feeling like a zombie at the moment. lack of sleep i guess. sat night i was insomnia-struck. slept for 3 pathetic hrs only, and i'm stranded in the middle of the night doing nothing. so i ended up reading my storybk. and well, the upcoming release of the As had nothing to do with my inability to rest. somehow, my body's fuel was full tank tt night, packed with energy. tt's why i'm feeling so drained now. considering the option of taking tmr off to stay home and rest. it's no point dragging a listless, energy-deficient body to work. i might juz doze off on the chair when the phone calls take an occasional break from it's incessant ringing. maybe it's the flu medicine i've been taking tt's keepin me up at night. my eyebags have grown too. i prob look like a panda now with the dark rings cirling my eyes.
i finally drove my parents car to the main road yst!! haha...but of cos, they only let me do it in the mornin like 6 plus, 7am when traffic is 'suited' for beginners like me. anyway, it was damn fun. haha, and much easier to control than a manual car. anw, i'm sure they were sitting on their edge of their seats the entire journey, cos they kept on giving in constructive comments, their advice on wad i shud or shud not do...haha, it was quite funny to watch them get so panicky and to know that i'm the cause of it. i juz kept laughin to myself while they went on and on and on. haha...
got a class chalet at east coast this sat, and we 4 are the proud organizers of it all again!! haha...it shud be great fun, though i'm hoping tt the results won't have too great an effect on the overall mood of the 'class outing'. haha...we could have made it our own private gathering, but well, we're really generous ppl, so we decided to invite our classmates along. haha...kindness begets kindness i hope, lol:)

looking forward to lunch now...gotta go down to town n buy some stuff...so i'll prob take a short break later to grab a bite, then go for a lunch break later during the day...haha...
yst, my colleague treated me n another temp staff to lunch!! haha...he was juz walking past, so we started chatting. then somehow, he agreed to treat us to lunch!! haha...it was only 12.30pm in the afternoon, and i'd only juz finished breakfast!! but couldn't reject him, cos he seemed so sincere...ended up having lunch at the 'victorian cafe' at victoria concert hall!! wa...their set lunches there are pretty reasonable...although the portions felt immensely huge cos i was still pretty full. haha...he mentioned abt another cheap place for lunch, with a gd sea view...hopefully he'll bring us there for lunch next soon!!
read this quote on the papers tdy...made me realise tt i shud start appreciating it, and stop comparing and exaggerating my flaws...life'll be much better...

phone calls been coming in at a sporadical pace for the past hr. time passes v slowly with n without the calls, only exception being whether i spend it getting all fussed up or not. i'm so tempted to take leave for every working day. even going to bed at 10 plus at night is insufficient to recharge for the next hectic day.
life feels a bit stagnant now. too routine, too little surprises. my only aspiration now is to become my own employer in future, can grant myself as much flexibility as i wan to, free of other's commands. can't imagine having to go back and study now. it feels like eons ago alr, i'm all rusty and forgetful now.
i feel like going on holiday again!! disappear from sg for a few wks, and come back feeling like a total foreigner.

work's been rather busy these past few days. they got this new temp staff to help assist the call centre. it's better than nothing i guess, at least i've got a new partner to chat with during office hrs to help pass time:)
went for lunch with my colleague yst, and she really widened my horizon. i never knew the shopping centres next to me had so much to explore. it's amazing how much is hiding inside that small little complex!! haha...
oh man, my slacker colleague juz became an idiot! he told me the wrong info, so i ended up telling the client the wrong info. then when i made him double check, he took over the phone and told a diff version of the story!! how great is he?! no wonder's he's not been sacked yet. he's an expert at sucking up to the bosses as well as claiming credit for himself by making other ppl appear ignorant!! i hope the bosses' will open their eyes wider, and not think too HIGHLY of such a lousy worker!!
he juz makes my blood boil. yst too, he gave me some really POOR advice tt my other colleague is mad at me now. like i haf a say in it?! wisen up alr, won't ask such an idiot for advice in future. self-reliance is a far superior approach!
so ya, end of story for now. let's see wad other trouble he's gng to get me into. i hope he has a guilty conscience man!

