at the Thai immigration trying to get papers to come home.

Kindly direct all evil thoughts at the bugg*r.

Miss you too. Resurfacing anytime soon? Zhin's already back with a vegence *grins*. Ahh Wingy where art thou?

Haven't social blogged for the longest of times. Apologies to all. But I've read all the blogs today. Obviously I'm NOT working but I'm NOT in the mood. I wonder if I can hibernate until December comes - Christmas is my favorite time of the year ... oh the parties ^__^ to have with friends. My neighbours are in for it again.

Hope you get your accomodation ... oh dear ...

And before I forget, Mura your post reference is RR001460675SG, expect to reach Costa Rica roughly 10 days from now.

Anyhow, as I told El last night November 2002 has been a nightmare. Not to mention I'll be one more year nearer the grave come the end of the month ... bahhh ... Was late for dinner with El last nite due to Murphy's law - as usual - which states if you're trying to get somewhere on time, there's no use making allowance for delay coz inevitably the delay that will happen will outstrip that allowance. Mum also uncharacteristically left food on the dinner table on which I left a book and ughhh ... let's say disaster. For all you who know how I treasure prints beyond my own life ... let's say a minor artery must have burst last nite. On discussion with El I realised something strange. Everytime I try to introduce a new character with Clow on the blog, bad bad bad things happen ... it's like if the magician has to share the limelight, I get jinxed. HELP ... I'm running outta pictures to satisfy the "obssessive maniac". El says it's like having an evil world domination kinda magician possess your blog. GULP ... at least I didn't get started on Fuji or Fuuma *sly digs at a certain babe in Costa Rica*

El was a sweetie. She gave my dad her stamp collection. The old man's so happy I think he won't snap outta it for some time. Thank you El, my dad really needed cheering up from the stress my gran's illness has been giving him.

- RAMBLINGS -

Trooped off to Holland V for drinks and a bite. The amount of police guarding the place is amazing. I hear from my pal in Sdyney that security is way tight ... bloody terrorists. I miss my friend *kicks thief who stole passport* ... The hilarious thing was (and without being religiously and racially incorrect), there was a huge number of Caucasians at a Middle Eastern Lebanese restuarant more so than any other restuarant along Lorong Mam (the hippiest part of Holland V) ... I wonder if that was some form precaution really *nervous laughter*

Sat down at Tangos and had 2 strawberry magaritas and fried cham in cranberry sauce. Yum to both even if I'm basically baiting for a heart attack. I love Tangos. Was telling El that Tangos used to be this house of this old lady who would sit at the vendera and fan herself. I had to pass her house everyday to go to school (yes this was when I was 13 to 16 and secondary school attendance was compulsory) and she would ALWAYS be sitting there fanning herself while surveying the whole street regally. Which was kinda cool coz even then Holland V was this happening joint altho I wondered if it got a bit noisy for her at nite. I wonder what happened to her. It was the last day of school when I saw that the house was being boarded up for renovations. I thought she was merely redecorating but then it turned out that Tangos had bought the place. When I went to law school, that was one of the joints Bel and me liked. It's a lovely open aired pub. I used to love Wah la wah la more but that was before it became this dark smoky pub that it is now. But Tangos is absolutely causal and cool - they just have to bring back the jazz music that they are so good at. Pop just lacks the finase for pubs in general.

But the drinks. Tangos is a place whose cocktails do not taste well, alcoholic - the strawberry mag went down smoothly and tasted strongly of strawberries but come 5 minutes into the drink, you really feel the high. And it clears in about 30 minutes without leaving you pissed. That is what I think alcohol should be about. Then again it's dangerous for those who don't drink much and are not in the know since they might order 2 drinks without realising the impact. Ah well but it was "shiok" as hell last nite.

