Crystal Jade

Had breakfast at Crystal Jade this morning. Reached Causeway Point at about 945AM thinking that it was 1045AM all along. I was kinda blur when I woke up. Maybe 'coz of the terrible stomachache I had during the night. =S

Went shopping for groceries at Cold Storage and NTUC after that. Bought loads of things. Mainly food. HaHa~!

Came home at about 3PM and started clearing my wardrobe. Threw out some old clothes and packed away my old school uniforms/T-shirt. After clearing, I still have a wardrobe full of clothes. I think I better stop shopping for a while. =P Packed my luggage too. Leaving this Friday.

Had spagetthi for dinner. Sis cooked. I washed. YuM~! =)

SingTel

Today's my last day with SingTel. JiaRui came over and waited for me to knock off. Slacked the whole day but I still managed to hit more than 60 calls. I think it takes skills to hit 30 calls a day just like Albert did when he was there. I never knew how he did it. Anyway, his application for permanent part time was approved. I just hope he will hit more calls when he goes back to work.

Nages came and assigned a girl, Judy to me for double-banking. Kinda funny 'coz it was my last day and I spent most of my time walking around instead of taking calls. HaHa~! Poor girl. She didn't get to learn much from me today. =P

Everyone was expecting my farewell e-mail today. I didn't send any. Dan and Vinci asked. I think I was just too lazy to type anything. No pictures were taken too. Except for one taken with my team leader, Jun. I wonder if I will miss working at SingTel. Well, I don't know now since I only left that place just a few hours ago.

Had dinner with JiaRui at Junction 8 just now. She accompanied me home after that before travelling back to Toa Payoh to meet her other friend. According to her, she haven't been home for 2 days. I thought what happened to her when Audrey told me she went drinking with HuiFen last night. It turned out that she was just feeling bored. PhEw~!

I am so tired after a day's work. Tonight, I shall have a good rest. GoodNight to me. TaTa~! =)

Seafood Feast

Went to JB with JiaRui and Audrey yesterday. Had a fun day together. Shopping, shopping and more shopping! HeHe~! We reached City Square at about 11AM and had brunch at the Chinese restaurant. Actually, only JiaRui ate there. I had fast food from MaryBrown. Audrey only had a packet of Milo. After brunch, it is time for shopping. Bought a blue blouse with polka dot prints, a pair of flats, a pair of heels, an overall and handbag. After all those shopping, we went for a seafood feast. Ordered chilli crabs, sting ray, FuRong egg, sambal kang kong and hot plate tofu. Yes, just the three of us. HaHa~! Despite ordering so much, we finished every bit of the food. The meal only cost us RM77, which was about S$35. JiaRui decides that we go there more often. I agree with her totally. HaHa~! Afterall, it is so much faster and nearer to go JB than to go town and the things there are so much cheaper. =P

Received my SIM Student Membership Card last night. Read the letter and realised that it acts as a CashCard, a library card and a discount card. Nice card.

Most probably going to SIM on Monday to make payment. JiaRui did not receive the letter. I hope she will receive it soon so that we can go to SIM together on Monday.

Went out for lunch with RoseMary and Megan just now. Megan happens to be Mr Morais' wife. Mr Morais was my Physics teacher in secondary school. RoseMary was telling us about a trip to Batam which her friend is organising. I feel like going too. Maybe during my term break in September. =)

Last week with SingTel. I am starting to count down to the number of work days left. Can't be more happy. HaHa~!

My Tutor Friend

Watched a Korean movie, My Tutor Friend on Channel U last night. The male lead is so good-looking and cool! The way he professed his love for his tutor was also very cute. HeE~! Anyway, it was such a funny movie that I laughed throughout the show. HaHa~!

Not working today. Woke up at 9AM. Meeting JiaRui to register for the Basic Theory Test later. Mommy came back from the market and saw me all dressed up. She asked me where am I going to. I told her and she started nagging. She complained that I did not tell her before going out and that I am always out. I think I've been a good girl for too long. Always reporting to her my whereabouts. When I stop doing that, she starts nagging. I am already 19 this year, but I feel that I am being treated like a primary school kid. ArGh~! I think mommy is being too strict with me. My sister gave her number to a RI guy and that guy keeps calling her but my parents are OK with it. They will not even accept me talking to a male friend. They will start asking if he is my boyfriend. If it is really what they think, I will have more than a dozen boyfriends. SiGh~!

