mm retreat was alright. it wasn't like 'wham' or anything but i did learn a lil.. yeah. i dunno why i was so tired on the 3rd day. we had this solitude reflection time... during which i fell asleep after most of my reflection was done. haha. oh well. could feel the seh-ness during work. caffeine doesnt help me much :S

today we had training at commonwealth for the new espresso machine, the mastrena. it's really nice and sleek, efficient too. but it kinda takes out the fun of pulling a shot of espresso... i prefer the la marzocco. oh well. it will be all gone when i come in next wed ): tmr is my day seeing it in store. heh. met 2 other partners who is working/going to work in SB-US too. cos i've never had same shift with them before, so only know by name. 11 of us squeezed into cheng's van just now from the support centre all the way to yck mrt. my legs almost cramped up. haha.

leaving for japan in 2 days! i'm still trying to get used to hearing japanese. cos i keep watching korean drama. then when i try to think of certain simple phrases in jap, they come out in my head in korean :|

working 3-9 tmr!
