Mood today: Fuzzy, moody, a little upset Labels: pillow
today was kind of like me going back to work and working full shift. worked from 10 - 9 as i would have normally had. but it was a little different in the sense that it was my first time back at work after a month and tedious period of exams and studying.
well.. it was still okay in the morning, me being nice to customers and vice versa since it was the start of a new day.. but as the day wore on it became draggy.. and felt kinda sian coz it seemed like i was always pressing the queue number and i grew tired for talking so long.
it got worse in the evening when my colleagues were complaining of wanting to go home and customers arriving after work and some of them taking their time and making endless enquiries and finally when i was about to go home there was an irritating uncle. ah wells.. always the LAST customer is the WORSE. it's the same with answering the phone. you tried to be nice, to pick up that one last call before you leave and well, it always turns out to be a nasty customer.
well that uncle was the stupid last customer i served and i patiently explained to him what i needed to explain and started typing in the registration for him. by the time i was done there was nobody left in the centre and it was a little after 9pm and he even asked me what time we closed. he KNOWS that he's the last customer damnnit. then he wanted to borrow my stapler to staple the whatever registration forms and receipts and he couldn't use my staple!
alright, so i volunteered to staple the stuff for him and he wouldn't let me. and he used my staple with such brute force that i thought that the staple would spoil! it was my favourite staple and it still can be used! why should i change another one.
then as he gave up trying to staple he exclaimed, "staple so hard to use. cannot even staple. you all bonus so good, why don't you get a new stapler. i don't want to staple already."
you know wad. STUPID ASSHOLE. don't know how to use the bloody stapler then don't use. serve you like shit still so bloody ATTITUDE. i'm not really being paid to take your attitude after office hours you know. and for bloody hells' sake. that stapler you were using? IT'S MINE. it's not the bloody company's one. I PAID FOR IT WITH MY OWN FREAKING MONEY YA. asshole asshole asshole. stupid pissed. you know how tired i am still have to smile and serve you politely.
and today. two customers wanted my number and wanted to treat me drinks. the first one was an abc who looked totally singaporean but acted like an ang moh with a slang. kinda.. act. if you know wad i mean. the 2nd was an uncle who was SUPER IRRITATING and getting on my nerves when he kept pressing me for my number and wanted to take me out for coffee. gosh! i mean. wad the hell?! stop being so pushy!
and then after a hard day of work for me with no esther around somemore! argh. i had to recieve a tellin goff for having too many activities. SIGH. i don't know anymore you know.
i like netball. i played it for interhouse during secondary school.
i like volleyball. i enjoy playing it during jc with my classmates and the canoeist.
and i absolutely adore badminton.
you know, just because i'm not in any of the above mentioned sports cca in secondary or jc doesn't mean i don't have an interest in it. i do. i just didn't pursue my varied interests. or i'll be really busy i guess.
it's really hard to have gone through 3 freaking months of studies with little time for sports or exercise and trying to pull up my stupid grades and feeling damn horrid waiting for the papers to come when i had a balance of sports and studies before coming to uni. it's kinda like a regime really. even after a levels when i was working.. i still found time to go to the gym at least twice a work.
it just feels so good to sweat it out and feel healthy.
you know. sometimes i feel uni is such a drag.
thank god for the people i meet. they'll really nice up till now. and funny. if not uni would be seminars projects exams. seminars projects exams. sem after sem it's all the same! it's fast-paced, it drains you, it leaves you gasping for air. and plus, the fact that stubborn old me wants to work part-time, not wanting to always depend on my parents for money. always wanting to be finanacially independent. i have even lesser personal time. who's to blame you tell me. who's to blame??!
do i always take on more than i should? but i'm not complaining. i think it's fun. it's challenging. but maybe that's wrong. do you think i'll find working life a bore next time? coz it's going to be mundane. and it might be worse than uni? oh dear. then that's really terrible.
and you know wad. next sem my exams ends on the 2nd of may. and 6th of may is my professional attachment. now how lucky is that. shirley ends on the 25th of april. argh~~~~~~ how horrid is the university. can't they rotate the exam dates. i'm painstakenly waiting for the papers to come. it's really damn torturing.
sometimes i feel that i'm really idealistic, setting my goals and my aims high into the sky. sometimes i feel i'm really unrealistic, setting goals too high into the sky.
anyway. xu is going to vietnam from 15th to the 20th and i'm so going to miss him. and kids camp got cancelled coz they had too many volunteers. i know aloysius and the kids will be disappointed that we cannot go for the camp. but we'll find a day to take them out though. anyway. i'll probably be going out with low xuan on the 18th and i managed to be working on the 17th and on the 19th.. not so sure wad. but there seems to be something on. maybe go k box or something. hopefully the days and time will pass by faster and xu will come back soon.
