Shorthanded..

Shorthanded in office these days.. Been working til late. Have been wanting to blog but haven't had the time. Can't remember what I wanted to blog about already. Sighz... Getting old.. Keep forgetting things nowadays. Have been short changed in office. A bit pissed off but promised many people that I will stay in this department for 1 year and I will stick on with it. Can only say coz there are still many things for me to learn. Given my stubborn character, I think I'll be able to persevere on and stick it through. Finally booked the tickets for my Egypt trip. Can only keep my fingers crossed that we have enough people who signed up for the package so that I can go on my trip. Can't wait for a well deserved break from work! Haha. I miss travelling, and I've never been out of Asia before besides to Australia. Hehe. Yay!! Quite a lot of people have been saying that I seem more cheerful these days. I feel that way too! Much happier and lighter. Why not? Haha. Isn't...

Dragonfly on Tues

Dragonfly on Tues nite! COOL! Haha. Thanks to Felix for driving me down to open my free bottle of Hennessy before it gets forfeited. We were there for a while and we were so relaxed that we didn't wanna leave. :p Anyway, I enjoyed mself there tonite so once again, thanx Felix! Had dinner with Bee and Felix after that. Was enjoyable. Chatted and discussed about 21 Sept where we will have a mini celebration for Bee's bday. :) Today was not a very exciting or happy day for me but it was made much better after the trip to Dragonfly and some sms-es from young boy Tony. Haha. Young boys these days.. Made my day though by cheering me up. I feel old. :D So overall, today was not that bad after all. Plus an sms from Jean dearest. Thanx babe!

I'm not a fool..

I'm not stupid, neither am I a fool. Don't lie to me and tell me things when I know they aren't true. Just tell me the truth. I'm not dumb. I can sense it when things are not right. Do I look stupid to u? I may not have graduated from a local Uni, may not have 2nd upper class honours, but that does not make me dumb nor stupid nor any less clever than others. Whatever. Lie to me. Treat me as an idiot. Maybe I am. A klutz, a donkey, an airhead, a numskull, a blockhead, an ass, a dodo, a dimwit, a goon, a dumbbell, a dumdum. Whatever. So be it. The only 2 things that managed to brighten up my day was the fact that the minute I reached office, I saw a note from my beloved princess, Bernicia. Haven't seen my little sis for ages and it was really great to see her note 1st thing in the morning. Was sweet and nice. Miss my little dearest. 2nd thing was that Meng actually read my previous post and sms-ed me from Dubai. Thanx bro! Wish I can go Dubai.. But sighz.. How does De...

Alone

People who know me well enough will know that I am someone who does not like to be alone, especially when it comes to going out alone or eating along. But somehow, I have been doing what I dread most. Haha. Went to my friend's (Dave) pub this afternoon coz I was bored and he was waiting for the aircon service repair guy to resolve the leaking of water from the aircon. Had lunch there and went for movie with my cousins shortly after. Had pre-bday celebration for my sis after the movie and it was home for everybody. Being bored n not wanting to be home so early on a Saturday nite, I went to Dave's pub again. But as it was night time and he had customers, I was alone the whole time. Of coz I know the staff working there and some of them chatted with me at my table but I was alone most of the time. And guess what, I was there for 3 hours. Haha. Unbelievable ya? Have been finding solace and enjoying the solitude, peace and quiet. My 'mummy' has also said that I have been so ...

The Kind of Love

Was talking to my mummy in office today and we discussed about love. We came to a conclusion. I am someone who likes another person easily esp when the guy shows me some care and attention. Reason being, I enjoy being in love and the feeling of being loved, being cared for, being protected by the person I like and who likes me. I like guys who are romantic but have never met any guy who is romantic or has given me a truly romantic feeling. Mummy said that this is life.. I agree, totally. But who am I to talk about love? I suck at it.. Been having the urge to just disappear from everyone and everything for a couple of days. Been wanting to take a break for myself, by myself. The urge is getting stronger everyday and on the bus home just now, I could see myself doing that at the place I wanna go. Don't think anyone will know where that is and will be able to find me. Think I really need to rest more. Finally been able to finish work early or on time ever since I stopped helping Shang...

Official Retirement

I have officially retired from Control Dept. Dunno if I should be happy or sad. I guess in a way, I can finally concentrate on my options. But somehow, it's like letting go of my baby.. Something which I have put in a lot of effort to make it work and to do it well. But I'm glad to move on.. Just like I am moving on with my life. Been working late these days coz of the major issue that they have been facing with. Managed to resolve it today.. At long last. I can go back on time again and start enjoying my nights instead of staying on in office. I don't mind the hard work in office, but if it goes unappreciated, it's saddening and disheartening. Anyway, it's over so.. Time to go on. Have been skipping dinner the past few nights. Not much of an appetite but while I was bathing earlier, I smelt glutinous rice and it made me crave for it. Been sometime since I last ate that.. Craving!!! Tired and sleepy.. Shall go sleep after my show. Nitez folks!

Starbucks

Sitting at Starbucks today waiting for my dad who was undergoing endoscopy scan, reading the options textbook that I brought along, listening to the music in the background brought back memories of me when I was 15-16 years old. So much so that I penned it all on a Starbucks serviette before I came home to key in this entry now. At the age of 15-16, I used to study at Starbucks Liat Towers every week and even after work sometimes. I would leave my house early in the morning with all my books and notes, head to Starbucks, get my favourite sofa seat at the corner of the cafe, plug in my earphones and be lost in my own world til almost noon when working adults would come in for a cuppa to chat and relax during lunch. That was when I would take a break. During that time, I got to know Belle and Vincent. Belle's a very pretty girl! Both of them were working there at that time and they were super friendly. Part of the reason why I always went there. I still remember how my compositions r...
