I can be so lucky... lucky lucky lucky!

Apparently, someone out there decided to make it up to me for all the years of luckless-ness with lucky draws & such.

It seems that I do have a penchant for winning some really smashin' prizes in the first year D&D of the company which I joined.

At Asahi, I still remembered winning the iPod video & $500 worth of shopping vouchers from takashimaya & robinson's, along with the envy of green-eyed colleagues.

Now in Canon, it looks like the winning ways still continue. Barely a month into the job, I had already won for myself the 8th prize - a 32" Hitachi LCD TV at the company's annual D&D held at Suntec Convention Centre.

The theme of the night was "Olympics fever" & it was simple enough for me to just wear my sunday soccer attire. No need to spend unnecessary money on renting costumes. Being relatively new & considering the fact I was placed in a table with so many unfamiliar faces, I got lost & uninterested naturally. I swear to God I had so wanted to go off halfway and meet the gf, but something... something just made me glue my ass to the seat & wait for the lucky draw.

Needless to say, the wait was well worth it. I left home a very happy man... and a spanking new LCD TV. :D

Doong & Charmaine's Solemnization

So the man has finally did it (after ah hui beat him at his own game)... the first in our clique to get hitched... I tell ya, Doong ah pui has been waiting for the longest time. He's the family man among the family man... even before getting engaged to his sweetheart.

From playing gay barbie dolls in primary school to wearing fashion disastrous clothings till this very day, this man has been there & done that. Not many can honestly admit to that.

At a time when we kids like to sweat it out by playing basketball, he prefers putting on makeup & a very gay looking bee costume to sing in a choir. Even when we are playing Genghis Khan, a turn based strategy PC war game, he prefers planning for a heir to his virtual throne rather than build up his army to rule the land. Actually, what I meant to say was, things can't get any gayer for him.

Now that he is happily engaged, fulfilling his life long dream since he had pubes, hehehehe... we shall look forward to the actual wedding dinner next year!

Actually wait... the fun has already climaxed, things can't get any funnier than that night when he was drunk so freakin' pissed. Of cos there were many stupid things & funny incidents, and there was a side of him we never saw in his drunken state. This guy can be damn funny aiighht!

Shall leave this group pic for memories' sake...
