Ugly petty?
I may be having a hangover right now but I am not taking back my words. I hate petty, calculative people... especially at work! If you're a friend outside of work, I can easily say adios. But if you're a part of my working team, its fucking hard to avoid your immature pettiness! Fuck you're a man for goodness sake! If you can't find something that you're looking for (a piece of paper from many months ago), dun accuse me that I do not want to give it to you just cos I said I do not know where it is! I fucking honestly do not know where your paper is! What makes you think if I have food on my table, you automatically deserve to share with me but if its on yours, I am not entitled to have a piece without fulfiling some cheapass condition of yours? Fuck you! Did you know this guy rather I test the strength of my bladder cos he thinks its ok to not allow me to pee in his toilet (home)? I had to travel, in a bus, for a good 40minutes to reach home to pee, godamnit! Actually I don't mind you doing all this to me, but fucking don't embarass me infront of those I care about and don't treat them like you were to treat me! Not everyone has high level of tolerance as I do, DICKWART! If you're reading this... OOPS! What are you gonna do about it?

Magic Square Box Anxiety
Bloody thanks to the writers' strike that many of my favorite shows came to a halt. And here I am just trying to keep track of things like a damsel going cold turkey. Dirty Sexy Money You're 3 episode short of ending season 1. I'm veeeeeryyyyy sure you're not cutting it short! The show rocks! I cannot have enough of the Darlings. Cashmere Mafia Just 7 episodes?? Are you freakin' kidding me?? Lipstick Jungle Another good drama that'll end with only 7 episodes. I admit the concept is a lot similar to Cashmere Mafia, but the world could use more of these kind of shows! Ugly Betty The magical date will be on April 24th. Entourage This show has taken too long of a break it scares me on whether it'll come back or not at all. They went through a rough first season, but as it goes on it has gotten a lot stronger! After 4 seasons, I was gasping for more but that last said episode aired in Feb 2007! It's been more than a year! Wassup with that? I miss my Turtle :( Gossip Girl I'm pretty sure the show won't 'xoxo' on me yet cos' it has gotten such tremendous feedback. I'd say the show is really fresh and it may seem a little OC but with a dash of glam and me. Blogging, gossips, socialites, relationships, scandals... ain't it entertaining or what? F-I-E-R-C-E! Heroes This show took it bad pre-strike when they start rushing through the episode like a dick they all were! So I hope they will take time to rethink the plot a little and blow me away with Volume three which i think will air in September *cross fingers*.

Dear eyelids...
Don't fudge on me now. I have work to do and you're not helping me one bit. I let you shutdown late Sunday night but you refused! I can't take it anymore. I hate you and I never want to see you again! Fudge off, you damn eyelids!

Annual Report 2007
Well, if you had forgotten, I had scrapped the idea of having resolutions since last year. Mainly due to the fact that I never fulfiled them and I tend to not care about them at all. But I did mention I wanted to pick up a new skill. Well...
I guess I did tried to do better in life and work. I remember having all this self-realisation, self-discover shitzz for a couple of months. I blame it on my quarter life crisis. For once I notice how much I've grown and I've also realised how precious time is. Charly, the french fry, came down to Singapore again for his internship. I wished I had spent more time with him but I didn't. He was here for like 6mths and I met him like 2-3 times? pathetic eh? But that's more frequent than I meet my own folks, so... Lindsay came and I met up with her for that one day... just one day! I will do better for your 2008 trip, I promise! I met so many new people... like SO MANY! I made myself sit down and listen to them to really get to know them better before passing off judgement. Yeah, a whole different Fida coming your way. I'm still the same person really, just takes a much longer time to unleash the negativity now. Haha! Am I happier now? I guess you can say so. But deep inside there's a tinge of sadness in me for the fact that I wish I could meet up with my present, long-time-no-see friends again to catch up on old times. Just having you in my phonebook is not enough... unless I've chosen to avoid you already? Muahaha! Let's talk about vacations. I went to Phuket, Bangkok, Bintan and JB. That's like using my passport for 4 times! Like woah~ This has to be some kind of a record! Usually I travel like twice max. Pricely possession of this year includes:
I almost lost my PC but a good friend told me he'll fix it at no cost... just a Burger King meal! That was a close call but I'm glad he manage to salvage everything back. I have no clue what I'll do if I loose all the data inside! I should now consider investing in a Hard Disk Drive to backup all my data! I did blogathon again this year and once again, I fell asleep for a bit. It was a lot more organised this year as I've had previous experiences. Haha. I didn't raise that much money but I'm glad I did my part to help the less fortunate. Should I look forward to Blogathon 2008? Meh... we'll see about that. It kinda gets a tad too old... we need fresh ideas people! As I mentioned I won't be setting resolutions but on the other hand, I started new projects/hobbies.
So what's gonna happen in 2008? Settle down? Hmmm.... Labels: blog, food, friends, happiness, money, rant, relationship, shopping, singapore, travel, whatever, work