I was doing some filing for the house last night. Didn't manage to finish 'coz there were too many papers to be filed. Mommy was nagging that I didn't file her documents and started saying that I am selfish. I was just trying to be nice. Can't she be more appreciative? SiGh~!

Was reading JiaRui's blog. She mentioned about Vinci being her male escort 'coz he lives in the same block of flats. I think it will be good to have a male escort. HaHa~! At least there is a guy around to protect you especially when it is already dark. Don't really like going home alone late at night. The quiet atmosphere sends the chill down my spine.

ChunHern SMS me this morning to greet me good day. He had been doing that quite often these days. It reminds me of our secondary school days when he used to SMS me every day and night without fail. I missed those days. Anyway, it is all in the past now. I am just glad he is still my friend. =)

My flu is getting better but my throat is still quite sore. I think I need honey.

Suki Yuki Yaki

Had dinner at Suki Yuki Yaki with JiaRui, MayHui, Audrey, Albert, Jake, Winston, Robby and Vinci last night. I mixed up my off day and thus Thursday's gathering was brought forward to yesterday. Audrey made a reservation for dinner at 7PM. She told me reservation was made under my name though it was she who called the restaurant. After work, Vinci, Albert and I took a bus to town. We were supposed to meet JiaRui and MayHui outside Cineleisure at 630PM, but we were late. We rushed all the way to Cineleisure only to find out that the reservation was made under Miss Audrey Teo. Never mind. We told the guy reservation was made for dinner at 7Pm but he said Audrey changed it to 730PM. We had no choice but to stroll around Cineleisure before Audrey comes. When 730Pm comes, Audrey was still on the way. We went back to the restaurant and talk to a lady regarding the reservation. She told us that they do not take in reservations. -_- We were all very angry and almost disputed. When Audrey finally came, the lady was very nice and arranged for tables to be cleared for us. We all looked at Audrey in amazement. We only settled down at about 745PM. The dinner was filled with fun and laughters, especially when we sat with Robby and JiaRui who spent the night fighting for prawns. They even had a prawn catching competition. HaHa~! Went home with Vinci after dinner. The rest went to KBox.

Will be going to JB again on 27 July. This time, it is with JiaRui and Audrey. Vinci might be coming along with us too. I told mommy about it last night. I was surprised she did not raise any objections. She just nagged a little about me going out very often nowadays. Phew~!

Two weeks more and I will be out of this place. HoOrAy~!

City Square

Went to JB with PeiYan and RoseMary yesterday. Mommy came along too. We went shopping at City Square. Had breakfast at a Chinese restaurant in the shopping mall. After breakfast, we started our shopping. Went for an eye examination at the optical shop and got contact lens. I struggled with the application for about 15 minutes before we continue with our shopping. I think I need more time to get used to putting the contact lens in. Bought a pair of shoes and a few T-shirts. We reached at about 1115AM and only went back at 7PM. I left with mommy first. PeiYan and RoseMary left later. PeiYan went to get transition lenses and thus the delay. It was a great day. Haven't been shopping for quite some time. Finally got a chance yesterday. =)

Jun SMS me yesterday. She called for the whole team to report for work an hour earlier today because our fellow counterparts at the other call centre could not work due to some system error. I had to wake up at 5AM this morning because of this. Was telling Rani about this just now. She was saying whenever they have problems, we have to suffer, but whenever we have problems, they do not bother. I think this is quite true. Anyway, Jun just e-mailed us to tell us that we can leave an hour earlier today due to the arrangement to report earlier. I think SingTel just do not want to pay for overtime. This company is getting stingy. It is a good thing I am leaving soon.

It was also JiaRui's last day at SingTel yesterday. I really envy her. She can enjoy herself while I am still stuck here. Anyway, it won't be long before my turn comes. By then, I will have 2 full days to myself. Yes, ONLY 2 days. SiGh~! No choice, need more money to satisfy my shopping crave. HaHa~!

JiaRui e-mailed us yesterday. In her e-mail, she mentioned reefwalk at KuSu Island. She was asking if we will be interested in the activity. I think this is not a bad idea. I haven't try that before and I think it will be quite fun if we can all go and explore marine life. I have never been to KuSu Island too. In fact, I have never been to any of the islands around Singapore other than our dear old Sentosa Island. Alright, I know I am kinda mountain-tortise. Please pardon me for that. Anyway, I hope we can go for the reefwalk. Really looking forward to that. =)

I think my resignation is approved. I wonder when is the exit interview. I think the exit interview is redundant. They are always asking for feedbacks but no improvements. SiGh~!

