November - Rain, Heat and Fun

November has crept in silently, I am pinching myself hard to believe that it really has. With the temperatures soaring high, and recurring rains, no sane soul who has enjoyed four seasons would believe that. The truth is I hate it. I want to see winter. I want to sleep on Sundays in my warm quilt. I want my Mommy to give me that strong ginger tea. Phew...lemme slap myself back to the Singaporean reality. It's summertime here in the beautiful month of November.

Saw my sideburned boss at his best today. Always thought he was low in the balls department. Lo, he proved me and the entire team wrong. To one of our clients, which is more like a sick rabbies-stricken dog that needed to be shot dead, he did exactly that! With complete conviction, on the square table, he banged his right hand and sprouted those golden words, most of which you and I would only sound to our inner selves silently in most closed door meetings.

"We have had enough, we put our foot down....you dont like us....well, mate, we dont like you either!". Superlative performance it was, and I am going to relive this exhilaration throughout this weekend.

Among other things, US elections kept me entertained as well. Singapore , like a true blue asian dot (read country) did not miss a single frame of the footage from ABC and CNN.

One thing is sure, only America can provide wholesome entertainment to the entire world. We will be entertained by the same clown for another four years. It will be fun!

Oh by the way, I also watched a mixed collection of films this week, Cellular, Along Came Polly, and SharkTale and Pacific Heights. Hope the next week will be so much fun too.