You? Me? Friend?
You know sometimes how we yearn to have gazillion of friends? Not you? Hoe-well... Let's just say when you're 14 or 17, you've got plenty but now you've got just a handful or none at all. Would you be ok with it? Or would you feel rejected somehow? How many of us actually keep in touch with all these people in your phonebook you call friends? Exactly... Me, on the other hand, do not wish to celebrate my 50th birthday in a chalet full of aging friends, or put a massive pressure on my offsprings to book a bigger venue to have my funeral as our house is gonna be like too small to hold all of them. With my current situation now, I feel priviledged to be able to sit down and rethink about all the people I've met, hung out with, schmooze... haha. How many actually deserve my friendship? Ok, a lil' disclaimer here: I may or may not be talking about you but please stop thinking its you cos' it may or may not be you. So right now, I'm putting additional effort to weed out the bad and hopefully retain the good. I've mostly been weeding... so if you feel like you've been weeded by me, please proceed to the door with the 'EXIT' sign and don't come back. Another thing I'm puzzled is that these people kept telling me I've not been 'around' cos' I've got a boyfriend. Bitch puh-leeze! I've been around and about... just without you! Hahaha! Don't judge me... I'm happy. Sidenote: Congrats Germaine & Alan, I love your wedding although I came drenched and I'm sure it's not part of the dresscode but I dunch care cos' I love you and I'm very happy your wedding's a success so it's time for your horny-moon and please come back with your egg/s fertilized... LOL! Note to self: Don't ever think of planning a wedding on a beautiful beach during monsoon season.

Coming of age...
My home PC's feeling the drag of becoming a year older just like myself. It turns 5 recently and it turns its back against me for some reason. I was left PC-less for like 3 days and I almost went mad! I took it all on my Nintendo DS Lite with all my might. Over 3 days I had to recharge the bugger like 4 times *LOL*. Edited: (like days later) Many many thank you-s to a certain someone who helped me fix this bloody piece of metal box at no cost. Well, I did treat him dinner though, Burger King, all time favorite junkfood. I'd have no idea why got into me when I mass texted everyone I know who knows anyone who's able to fix stuff at low cost but at extreme speed. I lub you deep deep - Tein Hee Labels: rant

Thank you...
I am not ignoring my blog... I'm ignoring my PC altogether. My heart stopped beating whenever my PC just shuts down on its own. I know its been a long 5 years since I made it slave for me, but it shouldn't be that bad of a problem. I believe a wee bit of maintenance is all it takes to restore to its glorious state. You think? Anyways, my birthday just past; I'd like to thank each and everyone of you who has poured your well-wishes, gifts (on facebook or real ones) and spent time to celebrate the day I love and loathe the most! Fida: Come 'ere you! (the rest of the scenes have been removed completely as it did not clear the censorship board) I will update with more pictures.... please bear with me as I whipped my PC's ass!

What would you do....?
I was trying not to be late for work the other day so I took a cab. Lucky for me to part with my S$8 since it started pouring halfway through the journey. About 5 minutes away from my office building the driver let out a silent killer gas. He didn't say a word, I didn't say a word... the whole cab started to smell! I should have rolled down the window. He should have apologise. He should have rolled down his side of the window. Just 400 metres away and I would be free but I couldn't take it anymore and made him stop. If you were in my shoe (or in that cab) what would you have done without sounding rude? Labels: rant