I am very sick. My flu is still as bad. The medicine don't seem to be working for me. I feel terrible.

Six

Watched 'Six' with JiaRui, Audrey and Jake on Sunday. JiaRui didn't watch the show at all. She was listening to Jake's IPodMini and covering herself with Audrey's sweater throughout the whole show. The show wasn't that scary. I only jumped once when they scream. In fact, some parts of the show were quite funny. The ending of the show was a sad one though.

Before the show, JiaRui came over to my house. I warned her of the mess but she insist on taking a look. She said that my room is not messy, but OK. HaHa~! She is just being nice. I really need to tidy up my room before school starts. Anyway, we read the magazines and talked about some beauty tricks before leaving my house to meet Audrey at Causeway Point.

Changed to Jun's team yesterday to join the permanent team. So far, so good. Will be tendering my resignation letter tomorrow. I find it a bit awkward to tender my resignation 3 days after I change to the new team, but I got to do it since I am required to give 2 weeks notice.

Going to JB with PeiYan and RoseMary this Thursday, our off day. Apparently, Jariah did not approve my OT application. I heard from Audrey that the management is cutting OT cost. SiGh~!

Not feeling well today. Getting dizzy spells and cramps. My body is aching too. I need Panadol.

Rainbow

I can slowly see colours in my surrounding now. The rainbow is starting to appear in the bright blue sky after the storm. The garden is full of bright beautiful flowers. The sunflowers are smiling from ear to ear as the sun shines brightly on them. It is as though I am in Wonderland. I feel great! Last month with SingTel. I have never felt so positive before.

I have the urge to shop. HuiJun is supposed to go to town with me last Saturday but the trip was called off because she lost her EZ-Link card. Speaking of the EZ-Link card, mine expired. Got a new one at $15, with a value of only $7. To make it worse, the design is so ugly. SiGh~! Met up with Pauline and RouShen at Bugis instead. Went to Bugis Street to get the straw bag. It is the same straw bag JiaRui and Audrey have. Same colour as the one JiaRui has. HaHa~!

I taught JiaRui how to post pictures on her blog using PhotoBucket yesterday. Today, she taught me how to post pictures using Blogger. HaHa~! Information sharing.

It has been a long day. Extended my service for 2 hours today. Gonna work OT for the whole of this week. I need the money. SiGh~!

Sleepover

Met up with EeHui, WeiQi, DanQing, Daniel, XianWang and Jason last night. It has been a long six months since we last met. The guys look so much stronger and darker now. HeE~! We stayed overnight at EeHui's house. It was supposed to be a sleepover, but it turned into a mahjong session when XianWang started teaching us how to play. HaHa~! Jason and Daniel joined us later as they were caught up at the NDP rehearsal.

The guys were talking non-stop about their NS experience the whole night. XianWang was telling us how lost he felt when he was first released from Pulau Tekong. DanQing talks about his physically relaxing but metally taxing work at his camp. Jason demonstrated how the NPCC march. Daniel complained about his finger nails getting dirty because of the carbon under the suit he has to wear for chemical defence. HaHa~!

EeHui, WeiQi, DanQing and I did not sleep the whole night. We were rotating between Bridge, DaiDee and Mahjong. The attic turned into a gambling den after we arrive at the place. HaHa~!

Daniel was the first to hit the pillows. While he was sleeping, WeiQi took pictures of his sleeping postures. They were so funny we couldn't concentrate on playing our games. HaHa~! When he just arrive at EeHui's place, he said that he will be leaving earlier the next morning to see his friend off at the airport. As the four of us did not the sleep, we decided to give him a wake up call at 6AM. We shook him but he just ignored us and continued sleeping. After reminding him that his friend is leaving for Hong Kong this morning for studies and might not be coming back, he merely replied that he is not going and went back to sleep. We finally give up and continued with our games. At 745AM, we woke everyone up so that we can go out for breakfast together. Everyone woke up except for Daniel. This time, EeHui decided to use the alarm the police gave her to ward off perverts to wake him up. The alarm was too loud and we decided to switch it off. He woke up but fell back onto the sofa again after a while. WeiQi suddenly stood beside him with a bottle of vanilla coke, threatening to pour drink on him if he doesn't wake up within 3 counts. He woke up immediately. HaHa~! It was a hilarious scene.

