oh! i forgot to write about the eating-at-mrt station incident. actually there were 2 lar. once at eunos.. was waiting for aud ting pam to come and for jiahui to change.. and was eating dinner (bread) while looking at the map to figure out where the cc was so we'd noe how to walk there. then this attendant or watever u call him came up to me and said "no eating in the station" and told me to move to the entrance of the mrt (which was like maybe 3 metres away). super spastic. i'm sure i'm going to pluck off bits of bread and fling them around.
and then another day in the morning i was eating pineapple tarts in the car.. so i was still eating when i reached the bukit batok mrt.. so i stuffed the rest of the tart into my mouth and fished my wallet out and went in. and then unless i heard wrongly or sth, the guy told me to eat slowly. was rather amused:p
i think i've become a horrible person. hmm. or maybe over-perfectionistic. or over-critical. or over-demanding. yeah that sounds about right. anyway. i was thinking about this last night. or maybe this morning. dunno lar. suddenly remembered the quote (i have no idea where it's from) : eyes are the window to one's soul. really? i don't seem to agree. or maybe i'm just not discerning enough.
it's so weird. i feel like i haven't seen my friends in ages when i just met them on monday. hmm. and suddenly feel lonely. like nobody wants to talk to me. or i don't want to talk to pple. funny huh. maybe staying at home and sleeping 11hrs on both days does something to you.
i also think my lethargy has reached new levels. my determination seems to be at an all-time low! either that or work saps all my energy (convenient excuse huh). all i end up doing is lie on the bed and read and read and read. and i haven't finished half the books i read last year. aiyoh. wat a real pig.
oh! and my mom told me that my aunt and her colleagues say my hair's v untidy! they work 18 floors below me, and apparently can recognise me even though I only went to her office once. weird pple. oh wait there was this other time when they said i'm always smsing or sth. i'm really most bemused. the way people gossip is scandalous. i hope i don't do that. like gossip about pple i don't even know and criticise all sorts of things.
wonder what cny will be like this year. same old boring stuff. i wonder how my lil cousin's finding nygh haha. that'll be interesting at least. maybe she'll have some funny things to tell me:) somehow i think my family's quite isolated. or maybe that's just what i think.
and i dunno why i'm suddenly getting worried about results all over again. sigh. maybe it's the time to wallow in self misery so everyth that comes to mind is nothing happy.
oh yes and one night i had this super weird dream that i suddenly had another sister (slightly older than me) whom i knew next to nothing about, and was typing in her income data or sth into the computer. result of combination of work & listening to frens' stories abt rich pple.
mixed-up me. nevermind, maybe tmr'll be better if i don't have some other weird dream. haha. oh! i forgot if i sed this, i want to watch finding neverland! i hope it wins lots of awards haha. (and johnny depp of cos). raving johnny depp fan here. k lar i only like pirates and probably this show too but well. oh and racing stripes looks cute, but the voicing over seems quite.. dunno. doesn't really fit what I thought it would be like. from the clips i watched. nvm, having the horse-racing in is probably good enough haha.
warning: do not read if you don't want to hear me whine. a lot.
i'm busy wallowing in self pity now cos i hate my job. it's undescribably monotonous. and unbelievable mind-numbing (and finger-numbing too i might add). i have 5 more graphs to draw manually. and 2 more to do w the computer. i hate the sight of computers now. wails. and i couldn't find myself any nice and cheap food to eat!:( the curry puff wasn't nice. i must go find nicer curry puffs. i miss the rj muslim stall one:(
anyway, yes, and i am totally sick of excel files, and anything remotely to do with lubricants, whether automotive or industrial. and the HR manager seems to have this knack of walking out when I'm doing something not work-related. oops. heck, they had better pay me my 1000 bucks. or more, if i work more than a month. grr.
let me see what else i can complain about. and sick of doing formulas for summing stuff and taking weighted averages. and oh! yes. i'm quite convinced i got the carpal tunnel syndrome (okay lar today my right hand doesn't hurt so maybe i'm well already haha) thanks to their work. feel like sueing them. click click click click. growl.
and they don't even have nice things in the pantry. ah. my train of thought has derailed cos ser came online to save me haha. the only thing vaguely interesting i got to do was to do name tags haha. the cutting's actually quite fun:p k yeah i'm deprived, i noe. but really, when u're stuck with excel and graphs on powerpoint, you start to appreciate little things a lot more.
