Rants
just 1 month and 11 days in my new job n here is my 2nd post of frustration... shucks...
my whole department is made up of mostly undergraduates but there is this lady who is older and had more experienced (she's around my mum's age)... she's like the manager of the dept but she's always a blur person... she will ask u 2 do things without giving u clear instructions...
if not she will say she ask u 2 do something but in actual fact no... i noe ppl tend 2 forget when they are busy but i think its a bit too much if it happens too often too...
she oso like 2 rush things... sometimes it takes time 2 do certain task but 10 mins later she will ask if u r done... arh... n it really gets on my nerves...
2day she ask me 2 call some ppl but e other party juz doesnt want 2 pick up e line n she's like asking me 2 call him every 20 mins... she says tt she's busy so she cant call... i mean i'm busy too... u think i'm so free 2 call ppl every min??
my supervisor has e intention 2 convert me 2 perm n hr has given e offer but i just cant decide...
i mean e benefits gd but pay is low n e sometimes some ppl here r really unreasonable... man... tough decision 2 make... ...

老婆 --- to my 3 best friends
had been wanting to do this post for a long time so here it is...
really like S.H.E's song 老婆... besides it being their nick for each other, the music and lyrics are simple... as someone who writes songs as well i think its gd... not every song need big words to make it beautiful, sometimes simple stuff will be more easily appreciated...
bought their Play dvd like a month ago.... and everyday i have the urge to watch it even though i cry everytime i see it... u might think what is there to cry about? the dvd covers their mini concert in taiwan, mvs of their new album and backstage footages when they were in s'pore is it?
yup it is... @ their concert before they sang the song 老婆 there is a recording where the 3 of them said what they think of the term and also their feel for each other... in the recording, hebe did not cry, selina cried before she even started and ella's eyes were getting redder as she spoke...
but what caught my tears were what selina and ella had said...
selina said although they did not know each other since young but their closeness with each other makes it as if they had went through everything together... she said without them she would not be what she is today
ella said even they come from different family backgrounds they are still able to become really gd friends and are closer than most siblings are... she said they really change how she looks and do things... one sentence she said really made me remember it well... 知心的朋友不需要很多，一两个就够了
sometimes i really think that i dont have much friends cause i'm a rather slow person... i take quite sometime before i start talking to people... i'm thankful for the 3 close friends which i have to share my problems with... laywei for being there during my worst time around 2 yrs back; chris for sharing all the secrets that i have; hx for spending time with me when i need someone around...
there are still other friends out there but cause these 3 are the ones i meet most often so i decided to list them out...
if you ask me what is my definition of 老婆, i would say, "its a very intimate term and if you want me to be called that by my buddies i would say the person(s) must understand me well, be able to share all my woes and sorrows as well as give me options to my problems...
till now @ least i think the 3 of them are my 老婆 cause they have been doing everything that i have listed... i always have a dream...
have a few close friends, besides sharing your problems you also have fun together like sleepover, cooking together for your bf, sharing all juicy details of your life, living together, travel together, do lots of crazy things together, etc etc
maybe @ this stage i havent fulfill everything but i believe i'll be able to do all of these someday... ... ... =)
老婆
作词:任家萱(selina); 作曲:陈嘉桦(ella)
从昨天到今天还有明天
感谢老天让你们陪在我身边
爱的心痛的心等待的心
因为你们的拥抱我很放心
当初见面的不安彼此的探索
也许有些茫然迷惑
朝夕相处才发现这世界中
没有人比你们更懂我
朋友姐妹都已不够来形容
我们的默契骄傲
扶持与包容
老婆老婆
我们一起打勾勾
请记得约定的旅程到永久

