And here I am again! After a 10-days hiatus and back by
popular demand! Sadly, it's only demand by ONE person. A
dua pai character who finally has time to visit my blog again while in
tokyoland. =p
Hey favourite coussie, don't say I never update my blog okays! Here I am writing an entry specially for you to read! Haha.
The last thing I want to do after getting home each day is to come online actually. After being on it for, like, no less than
10 hours each day. Goshh la.
Work's getting really busy and things just simply pile up like it's free! I mean, technically speaking it
is free, but that's not the point! There are only so many brain cells I can multitask with at one time. Arghh. But still pretty much enjoying what I do..except for the occasional skirmish with clients or within the office.
And after only 2 months odd here, I'm starting to exhibit symptoms of occupational hazards. Such as talking in terms of "concepts" and "ideas" and "bindings" and "finishings"..gone are the days when I'd blindly collect any and every kind of postcards in malls. Now, I scrutinise for the "
aesthetically-pleasing" kind (reminds me of a particular client haha) and I've taken to keeping boxes and packagings which are unique. Now, can you spell for me
karang guni? I feel abit like one. Lol.
Ohh! Lunch in office today was a damn happening affair! BB suddenly skyped a few of us and said that she didn't feel like going out for lunch; who wanted 933 chicken curry in a loaf delivery?
What ensued included lots of decision-making processes which depended on how lazy one was to walk out for lunch, whether someone else's wallet needed to go on a "diet", what kinds of food were available, who else was eating, blah blah.
And finally! BB picked up the phone to call and order, only to give her order halfway and.....
"I'll call back later to order!"And so repeated the
whole process of figuring out who wanted lunch delivery cos' 2 more dear girls couldn't make up their minds. Hahaha.
Eventually managed to place our order, with the discovery that there would be
10% off the total bill if we did self-collection! Aunties to the max haha!
Note: They were situated in the building
next to ours. =p
And who went to collect the food? BB and yours truly. And after we got back, something struck me as being kind of
wrong.
I wonder who was the one who initially didn't want to walk out for lunch, that's why we called for delivery. In the end, we walked
even further than if we had simply gone to the coffeeshop downstairs. So much for delivery la. Lol.
But that's when I discovered the kind of companies which existed near our office! As lings aptly puts it, I sound like I'm working near lots of factory outlets.
If only they sold stuff like topshop, warehouse, miss selfridge and the likes. I'd gladly forgo lunch a few times a week for some retail therapy during lunch hour. Haha!
Lots of friends still having exams; I've almost forgotten how it feels like to feel the adrenalin rush of sitting for a paper, the shared despair (and secret relief =p) when everyone moans after a particularly challenging paper..the super early nights (for me) before a morning paper the next day..the mountain of essence of chicken my parents would make me bring to hall..
Those were the days man...I miss them so, exams and all!
Easy for me to say, now that I no longer have to take exams. =p
And I still can't find the perfect bridesmaid dress!! Yes so I am
hiao and I want the perfect dress, cannot meh? Haha. Recommendations, anyone? Just nothing
black, or someone reading this will smack me. =D
I think I'm going to start agonising over what to wear for tomorrow in about..ohh, another 2 hours' time or so. This has become a nightly ritual for some strange reason. Which will be delayed till the next morning when I need to rush. Haha. Thing is..I have alot of clothes! Though I believe you can never have too many, so shop to your heart's content! As long as your wallet can
tahan. =p
Ohh as I was saying..I have alot of clothes BUT..many aren't suitable for work. People who know me shouldn't be surprised la. Haha. I totally need more bottoms for work..but they simply elude me whenever I hit the shops!
Ohh crap I didn't realise I've typed such an essay! So much for having nothing to blog about. Sorry for the bore haha. But coussie you'd better appreciate this long-as-history post okays!! =p
Haven't been going out much after work..I miss the frequent suppers I used to indulge in, right till quite a couple of weeks back. Not so much of the food; more of the company and enjoying the night out. Gotta limit the time I can stay out till, but I've been fairly good for many weeks now;
abit more freedom shouldn't hurt too much la huh.
If I can find pple to go with.
Lots of things have changed, in a short span of time. Good and bad, happy and sad. Events coming up, such as ling's wedding, xmas and new year, which I'm really looking forward to. I love the year-end festive season. =) Trying to think of ways to celebrate already..suggestions, anyone?
At the same time..the coming month is starting to bring back lots of memories which made me really sad last year. The last day of 2008 is going to be tough..when everyone is in a celebratory mood, my feelings will be mixed. Don't know to say if I look forward to the 31st or not.
Anyhows! Live life one day at a time for now. Love my weekends and wacky laughter induced by funny colleagues and incidents at work. Life was really bad once upon a time, but it's now time to pick up the pieces and move on.
=)
