I am feeling so damn sick right now..with a heavy head, stuck nose and a bad throat : ( Guess it might be last Tuesday evening rain (Dammit! I should have waited for it to stop), the smooth durian snowskin mooncakes from Marriott Hotel (Man! I cannot stop gorging!) and the late nights (Have been sleeping at 1am because I am hooked on the 12am Taiwanese drama serial) Man, I have become such a whiner! >: ( Regardless, I am a walking inferno now though I have slept the whole afternoon away and drunk gallons of water! (Man, at this point of time, health is apparently more important than anything else)
I must say that last month sales was bad (for me) : ( Couldn't believe that the sales figure on the board was only S$11K (Yes, my eyes popped out) Many of my candidates rejected offers and clients couldn't back fast enough - I felt like pulling my hair out. The only consolation was that I had closed a considerable number of temporary and contractual positions : / It was indeed demoralizing for somebody who had rot in the industry for 3 years to have such "glamorous" results : / I thought this month would be eqally bad now that the market is rather sluggish (The future's bleak) Fortunately, I managed to close a Cost Accountant deal last Friday. Met up with the candidate and tried my best to prep him up and guess what? Everything was sealed on the spot : D (What can be sweeter than one shot one kill?)
Met up with Fat Boy after work and we went to Orchard Road to have dinner. Initially had wanted to try out Island Cafe at Tang's, but the menu was rather limited and he didn't look too interested either, hence, we walked to Takashimaya to try out Mr Sushi, a small eatery on the same level as Cold Storage. We had grilled fish with rice and miso soup (I had mirin saba, whereas he had teriyaki salmon) The bill came to 20 bucks and well, it was worth it. No wonder it was so crowded - We waited for 20 minutes before we got a seat : )
We strolled around Orchard Road after dinner. He had wanted to step into the crowded mooncake fair to buy 金华火腿 mooncakes from Goodwood Park Hotel for Gramps, but I refused as I was not feeling very well (God knows if I would faint in the crowd) Had wanted to catch a movie, but there were no good shows around after Wall.E. What a shame. We went home as I wanted to catch the last episode of "Crime Hunters" (Now you know I am a TV junkie?) After the show, I continued with "A Chinese Ghost Story" followed by "Troublesome Night 2" and yes, my bedtime yesterday was 3am : P I am surprised myself that I could sit in front of the tube for 4 hours straight : D Not sure if there are any good programmes tonight? : P
P/S: The TV set is the best invention of human mankind.
