good news is dad got the computer fixed yesterday so we can use it now. bad news is there's something wrong with the sound system so i can't finish watching death note 2, something i've been wanting to do for quite a while now. bleah.
i agree with weiqin i don't understand why people smoke either. once at work i saw this pregnant lady smoking and i wanted to walk up to her and tell her don't you know you're killing her child?
actually if i had more guts i would walk up to strangers and say random things to them. like when i see someone with nice shoes or clothes i really wanna ask them where they got it from but i don't dare to. haha. or the time i saw this girl in skinny jeans with half her butt hanging out i wanted to tell her you should get bigger pants or can you please not be so obscene but i didn't dare to either. she could've gotten her gang to beat me up or something. haha.
well i've gone home straight after work the whole week now. but somehow i'm kinda ok with it. it's my duty i guess.
i think my inability to accept it was the reason for all my crazy mood swings last week. it's so random like one minute i'm all irritable and i don't want anyone to say anything to me and the next i'm all chatty and happy. haha.
well i am seeing my class next monday. the girls anw. i hope more of them turn up then. and pedicure on tue with weiqin and manda! (:
20/05/2008 tuesday
Ok it’s about 4.20pm now and I have nothing to do! Haha. First time in 4 days. So I’m typing this now. Did I mention that my table isn’t like one of the cubicles in the office but in some space between 2 offices of senior management so it kinda feels like I have my own office. Haha. Seriously. And I’m next to the window so I can just look out and take a break when my eyes get tired. I don’t know how they can stand staring at the computer screen all day.
Meeting manda and weiqin later to get pedicures! HAHA. I’ve never gotten one before and neither have they and we just wanna try. BUT I just cut my toenails over the weekend so I’m not sure if it’s still possible to get a pedicure. If not I’ll just sit and watch them and enjoy their company. Gosh miss them so much.
Ok Shirley found smth for me to do already! Haha.
21/05/2008 wednesday
wow i have nothing to do again. haha. ok this job isn't as busy as i thought. or maybe it's only this period cos the month's coming to an end and pretty soon they'll be busy closing accounts again.
we didn't get our pedicures yesterday cos the lady said our nails were too short. therefore we're going 2 weeks later! haha. and i tell you the lady was flirting with me. HAHA.
anw i realise i have no reason to complain that others earn more than me. cos most of them have to pay for their own transport fees while i don't. and everyone knows how steep adult fares are. so while that took me a while to realise, (feeling guilty now), better late than never. haha. and yes like weiqin says since bf also pays for almost everything when we go out, i don't need that much money.
i hope that the 3 weeks break i'm getting after this contract ends is enough rest before uni starts. i feel like quitting early but then i'll feel bad. we'll see.
22/05/2008 thursday
i just did smth stupid. i wanted to go to the toilet and at the office entrance i was pulling the door but it wouldn't budge. so i asked the receptionist nearby whether the door was locked and she was like push it. and there was the push sign on the door. GOSH. wasn't thinking properly i think. haha.
gosh there really isn't much for me to do today too. and it's not like i don't wanna ask them for stuff to do, it's just that everyone else is busy with their own work they don't have time to teach me new things. so i'll just wait for smth to be given to me. and now i won't feel so guilty if i take leave. haha.
yesterday i was struggling to come to terms with my routine life. i keep asking myself is this what i'm suppose to do.
all i wanna do is watch tv but there's that nagging feeling that i should be doing ironing instead.
sometimes i wish i wasn't the eldest. then maybe i wouldn't have to be so responsible. haha.
i have this colleague at work who's pregnant with triplets. she's due any moment now and she's still at work. GOSH. seriously if i had 3 inside me i wouldn't wanna work. it's pretty dangerous too like what if she knocks into all the desks and chairs in the office and trips and falls? the worst is when i see her handling those huge files. that's life of an accountant i guess you can't really leave cos there's so much to be done.
23/05/2008 friday
i have nothing to do again! good news is we're let off at 5pm today cos apparently they wanna encourage people to spend more time with their families. but i'm going out tonight so it doesn't really make a difference for me. why can't this family day thing be next friday? haha.
the great singapore sale starts today! and this year i think there are more discounts cos it's their 15th anniversary. yay i wanna go shopping! if you wanna go too call me i'll be more than happy to go with you! haha. i wanna get clothes and shoes that are suitable for work and uni.
reading purpose driven life now by rick warren. tried reading it when i was in J1 i think but i gave up halfway, around day 24. tsk. so hopefully this time i'll complete all 40days! haha. i read it in the morning when i'm on the train to work and try to rmb the message during the day. it's pretty good so far, on day 5 now. my favourite message so far is somethins like how everything we have is from God, so how can we boast about our accomplishments?
another is how God will not test us with something His grace cannot sustain us. which is the same message that's in the workbook of living prayer so how cool is that? i think that this is the one line that will be permanently stuck in my head.
ok i'm going to look for work now!
ok i promised to put a photo of my newest cousin ilyse. CUTE RIGHT. (: see she's smiling. she's probably less than a day old in this photo but she's about a month old now. she's really really small. i got to carry her on sat and it was pure bliss. (:
