Went for SMU talks with Jean today. FASS, Accountancy and Business. I can proudly say that I paid more attention during those talks than most of the lectures I attend, or rather, USED TO attend (omg I feel so old) in VJ. The conference hall was practically overflowing with people during the business talk, such that latecomers had to sit at the aisles. Madness, I never knew business was that popular a degree.
Anyway, Tom's Palette another day okay Jean! *HINTS MADLY*
Ugh I really don't know what course I want to take. I'm not an ambitious person; my aim in life is definitely NOT to make money (hint hint my dad), even though lots of money would be good, obviously. All I'm asking for is a stable job that I have a passion for and a happy family. That's not very much to ask for, is it?
But oh well. I know I've got to make up my mind soon. And scholarships! SCHOLARBLOODYSHIPS! I have absolutely Z.E.R.O. knowledge/experience and have never bothered finding out about them because I have never dreamed of applying for one, much less obtaining one. But with all the encouragements from my friends and nagging from my dad, I'm considering trying. Whether I will get it or not, however, is another matter entirely. Hahahaha.
Omg. I can't stand guys who push their absurdly long fringe across their forehead in an attempt to brush it out of their eyes. If it's that long, please go and cut it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eww it's such a terribly girly gesture that it makes me cringe. Please guys, that is not cool. Thank you very much.
Is that what you see whenever you look into the mirror??????????
Oh my god. This makes me sick: http://community.livejournal.com/proanorexia
To all my girls, please do not become an anorexic! It's extremely bad for health and it obviously is NOT BEAUTIFUL. I mean, how can anybody think a bag of bones is beautiful?!?????! Abso-freakin'-lutely ridiculous! So eat up ladies, and let's all become voluptuous women! HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Busy Busy
The weekend really flies by when you're working. One moment you're going, 'TGIF!!!!!!!!!', and the next you're getting the monday blues. I have soooo much that I must know and I haven't even touched my super thick file. WHY OH WHY must I be put in the most hectic hotline department?!!!? ):
Plus I definitely need to brush up on my chinese. It irks me like crazy when the person on the line speaks impeccable chinese while my reply consists of scattered english terms because I have no idea how to translate them.
The above 2 paragraphs in italics were typed 1 month plus ago. But I have been really busy! Work has been quite dreadful. Thank goodness I have fantastically nice colleagues who make my day at the office more enjoyable. It's true you know, that a nice caller can make you happy temporarily but all it takes is a single nasty call to ruin your otherwise cheerful day. So people, next time you dial a hotline number, please remember to be nice to the customer service operator!
Seriously, some callers are more unreasonable than my dad, and that's really saying something. They expect you to know everything under the sun, when they can't even express their questions coherently. And when you take some time to decipher what they say, they get impatient and scold you for inefficiency. I mean, helloooooooooooooo, is it my fault that I don't understand what you say because you have a speech impediment or because your accent is as thick as your head?!?!!!!!! But yes, yes it is! Simply because................
THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT. PFFT.
And ugh. I have no social life. Ask me out please, somebody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A Level results yesterday. I'm thankful for everything, grateful to everyone who has supported me all this while. All I can say is that I've been extremely extremely lucky; it really has been a rocky 2 years in JC for me. The highest grade that I've ever attained is a C, and that was only on 2 separate occasions. So thank you to those who believed in me, and to those who didn't, I understand, because to be honest I've been a pretty nightmarish student.
PS: When I was throwing the rubbish into the garbage bin just now, I heard suspicious moaning noises coming from my neighbour's car. YES, MOANING. Eek! I think I need to cleanse my ears.

