took half day off today and went to pamper myself. or tortured, which was what i experienced.
booked a facial appt at iniuz or something, with a complimentary voucher that a colleague had given me since he didn't wanna go for it. thought i'd get myself relaxed and feeling good just before starting on the new jobbie.
starting was ok. chocolate cleanser made me wanna lap up my face. heh. dim lights made me fall asleep, and i was still very tired from all the exercises i did 3-4 days ago. cmi. when it came to squeezing out the blackheads, i was TOTALLY awake. from no flu to sneezing at every squeeze the girl made to heavy flu. they all had the horrified look when i told them this is my first facial. :s ok ok so i aint that into taking care of my face, but hey, i still use toner and moisturizer every night!
well, at least at the end of all that torture, i got a good sleep, a super clean choco smelling face! =p
oh and i converted from my m one 1+1 plan to free incoming calls with 1000 smses!! woo yeah! i can sms everybody without a hoot anymore.. =p

achy me
went for my first game of fb yesterday after more than 6 months of hiatus. woah. i totally cmi. although i was better than eu and di who totally sat out for the 2nd period, i wasn't much better actually. i could only chiong up the court 3 times, and after that, thats it. totally out of breathe. :s
now im aching everywhere! neck, knees, shoulders, middle back, thighs, butt, arch of my feet, arch of my fingers.. places i never knew could ache at all.
now the girls are all considering whether they want to be in for the next season's league. i was tempted to rejoin them, but it all depends on my back's condition..
now to gear up for tomorrow's badminton. :p

met up with rog ps and hs yest for rog's early birthday gathering. finally had some jap food for a change.
it was good meeting up with them. updated each other on our own gossips, went for drinks and updated each other of more gossips on others. heh.
why can't people ever stay faithful to their partners? why do they seek someone else's attention when they already have their partner? maybe they just want a partner in name, someone to come home to, a last resort when all else fails.
having affairs in the office, chill out place but yet think its perfectly alright just cus their marriage is getting stale.
is it the trend now? maybe im not yet up to that stage, so i will never know yet. sure, it is exciting to do something wrong, but love, can it be given away so easily?

been very busy at work the past few days handing over my application to a new guy. This time they were pretty fast in getting somebody new to take over the resignation.
wad i am pissed about is the shirking of responsibilities of the current pm. i approached her and asked if she could write a testimonial for me seeing that i have spent 1.5 yrs + here. she rejected me and her excuse was that she had jus been in this pm position for about 3 months and havent had the chance to see and access how i work, so shes not in a right position to give me a good and honest testimonial. well, of course i said i will get the ex-pm to give me one, but chances are the ex-pm will also reject with the reason that she's no longer the current pm and so also not in a position to write one for me. (tried and tested by another colleague who left in feb)
and so i said, just write a general one, it doesnt have to be very specific to me. after all we have been colleagues in the same dept of 25, in whatever sense, we will all somehow know the general working attitudes and commitment of everybody in the dept. well she just refused. bloody hell, and i still have to show a neutral and smiling face. grrr.
i am not very hard up for the stupid testi, its just the throwing around of responsibilities of her to the ex-pm which i cant stand. and her idea of being a pm is truly just delegating (nicer word for arrowing) people without even asking if they can cope with their current work. and oh yeah, she has just arrowed me to do the preparation work of briefing for the new guy just before i leave. i will help them for their own sake, but to her, i wont do anything for her. shes a nincompoop. pui.
anyway. these days i feel much happier because i have REAL work to do and not just sitting around doing documentations. i feel so happy that i cancelled my half day leave just to help a colleague get thru his busy period. i feel happy and i want to help the new guy master and know everything that i know, and not be like when i just took over the system from a maternity colleague who just gave me the info with a slight tinch of everything. i want to leave a good name and impression.
even though the management and prospects here sucks, i still love all the ex-colleagues and colleagues who have interacted with me one way or the other.
3 more weeks to a new environment.. yay or boo?

free ride!
today's international women day. free rides for all women on certain buses. yay! the bus driver was very busy telling all the women not to tap their cards. heh.
squeezed with my boy at the it fair today. wrestled away smelly old men to get the lcd monitor that he has been drooling over for months. =p
i feel good today helping a colleague over something which i always say i wouldn't help. somehow, tendering makes me feel like i should do something good for them since i wont be doing that anymore soon.
very random bias thoughts today. hmmmm.

was on half day leave today.
busy bee in the earlier half of the day holding fort for both systems. agreeing to hold the fort for a backup system for the next 3 days. well i'll help him if he helps himself.
had fish head noodles with my boy at great world. didnt feel the tremors at all. afterall i was only on the 2nd floor in office.
camped at orchard library reading garfield since i couldnt find hobbes.
made my way down to sign the appt letter. nerves jumping as hell. seemed as if it was my very first interview.
im still quite apprehensive about it. i can never made big decisions like this. heck, i can't even decide what to eat for lunch. ah well. prepare for more questions tomorrow.
i just want to scream out loud for somebody to tell me which way to go!! im still a lost soul after 20 months. :(
