what a busy week!

MON: Finally took James out since he's been so lonely and sad living in the very happenin Clayton area (not!). It was also his first day at uni in Australia! So thought I'd take him out to have fun before he's bogged down with uni h/w! Took him to Mordialloc beach for him to see more of Melbourne. Then for Durian smoothie and viet food at Hoa Tran. He loved the smoothie olright. Told me it reminded him of Malaysia which he misses dearly! Then off to shopping at Coles at Brandon Park. The poor kid don't know what to buy. So I went around and taught him what to cook with the many kinds of ingredients you can buy in the supermarket. That was fun! Then went back to his place to help him unpack his groceries and dropped him off at his friend's house where he was sleeping overnight.

TUES: Was consumed with work! Didn't finish work until 7pm! Went home to just chill and watch TV (dancing with the stars! my fav reality program! watching it just inspires me to dance too!). Then at around 9pm, to my surprise (well not really, cos I had thought about him 2 days ago and once again, when I think about someone outta the blue, they will ring!) Nigel rang. Straight away I said 'I know why u rang, you're gonna tell me ur gonna be a daddy soon!' (cos I always pester him and Janelle on having babies since they just got married last year! He being the smartarse self, said 'no, I was going to tell you so and so is speaking in Citylife 2 wks from now. You should go.' I'm like.. oh I C.. .but was still questioning it.. then towards the end of our convo, he finally admitted it 'oh by the way, Janelle's expecting!' 'ARGHHHH! I was soooo happy for both of them!! To see them journey their r/ship firstly as just good bro and sis in Christ (friendship) , to lovers (courtship), to husband and wife (relationship), to soon to be mum and dad (parent-ship!).. It's awesome to watch them grow together always into the next level of their r/ship!

WED: Today at work, once again it has been crazy. All thanks to this Coles massive 27.3 promo. We're predicting that Coles will go out at $20 for TE & Regen! gosh that's full on below cost price!! And what's more.. they're ordering 8 times the amount now and asking for BINS instores too which, if u ever notice, skincare items more than $20 NEVER goes into a bin display due to theft! so u can imagine just how much stock they have for them to be forced to carry bins too! I'm blown away! So did a lot of forecast in Olay orders to ensure we don't wipe the entire product supply for South East Asia region as well! we have definitely shortened supply to critically low that's for sure!
Anyways, then tonight, I met up with Jen for her 26th birthday celebration! We went to a new Hongkie restaurant in Glen Waverley and had Claypot rice then to Pancake parlour for some Pancakes with boysenberry and vanilla ice-cream for dessert. It was yummy! Anyways, we caught up on her Japan trip. Man I was sooo envious of the snow festival that she went to in Hokkaido. Talked about work, friends, r/ships, plans, her goals for this new year of her life, etc. It's always fun to catch up with her. We talk about anything and everything and just spend literally HOURS talking!

THURS: tomorrow I will be spending half my working day doing stand & deliver (which is basically stocking up on our brands in Coles/Safeway/Bilo) . Will be going to Stud Park as well as Knox. Should be fun! Allison (who's around mid 40's, divorcee but now got a boyfriend) is so talkative. She talks to me about sex soooo openly. Sometimes, too much info if u ask me. Then the entire late arvo is preparing for 27.3 promo on how the execution bit PLUS my major presso next Thurs @Coles! PLUS meeting up with the ad agency on the design for the new Olay anti-sweeping unit (which is a unit to store Olay to prevent theft). We're testing it in 12 Coles Stores.
So much on, going to die man!

FRI: After working late, I will be doing absolutely nothing at home! I can't wait to just sleep!!

SAT: Church Leadership Meeting

SUN: Justina's wedding (from 11:30am - 11:30pm!) which is stressing me out big time as I'm the church coordinator and the girl has written me a 4-page itinerary from minute to minute of what needs to be done and how it should be done!!! and here I was thinking it should be easy peesy! Now it looks sooooo hard!

I wish this week was over.. but then again, next week will be worse! PLS STOP THE CLOCK SOMEBODY! If only stop or fast fwd was a button u can press in life..
