Jaded...It's disheartening to know that you've tried your best but yet confronted otherwise.
Even disheartening to get pulled into a complaint which you've never committed to.
Makes one very jaded.
The only good thing to happen today was to hear the colleague's son blabber his school poems. Cute.
So tomorrow's only gonna be better. I hope.

Catching Rapunzel
K and me have been trying to catch Rapunzel on screen for the longest time but have yet to find time to do so.
During Christmas, we've finally decided to catch it on Tuesday after work. But fate has it that the timing sucks and I'm still recovering from my
bad flu, and thus, plan failed.
Today, K messaged to tell me that the timing is a hell lot better today but alas, branch dinner for me and we did not manage to catch it AGAIN! Just as we were resigned to watching it on dvd, our messages spurred on to a totally different topic, which goes on like this...
K: Really have to wait for the discs liao...
Me: Yea, I guess so..
K: Nvm, my jie fu not keen. so any other sugg?
(and no, our whole conversation did not mention abt any jie fu or suggestions whatsoever)
Me: ??
K: My sis hubby lar.. any sugg?
Me: I noe what is jie fu! But we were talking abt rapunzel rem?
K: Oh ya hor! Haha, asking abt new year eve plans lar!
Duh, I think all my friends are like that. They NEVER give signals for changing topics! Dangerous road hazards!
Anyways, K never ever gives up and we finally can watch Rapunzel tomorrow! Shall keep my fingers crossed!

A day lostOn my off day today, I've originally intended to:
- Pack my clothes
- Iron my clothes
- Pack / organize my stuffs, bags, etc
- Go to Maybank to enquire about study loan
- Sort out my DBS Internet Banking
- Start digging my toiletries / cosmetics bags and what's not to prepare for my upcoming HK trip
- Sort my mail
And I ended up nua-ing the whole day, none of the above is accomplished!!!
And it's a freaking hot weather and I can't sleep comfortably without sweating!!! I feel I'm in a toaster, really. Why doesn't it rain on my off day!!?!?
Great, I just wasted one off day.

Of the slightly betta things this yearI can finally see the bright sky when I left work today.
Splendid. =)
Got the increment letter. Like what the boss says, "It's not much, but you can find satisfaction in other ways!"
Splendid. And I'm gonna do just that.

Random-ness againMy feet freaking hates me now. I promise never to shop in heels again!
The guy at the gift wrapping counter freaking cute can!
My blog is turning into short posts in random coz I'm such a lazy arse. But in reality, I actually typed a very very very long post about Christmas shopping and the cute guy but I got DC & DC & DC many freaking times. For this short random post, I got DC-ed three times.
The gist of it - my internet connection sucks!

Da Big Day!It's Esther's big day
tomorrow today! After almost a decade long of
pak-toring, they have finally decided to tie the knot! And we are all very excited about "
acting pretty" tomorrow...until I realized that I look exceptionally ugly recently
sia...with all the pimples popping out like
nobody's business. Coupled with sneezing like
nobody's business every morning which somehow resulted in my puffy eyes, bloated face, whatever. Everything is just so wrong.
Anyways, still gonna try act pretty tomorrow, gonna see
lotsa long time no see friends. At most, I hide myself near the toilet exit
hahahaa. =D
In other random matters, can somebody explain to me the rationale behind adding a complete stranger as a friend in
Facebook?!?! I was on the cab after walking in my torturous shoes for the whole day in Orchard and keep
kena-ing escalators under maintenance which made my poor feet climb like hell.
Well, I was digressing. What I was really trying to say was that I was on the cab and I overheard on the radio the discussion about adding strangers in
Facebook. The DJ was asking this gal (which I suspected to be a teenager) whether she will add complete strangers to her
Facebook and she answered a meek yes. And when asked if she will go out with these strangers if they do ask her out, she answered no, because they may kidnap and do bad things to her. Fair enough. And finally, when asked, why in the first place would she add them then? She answered an intelligent "For the fun of it" and proclaimed that it's not just a statistical addition to her "friends collection". Like,
wtf!
Tell me I'm not the only one with this huge question mark on my head.

Finally...a random updateI've been super busy lately and hence the lack of updates. Can't seem to finish my work nowadays which resulted in the "
Pimple fiesta" on my
already-full-of-pimples face.
It's a good thing that I've finally managed to leave office as early as 5.30pm for yesterday and today. I didn't know that it can be so
therapeutic hearing thunder roar while bathing as early as 6pm! Life's simple pleasure.
Hah!
In other
emo matters, sometimes I wish there's a delete key in my life so that I can just delete everything bad in my life.
I'm such an escapist. Really.

