Hope the long wait reaps good returns.

Sent an e-mail to Wendy to follow up on the status of my application just now. Right after I sent out the e-mail, I received a Out of Office AutoReply from her to inform me that she is away from office and will only be back on 1 December. =/ Guess I can only wait patiently for HR to get back to me then.

Jo should see this.

Passed by the wet market on my way out to lunch and saw Australian lemons selling for S$0.40 each. I wonder why did we have to pay A$0.90 for a lemon in Perth then?

I will love him for as long as I live because I know he loves me.

No more nonsense from Ivy. Well, at least I don't see any nonsense on facebook anymore and I assume that she has given up all hopes to take my Kenneth away from me. I know that she can continue to harass him via PM, call or SMS but I trust him to ignore her if she does. He knows I will spot check on him every now and then so I doubt he dares to keep in contact with her in private anyway. =P

I have yet to hear from HR regarding my transfer. Will follow up with Wendy tomorrow if I still don't hear from them by then. Anyway, I will tender my resignation next month if my application is unsuccessful. Dear has promised to 养我 if I cannot find a job after I leave my current one. He said he just want me to be happy. Awwwww... ...sooooo sweeeeet~! I was so touched that I almost dropped a tear when he said that. I love my dear!!! =D

Dear's friend from NJC, Shun Liang gave us (Dear and I, JingDe and Edna, Kaddy and Kris, Benjamin and Swee San) a treat at MOF @My Izakaya on Sunday.

Dear ordered a unagi hot stone rice and I had a salmon bibimbap hot stone rice. It was delicious! You gotta keep stirring the rice as you eat because it will be burnt if you leave it at the bottom for too long. I like to leave the rice to burn though because it is so tasty and crunchy! =P Sushi was not as good as the main course. The sushi rice tasted like it was mixed with DIY sushi rice mix. =X Dessert was my favourite macha ice-cream! I just can't get enough of macha ice-cream. It is so yummy! =P

Sat around to chit chat with the ladies after dinner. I will soon be the only Miss in the tai-tai club because Swee San and Benjamin will be tying the knot next January! I wonder when I can upgrade my membership too. =/

I always enjoy chatting with the tai-tais because we share the same sentiments most of the time. While the guys were planning a guys only trip to Bangkok, we ladies had agreed that none of us will give our consent for them to go. If they want to go, they will have to bring us along. =P The guys abandoned their plan in the end. =)

It is a short week this week because it is Hari Raya Haji on Friday. A pity I gotta work on Saturday morning. Well, better than nothing. I really hate working.

My tai-tai day.

The interview went well. The interviewers were easy-going and very humourous. No sweat. =) Just needa wait for a call from HR to brief me on the contract and remuneration packagae now.

Had lunch with Chin Heng at Vivo City after the interview. It was a short meeting because the good boy had not finished his tutorial. =/

Wanted to wait for dear to knock off and send me to the driving range for my golf lessons but I forgot to bring my shoes. Went home to change instead. When I was done and about to leave home, Jason called to postpone the lesson because the rain was too heavy. =(

Since I was free, I gave myself a facial. Didn't have the time and energy to do so after I joined the bank. Felt so relaxed when I finally did. Mmmmm... ...

Dear was telling me about his fish on facebook so I swung by to take a look. The first thing I saw on his profile when the page loaded was a video of Andy Lau in a Sovil Titus commercial uploaded by an Ivy with the caption, "WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX OUR WATCH?" This is not the first time I saw her post on dear's profile. She had been very rude all the while and she kept bringing up "past memories". All her posts suggest some "things" going on between her and dear. The video was the last I could tolerate. I asked dear if she is his ex-girlfriend. He said she is but the relationship ended long time ago and there is nothing between them now. I told him I don't like what she posted and he removed all her posts. I know dear loves me and still does but I am still upset. It is obvious that this Ivy is vying with me for his love and attention. I don't know what to do now. ='(

I will SHINE. =)

Wendy Lim from Call Centre has invited me to her office in Alexandra for a second round of interview tomorrow. The position I have applied for is that of a Customer Service Officer.

Doesn't seem like an upgrade to you, does it? You are right on that. I wanna do something "lighter" but still pay at least my current basic. This was the best I could find and is still the best I can find.

Hwee referred me for the position after he found out that I was desperately looking for a non-sales job. Have to thank the man for the helping hand.

If all goes well, I will work in the Alexandra office, where Kim is based. Dear works in Telok Blangah, which is nearby. Excellent arrangement.

Please pray for me.

Lost my direction.

I broke down yesterday. Started dropping tears while I was on my way home, on the train. I tried suppressing my tears but it was a futile attempt. And thus, I sobbed all the way from Marina Bay to Admiralty. :'( Continued to cry my eyes out when I was home, in the privacy of my own room.

What happened?

Being a banker was my dream. It was the ONLY thing I wanted to do after graduation. I was happy with my chosen career path until the most unfortunate event happened. We were hit by the worst financial crisis ever. The whole banking landscape was set for a major makeover after that. Everything changed. All the privileges of being a banker were being taken away from us overnight and only the stress and sh*tty work remain. I HATE my job now.

So, what can I do if I hate my job? Quit and find another one? Easier said than done. I just lost my ambition. I don't know what I really wanna do now. I have always said I wanna be a tai-tai but I have tried and know that I will be sick of staying at home once I have rested enough. I felt weak and worthless. I am lost.

When having an A is no good.

He offered to give me the spare key to his Integra BUT what is the use of giving me the key to a manual sports car when I hold a class 3A driving license?! @#$%^&*
