2 months left

15 07 2007

A mere 8 weeks before my enlistment. So many things to be done and so little time to spare.

I better not regret this and spend whatever time I have left with her.

Went over to my cousin’s place to celebrate my neice’s 1st birthday. Invited my Bao Bei to come along ^^.

She came over to my place first and we ate……Ben & Jerry’s!!!!!! Chocolate Brownie Fudge and Strawberry Cheesecake. Smooth, full of flavours, chunks are huge, beats Haagen Dasz in every single day!

 Kids were screaming and running the entire day, compared to last year, the noise level dropped stremendously. Guess when kids grow older, they know when to shut their trap. Can’t imagine if I have 3 kids in the future…arghh…..

Work has been worse and worse! My lady boss is back from her course. I’ve only seen her like for 2 days before she went overseas. During that 2 days, I didn’t have any communications with her but by looking at how she does things, her tone and character, just gives me the creeps. Hell has no fury like a woman’s scorn. I’ve been living my life like this, literally, everytime I step into the office. The first week was alright, second fine, third worse…..It’s been just 1 month since I started work, I’m getting so sick of going to work. When I didn’t have work, I try so hard to find one. When I’m working, I dread going to work!

So like I said, women are damn bloody scarey when they’re agitated or pissed. This collegue of mine, Evelyn, she’s like the nice “girl-next-door” kind of woman. This one time 1 week ago, she suddenly screamed into the phone, not like a horror-movie-kind-of-scream but those ARGH!-kinds, then she started talking at bullet-train speed, with a very agitated voice. I’d some documents to pass to her at that point of time, seeing her in such a state, I didn’t dare to approach her. I had a feeling she might rip my ribcage off if I get close to that cougar…..oh man…..I had to wait like 40 minutes before she entered her comfort zone.

So many things, so little time. I don’t give a damn anymore, I’m going home even if I can’t finish my work. Unless they restrict me from going home, I’m not going to put up a I-CAN-DO-WHATEVER-YOU-PASS-TO-ME-BY THE-END-OF-THE-DAY impression. The work here is never,never,never ever going to be finished. No more being too nice a guy, I’m just a bloody temp who’s leaving in 2 months time. Who gives a hoot right?

 Bottomline : Slack while I can!!!!!!!!!!!!

So many events happened recently. Just too many to name.

May

Celebrated Bao Bei’s birthday by making pek kuei for her, with the help of my mum.
Celebrated our 6th anniversary by treating her to Oiishi Pizza. The only reason why it took me about 2 years to finally make an order from them was because they were giving out a free desert banana pizza with every purhase. Hello Mr. Kiam Siap.

Year after year, I’ve always wondered how she and I have made it so far. It’s too wide a topic to talk about here, speaking of the many ups and downs.  I do believe that in order to keep a relationship going, one must be able to compromise, feel for the other and care for the other. Should any of these factors be missing in your life, you must decide for yourself in what you really want to have in a relationship. It’s not easy to get a relationship going solid strong but we’ve done it and I’m certainly very proud of it.

On the last week of May, I found myself a day job for a 1 week assignment. I’d been working from 9am-6pm from Monday to Friday, and subsequently 6.30-10.30pm Thursday to Sunday. The day job was verbally hectic, calling guests regarding invitations and confiriming their attendance. Some typical sai-kang filing and packing. People there were nice but what made me want to go to work every morning was the drink dispencer there. Espresso, cappucino, double espresso, milo…..oh man….. On Thursday I’d worked from 9-6 and then 6.30-10.30. How long did I work? You do the calculations. How did I manage to eat my dinner? Well, after 2 weeks, I started making friends with the Indochine people beside me. They serve food and drinks, I serve ice cream. Every night, I get to eat, potato wedges, french fries, my usual 7-up, a little red/white wine, some beer if i could but it tastes really bad….I forgot what the brand of the beer was…., HAMBURGERs, hotdogs,CHICKEN WINGS!!! Omg, seriously, machiam barbeque session huh? Of course I’m also human la, give them some ice cream to eat and of course, I’m also not cruel to myself and my collegue, since I’m THE MASTER OF THE REFRIGERATOR, muahahaha. So yea, free food to eat, slack job, just the $$ count and stock taking that’s infuriating sometimes, overall, it’s a good job. Got to know some people, make friends and all, not bad an experience. The company I worked sucks anyway, least I know now. To state them would be making this entry too long to read. Just to name a few, no torchlights until I ask them (I work in the dark when the play starts), puts a bloody huge umbrella over the cart which blocks the wind, no mini fan for me as I persipire alot, working on muddy ground, management has the cheek to ask me to go to shops and ask them to change into small notes of $5 when i pass by, many last minute decisions made by management. But I do agree that with all the free food, everything’s all right to me ^^