wa, a bloody customer juz spoiled my day. and i think he's going to complain against me now. well, damn him. he was juz being so fussy and unreasonable!! tt's why my attitude was so bad. seriously, i can't stand him. complain, go ahead. doesn't bother me. jerk know.
juz cos he wasn't happy tt i told him he had to go and check up the fund himself in future. pls la, this is a customer hotline, and it's free for heaven's sake. wad more do u wan?! everything is available via the bloody net la, go check it up yourself, stop being so lazy.
i am only rude to ppl like him, cos i can't care more. he doesn't deserve me being courteous. i'm in no mood to entertain him, for heaven's sakes. typical, unreasonable singaporeans, only inculcated by the govt to make complaints. asshole. and there goes my mood to work alr.
pls la, i've got customers waiting to compliment me for my positive work attitude k, but juz one customer like tt is sufficient to ruin things...urgh!!
it's juz an inherent character trait, can't be helped. if u're unreasonable, i won't be nice to u either. tt's y i dun bother to be polite, nor can i display a mannered attitude. rude, den rude la. not as though u dun deserve it. how UGLY can singaporeans get? he muz top the chart!!
ugly, ugly, ugly. i do haf my manners, but it's not to be wasted on such an ass. i really wan to find out his identity, since he knows my name, AND surname. sheesh...
i'm gng to stop, as if he hasn't done enuf damage.

mr M.I.A has disappeared again...dunno where he's gone to this time...i'm always thinking of ways to run off nowadays, thanks to his influence. but my conscience still bugs me sometimes....haha, shows tt i'm not as rotten as he is yet, lol:) but this afternoon, he really pissed me off...first, he din wanna ans the calls; then whenever i had any questions to ask him, he'd snatch the call over and talk to the person instead. like wdh, u wan ppl to tok to then ans the bloody phone la. aft tt, when i asked him 1 question, he gave me 1 side of the story; when i prompted him the 2nd time, he sang the other half of the story. wad am i supposed to believe? ok, enuf abt him.
tdy's the other temp girl's last day of work...sigh, i'm gonna miss her...cos she's one of the few whom i can act laugh n chit chat with...like juz now, when mr mia was at lunch, we started gossiping abt him...haha...i only have myself to gossip to in future i guess. :( counting down to knock off time...hopefully the phone lines in sg experience some major tech diff...
life's getting kinda routine n boring these days...work, home, work, home...sigh...

it's been work work work these past few wks. my colleague who's been on mc the past few wks is back, while the other healthier one is on vacation leave. yst's the first time i met the sickie. well, only 1 comment, he's more slack than me!!
i used to feel extremely guilty whenever i exceeded my lunch time, cos my other colleague's super hardworking and committed!! so i always try my best to rush back aft lunch...haha, but now, it's the reverse!! it feels like sch once more; i'm always thinking of more ways to slack and do lesser work! haha...like yst-his first day at work since his mc-, he took a 2 hr lunch break!! oh man!! i can't believe him!! this morn, not only was he 10 mins late, aft coming to work, he went to dunno where to get his water and only came back 15 mins later!! ultimately, he only started work at 9.30!! wa, slacker!!! he's gone for lunch now...better get his ass back to the office quickly!! i dun wanna cover his duties for too long!! haha...i'm going to award myself with a self-extended lunch break too!!
time seems to be crawling by tdy. maybe cos this temp girl, who was here the entire of yst, isnt' here tdy, so there's no one to chat with me now...sigh....haha:) oh ya, and i juz realised tt there's some company politics gng on now...haha, so exciting!! can spice things up a bit...haha:)

happy new yr ppl!!
i act had an entry typed out yst, but cos i was rushing off from work, i couldn't complete it b4 6pm, so now, it's in deleted memory:)
it's getting more hectic ard here now; singaporeans seem to become richer aft the new yr. the phone's constantly ringing, there's always voicemail to be cleared, and my voice is going. it's juz appalling how dependent singaporeans are. we're hardly an independent lot. maybe its got to do with e education system, we love being spoonfed!! both me and my colleague refuse to check the voicemail...haha, de red light's been blinking for the entire morn alr, but ahh, who cares!!
finally it's fri...hopefully i'll be able to get some rest over the wkend and recharge...haha...
chi new yr was, juz, usual. nothing special really happened...trotted down to chinatown in the wee hr of the first day of cny, when all the shops were having discounts b4 closing shop...haha...it wasn't really exciting, not much variety to speak of...din managed to find wad i wanted to, but i bought this pot of plant for $1.50 only...tt was a cheap deal man!! haha:)
call flood now...gtg