I'm seriously addicted to Hellsing. I just have to like the most obscure bish there is around, as well as one of the most obscure and hard to get animes/manga don't I *groan* The funny thing was, after bugging poor El on Hellsing in between Saiyuki discussions, I turned to go and saw a coffin on the TV of the adjourning pub. They were showing WWF and I suppose the undertaker was up next. This prompted laughter from El and me and a AU where Alucard was a wrestler, Integra his manager, Seras his adoring fan and Walter the guy who serves refreshments ^___^ *dies laughing*

Before I forget all that transpired last nite (and for my private use):

1. Alucard as a wrestler on WWF *chokes*

2. Integra pregnant with Alucard's child - we're still working on how it happened coz Integra isn't exactly going to let Alucard into bed without a fight for her virginity

3 months into pregnancy (well before that the shinigami would have threatened to murder his old war buddy for touching his mistress), in the middle of the nite -

Integra *pouting*
Alucard: What? You've been sulking the whole nite.
Walter *knitting baby boots*: Integra sama?

Integra: I ...
Alucard: Yes?
Integra: Want to eat sardines covered with strawberry sauce ...
Alucard: WHAT???

Walter: I'll get the sardines, you go get the strawberry sauce.
Alucard: Why?
Integra *starts bawling her eyes out uncontrollably*
Alucard: Ok, ok I'll go ... *makes a remark outside room about unstable pregnant Hellsing women*

~ if you think Integra is scary, think her with pregnancy mood swings ~

6 months later in the operating room -

Integra: ALUCARD YOU B*STARD I'M GOING TO SHOOT YOU INTO A MILLION PIECES AND FEED THEM TO THE STRAY CATS *while squeezing her husband's hand and trying to give birth*
Alucard: O_o;; *trying not to pass out from the pain Integra is inflicting on his hand*

Doctor: *tries to ignore ruckus as he encourages the mother to be to PUSH*
Integra: PUSH MY ASS, I'M GOING TO KILL THIS NO GOOD VAMPIRE FIRST ... AHHHH ...

Outside the operating theatre, Pip and Seras sweatdrop as they swear they'll be very careful themselves to avoid Alucard's and Integra's circumstance.

3. Alucard breaks Integar outta jail. We find the reincarnation of Mina Harker, unfortunately, we find Jon Harker as well. Alucard is one unhappy vampire.

4. And there's still the post on El's blog and mine as to the last Hellsing doujins we came up with.

But the one about Integra getting pregnant is funny and is all I can think about now except we have 2 problems - one, how to get the deed done. Two, is having a vampire's baby going to transform her. According to Blade the Vampire Hunter, having a vampire's baby transforms the mother - I suppose it's due to the umbilical cord. Integra would rip Alucard's throat if he transformed her thru pregnancy ... not that it won't be funny to watch. And can you imagine the dsyfunctionality of whoever has the woeful misfortune to be their kid. How normal can you get if you're 7/8 English, 1/2 Transv, 1/2 human, 1/2 vampire and your mum's and dad's idea of a family quarrel involves silver bullets and hell hounds? Not to mention poor Walter will have to watch his fingers when the baby's teething ...

*rolls over and dies laughing*

~ For the bored, I've escaped to sleep in the guest bed coz my sheep has invaded mine :P

I'm fine Ange, Mura and Reins, it's just that yesterday was a day that if something could go wrong, it did.

No worries, I gripe but I'll live thru it *keeps fingers crossed*

Tuesday

This is a special day. Not in a good way.

This is one of those days I rather forget. I'm going to bathe and sleep and hope tomorrow can't get too much more worse than today.

Ahhh ... they fixed my computer over the weekend and have removed some of my applications ... grrr ... but *drumroll* the good thing is they've accidentally installed a DVD player and forgot to remove it (the DVD must be a part of the upgrading programme but I know IS is supposed to remove it after the upgrading).

