Had a nightmare last night. I dreamt that I failed my O levels… How can I keep work stress from haunting me even in my dreams?
Zodiac forecast that says it all August 3, 2011
Fellow Piggies, see the following excerpt from fengshuibestbuy.com for the year 2011:
“Without any lucky star in its place, the Pig is hit hard this year. You don’t feel like working this year and lack of enthusiasm on anything. Rabble-rouser aplenty to spread rumours leading to accident, illness, litigation and loss of wealth. Tactfulness and forbearance are crucial for gaining supports and generate the much needed positive energy. Career wise, you will be facing many setbacks with vile characters wrecking havoc. Luckily, just like the year before, the Pig is in union with the Grand Duke Jupiter this year. It indicates that your luck will be stable this year because you gain support from senior and powerful people. It will also improve your interpersonal relationship with your colleagues and counterparts. Wealth luck is weak where finance outflow is more than finance inflow. Avoid from becoming a guarantor. Three major unlucky stars that hit you out are the Tian Xiong, Bai Hu and Di Sha. The Tian Xiong (Sky Warrior) star will lead you to making enemies with your family members, superiors, counterparts and colleagues at work. The Bai Hu (White Tiger) star on the other hand implies bloodshed, mishaps, injuries and accidents. You will have to be extra cautious at all times. Last but not least, the Di Sha (Earth Killing) star denotes troubles that will derail your plans. All your undertakings including your financial, love, health and career plans will potentially be messed up and not follow the planned schedule. Health wise, you will need to beware of lung infection. As for love luck, although you will not have much difficulty with your existing relationship since you are in union with the Grand Duke, but it is most unlikely for the singles to meet with the right person. “
Spot on for me in terms of the career forecast… Given that I’m a person who lacks“tackfulness and forbearance”, I think I would have to live with the “vile characters wrecking havoc” in my current state.
Sniff.
Stay home weekend June 26, 2011
The flu viruses have been partying away inside me like its Mambo Night at Zouk everyday for the past week. I think I got infected since last Thursday, but the onset of the fever and other symptoms only came in the middle part of this week until the weekend. For the whole week, I’ve been dragging my feet to work (in my nuabs!) because I feel lousy physically.
I think I constantly had the classic “chao bin” look; perhaps looked like I was forced to step into office and will shoot anyone who gave me any work. This, of course, has not helped me in leaving a good impression for my superiors at work, given that I am still under probation. My colleagues have been nice enough though to allow me to work from home as I wish. In my AD’s words, she said that she could tell that I had been “wilting since the morning”.
I hope I can get well soon, even though my sinuses are aching as I type right now.
Lesson learnt June 15, 2011
I should have known better than to start the week off by wearing a new pair of heels.
The blisters from the new heels limit the shoes that you can wear for the rest of the week, as all the other covered shoes rub at the same places.
Why do we always have to learn it the hard way…
buay song, let’s fight! September 16, 2010
i tend to be buay song very easily. is it me or what?is it good or bad?
Me : Do you have this ham and cheese burger or crossiant?
BK auntie : $2.95 one? (actually she said $3.95 and i misheard as $2.95)
Me : ya, that one. (all i wanted was that cheese and ham thingy)
BK auntie : what drinks you want?
Me : it comes with a drink?
Bk auntie : ya with a drink.
Me : erm.. tea pls.
Bk auntie keyed in the amt and $3.95 appeared….
Me : erm…in that case i dun want the tea anymore, i will jus have the burger (it’s not about the $ but it’s just that i JUST DUN FEEL LIKE HAVING TEA)
Bk auntie : cannot cancel already and i already told you there’s a drink!
Me : yes, which is the point why i was surprised and asked jus now.
Bk auntie : *shook her head and gave me the i am damn stupid face*
Me : You know what. FORGET IT. I DUN WANT ANYTHING NOW.
BK auntie : *in the most guailan manner ever* HAM AND CHEESE CANCELLED (to the crew in the kitchen)
Yes, i misheard, it’s my mistake and i know i am very troublesome and i am very sorry about it BUT what is the big deal about cancelling the order and re-key in the orders again when there’s only 1 person queuing behind me? What’s with the HAM AND CHEESE CANCELLED? I would have said sorry anyway if i decided to change my order last minute. Before i could even say sorry, she’s decided to refute me. Sorry no sorry for you then.
50+ old auntie still having to work at BK, i know what she is going through her mind. But plsssssssss, dun vent it on me. Take it easy yo! She can be a 50+ old auntie still working and still be happy, but sadly she decided to join in the world sucks assoc, just like my company’s cleaner. Btw, the company’s 50+ old auntie cleaner jus threw her vaccum cleaner on the floor. I think she is unhappy and she shall befriend the BK auntie.
world sucks day August 16, 2010
if i m rich, i will have a lot of people sucking up to me. Suckers and rich people who enjoy sucking and getting sucked. they belong to the same kind. stupid people in my category. and the other type, rich people who got sucked and unable to differentiate between genuinity and suckers. that’s also another type of stupidity. and one more type, suckers who suck in the face. also stupid.
today is one of the suck day. i think we should all have a world sucks day and it must be a PH.
Sucks to be YOU
feeling good can be so easy August 6, 2010
i m feeling good today because :
1. i had a filling dinner last night
2. i am on pm half day leave today
3. my boss is away till next wednesday (which then totally makes my half day leave a full day instead)
4. it’s my mum’s birthday
5. K is on half day off today as well
6. i am going to have my virgin haircut at shunji matsuo
7. i managed to put together a look that i like for work since i’m on half day
8. i managed to not get drunk last night and drank water
but feels lousy too at the same time :
1. slept at 4am last night and feeling fatigue – if only i didn’t go out last night
2. have been spending way too much – if only i have not made that appt at shunji
3. thighs are rubbing agst each other – if only dinner wasn’t that filling last night
as much as i wanna feel good and perfect, there is always an element of bitterness in me, dwelling on the too many “if-onlys” in life and often soon enough to realise that “if-onlys” are totally preposterous and self-damaging. if i have already did what i did and the results weren’t satisfying, what for still cry over spilled milk? going through all that mind-fucking “if-onlys” and “what-if-i-have-done-that” shit (which are mostly what i brought upon myself) is a tedious exercise.
therefore, i decided to stop the crap, like i said, it’s self-damaging. with the help of much positive thinking and a lil sense of humor. I NEED TO CONQUER THIS SHITTY FEELING.
1. slept at 4am last night and feeling fatigue – i have the long weekend to sleep and since my boss is not in office today. i can just shut my mind off, which is way better than having to face my boss when i have not had enough sleep.
2. have been spending way too much – in any case i won’t be broke from all that spending and i should just enjoy life as it is with mild control.
3. thighs are rubbing agst each other – since already rubbing then continue to rub lor!!! haha. POSITIVE THINKING must be work doublely hard here.
repeat after me : FEELING GOOD CAN BE SO EASY!

(10:15am.2 more hours to end of work! wheeeee)

On hindsight July 6, 2010
I just discovered that I was being two-timed, right from the start.
Sheesh! Who did he think he was? Cassanova? Oh please.
I’m truly disgusted and I really feel sorry for myself.
For the time I wasted and the pain I felt.
When will this gross mistake ever stop haunting me. Can’t seem to shake it off even when I’m so over it.
Seriously injured June 16, 2010
A proud new owner of a Chloe Paraty, newly procured from London, suffered a major heartbreak this morning when a hamster ran amok in Jurong Island and gave the Chloe a good bite.
See the damage on the Chloe; see the mug shot of the culprit.
The owner of the bag is in a state of distraught and refused to have her picture taken.
