Anyway, i might go apply for the Billy Bomber's job tomorrow. Nowadays, it's either shoppin, the computer or cooking. I'm becoming more like a modern tai-tai, minus the expensive high teas and mahjong sessions. Today, it's headache over who to get to write the appraisals, luckily i got Mr V to agree. Now waiting for Mr Chan's and Reshma's answer..
