My weekend: extremely exhausted but smiling

I'm exhausted.  By the time I reached my 2nd student today, I was honestly feeling the physical strain throughout my whole body.

Guess it's the accumulation of not sleeping well for the entire week, and also due to work load.

Boss is hospitalised due to dengue and this means that the launch tomorrow entirely falls onto my lap. 

Friday:
Packed all the show packs, made parteh hats and prepared the games all by myself on Friday night. 

Oh, and SC was really very sweet.  She knew I was hoping to get anyone who was going down for dinner to 顺便buy me some bites.  And she offered to do so - even though she was not getting any food herself; meaning, she really just went down to buy dinner for me!  And she made sure I had my dinner before she left for the day. 

I honestly thought that was very sweet.  =)

And it's weird.  Usually, the colleagues from Asset Management and Valuation would stay till wee hours, but not that night.  By about 9 pm, everyone was gone for the weekend. 

And I only had the ear-piercing vrrooom of the F1 car engines downstairs to accompany me.

Bloss and D sms-ed me every now and then through the night to check on me. And AW kept me company via msn too.  And I honestly thought those gestures were very sweet. 

I love my friends.

Saturday:
Went for brunch with YX.  Supposed to give him a belated birthday treat but he ended up paying. Oops.  He told me that I can treat him to Si Chuan Dou Hua the next time.  Wah rau...

I'm lucky that he drove me to some industrial estate near Bendemeer to pick up my costumes needed for the launch, and had wanted to drive me back to office.  But he was already running very late for his next appointment, so I insisted that I could make my way back to office myself. 

Thereafter, I went shopping for the launch gifts at Raffles City.  And it was a surprise to hear from Bloss who checked on me again! 

And at the very moment when I thought I was breaking down very soon -- with the heavy things I was lugging with me and my arms were breaking + the thought of the things waiting for me in the Boardroom and it was already 430 pm. 

Ahhh... My bestie. :)  Telepathy always works for us.  So schweet. 

And she sms-ed me again at 730 pm to make sure I was not still trying to work out my circus.  Her sms made me laugh out loud.  It's a carnival, my dear.  Not circus!! Bleah!

He also msg-ed me after his game session to ask where I was.  Was 80 per cent expecting that he would tell me the same old thing again - that he feels tired and nua after his game and not meet me.  So, it was nice when he called to tell me to stay put and that he would come to meet me for dinner. 

And on our way back, he passed me one whole tube of Vitamin C and asked me to make sure I pop some the next day, and to get some rest too.  He said I better build up my immunity system with loads of Vitamin C now, especially when I am so susceptible to coughs.  Ahhh.... That was honestly quite unexpected.  =)

Sunday:
Had a bump on my head after knocking into a cupboard door above my head at my student's house. Went to nap after I reached home from tuition.   Woke up with swollen eyes and aching body.

Honest.  The aches.  I need a massage now. Shucks. 

Msg my boss to tell her that for some reason, I'm having cold feet.  And she replied saying that I have emcee-ed at countless weddings, in front of 300 guests.  Tomorrow's show should be chicken feet to me, since it is only to 150 pax.  Win lor...

And at a time like this when I should be trying to memorise my script for tomorrow and to run through the entire logistics in my mind, I am blogging instead.  And honestly, I also don't know if there is any flow in this entry.

Oh well, I think I better go look at my script now and then go to bed.

It's 6 am at the office tomorrow.   And like what my boss told me, it's show time tomorrow!
