But after claiming monday's day off... I still have 18 days off-in-lieu to go.
One day off a week and it will still take me almost 5 months to clear.
I know it's not from pole... it must be when i pulled a chair outwards.. .. on friday. But I was too sloshed to notice until it really bloody hurt later.Originally posted by the Bear:heh.. how did that happen?
i get bruises sometimes mysteriously.. but then, it's not surprising.. i'm clumsy as all heck...
what about you? try to retrace your steps?

URGH..
Don't u just hate it when u dunno where it came from?
HHAHAAHAH The bowl got stuck!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH OMG!!!!Originally posted by the Bear:well, at least you know where yours came from
i know where my latest came from.. my middle finger's a bit bruised.. came from a bowling ball refusing to come off when delivering it
i think i'll get a deformed middle finger soon
what i wanna know is why sometimes there's a bump on my head.. when i've not hit anything

Next month I should be heading to phuket, riding up with the bikers for a holiday.
I need a holiday...
But let's look short term for now, what do I do for my day off??

This is too funny. I'm imagining you trying to throw the bloody thing onto the lane. HAHAHAHAHAAHAHHHAHA
OMG i cannot stop laughing.
U must hit yourself in your sleep or something.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm 2nd link to Hat Yai - 888kmOriginally posted by the Bear:sleep... or go use that D70 of yours
and wow.. how the heck are you going to get to phuket on a bike?
I've actually seen something like that. It was at Marina Bay's bowling alley. It had a luminous like... skull thingeee..Originally posted by the Bear:hey... it hurt!
but it happens occasionally.. i gotta go get a bowling ball of my own.. can't keep looking for light balls which my fingers can barely fit in...
what do you think?
a nice transparent ball with a skull in it?
it'll be freaky

FREAKOOOo.... Me no likey. HAHAH
Erm.. Bear.. them lighter balls are for girly girls. How many pounds are u after?
Waves wrists at bear..Originally posted by the Bear:i'm a girly girl
it's the technique i use... i need a light ball else i end up breaking my wrist and fingers
looking for a (ahem!) 9lb or 10lb ball
they're most effective when spinning
the logistics side didn't burn anything during the 7th month this year and lots of bad things have been happening.Originally posted by the Bear:ahh.. that's easy then... you guys will be there in 2 days
lazing is good.. i wish i had the luxury of that the rest of the day... in a while, going to go to office... they're doing a 7th month thing.. strange thing.. i'm catholic and i'm part of it
Originally posted by Lingos:Waves wrists at bear..
OMG girl.... even erm.. i use a 10lb ball.
No doubt it gets stuck. ahahahah![]()
HAHAH better than breaking your fingers i'd say.Originally posted by the Bear:muahahahaha
i'm the butt of jokes when i go bowling at the office league
but then, i'm the only one there spinning the ball.. it's easy to heft a 13lb or 14lb ball with brute force but i find spinning the ball a lot more fun
the ball spins like a top all the way to the pins..
and if i did that with my usual heavy cannonballs which i used to throw, i'd break something

Yes.... a little 9lb would be great for bear. HAHAHA sorry bear.. but what a sight.. I'm imagining it now.
Well we used to do it every year, but this year I don't know why it was skipped.Originally posted by the Bear:none of them are taoists?
the guys are my office are very consistent when it comes to this.. big thing.. every year, there will be a big one..
Originally posted by kopiosatu:Well we used to do it every year, but this year I don't know why it was skipped.
And now a whole lot of sh|t is happening...And everytime something goes wrong i just tell my colleagues "7th month la"
Oh I just thought of a crazy idea, I was thinking... maybe I should find a penpal from .... Europe? Just for the fun of it! Wouldn't hurt to learn some new culture eh?

Gooood morning, all!Yea, I know, I'm rather early today
Anyway, just got a recipe over the email & thot I'd share it here, and esp. Bear may like it cos he's a pavlova fan! Dunno if you can get wattleseed over there tho... hmm
[b]Wattleseed Pavlova
The Wattleseed Pavlova is Vic CherikoffÂ’s flagship dish and has to be a contender for an Australian national dish. Even if the Kiwis simultaneously concocted the same sort of meringue mixture, the idea of serving it with wattleseed and in Swiss roll fashion instead of as a cow pat must put us in front.
7 egg whites
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon corn flour
1¼ cups castor sugar
300ml whipped cream
2 tablespoons Wattleseed extract
½ cup cereal or biscuit crumbs
strawberry jam
juice of 1 lemon
¼ teaspoon Fruit Spice
