On with my rants… on 17th July, it was Digital DESIGN ‘06 anchor event at Civic Plaza… Preparations started at 8 am. I prepared the lanyards, insert all the cards, help with decorations, set up the prizes and all… Cos i am the Decor IC
haha… then the weather decided to foul up at last… it rained… real hard and all our stuff got soaked… our bags, goody bags were all soaked. and we managed to rescue them before anything was ruined… and then the weather got real real real HOT!!!
So hot… till we started to perspire profusely… and even the water wasn’t enough to cool us down… LoL… the performers came and rehearsed their stuff… and mine, some of them are really good… then i changed out into my t-shirt, with my own name! Cool~!!! and wearing of my lanyard…
Around 12.30 pm, the opening speech was commerced by the chairperson of the event… and the opening performance by a band was awesome… =)
People streamed in and out… taking goody bags with them… as well… as looking at our display showcase…
my mum and sister came too… whee…!! so happy… haha… then soon enough, The Guy and I broke away from the tent with our lunches, and decided to eat them under a huge tree while being seated on the bench… the moment we finished lunch, my mum and sis came, asking if i want to pass them my lil bag of clothes… haha…. why not? so i hand over to them, and received a phone call…
It was Patrick… he then asked where I were, and then moments later, saw the trio – Patrick, Shaun and Wei Jian! haha… sad that Michelle could not come… cos she is studying… You go girl!
Intro The Guy to them and vice versa, then I showed them around the area… and their remarks were: “So Hot!” LoL… wat to do… we din expect it to be this hot either… and then Shaun was really interested to buy a tablet… and he did though… moments later… =)
We went to macdonalds… I had a chocolate sundae… and they had their lunch… The Guy came over and joined us… we needed to cool down in the air con… later at about 2 plus… went over to help Listya’s friend mann a booth… was nt too bad… and I got to enjoy some apple soda…courtesy of another booth~!! yay! haha…
All too soon… I felt really unwell… but I hung in there… hoping it will go off on its own… then the VIPs came… was glad that the pple at Zaint could come down and grace the event too! hee…
After getting things settled… felt more awful… then staggered to Watson’s to grab some ice water… too lazy to go to cold storage… then i called The Guy, telling him, can’t make it. very unwell… The Guy rushed over… wearing a very worried look… He said I look a lil pale… which was nt a good sign at all…
I told him, I felt weak and dyhyrated… and he promptly bought rehydration salts for me… and then diluted it into water for me to drink… and then we went up… me helped by him… still feeling weak…
then he decided, that’s it. must go home… cos i haven slept for any bit for the last 24 hrs…
So off we went, and got a cab home… he was real sweet to keep a lookout for me… cos i wasnt feeling real good… aww… and we ta bao hor fun as well as san lao hor fun (fish) and then went up to my hse… had very poor appetite… and my legs were itching away like crazy… and ate a bowl of brown rice porridge… that felt so good to my stomach…
after dinner… we rested… and i felt somewhat better, but very drained… then shortly after he left my hse, i went for a long and warm shower and slept all the way till 1 pm the next day…
