Thanks to MSN and daily blogs-stalking, i never worry not being updated by my coursemates regarding their internship. As a result, i tend to admire them for being able to attend glamorous events and meet the high-end people, which Resa gets to see my and her prime minister up-close and Ellyn gets to party more than usual and not forgetting Cheryl Ann Fernando's big name in NST. The poor me is always stuck facing this square-box pc playing around with Indesign or Excel. The farthest place i have ever been is to the clients' offices. Sad.
Well, something unusual blossomed in my stuck-facing-the-pc life yesterday. The appointment in the afternoon has been cancelled. Great. Again! Surf the net as usual. Fortunately, my Boss spied me as the free-est person in the office. So, he brought me out to meet a BIG friend. Its the USS Pinckney DG 91. No idea what it is? Its the 40th Burke-Class destroyer battle ship from San Diego. Yes. They launch missiles. They fight in wars. And yes. Its in KK.
This whole visit to a battle ship is like a dream come true. Commanders welcoming you on board. They are cute and young. All of them. Seriously. You'll want to drool onto their uniforms. The steep staircase. The Communications room. The Navigation room. Their dining room. All of them are so cool. Not forgetting the Chef who is a typical American Black. I have seen these in TV but not so up-close where I can even have a photo shoot of me driving the steering of this huge ship. Pictures are to be uploaded next time due to some technology complications though.
This visit pays everything off. I am satisfied and there is no need for me to envy my coursemates anymore. Thanks to my Boss who made my day once again.
Tokkok: My colleagues and I had KFC for lunch. Not forgetting the cockroach (Siu Keong) on our table which was eating with us too. It was reported on Monday, a girl in Japan got bitten by a rat at McDonald's. What is wrong with fast-food restaurants nowadays?!
