Come and go...

My manager is back, so glad! Dont have to slog till 8pm everyday. :)

Just got the news that my Commander is leaving next year. He broke the news after our monthly meeting. Abit early, but i guess he is getting us prepared.

Feel a wave of sadness, not that I am very close to him... Its just that he is my first BIG BOSS, someone whom I respect and feel so out of reach. Someone whom I will tremble when I talk to or enter his room to report on a case.
I still remember I had to take his car to attend a meeting at "the island" the other time, was really cracking my brain on what to talk about. He is really a man of few words.....

Most likely we will organize a farewell party for him. He is LEAVING the service, not posted out. So I guess farewell also cant be too shabby..

People really come and go.

amazingly, it won me over...

I was never a fan for bubble tea. Sweet talk, Each a cup etc. I never patronize bubble tea shop more than 10 times a year.

BUTTTTTTT, it will never be the same after i was introduced to KOI by Sarah (i think). She was telling me that I must try KOI's Hazelnut Milk Tea. 50% sugar will be sufficient.

I had doubts about it initially, and was wondering how nice can bubble tea be? Must be some other sugar-laden drink.

I WAS WRONG. I GOT ADDICTED AFTER I HAD A SIP.
The caramel/hazelnut aroma was dancing and bouncing in my mouth. The after taste was superb! I like the fact that the tea is very smooth and it doesnt taste syrup-y. hope you get what i mean.

I HAVE GONE CRAZY over this cup of bubble tea!
You cant believe it, I travelled all the way to Clementi to get a cup because i was feeling low.
It perked me up instantly
