all hell broke loose on budget day

it's total chaos in the news room today.. and it's the first time that Budget Day is actually a big deal for me.. well not that i was in the heat of action cos i wasn't one of them that had to listen closely to the speech, or busy writing news scripts, or doing post-budget interviews.. just that i was around the heat and cos so many people were involved today, poor interns like us got displaced and had no desk to sit so was just wondering around the newsroom trying to look relevant..

and Mediacorp actually is quite good on welfare.. specially catered buffet dinner for the newsroom in view of how crazy it could get doing the budget.. whooo... so i hung around to get a share of the buffet even though technically i had nothing to do with all the budget flurry..

so how was everyone's Valentine's Day yesterday?

I would say this year V-day feels the most un-valentine's of all the valentine's day i've had.. i mean i've never really celebrated a v-day with any valentine but at least in school there's usu the friendship day thingy and people will be busy exchanging gifts.. and those angel and mortal games where you are more or less obliged to get each other something.. there is usu the hype there you see.. but this year there's really not that mood at all..

cos it's really just another day of work and i had so much work to complete cos of the impending CNY, was really numb by the end of the day and i still had to go to Chinatown to do a report on the CNY bazaar..

yes.. so i spent my valentine's day (or rather night) at Chinatown.. like i said, my beat is unofficially Chinatown!
