A Week Just Flew Past.....

It's been quite some time since I posted any entries.. ok.. It's a week... I have been so occupied with work... and "outings" that I dun have time to sit in front of my lappie to even throw in a random entry...

Met up with the whole gang on thursday... was it ? Ya.. I think it was thursday... Didn't wanna go initially... but told myself I will leave early cos I din drive.. but as usual.. left at 1plus.. oh ya.. mj won the pool competition.. so had a bottle of free vodka.. their fave.. not the vodka part.. the "free" part.. hahahhaha.. and yesterday.. went down to this place at jalan sultan... for this singing competition which mj, damon and wens are participating in. Yesh.. all got into the finals... I think it's the finals lah .. good grief.. I can't seem to be sure of anything.. But anyway.... Congrats guys!!! More free alcohol waiting for snatch-ups!


There are quite a number of things to update you peeps.. but somehow or another.. I m too tired to type it all in with all the details.. hahaha .. oh.. got my increment.. it was rather insignificant.. even my boss mentioned that he knows it is.. but I have 2 more coming up.. one in dec one in feb... dec's should be rank promotion with some extra moolahs.. the feb one is gonna be pretty substantial.. cos tat's when everything is set up.. hopefully all these will happen lah!! hahahahha .

I can sleep till wee hours into the afternoon.. but apparently .. for the second day running.. (today is sunday).. I woke up before noon striked. hmm.. something is happening...... weird......

Mindless Entertainment

It's a Saturday. To be frank, ever since I stopped my singing class... there is nothing to push me ahead and get on with the day. Since there is no reason for me to wake up and make it in time for class, I have every reason to stick my ass to my bed, my eyes to the tv.

I have been watching tv programmes the whole entire day. And........ I woke up at 10am this morning. No idea why... maybe cos there are too many things in my head.. Can't seem to sleep peacefully. But this mindless way of getting through my saturday has once again creeped into my life. And I welcome it.

I watched every programme that my fingers found it's way to direct the remote to switch. From taiwanese news (basically, it's all about getting Mr Tan to step down, and them doing a quiet protest), MTV concerts, make up and beauty variety shows, reality shows, Irwin's show ( It's an irony, this epi was documenting Irwin putting his dog, Sui Irwin to sleep), dramas of cos.. etc. And without fail... in about half an hour's time.. I will finally get my ass off my bed... and make a trip to complete the full range of tv programmes. Last one left: EPL game on a sat nite.


Try this once in a while if you can... you will be amazed at how therapeutic it can be.......

The building of the 50's

For the whole of this week, I am supposed to make a trip down to our Jurong branch to do some testing. So yesterday, I went with boss. It apparently didn't register in my head when boss kept mentioning that the place is horrid. I thought he was being the usual spoilt brat. But when we arrived, I FULLY UNDERSTOOD. It's really literally a GOD FORSAKEN place.

It's almost amazing that such a building exists in our country. It looks unlived in, dilapidated and I think it's gonna fall apart. Well, testing was real boring. When we went for our drinks and fag.... we were like tourists. Whipped out our phones. and started snapping away ..... Then I saw. Our branch is not the only branch there... there were another 2 banks, and a supermarket there.. I mean who in the world will bank at such a place. But apparently quite alot of customers and the deposit base of the branches there are pretty substantial.

Sigh.. today I went there alone. It was a dreary trip there. But boss had good news for me. He came a couple of hours later, went for his meeting, came out, and picked me up to leave. On the way out, he said he rescued me. Took me awhile.. but i got it. hahaha.. it means I don't have to go back there for the rest of the week! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally... some pics to show u peeps what it was like in timbuktu. Note: I am not being spoilt here mind you. I am just thinking.. upgrade the place! It's unsafe for the banks to be there too... this is practicality.





This is the lift.. blk 66 it says...


And these are the letter boxes... check them out....







Appreciate what we have................

bloody bugger..!!

I really hate this bugger!! There is this guy who used to go after me... Once in a while he will call me.. But I really dun like him at all!

Oh .. by the way.. his cousin is Ken Chu... so there was this once.. this guy asked me to attend his birthday function.. I went ok.. if your cousin goes.. then I will go... hahha .. win-win situation... :)

ok... so he called me a couple of days back. Asked me what is the minimum criteria to apply for a credit card. So i told him... then he asked for the required income documents.. n I said.. ya.. all correct. Then he said this.

"OH... COS MY NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT IS 54K.... "

I was like.. wat the fuck!! What has it gotta do with me... Then he carried on to explain now he is travelling around so he needs the card and all .. BLEAH.

Seriously... Alex... even if you earned 100k a yr... I won't even give you a second thought. You have to START growing up!!!!!!

$$$$.... Roll it in!!!!

Yippee~~!! Everyone's getting a pay rise... good. Now, it's finally my turn. But how much it's gonna be.. I have no idea. Hopefully.. it will make me at least contained for the next couple of months. Boss mentioned one revision this month... next one in March 07... I know the March adjustment will be pretty substantial.. but tat's quite a long way to go ... But I've got nothing much to crap about... cos I have not even worked in this company for 2 months.. and I am getting a pay rise... so maybe I should really just shut my gap ya....


Had a dream yesterday night .... I really don't know if I should be blogging about this... since Ah Sa mentioned that bosses now love to read their staff's blogs.. just to get to know them better. I am not gonna bitch about my boss.... in fact... its the opposite. Now... here's the story.

So I dreamt. It was about me and my "boyfriend"... who happens to be .............................. you got it. MY BOSS.

SO WEIRD! ok.. it wasn't really weird weird.. I was pretty happy in my dream.. I could even safely admit it was a sweet dream! So Rin asked me.. did I feel weird in my dream that my bf was my boss... cos on normal occasions... when something is so out of this world... even when you are dreaming.. you will still feel that it's appalling and untrue. BUT.... I didn't feel that way. DAMN.

So what is this????? I can't possibly like my boss ............. Ok.. I have to admit.. I appreciate his qualities.... these are the stuff I can't seem to find in anyone around me.. I don't mean you all my frenz.. I mean my "potentials". But tat's about it. It's a scary thought. Trust me. After this dream.. I had alot of trouble facing him at work today. I feel sick. His looks does not fall into the any of the categories of all the "husbands" I am referencing to. Not at all. But why why why!!!!

Right.. so you must be wondering.. BOSS LEH.. old and fulgy....... NO. He is 29..... at the peak of his career only at 29...... earning a hell lot of moolahs.... 3 properties, 4 cars..... born with a platinum spoon in his mouth..... $$$$$$...... and most importantly.... he's got the wit to top it all up. Oh ya.... I am a sucker for guys who can sing.. He can sing. ARGHHHHH.......


Ok lah .. I think this whole thing will phase over before I realise. It's just that bloody dream which got me into all this whirlwind confusion. It's all your fault Jas!! We gossip too much about him.... so much so that when I sleep... I still gotta dream about WORK.. now WORK=BOSS.... DAMN.





Oh... about bosses reading employees' blogs.. I guess I've got no worries for that. He is too swamped with work... to do such boliao things...... PHEW....

Back and A New Year ahead

I am back! 3 weeks flew by in a flash. I thought the entire trip was a tad too long, but this thought didn’t last too long into my working d...
