Boo!

Lori and Bono is out of the Amazing Race! I guess I am going to root for the next best thing.. Jon and Kris! The race is coming to a close and of course.. I will be keeping GLUED to the screen...


So I survive .. so much for the climax into work failure that I was so prepared to jump into when the week was starting. Like all things.. things always get ironed out and stuff resolved! And so.. I didnt disappoint although I was so sure I would.


Anyhow all wells and I am so looking forward to the weekend yet again! Darlins coming home next week and I can hardly wait. School's starting soon and the dammit Oz dollars just refuse to come down!!! Talk about sturborn! They sure tops it!


Someone at my estate got dengue fever.. wait make it 2 of them and the government is sending ppl to spray the house and check every other days. Dad on the other hand went on a spraying spree and I had a very uncomfortable time sleeping yesterday because of the fume that still lingers although it had been what.. at least 10 freakins hours since he spray. The fan and stuff didnt help it one bit! If this doesnt kill the mossies.. it at least partially killed me! =P


What do I want to do this weekend.. I guess packing the room rates VERY HIGH! I have been coming up with reasons why I dont have time to pack the room and languish in oblivion to the nags my mum showering on me. I hate CNY for that few days where I try to straighten my war-torn room stew with my stuff because I refuse to throw out my mags and stuff.. sigh..


I will clean the room.. before mum really get mad .... sometimes.... soon..... ha!

These few days have been tring for me.. Work had been hellish and customers.. double whammy dummies! Dont get me wrong although I dont work in the front line but the way the sales person have been expecting me to perform miracles.. I have absolutely had it with customers!


I have reached the stage where I loath opening the emails with certain people names on them because I can hear my heart pop everytime when I open emails. That I can tell you is more horrible than exams! At least exams.. you expected the worse.. but it can still turned good. My emails. everything seems like bad worse and worst! DUH!!


So I spent my weekend and holiday peering my emails every 2 hours in to the wee morning. I hate it when people use AOG on me.. because it turned me into this paranoidal idiot who turned bitter and snappy.. and beggy!!!!!!! ARRGHH!!!


So after begging 5 continents.. finally someone decide to help me out.. So let's see if miracles do happens.. If it does.. I can start fighting fire on the other one! Sigh!!


The weekend had been tragically lazy.. After waking up every hour the last few days I simply cannot sleep on time. It's like jet lagged... My biological clock went wirey and I been channel surfing, watchin re-runs and simply just stare at the screen till 3am daily.. I did better yesterday though.. I stopped at 2am! To make things worse.. I get all tired at 5.00pm and sleep till 8.30-9pm everyday.. This is horrible.. and I HATE IT!


Went to town for biz on Sat and then went to kopi with fang and zother.. It was fun actually.. and after a while.. the guys decided to join us. Talk about timely.. Anyway the muddy mud cake from Coffee Express was excellent! Yummy! I can felt my inches when I chomp down the cholestrol laden with extra hersheys and cookies crumbs! Well.. that aint going to stop me from enjoying for sure!


So zohter is going for overseas trip yet again and wont be in singapore.. Geeze! I hate it... no one will be in and no one will be in sg. Wahahhahahah............... as if my life is not tragic nuff'


Anyhow.. ignore my balantly stupid post.. because I am just trying to use up minutes before I am due for execution to the meeting that will deter my how my mood will be for the week or even month.. ha!

So Lori and Bono is still in the Race!


YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Other than that.. my life is draggy.. and I am living for the next amazing race *sigh* Nothing interesting ever happens.. nothing but my precious... my precious TV junkets!

So we had the gathering on Friday like finally... It was pathetic in the beginning actually.. because I reserve a table for 20pax and only 5 ppl turn up.. I kinda expected the turn out but kept to myself. It wasnt until later that more ppl turn up and ended up... I have the most fabulous time of my life just going through pictures/ jokes / yearbooks and hmmmm... slideshow of lina who went totally ballistic with her narcissism.. I seriously think she should seek medical help! Ha! Anyhow.. all in the good name of fun.. We prod that she start her wedding earlier at 4pm so to ensure she have ample time to display all her slides.. geeze!


But everything was all good! I missed them so uber uber much!! And being typical convent girls.. we literally rock bakerinz down at PS with our antics and loudness. For a minute I half imagine I was back in school.. sitting down at our Quadriangle and bitchin'


Of course loads of ppl turn up but there was the few that say they would come and didnt and dont even bother to give me a dammit ring despite I gave a reminder call and their promise to turn up 2 hours before event~ I dont' know what issues they have and it would have been better but overall..kudos to all folks who eventually turn up and pictures as promised will be up asap once I get my bearings..


