I Should Be in Cebu

That's the thing about being cheapo. You take your chances too often and somewhere down the line, something has to give. There I was, my sleepy ass waiting for my seat to be confirmed, running all over the airport trying to tie all the loose ends together before taking off - only to be told that all of the passengers showed up.

But it's ok, some good came out of it, at least I managed to get some more work cleared before I go for my holiday (which I hope will be fun!). I managed to get some more last minute stuff. I don't feel so flustered and rushed. I get to spend one more day at home, seeing my family. (Sadly, I only recalled an hour ago that Zouk's Flea and Easy was held today. But nevermind.)


Crossing my fingers. X

Go Gene Go!

Hadn't been blogging for a while, because the recent blogworthy things of date were company-related, and hence, out of bounds. Nothing else of note took place in my boring little existence. Until yesterday!

Yes, our very own Eugene is in the running to become one of two winners of a brand new Subaru Impreza!

A bunch of us were there last night and again tonight to support him. After almost 36 hours in the competition, he's still going strong.


(Apologies for the grainy picture - camera isn't the best, and he is quite a distance away from the barricades.)

It's prolly raining in Orchard now though, so tonight'll be a tough night. We're hoping he'll stick around long enough for us to go down again tomorrow night! In the meantime, here're some shots for your enjoyment.




Caught off-guard: It's his slacker posture and good people-skills (i.e. keng gai power) that has gotten his this far.



Supportive and enthu friends YM and HX and the placard they made to cheer him on. Funny right?


JW holding up his message for all and sundry to see. Gene Gene was caught chatting up girl 263 from the adjacent car. This guy! Forever at it. (By the way, the whiteboard was my stroke of genius. Heheh.)

My boy's two faces: One at 2am, and one at 9pm. Hint: A night owl he certainly ain't.



Edit: Yep, Eugene didn't manage to bring back the car. He dropped out because his sleep-deprived mind started hallucinating and he started losing his reasoning powers. But he's ok now. And we're still proud of him! We had a great time!
