Chinese New Year

Haven't had the time to update my blog. Still adjusting myself to the long working hours. Celebrated my birthday last week, just a low key affair, dinner with my loved one. Had a surprise at the office the next day - it was abt six pm (dats normally the time we have dinner before resuming work) and I said to a colleague that I was hungry. 2 minutes later two of my other colleagues came into the room with an Oreo cheesecake, which they had bought earlier. And they all sang me a b'day song... orrrrr stho sthweet!!! Have not blown candles in many years, the last one I believe was on my 21st. Took me a few breaths to blow 'em out. I was told later it should be taken in one deep breath, well at least I learnt sumthin new on my birthday.

I'm really enjoying work at the moment. My colleagues are such great fun we sometimes get carried away with our chit-chatting. Unfortunately I will be assigned to my next job the week after next. It was this very nature of the profession that made me do audit, the ever changing environment that brings about exposure to different learning opportunities. That keeps away the monotony of work. I was told my next team are nice people too... looking forward to a new environment, even though I haven't had enuff of my current work yet!

Anyway, tried to be a little adventurous today. Walked around Desker Road about midnight with my sweetheart, no not looking for bapoks, although we saw quite a few he-shes, but in search of good food. Found an 'Usman Restaurant' (if I remember correctly) by the roadside. We were bored of prata so we looked for nothern indian food instead and the discovery was not disappointing. The plain and garlic nan, the pepper chicken and keema was excellent. And the teh tarik was perfect - the right combination of tea and milk, not too sweet, not too tasteless, just perfect. And to top it all up, the owner was extremely friendly, recognizing us as first time customers, he made sure everything was in order - very personal indeed! Will definitely come back next time. This is one of the best coffeeshops I've ever been to.

And to end the day.... or rather morning... drumroll.... I went to Mustafa Centre and bought my Mommy Nike speed ropes! For her to do her skipping!! Yeah my mum's into an exercise fad lately. She's been jogging around the house for ages (within the house I mean!!!!) - from her room around the dining table into my dad's study to the hall back into her room, round and round till she sweats and pants - it is about time she gets an upgrade to a more intense exercise!!!! Go Mommy Go!!!
