hi everyone,
it has almost been a month since my last post! and within this month, many things have happened!

my internship is finally over! during the second last week of my internship, i worked till 12am almost everyday (there was one day when it was 4am) to rush the report together with the team. Luckily, my managers allowed me to go home on time on Friday and did not make me come back on weekend. However, the permenent staff had to work till late on friday and worked overnight on saturday and even came back on sunday!

winglam has been to hong kong and back! during one of the days when i worked till midnight, i was supposed to meet winglam and huiyi. I could not make it, and both of them came to find me at pwc building with chocolates for me! really sweet of them!

today's date is 8/8/07. next year this time, probably many couples will get married or give birth or buy lottery! HUAT AH!

tmr is national day. and i m highly likely going to watch national day parade with my mum and songjie. I had watched the preview earlier, courtesy of thomas koko's preview tickets. I must tell you, the parade was beautiful. this is the first time the parade is held near the waters. usually it is held on land at the kallang stadium. unfortunately, the stadium was torn down this june to make way for a grand sports hub in singapore. so we are having tens of thousands of singaporeans, viewers and performers alike, on a floating platform this time. how cool can that get? they deployed plenty of stunts involving water. i shan't spill the details. if u r overseas and reading this, pls log on to ndp.org.sg to see live ndp 2007 hrough 12 different views from 12 different cameras!

and today in the papers, one of our ministers mentioned something abt fireworks. i think the gist of his msg was that fireworks last for a while. and the cost of it is not cheap. could have built hdb flats with it. but our singaporeans like it. so we move ahead with times and have fireworks! yay!

Happy Birthday Singapore!
