i always thought rich snobby women, with that haughty look, cladded in jewellery with the latest tai-tai gucci handbag only existed in storybooks that i've read.

how wrong was i.

dressed in red and armed with the latest handphone, with jewels that sparkled all over her face, she spoke loud enough for the whole room to hear that she was an ex-cdc student. manz. i heard her even before i saw her.

well just my luck to actually call upon her number.

she was actually here at the centre to register on behalf of her daughter who would be learning driving. but to enrol to learn driving. you have to come down personally. which is wad i told her when she wanted to enrol on behalf of her daughter. of course that ang ku kueh wouldn't listen to me lah. and openly bragged that she knew my boss as well as the other big shot department heads. let's call her ang ku kueh k. coz she was wearing red. wah lao. now new year i'll be reminded of her.

she also added that her two older daughters also got her license at our centre and that she just bought a car for her second daughter when she got her license. and also because she knew this and that excuetive, we should make an exception to let her enrol on behlaf of her third daughter. okay lor. no choice. and then.. she refused to listen to my explaination about the driving course and said that there was no need to explain anything coz she was so freaking familiar with the procedures that went on. so any attempts to explain ANYTHING at all to her was useless.

okay then nvm. after she went home, she called our centre to complain why i didn't tell her that now we can just choose to learn how to drive autocar without going through learning manual car. kaoz. but before registration i asked her thrice if she was sure she had already decide to learn manual or auto.

kaoz. i hate rich tai-tais who act like they know everything lah.

already say ex-cdc student le. why? want to let everybody know how old you are ah. imagine your age when you got your license and your age now. act your age man. chidlish ang ku kueh.

and of course she demanded that my boss call her tmr. we shall see. if boss makes me apologise to her. i won't ever do that lah. coz i'm not in the wrong. hmphz. i just knew that right from the start we shouldn't have made an exception and let her enrol on behalf. so wad if you are flithy rich. it's kinda unfair to other people who came all the way down to register personally, as well as those whom we told to go home coz they cannot register on behalf of their family and friends. not everything works with money. i only enrolled her in coz my supervisor told me too. if not i would have asked her to bring her daughter down personally.

kaoz. and i have to scold her daughter lah. why must your mother do everything for you. who's the one learning driving? just come down personally also won't die wad. somemore you younger than me one year, very busy mahx? mummy's spoilt girl.

at least if you are rich, be a rich person with character. stupid ang ku kueh. hope her license kena revoke one day.
if you're rich it's fine with me. but don't ever use your wealthiness and influence in front of me. it's not fair to other people who aren't born rich. hmphz. pompous woman.

and i regret that before she left i didn't ask her how many more children she has left.

it's hard.
sometimes you just wish for a more stubborn, more straightforward and frank character of yourself.

It's hard too. to be restricted by the things as well as the people around you.
but don't we all grow to live with that?

it's hard when you feel invisible walls closing onto you.
it's hard when you try to do something, but not get the result you want.
it's hard when... you try to speak to someone but your words just pass straight through.
it's hard when, obviously you are standing there with everyone, but the other person only notices your prescence when everyone else has sat down.

i just wish i could be a little teeny weeny bit stronger than i think i already am. i just wish i were to be a teeny weeny bit more firm in my decisions.

i just wish.

the other day i enrolled some indian guy. and his name was damn long. haha, it was 18 alphabets long!!!! wonder how his friends call him.

probably use a short form i guess. if not. wad happens if he were to be in danger?

hey (-18 alphabets long name-) ! look out! danger!

haha, just kidding. but his name is really looong. amuses me so much so.

anyway went for ntu medical check up today. haha the doctor was quite nice. asked me whether i had to work a not. then when i told him i was working at comfort driving centre, he said, "oh the taxi company ah? quite good ah."

haiz. it's a driving school. not everything that's comfort has to be linked with taxis.

then after that the doctor asked me to lie on the medical bed and prodded my stomach. then he told me not to tense. but i wasn't tensing lah. if he found my stomach hard, it's probably coz of my stomach muscles. hee =D it's my 8 pecs! lalala..

anyway owen is out. i guess it's his hamstring problem. haiz. he should get it cured once and for all. it's so troubling to fans like me =D

and i'm going to quit my job soon! one more week! one more week! then when i get my pay, i want to go buy saiyuki reload gunlock? haha, i cannot remember the name. but there's a gunlock behind.