the sweetest love story
was on mc yesterday cause was down with flu... actually i also wanted to take leave to visit my friend, C...
got a bad news somewhere towards the end of last wk... a long friend of mine had passed away in Canada due to an accident... C was his ex n also someone i had known for a long time...
went 2 visit C after seeing a doc cause she had been coping herself in her room since she heard that her ex had passed away... actually when i heard the news i cried as well... until now when i think of their story and of this dear friend of mine i still cry...
i'll be writing a story of them online but will reveal some sweet parts of their relationship here...
C and the boy were both in athletics and are very gd runners... but a few years back C's knee ligament tore and had to go america for surgery... without a second word, the boy dropped everything and accompanied here... when they went america it was winter and after surgery they went to a ski resort and stayed there... as it was a snowing season lots of people went there for skiing... C just had a op and cant ski then this friend of mine told her, "bear with it for now, when you recover no matter how many time you want to ski i'll always be there to accompany you and ski with you."
C has always like watching astrology stuff like sunrise, sunset, stars, meteor rain, etc so she would always want her bf to accompany her... she told me that one night in america she wanted to watch the sunrise so her bf went with her to the beach and in the cold they waited for daybreak... the next day her bf was down with high fever due to the cold weather...
the boy had always been very clever but C was just average... C once told him that she feel inferior when they are together cause he's so smart... but the boy gave her his assurance... he said, "you might not be the cleverest, the prettiest or the best but in my world you are the best."
all these are just some parts she told me... when C told me all these i could see the look of happiness that sparkled in her eyes... i'll write out their full story and will post the link when i'm done with it...
when C knew that he passed away she locked herself in her room for a week... she didnt eat or want to meet anyone... then her current bf told me and wanted me to try and talk to her... so i went...
for the whole week all she did in her room was to look @ their photos as well as the letters and gifts he had left for her... she listened to all their songs and watched all the videos of them and cry... i watched and listened to some of it with her yesterday and tears just keep flowing...
even i as an outsider could feel their strong love for each other and the passion that they had shared...
when i knew that the boy passed away last wk i told my mum and sis... so when i returned home yesterday i also told them of the story in a brief manner like i did above... i just cant get through some parts without crying... i only told my sis the story @ night while we were preparing for bed... she cried together with me... we felt that its a pity that they broke up, a pity that they can never tell each other how much they love each other now, how long it takes for them to realise their true love...
a sad end to a 9 year long relationship...
as i'm typing this in my office i'm holding back the tears that are threatening to fall out of my eyes soon... for now i have to be strong... i have to help C get back to her feet... i have to help her organise the memorial service we'll be holding for him
C will be going to Aegean Sea next wk to meet the boy's parents and to scatter his ashes into the sea as they had promised each other when they were together...
although they had already broke up for 6 months but who can forget a relationship which leave such a deep and sweet memories?
at the end of this post i just wanna say treasure the one you love don't just let go without fighting for it...
In loving memory

they still want another round after dinner but we had 2 get back coz i had 2 work n my sis n cousin had sch 2day...

Frustrated
well juz when i thought its rather nice working here somethings juz have 2 spoil it...
previously i said tt e ppl @ my side when 4 a mission trip rit? now tt they r back things juz dont go rit...
so here e story goes...
b4 they go 4 mission trips we need 2 do up a brochure comprising of those going n their company profile... n since i was new i was assigned 2 help out 1 of my colleague who will get those info from e companies n my role was 2 help her do e check with e info she gave me...
den yesterday one of e company emailed my colleague n 'complained' tt his company's chinese name was printed wrongly... i noe its 'rude' 2 print e company wrongly... but do i have 2 carry e full blame?
my colleague was upset when she received e email but she turned around n said: 'xiao mei, why u never check properly. my chinese not too gd u shld help me what.'
when i heard it i was like hello the info was given 2 me by you... if the original u gave me have errors how would i be able 2 know...
but i didnt say it out lah... i mean i was @ fault 4 not realising tt e english n chinese name did not telly but u oso have 2 bear some responsibility rit... u oso check n didnt realise e mistake what...
what pissed me off more was what another colleague did... she was more experienced afterall she was here for 10 years... when she knew what happened she said: "aiyo, everytime i oso check VERY carefully de. even though i have been here for yrs but i still get scared when checking these type of things."
i was very pissed after hearing this coz tt time when she n i went for lunch she said she everytime bring home 2 check n check very fast de... a real hypocrite!
she oso go n make matters worse by telling every1 who's still around tt something went wrong in e brochure... shit... really feel like hurling vulgarities now!!!
i mean cant u juz shut up! y go n make matters even worse!
last wk my supervisor asked if i want 2 sign on... i told her 2 let HR bring out e offer den i'll decide... now i really dont noe if i like dis environment or job... i mean i'm here doing like admin stuff n nothing similar 2 what i had been studying all this while... really hope e job(s) i applied will give me a call...
working's really tough... ... ...
