better!
have come to realise that i can actually NOT blog when i'm sad and sick at the same time. but now i'm feeling much better. as in mentally. but not really physically. cos it seems the flu bug is IN the office! arrghh. so i'm still having this running nose thingy. coupled with the occasional headache.

tiger cup this sunday. the whole world seems to be going. but cudden get the tickets. damn it man. since when have u heard a match that includes Singapore and u can't get the tickets?! u might jus haf to go back to the m'sia cup days!!

lemme try and give a update. spent wed playing the emailing game over lotus notes with my new found fren, Pree.. she's really fun. and we found out that her boyfren is actually amrit's best fren. what a small world man. i finished work. went home. went online. nothing significant happened actually. not that i remember. played my football manager. and slept. quite early actually.. before 1am.

thursday. which is a day nearer to the ever fantastic and fabulous friday. got out of house quite late actually. 7.40am. 4 mins later den my usual time. hmmm. but fret not. i was able to make it to work not that late. haha. and started slacking. went down to the canteen b4 lunchtime to eat with Pree... and we started talking... and she exposed me to all the ugly side of the office. gosh. quite an ear opener. whatever i found out was shocking but i believe will really help and aid me in my future survival in this place.

really hard to be nice. u wun survive if u're nice around here. all of them are so fake. and u'll hardly get any appreciation for whatever u've done. they are so cooped up with their own stuff.. they dun haf time to bother about saying thankz. saying well done. saying good job. these are the things tat make ppl feel good. that booast the morale of people. but they dun even know it. and all of them are such high flyers it scared the daylights out of me man. majority of them are from HCJC or RJC... cream of the crop. mostly scholars from Imperial, Cambridge and what not. So that is what it takes to work for the government.... and i say screw them.

characteristics of them - cautious, uptight and rigid.

wonder if creativity, or thinking out of the box ever occured to them. k. i shud stop ranting about them getting quite alot of stick for all my ultra long entries. moral of the story is to keep it short. and abandon my own style of free flowing writing huh? destroy my very own creativity huh.... and also all the ideas that come in my brain where i use here as a dumping ground for. lunch time! will be back!

back frm lunch. finally had the chance to meet my camp mates for lunch. time pass much more easier when u got someone to talk to man. but its severe case of sleepiness now. sigh..


yea.. den i reached home (still talking about thurs) had dinner. played game. watched tv. the aeroplane show was so touching last night. the person died. and alot of ppl cried. yea. den joycie called. and talked to her... did some ranting.. and had some good luffs. been a long time since i talked on the phone like tat. used to be a daily routine during sec sch. but yea.. was fun. =) heee.. and meetin her todae! finally something happening after work for this WHOLE WEEK. and i slept at 130am. which was late because i wanted to slp right after i put down the phone.

managed to pull my lazy ass out of bed. came to work. and left for a makan break with Pree at about 1030am. our senior director came into the canteen while we were there. OH MAN. of all people. the biggest boss.. haha. but dun think he saw us. he was busy watching tv.

so right now its after lunch. time check 145pm. eagerly awaiting 500pm. when i can walk out of this building and disappear for the weekend. WOOHOO...

its weird wat kind of perspection people have of singapore. i was surfing around. this site 'things to do in singapore' and saw this weird comment made.

'Singapore is a fine country,' joked the cheeky taxi driver. 'In Singapore we have fines for everything'.
Singapore has a number of frowned-upon activities, and the sometimes Draconian methods of dealing with minor offences has caused both mirth and dread among visitors. The famous anti-long-hair campaign is a thing of the past, but it is only recently that long-haired men were turned away on arrival, or given a short-back-and-sides on the spot.

what the hell!?!?!?!? this is absolutely crazy. and coming from lonely planet?! issit a joke or something??

Consequently, Singapore's shops can be quite unexciting places - 99 times out of 100 it's simply a case of 'pack the goods in'. Nor are the staff always that helpful or friendly - they may be a long way behind Hong Kong shop assistants when it comes to out-and-out rudeness, but a few shopping trips in Singapore will soon indicate why the government runs courtesy campaigns so often.

so true.... so true.... but aint such a good thing when u have foreigners saying this about your country..

418pm now... time seemed to have come to a standstill.. been like so long ago when i last looked at the time... but only 10mins have elasped.... boredom is resonating ard me. been trying to look for interest facts from the internet.. will update on how's my findings coming along.