ah! yesterday i was v sad cos there was no bed and i wanted a nap. (sleeping at 2 doesn't really make u feel v awake in the afternoon) and then when i told my parents that last night they were so amused. but really! i was so tired and wanted to sleep and there was nowhere comfy:(
i think my brain cells are being depleted by this. more damages to claim. haha. if only.
k well back to stupid graphs. i keep forgetting wat i was going to say.
oh wait i just remembered sth. this office is so freaking cold it's like winter. if i stayed here any longer i'd become a snowman. or ice queen. crazy lar. dunno why they need the aircon to be so cold. i mean like fine, performances like cirque du soleil, the performers might sweat and that's quite dangerous so they need lower temps but here?? ....
quotes of the day from peiying. cos they're the only 2 i remembered
lyd talks about her pay, and how she spends it on clothes and all that.
peiying: nxt time when pple ask u where's your pay? answer = "i'm wearing it"
chris: oh.. u noe.. shining and her boyfren are in paris!
peiying: i don't know shining. but i know paris!
anyway, dinner was funny.. trust chris to dump the ice cream in knowing that the chocolate'd overflow.. shud've taken a photo of that haha. and also trust lydia to refuse anyth with the slightest trace of ice cream inside:p and lijia's peas on the table, and attempts to cover them using the paper/plate (oh no! the waitress cleared the plate!) and tissue. and the great overturning pizza. it was really good seeing everyone again:) smaller groups work better.
although i must admit i was in a terrible mood while i was walking there. everyone knew my phone wasn't working. yet at 7.15 i called chris, no answer. called joon. "we were waiting for u to call" "ur phone really can't call ah?" & before that "ok 7 at giordanos so u wun have any problems later". after i msged everyone and set the time and place and everything and at 7pm, nobody is to be seen. k i'm probably over-reacting as usual but anyway, at that moment i was quite annoyed. but, at least everyone else decided where to eat earlier if not we'd waste more time deciding. and i didn't say anyth at dinner cos i didn't want to spoil everyth. figured it's quite stupid to organise something and ruin it. plus it's hard to stay mad at such lovely pple haha. anyway, it's over. and not a big thing.. just that i wasn't in a gd mood to begin with so got rather grumpy.
oh yes, my phone! i wanted to lodge a complaint but apparently it's not really their fault either so i can't. darn. anyway, yes. finally, on saturday, after visiting samsung shop at centrepoint to check out why i can't enable wap, we found out i have to change my sim card. (here i'm already wondering wat kind of service singtel is giving but apparently a few pple had to change card too, so watever). so, went to the hello shop at westmall and the guy says, tuesday the new sim card will be activated.. around noon u can't use the old card to call out. so, fine, i'll just remember to bring the card on tues to change. but taadaa! today, at 12-sth, when i try to msg ser to ask her abt her bag, my phone doesn't work. -alarm bells go off-. well done, singtel. congratulations on your efficiency. but you have also succeeded in inconveniencing me for the rest of the day. i wouldn't have really cared if i were at home, just switch the card. but u wudn't expect me to carry the card around w me everywhere when they said tuesday!
anyway, on a happier note, i got my cd! wahaha:) haven't had time to listen yet though. and i finally settled two very long-belated bday presents:s now for the next 2 haha. i feel poor. where's my pay?? aah. time to sleep. so so tired.
ah.i should've followed my instincts on friday night and not gone. but again, it wasn't really instincts. i think? anyway pity we din get to kayak aft all cos fuzzy din call them earlier to ask or sth like tt.. and jiahui was still sick, and pam cancelled for dunno wat reason.
so ended up watching aviator. wasn't exactly my cup of tea (plus it was super long). n we shud've read the synopsis before going haha was a bit lost there. i did feel like watching a movie but nothing really appealed yest.
nvm, i've found nice movies to watch: finding neverland and racing stripes! haha it looks super cute.. saw it in australia:) i hope it's nice! lala. and actually i'm only watching finding neverland cos there's johnny depp haha. i sound like a groupie. and the show's supposed to be good anyway. and i shall get my cd tmr. once i can decide which cd and where to buy it from haha.
and i made konnyaku jelly today! a bit too sweet and a bit too soft.. nvm still got 2 more packets to experiment with haha. and drove today. illegally i mite add. but well i think i'm getting the hang of it. there's an awful lot of things to remember. why's it so tedious.. it goes for everything lar. except for maybe piano or sth, i dunno.
*yawns* i took a 2 hr nap and am still tired. i shud stop being so lazy:( nvm tmr's dinner should be gd:) yumyumyum .but i foresee feeling rather poorer aft that.
