January was an eventful month, with OT days and birthday celebrations of a few colleagues, some unfortunate incidents at work and many many busy times.
Celebrated Eunice's and Bonnie's birthdays on 16/1 and 22/1 respectively. A gang of us went out with them to have lunch at places like Ajisen and Xiao Xuan Feng at Hougang Mall. It's nice having these lunches because it also becomes a bonding and destressing session, whereby people talk crap and just laugh.
Then it was the time for another gathering for OT Office 2 people and some people from OT Office 1, which was on 25/1. We went to Serangoons Gardens for dinner and chill out at this restaurant which no one completely took note of the name, hence no one remembered. It was a nice bonding session, finding out more about each colleague and laughing together. This has kinda become our support group session and we are starting to find friends amongst these colleagues.
Cook pasta the following Sat for Zhu and invited Shawn and Ken over to Zhu's house for pasta. Been some time I have cooked, although I'm running cooking group twice a week for patients, as if me really doing it by myself and with Zhu's help, and doing it for others besides patients.
Finally managed to have dinner with Ivy on last Thursday. We went to Soup Restaurant and finally I can have my olive rice after so long. We chatted about things, and I was glad that I had dinner with her given that it's her birthday the next day and she's all alone in SG.
Celebrated Ivy's birthday on last Friday, 1/2. We went to Swensons cause I was craving for ice cream. Once again, a great lunch as it was a good turn out and everyone crap through lunch again. After work, it was dinner with the TAs and HAs, Geraldine and I treated them to dinner at Sanur. Unfortunately, stupid me forgot to reserve places at Sakura Buffet and we couldn't go there in the end, which I'm terribly guilty about the fact that I was so stupid. Luckily, it was great at Sanur too and I hope they had a great dinner.
Has reunion dinner yesterday with my family. Zhu and I were sitted at the kids tables, as usual, I'm still within the kids tables. We went to this hawker centre at Farmart, and it was a huge feast. We had sting ray (speaking of which Zhu treated me to a nice sting ray at my house there too), sotong, pork ribs, lala, mussels, tofu, vege, crab and sparrow meat. It was my first time eating quail meat and it's nice! Afterwards, we went to Gramp's house and the elder kids hang out to play cards while the younger kids, also played cards (guess they have learned it from us) and psp. It was a nice dinner. I always look forward to CNY because our whole family will gather together and it's very joyful to spend time together with the whole big family.
Saying this, it's only 3 days more to CNY, can't wait for it to come!
P.S: This was blogged from Zhu's lappy as my own modem has R.I.P.