Gimme gimme no more
What is wrong with her VMA performance here. Lets evaluate shall we... 1. not singing, she did not lipsync well either! 2. barely dancing 3. bad hair extensions 4. one of her fake nail dropped out 5. not very nice for a mother of 2 to be wearing something like that 6. she look like a dead fish on stage 7. she did not impress the audience at all 8. unflattering exposure of post maternity figure (I wouldn't say she's fat but you know...) This is not the Britney we all know. Let me let you refer to her past performance here and tell Brit-Brit... what happened to you? I can imagine the performance to be a big bomb if I were to remove YOU from the stage and let your awesome dancers do all the magic. I know a lot had happened in your absence from the industry... 1. got married 2. got kids 3. got divorce 4. got Paris Hilton to be your BFF 5. got bad pictures across all media 6. lost all the important people necessary for her career 7. rehab, rehab, rehab 8. oh the drinking... bad mummy! 9. battling child custody with K-Fed 10. almost bankrupt I suppose... My advice... DO IT RIGHT OR DON'T DO IT AT ALL. Anyone, and I mean anyone, could have matched your quality standard that night and many would do it for free. You're losing your fans slowly by the minute, honey!

Drill me baby!
I took morning off with a colleague to make full use of our dental benefit worth S$120. We made appointment on the same day but I got the 9am slot while she's like half and hr after me. Pretty odd since I'm horrible at waking up THAT early but I manage to reach the clinic around 8.42am (yup, I memorised the time from my receipt). Despite my applaudable effort to be there on bloody time, I was made to wait for more than 45mins. Yes, I bumped into my colleague who came about 10mins earlier before her appointment. I was furious but then again, who's ever excited to sit in the dentist chair anyway? The 'drilling' session was alright I guess. I got nagged for not making it a point to visit the dentist annually. My last visit was in Aug 05 because of an unfortunate swimming session that resulted in a semi-shattered tooth. Don't wanna talk about it. I can still feel the pain, in my pocket. Anyway, the dentist told me I got a minor gingivitis, or something like that. But you have to agree, it has a pretty cute name. I could name my new mobile phone that! Its just plaque (a.k.a. tartar) built up near to the gums resulting from little or no brushing. Usually will affect the hard to reach places at the back. So the dentist went on to teach me the proper way to clean the unreachable areas. Dentist: Point your brush 45 degrees so that it's able to touch all the way to the back. Don't brush, but just jiggle, jiggle, jiggle... I think a better solution will be to get those really long and thin toothbrushes. Someone need to invent some if there isn't any in the market! No one ever thought me to jiggle my brush against my tooth! It used to be up-down motion and recently on the Ellen Show, they thought us to brush in circular motion and now I learnt how to jiggle with my toothbrush! Lesson learnt... cost me S$103.80! Yup, just for consultation and scaling. Who says I avoid making annual appointments cos' I'm afraid of the dentist?

Post Mortem
Just 48hrs ago I was cracking my brain to dish another 6-7 more entries before I could finally go to sleep. Now... 2 days later, its like a bad withdrawal symptom. I think I want more of such events. Even if its not for charity but for pure fun and joy, I don't really mind. I can say blogging is my passion, even if I have nothing to blog about! The only thing that can come between me and my blog is lethargy. Surprise, surprise I did not hibernate right after. I watched TV, eat like a normal person and slept at normal hours. I woke up exactly 8hrs later like normal adult would and led a normal life like nothing had happened. I wasn't even tired. I wish work could be like that... maybe there will be jobs one day paying what I'm earning right now in near future. Hmm... Rant: I was at M1 shop yesterday and was comparing mobile phone prices between M1 and Starhub via their wireless notebook terminal nearby. I was barely there for a minute and this fella stood next to me started opening his mouth... Him: Excuse me, I WANT to use this terminal! Me: I just got here. Can't you WAIT? I thought he'll run away and cry but his stubborn ass stood right next to me, eye-ing whatever I'm doing, not budging away. He thought that'll make me give up but knowing myself, I made him wait even longer! Muahaha! Will write another entry in half hr...... NOT! Labels: blogathon07, rant