*GLOATS*

WARNING TO ALL SNAPE FANS. PLEASE DO NOT GO TO COS PREPARING TO DROOL OVER SNAPE. HE GETS SO LITTLE TIME IT AIN'T FUNNY, EVEN FOR A NON SNAPE FAN. IT'S A GREAT MOVIE BUT THERE IS A REASON IT IS CALLED HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS AS OPPOSED TO SNAPE THE POTIONS PROFESSOR AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS. You may get better luck in POA.

And can someone do something about Tom's haircut?

My turn to gush about Harry Potter.

Gosh the show is good. And the amazing thing is I got seats on the 2nd nite it was opened. Booked mine thru the net the nite before and was amazed there were so many seats left. For a moment I was worried for the box office takings but when I arrived to collect my tickets, the cinema stopped all ticket sales. The next 3 shows including the one I had tickets to had been sold out.

*scratches head* Can't figure why I got tickets so easily. Even my clients were amazed I got tickets just the nite before, and the best row in the house too.

Loved the show altho my butt was aching at the end of it. It was great but I'm looking forward to POA. That's my favorite book in the series. SS was a bit too "easy" reading and I didn't really like COS other than the fact Tom Riddle was in it. Was a little tad disappointed that a lot of scenes in the book were cut out but if they didn't, it might have been a 5 hour show.

Want to watch it again tho'. Meia, Aine, Kaori and Jo?

Eline, you've got mail. Sorry about yesterday, turned off the phone for 2 days for peace and quiet and missed a lot of SMSs. SF, there's a character book for the series I'm looking out for you now (hint hint - I can't put the name coz selfishly, if I do so, I can't guarantee someone will whip it up first) out at Kino. Drop me a line if you're keen and I'll call Serene to reserve a copy if there is still one.

Jap test tomorrow ... UGH!!!

Heh heh ... almost everyone has heard the robbery story but wants it straight from the kitten's mouth - maybe I should print it on a piece of paper and pass it out coz I'm getting a little tired of telling it - it's not something I enjoyed afterall.

Watching movie tonite ... happy. Had to cancel leave for last 2 days - not happy but working with QL is fun - very senior lawyer and very nice (tho' Anto said his temper a few years back was a sight to behold). Lots of work for his files tho' - yikes!!!

SF thanks *huggles* I still haven't heard from my bro on your books, will drop in on him tomorrow ^__^

You got Dark? I got Dark and Daisuke lying on the grass. But Krad is good *drools*

Story? Uhm I think in DN Angel 6, Daisuke got sucked into the time dimension thru the crystal leaving a worried Dark, a disturbed Satoshi and a freaked out Daisuke mum. Then for some reason - either to rescue Daisuke or just part of his work as a world notorious art thief, Dark has to go steal a painting but manages to wander into the twin's room with the stolen booty. Somehow dropping the picture and setting its magic off, Dark accidentally takes Rika with him as he falls into the picture world - apparently the picture leads to the world where Daisuke, with a touch of brainwash, is painting (did I get the name right? It's the twin with the short hair that Dark likes). Dark manages to find Daisuke and break the spell but they are surrounded by guards and Daisuke "sacrifices" himself again to transport Dark and Rika back into reality. This selfless act either breaks the "spell" cast by the time weaver or touches her so much she releases Daisuke while tearing like crazy - it seems she has a major crush on either Dark or one of Daisuke's ancestors. I need the Chinese translation ...

It then ends off with Daisuke back in the present finding to his horror that he is to play the princess in the school play with Satoshi as Dark and that the princess is supposed to be in love with Dark. Rika meanwhile has a flashback as to how she lost and recovered her teddy - Daisuke was the one who rescued it for her but she thought it was someone else coz in her view, Daisuke "can't" be that atheletic. Something to the effect a loose football knocked her teddy into a haunted mansion and the boy who failed to catch the ball thus causing the accident - a very obviously younger Daisuke went back to retrieve it for her in the mid of the nite ala the style of another extremely talented primary schooler - Suoh from Clamp Detectives.

So I think ...

