Finally had a bit of a breather this weekend as this shitty transaction which has consumed my entire week and caused me many 4 am nights finally finished on Friday.
My nails and hair seem to be growing at a phenomenal pace.
In any case, I'm quite proud of myself. Sitting here for 2 hours I have:
1. booked tickets to Penang in Aug with the Chorale people
2. booked tickets to KL for my friend's wedding, also in Aug
3. arranged for aircon service man to come service my aircon next saturday morning
4. finally called up a cleaning service to clean my house. I can't do it anymore

MRT
I realised it's been a long time since I took the MRT when I saw the
signage to "Joo Koon" and thought it was a mistake. When did Boon Lay
stop being a terminus?

Melting
I've been melting since I got back from London. I really hate the
weather here. Can't someone invent a personal aircon. I'm sure they'd
make a fortune.

Lion King
OMG why did I agree to do the melody for Lion King. It's way above
what normal men can sing....I should wear a lion mask on performance
day so that noone can recognise me in case I errrr crack.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
The mini-performance review went well notwithstanding my laziness.
"Compared to the rest of the staff here generally, and I don't mean to badmouth them, I'd rate you very highly. It's been a pleasure to work with you and were you to stay on I'd have absolutely no problems working with you."
Yay! I guess I ended on a high note.
Of course my stupid friend who was here 2 years ago promptly remarked: "well you only had *1* stellar review. Yours truly had the backing of ALL the bosses. And I didn't even blog about. *Roll eyes*".
Shut up you cow and let me bask in my moment of glory.
I can't believe I'm going home.

Jersey Boys
It was great - I'm a huge sucker for songs from the 50s to 70s - they've just got this really catchy feel about them.
Everytime I watch these musicals I feel so inspired to sing. When I watched We Will Rock You I was a Queen fan for a while. Then it was Wicked. And now Frankie Valli.
I'm going to really miss London. I can hardly believe that I'm going to be flying back to Singapore in less than 1 week! I'm going to be so sad.

"Date" no.2
Is slightly more interesting than the first one.
In the course of dinner she asks: "so why are you single? Very picky is it?"
And I bashfully give a noncomittal: "perhaps".
She might do a stint in Singapore next year and well, if our paths meet again I'd definitely seriously consider a more active stance.
There is the problem of an existing boyfriend, but well, that never stopped anyone has it.
We're meeting again tomorrow at some group function involving lots of alcohol which may very possibly end up with my parading my limited vocals to two people. When you've got it, flaunt it right?

What wonderful reporting we have in the Straits Times. Among today's headlines is one titled: "Trolley thieves EXPOSED". Yes, with EXPOSED in caps.
If I didn't know better, I would've thought I was reading a tabloid paper. What place does this article have in a serious national paper? What will the international expatriate community think of Singaporeans reading this in the national paper?
For shame.
