Grumpy day
It’s funny coz after i post the previous, i was called into the appraisal room. And it was quick. In and out, the most is just 5 minutes. They didnt have much to say, i didnt have much to say too. It was a good one. Was given positive feedback and am happy with myself 
Yeay for me!
Then i had badminton with Peiling and bf, Teo. It was an enjoyable one eventhouth there is only 3 of us playing. Peiling so mean, big bully. hehehe.. no lah. Just joking. They look so cute together. A great couple i should say (i’m not saying this coz i know you might be reading).
I had a not so happy night. Feels shitty about it. And i still do. I wonder why whenever we are under stress, we can talk crap and being unreasonable? Why does that have to happen to me? and why cant people just respect me and my family members? I admit i am protective of them, so dont try to talk crap when you are under stress. I’m not a kid anymore. Dont talk crap without thinking. Ya, that’s how shitty it is.
Appraisal day… NOT!
I was sitting in my lil’ corner, waiting for my turn to be called into the ‘future prediction’ room. It sounds pretty serious with our CEO, GM and Managers as the panels. I see my colleagues, one by one from my area being called to go into the room, one in, another out and then one in and another out. Hmm… when will be my turn hor?
Wait wait wait… from 9am till 12.30pm. Lunch time, still no sound. Apparently, my GM had a flight to catch and the next thing i know, it’s adjourned to i donno when. I remember, last year was like that too. I waited and waited until suddenly the secretary said, it’s over. No more. And i was like.. EHH??? Me ler??
And the moment of truth, the 5 that were not asked to go in had special increment. And i was one of them. That was last year. This year, i didnt hear anything about being special or what. Just that everyone will go through this process regardless of what.
Anyway, dont think being special is good. Special means more work and responsibilities. Special is just a word. They still pay me peanuts. Like the saying goes, you pay peanuts, you get monkey. YUPP! That’s me.. a monkey. I’m born in the year of Monkey. So what? Why are they talking about me??? Dont insult the monkeys ok? We can do monkey business to you. By the way, what is a monkey business ah? hehe… i know I am talking crap already. Enough about the monkey.
Ohh.. during lunch, Yien2, ruth, Erin and I went to a place (i forgot the name of that shop) which sells super fresh vege and fruits. That’s according to Yien2. But when we reach there, the lady was saying (in mandarin) We dont sell vege anymore. We cant sell lah.. no profit. We only saw a few peaches, apples and some pears. But they all looks superly fresh. The lady asked us to come back tomorrow as they will have other fresh fruits such as persimmons and mangoes. OH my!!! my favourite fruits, besides durian of coz. I shall be back lady!
Back to work.
Free seats from Air Asia!!
I was so excited to hear about that. i mean the word FREE. who is not ,right? And so… i waited patiently and then, Chehhh! travel period is from 26 Feb to 15 May 08. I’d blown my budget for the first half of the year and i cant afford to go anywhere until June (ya! my bday, dont forget okie? hehehe). I’m looking at Macau or Bangkok or going to Cruise. Anyone wanna come with me? Just drop me a line and we’ll work on that.
Anyway, i went to yoga after 2 weeks of not going. It feels real good. Shawn, your mum was next to me and i was feeling a lil’ pressure. Hahaha…. And then Vince and sis in law were in the next session. Surprise surprise… Vince was like, HI JAIME!. ehh? since when he say HI to me one? Hmmm…. Whole family of yoga people, i wonder what they do at home. Do they practise yoga together?
It’s good to be able to stretch my body after a long while of not doing that. i should practice yoga more, i really should. Calm me down a lot too.
I hope to go Sushi King with Jacky tonight. But he might be busy. It’s almost month end and he has target to work on. So, i should understand that. Sushi King can wait
Surprise winner
The Australian Open is finally over.
Having watching it on and off for the past 2 weeks, i find that all my favourite players let me down, big time. Dont know what’s the reason behind them falling from grace, but it’s actually good to see the underdogs like Jo-Wilfried Tsonga won the match against Nadal. He played superbly well but i think he makes too much mistakes in the Finals which ended just a while ago.