anyway, happy one year! and thanx for your gift though it's superduper expensive.
ha. and i think. it's a pity when couples like each other, but they split coz they have different mindsets and ideas and characteristics.
me being too busy will always be an issue. but seriously, i really don't think i am that busy. it's just traveling to and fro to school home and work takes up lots of time. especially to school and from home. or from work. takes an hour at least. which makes me feel that i have no time or stuff like that. IH is only once a year i guess. it's now or never. will i form a netball team when i'm an working adult? ha.. maybe if i work in some company we could form a company netball team huh. or even badminton team. and fight with other company's badminton team. you think it's funny? i think not. maybe in the future it will come true.
anyway i'm tired of blogging. feeling much better after pouring out my woes. hope esther comes back to work soon. see! even in december when she's working we hardly get to work together. anyway, have this training course this sunday provided by the company. just looking forward to the buffet dinner only.
i guess even if we're poles apart, we could still work things out. but you've got to be reasonable and a little bit more open. i hope i've been more understanding and less selfish too. i really don't like the fact that you think you are not always right right but right most of the time and even if you aren't right, you aren't wrong either. can it be possible that you're never wrong?
if we don't learn from where we fall, how can we pick up and improve? but i guess i still like what i see in you and i'm always getting into trouble anyway. have faith in me my dear. trust that i can do things right my way. even if i fail to do so, you can be my support net! and encourage me! i'm independent. i have my own way of thinking. i'm your equal. we are partners. we work hand in hand. it's not employer-employee. i have the initiative. i'm a strong girl, a strong contender. yet i'm a frail (but not ugly)duckling where i need your support and encouragement.
sounds like crap i'm talking about. got to work tomorrow. work's tough. short-handed. too many part-time, too little full time. company's not so good on the humane side.
tricia's mood now? better! definitely!
alright. tomorrow will be a better day i hope. i'm going back to hall. where i can hug dear old pillow. pillow i miss you!

there! looks not bad right. ha! but then. i still like long hair. coz it's hot and irritating at that length. but with long hair you can tie it up. but oh well. with short hair. no need to maintain. but need ot buy gel. see how. but i'm still PRETTY. ooh. and i went to watch enchanted today. ha. thumbs up* it's truly and really a walt disney production. and funny. tomorrow, i want to watch hero. and when i go back hall, i want to watch... heroes. whee! then.. it's going to be back to work for me next week manz. kinda sian. coz having worked at comfort for some time.. almost two years in fact.. i feel that i have already learnt whatever that can be learnt there already. i guess that's why people job-hop huh. there;s nothing much for me to learn there and it might be time to move on to greener pastures? but then, other than the pay and the flexible time... well i did meet some nice people and some people whom are just cynical? well.. i don't know the word to describe them but it's not good lah. is the working world like that? ha. well different from my expectations. but i've been warned. anyways, i went to for a mini facial today coz the facial centre VANILLA that xu goes to were giving him the voucher since it was their tenth anniversary. it wasn't so bad and the result showed me a brighter and cleaner face. BUT. as always. beauty comes with a price. the freaking package is exepensive! well not expensive if you consider long term wise, but for me, a poor NTU student. johnson and johnson facial wash twice a day will do me just fine =) i plan to work hard this december. to earn more money. so i can lead the lifestyle i want =D actually facial doesn't sound bad you know. can consider going coz the effect is there. but.. i mean i have so much stuff to buy. i just saw a new anime that i can consider buying.. and i have to get cheryl teo's birthday present.. and.. yeah well, expenses for the month? but nevertheless, it's somehting that's going to be at the back of my mind, till i'm rich. anyway wanna contribute to save the tricia fund oh please, can contact me. be more than willing to help =D lastly, singing karaoke with xu was kinda fun and funny =D and i wonder. wad is love and how long will it last? just have a nagging feeling in me that i'm afraid of. i mean, how is it possible for a couple to stay married so long and yet still be in love? i'm just scared that one day i wake up to find myself just not loving anymore. and it's scary. coz i don't want to. but feelings cannot be controlled. i hope it never happens to me. part of the reason was coz when i was going out with irwin and yah there was a time i decided i didn't really like him anymore and that we should just not be going out with each other anymore and that's when i told him that we should just remain as friends. maybe coz i was too young to understand a thing? or maybe not. coz afterall i stop liking him and just wanted to remain as friends. i don't know. it;s complicated. but just a random musing. anyway. two-timing guys are just such jerks. make up your mind which girl you want man. and end it off with one before going out with another. indecisive two-timing bastard. i mean we can understand if you have a change of heart, but, shouldn't you end off what you started before starting a new one? many things have happen of late it's sad! i think maybe the world is angry with us for polluting it and everything. and not taking care of it. just want to say, rest in peace to von's mum and to the 5 dragonboaters. tricia was here. the cold grey world?
