Long Long Post
Instead, I reached the pantry at 7:30 to watch the ladies play with cucumbers.
It all began when the Events Mgt team planned a 'Finger Food Presentation' competition within the department. We had 5 teams, which were made up of the Bank1ng Helpdesk, P@yments Helpdesk, Ca11 Supp0rt, P@yments Investigation and the Mgt teams.
I may be the only guy there, but that doesn't mean I am a total flop in the kitchen. I was given the most sacred task.
Slicing the cocktail sausages.
O_o
The entire preparation process took us slightly more than twenty minutes. I know, it's quite an embarrassment. But you can't fault us, 'cus half the time we were checking out our competitors' work.
Presenting our C@ll Support item: Hawaiian Escapade
Yvonne's jelly was a total sell-out. Everyone rushed to get 'em. But we didn't manage to secure the top place. Damnit. The competition was so intense!
But how can we win when the VP was making crepes by herself? She brought the utensils, and even the mobile pan-powered-by-kerosene-which-makes-yummylicious-crepes!
And there you go... the Mgt Team's crepes.
Yes, they came in second.
WHAT?
Second????
Then who's first?
With 5 lovely items, the judges had a hard time to decide. It baffled even the Head and the MIS team.
Eventually, the P@yments Investigation team came in first. Yet again. The 2-tier silverware they used emulated the one at Fullerton Hotel. I had some éclairs, which was so good. And yes, they were all hand-made.
I enjoyed the item B@nking Helpdesk presented. Yes, the lychee and cheese were good.
And I just realised I didn't even bother with the P@yments Helpdesk! But I thought I should give credit to Rebecca for her potato salad.
Anyway, in my recent focus group, we interviewed some of our friends and in it, projective techniques were used. For example, if 5ingap0re is a car, what would it be?
Today, I found this comic strip in the papers.
Putting this aside, Elizabeth told us that in the two recent freak escalator accidents, both children were wearing Crocs shoes.
But seriously speaking... you don't see crocodiles taking the escalators right?
Oh, those of you who had your wisdom tooth/teeth extracted, please please please share with me your experiences! Tell me about the excruciating pain you went through. Scare me! Describe the agony, the number of tooth extracted, how you survived the ordeal, where you had it done, how much you paid for it and...
MOST IMPORTANTLY....
How many days/ weeks of MC you had ar?
PLEASE please please drop me a comment can?
I have one that's bugging me but I'm trying so hard to avoid confrontation of having the wisdom tooth removed.
Not as if I'm not stupid enough.
Night.
