Today was the last day the whole Visual Merchandising Dept could get together for a farewell meal.. coz my last day would be on the 27th and Cedric would be flying off to Manchester on the 25th for a holiday. so after stock take wisma topman this morning, They (Dyson, Dawn & Cedric) invited me to lunch at The Simple Life together. It's located at Wheelock. I took this rare opportunity to take a group photo. heh ;) Dyson picked up the tab.. i felt pretty guilty coz i din get him a present cos i dun feel as close to him.. his role as the senior executive makes him our immediate superior thus earning the title of boss. Often it's the 3 of us(Cedric, Dawn & me) who're travelling and working together.. Nonetheless, i felt that if i get him a gift, it'll kinda de-value my gifts to dawn & cedric. coz i'm not that affluent enuff to give away gifts to every colleague. hope he doesn't get to noe abt the gifts i got dawn & cedric.. After lunch, Dyson split from us and we trio went to the concourse to source for some decoration for the miss selfridge window opening at marina square in march. it's some kinda vine of a certain kind of leaves. there.. many shops wholesales veri genuine looking flowers made of cloth or plastic.

Went to suntec city topshop and did some minor VM tasks there. just removing of some decor and then did some shopping at topman. we tried on some clothes. they kinda 'ordered' me to change into some clothes to let them see.. including a pink striped shirt at topman. they say i look nice in it.. but i didn't dare to buy it for fear of another adopting another white elephant in my wardrobe. cedric bought me this tee he chosed specially for me.. he must hv felt some form of guilt over my gift for him.. hehe.. Then we went army market and did some shopping. heh.. they were looking at converse shoes, tees and dawn was trying to find the army medical pouch. she had been so impressed and fascinated when cedric came to work one fine day carrying the medical pouch instead of his usual sling bag. Alas, we couldn't find a medical pouch which looked exactly like cedric's..

Cedric bought himself something which he had always wanted to get but couldn't find. it's a vintage old skool toy. the magic cube. and he is real good with it. impressing us over some drinks at the table.
