its been a whirlwind of a ride this april. what with my mum & aunts visiting, an impromptu business trip to shanghai, kaye, suz and debra visiting PLUS work on top of it all! it has really left me with no/minimal time to rest!
but i'm pretty much enjoying myself here at EY, so i'm not complaining. my team for my current job's really good & i've gotten a whole lot more exposure to how DD is done. i wouldn't say that i know it all, but i am definitely picking it up along the way. :) its been OT and more OT this week, but surprisingly, its been pretty ok despite the 12/1am hours. guess a good team really does make a whole lot of difference. :) my senior has been joking that the 'upper mgt' ppl like me a lot. well. i guess its gd if it does translate to more projects n stuff where i can learn. honestly, i wasn't too psyched up about the china job in the first place cause it was really last min & hello.. its china.. how exciting can that place be? but, i'm glad that i went.. cause i made new friends (EY HK colleagues) and got to know my own team ppl a whole lot better!
been having really good food for lunch + dinner these 3 days too.. let's take a look at my lunch/dinner menu:
Monday: Lunch - thai, Dinner - Pasta
Tues: Lunch - ginseng chicken, dinner - BBQ beef!
Wed: Lunch - bulgogi, dinner - burgers & fries
yums... and not to mention the coffee bean ice chocolate drink and lemon tea breaks in btw! i have to say that EY does make sure that we never starve! hahahaha. but of course, all things in moderation. too much of a good thing is not good. :)
my schedule appears to be free next week.. do hope that i can get in a short rest before i jet off to Taiwan in early may.. n i may get sent to china again in may, depending on how the mgrs arrange it. well, it beats not having to do i suppose.. though the food could be much better.
wanted to do a really detailed and in depth post abt everything, but i suppose that some things are better left unsaid..
pictures will be up if/when i remember..

onnuri, 부대찌개 & more
headed to onnuri today with 해나언니 today. service was gd.. though i missed the worship.. >_< really miss NCC's worship though.. sigh.. guess i'll just have to DIY.. haha. planning on getting my own guitar soon.. n prolly some classes as well. :) i do think that the service was a tad short too.. ps prince can just go on n on for hours.. hehe. :P
we're getting a holiday on tues! gonna hang out with xialing.. she's in KR for a short trip! will look her up when i go over to TW in may with yvonne as well!!! hehehe.
don't really feel like writing much today.. hmm. n my blog doesn't have that many pictures of me too. haha. as compared to 2008. :P most of my pictures are up on fb.. haven't really been taking pictures either.. guess its cos i'm too used to the place that the need for pictures don't surface.. :P

of olive young & random things
stopped by olive young @ times square today for some retail therapy.. n bought useless stuff just cause the packaging was pretty! though i know that its a really lame excuse!
My Beauty Diary Chocolate + Bulgarian White Rose Mask(13,800won) + Organic Aqua Tissue(1,500won)
the color combination's really nice!
i'm using the Bulgarian White Rose mask right now & it really has a v nice smell! hehe. my 1st day home early this week & it feels really great.. :) worked till 1am on mon & 5am on tues! the horror! i broke my personal best record of 230am in SG twice over in KR! but overall, i still think that the work here is better than SG. the projects aren't really consecutive, so you only really have to work late when the deadline draws near.. unlike SG, where i was booked back to back for the whole year!
i got placed on a banking advisory job cause they found out that i did bank audits back in SG. perhaps i shd have kept my mouth shut. then i would have had the whole week free.. but oh well. its a gd opportunity to learn. so yup. i shd grab the chance to learn more for the time that i'm here.. :)

a lazy sunday afternoon & more
was a v nice & lazy sunday afternoon today! went abt my usual activities. n i got to explore Parco @ Millenia Walk as well as take the newly opened Circle Line!
according to this, it'll only take me 10 mins to reach Promenade from Paya Lebar station!
i'm quite sure that i'll be early for work tomorrow. hehe. esp since the Promenade station is right in front of Centennial Tower. hehehe.
i love the new Circle Line already. ^^ best of all, the distance in between transit stations isn't v long! in comparison with the North East Line (NEL). hehe. nice. ;) looks like i've to find another form of exercise.. n that's gonna come in the form of ice skating!! hehe. it shd be fun!
visited Parco @ Millenia Walk as well.. the 1st 2 levels seemed pretty quiet, but the 3rd was a buzz & hype of activity! families were lining up for lunch at the various japanese eateries. it seemed a tad pricey to me though.
the queue outside Saboten
price for a tonkatsu!
prices @ Saboten were definitely higher than that of Seoul. i wonder why.. maybe its because it costs more to fly the ingredients over to Singapore as opposed to Korea? :P that aside, there seemed to be many patrons in the restaurant.. Singaporeans are an affluent lot indeed.
MPH was having a 30% discount storewide!
would have bought a book there, if not for the fact that they only carried the hardcover version. >_< the difference in price btw the soft & hard cover is $12. n it would be more practical & cheaper to purchase the softcover version. oh well. i shall wait for Kinokuniya's storewide 20% discount. hehe.
passed by this interesting exhibition @ Marina Square on my way to church. Apparently it was a design competition for Google. The shortlisted participants' artwork for each age category were displayed on the boards & passer-bys could vote for the design they liked the best in each category. i got a free google sticker for voting! :) some of these kids can really draw! even those 4-7 year olds. i don't think i can even replicate their work. no matter how hard i try. yeah, i'm hopeless at drawing. i can't draw to save my life! hahaa. that's y, u should never play 'Win Lose or Draw' with me. you're sure to lose. haha.
