all work and no play makes hobbit a boring species.

I suspect my friend in UK is a relative of my dear boss in k.p.k. Both from HK and both are Singaporeans... so if i found out that its the truth, maybe i can go strike a decent conversation with my boss about his... well, relative. how i had to endure his nonsense in UK for 4 months... haha but always nice and kind to let me into his flat to let me use the washing machine for free (read: washing cost 1.40pounds for 1 wash @ my flat).

Anyway weekends was great! Playtime started on Friday, where we went to our "OTHER ENGINEER FRIEND"'s house because he's pretty dexterous with his pots and pans... and whipped a nice meal for us. His name is Richy btw, and married and soon to have kids (right?).

Well, to cut a long story short, we went KTV and it was a pretty and impressive place but i guess it wasn't the best we have seen...

And today, we went to climb up the famous Fragrance Hills 香山... guided by a fellow colleague who's local, her little sister... they made our trip really enjoyable because i think the 2 sisters are quite hilarious when they are together. and the relationship they share with each other is something you'll go awwwwww... because they have the same dad and different moms, but they are just as close and the elder sister always takes care of the other... and my heart always warms up when i hear the lil one go "姐~!"

Well, we climbed up 2136 steps and it boy, i hoped it burned some of the fats i got from 回锅肉 and 肥羊肉... and Jiahui took lots of pictures, like tons i guess...

Anyway, where work is concerned, i'm still NOT done with it after being on it for 4 days. it really sucks when i can't finish it by my intended deadline... not so much on how i should account to my team leader but rather i just don't understand how i could have been so slow and always spotting discrepencies in my work. but jiahui always tell me, we have to make mistakes to learn. i thought it was extremely assuring and i really needed that at that moment.

Jiahui if u r reading this, here are the pros and cons about your work. Pros: your chinese will improve by leaps and bounds, revisit measurements and have all the time in the world to blog. Cons : Eventual death. So, it sounds good right?

Ok, i really don't have the time to post pictures... if u guys want a detailed narrative of our stay in Beijing, be referred to jiahui's blog :
