Highlights of the mundane working life =)

Being there as a reserve player for the basketball girls. Although we didn't win Deloitte, who probably has quite a few good players (like no. 11, ex-national player, and no. 7, ex-NTU IVP player). Our girls still did their best and did well...good job and proud of u guys manz...lol *smile*The big group of supporters for the game...I am just glad that they came because it certainly is a morale booster... :DFarewell to the 9 VTs (vacation trainees) who are leaving today.

Clockwise from left: CK, Jason Leong, Meng Hwa, Peter, Me, Winnie, Kona, and Radhika.

Here we got to say bye to Winnie and Kona who are going back to Hong Kong tml...well TAKE CARE GALS! *hugz* :))
Cyril, the other VT from Hong Kong City University. Know him through a few cashcounts together...will miss you too buddy... :)Even though the Mooncake Festival is still some time ahead, Meng Hwa bought a box of them from Raffles Hotel...the Mini Snow-Skin Mooncake with Champagne Truffle & Ganache! *drool*

THANKS to Meng Hwa for the yumilicious, probably the BEST mooncake I have ever tasted! :DThis is the so-called LEGENDARY Raffles Hotel Mooncakes...well I mean that was what was written on the brochure...heehee... :P The filling is pretty classy like champagne and cognac and chocolate truffles being used. This is ABSOLUTELY NOT the traditional Chinese mooncakes we used to have but possibility the best evidence of the growing Chinese-Western fusion culture.. :) THANK YOU for queueing up for the doughnuts from the Doughnut Factory! :D

The doughnuts certainly looks good-tasting from the iconic orange box that you shouldn't be able to miss while you are shopping around at the basement of the Raffles City... :)

Though I have tried it out at last, the question still leaves in head: WHY would people queue up for hours just to get these doughnuts? It certainly tastes good but just probably not to the extent that I will spend so much time to get it...or maybe the joy of getting it is the process of queueing up too...isn't it? :PThe guys: (from left to right) Meng Hwa, Weiming, Junyuan, Peter, CK and JasonSwensen Ice-Cream Cake! :DJunyuan helping with the cutting of the cake. :)

The VTs bought 2 cakes for us as a farewell today...so sweet and nice of them...*touched*

Weiming and Junyuan are probably the luckiest guys in FKT...taking photo with all the pretty gals wor...hahaha...lol *bleah*

Take care Darell, Weiming, Junyuan, Winnie, Kona, Cyril, Darren and Bernard! We will miss your presence in the office guys...see ya and all the best to you all back in schools ya? :)