Islam promotes terrorism?
What's with all the labelling these days? Check out stuff I quoted from myLot postings, which I shall not display the links as not to promote the argument. Your people always tell us Islam is peace but actions speak louder than words. All we see from Islams actions is hate and murder. No one ever even once said they were sorry about what those 19 people did in the name of Islam. All we hear is "they were not true Muslims". Then we hear "Bush", "oil", "Christians", "Hitler" the "Crusades". why won't the 'good' muslims stand up and denounce the bad ones? why won't the good ones say 'ok, that enough!' and tell the extremist to leave? why won't the good ones explain why they come to this country and allow the bad ones to kill, mock, spit on or burn our flag, talk negatively of our country ... that they chose to live in???? a muslim is more likely to listen to their own, rather than someone that they hate! ya think?! but we will never know, since most muslims are too cowardly to stand up for what is right. as or the quran not saying anything about killing people.. I beg to differ, have you NOT read your own holy book? there are MANY passages that leads one to believe that allah is telling them to go to war with anyone who doesn't believe EXACTLY as they believe! Why bother? *shrugs* Labels: rant

A roof to call my own
Had a discussion with a colleague from Selangor, Malaysia about living cost difference in Singapore and Malaysia. One thing we could agree on its the cost of houses. If you've been following the real estate news you'll realise houses nowadays are gonna cost us even more than they do in the 90s and to don't expect to earn big like the yesteryears when selling your present home (unless of course you're residing on prime location). So what happen now? Do you still wanna cramp 4 families into one home? No! The governmen wants you to reproduce but makes it hell for you to afford a house for you to start a new family in. I may be a lil dense in this topic but I heard many of my friends who bought a house is now legally indebted to the banks till the day they retire. Woah~ that's where all my parents money went to! Yup, bad news kid. One day you gotta bid goodbye to all the fun in life you've had before and think of ways to earn money via myspace to help your folks to pay for your education! Should we start looking for aretirement home soon? LOL!

Waiting to fly
Blogging from the free internet access terminal at the Budget Terminal. I have approximately 50mins before I board the plane and 12mins to use this terminal. I'm fucking sleepy right now... and hungry. There ain't much eateries that I'll even consider patronising. Should I starve till I reach Phuket? Errr... I'm thirsty too. No liquids allowed in your hand carry luggage so I guess I'll have to purchase the overpriced Coke or something before I dehydrate like crazy. Ok... enough ranting... Fida... out!

Bitch Mode [ON]
I'm here for more than a year and you're here for about that period of time. How dare you come forth and still call me "Excuse me"!! I'm not a waitress... I don't owe you any service. I have a name, damn it! Its not the first time we're communicating. We had conversations at the bus stop and in the bus. This company ain't that big. You see me every working day looking for newspaper or when you got locked out of your office during lunch hour. What a bitch!

Bad press
I got a bad review from ReviewMyBlog and I've got a few things to point out.
Now... who else wants a piece of me?

Who's ya daddy?
Referring to this article pertaining to our minister's annual income, it saddens me that when I look around I see my fellow citizen (otherwise known as the heartlanders) mostly breaking even with the monthly salary. A Minister in Singapore gets an annual salary of $1.2 million. Our Prime Minister gets an annual salary of $1.9 million and our Minister Mentor gets $2.7 million a year as reported in our local press. Compared to our office bearers, the President of the United States of America gets only about an annual salary of nearly SGD $1 million. The Prime Minister of Canada gets paid annually about SGD $400,000. The Australian Prime Minister receives only an annual salary of about SGD $300,000. And the United Kingdom Prime Minister gets about SGD half a million dollars and Hong Kong Head of Government receives around SGD $600,000 annually.Like HELLO! What are we trying to prove here? I'm sure the other ministers (or presidents) worked a hell lot harder than ours. Where's the equality here? In another article, where they defends the salary formula, they compared incomes of professions like lawyers, doctors, accountants etc. Its not the issue at all here. I'm sure those people deserve every justified dollars and cents they earned. I'm not politically well-versed but this is too absurb for street-minded citizen like myself. Is that where tax payers money goes to every year? How aout helping the citizen to be debt free maybe by lowering prices of home purchases, public transportation and maybe a proper salary adjustment/increment especially when it comes to annual bonuses? Do they really need that much money? I'm sure a CEO of the biggest bank in the world knows how to tie the purse strings when it comes to personal/business expenditure. They are placed in whatever positions they are right now to help the country and its citizen. So what if they claim the government is trying to be more transparent? Your people are in debt 360 degrees (and I'm not referring to credit card bills etc). What are you doing to help them? Its true what people say, you look at the poor and go... Mouth: Oh poor thing... Mind: What can I do to help? Heart: Thank God that's not me! After being in civil service for 6years, I came to terms to accept the fact that the job is an iron ricebowl EVEN FOR UNDERPERFORMERS depsite for what they claimed. Let me quote from here, about being in govt sector. Q. The civil service is said to be an iron rice bowl where poor performers are tolerated. How true is this?I am using my own encounters and myself as a good example:
SIGH! Like me if you're pissed sign the petition here to stop them greeds! Oh FYI, the old hill in front of my block was under renovation for the past 6 months or so and finally its completed. All they did was to replant the grass and grow new trees. Thank you tax payers for your contribution to my brand new hill!

