work and cars
09-28-08just got back half hour ago from the f1 race
i stand by what i originally say/think, i.e. cars are for guys.
i know there a few exceptions, but mainly, cars are for guys.
and it’s such a guy thing to show off, if you know what i mean?
like… who stays in the office the longest.. who secures the most deals.. who gets drunk the most.. who has the best drunk story to tell.. who has the longest you-know-what..
and guys like to boast abt it. they really do.
anyway since it was my first time at f1 i really didn’t know what to expect. but it’s SUPER DUPER noisy. well… from our place, we couldn’t really see the cars zoom past, but we had a good view of the right side of the car leaving the pit to go onto the race track.
i kept hearing this “telephone ring” sound. i really am curious as to what it is. shall go wiki “grand prix” when i’m more awake.
it was a good experience for me. but it just stops there. don’t think i’ll do it again. just no interest in cars!!! probably give up my ticket to someone who can really appreciate it. just good to experience it live. so grateful to I for the earplugs. phew!
it’s funny how they want to give clients a good time, but it’s always guy things like cars and beer. well… angmoh things maybe? i do have the asian flush, so beer is a nicht so gut Idee… i wonder if they will invite clients out for a shopping spree say, during the Great Singapore Sale? or buy tickets to watch musicals? or how many “nice dinners” can one have to realise it’s not all that special anyway.. it’s a funny industry huh…
i also kinda realise that corporate life is not all that glam as some ppl make it out to be. nonetheless it’s a new experience for me. why would one live life without experiencing new stuff anyway? =)
so glad for the reed-making session! now i can only make half a reed, and as T puts it, ….
“Which half? Right or left? =.=”"”"”"”" “
