had my company dinner at orchard parade hotel last night. really had a fun time with my colleagues as well. everyone was literally... CRAZY ~~
even before the dinner started, i was anxiously looking for the presence of red wine. lol. apparently, my boss had not arrived yet, so all we could drink first was chinese tea & fruit juices. i was almost into my 3rd glass when the second course is being served. i guess i drank too fast... and in the end, i could only hang onto the 5th course because i was half-full from drinking. as for the rest, i could only took some small bites and eventually skipped the dessert.
started to get a little high, but I WASN'T DRUNK. i still know what i was doing. one of my colleagues even tested to see if i am sober-minded or not. zz.
in total, i drank 6 glasses of red wine, 2 cups of chinese tea, 2 long glass beverage (don't know the name of it) & one orange juice. and... yes, i vomited in the end. BUT, the staff took away my wine glass (even though i did tell her that she can come back shortly to pour the wine 'cos i needed a little break first) and never returned it :(
after finishing the dinner, we went on to play the bingo game. it was quite fun actually, when most of us got really excited to get a strike. just once and we could pick a number that determines our prize. i got 2 cans of abalone after that :D
shall ask my jap colleague for all the pictures taken ~~ and put them up in my facebook acc soon... hopefully :)

saw this article in the jan'10 issue of teenage, talking about the personality from the various colors. decided to post it here... and see if the description is true or not!
Red - You're passionate about many things, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. When you fall in love, you really fall hard! It may be difficult for you to get back on your feet again but your passion will lead you to find joy in life, no matter what you do!
Orange - Modern and forward-looking, you have an appreciation for all things contemporary including new technologies and ideologies! However, you're someone who also understands the importance of learning from past experiences. After all, history is where you learn from all your mistakes!
Yellow - Just like how sunshine brightens up a dark room, you're the spirited ingenue, hopeful about many things in life! Don't bother with those who accuse you of being naive. Even though you aren't aware of the world's ways, most of the time you just simply prefer to see the good in people.
Green - You have an appreciation for the natural gems that life has to bring. From fresh fruit and veggies to scenic places, you love it all! It's also no surprise that you have an innate fondness for animals too. You often feel claustrophobic living in the city, and long for something more than just a routined life.
Blue - Some people think you're proud and aloof, but you are just reserved by nature. Preferring to think before you speak, and contemplate all the mysteries in life, you're calm on the outside. However, the few who have seen your true self will know that you're just putting on a front!
Purple - Flamboyant ins your middle name! You love fashion and the arts, and are not afraid to shine! Even though some of your friends call you superficial and materialistic, once they get to know you, they'll realize that you are much deeper than that. You also make an extremely loyal friend!
Violent - You are quite the daydreamer, always peering out of the window, waiting for something magical to happen. You're also a romantic, although you simply won't admit it! However, you have some trouble turning your thoughts into tangible things because of your lack of focus.

kept on disturbing my colleagues. asked them to dress up in a more... handsome way. They will then be able to attract more girls during the wedding dinner for this coming sat. haha :P One of the drivers even asked me, "So when is it going to be your turn?" Faster asked me to find a boyfriend soon -__-" It's complicated lah. Some of my colleagues @ work will know why. *Sigh*.
Promised to read my eclipse within this week... been skipping it for soooo freaking long ~
After which I shall buy breaking dawn. Sometimes should indulge myself with a good book, while relaxing on the bed plus some great music being played :)

SIGH. going back to work tomorrow :( kinda miss the holidays ~~ get to sleep & wake up late. i wished it was much more longer :P (kinda make me even more lazy though). i guess i had to wait for "quite some time" before i get to enjoy the next public holiday. quite interesting to know that valentine's day falls on the same day as cny. felt that the occasion was not the same... a few years ago. supposed to be a happy event. but... i pretty much hoped to avoid certain people, for fear of facing the same questions which they always asked, and the facial expressions. planned to take another week's of leave, maybe when i'm close to clearing the annual days-off.
currently i'm into tom & jerry cartoons. bought quite a number of them. watching it just brightens up my mood... somehow. though the quantity is catching up on my tweety/looney tunes collection :P
i do not know why, suddenly i have got the urge to keep buying cosmetics. 2 perfumes, lotion, treatment essence, cleansing mask, 2 body lotions & moisturizers, etc.
MUST CONTROL ~~ *cross fingers*

sis brought back the dvds for the antm & project runway which i asked bro to help me get. now i have got something to watch whenever i feel bored :)
still have not bought the formal dress to wear on my colleague's wedding.
went to the salon today to re-color my hair. chatted with the staff & we were talking about alvin & the chipmunks 2. they were soooo cute. watched the first part on cable previously. planning to catch the sequel tomorrow.
damn bored now. resorted to playing downloaded games from the various websites. maybe i should start watching my reality show dvds :D

a brand new year. a brand new post.
went to watch the treasure hunter earlier on with my colleagues at the cathay. okay, it was one damn boring movie. the storyline was way too draggy, no climax, and the actor/actress' dialogue was so out-of-place. in the end, after watching the film i have absolutely no idea what the treasure was. there was only a little (yes, indeed) action about 30 minutes before the movie ends. oh yes, it was also the FIRST movie that i sat through, and started to fall asleep within the first hour it was showing.
but before that, saw the confucius trailer starring chow yun-fatt. planning to catch that as well.
my hair color is fading... need to have a re-do at the salon tomorrow ~