Congrats you *throws confetti* - Let's party something next week so I can also hand you your doujin ... eh, shall we begin to set up shop. That forwarding addy is very tempting lah ... how how *plots to get more Hellsing doujin to cheer self up*

Thanks to everyone - (huggles to Mura, Ange, Kim, Erijka and more as soon as I social blog read a bit more) I'm better. Upset but better. Colleagues and even clients whom I had to call up to settle some work seeing I'm NOT in Sydney were very nice about it - alas it is as I said, you have to before you're 30, (i) get mugged (ii) lose your passport in a foreign city that doesn't speak English (iii) bungee jump.

Planning to go to Korea to skii in December if possible. Does falling off a slope count as (iii)? The Thai police were not helpful. Fortunately we met a Thai lawyer who helped and the hotel staff were wonderful.

The good thing? Harry Potter tickets for tomorrow nite courtesy of my friends and I've caught wind of a surprise early birthday party EK is throwing for me tomorrow nite before the show. Gosh, that girl is such an angel. She has a bad rep in law school for being horrid but as far as I'm concerned she's just loud - got her heart fixed in the correct place tho'.

I can't wait for Harry Potter. Meia, Aine and Ade the earlier plan was to watch HP when I returned from Aus but since that's popped ... want to watch it some weekday evening next weekend (I plan to watch HP at least twice).

And as corny as this sounds, watch your wallet gals ... and carry a big stick to hit any idiot who tries to take it.

Well, for those who care, I'm back. I was in Bangkok and was supposed to fly to Sydney to visit my best friend for our birthdays. Sigh ... but then the robbery happened. The loss of SGD 400 is stiff but it's about the cost of a flight to Bangkok and I did enjoy the first nite there altho not the awful air. CK, BJ and EK were wonderful friends. They gave me all their Singapore dollars and bought me out and cheered me up quite a bit. Altho they had to return to Singapore first, they would take turns to call up to make sure I'm fine.

The hotel staff was also wonderful. Bayan Tree's services are not cheap but they are wonderful. Thai airlines was also either sympathetic or my firm was really persuasive but I got a ride home on a flight for which the waiting list had been closed. The firm was nice, really nice. I mean they extended my stay in the Bayan Tree - coz until 3 hours before the flight I was told there were no avaliable flights back to Singapore - at USD150 a nite it costs, and after I got the necessary papers - coz I needed to rush to the airport (the coach for yesterday's flight that they finally got me on had left by the time I came back from immigration), arranged a limo to drive me to the airport. The firm also got one of the senior partners, an ambassodar to call the Singaporean embassy to speed up my application (altho no one realised the embassy had moved so I was a little close to tears when I saw a "we've moved" sign outside where the embassy was supposed to be but fortunately they left a map) and with enuff string pulling, I'm home.

I'm home, where the air is fresh, the people know what they're doing, the police and immigration officers are helpful and one doesn't really get mugged on the open street.

I'm really miserable about Sydney's trip but grateful to everyone. Trying to get some work cleared (there is this one file I've handed over to this one senior is now trying to push the buck to me but blaming it on the boss I suspect he's a double crossing idiot so I came back to see the boss in the person and my hunch was right) before I go to Boon Lay to see if I can get any books. Mura I'll collect your stuff and send on. To the WRBB, El and Ange thanks I'm fine *hugs* I'll social blog later when I can look back on this and laugh. In the meanwhile, I'll try to go get my passport, EK is suggesting a Korean trip next month to cheer me up - she's a great gal. My family is also coddlying me quite a bit, I guess I haven't had so much pampering from friends and family in some time *sigh* I'll call Bel and let her know I'm home.

*a friendly announcement about the whereabouts of kit*

Just spoke to our lovely blogger, vacationing in Bangkok atm and I found out that she's not really having a goodtime. It turns out she got mugged in Bangkok (the thief cut up her bag away and ran off with it), leaving poor Kit sans wallet and PASSPORT 0_0

Kit's doing fine but basically, she can't leave Thailand until her mom manages to pass her credentials to the S'porean embassy so Kit can be processed home. Poor thing.... she commented that the local police are not being very helpful *fury* Kit's okay with the loss of her wallet but she's felling very NOT GOOD about not being able to go to Sydney as planned. Aaghh! Send your well-wishes & prayers to Kit tonite, kay?

