Time Flies

So fast, 4 days of weekend & holidays have passed. Today it is Wednesday and I am back to work. The day started with me downloading and reading 60 e-mails, then started to book a ticket for a meeting in the Maldives.

Actually, my work started yesterday at 1500 hrs with a call from my site team member at the Maldives. Then at 1630 hours, I received another call from the Project Manager from Hong Kong requesting me to attend a meeting on the 29th Sept 2009.

The weekend was great. On Saturday, me and me gf went for a movie. We watched "The Ugly Truth". It was really an entertaining show. To my surprise, when we went to the cinema, there was no queue. The barrier lines was so empty, we only stood there for about 3 minutes or so, its our turn at the counter already. We did not make any reservations and hope to just buy any tickets that was booked and not collected, but it will only be released 30 minutes before show time. Hence, we waited for another 15 minutes and went to queue again and got our tickets. Good seats too!!

After the movie, we went for dinner, then pack some dinner back for my mom. Then, I send my gf back with my mom sitting behind enjoying the scene. Upon arriving at my gf's house, she realized that she had forgotten to bring her house key out, so she called her mom to open the gate for her. Then as her mom came out, I think it is the 2nd time both our parents meet each other, they chated as I went into her house to collect some stuffs from her.

On the way back, me and my mom drop by my uncle's steamboat restaurant. Surprisingly, another uncle of mine was also there and we all sat down and talked until like 1am before coming home.

As this is the 3rd Sunday, I woke up at 0700 to go for my volunteer work at Tzu Chi Free Clinic. Then, since Monday is also another holiday, me and my volunteer friend we for a cuppa tea and chit-chat until like 3pm at the mamak shop. After that, I went home and hit the bed as was tired from waking up early in the morning. That evening, my old classmates called for mamak again at our usual gathering spot and we spend time talking from 1030pm until 1230am before calling it a day.

Nothing unusal on Monday. Did not meet with my gf as she went out with her classmates for ladies day out. I did not leave home until like 3pm as my mom asked me to go to the gas shop to see if they are open to get a new gas regulator as the existing unit we have had became faulty. Since its 3pm, I went and bought some "Poh Piah" for tea time. It had been a while since I last have this food. Nyam nyam....

Then, on Tuesday, me and me gf went for another movie "G-Force", an animation movie talking about a group of specially trained spy guinea pigs + a mole. Entertaining!! We watched the 1pm show, so by the time the movie ended, its just nice tea time, we went to a very nice tea shop to have our tea and scones. I send my gf back to her house and me went back to have dinner with my mom.

That's how I spend my weekend and Hari Raya holidays. It was relaxing. That is what holiday is suppose to be isn't it?