FINALLY
EMPLOYED!!!
As I am typing this, I am smiling like a complete idiot in front of my laptop. But who cares, I HAVE A JOB NOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry I know I sound a little crazy. But I'm feeling super :D :D :D now.
I really want to thank everybody who made my 19th a very very memorable one, from the nasty (HAHA) shock I had early in the morning to the dinners and scary surprises. Lol! You people make me feel special. Thank you!!
Oh yes, before I forget, happy Chinese New Year everybody! Hope you get lots and lots of ang paos and become filthy rich so you can share some of your earnings with me. :D I actually pretty much dislike CNY, other than the goodies. CNY essentially means family social gatherings I am obliged to attend, because I only see my cousins once a year and it's just plain awkward! I realise my aunts and uncles seem to think I keep growing taller every year despite the fact that I have not gained a single inch over the past 2 years. :/
Forget the taxi driver, I'm going for the green eyes. HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Blog Revival Attempt #827915
Okay I admit, my blog's pathetic. It's like an ugly old rag doll left on the shelf of a toystore and occasionally I drop by to dust it up a little so it won't get too shabby. Probably no one's reading this anymore because they're sick of visiting the same post. Same date, same words. Just thinking of it makes me depressed and I have no idea why.
Sooooooo, I am going to update at least once a week. And you, dear reader, yes you, that lone nerdy thing sitting in front of the screen taking in these words greedily because you probably have no friends and thus resort to stalking this sad excuse of a blog, are allowed to scold/slap/pinch me if I do not fufil this promise. But then again chances of that happening are practically NIL, since nobody is going to read this anyway.
However, I am still going to blog, because I'm in too good a mood right now to feel sorry for the lack of readership. I've been bringing my camera out with me so it's picture spamming time!!!!!!!

Dinner at PP Swenson's with Jean, Lin Lao and Liu Ying. Jean looks nice and business-like in her working clothes while I look like I just climbed out of bed. Thank you Jean and Liu Ying for helping me through my job searching troubles! Even though technically I'm still jobless. Lol! Both of you have been a great help, really. Don't know what I'd do without the 2 of you!
At Wheelock Big O. HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY WUSUAN MY SMOLING PARTNER WHO'S OFFICIALLY ATTACHED! Omg still can't believe it. Hahahahaha. Aiyooo why you close your eyes?!
Ikea! MC and I are sitting on banana chairs while Achee's sitting on some bear beanie. Cannot really tell from this angle. Anyhow, I've decided to have my wedding photo taken in Ikea! There're so many fun picture-taking spots there. So girls, for a fun, crazy, outrageous cam-whoring session, you know where to go!Last day with Huang Yu aka Fatshit. That idiot's flight was at 7am in the morning so we spent the day before the flight with her. This is the only picture I have with all 4 of us:
I bet you will say you look sexy in this one. HAHAHAHAHA.
I like this picture because we both look nice in it and you're actually showing your teeth when you smile! You always do that mother goose smile in pictures, THINK I DON'T KNOW IS IT, TRYING TO LOOK DEMURE SO THE GUYS WILL COME FLOCKING TO YOU?!?!! So this picture is nice, for a change.I WILL MISS YOUUU! ALTHOUGH WE QUARREL LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS (as Ling says, more than the number of times the average couple quarrel in a lifetime HAHAHA) AND END UP NOT TALKING TO EACH OTHER FOR DAYS/WEEKS/MONTHS.
But for now, I don't miss you la. I mean, hello-oo, it's only been a day, and if I miss you already then something is seriously wrong with me. Hahahaha. I love you Fatshit!!!!!!!!!

Santa baby
Slip a sable under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby
So hurry down the chimney tonight
Christmas is in 10 days! And while I don't celebrate christmas, it's the time of the year when I go christmascrazy and start singing christmas carols so excuse me if I suddenly burst into song. But hey, it's the christmas spirit man!
Talked to my sister just now:
Her: Mummy and I have been betting on whether you’re going to work or not.
Me: Oh really! So who bet what??
Her: (Looking at me like I’m an idiot) Of course both of us bet that you won’t work la! Mummy says you so lazy, sure won’t work one. And she says even if you do you’ll get fired cos you sure late for work everyday.
I'm appalled by the amount of confidence they have in me, honestly.
To my dearest Braver and Bravest, both of you have got to be the bravest girls in the universe! But I don't care, I will overtake you soon in the Brave League! All it takes is a single call... (:
Off for a jog with Kim, then dinner with my Spastics. After that Liu Ying's gonna bring me to register for Recruit Express, and in return I have to accompany her to put up tutoring advertisements at nearby bus stops. Yup, I badly need a job!! Dad's nagging like crazy which is starting to get on my nerves.
Santa Claus is coming to town.........