and there's plenty of new movies coming up! there's the new movie show by lee joon ki! it's called the king and clown that's coming. then there's superman. and there's just my luck. and there's the break up.

haha, show you a pic of lee joon-ki. he looks kinda feminine. but he's a real man ya.

sweet dreams tricia~~

oh manz. owen is slated to be out for 5 months. shit. world cup once every 4 years and he had to get injured.

kaoz. was looking forward to seeing him score goals this world cup.

i guess i could still look at gerrard's performance as well as nakatas'.

and i'm tired. have been working ot the past few days.
and today i met a sort of irritating customer.
it kinda makes me feel irritated when the customer criticises us about the service and whatever crap when they are in the wrong.

already told him the day before when he came that he had to bring along i/c and nets when registering. yet today when he came he didn't bring along his i/c. and still can say we're inflexible when we refuse to register him in! gosh. chicken mcnugget sia. and he went one big round to praise bukit batok driving centre just so that he could compare ours with them. somemore the day before when he didn't bring nets card, we loaned him ours while he paid us cash.

and he had the cheek to say our service standards low. so i did wad i thought was right and told him that he was damn ungrateful lah. wang en fu yi!

me: that day you came you also didn't bring nets card. WHO help you pay?! somemore i told you if you're coming back the next time must bring along your i/c and nets card right?! then today you yourself never bring i/c then want to say we inflexible and service standard low?! don't register lah you! wang en fu yi!

customer: i know i know.. i know that day you very nice help me pay. but today i really forget to bring i/c mah.. okay okay. i never say your service standard low. i was talking about your management on the whole. why they so inflexible one..

me: grr...

see. some customers just ought to be slapped. anyway i wasn't that fierce. just a little bit of telling off once in a while won't die wad. anyway the whole conversation took place in chinese.

anyway i can't remember wad i wanted to blog about already. so i'm just going to sleep.

if not now i'm online there's a certain someone i don't want to talk to. but then! the person keep msging me! and we also not say very close can. as esther would put it, we are only acquaintance lah. kaoz.

and you're only msging me to ask me about driving stuff. shucks. wad's a hotline for if you don't use it to call in? i'm off-duty le can. once, twice, thrice... and so many more times. each time you msg me online is to ask about driving stuff. just because i did you a favour once doesn't mean i'm going to do it forever. argh. irritated.

sleeping now.

haiz.

my owen =(

some asshole was obviously trying to provoke me today.
he was on his stupid bike riding towards me and kept steering his bike in my direction, and then steering away, and then steering back towards me again.

wad. is it that nice to see my startled reaction? or maybe he does have a fetish for a pretty lady's startled reaction. stupid retarded asshole.

and he had the cheek to smirk and look at me while he cycled pass. i should have kicked the bloody bike there and then. or probably throw the can of green tea i was holding at him. irritating pest.

hmphz. and at that time i was hungry too lah. boss arranged ot for me till 9p.m today. SHIT sia. i had already packed my stuff for going to the gym today.

but she should at least have the courtesy to tell me that she suddenly add the ot for me. instead she told esther to tell me during lunch. sigh. two mroe weeks and i'll be officially out of this part time full-timer job. i'll be a completely part time part-timer. and there's so many things i would like to do. hee. looking forward to quitting!

and there's so much application stuff to do lah. sian.

haha oh yah~! speaking of application. today me and esther went to the photoshop at our workplace there to take passport size photos. heehee. the uncle there was chao nice.

he charged us 8 bucks for only 8 pieces of passport size photographs when the usual price was nice. wah! gss! haha, no lah just kidding. he recognised us as temp staff so got discount?!

and he even asked us if it was our last day. hee. but we told him soon. and since he was taking with a digi cam, he let us take mutiple shots and let us choose the nicest shot!

haha, then after that he gave us the 8 passport size photos as well as ermz.. how do i say.. ermz well.. he gave us some collage of the photos too! and it's free of charge! haha, cool uncle! love you!

gerrard's goal was just beautiful.

if i wasn't so in love with owen, i would have fallen for gerrard too.

kudos to liverpool's captain *proud

Thursday, June 15, 2006

right. the pictures you're all dying for.
no. i did not embarrass benjamin.
i found something suitable to wear.
and yes.
i dolled myself up. pretty good job huh. i thought so too. all in 30 minutes k. the hair the make-up the earrings the dress the necklace.
well done tricia. i'm so proud of you. you're probably the fastest girl ever who dresses up and end up looking good. *claps.