And the winner, Novak Djokovic…what can i say about him? He’s a tall, talented and a joker.
Anyway, it’s nice to see a non- Nadal-Federer in the finals. I’m already getting sick of that. Hope to see more good tennis to come.
New color
I have the hair color i wanted. YIPPIE!!!!
It’s blue-black, more to the black side. I donno why but i just feel like having dark color. I know a lot of people will hate it. The text i got from Dancy was that YUCKS! I hate that color most. And Kelly was saying she’s dissappointed with the color i chose. Hmm…
But anyway, Jacky likes it and i love it. I donno if he was just comforting me but he says it’s nice on me. Hehe..
You guys reading this must be wondering why i make such a big deal about hair color, but i guess that’s normal, being a girl. We wanna look good, want people to say NICE COLOR! GREAT HAIR! you know, those kind of thing. I dont think i’m gonna hear that this year but i guess what important is i love it. i really do
I’ll go and take a passport size pic tomorrow with this new color. And i’ll have to go make my passport real soon. I’ll be flying off on 12 Feb and will be back on 18 Feb. I’m so excited and looking forward to my trip. Happy happy
The weekend is almost over, and i’d done nothing on my assignment. How pathetic……
Wasting my time
The weekend is here! Yippieee!! But it sucks too, coz i’m working now. It’s a working Saturday and ermm..have i been working? I dont think so. Hehehe..
I’ll be off to Parkson with Yien2 to grab something for baby celeste (Belinda’s daughter). Belinda is my ex-colleague, who left me behind in this stinking office after she got married with Francis. Anyway, hope we can find something useful for baby Celeste. Then we might go for a short shopping spree. i’d been complaining that i’d got all the tops but not the bottoms for CNY. and CNY is just freaking around the corner. If you see me in my old jeans, just pretend that it’s brand new ok? I am superly poor eventhough i’d just got my bonus and pay cheque this week. Hehehe… so many bills to pay, and my car’s insurance is burning my pocket. My advice: Never ever buy a car, unless you dont have a car or your car is 20 years old (19 years still can) or your car is really dying on the road. Else, you’ll be like me. Paying a painful loan and when its birthday is coming, you gotta pay its bloody road tax and insurance.
Oh well.. oh well…… i’ll stop grumbling about it. It was ME who made the decision to get a new car, eventho dad has a car ready for me. Next time, listen to your pa!
My hair will be having a new color tomorrow. No more mahagony red or brownish or reddish… it’s gonna be….. *drumroll * nahh….. not telling. haha… see for yourself lah. It’s the color that i wanted years ago and i’d been always wanting that color but i never get to have it coz my cousin, Kelly who’s gonna dye my hair will somehow hypnotise me and make me change the color. So this time.. no! not gonna change! NO WAY! i’d told her not to talk me out about having that color. My instruction is clear. Hehe…. I’m going with Charis too. So charis, please..please.. and PLEASE dont say that color doesnt suit me.
You know what? It’s 12.05 pm already. WOW! another hour or so, i’ll be outta here. Yeayyy… and i seriously havent been doing any work, at all.
Have a great weekend peeps!
Moving On
I have to move on, right? Yes… i know i have to, and i think i am
I sincerely wanna thank Jacky for being there for me when i needed you most. I know i had been cranky with unpredictable mood swing and rediculous bad temper but you stood by my side the whole time. I’m glad you did what you did and MUAKS to you. Thank you
I also wanna thank (why am i feeling like i’m in the academy awards now? hehe ) my parents and bro, sister in law and Qiqi for comforting me and being there for me. And to my sister, Dancy. I’m sorry you wont have the chance to hold her again when you come back. I’m really really sorry. i know you love her as much as i do. And the sms you send was comforting as well. At least, i know you didnt blame me.
Thank you to Anas, Peiling, Yien Yien, Rachel, Charis and Law for the kind words. Thank you to all my other friends whom had offered their shoulder to cry on, to my colleagues who had been supportive and understand my feelings and to my relatives too.
I’m sorry i made you all worry about me.
It’s time me to let go and moving on into a new phase of my life.
