Was watching the telly in the hotel b4 checking out and the hosts of the morning show, sunrise, were interviewing this guy who had juz released a book abt compatibility based on ur birthdate.
all u need to do is to add the digits of ur bdate and reduce it till it's a single digit.
eg. 4/9/1978 = 4 + 9 + 1 + 9 + 7 + 8 = 38, 3 + 8 = 11, 1 + 1 = 2.
went to google for the analysis and i must say it's a fairly accurate analysis.
if anyone gives this a try, let me know how accurate it is.
gona b checking out soon and going down to st kilda's beach.
hope luna park is open, but i really dun think so coz the sch hols are over.

Luck Running Out?
I happily checked out of the hotel today to go to the vessel,
confident we'll get my test done and we'll sail out.
but let's juz say i think my luck has run out.
first i missed the captain's email in the morning which could have saved me all the misery.
coz he emailed me to stay on in the hotel coz the vessel isn't sailing till sunday. 2 nites leh!!
i could have done so much more w 2 days n 2 nites lor. like buy more clothes and shoes n gamble some more.
but instead i'm stuck onboard the vessel, with nothing to do, no shopping, no gambling, no walkabouts.
with a slow internet connection, tho i shd b grateful dat there's internet access onboard.
and to make things a little more worse, the internet connection point in my cabin isn't working and i have to use the connection in another cabin.
kinda getting a little sick of this waiting thingy. i juz wana get out and go back.
coz wad was supposed to be a hit and run job, became a lengthy car chase.
so i'll b missing on sat, the super bbq we've been planning for and on sun, sentosa sunday,
which we haven't have had in quite a long time as well.
and i cant go back in time to start my IPT since i've missed 3 sessions now.
and i can only miss 2 sessions if i wana get rt exemption.
so dat means i'm gona re-book for another schedule for my IPT.
ROAR!!

Billy Elliot
The show was great!!
the dancing was fantastic - the ballet and the tap.
ESPECIALLY the tap. loved it.
had a little trouble trying to catch the accents. but on the whole, it was great.
the ending bit when everyone was coming out to take a bow was a real treat coz everyone was tapping.
wonder when they'll come to sg and i'll love to see where they get the peeps to play billy.
they got 5 aussie kids to play the lead kid roles of billy, michael (billy's good fren) and debbie so the kids get enough rest.
and i think i caught the show on opening nite :P
lucky me!
and while on my way back to the hotel after e show, i saw this:
a stretch hummer la!
in bright pink no less!
alritey... i'm off to crown now!
wish me lotsa luck!!

You Know...
You're kinda screwed when u know u have to wake up at 8.30 to start work
but u're still online and wide awake and still playing mousehunt, robot builder and fish wrangler on fb.
flying to melb on business class was indeed a real pampering experience.
a seat wide enough to sit 1 1/2 of me, as well as a seatbelt w airbag
this is the seat next to mine my personal entertainment centre seatbelt w airbag - who would have thought?
- i was too lazy to get off my arse to take a pic of MY seat,
3 course meal after take off,
appetiser main course dessert
another small one juz b4 landing (din take foto of this one),
a seat dat can also transform into a flatbed, awesome headphones, little bedroom slippers.
and headphones dat ACTUALLY look and feel like headphones
it's so shiok, first thing i did when i got into the room n got the lappie set up was to check if i can upgrade to biz for my return trip and have enough for a free trip somewhere end of the year or early next year.
and i think i can! dat means i dun have to put my krispy kreme under the seat in front of me and have no space to place my feet :D
i hope i get to finish my job by tom and have wed and thur to walk ard to shop and to check out more of melb.