We bidded EeHui's father goodbye and went to Clementi hawker centre for breakfast. We all sat around a small table and started talking again. After a while, we finally ordered our food. All of us had roti prata except for XianWang and Jason who had fried carrot cake instead. After breakfast, we stayed around for more army matters. We left at about 930AM 'coz I got to rush to work. All of us were so tired that we all fell asleep on the train ride home. Luckily WeiQi woke me up, otherwise I'd have slept past my stop. HeE~!

I missed them, lots. I must thank EeHui for organising this gathering. XianWang and I were pushing the responsibility to each other all the time and ended up doing nothing. SiGh~! With EeHui leaving for Australia to further her studies, I guess we won't be having any gathering anytime soon. =( *SoBz*

Music to the ears

Attended a product briefing by Sony Ericsson yesterday. It is on the K750i and the upcoming J300i. The presenter was holding a W800i, which attracted my attention.

Somy Ericsson W800i

It is orange in colour. One of my favourite colours. HeE~! The specifications is similar to K750i's. Although I have always liked my mobile phone to be simple, the various functions of this phone makes me want to buy it. It can play MP3 like a WalkMan, take pictures like a CyberShot and allow 3D gaming like a PSP. ArGh~! Temptations! Luckily it is not launched yet.

Going swimming with my family later in the afternoon. Haven't been swimming for ages. I wonder if I still remember how to swim. HaHa~!

EeHui SMS me yesterday. It is regarding our gathering this weekend. She was giving us some suggestions on what to do before/during our sleepover at her place. I have not replied her. Consulted DanQing yesterday, he too have no idea which to choose. He claims that he will go with the majority. If everyone thinks like him, the majority will be to go with the majority. SiGh~!

JobHop

The guys are staying with SingTel as permanent part time. I can't imagine myself staying there throughout my 3 years of studies. This place is too stressful for me. JiaRui was suggesting that we become part time waitress. I got sick of that job when I was in secondary school, so I suggested we become tutors instead. I think being a waitress is no difference from being a customer service officer. Tutoring will be a better choice, at least the time is more flexible.

JiaRui just told me she will be quitting either next week or on 10 July. SiGh~! Everyone is leaving, except for me. No choice, I need the money. The school fees is enough to crush me.

ZhiFa just gave me two numbers. One for job assignments, the other for tuition assignments. I think I will call the tuition agency tomorrow during my break to see if they can arrange something for me. The sooner I start, the sooner I can break away from SingTel.

I miss school.

School

YiPpEe! I am going back to school! HeE~! Just did the course registration this morning. The portal was down yesterday, so we had to wait till today to complete the registration. I had been trying since I reach the office this morning. I wasn't able to access until JiaMei tried and realised that the portal is up again. I quickly SMS JiaRui to get her to log in and register so that we can have the same time table. No reply from her. I decided to call her instead. She picked up the call with a low and sleepy tone. She was still in bed. When I told her the portal is up, she suddenly became very energetic. HaHa~! Not too long after we hang up, she SMS me to tell me that the software on her computer is not compaitable with the eCR, and she need me to register for her. I registered for her and confirmed the submission at the same time. No more changes. HeE~! Our time table is as follows:

Tuesday - FF-ECONS (Afternoon)
Wednesday - BB PBF (Afternoon)
Thurday - CC IBM (Morning)
Friday - EE STATS 1 & MATHS 1 (Morning)

Wanted to take POA in year one, but the classes are all full when we went in to register. Never mind, Daddy said he will tutor me for POA since he used to study accounting. HeE~!

Will be tendering my resignation in a month's time. This time, it is for real. I heard from JiaMei that there will be an exit interview. SiGh~! By the way, JiaMei tendered her resignation last Wednesday. This Wednesday will be her last day with us in SingTel. She found a new job with Timberland, which is paying her $1.5K every month. I am happy for her, but at the same time sad that she is leaving us so soon, sooner that I expected.

I am so sleepy. Haven't been sleeping well these few nights. Had been sleeping late and waking up early since last Friday. *YaWnZ* I need sleep. I shall sleep early tonight, so that I will have the energy to work OT this week. Gotta work more OT to earn more money for my school fees. It is burning a hole in my pocket. A big one. SiGh~!

Fest

Went to the Creatives Fest yesterday to get the speakers and the earphones. Spent a lot yesterday. Gotta work more OT now. SiGh~!

