going to dump work related photos tomorrow
cos i'm too tired now

left bed at 11am
took me until 4pm to finish my chores
stupid big house, remind self not to get big house unless you have robot to clean it
laundered, washed mocdog, laundered, vacuumed, mopped, cleaned up clutter, washed the bathroom, sorted mail, washed dishes, meh-ed.
parents back on monday, whootwhoot. so that means i don't have to clean the toilet anymore.
score!

went to charity's house for dinner
her husband's so nice
we played angry birds and drank bird while we waited for bob and vinnci
then when they finally did arrive
we ate for 3 hours.
lol.
sashimi and korean bbq. so so so spoiled <3
me and bob bickered for 2.5 hours while charity scolded us like little children.
just like at work. i think their significant others were...very amused.
then when we were all full we sat down to watch some david attenborough
while we drank traditional tea and ate fruit
i ate like...half a watermelon.
had a domesticated night. 'twas awesome because my workmates are awesome.

so spoiled.
they both checked to see if i got home alright.
feel so loved.

donna.

was going to write individual thank you cards. 

but now i can't be stuffed. 

T_T

donna.

intense yawnage.
shall elaborate at a later date but for now:

chicken salad for lunch, but forgot chicken so it became kfc chicken salad because charity loves me.

org orientation day: 10am - 3:30pm

should have caffienated. 

bathed in the newness of my phD desk. 

catch up at HY's house where i tried to nap and failed because of ill-timed caffiene hit

dinner at the japanese place on top of captital square

5 girls, $210. so broke.

the number of stamps needed to send off an application. 

donna.

i feel i must appreciate the fork. 

it is quite the fabulous utensil. 

i'm eating a salad right now and had a whole egg off to the side. 

aside from using the fork as a fork, it suddenly came upon me that i can also use it as a knife to cut the egg up into smaller morsels. 

on closer reflection, i also realise that i could also use it as a spoon if i so wished.

wow. 

donna.

let's see how much i can say with a rectangular box:

shot with 24mm/1:2.8
a.k.a. cherry's dad's lens :)

donna.

so bored right now.
there's stuff i could do...technically...
hmm...yeah. not going to do it.

second last week of work.
i'm crying a thousand tears.
some of the girls have a business trip next week
so the office surprised me with a farewell cake a week in advance
seriously...evil.

also seriously can not get over how fortunate i've been the past few years to have such awesome workmates. <3
will be redundantly repeating this sentence over the course of the next week. 

anyway, this week was littlebro's 17th birthday
got him the smallest birthday cake ever.
lol.

then because isaac celebrated his birthday dinner with his friends
we ended up making up for it the next night by deciding to go to city for dinner
throughout the 17th Feb, I kept thinking wouldn't it be funny if i bump into twin at takeru 
(since it's our default dinner spot whenever we're in the city)
after we parked the car, me and isaac walked towards takeru
and looooooooooooooooooooool forever, twin, joe cheung, gay eric, jane kwan, winnie kwan and basically, the entire church were there
me and twin hugged like one of us had been lost at war and then we kind of stood in opposite directions for a good 15 minutes while we waited for seats since i was with my little bro
AWKWARD TURTLE.
anyway, dinner was awesome as usual.
love talking about things with my little bro <3

then we decided to go get passionflower, so we said goodbye to the church people and walked on over
turns out they didn't accept card and i couldn't afford it with my $10 dollah so we left, and i decided make isaac walk with me to meet fresh for asian dessert
seeing as we were supposed to eat tong yuen anyway
as we walked down the street, i asked him wouldn't it be funny if we bumped into them again?
lo and behold, as we turned the corner, i very clearly saw joe cheung and gay eric lining up
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
anyway, in the end, we decided to takeout and drive home
all in all, a lovely night :)

then today at work, charity was going to drive me to lane cove to get lunch
that was the original plan seeing as stupid bob already went pepper lunch by himself yesterday
(he'd been nagging us all morning yesterday to go with him but i had to deal with the US shipment and charity had lunch, anyway...)
but as we were driving to lane cove, me and charity decided to go pepper lunch
we called bob to tell him to change his lunch order since we were going to chatswood instead
lol at him fully swearing at us.
gotta love chinatown <3

also, manager ordered 19 photobooks to commemorate 2010 and made us all sign them
my signature takes long time and hurts my wrists after about...five.
lol.

slightly less, but still bored.

donna.
