May 09

I got off from work earlier than the usual this aftrnoon. My sister phoned me to say my brother has an emergency meeting that time and asked me to fetch her at the mall where she bought a new mattress for my niece. On my way, to the mall, I passed by my newly wed friend Elaine, waiting for a taxi. So I pulled over to let her in. Good thing she’s also going to the mall. After meeting with my sister and fixing the things she bought inside the car, we went to have coffee together with Elaine. We had fun chatting and interviewing the newlywed. We got home just in time for dinner. I also learned from my sister that dad will be closing a deal with a real estate agent as soon as the environmental site assessment is given to him. The land premise still needs to be cleared from potential and existing soil and water contamination. The quality of ground water should also be checked and the possible improvements should be identified. The lot will become the site of our family’s new dwelling place. I am much exited to be involved in the designing of the new house. And finally my paintings will be taken out from the Art Storage and be displayed at our new home. I will also planning to buy architecture and interior design books to help decorate the interior of the house.

I think my email provider is not working anymore. I have not been receiving email messages ever since Sunday. It’s very surprising to have zero new emails in my inbox. It just feels weird because I receive about twenty to forty new emails everyday. The last two emails I received were the one from an advertisement about Collection Agency and a birthday reminder from my online reminder account. I wonder what happened with my account. Anyway maybe it will be back later. I leaved my desk and went to the refreshment shop to have my break and then my mobile rang it was my friend who works at an embassy asked me to drop by her office to have dinner with her. Since it’s my 1st time to go there, I really didn’t know what to expect. When I told the lady in the front desk, I was there for my friend and gave her name; she asked me what company I represent. I told her I was just visiting, with a big smile on my face. She gave me an ID exclusively for the 17th floor. When I got there, I was amazed to go through their very rigid security measures plus full systems monitoring. I was glad when I finally saw my friend who was waiting f0r me, the first thing that she said was congratulations for surviving the security! I told her she didn’t have to convince me about its being one of the best. After which, she toured me around their offices before we had our dinner together. Whew! It was a first of a kind experience!