June

Got a new job. Replacing my Poly friend Stanley as a HR Assistant. Job scope is not very confusing, just need to get the hang of it. However, there’s so many little things and so little time. The amount of pile up work is alot and my friend left me ALOT and ALOT of shit LOL. No biggie, he reccommeded me this well paid job, I can’t have much to complain about. Treat him for lunch on the 1st day. The Malay Chicken rice stall on the 2nd floor of Goldenshoe Complex is fantastic!

My mum works there, my cousin works there, Bao Bei works there, Darrell will meet me for lucnch. Seriously, lunch time not bored but I would like to have some time alone haha. Buy back to the office and eat there, drinks provided FOC. The weather is so bloody warm, I really buei tahan, never once at lunch my face is not covered in perspiration.

PC SHOW

Went to the PC show on a public holiday. A definate wrong move! I wore slippers but my foot only got stepped on once or twice. That didn’t matter much but I got pushed around so many times, this bloody mother fucker just shoved me aside and I ended up almost falling, pushing other people around me as well. Chaotic, some people even bring their maids and baby tramps. I mean seriously, do you ever see a maid asking questions on products such as those at the PC Show? Nevermind, maybe I’m too stereotypical BUT do you see infants smiling at sales people? You cant even see them behind the showcases laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
other than that, this year’s show was a total letdown. All they hype about the last PC Show just because last year’s crowd and number of retailers were a record, was just a eye-candy cover to a rotten, mediocre book. This year’s exhibition only holds 1 floor of exhibits and many big names weren’t there, just to name a few, Creative ( as they have their own Creative Warehouse Sale ), Nvidia, ATI Tech, etc. This year’s show, to me, concentrated so much on LCD tvs, printers and protable media players (PMP). The only thing I enjoyed at the show was the product from Samsung. It’s a digital camera-PMP; plays mp3 as well. Other than its bulky size, the appearance is stylish and interface is user-friendly. Introducing, the NV 3

I sincerely apologize for the lack of updates. Been busy these days, will update by next friday. Till then, take care.





The Saga continues…..

15 05 2007

I just gave the Exams Office a call. I’m so fucking pissed.

They told me that a request for such letters are out NOT ALLOWED. I would have to write in to the exams department to request for such. WTF MAN! What’s the difference of me calling the EXAMS OFFICE and writing a letter to the exams office? I might as well talk to the principal right?

Bloody officer bitches, always hang up on me when I’ve yet to complete my sentences. Fucking kind of services. CB…..





Fucked inside-out, upside-down….

15 05 2007

Just got a call this morning from CMPB ( Central Manpower Base ) again. Some problem regarding my official graduating date again. I shall revise the earlier encounters.

Last week, I gave CMPB a call to reuqest for an earlier intake, as I found out, Singapore Polytechnic has yet to inform CMPB of my February Graduation. As I repeated 1 module during my 2nd year, IF I AM NOT WRONG, the bloody Singapore poly system did not update my particulars about fitting back into a normal timetable ( those who repeat modules and could not schedule in their time tables would have to retain for 1/2 a year to complete their diploma ). Apparently in their data base, I am RETAINED. Bloody fuck.

So I called CMPB personels, this lady told me that what she needed, to confirm my graduation, was a letter of some sort that indicates my graduation. It took me 1/2 an hour trying to get the right numbers into the Results Department of Singapore Poly. The bitchy operator gave those kinda ” Y u disturb me huh? U little kid, get out of my face” attitude. CB sia. So I told her my situation and she replied, ” What u talking? The result slip got right u are graduated what! Huh?!”. I was silenced…..

So this morning, this lady from CMPB told me that she received the letter that states my graduation BUT now she needs my exact graduation date. She told me what  I did was wrong the other time, I mean wth la….you tell me do (a) i do (a), now u ask me do (b) and talk about me making a mistake of  doing (a). Totally screwed……..

Now, I would have to ask the Polytechnic to send a certified letter, with the school’s stamp and all, to indicate my graduation date. With such a Exams officer incharged, I’m not sure if the school would help me out….

I had asked, if I do not do those that were mentioned, i may be enlisted in December or March.

KNN $%@%#$@%$@^#$@%$^#$@&^$%&^%#*&^@%!^#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
