but the one week in batam was real hard work...
pulling cables across the deck, setting up gps antennas on top of the crane on the rig,
which at the very top, where i was, shd be abt 70 meters from the ground.
think damien, mark n ben would have been so scared dat they prob will have shitted in their pants.

came back w 3 new pairs of shoes n abt 14 tops including 5 which i ordered from chargrilled
n a hoodie from funkyshoes.

was at cafe del mar for dinner last weekend to celebrate jacq's bday.
food wasn't all dat great. so dun go there w high expectations.
tho the food does look good... but looks can b deceiving... and they are in this case.

but the company was great. it's always nice to hang w the church peeps.
hope to do it more often...
of coz not forgetting the fri dinner kakis as well.

been playing a bit of mj recently... n losing money... luck not so good.
i need to b cheapo n find noobs to play w.

going to batam on thur for work... gona b there like for abt 5 days.
den coming back n hopefully will stay ard till my leave starts n i start preparing for my dec shanghai holiday
which includes a xi'an/ beijing trip...
which means the bund, terracotta army, possibly skiing in beijing, shopping along nanjing road, visiting notable architectural n historical sites ard shanghai/ beijing.

unfortunately, i'll b flying on china eastern due to budget constraints.
flying on sq will set me back by another 450. which i can easily change to RMB to spend.
so have to make do...

esp since my dad din give them a good rating when he n my mum flew china eastern for their 9 day yunnan trip
which they juz came back from.

been sending out resumes, hoping for a reply so i can change to a job dat will keep me in sg so i can have a social life.
n meet frens n watch musicals n plays n go sentosa for chillout sats, botanical gardens for picnics, eating all over the country.
n of coz hopefully salary can help me afford a van.

guess dat's abt it for now...
for all of u having ur exams now or have them coming up, good luck !!
for those struggling w work, 加油!!
for those struggling to find work, 加油!!
for those who are sick, get well soon!!
