my slacking days are over.. my work is killing me now.. everyone is expecting me to do so much things for them. and they all keep telling me "it's alright if you can't (...........wadever they wan me to do.....), you've done well enough aleadi!". talk about knifes in smiles.
but the most infuriating thing was when RoS brought her over to TEACH me all dat i've taught her when she came. how ridiculous can he get? of cuz i ask the doctors personally in the same manner. he juz keeps asking me to try harder! crazy old man. it's so obvious dat i had so much more recruits than her. wad more he wans? and when i go ask him, he thinks i'm bothering him. when she go ask him, he thinks dats such a great idea? mabe he's juz lusty cuz she got bigger B**BS? i haf nothing against her of cuz. she's veri nice n friendly to me. it's all abt doctors! recently there's this taiwan drama abt doctors? and they starred a veri handsome doctor? well dun be fooled everyone!! all doctors are s0 stuck up in their noses that they cant smell the dog shit on their feet. so dun go too near them unless u wan dog poo too.
i cant wait to quit this job. altho i haf to admit dat it's starting to get more challenging. not as mindless as b4. if onli they would get off my back. hey they only pay me so low can? y ask so much from me?! increase my pay by 1k and i'll consider doing it for them!

=)

nothing much to blog abt.. except the constant worry abt my work.. and $$! sigh. i realli shd cut down on expenses. getting fatter too. muz eat lesser..
and smthg dat caused me to haf deep thots abt:
after u had some unhappiness with a fren, and u both got angry, u wouldn't speak to each other until someone says "sorry" or "it's onli a small matter, let's not get angry over it" b4 u will start speaking to each other rite? i'm not even talking abt being forgiving or selfish here. i'm juz saying dats the normal reaction of a person. am i wrong?
and during a gathering, if dat fren speaks normalli to everyone, including u, u would think she has gotten over dat incident, dats y she is speaking to u again. rite? but wait, i'm wrong, she has not forgotten nor forgiven (ah yes, like u are the Queen) me. she's juz being nice and self-sacrificial to talk to me like everything's ok.
and then, when i realised dat things are far from being ok, i felt so disgusted! she had made it clear dat she's still angry dat i wasnt at her side during the last month of her awful break-up. (even tho i was there for her since sec sch? i knew abt all her troubles, help her by giving her advice. i've nv cared abt nor did so much for another person b4 in my life. and wad do i get? "i'm so disappointed in u for not being there for me" well u know wad? dats fine!) u know wad? u had disappointed me greatly during ur awful break-up, after ur awful break up, and after i got attached. and during a few of our rare gatherings. AND u disappointed me greatly again when u said u will mind if my bf comes for the dinner, even after i told u i wanted to introduce him to the people i treated as my own family.
ok i'm off the point. why am i disgusted? i'm so disgusted bcuz she could still talk to me like normal whenever she wants to ask me smthg, either to borrow smthg or to arrange a gathering with other frens! feels like she can make herself put up a false front to talk to me juz for the sake of doing it. lately she's asking whether i wan to go to play board games. actualli i know that she juz needed to haf more kids in the outing, thus inviting me to bring my tutee along! I didn't know a hypocrite until i saw one for myself. and it was so bloody obvious. dun pretend like u r the victim when u r in front of me. i know ur true personality. it hurts even more to be knowing. i would rather be in blissful oblivion abt ur true selfish way of thinking and believe that u actualli are talking to me and asking me out from the heart of a true fren. and pls, pls for goodness's sake, stop pretending u r some mature and noble being by making urself forgive me and stooping so low as to talk to me again.
wadever bitter feelings or hatred u haf for me, pls be reassured that it's mutual, and by the double. return me all my years of effort spent on some idiot who claimed to be my fren in the past.
------------------------------------------
ok, now other stuff.. lately, after having suffered some humility from work, i realised who are the people i can realli count on. they are my family, my frens, zy and xm esp, and cm. in the past, i found myself too ugly, too short, and too stupid. i was convinced it would take an idiot to love me for who i am. but xm always told me i'm veri nice and will find someone who appreciates me. i will always remember dat girl. =) and then i started looking for the one for me. but i realised dat the more i seek for love, the more it eludes me. things nv happen the way i wan it to. i seemed to haf a wrong perspective abt wad a bf shd be, and i nv found the one i like. (jus so u know, i had some suitors too ok... =p) and den, i became with the person whom i nv ever thot i would be with. the guy whom i used to regard as flirty, slacker and spoilt son of some rich parents who nv experience hardship. now i know dat i was so wrong. he is a hundred times more mature than some of the people around me. these juz show dat when u truly believed in someone, she may turn out to be a total selfish brat. however, those whom u thot were a bad egg in the basket, they turn out to be the ones with u in the end! anyway, my point is, even tho so much unhappy things had happened to me in the past, things turned out fine, and i'm glad for being who i am, and you for being who u are. =)
-----------------------------------
i've more things in my mind. but i'm too tired to pen it down. i haf to get some out of my head in case it explodes from keeping too much to itself. =) thanks for reading!

