It has started. The countdown to my big THREE-O. I feel it my bones. I need to start taking calcium tablets...at a more regular frequency (not the once a month dosing that I am currently practising...yes, I know...none compliant pharmacist) because according to Abbott pharmaceuticals, "Bone lost starts at 30". But hey...age is just a number I am told.
.
I am not going to tone down...talk less...lose my hearty laughter...but instead I have every intention to LIVE MORE and make every second count. Who is with me?!!!
.
Yeah!
.
Tonight...was...let me think...fun! Yes definitely. True, I was very disappointed that the rain spoilt our paintball session. But hey, we can't always get what we want. So, true to our Chinese nature (yes...Div...don't deny that 'makan' gene in you), we went straight for dinner. Dinner was good...assam steam fish, salted egg crabs, Mantis prawns, yam basket, butter prawns and lots of veggie.
.
The food was gone in the flash. Really. I am not exagerating. Then, came the birthday cake. Then came the series of unfortunate events that lead to yours truly having her face shoved into the cake in front of the entire restaurant. She was then allowed to clean up...first walking the walk of shame through the restaurant to the toilet. Then came the second wave. I should have seen it coming. I really should have...but I did not. Shame on me...must be getting soft with old age. Flour...water...sigh. Poor Bee had to drive a drippy Leech back home.
.
We learn something new each day. The lesson of the day is this: it is really difficult getting flour out of one's hair...and clothes. The picture up up up there is of my hair...still with bits of flour (by this time it had become dough) in it even after a vigorous wash. My shirt too still has bits of flour all over it. I have given up scrubbing it. I will wait till it is dry to pick out the dry bits.
.
Another lesson: friendship...is a really beautiful thing. Before you guys, The Rat had me thinking that my colleagues could never be my friends. Thanks for proving her wrong. So this blog is dedicated to you guys...in alphabetical order...Adwin, Amelia, Bee, Divya, Jing Yong, Poh Wan, Wen Chieh...cause you all ROCK!

I am so touched Ms. Lisha Ng and I too never truly thought that my colleagues could become friends that I would hang out with after office hours until I met you!!... yes I can't deny the fact that I have quite a bit of the chinese gene in me which seems to have been accentuated since I met the rest of the gang. Well there is a bit of me in you and you in me... sounds so wrong ;-)