Friends?
My phone has been very very quiet for the past year. Why? It didn't used to be like this. Is it something that I've done? Did I put so much attention on my love life and work that I forsaken everything else that matters? Yup, Sims 2 is my new best friend. It kept me company throught good and bad hours after hours! I accidentally punched the wall on my way out of the ladies room. Now I can see my non-existence knuckle. Still sore... yeooucchh!

Spinners!
So I got a call from one of those telemarketing peeps and I was about to slam the receiver when I realise this is nothing like those annoying "sit in a presentation before collecting free gifts" sort so I'd give it a shot. Its a free makeover trial :P (I'm not gonna name the studio as I refuse to give them free publicity) I was punctual for my appointment and the receptionist made me wait another 20mins or so. I notice a bunch of peeps that came in after me were in the same time slot as I am. I thought they had enough staff to entertain that many but we're all made to wait. When it was my turn, the receptionist escorted me to clims the stairs, 3 floors up, and I find myself in a pretty decent looking studio. I was assigned to a make up artist and she did a good job basically, she will never pull something that I may not like without asking first. I can even have second thoughts and be a bitch about stuff, she;ll still gladly fix me up. Then it comes to the hair and I have no clue what I wanna do. She offered to neaten my rebonded hair and I thought it'll be fun to go curly. I wished her luck to work on my thick hair and she laughed. Once its done, I wasn't that excited about the hair. Maybe I'm not used to it, and I had problem styling it. She smiled and said "Trust me." In 2 mins, my hair is done and I felt like hugging her. She's the kind of person I wanna have around when I got a bad hair day! Make up done, hair done, photographer waiting for me in the back room. Scrawny middle age men barely spoke 2 words to me, took control of the whole shoot by I mean, they have to be more realistic, they randomly call people of all walks of life, not accepting walk-in requests, and their cheapest package is like S$2899! Like WTF! Pride... too much pride! And the photos... I get to choose 2 and they burn it in a CD (case not included, only for those who sign up) and its a raw files. I pissed them off a lil' more lying that I'm a designer and photoshop is my forte. I still remember the look on their face. ![]() ![]() Yes, its me, the designer, putting my editing skills to work, in 3 mins I came up with these. Watcha think? Labels: rant, vainpot, whatever

Do your life suck?
I had a very long conversation last night with someone who's life apparently suck so bad they're on suicidal mode. I never believed that killing yourself is the way to go although many will agree that its easier said than done. How bad could life be? There are soooo many poor souls in 3rd world country inspite of their sucky life, fight on and pray for a better future. What do people in our society do in times of 'suckiness'? We complain, we lament, we whine, we rant and then what? Commit suicide? Just because you have no idea how to overcome life's hardship doesn't mean other people can't help you and doesn't mean there's no solution to it at all. It also doesn't mean suicide is the only answer to all your problems. Everybody has problems. We're all born fighters but we're not actually aware of it. If we weren't even the slightest bit struggling, I don't think we will all be where we are now. That's life. As shitty as it may seem, there's a reason for it. No one in this world have no problems and struggles in life at all. If you're the fortunate one, come forth. Tell me how fantastic your life is... I'll beg to differ... I dare ya! Labels: rant

Bye bye 2006
For 2006 I said I wanna... 1. to lose weight 2. to save money 3. to travel at least once a year by plane 4. to be with my baby for life Let's just scrap the idea of forming my 2007 resolution altogether, how does that sound? Obviously you and I both know I can't resolve my resolutions EVER! SO why bother right? Here is what I resolve for the coming year... for the heck of it! & I will stop kissing strangers less often source: http://www.ryumaou.com/cgi-bin/resolution.cgi Actually, I really wanna pick up a new skill for 2007. I would really like to learn how to play guitar. Maybe learn a little salsa? Baking? Hmm... There you go! My 2007 resolution is to pick up a new skill! How about yours?