The thing about addiction... & on leave~!I'm on freaking one week's leave to celebrate my 大寿!
Being on leave is a wonderful feeling coz you get to sleep in on rainy days and not having to worry about getting up late and being late for work. And one week's leave means I get to sleep in on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday! The entire freaking work week! Wahahha, I'm such a lazy arse!
Actually, I'm supposed to do a million zillion things to fully utilize my leave. Things like, packing my room, organizing my huge collection of backdated photos & uploading them on Facebook, organizing my music folders, washing my laundry, and many others. Instead, I'm hooked on playing Bejewelled on Facebook! I can play for hours man! The horror of 1 minute games! Now, my latest addiction concurrently with Bejewelled includes Cafeworld & Online shopping!
Speaking of online shopping, I'm supposed to find dresses for the upcoming 2 wedding dinners I have. I think I have a thing for bubble dresses & ribbons. I've found one white & one black, both bubble dresses & ribbons either front or back. And I'm thinking of wearing the white one in the morning & black at night. I'm seriously wondering if my friends will think I'm bubble-siao or not.
So there! I'm back to playing my Cafeworld!
Addiction is never a good thing!

Emo...Did you ever notice that there is always that particular line in that certain song that always stands out in that certain way? and reminds you of that one person you can’t forget.
It may not be that one song. It may be a few songs. Songs that were in a certain era and bring back memories. Happy or sad.
Today, I'm hooked on one song. A song without lyrics in fact. A song I've never heard and should never bring me any memories so to speak.
But then, somehow, I turned emo. Emo must be something I picked up from someone.
Holding people away from you, and denying yourself love, that doesn’t make you strong. If anything - it makes you weaker. Because you’re doing it out of fear. You have to take chances. You have to know when to let go and know when to hold on with everything you’ve got, and that’s what makes us who we are. Taking risks - that’s living, being too scared even to try; that’s just a waste. We all make alot of mistakes, but we shouldn’t regret things. Because at least we didn’t spend a life standing outside, wondering what living would be like.
Told you I was emo.

I do not understand...In light of the recent recession, I forwarded the following picture to my colleagues to brighten up their otherwise boring day.
Then one started to reply, telling me to look carefully at what they are eating coz bread and eggs ain't cheap and telling me how Bengali used to peddle their ware on their head and so on.
What I don't understand is how the above translate to my email on the chickens having their kids for breakfast or having food on the table is good enough in such bad times.
Perhaps, we were on the wrong frequency...
What say you?

Phantom of the opera
I want to watch this!
The last time it was here in Singapore, I was only a poor student in Secondary 1 and could only make do with reading the book and hearing from my very rich classmate how fantastic it was.
Almost a decade later, I can finally watch it!
Not that I'm very rich now... In fact, I bloody overspent in the last 2 months and very poor indeed now.

Tuesday, August 29, 2006
Never so 准About one month ago, I dug out my antique calculator from my secondary school days upon knowing that I'm gonna take the stupid financial test.
Seeing that the antique calculator is still miraculously working despite so many years of non-usage, I jokingly told my colleagues that the calculator might
suay suay die on me on the fateful day when I'm gonna take the test.
Now, one month later, a day before the fateful day of my test, my calculator indeed, died on me.
Tell me, why am I never as 准 in predicting toto and 4Ds numbers?!?

Off day = Studying? Packing?I'm supposed to spend today's and tomorrow's off days studying for this financial test which I'm supposed to take this Wednesday.
Somehow or rather, I spent almost 3/4 of today MSN-ing, exchanging 1990s old songs(yes, you heard it rt!), gluttoning in front of the TV and reading random blogs.
I've yet to do anything remotely to studying for that stupid financial test, which I've already forgotten what it is basically about, except for loads of formulas which I've also conveniently forgotten how to use the stupid calculator from my secondary school days.
Splendid.
Also, I realized that I should use this time to pack my already
cannot-make-it garbage room, which I promised
many many many blog entries ago, that I would pack, but somehow or rather, did not materialise.
Splendid.
Now if you are going to believe me again, I promise to study and pack tomorrow, where
tomorrow, is a never-ending equation.

Passport photosAll that
panic for nothing. Change or no change in passport number didn't matter as long your passport is still valid.
Chey!
Anyway, the online application for my passport is still pending because I submitted some random photograph of me which somehow did not meet ICA's requirements. Clever ICA people.
Since I overslept for work today, I took morning off to take a decent passport photo and didn't dare touch my tempting bed and pillows again for fear of oversleeping AGAIN!
By the way, I hate taking passport photos....Must look straight at the camera, must be able to see the ears, fringe cannot cover eyebrows, so leh chey.... They also make me look fat, stoned and auntie-looking.
On the other hand, I luuurve taking neoprints... They make me look like some superstar. Muahaha!
I shall scan them and let you guys see k.... That is, when my brother comes back to scan it for me. By the way, why is he not back yet????
Lo and behold, I have a new
stalker.

Passport expired!Ho seh! Now I'm going into panic attack coz I've just booked a flight to Phuket under my IC number, which supposedly is my passport number. But my passport has expired and lazy arse me have procrastinated and yet to renew the freaking passport. And then I realized that they are now issuing some new bio-metric passports, and the freaking passport number is no longer the freaking IC number I've registered my flight under!!!
Panic strikes! I'm gonna call ICA tomorrow.
