Glummy Bears

We had a urgent meeting today, all those who are on leave were called back.

A change of head commander, removing our pillar of strength away.

In that instance a big gloomy cloud casted over the whole meeting room. Can't speak for the others, but I was left speechless, heart went frozen, mind went blank the whole day. I'm unhappy!

Of course i am curious how the new leaders will re-organise the troops. But unlike someone, whom got excited with the idea that someone is coming on board. How can you even think of exchanging one for another? No sense of loyalty at all.

01.12.09

Went down to Orchard today to embrace the Christmas spirit. The Christmas Light Up started early this year on 7 Nov, as Singapore played host to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meetings.

Had a quick glance, and realised that the lightings along the Orchard Road, and the annual contest for the "Best Dressed Building" of the Orchard Road Malls were nothing fantastic at all. I guess the cutest will be the Snowman at Scotts Road junction. Left me wondering what impressions did the APEC Economic Leaders have, with such cheap, unglamourous, uncreative decorations?

Had dinner at Orchard Central, not much crowd on a Tuesday night, and most of the restaurants were barely filled up with patrons. Strolled over to Takashimaya, and as usual the huge boring Christmas tree is up.

By the time i walked over to Ion Orchard, I was dead beat, and my heels were killing me. Routinely check out some of the stores there, saw a couple of good choices for Christmas gifts. Overall, I'm disappointed with the lack of festive season. I should hit the malls soon for my Christmas shopping.
