Went bunking at around 3 till 5.30 tdy, where my primary objective was achieved.
Needed six tries to clear the objective though.

Afterwards, I headed to my grandmother's house in AMK for reunion steamboat.
Quite a number of my relatives weren't around though, and also my parents, who'd already gone onboard Superstar Virgo earlier in the morning.
Hence the reunion atmosphere in the past seemed to be missing this time round.
Still, managed some pics with my relative's children. Names won't be disclosed for privacy reasons.

The next two days will be the one and only peak period for red packets.
Last year i received approx $350, but only got to keep $160.
With the global economy headed for a lengthened recession, this year probably i'll receive even less.
Oh well, just got to keep my fingers crossed.
Alrights, ending off with a random pic: the signage at the corridor where lift upgrading works are taking place currently.

Only the first two weeks of 2009, and life's already getting quite stormy.
Not literally the weather, it has been the contrary, hot and windy most of the time.
Rather I'm referring to the plenty of negative stuffs that had happened.
While not dwelling too much about them, I still feel a certain degree of worry for myself.
About why I always need others to help me take care of the simplest of things.
About why I always can't seem to react smartly when critical situations arise.
About why I still find it difficult to communicate properly even after attending the course on improving interpersonal skills.
The list can continue further down the lines, but there's no point thinking too much ; Putting 100% concentration and dedication into the job is the key fundamental.
For the second time in as many months, the bus I was in broke down.
The previous was on service 66, 15 mins into the journey from Bedok.
This evening's was on service 171, just 5 mins after boarding. Latest wheelchair-accessible bus somemore, what a joke.
Though I do take public transport very often, this frequency of bus breakdown is unacceptable.
At least the manner in which both bus captains handled the situation was professional, ensuring all passengers do not pay extra fares for their journeys.
But still, if a third such incident occurs to me from now till end of Feb, there's a possibility I may provide feedback to the Land Transport Authority to reflect the unusually high occurrence of breakdowns.
Eventually switched to service 961 and reached home about 30 mins later than usual, at 8.30
My share of dinner wasn't prepared so I went downstairs to get dry handmade noodles.
Eyes gonna slam shut soon; time to have a good rest, nights all.
