haven’t been blogging
Nearly a week has passed since I last blogged. Had been tied down with work now that the due date for presidential election is closing in. Everyone’s kinda jumpy lately, due to a series of unfortunate events within the department. So, I, being a part of the family, wasn’t taking all this too easy, and seriously making every effort to ensure that murphy’s theory doesn’t materialise.

Didn’t have much of a weekend lately. Due to the National Day event, which saw 3 National education shows even before the preview as well as the actual thing, I have been spending quite a good portion of my weekends in town. Yeah, right in the heart of the city within the citilink underpass. By the time I reached home, its usually time for bed and waking up to a late sunday doesn’t help alleviate the situation much. Soon, it would be time for my aikido class and well, that’s about it for this few weekends so far. Sounds pretty boring isn’t it? It sure is.

Not many blog worthy events took place over the last week anyway. Though, thanks to my new Civil Service Card, which in itself has a tapz card function, like our ezlink card. It has somehow conflicted with my ezlink card which has actually resulted in quite an embarrased situation for me when I took the bus to work the other day. Shan’t repeat it again, as it seriously wasn’t too great an incident for me.

For now…here’s some jokes which most of you would have read before. But since I have nothing much to contribute for the moment. I guess, this should suffice. 
Cheers and may all who read this blog have a good week ahead! Ganbatte!
