Home soon!

Just home after a late Christmas dinner with close frens Tana, Myriah and Boyan. Had a fabulous dinner at PUCK, nice wine, good food, good laughs and M&Ms.....ooh....WAS a really good dinner to wrap up this year. I think I will miss them all, even when i am back in Singapore. Tana will be in Germany, New York, Oklahama. Myriah, all over Portugal. Boyan in his ski hut in the Bulgarian Mounts. Me in hot, humid Singapore with too much to eat, too much to shop, too many movies to catch, too little time :)

There was an air of festivity as you walk the streets tonight, listening to Love Generation on your fiets, with a cool chill blowing, I felt like I had half-a Dutch Christmas this year. My first autumn/winter in Europe. Got a really huge FIP Santa Gift Pack from the Boss too!

*Back to reality* I have to clean my house, do last minute laundry, water the plants...hmm, wonder if it will survive....clean the toilet, sweep the floor....pack my bags!..OH...yeah, pack my lugguage...haha...almost forgot about it.

Wow, its 1am now. Better start taking out my luggage and stuff my clothes!

Planning to wake up at 6am, dump the clothes in the washer, go back to sleep, wake up at 7am, dump the clothes in the drier, go back to sleep, wake up 8am, pack last minute clothes. And get out of the house at 9am!

Wish me luck and safe travels for everyone heading home!

SQ323. Wait for me! I am checking in!!!

Wierd thoughts van de dag

Today I had a weird day. Was woken up by a fren to play WoW online. Played for 6hrs. Missed my train to Deflt for my gifts shopping plan. Slept till 6pm then. Ordered Chinese takeaway - as I have officially cleared my fridge in preparation for homecoming on friday. Wanted to study my Dutch, but ended up watching tv as they were showing something really interesting on Animal Planet. It was on SOS Fauna and how they were raiding illegal wildlife bird and animal poachers in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Saving the fauna by releasing them in the wild in the Amazon and Bahia environments.

There was a women in this organisation "Project Monkeys", who dedicated her life to saving Monkeys. Its really amazing how people can say that and walk the talk.

Have anyone of you ever thought of dedicating your life to a cause?

Leaving everything familiar for a cause to advance the pharmacy profession internationally has always been on my mind. For now, I still believed in it.

Perhaps its not a wierd day but weird thoughts. Pro-departure 4days Singapore.

Back to Dutch...

Sinterfeest in mijn kantoor!

Today is Sinterklass day - Dutch version of the Santa Claus! :) And best is, we still get the normaal Christmas holidays!! hehe

Well, everyone gets a half day off but the 3 of us met phil, decided to work! wow...hehe, hardworking FIP staff eh....not to forget I had to go have my lungs X-rayed for my regular 6 months TB check up in the morning. Hmm, apparently, they dun really believe that I do not have TB...haha...oh well.

Anyway, just at about 4pm, the sun came out finally and I had this craving for chicken wings by the reinkenstraat near the office. So, we decided its time for our very own Sinterfeest! hehe, bring on the bottles!
