I divide my life into pre-report launch and post-report launch. No points for guessing which is my favourite time, but this weekend has seen my life return to some semblance of normalcy, one which I hope to extend through for the next week or so.
Had brekkie at a nice French-inspired place called Levain near Noble House (gulp! my 1st time moving out of my foodie comfort zone in months!), watched a movie (lordy, that's been long due!), had drinks with old friends in Ecoba (oh my god, nightlife!) had a leisurely dinner with my mum in Akari (favourite Jap haunt near my house in Solaris Mont Kiara)... Well I had to drive to freaking Puchong to attend a pre-launch of a set of semi-d's by IJM Land for work but still quite nice poking around show units than groaning at home over an Excel model or a blank Word document.
11pm before Monday, and I refuse to check my work email. I might have to pay for it tomorrow, but at least there's the gym session to get all the issues and any arising frustrations out.
9 more weeks to the end of 2010, and there's been alot to show for this. So much so I think I can afford to slow down the gears a little - mayhaps I will be working only 4 weeks more in November to put all the plans in place for what appears to be a one-month long sojourn starting from the conference in Tokyo end of Nov.
Konichiwa all types of sake and Tsukiji market - great start to the end of the year!
Then its a whirlwind marketing trip to HKG and SIN where I can try to locate the nice porridge shop down Hong Kong's Stanley Street and head back for a nice dinner at Nobu, soak in my favourite bathtub (yes i have a favourite bathtub) at my love you long time Ritz Carlton in Singapore, and then its off to hunting down a Goyard store in Paris, strolling along the Bahnhofstrasse in Zurich, queuing up for the Boxing Day sale outside Harrods and watching Andrew Lloyd Webber's sequel to the Phantom of the Opera called "Love Never Dies" in London's Adelphi theatre.
My winter coats and scarves are all raring to go, and so is my exhausted little butt.

On a quieter note, I thought of somebody this weekend, and I really really miss this person. I wish we could have had more time together, but I guess it is what it is.
