What a Shocker!

The Walking Dead Season 7 is back tonight. The last season left off with a cliffhanger. We all know someone is going to die. But what happened tonight is a real shocker!! :O Instead of just one death, there were two and it was who was killed... Life is never going to be the same again. 
Wondering how to break the news to my mother who is now in Xiamen and couldn't catch up on the tv series. I bet she didn't see it coming.

In Shock!

At first, I thought it was a really, really cruel and sick joke that the media has pulled about one of the stars in Glee being dead. Started Googling and found more and more news of his death. 
OMG! I am totally in shock!! Cory Monteith (who played Finn Hudson in Glee) has passed away! He was so young! SIGH. Rest in Peace, Cory (Finn). I will definitely miss you in Glee. :(

"Wise" Words?!

I am attending a two day English Language Institute of Singapore conference organised by MOE at Marina Bay Sands. Pretty exciting as it is the first time I am stepping foot at MBS. :) Must have a good look around. For personal reasons, I will never willingly step foot at MBS or Sentosa Resort World.

I enjoyed the keynote and one of the paper presenations very much. Really made lots of sense. However when it came to the launch of ELIS, what a certain "whose-name-cannot-be named-and-still-held-in-awe/fear-by-the-current-government-and-politicians" said, had my jaws dropping to the floor. Literally! When he said that American English would be the way to go for the future because America is a big power, and it is a big economy, I could hear the waves of murmuring of disbelief spreading across the ballroom like a tsunami. Ok, maybe I exaggerated a bit but it was disbelief all over the place. Sigh. He has a great mind but I think it is time that he retires in peace...

Ripples in the "Pond"

Although I am clearing leave, I had to step into office today to collect an important document. Couldn't delay it any longer so I went into office after meeting up with a good friend for lunch.

Usually, my working clothes and casual clothes are a little different - working clothes are prim and proper while casual clothes are, well, casual and not so prim and proper. Lol. I like the variety, don't think I can stand it if I wear prim and proper all 7 days. Hahaha. Since I am on leave, I didn't think twice about wearing my casual clothes into office to just collect a document.

I guess I was a little wicked and playful today but little did I expect to cause ripples in the "pond"(office) with my outfit! :P Well, I wore a spaghetti strap dress. The first gasp was from the senior officer who said I look very nice. She added that I will be distracting people if I wear like this to work. LOL. Thanks for the compliment. As I met more colleagues, I received more compliments. Two even said I look sexy. Hahaha. Thanks!

I think I surprised/ shocked a lot of people today. I showed them a side of me that they didn't know existed, other than the "work" me. Well, it has certainly been fun and interesting to see their reactions. Lol. Yes, I can be playful at times. I like to throw people off their feet by saying or doing certain things (within reasonable limits, of course :P). Hahaha. Doesn't it just make life all the more interesting?? LOL. I certainly think so!
