UNITED BENETTON of COLORS

26 September, 2006 Sunday's and Monday's Events

Got up in the morning and went with my mum to my aunt's place in Simei. Did her computer for her,my aunt is using an old Dell GX1 PIII 400Mhz with 384MB Ram and I was shock to realise that she was running Windows 2000 Family Server License. I uninstall and installed Windows XP for her so that she could use it which will not take up more memory. The installation was pretty slow. During the installation Ken called me and ask me to go to Bugis.After installation, I met Ken at Bedok mrt station and we decided to go to Bugis as Ken wanted to do some shopping and get some stuffs for himself. We alighted at Lavender and decided to take a walk along the stretch of shop houses as I remembered once that Sheryl brought me here a long time ago to a costume place where we could rent costumes.We wanted to rent some costumes for halloween.So we went along the stretch and found the place,it was along Aliwal Street and there was a model of a Batmobile there. Too bad the place was close, it is open from Mondays to Saturdays till 5.30pm.

After that, we walked along the alleys of Kandahar Street, Muscat St, Bussorah St, Baghdad, Arab Street and all the way to Fraser Street where we came across The Embassy of Austria in Parkview Square, the building is so damn beautiful like the one in the movie Batman in Gotham City. Take a look at the pictures of the statures on display outside the garden:

After that we went into the building and we wanted to take more photos but was told by security that we are not allowed to take any photos at the embassy. So we walked down to Bugis and we talk about Parkview being the most beautiful and maybe the most expensive building in singapore. I would recommend the folks to take a walk here and it is connected to Bugis Mrt Station. At bugis, Ken bought some food tumblers, a track pants. Later after that we went to have dinner at Billy Bomber's. You would not believe what we had for dinner, we had a large plate of Ribs with some fries. The coke was also in a huge glass, my advice is not to drink too much coke as you will get full easily and you could not be able to finish ya dinner, on top of that you will also get a refill when you order and meal set. After dinner the meal was so filling, we headed down to the arcade to play some games. We had fun as a team fighting thru the mess and boy it was really fun. We enjoyed the day. We than decided to head back in the evening.

Monday when i came to work the place was change and we were shifted closer to Rachel, Dimas had to go to see a doctor in the afternoon and he did not bother to tell me that he was on MC. So I was left all alone to man the IT helpdesk. Rerx also came from MCL to be attach here for the next 3 days. As for Irwan, he had to go back for his reservist training and will be back in 2 weeks time. Ok I like it when it is quiter and there is no one to tell you things. The best part is that it is best to keep things to yourself in the place where you work as you will never know who the back stabbers are.But after hearing from certain people, I now will guard my own back and if need be, I will be hostile. Well to some people they might think they know everything but the best part is that they will not know what you are capable of when hostility strikes, its best to leave the lion alone and when the time comes, and the lion cant take it anymore that is when you will hear the roar.

Ok....I will pen off for now...will update more later in the evening.......Cheers and have a good Tuesday.