Of course all of us a bit jabbed now and convince we will do another one again... and which Kel say do it next month. I love to but school's starting and I know it wont be long before I get caught in the avalanche of senseless semester! Total Hate & Loath! Let's pass the baton.. and I am hoping more ppl will turn up the next time. Although towards the end when it come to bill paying and stuff EVERYONE was still the same... Then again.. what's that little extras some of us paid to get this company?.............. Priceless!


So my weekend started on a high and it ended with an even higher point!


Was I glad Fang and zohter dragged me literally to the stadium in the beginning to watch Tiger Cup on Sunday. It beings back so much memories! Although I had a really fed-up time going to the stadium no thanks to keat's friend.. I dont want to bring that up again because I gotten over it but I wanna proclaim if he is the LAST man in the planet I would never ever .0000001 per cent consider him to even dust my windows!


Anyhow.. the sea of red that plough the stadium was like ants circling the ant's hill. The atmosphere was amazing and the crowd was breath taking. To a point where we were doing the Kallang Wave again and again that there were certain part of disputes on the game that we miss. The shouts and scream was amazing and man... we literally put EPL match goers to shame! Just when we thought our Old Kallang Wave shirt will lay to rest in our cupboard, after 10 freaking years I will don it on again to the stadium for the very same reason for supporting the lions.


I totally love the cheer and the whole bubbling stadium waiting to explode. Save for the solitary side of indonesians fans... It was like national day. Wait...this is even better than national day. *sigh*....


I feel so proud to be part of the nation!!!!

So the high point of my week came and went... *sob* I got to wait till next week before my addiction on Amazing Race get satisfied! For once... I was rooting for Victoria and Jonathon.

I am gathering my next high point in the week will be on Sat and Sun where they are broadcasting 'The Apprentice' and 'The simple Life'. I am just a sucker for conflicts! Blah...


The entire week work had been 'labourfied' *read: full of labour* juggling on top of this.. I was organising this gathering for our class in sec school. I reckon it been what.. 10 years? Anyhow the bullshit I get from some ppl are amazing.. I just dont understand why ppl cannot let go and come as an adult and enjoy the company. I mean not that we are all juvenile lil 'ums. I never refuse company especially when ppl make the effort thus it makes me a lil pissed off that people can be so unfeeling and no regards for past relationship. I know each of us have commitment but c'mon.. just a lil gathering to catch up and recall the good times. In short I am just disappointed.. HOWEVER.. I am still happy that some ppl are making the effort and I am sure we'll have a load of fun. Despite the millions of calls, sms and emails I made I am glad at least 15 will be there.. the rest from the 2 classes although I secretly wish they conked off from the surface of the earth... I will proclaim I wish them the best in whatever they do.


There's a lot of mixed feelings when it comes to matter like that.... I can understand why Ro a fellow blogger went thru when she witness some dispersal of her touch team. Guess this is what happen when ppl grow up and change.. Everything's warp!


*Sigh*

Yeah Amazing Race today.. For details.. I am rooting for Bono / Lori and Kris /Jon! I hope the rest drops off eventually! Hee


Anyway nothin' much happen the past few days actually... just TVs and more TVs... I dont want to go into details on synosis that you can read off 8 days. I mean I am offering a different read than 8 days. If you want to read 8 days you would have buy them off the newstand!What am I talking about?! Never mind.. just being moronic!


I had the most amazing time telling this person over the phone my name.
so the conversation rode on and towards the end we were tying up the conversation.
...

ME: Okay my name XXX Ling
Idiotic person: oh.. so u're AAA Ling
ME: Hmmm ... actually is XXX Ling * attempt to spell it to him*
Idiotic person: Yeah AAA Ling your name right?!
ME: As long as you can get me on my DID


I figure since I am the only one using my dialect name in the office he should be able to get me. It funny how he thought he knows my name better than the person who actually use it for the past 26 years and counting.

As much as I hate to admit..Not blogging leave me weird all over.. Is like a blood vessel got pressed off and that leave me all tingling all over. Like something's obviously wrong but you can't put a finger to it.


Anyhow.. nothing much happen during the weekend.. Took mum to see furnitures.. We have our eyes set on a Cellini sofa set because the set we have at home is finally falling apart after 20 years! Anyway.. we are sourcing for cheaper options because I told mum that is way too expensive to pay for a sofa set. I probably chip in a bit.. we'll see how it goes.. Since Fees and insurance are like in the coming months ald! And that would mean at least 10k gone from the savings..


Work today is hectic and at least whiner's back to do her own stuff so I can concentrate on mine.. Anyhow takes a bit of effort I guess but it aint any biggie.. I remember that one time where I have this serious bout of tonsilities and was on medical leave for 3 days given by the doctor. She sms me after the 2nd day and told me to call US for something trivial and I told her I lost my voice and my throat hurts and she claim my work stuff is way too much to do and she dont have time for them.. =S so I rebuke back and told her likewise when she is sick I cover. Anyhow she sent back nasty sms but I just ignore. Duh.. Talk about childish.. she just top everyone under 3 year old.