okay. that above was before i left the house. and going for dinner. next picture is when i came home. after the dinner and after the photo taking i let my hair down. coz... it was such a bother. haiz. i'm pathetic. but it's only a formal dinner. but then.. the girls.. well.. some of them were over dressed. some of them looked pretty. some of them looked funny. some of them... no comments.

show you a pretty picture then. ta-dah!!

so how so how? proud of me? i was quite proud of myself k. although i did went to wash and blow my hair. which cost me 15 bucks. i paid 15 freaking bucks so that the auntie could mess around with my hair.

and i think she was having a bad day lah. gosh, my head felt so battered up after she pulled and tugged and whatever the hell she was doing up there.

wow. the j1s are definitely getting better at canoeing. so much so that i must admit they are doing far more better than us.

but it's different for each batch i guess. not to say i didn't try hard enough. yupz.

haha, i hope they can win. though we all aren't really so close now. seems like they bonded a lot a lot. but we'll be there for them during the nationals! haha, seems like we (the j2s) always meet up, but we never meet up with them to coach them or train them or do stuff that any senior would do. haha, that one i have nothing to say.

sometimes i wish to be there for them too. coz they seem like us when we started out. no seniors to guide us along and stuff. so wad if we were the pioneer batch of canoeists?

don't worry. july nationals. we'll be there.

haiz. ntu's application package just came. gosh. there's like so much admin work to be done lah. sucks man. medical check up here and there. online application. online this online that. taking up a damn lot of my time. why can't we just register everything when we start school. maybe start school earlier or something to get these admin stuff done.

now i have to read through the biggish handbook with loads of information and go for check up. okay. it's not such a bad thing. maybe i grew taller. i bet i did.
haha, just that i probably am going alone for the business medical check up. coz seems like a lot of my friends are different faculty from me.

i just hope i don't get lost. see. now i have to wake up earlier, to ensure that even if i did get lost, i won't be late or anything. i guess i can't blame myself for having a bad sense of direction.

haha, yeah.. and low xuan is going to smu. or did i mention that already? haha, it's going to be kinda different without her. i hope she copes well without me and i cope well without her.

other than that, life's pretty mundane for now.
it's kinda in a wavering direction now.

Tuesday, June 13, 2006

today i went to the gym. i was listening to my mp3 player and walking along the road when suddenly i just happened to look down coz i thought i saw something.

wah shit. i saw a frog?! toad?! frog???
anyway, no matter wad it was. it was AN AMPHIBIAN! shit sia.
to think i almost stepped on it. wah lao.

wad if i didn't happen to look down?!
eew. then my sports shoes will be so squeesy squashy. if not, me and froggy will both jump apart in fright. and of course he'll jump higher.

so anyway, being kind to animals and amphibians, i walked the longer way around it.

hmmz. maybe it's a test!

maybe i should plant a big fat kiss *muackx!

then TA-DAH!
it'll turn into a prince.

an opportunity wasted.

i could really become princess tricia you know. sighz. OH WELL. it's the frog's LOSS.

anyway. i have a really important date tmr. so don't bother me. it's an unexpected date. cool huh.

sigh.

hope the date turns out well.

tricia off to bed.

sometimes the people around you always seem to be so busy when you're not.
sometimes in the midst of their busy-ness they forget your existence.

hmmmz. i don't deny that i am not like that. but i am not always like that.

actually i don't know wad i want to get out of posting this post. wad is it that i really wanna understand. see. adult life is so complicated. and the thing is, i'm not even an adult yet. scary huh.

people change as time moves on. but to me, they're actually evolving. some of them change so much that they have practically evolved into someone i do not know at all.

then after wad seems like a millenium, they suddenly pop up one day and say "hello!". haha, to me, i'm not complaining or saying that they suddenly chat you up coz they have some kinda motive in mind. like maybe you've become some millionaire overnight and suddenly everyone claims to be the bestest friend you've ever had kinda thing.

to me it just seems weird.

sometimes the person you feel closest to might not even be feeling the same way as you do. you may think he/she is your closest friend in the world. but he/she might not necessarily feel the same way.

i guess life's like that.

sometimes you think you know someone well enough?
but turns out to be, well is never enough.
then you'll start to feel that hey, who is this person i know.

and the worse thing is that you cannot find an explaination to this new found stranger. it sucks when you have this kinda feeling.

and also not to forget, the person might probably not even know wad you're thinking about. these random thoughts in your head that's making you feel fustrated.

