~Surprise!~
Yea yea, I'm back from work. Back to my 4.5 days work week. Haha!
Anyway, last sunday, I found it so hilarious when my sec sch friend msg me to say happy belated birthday. 'Cos it's almost 2 weeks since my b'day. I appreciated the thought but still found it funny. It turned out that she remembered my b'day as 25th of Mar. No idea how she remembered it as that date!
So....can u imagine how much more shock I am when my colleagues and boss celebrated my b'day on Wed! Yes! The Wed that just past, 29th of Mar!
I found it weird that day when my department co-ordinator was in the lab. She rarely comes into the lab unless we had bought food for her or something. Oh ya, she deserves an Oscar award man! She acted so well, pretending that she has nothing to do that's why she there. And when my boss ask all of us to go in to the office, she was like, "huh? what? what's happening?"
So we all went inside to the office. And there was this cake on my table. I was thinking whose b'day was it. 'Cos u see, my table is like a spare table. Anything we want to share, like food, mag, or misc stuff would be placed on my table so I thought nothing of it.
My Oscar winning colleague was like, "whose b'day huh? whose?" So my boss was like, "You start singing then you will know whose b'day it is!" So imagine my surprise when they say my name! Then they were so apologetic that they missed my b'day and celebrated it 15 days late!
They got me a really cute card. The front was like a b'day cake running away with candles chasing after it and the word "Oppps" on it. The inside read, "Your b'day got away from me (they change the me to us)!"
And when I opened my present. Gosh! I almost blushed to see what a fabulous prezzie they got me! It's so lovely! It was a pendent. (I always suspected that if they got me a prezzie it would be some sort of accessorie like necklace, ear ring, etc.)
And...here it is! 
P.S. I got my pick Razr already! Other than the msg is too laggy to me and the camera is lousier than my previous Samsung that I was using, I love it! (mainly b'cos I love the colour la! Haha!)

~All grown-up~
The Nokia 7280 is no longer for sell! Haha! 'Cos i'm trading it tmr! For a......Mototrola Razr! Pink one! Haha! I know...that's so passe. But I'm only using it as a secondary phone to my O2...that is when I get my O2. I will call it my clubbing phone. 'Cos I will use it when I go clubbing as it is slim enough to put into my pocket without creating an unsightly bump!
I'm trading it at a lost. If I get the v3i version, it would be more even but I dun like it to be silver! If only there is black. Doesn't matter la. Anyway, the person I'm trading it with, gave me the phone I'm using it now at $0. So who am I to mind! And Nokia 7280 is damn hard to sell la...cos it's a girl phone and everyone noes that sms-ing is damn mafan and takes too long!
Anyway, that aside, do you think kids are growing up too fast? Or rather S'pore kids?
I was waiting for the bus to come home from work today and there was this 2 little girls with their mum. The older girl, 5 years of age, was having a conversation with her mum. This auntie beside them den commented to the mum about how smart and grown-up the girl was behaving.
It really is a nice change to see little kids behaving all grown-up instead of whining all the time. But dun u think it a bit like no childhood? I mean, behaving well and behaving grown-up is different. You dun have to behave grown-up to behave well.
And later in the bus, the same little girl was doing her maths homework. guess wat she's doing? Multiplication! Oh my gosh! I think I din even know such maths existed till I was in pri. 2! In my time, if u can get 74+26=100 right at the age of 5, everyone will say how smart you are already!
Now that I think about it. My cousin's son and daughter behaves really grown-up too! They dun speak like a kid at all. In fact, when me and him behaved silly in front of my neice, she asked me, "why do that uncle behaves like this?"
Maybe it's b'cos of us being more educated. So we educate our kids to behave and to learn as much as possible, that's why they become grown-up so fast.
Is it a good or bad thing? I can't judge. But I hope my kids will still be able to enjoy their childhood.

~Gonna have jaundice soon!~
Dun you feel that the weekend just fly past when you are working?
Anyway, I went to donate blood on sat. Before donating, you will have to go through a brief check-up where the doc asks some questions and take your temperature and blood pressure. I was surprized to find out that I had slight low blood pressure. Think was 97/56.
Maybe that's the cause of why I feel tired so easily and getting headaches.
Anyhow, I still managed to donate and as a result, I have a big bruise! One big haematoma! Think the nurse's skill cannot make it. At first when she poke the needle in I couldn't feel a thing, but she poke more and more and I could actually feel where the tip of the needle is! Could feel the pressure of the needle going thru in my veins! Think she poke too deep in. As a result, the needle oso have to be lifted up so that the blood could flow into it!
But the flow was slow. At one point, she came and move the needle in, out, in, out, up, down, up, down! Dang, I can feel the pain k! And blood was oozing out of the "hole" in my flesh. Since so much blood is coming out, there's no reason to say my blood is not flowing wat! So I conclude is her skills cannot make it.
And like the previous time, after four hours, the wound was still bleeding. Oh ya, and now you get to keep the "heart"! You noe, the stress ball like thingy they give you to squeeze so that the blood will flow? And it has the words "Are you my type" on it, which I think is so cute!