Depressed be thy name
I dunno whether to blame the monsoon or because its approaching the end of the year, but I'm feeling the lowest point of my life right now. Well let's see... 1. I hate it that it never rains when I'm at home but it poured like f*ck when I'm in the office 2. My colleague made me realise that I hadn't taken a day off work since I am entitled to... 12 days! Hence I need to clear at least 5 before year end. 3. I hadn't also taken any vacation. Can I blame it on the backpacking trip I had a year ago? But that was a year ago!! 4. I hadn't met my friends for the LONGEST time. Its like I am so wrapped up around my work, I hadn't been the one to plan anything at all. Girls! Do something!! 5. Lindsay is coming back and I know that'll be the only time we'll all meet up and chill out with each other. After she leaves, it goes back to normal... sad rite? 6. My entries are mostly about my work and colleagues. It made me sound like I had nothing before I work there and I know that's not true but others may beg to differ. 7. My achievements for 2006 is so disappointing, I've never felt so ashamed to put it out there. 8. Vivocity is a very depressing place and its so close 9. There's some guy in my office who's an undeserving f*cker was given a second chance in another department after he was given the boot. If I were him I'll feel depressed right now, like going back to the crime scene! 10. Despite of all these, my bf and I doing well at the moment and that's kinda depressing cos' I know something is not right... Watch this...

Shame shame!
I got a call about 10am from this lady by the name of Fiona. She's from People Search and I thought she was enquiring about sales or advertising hence she was directed to my line. Here's how the 1 minute convo went: Fiona: Hi may I speak to someone from advertising please? Me: Yes, you may speak to me, this is Fida speaking. Fiona: Oh hi Fida, have you always been in advertising? Me: Yeah, why? Fiona: We're actually looking for someone for the post of Advertising Account Manager and will you be interested? Me: You called my company to look for someone to hire? Fiona: No its not like that. Will you be interested? Me: NO! Fiona: Do you know of anyone who will be interested? Me: Hell no! *slams phone*

Top 10 Baby!!
No, I'm not on billboard charts, neither am I in the most wanted list. I clocked Top 10 most no. of hours in my company in August. Yup, me too, I never would think there's such a list. I'm on no. 5 with 172.15hrs. The top spot clocked 204.65hrs. Nope... I ain't competing for the top spot. I have a life. I don't think I'll get any medal for this or any other reward for that matter. If I do, I'll BLOL (blogging and laughing out loud) like crazy! On a more serious note, I went to the polyclinic this morning hoping to find the answer to why my period had been really weird this month and I paid S$8 to hear the doctor say "I don't know" when I asked her what's wrong with me. Actually I'm not really pissed at her. One major reason why I do not like to go to polyclinic is because of the patients there. While waiting, I observe around me and I notice many of them barging in the consultation room when its not their turn and worse, when there's another patient in the room. My eye muscles on the verge of having spasm when luckily the led screen ding-donged my queue number. Just before I manage to reach for the door knob, an old man tried to enter the room. I gave him the iciest glare I've ever given anyone before. Fearing for his life, he backed off. Lesson learnt... do not go to polyclinics unless your GP decides to... erm... I CAN'T THINK OF AN EXCUSE! Just don't do it! Labels: funny, rant, sick, work

*faint*
For the past few weeks I have been working a lot. I realised I work 15hrs a day. I work when I'm in the office and I work when I'm at home. I'm physically and mentally tired but I cannot take official leave off work. I have to wait till like end of september or something before I can do that. I'm tired... Last night I woke up in the wee hours coughing like a mad woman. I have no idea why but I had to sit up in order to breathe... and cough at the same time. Am I having asthma attack after 10yrs of not having one? Hmm... I have 2 pairs of movie tickets... DOA: Dead or Alive and See No Evil. God knows when I'll be able to watch them! DOA will not be out till October and from the look of it, SNE will not be out so soon either. So the boyfriend will not be free to watch it with me, therefore, the other half of the ticket are still up for grabs. Of course, you hafta watch it with me, cos the tickets are mine... muahaha!! I'm pissed the company kept rescheduling the Company Initiation Program (that's orientation in lay men's term) and I keep having to move the dates around. Should I get a PDA? Or should I stick with the good ol' organisers? Going to Settler's Cafe again this Thursday. This time the good bunch will be going and I expect the fun meter to be up to the maximum level. I want to plaaaaaaayyyy!!! Labels: movies, rant, sick, work

