Firstly, I'm pretty much alive and kicking but just too overwhelmed by everything that I havent the time nor energy to update.
Life: it's not too bad, but considering it's the hols and I should be in Japan now but I'm stuck at uni doing assignments, it's kinda sucky ey. Still, it was fun hanging out with everyone, more meet ups man.
Work: it's shit. Another month more and I'm done with the place. It's not that I'm quitting so easily but seriously, it's shit. The new manager sucks and considering I didnt have any "manager" training, I think i'm doing a way better job. It's bull that you said we'd have fixed schedules from the start and it'll be easier to swop shifts and yet each time I want to swop you make such a fuss about it. Your orders are in a mess, your shop's in a mess and you're doing a terrible job. Step up man, or your shop will be on the brink of extinction.
Love: things are still smooth sailing. we have our quarrels but it ends up more of a friendly fight then anything and i find that amusing. I dont remember being so happy before and I'm thankful for having you in my life.
I guess that sums up my life lately in a nut shell. Enjoyed the past week tremendously although I was pretty much stuck in the comp lab most of the time. The birthday surprise was a success. Sunday was fun, shopping at habourtown, preparing dinner - Tempura vege, curry chicken, roast chicken and egg tarts (it's much better this try =), thanks to wendy and tsuey for helping out with the base as well), casino, dinner and k till the wee hours. Had to drag myself up this morning and I ended up sleeping the arvo away, waking up only when althea came into the room around 7ish.
Anyway I did well for my mid sem, which is good considering we failed our first assignment for that module. HD's out of the league but I think I should be able to pull a D or at least I'm guranteed a C. Wish me luck with my other assignments.
Back to work. Ciaos~

Weekend was quite a blast, caught Up again but in 3D, enjoyed company over chocolate buffet, fireworks and korean dinner and breakfast before work on sunday.
I've always liked fireworks, although some people don't as they find that fireworks are such a waste, you only see them for that few seconds and they're gone, forever. But lets put it this way, fireworks are like life. If we can brighten up everyone's life during that short few seconds, it's much more memorable than living life in darkness.
and of course fireworks are best watched with loved ones. friends, families. hopefully you've made their lives as bright and colourful.
