    working is becoming more of a chore than anything else these days. urgh, i'm so unwilling to come to work, though i'm utterly thankful that the management here is 'flexible' as they term it. i can go jalan jalan during work claiming to need a break from the painful customers; i can take over an hr to get back from lunch though i've not done that in ages. haiz, but as usual, the callers can be so irritating at times. they just refuse to be independent.

    i had this client who called up yst and complaining that we didn't update the latest price on his holdings page when really, its because he was just blind and didn't notice that section. for goodness sakes, ask something more constructive! how dummy guide does this thing have to be?! and it's not some ah soh whose english is CMI asking such questions!

    i'm prob in an irritable mood tdy, better not ans too many phone calls, lest i lose my patience and risk getting complained against. haha...

    there's just one particular kind of ppl i can't get along with: the super-rigid, extremely inflexible, stubbornly law-by-law species. it just gets on my nerves, esp on days when i'm rushing for time and they get so uncooperative. rules are man-created, hence, we are also entitled to bend them, period. why shud we stick by the orders set down by other ppl when they do not follow ours. totally lost my cool at him tdy. so idiot.

    anw, the darling 'third sister' - do watever translation you want- i think gave the customer some wrong advice last wk. he called back to complain tdy. haiz, so typical. luckily he said a 'guy'!! can't be me, HAH! but i wish he made more noise so we would pursue the matter and identify the culprit. it's so terrible to be thinking this way, but heck. maybe he had similar thots abt me too. so there, fair and square.

    i'm becoming more unreasonable nowadays, harder to get along with. but hey, i was extremely, super, ultra patient with the callers today k, hasn't occured since my 1st wk at work. haha, but in other aspects, i'm developing a gradually shorter fuse, somehow. and worse, i feel like i'm evolving to hyde, dark, cunning, mean, sneaky. ok fine, a bit overly exaggerated, but u get the pic. and though i realise the transformation, i'm not really doing anything to prevent it. oh well, we'll jus take things as it comes i guess.

    the haze is gone and the sun is back. there's finally something to cheer abt now.
    another exciting night last night. haha, haven't had such a cheap thrill in ages. but ya, the thrills are getting progressively more dangerous. if only there were more ppl to join us, it'd be much more fun!! haha...i thinking of repeating de same thing tonight, but for safety reasons, i'd better not. better not get into the habit of it as well, juz in case.
    the rest of tdy was juz an eventless day. felt so bored the entire day. and tmr's a working day, sigh sigh sigh. how boring can life get?!

    one more day left to the short wkend...it's a common question with no ans, but why do wkends always go by so quickly? sigh...

    anyway, last night was sleepover at alicia's house again...this time, we taught pear how to play bridge. so we played till near 6 in the morn when we went to the kitchen to prepare a morning snack. we quickly ate our maggi mee b4 rushing off to dreamland...haha...we only woke up the next day at 1pm!!

    went down to town aft lunch to meet den n ck, but i gotta admit i was pretty zonked out from the irregular sleeping pattern. plus i only slept for 7 hrs, how can tt be enough??!! lol :) we just shopped ard a bit, got a lot of free coffee from nescafe then made our way back home.

    i feel tt i'm adopting more bad habits nowadays...terrible!!

    back to work tdy...sigh sigh sigh...time was crawling by so slowly!!

    luckily i had this interview transcribe to do, which i dunno can be considered fortunate or not?! cos i used it as my trump card and happily plucked out the phone line so that i could focus on the MD player; on the other hand, i got so stressed out tryin to decipher what that guy was saying and desperately trying to complete it by the end of the day!! but anyway, i'm looking forward to tmr. it's going to be another boring day, but at least i get to do something new n refreshing. going to use the bloomberg terminal to upload some stuff tmr...sounds so exciting alr!! haha...the sound of bloomberg is intimidating itself...if only i knew how to make full use of it!! wa, immediate knowledge on the latest market movements!! can you beat that? i can even tell you the crashing of the prices and all!! haha...i can add 'data analyst' to my resume alr!! lol...so cool!!

    oh no, my piano teacher say i put on weight!! oh no...oh no...oh no!!!!!!

