Fruitful but "Pok" day
Monday, January 11, 2010 @ 12:39 AM
Counting down: 3 more days to leaving.
This is my whole itinerary for the day:
13:05 - Met Ben to collect a gift from the boys ^^ (as he calls it which is namely him, ek & yf). It was... well... wrapped extraordinarily. Can see some effort put in, 'cause got "ribbon". Think he got inspired by Eve's style. LOL. Curious to see Ben's work?? Haha, there you go:
Comments are allowed for all post. Rate Ben's creativity and wrapping skills! Haha, anyway they got me a headphone, and bacon salt. Not too sure why they got me that, the bacon salt. That's why I was wondering why he wrote salt is AWESOME outside. Anyways, it's supposedly a zero calorie, zero fat, vegetarian and kosher seasoning that makes everything taste like bacon, and I'm supposed to be able to use it on EVERYTHING. O and did I mention? It's low in sodium too. Haha, very thoughtful =)
The Legendary Bacon Salt (or maybe I'm just sua gu la)
13:45 - Met up with Song Qian for a FREE lunch after that. Think the bill came up to quite a bit. He didn't let me see, but can roughly add up la. I pray he don't ever go oversea for some super long trip, if not I have to match up his farewell lunch. Lol just kidding la Mr Song =P After your super long lecture on how I exudes this evil aura and am like a little devil that keep nagging you not to go to this wedding dinner that you OBVIOUSLY had no interest in going, I am repenting. Actually, not really. I still think my perception/logic's not skewed! Convinced me otherwise! =P
Only managed to take 2 pictures. Too busy eating already, haas.
16:00+ - Went Chinatown to source for some presents for my new colleagues and supervisor/s in China. Totally not well versed in all this little gestures la~. Luckily got advisor cum helper for the day, haha. Taught me how to subtly "suck up" to my boss. LOL, came at a relatively high price though (considering my dwindling acct). But for my Jiam Tao(A), hope this 'll be a good investment! After much headaches on what to buy and how MUCH to buy, finally can go back home. . .
19:00 - Not so fast! Last day of promotion for citibank/g2000 members! Chiong to get me work wear even though I'm heavy laden with stuffs while waiting for Ben. Borrowed his polaroid for my trip, hopefully can take some nice photos to make into a little album =). G2000 mad crowded with people, I left all my barang barang in a corner where it IS blocking people. Haha, no choice, no place to put already, need to try on my blazer. As always,am indecisive. Spent hours trying on/off this 2 blazers I picked. In the end, ask the auntie sales assistant to decide for me. Haha. Finally can pay for my loots. Butttttt... I already maxed out my citi credit card so can't use that for the additional discount and need my mum's IC since she's the member, so no discount either. Chiong for nothing. Zzz.
So in the end total damage for the day:
Gifts for China counterpart: $65
B'day gifts for wen wen n ll: $40
G2000: $78
Total: $183
*Faints*
