dearie me how time flies. this wk was hectic at the pharmacy. the norm - shaun bugging me, alvin nerves, ivan's new phrase-of-the-week : its like giving an eskimo a refrigerator to some horrid customer. (hahaha). some customers are just plain horrid. life in the service sector really req alot of patience. & of course a good command of lang which i, obviously but disputedly, do not hv. i'm effectively monolingual & proud of it.

dearest jeanie.. yup i'm at guardian, white coat and all... ending this fri la. my 6 weeks attachment. in a flash. & i still feel there's much to learn... does 2 more years of studying qualify you? i dun think so.. argh. there's a wealth of knowledge out there. shucks i'm starting to sound like i'm keen to study again... neah.....

on fri (i'm backdating again) was the JIAKAI-COOKING-SWEDISH-FOOD party. there was so much foood.. the amazing aubergine cheese pastry thing was so great. and there's a wonderful dip made of greek yoghurt & cucumber & garlic. etc etc. so much foooood. and out-of-shape meat balls. yummy yummy for my tummy. =)

tmr we, the golden rooster gang, are gg to a KELONG!!!! yay!!!!!!

mighty mao (not v mighty) and mika dropped by yest. so sweet. and mika was so excited. i went to attend to the customer then i heard a crash. my heart sank cos i tot it was mighty mao's fault. surprisingly he didnt. (the 3rd time the kodomo shampoo toppled)

watched ET on tv just now. nemo said tt when i watched it when i was small (actually i'm still small, & just as cute) i cried and cried. but this time i didnt. is it just that when one grows up u become immune to everything - the horrors of suicide bombers; become so numb to the evil in the world? like what Good Charlotte sang, 'the world is black, and hearts are cold, there's no hope, that's what we're told'... yes.

textbooks / modules should be made of rock music lyrics.

hee hee. stories to tell. today, as i was unglamourously squatting on the floor pasting price labels, this box of Lemsip was waving near me and a deep voice went 'excuse me, blah blah blah' so i went, hold on for a sec, stuck my label back and very professionally stood up and went 'how may i help you sir' (rather, it sounded like how may i help *scream scream scream*) cos mr. taogay aka JIAKAI was standing there with a goofy grin.

yes goofy grin. no one uses the words goofy anymore.

anyway, wt a pleasant surprise to kill of the mundan-ity insanity of a wed afternoon... taogay even did his impersonation of the bad-throat-day - he did a i-am-dragon sound (it was gross and disgusting, bad enough tt he always burps in the clubroom) anway.. he's really got a bad throat. bad as in sick, just in case u were wondering.

anyway, it was nice of mr taogay to drop by. my my. wt a pleasant surprise. even tho this post mostly sounds disgusted at him but mr. taogay (tho taogays are poisonous) is my v gd fren from csc. yes, life in clubrm would not hv been great w/o him and the golden rooster gang.

and pleasant surprise #2 was tt we had lunch with a locum who was at the mrt.. a nice guy from london (lun-dun) who is singaporean but has been there since pri sch days. oh luck. and he was totally UKBC if u know wt i mean. oh hurrah hurrah.

was watching Les Ballet Trockadero on tv last night.. (the male ballet troupe who dance classical ballet in parody!!! their skirts are really really nice man...) who did their rendition of swan lake all in parody!!!!!!! (hilarious!) cos they were so exaggerated!!!! like flutter eyes & tripping over their skirts & twirling and all... and lotsa others.. fav being the dying swan where this guy in a tu-tu pranced very gracefully indeed and dropped feathers from his tu-tu all the way, finally dying with his legs in the air... a rousing applause of bowing for 10mins. crazyiness. they are so so professional & graceful... oh wt a life! http://www.trockadero.org/