    my job's finally over. whew, thank goodness. i can finally give my legs a good rest. it was a mad rush tdy. i'm full of complaints for everyone, customers and staff. argh, singaporeans can be so cheapskate and unreasonable at times. they're a stick in the mud man!

    as for my other colleagues, while the rest of us were screaming our voices off trying to sell off the products, the rest of them just slacked ard. and finally when we've finally cleared our stock, we had to stay back and help them sell off the rest of the products otherwise we couldn't go back. argh...they're so selfish. i'm hardly this hardworking, and yet, these ppl can be so self-centred. i've nv felt so AUNTIE b4...screaming like the ah sohs selling fish in the wet market, lucky i din meet anyone i know tdy. oh my! tt'd be TOTALLY embarrassing!! and aft tt, we only knocked off 2 hrs earlier, thanks to those slackers!! i'm one of the most hardworking ones there man!! can't believe it!! after work, i went ard buying some foodstuff and ended up carrying up loads of plastic bags...which juz added to the overall auntie image i nv intend to potray! no face ah!! and the overall head-in-charge din even bother to help us sell the drinks when we were trying to desperately get it off our hands!! he shud lead by example!! and he din even bother to save any packets of drinks out of goodwill for us to bring back! all it takes is a simple drink to cheer everyone up. really bu hui zuo ren!!

    considering if work shud be on the schedule tmr. i dunno if i shud take another day off to rest, or maybe act a bit more responsible and go to work. the heart and body is seemingly weak at the moment. but anyway, tt's tmr's prob. my main concern now is to rest well!!

    currently moonlighting. went for this food-fair at suntec. in charge of the FRUIT TREE FRESH section, which is the craziest section!! business is so bloody good!! but i guess i'd rather be too busy than have nothing to do. my legs are hurting right now, and my hand is sore from pouring all the juice samples. none of the customers pissed me off surprisingly tdy...maybe i've become a more patient person, or perhaps i've seen worse sides of singaporeans that the crowd here isn't shocking at all. i was expecting it to be a small crowd like before; but prob due to the hols, everyone was at the food fair!! can't imagine how hectic it'd get over the next few days!! i'll juz die!!!

    i know it'll sound silly in time to come

    fighting to keep my eyes open now...went jalan jalan with my other temp colleague juz now. luckily i set my alarm extremely early this morn, i took 1 whole hr to get out of bed!! record-breaking timing!!

    it's the sch hols now, my sis is at home the whole while...snatching my peace and privacy away! urgh!! haha...the house belongs to me only during the day!! but can't be helped ya?

    learned a lot of new stuff tdy, did tons of thinking again. dunno wad course i shud choose now. somehow, i can feel this careerwoman emerging out of me. the business & financial sector seems to be so exciting and full of challenges whilst med sounds so boring and purely hard work and a huge amt of patience req to interact with my patients! oh my...but i haven't gotten down to deleting med & prob dentistry away from my course selection yet. dun wanna make any rash decisions i guess.

    i seemed to have missed out so many minute details in the past and somehow, they're becoming super evident now that i can't erase it away. ok, time to face up to reality and move on. time's still ticking away!

    i'm feeling really old now, or rather aged. i don't want to grow up so quickly...is there a neverland in the world?

    visited the 3 unis over the wkend, it made me more confused over my course selection. i can't tell what my forte really is and i'm really jealous of those who are absolute sure of their future career paths. my future seems bleak sometimes. i wish my future could come back to the present to direct my path. but i guess time machines won't be invented anytime during my lifetime, otherwise i'd def have seen myself sometime during my life the past few yrs.

    played a lot during the wkend, spent a lot of money and took a lot of neoprints up till today! haha...came back super late last night and i was so exhausted i din even hear my alarm ring. seriuosly, i doubt it rang cos i refuse to believe that i'm such a heavy sleeper. so i stayed in bed till 10.30 and by that time, it was too late for work alr. went out with ck in the afternoon instead to catch some movies...haha...all my expenses today is what i take the entire day to earn in office. gosh, money really flies out of my wallet faster than i can catch it. but no regrets, it was really a relaxing wkend thus far though the lack of sleep is hurting the eye bags ard my eyes. managed to sneak in to watch brokeback mountain. sad love story. enlightening day in short, made me do a lot of thinking i won't normally do, which is gd and bad. i guess life is about growing up. u want to mature but remain young at the same time. reality will say: dream on!

