to go bangkok or not?
i really wanted a break after the event and was contemplating going there this weekend. It will be fun...with kai and alb transitting from Nepal this weekend, to catch up with Minli and Lian Teck (whom i have not seen since they moved to bkk)... yes, it will be fun.

but in the end, i decide not to. Partly cos a friend whom i promised to go for a holiday with after the event cannot make it. Partly bcos if i do go, i cannot take leave and it will only be for the weekend... very rush, not relaxing. I will end up feeling even more stressed and tired. *sigh* guess will endure and take a long 2 weeks break after communicasia in june.

guess what i will end up doing this weekend? haha, nursing a swollen right cheek :) going for wisdom tooth extraction on friday afternoon. Hopefully by monday, the swell will subside and i can go back office. I know i am dumb, to waste a perfect and legitimate 5-day MC over weekend, plus may not even utilise it on Mon and Tue. But i also feel responsible for my project. Afterall, it's a baby i work on since Aug, cant bear to see it not taking off.

oh well, dumb gal here going to bed and not think anymore...

yippee... FHA2004 is over... tho not really done with... tons of post-event stuff to do...

but this had been a great experience. The pride and joy of seeing the expo being "built-up" with the booths for the event, the visitors and exhibitors thronging thru the halls.

On a personal basis, the activities i am in charge of went well. Okie, wine challenge turned out fabulously well and i know my big bosses were very happy about it. I am definitely "seen" by the top guys. The wine classes went okie... could be better but my resources were tight and i was really up to my neck with logistics and i have "sacrificed" the 2nd event. But all went well. Was really proud of myself :) Now is meeting the high expectations set...

aiyah, the most annoying part was working with "spider" and "bear"... i mean, they really drove me up the wall with their arrogance and presumptious nature. I whined about them before the event, during the event and now, even after the event, they still haunt me...ARGHHHH. I now declare that they are so not worth my energy to talk about them anymore, i refuse to give them the "focus of my conversations" with friends.

another biggie event in 6 weeks. I am way behind on my schedule in terms of work done. Honestly, i am scared that this will not turn out well, it might turn out to be the biggest flop of the year... but B kept reminding me that itz mind over substance, dun give myself an excuse now to give up and not give my best. yah yah, i know but i am really physically zonked out leh...

things have been complicated for me... wish it is simpler for me...
