Not Your Ordinary Day-At-Work

When I got to work today, I was not even allowed into the office.

Apparently, someone on my floor was suspected to have the H1N1 virus so almost everyone was evacuated. Unfortunately, I was still recovering from fever/sore throat/cough so I was IMMEDIATELY told to go home. I guess since my immune system is weaker, the chances of me getting infected is high.

Sigh...So right now, I'm just lounging in Taipan's Old Taste kopitiam mindlessly surfing the Net. All I can say is it's a good thing I'm not one of those under Quarantine. Otherwise, I think I'll probably die of boredom at home. LOL

The Memory of Michael Jackson

I was on the way to work when I heard the news on the radio that the King of Pop – Michael Jackson had passed away.

Shocked was an understatement, stunned and disbelief were more like it.

I grew up listening to his songs (which I still listen to till this very day) including his hits from Jackson 5 to the classic Thriller and right up to the rocking Black or White. When I was younger, I had the whole dance scene from Thriller memorized and used to perform it to anyone who was willing to watch (which was pretty much my family..hehe).

Regardless of the craziness that surrounded his personal life, he was undeniably one of the greatest music icons in the world. To know that he is no longer around to entertain and inspire, is simply devastating.

Rest in peace Michael – We miss you.
