Life is like a potato

Friday, December 08, 2006

So tired. Still rem when I reported for work yesterdae, the receptionist, Uncle Khoo, said I looked brighter, fresher n prettier, BUT, at the end of my one-month stay there, I wld look jaded again. Haha. I tink Uncle Khoo has got a gd sense of humour. He used to tell us his English name was "Honey", Mr Honey Khoo. Bliv it or not, I blived it for a few days.

Although it iz onli my second day of work at SMC, I feel extremely comfortable n settled in, as though I havnt left b4. I cant bliv how busy I m, my In tray iz always full. The rate at which my mgr places stuff in iz faster than dat of mi getting it out. Not dat I m slow, but there r simply too mani things to be done. My mgr has mani assignments on hand n she has been rushing an advisory assignment for the whole of todae. It doesnt help dat the two assistants under her r on leave at the same time. N datz where I come into the picture.

Juz as well actualli. I m a workaholic. I wld rather haf too mani things to do than haf nth to do at all. I haf a veri gd r/s wif my colleagues, esp my lunch clique. Lunch time iz always fun. Glad to be working at SMC again!

Yesterdae I did sth not-so-tactful. Feel abit dumb now. Was sitting at my new table doing stuff when the big boss of SMC came over n talked to mi. He asked if I was in my final yrn wat I was gg to do after my graduation. I blatantly tol him dat I haf two offers from Big Four on hand, which was the truth. Den he smiled n wish mi all the best in my career. After a while, my mgr said to mi, "He asked u juz now ar?" I said, "Yah." "He had wanted to ask u to join", said my mgr. I was like, oooopzz. I was so untactful. It was realli duhh of mi.

I m so glad I chose the correct PA company. I tink I haf to thank Bui alot. He was the one hu scolded mi for making abrupt decisions regarding my PA, n oso he was the one hu had frens at SMC b4. Dat was the reason I had put SMC as my first choice for PA. Thank you Bui.

Tink I wld probably work in SMC some day down the road, like when I m married wif kids. Haha. At dat time, I probably dun haf the time n energy to be fighting in the Big Four animore. I hope my current colleagues will still be there! They r the reason y I love the place so much!

Met Bui after work n went VivoCity. AAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I wanna complain bout Bui!!! AGAIN.

We were sitting by the sea outside the shopping mall of VivoCity enjoying the nite when a boy came over to sell roses. (Letz call him 'Flower Boy'.) The roses were not too badly wrapped, n all of them were singly wrapped. N so the Flower Boy came over n 'attacked' the couple. "Would u like to buy a rose for ur girlfriend?", said the young boy. The old boy hu sat beside mi gave a reply which went, "No." I tink the Flower Boy was surprised becoz he looked at mi in a weird way, as though to say "Huh? How come thiz guy lidat?" n "How cld u allow ur bf to be lidat? Make him buy one for u." Well, I thought it wld be quite sweet if Bui get mi a rose, but being my bf's gf, of coz I muz be on his side. Soooo, I tol the Flower Boy, "Nah, I tink itz okie. Thanx."

After the Flower Boy went away, I stared at Bui n tol him he was stingy. Haha, jokingly of coz. Den I 'refused' to sit next to him n wldnt even be near him. Haha. Den Bui asked wat occasion it was n said the Flower Boy was juz trying to make money. Which business doesnt wan to make money??? But dat wasnt the worst. The worst thing was, Bui dint even bother to ask his fave qn - "How much?" He simply said no! Haha. I questioned Bui bout thiz. I was sure the rose wldnt haf cost more than $5. Besides, I bought him more than $5 worth of Chocolate Mix from Candy Empire earlier on. GGGrrrrrrrrrrr. Oh well, he treated to mi coffee n cake from Gloria Jeans. But Bui did promise he wld buy mi one next time. (Ah Bui, itz down in black n yellow. U haf to honour it.)

Haha, the piece of cake I had from Gloria Jeans dint taste as gd as it looked. I was spoilt for choice standing in front of the cake counter. There was Tuxedo Cake, Mortal Sin, Chocolate n Jamaican Truffle. Bui chose Jamaican Truffle for mi. The outer layer n the cream iz nice, but the cake iz too hard, way too hard. Gonna try another one the next time.

Thiz iz how the Jamaican Truffle looks like:

Roundie n Salty Buidie

Check out my round face! It dint look lidat yest. Haha. Bui said I looked kuku in thiz pic.

Can u c mi?

Datz all for the nite. Still longing for a getaway. Long long long. Wait long long. Nitezz.
