Talk to my hand

A taxi driver just showed me his hand, when I was trying to tell him in detail where my destination was.

I was telling him, very politely, "Uncle, I need to go to Yishun, and then to Hougang. Yishun it's at (That's when the hand came up)". He apparently decided to head to Yishun before finding out the exact venue.

I have been ticked off one too many times for giving too little details. But this time, the uncle decided he didn't want to know too much?

The hand sign is truly an intimidating one.

Moving right on...

I am almost done with Raffles Place. 8 months isn't a long time, but sufficient to instil the Raffles Place culture in me.

I have learnt how to make sure my tissue pack is differentiated to chope/reserve seats properly. I now know where the best (& cheapest) lattes and teh-sis in Raffles Place are. Fruit juices at The Arcade are simply the best ever to boost your day.

Above it all, the most lucrative spot to score freebies is at Raffles Place greens at lunch time, where I received blister-busting bandaids, a travel-sized toothpaste and even sanitary pads!

Just 11 more days to go and I am done.

Yummy lunch

I just discovered another to-die-for sandwich - Cedele Depot's Shrimp Avocado!

This was recommended by my colleague and I finally got to try it today.
After braving the long queues at peak lunch hour-Raffles Place, I took my first bite in the comfort of my office.

The combination of shrimp and avocado won it all for me. First, there were generous slabs of avocado, with mayo to top it off. Coupled with fresh, fat & juicy shrimps, it was so easy to finish my lunch, a feat my friends would credit me for (you see, I have a big problem with finishing up food!)

Looks like I will be swinging by Cedele Depot soon again!

Busy busy busy

Weekend was packed... and I mean, packed!
I spent my entire weekend packing (pun alert!) my room and it's now in a decent state. Now that I have kept count of my clothes etc, I can now get what I need at the GSS :P

Confirmation

It's been a while, hasn't it? Well, I am trying my best to revive blogging so let's see how it goes.

I have just finished up my six-month probation at work. A painful and draining process, but I have come through. I have learnt some new things, both good and bad, both professionally and un-professionally. I guess it's true what they say, you never stop learning. I hope the next part of my work journey can only be smoother, with less awkward and "frightful" situations.

In search of perfection

Don't search for perfection if you don't know what you want. Coz you wouldn't know it even when you do find it.
