a happy call sick day

it means no work day.. LOL..

Q called me this morning and asked how i was doing in a sympathetic tone. which i on the other hand, was happily feeling sick cos i don't have to go work. LOL LOL LOL.

actually happiness aside, i am feeling a bit guilty for not going to work. hahha.. sinful sia.. i sms-ed my manager in the morning to tell him i wasn't in good shape to go to work. but being the usual unusually huge sotong head i am, i did not send to the right number. sigh. as a result of that, i got a pissed off irritated manager calling me 920 in the morning asking me why wasnt i in the office. yes. i am in deep shit.

hahaha..

work is super dreadful everyday. i loath calling people begging them to listen to me, hoping they wont slam their phone on me, hoping the manager wont ask me why my sales are so bad, and longing lunch breaks and tea breaks. the consolations i have from work are probably the people. i am happy to find some cute and forever 'on' colleagues there. they would go all the way to yishun just because they wanna hav coffee with me or watch movie with me. haha. and the very cute theressa sitting beside me acting as my office mommy listening to my whinnings and bearing with my tortured working face. LOL. yes. i very qian bian during work. and the random sms-es i got during work. i think the whole office and some of my friends know i hate the job that's y they like to entertain me. hehe. and the briefings, 15 mins breaks, lunch hour and 7pm is the time i most looking forward to everyday.

there's one line from theressa i think i could hardly forget.

simone baby i finally see you smile today...

LOL
that was time to go home. and i am very punctual everyday.

a day at home

date: 16/6/2008
venue: new home on the coffee table

here i am writing this piece about my home (new home) in my living room. and this time, i am literally writing with pen and writing pad with my sec school name printed on top of it.

been writing about home quite alot since i left home for studies in singapore. i'm very sure it wouldn't have happened just 4 years back when i was doing my form 6 and couldn't wait to get out of my home and live on my own with all the freedom i longed since forever. i am not complaining really, being in singapore is one of the many blessings i got in life. i've learnt my fair bits, made friends from people around the world, earnt my own allowance, taking of myself and doing chores which i needn't do for myself when i was at home.

the first year was great, i was so glad i finally grew out from my parents' overprotective territory and built one on my own. but as time goes, with freedom comes responsibilities and loneliness. often at times, it overwhelms me. suddenly the surrounding of cruel realities set in, the feelings of smallness and powerlessness suffocate me. the huge shelter provided by parents would feel so far away and i was all by myself. it sometimes scares me, and at tht very moments, i just wanna scream STOP, i want to stop growing up and stay complacent all my life. i wan responsibilities no more.

'practice the pause. when u're in doubt. practice the pause.' that's what a friend told me.

yes. just practice the pause. take a deep breath and welcome the battlefield with the open arms.

I'm in my new home now. but strangely it doesn't alienates me, which is quite surprising as i thought i'd miss my old home which i've lived in for 20 years terribly. but then. i realised maybe i doesnt matter where my house is located, my home is my family.

anyways, on a second thought, location does matter. i wouldn't want my home to be located in the singapore's ugly HDB or in the middle of skyline in the big city. right here, my home is comfortably spacious where we do not need to use bamboo stick to hang our laundry like how it's done in the HDB flat( the most tiring house chores to do) nor using the laundry dryer (i've never seen one till i came to singapore''') here, we sun dry our clothes ON OUR PORCH. LOL. that should sound pretty alien to city people.

here, also lived my family. not my landlord( they are great people don't get me wrong) we are so familiar which each other we walk up and down the house without feeling a tiny lil bit of awkwardness. when i don't feel like it, i could just tell my mom, 'mom i dont feel like doing the dishes today' haha.. of course she'd nag a bit but hey, i wouldnt be worried she'd hold grudges on me or what.

this morning i woke up alone in the house cos was too lazy to go out with my sis and cousin. i took breakfast which was readily on the dining table and went upstairs again for my OTH drama marathon (i've lots to say bout OTH, haha, but later) in the middle of it, mom called, it was the usual 'have u had breakfast? later blah blah blah for lunch ok?' LOL i used to think that was naggy, but now, it warms me=).

went downstairs again cos the room was too hot, made myself a glass of ice water, turned on the stereo, grabbed my long abandoned half read Dan Brown's and lay on the couch. It feels really great being home.

lotsa memory flashbacks. life was easier back then=). and am so looking forward for my one month stay at home. till then, peace.

the toilet

hehe.. cozy right?? it's like a consolation from sucky work.. hehe.. speaking of which.. aside from the boring job.. people in the office are warm and fun.. it's like a multinational office.. we have Malaysians, Singaporeans, Filipinos, Pakistanis etc etc.. always trying to sabo me go out drink movie and dinner. . haha.. being the lazy bum i always have been.. it's really too much as i rather stay home sleep.. i only got sabo-ed once.. hahha... and i think one of them a bit mad cos i always find excuses to reject their offers.. :-P
