Tatz where my nite mare starts. Streams of emails flooded my inbox with error reports. Sms Derrick to go apt for his flt when I discovered tat KrisCheck is also affected. My turn to be surprise when he replied back.

Almost thought i had lost my OG card when i cant find it. Went back to check with the last cashier who claimed tat she had returned it to me. Asked Reena to help me renew Linda's card and apply one for mum while i run up and down the place to look for my card. Recvd call frm them when i did a final check among my things. Ended up i'm right 2 say tat the C28 cashier gal 4gotten to return it to me after my earlier payment.
Bought quite a number of stuffs which included 2 bedsheet sets, 2 bolster covers, 1 black blouse frm Dorothy Perkins, 1 lunch box, more panties n small perfume scent - True Love.

Once upon a time, a man in a hot air balloon realized that he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted. "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The woman below replied. "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 50 and 51 degrees north latitude and between 114 and 115 degrees west longitude."
"You must be an engineer," said the balloonist.
"I am," replied the woman. "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I've no idea what to make use of your information. The fact is, I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything, you've delayed my trip."
The woman below responded, "You must be in management."
"I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?"
"Well," said the woman, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is, you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, you've managed to make it my fault!!"
How True~~~

Took cab to CCB for meeting during late afternoon. The sun and heat was so bloody scorching. Felt myself melting under the sun. Waited for quite some time for the cab even though had called to book one earlier.
After meeting, went to Orchard Rd alone coz Adel unable to make it last minute as her princess fell. Arranged to meet sh 4 dinner while on the train.
Bought 2 thermos pot, a Dorothy Perkins blouse and some very personal stuffs. Can't get mum for her I/C nbr to join OG membership. Ended up called LK for her details. Best part was mum called when i almost reached Cineleisure.
Ate at usual place first. Sh dear joined us later. Left for home after makan while they proceed to PS. Took bus 36 and change 34 at T2. Thought it would be faster this way after looking at the 518 waiting time. God knows, the whole journey took me almost 2hrs. So fxxkg drained out.
At least smthg nice happened today. That is 尊 updated his blog.

【演员】:
方织田.... 周渝民 饰演
常百惠.... 侯佩岑 饰演
何马扬.... 柯有纶 饰演
任可欣.... 赖雅妍 饰演
好吃的料理=50%高贵的食材+50%精湛的手艺??
唯有以真心的温暖为佐料,佐以陷入热恋的心情,
在人与人的冷漠之间,
才能营造出一次次100%令人温暖又幸福的「美味关係」。
燻烤伊势龙虾、蛋包奶汁杂烩、焗烤海扇贝…这些对一般人来说,可能是连长什么样子都不清楚的高级法式料理,但是对於常百惠而言,却如同家常便饭般熟悉,不但能仔细品味,更可以一道道分析出料理的方法跟美味的原因;因为她,是个生长於富贵人家的独生女,从小跟著父亲吃遍世界无数的美食!
本来百惠应该继续当个无忧无虑的天之骄女,却因为父亲的突然辞世、家庭破产,而顿时掉进现实生活的柴米油盐里!一个连电脑KEY IN都不会的娇娇女,在这个世间还有什么竞争力?
在无数次的面试失败后,万念俱灰的百惠发现自己似乎只有吃的功夫还可以,就在这个时候屋漏偏逢连夜雨,一场雷阵雨下的百惠狼狈逃进一家名叫LITTLE BEAR的餐厅。
好久未饱餐一顿,百惠的大食量与对食物陶醉品嚐的模样,引起了餐厅老闆和店内顾客的注意,也吸引了二厨河马的好感;当百惠嚐到主厨推荐的「黄金汤」时,那与父亲曾做给她喝的是一样的味道!这道汤勾起百惠的过往回忆,使百惠请求老闆让她留在这有幸福记忆的地方工作。然而厨房这地方,管事的不是老闆,而要看主厨-方织田的意思才能决定!
厨房里忙碌的织田,冷眼的瞄了一身气质装扮的百惠一眼,吐出:「我的厨房不收女人!」冷酷拒绝了百惠,百惠虽然不服气,但是还是继续恳求,在眾人的帮忙说服下,织田出了一道考题:要百惠在明天此时作出一道让店内客人全满意的料理!!
连马铃薯都不太会削的百惠,要如何通过这个难关,在LITTLE BEAR留下来,朝一个主厨之路迈进?就算顺利留下来,面对看自己不顺眼的冷酷主厨师傅织田,百惠又要如何因应、才能学会他的功夫,增加自己的实力?
在一小小的厨房里共事,「冷酷师傅」织田跟「天兵弟子」百惠两个人,他们之间会擦出什么样的火花?百惠对於料理的热情能否溶化织田心中的冰山呢?
由日本漫画家槙村怜漫画原著改编的「美味关係」,由F4的周渝民(仔仔)饰演方织田,挑战骂人不打草稿的冷面主厨;还有第一次参与戏剧演出的甜姐儿侯佩岑饰演常百惠,剧中又哭又笑的需要,考验著淋漓尽致的演技。两人的对手戏场面营造出剧中一道道的美味,同时又酸又甜的恋爱氛围,在一次次的料理中让人沉醉!!
方织田 -【周渝民/仔仔】
天才厨师,对料理有与生俱来的才华,「黄金汤」是他的招牌料理,这道看似朴实简单、但却蕴含丰厚味道的料理,也是他坚持厨艺品质的顶级表现;然而却因为主管与自己的理念不合,离开专业的法式高级餐厅,来到Little Bear,选择在家庭料理式的地方当小主厨,自己把关每道料理的呈现。
因为小时候被父母遗弃在南特森林餐厅的背景,而导致个性孤僻、冷漠,不容易亲近,但其实是将热情都隐藏式的投注在自己的料理中,而百惠对人的热诚与对料理的执著也渐渐瓦解了他的伪装。
‧织田名言:「我的汤没有特例,每一天都该是在同一个用心底下所生产出来的汤。」
常百惠 -【侯佩岑】
自小生长在富裕家庭,遍嚐美食,虽然没有其他专长能力,却拥有一副灵敏的舌头与味觉的敏感度,天真乐观下也带点小迷糊。
遭逢家庭骤变之餘,因为来到Little Bear、嚐到织田的黄金汤,感受到记忆中爸爸的味道,因而想留下这个能唤起自己幸福记忆的地方工作,并立志成为一个能用美食料理来温暖人心的厨师,自许能带给所有人幸福。
被织田师傅大小声斥责之餘,也渐渐因织田那在厨房工作时专注的神情与俐落的身手而心生爱慕...
‧百惠名言:我想让别人也因为我做的料理而感动。
何马扬 -【柯有纶】
绰号河马,Little Bear的二厨,个性木訥温和,对料理充满热情,但对自己的手艺没信心,所以不愿继承家业,甘於当个二厨在外磨练学习,并求织田收自己为徒。
钟情於百惠,百惠刚到Little Bear时常在一旁默默守护她,后来也和百惠成为彼此打气的好朋友。
‧名言:好的手艺应该要有传人,我就是那块璞玉。
任可欣 -【赖雅妍】
外表高雅灵慧,脑筋聪明,工作上是能力高超的餐厅企划,应对得宜,但在感情上却没有自信,充满不安全感。
父亲是南特森林餐厅的老闆,也因此从小就认识了织田。后来因为父亲外遇离家,母亲生病,自家餐厅遭遇生意危机,常来到Little Bear找织田,央求织田到南特森林当主厨帮忙。因为压力过重,一方面失去味觉,一方面也开始在织田身上希望找到爱情的慰藉。
‧名言:吃东西不应该是种享受吗?
