I had my company annual dinner last night at Shangri-La and my gawd, was it an eye opener! First of all, the theme was 'Bedtime Wonder' which is a fairly open-ended yet quite suggestive theme. I was actually quite surprised that they chose this theme considering the organisation but gosh, the people here are darn 'sporting'!
The event had beds and pillows on the stage and the foyer. The shows included girls in really skimpy lingerie prancing and dancing, and the host was just hilariously naughty! Some of my colleagues went in their sarong's and nothing else (no top even) and there was a point where the performing girls 'went down' on the guys on stage in an act. For a moment, I thought I was in Bangkok instead of KL!
Everyone had a lot of fun and the energy was high! Everyone didn't care about hierarchy as much and bosses mingled and buddied for photos and laughs throughout the night!
4 people in my department won best dressed awards in 3 categories. In the 'Young & Outrageous' category, both male and female were won by colleagues in my department, the guy in nothing but a bedsheet and the girl in pink boxers and a white men's shirt. In the 'Romance' category, a guy in my department won for his blue satin pyjamas that oozed 5-star luxury! And in the 'Out of This World' category, I WON! Woohoo! :) I wore a Spongebob t-shirt, Spongebob boxers (yes, boxers) and Spongebob slippers while carrying my stuffed Spongebob. It was great fun :)

Stuffed
The past week has seen all the gym effort go down the drain! I had workshops and training and it all inevitably ends up with great buffet lunches and endlessly sumptuous breaks and breakfasts!
It started last Saturday with a hi-tea at The Summit. Was invited to the VIP table (thanks to ex-colleagues) so had a pretty good meal including ice kacang!
Monday and Tuesday was at Maya Hotel, an amazing boutique hotel right opposite Zouk that I would recommend to everyone! The aesthetics is right up there and the food, my gawd! The quality is incredible and the choices will leave you literally breathless if you want to go try everything. But the best part of all is the dessert spread which includes Movenpick ice-cream... deliciously sinfully orgasmic (quoting the words of my colleague).
Then on Thursday, it was a remarkably classy buffet lunch at Mandarin Oriental. The spread is just so good and the service is top notch! It was a sumptuous and no one could work once we were back at the office.
Finally today (Saturday), it's another day long spread but this time at Hyatt Saujana. The landscaping and scenery is gorgeous and the food, not as great but good nevertheless.
I'm stuffed... and I'm off to Melaka from Monday to Wednesday so it's more buffets! Gosh...

Home Improvement
It's been a crazy month but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel! Work on the house is reaching the end and I can't be more thankful. Been going crazy with shenanigans of odd-job workers and my gawd, everything costs serious money.
Anyways, here's a sneak peek before furniture comes in :)
The Kitchen!
The Hall
The 1st Floor
Doors to the rooms
The Master Bedroom

Taggerama!
I have been tagged and to continue the honor of this game, I have tagged six people which can be found at the bottom of my list. The rules are as follows: Each person who gets tagged needs to write a blog post of their own 6 idiosyncrasies (abnormal behaviour, habits etc.) as well as clearly stating this rule. After you state your 6 weirdness you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their multiply id / blog names / nicknames at the bottom of your blog. Don’t forget to leave a comment that says "You’re tagged" in their comments and tell them to read your blog for information as to what it means."

1. I need to sleep with 3 pillows. One for my head, one to hug, and one to rest my feet on.
2. I carry a torchlight wherever I go. One for every keychain, three in my car, two beside my bed, and a few all over my house. I am not really afraid of the dark but I feel secure having them!
3. I get grumpy when my hair is long. So I get a hair cut about once every 3-4 weeks.
4. I sit/stand at almost the same place every morning and evening on the LRT. Routine comforts me :)
5. If ASTRO or Streamyx is down, I don't know what to do.
6. I go speed crazy on the highway but I am usually so rule abiding I have personal conflicts about parking in a non-designated parking space.
Phew... that's over. But not before I tag YOU!
