Boring Sunday

sucks to be stuck in the room at someone else's place, alone, wasting my precious sunday away fml.

sad truth

There’s yet another inheritance dispute in the news lately, between some mistress and the kids. It’s disputed whether the father was pressured into giving the mistress the S$7 million house.

For an outsider’s point of view, it all boils down to greed. Of course, I think the old man (who hasn’t even died for god’s sake) had consented on transferring to ownership of the house to his mistress, willingly. He would have given it to the sons too if they’d asked earlier of course. It really is sad when your loved ones care so much about your wealth when you are dying (that is, not dead yet).

Inheritance is a gift out of love from the person who’s dying who cares for you. If he cares enough for your comfort level in the financial aspect in the future when he’s dying, the least you could do for him is to let him live his remaining days peacefully.

It’s scary to imagine you might turn in to one of them in the future for the name of money because, surely, when they are young and innocent like me now (ahem), they would never imagine to cause such grievance to their loved ones. I mean, for the mistress, if you are already so old and you really love your old man so much, why bother fighting when you can spend your energy to spend the remaining days with your old man.

The children, your parents have already spent fortune raising you from scratch. Inheritance, again, is a gift. It’s your fortune your parents do not need your financial support when they’re passed their prime working age. It is a windfall when your parents have some wealth (however small amount it is) left for you.

It’s strange. It’s like, you’re given a gift but you punch the giver (who are in dying condition) right in the face because the gift is not big enough for you.

a comeback attempt.. after a major hiatus

i’m 5 working days away from leaving my current job, for good, i hope, and joining a new company. looking back, i was constantly complaining bout my work, or rather the lack of it, but towards the end, i think im beginning to appreciate my office, for its friendly less complicated (not entirely not complicated) environment. for such reason, i guess i needed this one year to get a taste of and slowly adapt myself to the ugly working world. for better of for worse, i'm beginning to grow out of my amateur state (both socially and professionally) . i begin to realise that people are not always kind, but they are not entirely bad either, things are not always going well, but there are always good things to learn from it. what i gotta do is to just keep trying and hope for the best.

to my friends who are struggling at work, hang in there :) you are my warrior heroes haha.. hope you have not given up on my blog totally :P

to M, happy start in work! keep in mind we've got each other back for better and for worse :)

saturday night in

There was this one fine day, a girl who spent her past 4 precious years doing her degree, with her fellow colls (one of them an uncle) were eating lunch at some restaurant...

uncle says: u know, i really don't believe in all those certs, what are those degrees and certs holders? the previous girl held an ACCA, so what?

the girl who spent her past 4 precious years doing her degree, under her breath, retorts: SO? like HELLO?! ppl move on la! but u're stuck here at 45 year old!

LOL okla that girl who spent some years getting her degree is me laa haha.. i think i'm getting more and more evil.

it's 1.10am now, and i'm still up working on my.. work.

i've been so living with the motion lately, most of the time, my mind just wanders off to one of those junctions. Sometimes i really do not know what am i doing. is it normal? to have so many things that you don't mind doing, some that you really hate doing but nothing practical that you really want to do?

in you i find my solace :)

omg i finally did it!

how how how??

been so long...

wooots! I'm back to the virtual world again. familiar much? haha..yes i stole that from taz la....

anyways i think i have a major update to do..

1. work hasn't been very exciting, and... nope shouldn't talk about work here.. zz

2. I am an official graduate :D:D

3. I went back to Ipoh last week, and it makes me realize how much i miss home and how much i love being fussed over by my parents:)

4. I got myself a new pair of specs. LOL! no kidding. my mom says: eat until so old then only become short sighted.

5. I spent more than 10% of my monthly pay on medical bills this month FML

6. I'll be on MC tomorrow and yes, am i glad that i got flu viral. :D

7. been procrastinating on my studies SO MUCH!

ok.. so this is it. every time i stop blogging for a while, my ability to write deteriorate. I can't make complete and cohesive sentence anymore.

hmmm.. do u wanna see me with my specs?

maybe next time heh!

Why is it so effing difficult to claim things when those things are yours in the first place? And it makes you seem like you’re begging for your money to be returned to you, EVERY FUCKING TIME.
