A not so boring day, finally..

Yesterday.. worked for Co-Org at a launch event for Ciba Vision.. A new type of contact lens, it's quite cool.. Moisturises automatically when you blink. Whoo.. Haha. Too bad they din offer to give us any samples. Aww.. If not I'd definitely wear it man.. Though it's those one-day lenses..

The event was held at Ciba's factory. Guess where is it?! Tuas South Avenue 3. If you have the time. Go take a look at the street directory or check out the add at www.can.com.sg You'll realise.. I am nearer to Malaysia, than to any housing area in Singapore. Haha.. I was shell-shocked when the cab fare from Boon Lay (the west-est MRT that I can get to) to Ciba's plant was $9.60.. About the fare that it takes to go from Hougang to Chinese High.. -.- And Shihui had to rush off after the Ciba event to go to Changi Airport for another event set-up. WA.. Imagine the cab fare. The uncle can laugh his way home after dropping Shihui already.

It was quite a fun night, though exhausting... Events are usually like that.. Rewarding, yet exhausting.. Kao.. I'm now still abit tired after sleeping 9 hrs.. Shall go work out later.. Heh.. And.. After the event.. Went supper with colleagues and boss. Kao.. They ordered so much much much food... 3 females, 2 guys.. And the other guy is boss, who cannot eat a lot cos "lao3 le".. And the best part.. Cats moved in soon after our food was served.

Mel, our manager.. Is freaking scared of cats. And i stress.. FREAKING SCARED. She was telling us she can jump on hawker chairs in the middle of a meal when cats go too near her. And her family finds it a "total embarrasment" to eat at hawker with her. Hahah... Last night, I got a sight of what she meant.. When the cats are at one table's length away, she would put her legs up on the chair aleady.. We had to spend the whole time chasing cats away, for Mel and our own good. Serious.. It was for our good too..

See, Mel was looking out for the cats constantly. And towards the end of the meal, the cats probably decided to scare her.. When she looked at one of it, it sprinted towards her, and Mel made a double hit.. No, she din endanger the cats with the hits, but innocent colleagues who just happened to be beside her.. Haha.. She first backed into boss and toppled her cup of Teh.. Fortunately for me, I siam-ed fast enough to avoid the Teh but Boss' fingers was crushed in between an umbrella and his own thigh when Mel backed into him. Mel was screaming also, and the few pple left in the hawker looked to our table.. I tell u, lucky it was supper at 1230am.. Not dinner or whatsoever, if not I'd probably have left the place with a paper bag over my head. Haha..

It was a good day all round, finally something different from my mundane daily routine of online session and TV..

Mel scared of "meow". Hahha... Ok, I'm evil. But you should have been there. =D
