A bizzare first day.. (17/12)

would barely describe my first day, which was exceedingly illustrious. Here's a list of things I had to do:

1. Arrive early and wait outside the office with other staff since someone forgot the office key.
2. Go shopping with a few colleagues for party packs for....
3. my department Head's surprise farewell party after work.
4. Free kajang satay (from KESAS) for lunch since the Aussie department counterpart head was here and the Head wanted them to try them..
5. Head into the department deputy head's office to hide the party stuff because the department Head was lurking unsuspiciously out of her room.
6. Sneak that stuff up with 2 girls to decorate the Staff activity room..
7. Blow balloons -_- & tie em up in bunches
8. Take group photos with a whole office I just met
9. Write a farewell message to the department Head I just met -_-
10. Play snooker for free in that activity room!
11. Free dinner, obviously from the event (which tasted pretty good)
12. Work OT
13. Received my Free shirt which is to be worn on my second day of work, Saturday - OPEN DAY (what the heck, I've barely grasped anything from today).
14. Board meeting which made me fall asleep (caught by colleague)

Whaddaya think, eventful?
