There were 7 of us. Nana and Niu Niu’s appointment is at Pacific Plaza. So we decided on Lido to watch Slumdog Millionaire. We bought the tickets for 5 (got 2 for free as ABN Amro bank got special promotion) for the show at 1630.
Slumdog Millionaire, the only thing I know about this show is that it has won some awards and the actors are all INDIANS and its a comedy. Well, at the start of the show, Niu Niu is already making a lot of ‘eeeees’, ‘aiyehs’, ‘aiyos’ etc etc noises beside me. At 1/4 of the show, she said she cannot take it and walked out. So only the 6 of us continued with it. Basically, Niu Niu dislikes show with any cruelty content, which I think most of us have seen worst compared to Slumdog Millionaire. Haha.. Anyway, I do not wish to go into details to the show. The main attention is on Niu Niu.
Show ended at 183o. We found Niu Niu sitting outside along the cinema reading 8 days (magazine). Then she started asking us how was the show? the ending? Nana seems to be the only one giving her the details. So she targeted at her. When we were about to go our own way, she started crying (at the entrance of Lido) thinking of those poor kids living in the slum. Hahhahha, I finally found a match to the throne of being a cry baby.
Silly Michelle.
And Teng, by the way, its not Scumdog Millionaire, its Slumdog Millionaire

During the new year dinner for the whole tax department, Debbie and Teng both won the fastest beer drinker under the ladies and men categories respectively. Being trained frequently at birthday celebrations and ‘meet up with Mr Poon’ sessions have done them good. The winner each get a $50 Crystal jade voucher. So the 2 winners both from our table won $100 worth of Crystal jade vouchers.
So we decided to have a “Project Friday”.
We will take half day to celebrate for the 2 winners
Of cos, Ms Gan is invited and is more than willing to say yes.
Our project itenary would be as follows:-
(1) Set off to Takashimaya for the expensive lunch;
(2) Catch “Slumdog Millionaire” at Cineleisure, 4pm;
(3) Rest and relax for the rest whilst Nana and Niu Niu go for their hair cuts.
TGIF!!

This week went past in a blink. I was swarmed with loads of CITQ, notices, and more CITQs and more notices. Managed to finish a few nasty ones but was still left with a stack of them which requires my action. Work isn’t getting any better with my Partner asking about status of a piece of (not so urgent but demanding client) work; client requesting for immediate action on not so urgent stuff; advice which needs to go out by next monday; administrative work like chasing of bills which I dunno when it became my responsibilities etc etc etc.
Anyhow, all these will have to wait till next week when I am recharged over the weekend with mahjong.
Hope you all have a good weekend ahead.
