Elooo Elooo...

Has she crawled back from the dead?
What has happened to the entry 6 months late?

This time it shd be more than just a million apologies... oops, heh...
So many things had happened, I don't know where to start :P
So from now onwards, random pics & comments will the the most I can afford out of my itty bit of my busy schedule... sorry guys!

And to facilitate fruitful visits to this lil corner of the world...
Updates shall be included on my nick :)


So for a start, I'll churn out pics from my cheapo (yet useful) phone...
Next posts with feature those nicked from others phones & cams heh...
Enjoy!



The Band: Sherry&Co.

Well, the name's "officially temporary" until we can find one that every member could agree on (which, from the months of bickering since the birth of this humble lil group... would take years maybe, lol)...

No, acronyms do not work either, especially with such a wonderful composition of:
Sherry
Hanrong
Ivan
Tim &
Shi Li

Think we'll need to buy some 4D soon... lol...


So far, the focus are on top 40s covers...
(and maybe some uncle songs too, heh)...
We've been lucky enough to have some events coming our way within a short period of time...
Though the latest was quite an... experience... performing for a supposed high & mighty society...
Oh well, we've all gotta start somewhere aye?
And least we got some great hotel food after a mentally exhausting day's work :)

Later tt night, we carried on with our celebration at Table 108 @Chijmes...

With great plush sofas & 50% off drinks... mmm...

Too bad the offer ain't on anymore :(

Not a bad start for us tho eh...

Hope we'll get a decent weekly gig soon!

Return of the SMSUians

The New Home

Since we've been kicked out of good ol' KR...

We've been living in this other side of the world...

Ok it ain't bad, love the place (perfect color scheme! and lotsa glass, glass!) although it's so ulu tt I spend a min of 16 bucks on cab fare after midnite :S

But then again, who else would be able to afford such a huge bedroom space?

Muahahaha

P.s. These were taken the day I moved in... so pardon the mess :P

(Clockwise L: Dining area; Entrance to bedrooms; (Never-used) Kitchen; Bedroom; Living room (They took away the projector TV & the huge L-sofa, dammit!)

Also for the first time, we mad huge purchases for the household...

With a cartload equivalent to a shopping spree, it was bursting at its seams :S

The community's pretty friendly tho... with strong erm... community spirit...

Pasar malams...

Oh and we found this pet shop tt sold huge centipedes & mini frogs as food...

Cool...

The Workplace Tour

Have been wondering where the nerd now resides?

Lemme take you on a tour to my lair then...

First flag a purple shuttle bus from BV...

It brings u up to an incline behind MOE,

Where you'll see sci-fi like glass buildings complete with skybridges...

You can say it's a biotech equivalent of Shenton Way....

Hop off the bus and you'll see interesting landscapes...

E.g. Zen-like ponds complete with fat & happy kois...
And rows of balls along-side the pavement...

And my fav bit: The Skygarden, situated on the top floor of the office building...
A remarkable atrium solely powered by solar panels (see those dark rectangle patches on the glass window)....

& great Zen-like design of a water feature...

As well as a glassed conference room (including the floor!) set atop a Zen garden...

I like... :D

How about its people?

Strictly color coordinated... the blues vs. the reds...

(Fine it was pure coincidence :P)

At the workplace, you'll get a neverending supply of unique, imported titbits since you get ppl flying in from conferences all the time...

Amongst them: Choc casino chips frm US... Multi-flavoured licorice from Switzerland (lemon flavor, vanilla, etc)...

Sometime you even get some interesting local delicacies: E.g. Garlic muffins (!?!?!?!?) from Baker Boys & whole Scary spiny fishes from Ghim Moh food court...

What's at my desk then, you might ask?

Some pretty lavender flowers nicked off the Hol V food court florist...

And a combi of Maltesers, Butterfly (& a banana???) which I got as bday presents some while ago... sure brings the definition "the thought that counts" to a whole new level... haha...

And yes!! Have you ever seen a Magic Troll since the primary days???

In response to the colleagues gang of punky-haired lil creatures...

I turned my Stikfas male into a Mat Rock guitarist and stuck it on the desktop...

(and the guitar lights up man... its a badge... lol)

There you go, hope tt's good enough a virtual tour :)

Shd you need a proper one... Give me a shout and I'll show u guys ard

As for now... ciao!

Next batch of random pics to be up in a few days, heh...