*end announcement*

Public Annoucement Service:

Oh yeah I forgot. Please check the papers and local entertainment mags for kino 20% discount vouchers. As El has also posted, Minekura is releasing an artbook in December (well according to my friend at kino, the scheduled release is winter so we deduce Decemeber is a good time).

Also, there's a limited edition for Loveless 2 and DN Angel 7. Talks about calendars in ZS Dec, but "rumours" only ... For all the above yummy info, thank Serene. *huggles*

I want Harry Potter and Artemis Fowl. Great Jap movie "The Returner" will be released on 14 Nov, the same day as Harry Potter and cool Korean film "Lost Memories" to be released on the 7th of Nov. Matrix Reload and Lord of the Rings II also coming up, looks like Christmas will be bombared with blockbusters galore.

And I have a Harry Potter Chambers of Secret A3 poster *grins*

Mmm ... Ash tree anyone?

... there is a monster ...
... imprisoned within my blood ...






Have been sick at home for the last few days, crawling out only for Jap class and a short stint of work yesterday so am relatively happy that health allowed me to join parents for a leisurely breakfast at HV before hoping to clear a good amount of my in-tray today. I feel so lonely in the office on a public holiday *frowns*. Met an old neighbour so it was nice chatting to her. I sometimes wonder what happen to people I've lost touch with ... met some long lost friends at St. Andrew's yesterday. One of them is a DJ now and I wonder what it's like to be one. Hee hee ... Reins this is a really good idea. And no, you draw quite well so what's this about only "once in a while". Hmmm, but if one draws often, is there a problem with space on server?

Ahhh, must finish work and go home to pack. My house is almost neat. All kinda packed except for two piles of books and clothes at the foot of my bed. Ask El for the state of my house before packing ^ ^;; anyhow, it isn't really neat coz everything is just stuffed into any cupboard I can find in the house but mum only said she wanted the place to "look" clean. This is a prime example of obeying the letter of the law but not its spirit.

Hmm, thinking of abandoning this blog to start something new ... *ponders* Oh well, SF got a message for you in the comments box to the post below ^__^

Sigh, I apparently have to solve some problems with my timetable with the Jap school I'm taking lessons with. I wanted to switch to another class for interm 2, 3 and 4 but it seems I can't. No I like my present teacher and truth be told I wouldn't have wanted to switch but for the fact I need some break in between terms. However, it seems you can't, i.e. one has to be in the same intermediate class for all 4 terms. Ooohh oh ... my holiday screws things up so I either need to convince the school to let me take the test earlier (the test takes place one day after my term 2 starts for my class) or to be allowed to take term 2 on the assumption I'll definitely pass my test for term 1 the next day *gulp* Uhmmm ... then again I technically only need 30% for my end-term paper to pass term 1 taking into account the mid-term paper (which I took dead drunk *sweatdrops*).

Kitten: And Clow, please take care of things while I'm gone.
Clow: *sulks*
Kitten: Come on, we can't go on holiday at the same time. Who's going to take care of things.
Clow: :P *takes bags and runs off for his Hawaii retreat*
Kitten: Hey!!! *scrowls* Looks like no-one will be taking care of things *shrugs*
Anyway, will not be blogging for the next 2 weeks as I'll be away. Urgent messages can be passed to me via SMS coz I can get them. Mail will not really be read nor will blogs. If I get back alive, you'll know *winks*

*spies Alucard still in his bunny suit bugging Integra for sweets* >_<;; whooh, outta here!!! *runs for her life*
Integra: *about to shoot someone especially a certain neko as soon as she recovers her gun kitten has hidden*
