An evening with colleagues

I have no UM classes today, my Networking class has been called off...
I spent my morning drowning over some source codes for my Thesis. Noon time, went to The Curve with my mom, sis and my Donkey. The Curve, a big place, very spacious and alot of place for people to walk... It has almost the same design as 1Utama and Ikano. Not all the shops are open yet though... But they still have christmas decorations there and all.
After The Curve, we headed to 1Utama. Had our tea there, Marks Asam Laksa, and headed to Jusco to get vivien's Hair Curl thing. Donkey had been very develish today... Hiding in the carpark waiting to scare me (when i tot he was missing), and poking and tickling me always. Bad bad donkey...
Anyway, when i got home about 5.30pm, i was indeed feeling rather tired, but still had to go teach music... I mixed up my timetable, that instead of 7.30pm, i tot my class was at 8pm, it was some miscommunication with my receptionist.
Anyway, after my class, I went and wish Melvyn Merry CHristmas, which ended up in a 15minutes chat with him until 9.30pm. At that time, bumped into Ms Yeoh and Ms tang outside along the corridor, they invited me out to Coffee Bean. I tot it was just gonna be a few of us... When i got myself to Coffee Bean, I saw James and another guy (violinist) there, was rather surprise that I was lost for words when i reached there, Moreover the place they sat was freezing cold so i was extremely speechless. Waited for the rest to arrive, Vicky was there, Carrey, Sandra and another 2 of Vicky's Violin student. It was quite an interesting night... Found out that the other guy with James is working as a programmer in IBM, and the other Violinist (who looked like st) is also a programmer in IBM (i think). Even found out that Margaret is in the hospital (for dunno what reason) and Ms Liew had a miscarriage! For a while there was some virus going around in SIM, that people were taking turns falling sick, Ms tang, ms yeoh, margaret, and now teh... I hope everyone is recovering for better now.... In short, it was quite an interesting evening. I've been in SIM for so many years, this is the first time I sit together with so many SIM'ers and chat over coffee. hahaha
Btw, this year, i didn't prepare any gift's for my students :p... But paiseh enuf, that my students got gift's for me.... This month I started on 2 new students, a girl and a boy... And this week, i received a little gift from BOTH of them... i feel like such a BADDDD teacher.. Somemore, Ms Yeoh gave us all Christmas Gifts. I've been in that school for so long, this is the first year i get treated by her for drinks and christmas gifts. It's really the thoughts which counts... And i always wanan be the one who GIVES, not RECEIVE. But this year, i RECEIVE wayyyyy more then I Give....
Festive mood is in the air........ everyone's in such a good mood planning where to go and what to do during Christmas... hahaha And i am planning on HOW to do Thesis DURING christmas. hahahahahahha Geez...about 1 month to complete my thesis.... I need a Miracle..