Keith was there too. He gave me a fright. He tapped me on the shoulder and when I turn around, no one was there. It is nice to see him again. It has been some time since I last saw him. He will be going to Thailand soon. According to him, it is for good, though he will be back for occasional visits.

No more off day for me till 7 June. *YaWnZ* My dark eye rings are getting darker. Soon I'll look like a panda. *IrEnE sHaKeS hEr HeAd HaRd* No, I better sleep early tonight.

SiangPing SMS me a few days ago. She asked if she could come to my house and talk to my parents about her products. I did not agree to her request 'coz I don't even see my parents, sometimes few days in a row. Then, she asked if I can introduce any relatives to her. I told her frankly that I don't even approach my relatives though I myself is in MLM. When it comes to money, it is better not to involve relatives. After that, I never hear from her anymore.

I seriously need to tidy my room before school starts. It looks as if a cyclone just swept by.

I am looking forward to the start of the school term. This is the first time I felt this way. Maybe it is 'coz I hate working for SingTel. Anyway, I am preparing to quit. Most likely end of July. HaHa~!

Strapped

My heart aches. I snapped my dear Zen Micro's earphone's wire yesterday. SiGh~! I gotta get a replacement. Lucky there is fest at Creative this weekend. Though there is a fest, it will still cost me $35 to get a new pair of earphones. I am gonna get red colour to match my Zen Micro this time. Will be getting the matching red speakers too. There are great offers for members. Actually wanted to get the pouch as well but can't now since I gotta get new earphones.

Finally met Pauline and RouShen yesterday. We actually arranged to meet at my office but they took the wrong route and ended up in Hougang. Initially, they told me they were in Hougang Mall, so I asked a lot of people and finally managed to reach Hougang Mall at 9PM. When I was there, I tried to locate them. It took us another half an hour to realise that they are not at Hougang Mall but at Hougang Point. I had to take a bus back to Ang Mo Kio to meet them. As if that is not bad enough for me, my handphone's battery went empty and I can't contact them at all since I can't remember any of their numbers. After pacing up and down Ang Mo Kio MRT serveral times, I finally saw them running towards me at 10PM. We walked around Ang Mo Kio for a while and decided to head back to the MRT at 10.30PM 'coz all the shops were already closed by that time. They accompanied me to Admiralty MRT and took the train back to Yishun from there. I am so touched! HeE~!

I am so tired now. Only reached home at 11PM last night. After I finish washing up and eating my dinner/supper, it was already 12AM. I woke up at 6.30AM this morning. *YaWnZ* I am not in the mood for work.

JiaRui went to SIM to make payment this morning. I hate to say this, but I should be going to SIM for the same purpose soon. HaI~!

Decisions

Daddy rejected my proposal, so we will be travelling on the company package. Flight details will be as follow:

05 Aug SIN/DPS SQ146-1640/1910
08 Aug SIN/DPS SQ143-1305/1535

05 Aug is a Friday. I wonder how are we gonna make it to the airport on time given my sis' lessons will only end at 2PM on that day. To make matters worse, River Valley High School is in Commonwealth. I guess she'll have to miss lessons then, but what do we write in the excuse letter? We'll think about it later.

Today is 22 May. I still have not receive anything from NTU and SMU, and I need to reply SIM by 31 May. SiGh~! Though I am slowly losing hope, I do not want to reply SIM before I receive a reply from NTU and SMU. I don't want to regret making the wrong decision.

EeHui just SMS me this morning. She is organising a T108 gathering. I feel bad. XianWang kept asking me to organise one but I never had the time to do so. I hope the attendance will be better this time. It is always the same old people attending the gatherings. SiGh~!

XiangHong's birthday is coming soon. Still thinking what to get for her. I just SMS Pauline regarding that. I have yet to receive a reply from her. Hopefully she will reply before I spend all my money. HaHa~!

OG is having a sale from 20 May to 23 May. Might be going down to take a look later today or maybe tomorrow.

My computer is back, but the front USB ports are not fixed. SiGh~! The repairman just changed the whole motherboard. Now I got to reinstall all my programmes again. I am getting sick of this. With so many things to pay for, I wonder when can I get a new PC.

*IrEnE iS sTrEsSeD*

Denpasar

Daddy's company is sponsoring a trip to Bali for him and mommy. I am still trying to convince daddy to let me book 2 tickets for sis and myself, separately. I do not want to travel in the company package. The company package will include lodging but I think we can save on that if we bunk in with my parents since the deluxe suite is so spacious. More savings means more shopping trips for me. HeE~! Another reason will be because I am paying for my own trip. SiGh~!

