Change..

It's not always good, but sometimes it's necessary..

Been feeling a little off ever since PC Fair ended..

All of a sudden, I miss my old self..the geek who spent countless hours playing mmorpg and goodness knoes what other games..

I miss going out with friends..doesn't matter that they have become pretty non-existant in the recent years..

It's fun getting to know new people..makes me think that maybe i'm not as anti-social as i thought i was..and that they're not as scary as my imagination has made them up to be..

I quite like the way things are turning out..hopefully it's not gonna be as disastrous as i foresee..

It's not even a day, and I miss you guys already..hope you'll be down for cny..

Suddenly..

As of the past 24 hours, life has suddenly been turned into a drama..and i thought things like this only happened in movies..

Mad Cow Disease..

At my new workplace, there is this person whom i've come to know as 'cow'. For many obvious reasons,the nickname describes her perfectly. Unfortunately, I was told that nicknaming her a cow is an insult to the cows of the world. Apparently, cows have higher IQs..

Cow: Take the copyright symbol out (It was next to the name of a well known brand)
Me: Mm, i'm actually using your template from last year. Was the copyright symbol thingy changed from this year on?
Cow: No. Copyright symbol is not there all along. Next time if you don't know then ask.
Me: Oh..but I'm actually using your template from the previous event
Cow: That's why I say if you don't know then ask.
Me: But how would one know to ask about a copyright symbol?
Cow: Next time if you don't know then ask
Me: Hey cow, i've only been working here for less than a month, you can't actually expect me to know about a copyright symbol? Can you please be more logical
Cow: Ya..but i expect...bla bla bla bla bla

Sighs..

Cow isn't actually my boss..thank goodness for that..cow just likes bossing people around and acting smart to make up for lack of IQ..

Me: The picture isn't clear after it's printed out
Cow: Ha..you didn't do the way I ask you to
Me: -.-" I converted it to JPEG like you asked
Cow: How do you snapshot? How you save to JPEG?i snapshot from a pdf file..and then paste it into paint..click save as..and select jpeg? You mean there's other ways to make the picture clearer ah?
Cow: *keeps quiet*

When I sit next to cow..i feel extremely stupid sometimes..b'coz cow likes to tell me step by step how to do the simplest things..

Colleague: Eh, what is cow doing ah?
Me: I have no idea
Colleague: She seems to b talking on the phone the whole day?
Me: That's why she needs to boss people around to get her work done

It's not even a month yet, but I think my blood pressure may be a little on the high side now..I think my new year's resolution is to be nicer to animals..maybe..one day..

Thanks for the surprise visit

It really made my day! ^_^

Downhill ride..

this morning..when i heard my name being called again to do some unnecessary changes, i was practically holding back from saying something nasty..but right before lunchtime when i went out of the room to cool off a bit..i suddenly felt calm when i returned..i could actually be decent to this person that i hate so much..

i wonder if it's the fact that its friday...and i will not be going back to office for 2 whole days..

for the first time in my life..i actually have human stress..is that even possible??????

gotta somehow send my car to my mechanic tomoro..it feels so weird having to rely on people to send me around again..

life is a mess at the moment..with the previous trips and the future trip..i'm kinda financially stuck again..for the next 2 months or so..glad that cny is less than a month away although it doesn't help in financial ways..but at least its a week off! well...minus a day..and by the time we're back to work again, it would be almost 2 months working there..

hopefully life will b less of a rollercoaster

2011..

The only time i usually drop by my blog...is when something disastrous happens...or when i'm free enough to remember to blog..

i can't wait for cny...its supposedly a good year for the ox..in 2011..but 2011 hasn't officially ended yet..not for the chinese calendar anyway..

it's weird..i've never really been a believer..not in superstitions..not in zodiacs..or astrology..it was always a fun matter..but there's no harm believing for once right? if it's supposed to be a good year...then i'll believe it..

it's been more than a quarter of a century...the 2nd quarter has just begun..and in my entire 25.5 years of life..it has never crossed my mind that i will feel such hatred for another human being...sure, i've disliked people...i rarely say i hate people...and even when i did, it was just a figure of speech to just showed how much i disliked someone..but now, i feel such hatred that..i'm actually scared..

i believe in karma..that's why i've been telling myself...no matter how much of a bitch she is..i'll do my best to be nice to her...but its not working...how do you be nice to someone who backstabs a colleague when the colleague is too bz to help her? how does one tolerate a person who bosses you around when she's of a same level..makes her crew stand at her side and wait until she's done with work to show that she has authority..briefs someone wrongly and turns around and points the finger at you instead..i wish i could b nice to someone like that..but all i wanna do..is wish her the worst..

i'm glad tomorrow is friday..b'coz i dun think i can take another day of this..how can i not be stressed about work when the cause of it is something at work..

got into a small accident today..thank goodness it didn't involve any other car though..there was a black strip which looked like the average exploded lorry tyres on the road..tried to avoid but couldn't as i was on the highway with cars on 1 side..and the metal barricade on the other..tyre kaboomed..turned out it was a metal rod...and it flew into the driver's side left a hole there and flew three lanes across the highway..almost stopped by the side of the road to check but out of habit, first thing i did was to call jin..who made me slowly drive all the way home before getting out of the car..it didn't occur to me at that very moment of all those highway stories on syndicates and how they attack when you stop to check the damage at the side of the road..and lucky or not..i'm glad i got home safe..with a 4-digit damage..
