I'm tired, tired, tired and.............injured!

I have been feeling so tired and so sleepy lately, not surprising I have no "energy" to blog.

Been sleeping real late so not enough beauty sleep there...gotta replenish over this weekend, hopefully! One reason for the late nights I suspect is the very exciting and un-put-downable books I borrowed recently. Been reading quite a few Philip Margolin books and they are so gripping! I think I have rekindled my interest in legal thrillers. Criminal law has always been my interest since poly days. Probably if I had gone into that after I graduated, I would still be in the legal profession but well, things don't always go the way you want them to.

This morning while trying to run for the train, I sprained my ankle. It wasn't a full fall on the bum (THANK GOD!) but still feeling the effects now. Ankle starting to hurt a bit more as the day progresses. And it just takes longer to get to anywhere as I'm walking at about half my normal walking speed. ARrrrrghhh!

I would have taken the day off if not for the fact that my boss is also on medical leave and my department is down to 2, so not very responsible of me to take MC. And also, there is that Recreation Commitee dinner later at Bumbu so have to go for that. I was notified a while ago that our Rec Comm chairman has a very bad toothache and will be on MC for the rest of the day, meaning he's not going for the dinner. Another comm member also had problems with his leg/ankle and is also not going. Gosh....we better find a bomoh or something to do some prayers.....off to a very Suay start. This is the first function we are attending as the new Rec Comm and all these members are down. And chairman wants me to say something on his behalf if asked for a speech....what the f**k am I supposed to say?? And I'm so bloody soft-spoken, probably nobody will be able to hear me at all! Oh well, I'll probably say something like "Let's all eat!". Hahaa!

Shit! I hope my ankle gets well soon. The last time I sprained it, it took months to heal! I had to go to a sinseh to get it fixed!

Oh yeah, last Wed, Thur and Fri, I attended this workshop called The Art of Project Management. I was initially very reluctant to go because I have to go with my boss and also I have a lot of work to clear. But my boss insisted and well, no choice. In the end, I enjoyed the 3 days thoroughly and learnt a lot. Whether I will get to apply those skills in my job, I'm not sure but then, it was a good learning experience. The food not bad too.....hehe. Our lunches were buffets in Sheraton Tower's main cafe, had that the first 2 days. Oh, on the very first day at lunch, I was at the buffet table getting some salad and this disgusting Caucasian old man came up to me and chatted with me. I thought he was trying to be friendly so I sort of entertained him a little, then he suddenly asked me if I'm looking for a husband! I'm like.......what the fuck you wanna know for?! Then I said no and wanted to walk away then he continued talking, saying oh why not, am I too young or what. Then he looked at my plate with the salad and said oh, so you're on a diet, you don't have to be, you're perfect...oh god! And he gave me the once-over TWICE! I wanted to roll my eyes but my upbringing forces me to be polite. I just smiled and concentrated on getting my food. Finally he moved off.....gross! I'm not an SPG! And I don't think I look like one!!
