We've grown up!

Phew...managed to accomplish my assigned tasks in time (still keeping my fingers crossed on 1 last thing thou, gotta wait til tomorrow before I know the outcome, so praying hard now ;-) ). Basically I've rotted in the office for the entire day, felt more bored than happy. Rotting is worse than having a crazily busy schedule. Believe me!!!
But today is still a happy day. I'm proud of myself that I managed to get hold of the precious moments cards for my coll's ROM. Well, not easy to get them, ok? Coz due to overwhelming response, the shops no longer carry the cards, & the person even told me that I gotta wait til X'mas. Luckily I emailed the smrt person in time & she has the last set left. So she sold it to me. Wahaha...So happy!! Hope my coll will be happy to receive the gift too. ;-)
Just a while ago, I was chatting with a pal about work life. I guess no one really likes to work (or probably I'm the only nutcase who would rather work than rot??!!) In fact, I think the problem doesn't really lie with whether you are working or not. More correctly, I think the nature of your job, your colls & of course, your boss, matter alot. But I've told her that life consists of vicious cycles. At the least, you see that one gotta work hard (to earn more $$) so that he can afford to play hard (which costs $$). Just like the demand & supply curves (recall: My can't-make-it econs in JC...ahaha) So I should be thankful to have a bunch of fun,crazy colls to laugh & share woes with. ;-p
Hmm...got an urge to become a farmer when I retire... Think it's so nice to plant your own crops, harvest them & enjoy the fruit of your hard work. Thou it's yet another vicious cycle, but well, isn't life full of this sort of cycles?? Birth always follow by death, and the cycle just continues...
The world is not going to pause/stop for anyone. It's has been tasked to move on for the lives of so many people on Earth. So we shouldn't stop and keep moaning over setbacks/unhappiness. ;-)

An Ordinary Yet not too Ordinary Sunday...

An ordinary yet not too ordinary Sunday....
Today is yet another boring day... Tuition has been cancelled, no dates, nothing... Just rotted around, lazing at home.
Went downstairs to get some groceries in the afternoon and I met this little boy in a provision shop. Guess what he said?? "Auntie, excuse me..."
I'm like, huh??? What??!!! Auntie??
So I've been promoted from a jie jie to an auntie already! Ok, fine... as I gave way to this little boy, I happened to knock into him. BUT... it was UNintentional. For sure, I didn't mean to hit him, it was a pure accident (believe me). Thank goodness that he didn't cry, if not his parents will think that I'm bullying their son just because he called me an auntie. Time is running out! I'm becoming an auntie... Sob sob...But, what's the definition of auntie?? Is there an age range for one to be addressed as an auntie?? I continue to ponder....
Well, such a minor "setback" did not haunt me for the rest of my day. Glad to go for a jog in the evening, feeling real great sweating out. ;-)
However, my quite nice Sunday was disturbed by some "ge tai" near my place. Oh my god! I thought that the ghost month is over, or has the clock turned back??Having a ge tai right below my block is damn annoying. I hate it!! I regretted that I didn't cast my vote to support my dad & sis in getting a KTV set for my home. If not I'll be blasting back at the Hokkien ge tai right now!!

Happy Friday...

Ooops...have been too busy, or rather too lazy to update my blog. Feeling tired now (as usual), so will keep this entry short.

So happy that it's Friday again! A good week, since boss is not in town & my coll and I left at 5pm (instead of 5.30pm) today. Haha~~ Infact, our boss has "approved" this, since he said that we've been working hard. He's quite a nice boss afterall, except for his bad habits, but that's his health,not mine. Wahaha~~

Went for a dip in the pool after work, good workout, but still polishing up my freestyle strokes. Sigh...tough manz... but tmr gonna swim with Jac in the morning again. So happy!! ;-)