and so i have decided. i want to be the best of friend that i can be in my capacity to that person. i guess i should trust that evolution is good. though not necessarily the best.
i believe that deep down somewhere, there'll always be a small part that's not gonna evolve.

haha, and actually after typing so much. i still don't understand wad is it that i wanna understand.
wad is the answer that i am seeking for? wad is it that i wanna tell myself?

hmmm... =S

=P

ta-dah! the long awaited birthday post.
it was on may 22nd, 2006.

that day as usual i went to work and recieved lots of birthday wishes that night! thank you! haha, and of course, it made me feel like a princess that day. so since i felt that way, i decided to self-proclaim myself --- princess teo =D

and obviously this self proclaimed title recieved lots of objections from good colleague ng yen yong and good bestie ang hiang en. they said i was pauper teo.

see. the jealousy of women.

anyway that day i recieved keith's present. which was shared by john faeez and eng yisheng. thanx! it was a pair of earrings which i loved coz it was a hooked and dangling long pair of earrings =D

then someone sent me a bouquet of flowers to the office. which was kinda embarrassing. haha, and don't ask me who. coz i don't know myself. no name on the card.

and yes i know you all don't believe me. but i swear there's no name on the card. and i really recieved flowers k!
pictures below to show. anyway thanx for the flowers.

this picture above was taken when i came home. there! that's the bouquet of flowers! nice right? there's a bear that came with it too! cute!

and this picture is taken together with my beloved owens! with the shades my sister gave me. hee hee. cool not?

and lastly, to show my appreciation of beloved shirley, who gave me a stalk of flower, there! haha, see lah see. you thought nobody wanna give princess teo flowers right! naninanipoopoo~

and picture of sister and me in my room! background nice?

and this pen is papa teo give me de. it has my name engraved on it! but then.. won't be using it for now.

and here's the earring! nice nice? haha but then something went wrong aftre wearing for a few days. sighz. but i think it's lovely.

and this is by courtesy of m.b.a. seems she stalked me and made me a collage of pictures from jc till now. some ugly some nice. thanx a lot lah.

but then want to compile also choose nice one wad. people's birthday lehz.
and this picture was when we were at crystal jade eating. and i was being forced to take this photo with nice flower bestie gave. but my true smile is better looking than that! =D
see! i feel so loved by my subjects. they must have felt so honoured taking a photo with princessy me! lalala..

by command of your royal highness! i demand you to take a neoprint with me!

and that was how my birthday was spent. fufilling and wonderful.

though i still wished that zir would have dinner with me yuan and shir one of these days. seeing him on tv mobile just doesn't seem right. it doesn't seem enough too.

hahaz, glad i'm done with this post.

not forgetting i still owe myself day 2 or 3 of the bangkok post. manz. haha.

anyway i still haven't blog finish. how about work? how about.. friends? haha. how about so many things?

Monday, June 05, 2006

tmr is the day i'm going to watch x men 3. me and shirley bought the tickeys wayy in advance. under the encouragement of esther. haha, coz we thought it wouldn't be possible to get tickets so advanced.

alright then. another day spent with the bimbo. please when we go eat, you so do not complain about wad we are eating, not the double triple chins you'll be having. and do not tell me how fat you are. girls~

and i watched the da vinci code with keith koh the other day. keith told me not to tell the whole world we were going to watch movie together. haha. idiotic asshole. okay lor. don't tell then don't tell. i blog lah. if the whole world reads my blog then i cannot help it.

i remember i last blogged about the pre birthday post. which i just remembered wasn't even the birthday post. manz. when will i ever get it done. anyway. it's okay. i'm the hunt for saiyuki reload vcd! hmphz! i'm going to get it. i'm re-watching the first season's show so that i don't forget. truth be told, i thought it would be boring to watch the whole series over again, but it's not! heh heh. not a waste of my money.

i just hope that the x men 2 vcd that i bought for 15.90 won't go to waste next time too. and no one tells me that x men 2 will be showing on sunday k. tell me and prepare to die.

anyway after watching the movie, met up with eugene liu john and luther.
haha so i got stuck with eugene coz the rest were going to mos. on a saturday night. so crowded. you'll be squashed there.

then on the way home with euegen met chong.
i didn't even know we were on the last train home.
but at that time bimbo and esther was still shopping. wah seh~ don't know how they got home sia~

and i bought clothes! one day's pay. *heartpain* oh well.

someone said the trip to uk might be brought forward. hmmm..