New York New York
Ok I am asked to post these photos up so that the whole of Singapore can boycott against it. The restaurant called New York New York and the pic owner didn't really tell me where it is at. But I can assure you its in Singapore. ![]() Apparently they will make you queue for hours if they know that the rest of your friend hadn't arrive yet without informing you. And you'll only realise so when you reach the front of the queue when the the signboard below stared ferociously at you. ![]() Lesson learnt, do not go to this restaurant, or, you can make sure you arrive with all the intended party then queue up, or, tell your friends to not make you wait for hours. There... *shrugs*

Rockstar updates + Work Anger
BEFORE I START, please take your time to click HERE! My renter's sticking around for another 48hrs so I thought I'd pimped her site a lil' bit more. I may be talking about 2 different topics for this entry but nevertheless the emotion is pretty much the same. Angry music and angry Fida... hmmm... Yesterday I was at work till late. I only reach home after 8pm. That's a record so far. I kinda tell myself when I first started that I'm not gonna be one of those suckers who has to be stuck in the office for more than 8 hrs. Why I was held up? I was waiting for a couriered parcel to be delivered to the office. It was supposed to have arrived in the afternoon but apparently the courier guy told the agency that there was no one in the office to receive it, and he has been coming back and forth twice. That's just utter bullshit, I say. In the end he came about 7.30pm. JOY!! I was so pissed I threw the parcel on my desk and Scott who has been hanging around my office poured me a glass of red wine. How sweet. I practically inhaled that thing and got back to work. I was breathing again after that... thanks to the wine. Ok now lets talk about the rockstars. Most of them put up an impressive performance. The judges was on the edge of the seat rocking along to the performances. My take on last night's show, Zayra, Dana and Josh should be in the bottom 3 cos' they sucked! My fave last night were of course Dilana, Phil and Magni! They rocked man! Can't wait for the result show tonight. Ok back to work! Labels: blog, music, rant, tv, work

My sucky moment.
I've only been in the company for 3 months and tomorrow I have an appraisal session with my manager. Yes. That dreaded word... that thing I sucked at all my life. APPRAISAL! One of the required information they need is my Business Unit and Department. Ack! FAIL! I don't even know where I belong here. Haha! I'm stumped. I have no idea how to fill them up. The killer questions I think so far are... What do you consider to be your most important task(s) in the next year? All my task are important... probably my most important task is to keep my job. What action could be taken to improve your performance in your current position by you, and your boss? Hopefully this appraisal might help me, somehow... List the objectives you set out to achieve in the past 6 months. I'm still working on achieving my given objectives ever since I start here. In light of your current capabilities, your performance against past objectives, and your future personal growth and/or job aspirations, what activities and tasks would you like to focus on during the next year? Blah blah blah... ah! I see the word aspirations. Hmmm... Sims 2.... hmmm... Wish me luck... I really need it!

Damn World Cup!
I am so freakin' pissed at human race. Oh no, soccer fans to be precise. Now I know why the stock market worsened once every 4 years in June. All because of the World Cup. Stoopid soccer. Its a stoopid game! Here I am slugging in the office rushing my work, trying to meet dateline and there you are, my dear clients, happily sleeping in your couch in front of the telly after catching a soccer match at 4am whatever! Soccer comes first... work? Oh... what was that word? Work? Never heard of that word before... hmmm... Ok, this whole week, out of 10 emails I sent, 7 was set on auto-reply telling me that they'll be out of the office till like the end of the month! Arrghhh!! Like HELLO! Life still goes on, ok! Ah... can't blame them. Maybe the company paid them too much. Too much money that they can afford to buy the latest HDTV, subscribed to the premium soccer channels, able to purchase a car and make their way down to the supermarket to buy crates of beers to down everytime the referee blows the whistle! If our magazine don't get published on time, it ain't my fault. CLICK HERE IF YOU FEEL BAD FOR ME :(
