surviving this long march

i have not been meeting many of my friends on a regular basis. in fact i had "disappeared" for quite a while haha=). yesterday we had a great fellowship and catching-up. we had so much fun!

some new friends joined the group last night and it was till the end of the day that i realized one of them (who drives) stays in my hdb block!! talk about a small world haha. i realized that i am now not very receptive to new friends. i tend to be not as friendly and eager to make new friends as last time. well my boss said i had an "air of arrogance"??!!

well work-wise, the company is experiencing a high turnover, as expected since early this year. so my workload is piling up. sorta envy my colleagues who are going on a new career path, and i'm sure they will have a better future ahead. all the bonuses thing are just crap. they are never in time or conveniently dismissed.

going to japan in 2 weeks! i'm so excited, especially when i try to do more research on the logistics means and so on(which i had procastinated for a while). however i made a small mistake in my budget estimation so now i have to withdraw more cash from my savings =(. been saving very very hard. i hope the yen will drop further!

well, i can't seemed to conclude my ever-growing shopping list:
  • a handful of t-shirts and collared tees
  • at least a pair of jeans
  • a few pair of nice shorts
  • mittens, beanie and maybe muffler?
  • melon-flavored kit-kats
  • japanese snacks
  • mushroom tea (recommended by a fren)
  • souvenirs for parents and some friends
  • facial masks from fancl
  • accessories like belts, jackets etc.
  • maybe a messenger bag
  • a cable to connect my wii console to my monitor and perhaps some games?
  • maybe a sony camera (for my cousin)
  • burberry shirt (for trying out?)
  • burberry blue label bags (if my colleague do place an order)
gosh. simply had no idea how much i should bring hahaha. anyway almost time for me to go for my movie outing.