this post is for the piggy with a adult body yet a child-like brain:
i can see dat u r gg thru a lot in ur life rite now. there are things in life dat u muz experience, and unfortunately, pain n hurt are among those things. 1stly, u haf to deal with ur sch work. always plan ur time carefully. it's hard to meet up with frens during sch term, esp when there's projs. dats how frens drift apart slowly. but sadly, u cant compromise by reducing ur time on working.. it's veri tiring n difficult, but i'm sure u can do it! dun forget, you muz be responsible for ur actions. u can be lazy and irresponsible once in a while, if it doesnt affect anyone else. however, if it involves someone else (ur mum, ur frens, etc etc), take up ur responsibility. remember, respect is earned thru lots of hard work yet lost due to 1 mistake.
2ndly, sometimes anger is the most powerful driving force one needs. if ur frens think u r useless, stupid and uncapable of doing things, prove them wrong! prove them wrong by working harder and showing them results of ur work! solid proof of ur work is always the greatest shield one can haf.
3rdly, always remember. any fren can become ur foe. even the guy who used to love you very much. even ur best fren from pri sch or sec sch. Anyone. altho u dun haf to be on ur guard to everyone, u do haf to learn not to put ur trust in everyone. and learn how to recover from the pain caused from the betrayal.
4thly, after every quarrel, always rem dat words said in times of anger shdn't be taken seriously. altho there is still a certain truth to it. like "i hate u for doing this!" she probably realli dislike u doing that, but mabe not to the extent of hating. also, try to find a reason as to why a person is angry at you. if you can find a reason, then try to correct the problem u haf caused. becuz once u tried to think and feel from others' point of view, u will understand more abt how the person felt, and u will know wad to do. other people can be selfish, but not us, ok? =)
if u cant find any reason as to why some one is angry at u, well, u dun haf to bother abt him/her anymore. come on, u haf ur rights!
5thly, always keep this in mind. no one understands abt urself more than you.. no one knows wad u want except urself. u r the most impt person in ur own life (however, dun turn into a selfish brat). so u muz make decisions for urself, take care of urself and remember ur own rights. dun let anyone compromise u. u haf to love urself b4 anyone else can love u!
6thly, go and buy a copy of Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom from any popular bookstores. it will be a comforting and touching read abt life.
u r not alone girl. let's explore life together!

had a veri bad day today.. kenna scolded by a crazy menopause doctor in the clinic. =(
i wanted to recruit 2 of her patients, but they came very early and it was their turn b4 i could talk to her. so i knocked and asked for her permission when the patient came out. but the patient refused. so i tot, well juz try the following one, as i'm not supposed to force them to participate. i knocked n went into her room again to ask for her permission to speak with the next patient. in the end, she scolded me "if i had 10 patients, are you gg to knock 10 times??" and much more. all ridiculous crazy screaming abt wad i shd do and wad i shd not do. but it was veri impt for me to obtain permission 1st. besides, i was supposed to wait till she ask the patient for me, then i juz pass them to sign consent form and explain to them in detail abt the research! i wasnt supposed to talk to them by myself at all lo.
shamefully, i cried. i know it's too childish of me, but i was very tired dat day and her crazy ranting made it worse. but it made me realised dat everyone else were on my side instead of hers. all of them were not surprised dat she threw a fit. cuz they all seen b4 aleadi. i went back and sent an email to her and both my bosses too. my boss said i did the rite thing and asked me not to think too much abt it. he's consoling me rite?? i knew he'll understand wad happened. =)
anyway, i aleadi haf 3 new patients for this week. which i think is not bad. this job is turning out to be a bigger n bigger challenge as the days pass. but i dun realli wanna stay in this for long.. hopefully i can find out which labs are hiring, so i can jump soon. altho i like my boss n colleagues veri veri much.