    currently suffering from insomnia, which is nothing uncommon. had insomnia during the middle of the previous night as well...woke up at 3 plus and couldn't get back to bed till aft 5...if only i knew what exactly is keeping me awake, it'll be much easier now. but i'm not going to revert to sleeping pills at the moment. my mental is too weak, i'll become psychologically dependent on it after the 1st trial. dun wanna risk any addiction, i'm too young and pretty to die!! haha...
    anyway, made my mum bring me to isetan's private sale this morn. if not coz she had an appt in the afternoon, i'd haf bought more clothes. managed to get some office, pretty formal clothes at a steal. maybe it's cos of my job now, my taste in clothes is changing. i'm going more for formal, presentable wear now, which i nv once did in the past. i can probably use the excuse that it will and should come in handy a few years down the road, and i'm simply plannin for the future.
    made a trip back to sch tdy to get my documents verified. wore the red t-shirt and shorts (in months) back to sch. din get stopped by the guard, haha, which gave me a huge sense of accomplishement. once i step into sch, i feel so old, and sentimental. sigh, i'm like the oldest being there, almost ancient!! to see all those little monkeys running and screaming at the grand stand reminds me of sch days. i hate to admit but i do miss sch. went back to TA 11 which is handed down to 05S24 alr. sat down at my old position in class, overwhelmed by nostalgy. that's the irony of life: when i was in NJ, i was dying to leave; now that i'm no longer in NJ, there's a longing to go back. sigh sigh sigh, why is life so full of contradictions? so ya, a short emotional walk down memory lane.
    i'll try to go slp now...tah...

    what do you expect?

    had a pretty eventful weekend.
    took leave on friday to visit my grandma in hospital. later that night, we went to alicia's house to sleepover. haha, me n alicia made dinner for 2 hrs from 6-8. pear smsed to ask us to start dinner first, but evn after she arrived, dinner wasn't ready yet!! haha, we only managed a few rounds of mahjong that night b4 we drifted off to sleep. we got awoken the next morn by my alarm which i forgot to switch off the night b4...haha..
    sat was for chalet at east coast. we were ill-informed abt the room rates at the chalet, otherwise we'd have gotten the double storey instead in squeezing into a small room. anyway, we checked in, had lunch, got our transport mode, den went for the swimming pool....haha, our dear mr tan got himself into an accident that particular night and suffered some memory lapse. we 3 gals were his angels without wings that night, busy shuffling him from the clinic to the hospital. haiz, wad would he do without us ard i wonder!! haha...it was funny yet worrying that night, but fortunately things improved the next day we visited him in hospital. as usual, i din feel like reporting to work the following mon. i'm lookin forward to quitting my job alr, though i know i'd feel guilty in doing so cos my hod's really v nice to me!! haha...oh my, i can't help being so sought after.
    my mood swings were terrible the past few days. i wanted to blow over the phone so many times, luckily i din. not worth getting complained over it, reputation is impt!! haha...mood swang in office tdy during the late morning...no mood to do any work at all...tt's why had to do OT tonight, got to transcribe an interview. imagine a 56 min interview took me more than 7 hrs to complete!! but i do aspire to be that guy in the tape. wonder what his pay's like for the amount of work he has to do. he knows 30 companies profile at the back of his hand; their profit margins, business profiles etc. he was also able to quote all the date of the SARS and bird flu and all the events ard the world!! oh my, he sounds so intelligent. but i doubt he has much of a social life, that part i'm not envious of. haha...but now i'm so preocupied with work, i hardly have anytime to socialise as well, unless i take leave!!! haha...luckily the HOD's on hol till next next wk, i can take guilt-free leave for the coming 2 wks!! lol...
    i never expected myself to be so affected, i thot i've grown beyond it all alr; i thot i was tougher than that...