I was only 7 years old the last time I was in Bali. It's been a long 12 years. My sis was only 6 months old. She wasn't there the last time we went. This will be the first time she is visiting the place. I am sure she is as excited as I was 12 years ago. Poor sis had to stay with my aunt when we were enjoying ourselves. HaHa~!

I went to JB on Tuesday, my off day after 2 weeks of non-stop work. We went to the VIVA office at Taman Molek and was fined for parking without displaying parking coupons. The parking attendants came in a group so we couldn't escape. But, guess what? There was a 30% discount on the parking fine. HaHa~! After paying the fine, we went shopping at Jusco. I love shopping at Jusco 'coz the things there are so much cheaper than other shopping centres. We went to my cousin's house to see baby Phillip later in the evening. He has grown so much bigger now. He is so adorable I am actually reluctant to let go of him. HaHa~!

I am working OT almost every other day. SiGh~! I am very tired, but I need the money. SIM just replied to my application to the University of London external programme. I've been accepted and I am required to pay S$4K upon acceptance.

NTU and SMU have not reply me, and I have to accept SIM beore 31st May 2005. SiGh~!

*IrEnE pRaYs HaRd*

*YaWnZ*

Just came back home after visiting SiangPing at her office. Didn't stay there for long 'coz mommy was rushing me to go home for dinner. Anyway, I wasn't quite happy to stay there either. I was told that it is just an introduction of the job, but it turned out to be an interview in disguise. I was given a form to fill up, which SiangPing claims is for her boss to "know me better". After filling up the form, I noticed that there is a section on the reverse page for me to sign and declare that all the information I had given is true. I was lucky they were having a meeting when I was there, so I wasn't interviewed afterall.

Actually, I wanted to partner SiangPing, but I just can't bring myself to do it after learning about the products they sell. True enough, the incentives are appealing, but the sales volume is just too difficult to maintain. The company sells sleeping products, such as pillows and comforters. I was informed by SiangPing that their products come in sets with prices starting from $1000 onwards. I was thinking, even if I manage to sell in the first month, I won't be able to maintain the same sales volume the following month unless those who purchased the products refer new customers to me, because people don't change new pillows and comforters every other month. Take myself as an example, I've used my pillow for more than 6 years and I am still using it because I am already used to it, and it is still in good condition. You change my pillow today and I will lose my sleep for a month. Then, I will blame the pillow for my insomnia.

I feel like quitting my job now. Though the pay is OK, the work is not. I am so stresed till I give wrong advices to customers. I can't think clearly now. Everytime I go to work, I look forward to knocking off. I get a terrible headache whenever I am at work. SiGh~! I don't like the job, but I got to hold on to it 'coz I need the money. I envy those who have left. Joan will be leaving on Sunday. I am happy for her. I want to tender my resignation, but I haven't save enough. How many times have I said that? I don't know. The only thing I know is I am still stuck with this sick job.

I want to get a new job somewhere else, but it is not easy to find one nowadays. Especially one which offers more than $7/Hr, and work during office hours. SiGh~!

I haven't had a day of rest since last Tuesday. Had been working OT on my rest days. I will also be doing OT tomorrow and on Sunday. I am so tired.

Voice

Just recovered part of my voice today after 4 days of silent torture. People weren't able to make out what I was trying to say and I couldn't understand why they don't understand. Maybe that's what my nightmare was trying to tell me.

*****I dreamt that I was chased around in my own house by a ferocious snake. No voice came out of my throat when I wanted to scream as the snake tried to bite me. I was jolted awake when the snake bit me eventually.*****

The nightmare actually predicted that I will lose my voice. Strange.

I told Radiah about my nightmare. She was telling me that Muslims believe that if a girl dreams of snakes, it means that her Prince Charming will appear soon. I don't know how true is that, but I'd like to meet my Prince Charming soon though. HaHa~!

Sometimes I wonder what kind of a person will my future husband be. I am having wild thoughts now. HaHa~! Enough of my daydreams!

Anyway, I need to get mommy's birthday present by this weekend. I am still trying to decide whether to go today or on Saturday, and I still need to decide what to buy for her. SiGh~! I am so indecisive.