i miss kukup!! T__T it was SO SO SO fun!!!
luckily, we were allowed to meet at 2 pick up points, so i arranged for the vans to pick us up from woodlands mrt and amk mrt. however, uncle dennis insisted we had to meet at 6.30am(amk) and 6.45am(wdls) as he was afraid of traffic jams at the causeway. i bet some of u were regretting the trip as u dragged ur half-asleep body out of ur beds rite... anyway, the amk grp was super punctual! the onli late geek was mervin, who came at 6.40am. haha.. the wdls grp, however, had more late-comers! shame shame!! =p
so we set off, with nice weather and smooth traffic. soon, we arrived at johore for breakfast before continuing the journey to the kukup ferry terminal..
we had lunch at the ferry terminal. well the food was ok.. but there were lots of flies!! but, haiz, we juz closed one eye lo.. b4 we ate, we explored the place.. omg we saw so many candies from our childhood!! no longer sold in SG leh.. we were gg "ooh! aah!" inside the shops.. a bit diu1 lian3 hor.. haha..
then we took a ferry over to the chalet..


after the dinner, we finalli said goodbye to uncle dennis and headed back to sg.. altho we all enjoyed the trip veri much, i was glad to be home.. hope we can haf such a trip again!
it all started with a simple email: "anyone wans to go msia for a short break?"
i was realli sick of work, so juz wanted to get away. didn't really expect to haf replies but i received some of them almost immediately! so i went to search for a nice place to go to. weilin gave me this website http://kukup.bravehost.com/, which looked kinda dubious at first. my colleagues were all telling me it's a con for sure and i'll nv see my deposit of $600 again! but it turned out dat the uncle Dennis (tour agent) was realli nice to us! phew.. =p.

the chalet was much nicer than wad we had expected! it was Big and Clean! I could even smell the soap on the bedsheets and blankets! floors were oso clean n shiny! super clean can?? the most kua zhang thing was that they actualli boiled water for us! b4 we even ask if there're kettles for us to use!!!! and there was so many beds! 4 rooms in total, and each room had at least 8 beds lo!! all double-deckers, with some single beds and some double beds. there were 2 mahjong sets and ktv system in the living room! super satisfied lo~! haha..
the place itself was a peaceful fishing village. except for the salty smell of the seawater, it was realli a comfortable place to be in.. no sounds of traffic, only the swishing of the waves.. the villagers led simple lives dat none of us could imagine having. i think. it feels so carefree and relaxing over there!
after a tea break (we were constantly being fed), uncle Dennis brought us to watch the sunset.. it was so beautiful.. you can nv get to see such a sunset in sg.. but i rem when i was small, and there were not so many HDB flats, i was able to see the sunset every evening at my old flat in yishun. it was almost as beautiful. anyway, which sunset is ugly? haha. i recorded the sun setting down.. took abt 2 n 1/2 min. u can get it from me if u wan it. =)


and then, we had bbq dinner! i tot the starting fire part was gg to take ages, so i asked everyone to go to the bbq pit earlier. in the end, guess wad? there were ppl there who bbq everything for us! the onli thing we needed to do was to take and eat! n their bbq-ing skills are the greatest can? none of us ever cook dat chicken wing till dat kind of level b4! it was cooked perfectly, juicy, crispy skin yet soft meat. yummy.... even the sotong balls tasted better den wad i normalli eat at bbq. the $83 is worth it!
after dinner, all of us went back to MJ or.. erm nothing, all of us were MJing. some were chatting la. but mostly it was MJ MJ MJ! haha.. at ard 1.30am, we went out to put fire crackers... the small small fireworks. veri fun n exciting! but oso super noisy.. =p after uncle dennis came out to gently remind us dat there are villagers living nearby, we went back to the chalet.
in the end i slept at 5am.. morning 8am breakfast? i couldnt care less.. heck the breakfast la.. i did wake up for a minute, feeling the responsibility of being the organiser to wake others up for breakfast. but onli lasted a min. haha.. i woke up at abt 10am. =p

after lunch, we went to JUSCO, a veri veri veri BIG shopping mall in johore! it was veri nice! a bit like marina sq.. not as big as vivo i think, but comparable! after the shopping, we went for dinner, where we had an 8 course at a cleaner restaurant (yes!!) plus shark's fins for onli $9 per pax! it was worth it. esp the beijing roasted duck! ooh.. forget the fats and oil in it. i juz wan to eat~!!! haha..
after the dinner, we finalli said goodbye to uncle dennis and headed back to sg.. altho we all enjoyed the trip veri much, i was glad to be home.. hope we can haf such a trip again!