Anyhow... nufff bichin... I notice how juvenile I have lower myself to her rank! Yucks!


On another note.. Singapore manage to get a 3-1 win over indonesia at the Tiger cup Final.. We are probably going to support them at the stadium this week. Let's see how it goes.. Yeah! We used to troop to the stadium often to catch matches during the Malaysia cup series.. that was so yonks ago! Can't believe it at times.. how much we grown.. haa!

I am way overdue in a blog entry and the only reason is because I AM DEAD BUSY!

So something big happen in the office. Whiner *my colleague who talk like telly tub to the boyfrd in FRONT of me all the time* got dump by the boyfrd she was about to marry in another 10 months!She even got the banquet and the bridal thingy ALL booked up! Well.. lest you think the guy is some hunk.. he is just a superbly FAT PIG who is balding and behave way too kiddish beyond his years! I'm not exactly a fan of Whiner because of her CONSTANT 'whining' in the office to the boyfrd about how unwhite the paper in our office is to something trivial I can't even imagine. At this point of time... I can only feel sorry for her. However to leave your work all over the place and take emergency leave to settle the relationship for 3 days!?! WHILE my work is killing me with requests from tech support more than what Jamie Yeo have to deal with on an entire 'dedication' shift by lovesick teenagers? Give me a break!


Now I know we shouldnt bee you know.. bitchin but I can't help it. Last I heard from Boss... she might be gone more than a few days... Right. And you would have thought something major happened at home? Anyway the whole office from upper management to the driver have been talking about this the entire week. Gossips.. how they are appreciate by everyone... Well.. Bad as I might have felt for Whiner. I can never forget what she did to her Ex. Apparently she 2 time the boyfrd of 2 or more years for this new guy she knew from the net all in the span of 10 days?! I remembered distinctively before I left for the work trip in US she was still with the other guy. However when I came back 10 days later. She got a new boyfrd and boy I witnessed everything from the 2 timing scheme she put up!Well... if there is one thing.. I would call retribution. Everything comes back .... Karma I would call it.


So poor lil o thing who have announced to the entire community of her wedding in Oct will now have to take the shit of everyone curious stare and question. I pity her plenty load so I am taking all the crap I am getting at work in stride! Sigh... So what's new with me but working my butt of EVERYDAY this week.


wookay.. nuff bitchin..

The past few days had been hectic.. everything was like a blurred and I dont really remember what I did exactly to be truthful!

I and Keat collaborate to bring our single friends together resulting in my New Year counting down with literate strangers. Not really anything eventful to be truthful but then again it could've been worse. Went to a KTV thingy right after the count down and gatecrash with carine's friend.. kinda funny but then again isnt something I wanna do. I think zother and me exceptionally loudness doesnt goes well with that group.

Anyhow.. I spent the New Year.. sleeping in late. Went to Punggol to air the place and check out Fang's pad which is opposite my block! Hang out awhile before I went home and watch some TVs before heading out for dinner with hock, teng and al. So we hang out a lil bit and watch a couple of hours of football at Marina Sq before I went to meet fang's and company yet again.. *apparently the single folks wants to meet again and we being the official match makers was obliged to turned up* Hang out with them ard 2 before heading home! It totally seems like a sunday but MAN! It's only Sat!! Yahoo... I like that feeling... same theory as waking up at 4am in the morning to pee and realize you still can sleep another 3 more hours before waking up for work!


Sunday watch MORE TV and basically hang around before meeting the girls from poly, jan, joe and von. I dont remember much what happen on Sunday but I know it rain the whole DAY! I hate it... nothing dries and you all cold and wet just by sitting at a corner. So we talk and we catch up and I am glad that for 2005, I've at least started to attempt to turn up for such gatherings after what... 6 years?!??! hahhaha... Better late and never *shrugged* ...


While everyone dragged their battled minds to work and school.. I was spared! Office was closed and so I enjoyed a very lazy morning in bed and met up with Teng to eat at TM! I didnt know Bali Thai served decent food until yesterday though..After she went off I met up with zother to watch our 'Meet the Fockers'. Man! I love the show!! It was hilarious and one thing though.. I thought the chemistry between Dustin Hoffman and Barbara Strietsand (sic)was so apt! Anyhow.. isnt it funny how embrassing parents can be? I would love to have them as folks! They are so.. Quirky! However at the same time I know how quirky parents always embarassed kiddos like us..Ha! It's like.. too much of a good thing is bad... yeah cool folks are cool and fun to have but when they bring out your sexuality on the dining table as a topic favour you simply just want to evaporate from the surface of the earth..


so like all good thing have to ends.. It was my turn to dragged myself to work today with the usual rush hour traffic *nevermind we dont have that much of a traffic from where I work*.


*yawn*


I am just looking forward to the long break during Chinese New Year...
