LiFe is FuLL of excitement!!!!!!!

Ehloehloehlo my dearie frens.......finally.....fran is bACK!...
I Hhave toooo many things to blog that I dunno where to startt.....anyways just to blog on some major events in the past 3 weeks for now..

Reflecting back on the past 3 weeks...i realised..i have no time for myself!! (which explains this dead blog)
As all of u know...i went to HK 2 weeks back...and since then life has not stopped a single minute for me..

One thing at a time....firstly, HK!!
In HK...almost everday was work work worK!....latest record...3am........gosh..nearly beat my audit record, which was 4 am? Tt nite was pretty scary. Took a cab back to Ritz in the pouring rain at 3am. Cabby dropped me by the side road as he missed the turn to the entrance. N i had to brave thru the lightning thunderous rain to the entrace of Ritz. I expected someone to be at the door to greet me, but NO ONE as at the lobby at all. N the layout of Ritz is such that you have to enter the first floor, take a lift up to the 2nd floor and change lift to go up to the room. So well, not a single soul was in sight at the 1st and 2nd floor. N Ritz has a very quaint English feel to its decor (check out the pics below!)..so well, reminded me of some literature story where a girl enters a room all by herself on a stormy rainy early morning at 3 am and is greeeted by........Eekkks i rather not continue. Well Im still alive and kicking!

N when work was done, went around shopping and eating and simply enjoying HK! Went to a pub "Insomnia" in Lan Gui Fang too. Great band. SHould have seen the way the bassist slides his very 'unhumanly' fingers up the down the bass. So goood!! Great music gets me grooving! Comparing Singapore and HK, the Singapore nite life needs to be injected with more life and fun and atmosphere. Walking down LGF is just simply totally not the same as walking down Mohamad Sultan, a dead street....

Well, about the food, I think it's nice, but still, i wun be able to survive just eating HK food. I still love our Singapore very own food courts! With the greatest variety

I love HK! If ever i get an opportunity to be posted there, I will definitely grab it, provided, ahem Im still not settled down lah.haha ;)

ANywyas, overall the trip to HK was a great experience!! Especially the "Business Class" experience! HAd fun toggling with the seat buttons...the seat can go all the way down!!! N was served meals on plates!!....Sorry, please pardon my 'Sua gu ness", but this i really my Maiden business class trip!! N it was really nice to be sleeping on a huge comfy bed at Ritz!! =)

N when I was back from HK..it was really work work work day and nite and I squeeeeezed out whatever left over time there was to meet my frens. Really had no time to reflect and to think and to have some personal time cos when Im at home, I can only think of sleeping. This is really bad, which means my QT is not doing too well. PLEASE scold me and remind me ok dearies..... Alright some HK pics! (well...knowing me i have lotsa photos to share...but really too sleepy to upload everything I wanna share with u guys now..so just a few first!
