Well once again i'm back here... And yah it's been a week again.
Work has been so sucky that I realli wanna baff... To cut the long story short, there are actually some
stupid senseless obasans who love to eat, sleep, talk and laugh loudly (or rather hysterically) and bully temp staffs. Obviously the emphasis here is the part on
bullying temp staffs as they realli have nothing better to do but purposely walk past ur desk, see wat u r doing, and complain to ur supervisors. The worse thing is, we din even do anything wrong and they would paint such a bad picture of us in front of our supervisors. F them man. I had actually intended to quit rite away, but i realised i wld hafta wait for my movie passes to come 1st before i can officially leave that dreaded place... Realli buay tahan liaoz can.
Juz watched Evelyn Tan and Darren Lim's wedding juz now... Oh my god it's juz so sweet, perfect and fairy-tale-like... I mean wow that's my dream wedding lor, complete wif all the romantic details... And yah the wae the couple looked at each other, smiling wif tears in their eyes... It's realli so touching lor and it's as if u can feel their happiness too... U'll realli have this urge to juz get married rite away. Haha but i guez i must realli make sure i find the rite guy (definition: a romantic, caring and sensitive guy, someone u can imagine spending the rest of ur life wif) first before i eva think of getting married coz i realli dun wanna regret my decision next time...

Oh well it's been a week... So much for updating here soon huh?
Anywae this week hasn't been a good one... Firstly, i'm officially transferred from the helpline team to the email team... Doing emails is actually not THAT bad, but imagine me having to leave my cosy 'home' that i've set up for the past 2+ weeks and yah settle down at a small isolated corner at level 2 and face the com 24/7... No more dealing wif 'living things' (taxpayers), instead, i hafta deal wif 'non-living things' (emails)... Seriously, i realli hate this whole change of work nature and work environment and all, but wat can i do? Hai...
Finally watched 'My Girl' wif dear todae... Hmmm not as nice as i had expected i guez, coz the excellent reviews and all had lifted my expectations of this movie... Nevertheless it's a veri simple and heartwarming movie, which realli brings back fond memories of childhood (well, not that i had a wonderful childhood or anything)... The games featured in the movie like play-acting, zero-point, 'fighting' with rubber bands and stuff juz bring back this overwhelming sense of nostalgia, making me feel as if i were young once again... Oh and not forgetting the sweet-and-pretty female lead and boyish-looking male lead (Focus Jirakul and Chalee Trairattana), their totally natural acting was, indeed, the 'main attraction' of the show... Sweet and pure innocence lingers in the air, but as the credits roll and the lights come up, i can't help but feel a sense of loss as i knoe i'm back to the world of reality again...

Okok... I knoe i haven't been here for a LOOOONG time... I've been so tired every nite when i come home from work and thus i din have time to update here... My apologies...
Well so many things happened within the span of these 2 weeks... Life has kinda changed for me yet again... And i'm a person who doesn't realli like changes...
First and foremost, i started work at IRAS... I'm working 5.5 daes a week, weekdaes 8am - 4.30pm and sat 8.30am - 1pm... I'm under the e-filing helpline department, and my job is basically to take calls and help taxpayers wif their enquires regarding e-filing... Calls have been coming in pretty slowly for the past 2 weeks, averaging at ard 150 per dae... And since there r ard 16 ppl in my department, each one of us onli answer like 10 calls per dae... Wat do we do when our phones r not ringing? Well, we talk, read newspapers and books, eat and even sleep (yes it's allowed!)... Sounds like a pretty good life huh?
The biggest event of last week was, undoubtedly, the release of the A level results... I certainly dun feel like announcing my results to the whole world over here, so all i can sae is, i din do well... Not good enuff for me to enter my dream course - mass communications in NTU... I may seem totally alrite usually, but when the nite comes ard and all, i can sometimes get veri upset abut this... To me, it's juz like rheumatism, u'll feel fine usually, but once in a while it can come back to haunt u and get u down... After all, i'm dealing wif a shattered dream and oso a sense of regret which may stay wif me for a long long time... But i guez i'll heal somedae...
For the time being i've been doing a lot of research on the courses available in the universities and attending talks etc... I even took leave for later todae juz to go to the open hses of NTU and NUS... Hopefully i wld be able to gather more info about the courses i can take and finally decide on wat to put down on the application form... But sad to sae, my choices r quite limited... Hai...
Ok i guez that'll be all for now... I promise to update here again soon... I promise.