I took a glance at the almost stagnant ShoutBox and realised that Vanessa left a note there. I didn't know she reads my blog. HaHa~! That's no wonder since I seldom blog. =P

It is NTU's examination season now. I wish those affected all the best, especially my dearest cousin, ShuYing. HeE~! =)

Well, it's time for me to go home again. TaTa~! ;)

Zen

I am so sick now. Had wanted to go on MC today, but came afterall. As usual, it's for the sake of money. You can call me a money grubber, I don't care. Just give me the money. Requested for OT for Sunday, but I was rejected. Guess they already know my style by now. Rest on off days(1.5X) and work on rest days(2X). HaHa~!

OK, I shall talk about my new found love, my red-coloured ZEN MICRO. HeE~! This little thing costs me $379 which is equivalent to about 1 1/2 week of work in SingTel. Had always wanted to buy it when it first launched, but waited until the CreativeX Fest 'coz they have launched the new 4GB Zen Micro @$299, but only available in black, white, silver and dark blue. However, the 4GB package doesn't come with all the accessories and I'd have to purchase them separately. In the end, I bought the 5GB package which comes with the full set of accessories and there goes half of my March salary. SiGh~!

Now that I have bought the Zen Micro, my next target will be the Fujitsu S6230 Lifebook. That had been my target for quite some time, but haven't been able to afford it. Moreover, my current PC is giving me a lot of problems, thus giving me more reason to buy the S6230. ShuYing has a Fujitsu S-series Lifebook too. Just wondering if it is the same one I am looking at 'coz her's looks awesome. =) Whatever it is, I need to save up first. SiGh~!

Went to Party World @Orchard last Sunday with Radiah, June, David and Robby. Had a really good and wild time there. HaHa~! Was reluctant to go at first, but June's persistent request made me surrender. We had Halal Chinese food for dinner at Far East Plaza before heading to Party World. June wanted to have Hainanese chicken rice but we had to switch 'coz Radiah is not used to eating in a Chinese restaurant.

Might be going to Malaysia, most likely Batu Pahat tomorrow. Will be leaving the house early in the morning so that I will be in time to have breakfast there. HeE~! I am gonna shake everyone up at 5AM tomorrow. HaHa~!

June asked if we wanna go Sentosa with her on Monday. I was like "HuH~? Sentosa on a Monday?" Anyway, I am not going.

ChunHern SMS me this morning. He woke me up and I snapped at him for doing that. He actually didn't feel anythig. HaHa~! He claims that his instructors are much more nasty than I am and he got used to it. Then I asked him how has he been and he gave me a very bad analogy. I will not go into too much details about the analogy here though. HaHa~! By the way, haven't seen him in quite a while. Wonder how he looks like with his botak head. HaHa~!

XianWang reported to Pulau Tekong on Thursday. He posted a photo of himself with his botak head on his blog. He looks weird. HaHa~! Anyway, he is thoughtful enough to leave a note on my little shoutbox before he left. Hope he gets on well there. =)

It's getting late. I better stop here. Going home now. =)

Joy

Joy is back home, well and safe. It turned out that she doesn't have dengue fever but a very serious viral infection. I am glad she will be coming back to the office on Wednesday, though she should be getting more rest. I miss her sooooo much!!! Hee~!

Blogging in my office again. It is my rest day but I am back for OT. Just hope to earn more money while I still can.

A lot of things are going through my mind right now, but I don't know how to put them down in words. I think I am aging.

I had been quite lucky for the past 18 years of my life. Had been able to pass the major exams, good enough for me to proceed to a higher level of education, and better still, to rather good schools. Though I worked very hard for that too, I still believe that good luck is important. Just hope that I am still as lucky as before. I don't care if you say that I am superstitious or whatever, I will try anything and everything to make sure that I am able to enter either NUS or NTU this year.

O'level results will be out tomorrow. I wish those who are receiving their results well, especially Joslyn and Jake. =)

Daddy is coming back from Malaysia tonight. Hopes he had enough fun. Can sense that he is very stresed up recently.

Read the email from Robby about pressure just now. The pictures were moving quite fast when I was looking at them. I need to check on my blood pressure. I reckon it should be shooting up faster than the rocket. It's no surprise since I had been getting a lot of irritating and stupid customers. Seriously, I do not wish to extend my contract with SingTel, though the pay is quite good. Maybe I'll see how it goes before I make my decision. Anyway, I still have a lot of time to consider since my contract will only end on 15th April 2005.

Didn't realise that I had been blogging for the past 2.5 hours. Alright, it's almost time for knock off and I shall end here.
