Wednesday Night

I met up Ms. S, who is working a few blocks away from mine after work at Secret Recipe. We had a big plan to be carried out on that evening. In order to make the plan a perfect one, first we need a cake (a good enough size to show our sincerity). Then we walked all the way to ORQ. Next, we need to seek an accomplice. He/she has to know our target and be able to lure her to the destinated area for the plan. Luckily, that accomplice happened to sms me on that day about my "hot date" for that evening (I shall go into the content of the sms later). Perfect! Not only can he act as my accomplice to lure my target out for the day, but he could also inform me the best place to carry out the plan. Well, that's how Ms. S and I ended up on the 22nd floor, waiting for our target. And "Tada!". We appeared in front of our target - Ms. J and brought her a cake. It's a pity she has to work on that day. However, I hope she likes the little surprise we had for her. I am sure she must be a little shocked that I appeared at her office after work to deliver a cake, since I was still chatting with her over sms that I had a dinner apppointment.

After "mission accomplished", I had to head to Forum to meet a "friend" working for a particular embassy in Singapore. I would classify him as a "friend" because we only met 4 times (excluding one time that I saw him from far but couldn't recall his name in time). I met this "friend' 3 years ago at his workplace (the embassy) for an interview. Back then, he has only just arrived in Singapore from the UK. It was only few months back, I bumped into him again at a gathering. That was when I realised he knows my colleagues (who are my mentors during my internship). He came for another gathering I organised recently, and we ended up chatting about FTAs (that's Free Trade Agreements if you have no idea what's the abbreviation about). He mentioned he will update me again on the status this week, so we met up at a coffee outlet yesterday. We ended up chatting about dual citizenship and religions. He certainly studies a lot into cultures. Very enriching indeed.

An interesting Wednesday night I had.

P.S. I was supposed to reveal a little about the content of the sms. Apparently, my "accomplice" thought I was going on a "hot date" with a guy from the embassy. He smsed me regarding the "hot date". Of course, I must say I probably disappoint him. As I mentioned to my "accomplice", I was only meeting that "friend" to discuss world issues (technically, FTAs, dual citizenship and religions). The sms my friend sent me next was even more funny - "u can turn world issues to family issues". Honestly, this is really hilarious. At least something I can laugh at when I looked at that sms.
