House Warming and Other Stuff

Went to Swee Yee + Sijia's + Zjun's house yesterday to warm it up with human presence. Zjun wasn't around because she went for overseas training. They cooked us a nice dinner (which I suddenly recall we didn't pay for, opps). I think it was my first 'Coca-Cola Chicken' experience, thanks to Sijia. We talked a lot, and came home late. Still it was worth it catching up with Swee Yee, Sijia, Zhi Qi, Shu Ying, and Lee Hoong (who kept saying the wrong things).

It took a long one hour plus trip to get there and another to return. But Jerome, Jon and I were playing a silly game on the MRT so I was practically laughing all the way back. It's something that goes like 'Ways to Get a Seat on MRT' or other silly topics like that and each of us have to give one solution till we run out of ideas.

We had a nice afternoon after-church outing in BV eating chicken rice too, which ended with us playing Board Games at our place (JonT, JonC, Gid, WM, and myself). I love our place becoming some board game hub now! Hopefully I still have time for that when I'm on shifts.

Going home is going to be a bit tricky now bus return tickets are sold out. Will have to look for other bus companies for alternatives.

And today I'm the only new staff in my lab without a user id. Reason being I was an intern before this and the US IT branch wants reasons on why my account was deactivated earlier. Sigh. I do dislike these forms of business communications.
