Life is like a potato

Monday, June 11, 2007

While I was working juz now, I gazed into the pitch dark sky n saw seagulls flying in the sky. At dat instant, it dawned on mi dat I had nv seen a bird flying in the sky b4. I went on to think, itz probably cuz there r no white birds in Singapore.

The scene of white seagulls flying n hovering in the sky resembled the scene in "Spirited Away", which paper cranes attacked the dragon. It was a beautiful sight, yet scary. I wonder y the seagulls were hovering in the sky, as though waiting for sth to happen.

I m totalli exhausted now. Thank goodness I applied for off for the next two days. Gosh, the long working hrs r realli taking a toll on my health. Todae was alrite though, no crowd, no horrible teenagers, fun wif fellow colleagues. Yest was not so smooth though, bout 15 mins prior to closing, I was scolded "retarded" by a teenager hu had veri dark skin color (urhumph). I shot her a stare n she gave mi another one. We ended up exchanging stares for bout 5 seconds.

I haf a new colleague at work. Her name iz Janet n she iz from Hong Kong. Heez. Maybe thiz iz when the cultural exchange comes in. I haf met ppl from Thailand, Hong Kong, Bulgaria, Russia, China, Puerto Rico n some other countries which names I dunno how to spell. Well, language iz a barrier though. Itz indeed quite hard to bring my ideas across at times.

Itz a happi day for mi todae cuz the weather was fine (i.e. cold n not hot), n the happiness index iz heightened mainly by the fact dat I brought fried noodles for dinner todae! I m realli proud of myself cuz despite slping late last nite n having to wakie earli todae for the morn mtg regarding our accomodation, I managed to wakie to prepare lunch n dinner to bring to work! I was realli multi-tasking thiz morn n I was busy boiling water to make a hot beverage, boiling another pot of water to cook the noodles, cutting the shallots, preparing bread n ham n cheese, n baking the turkey nibblers. Haha. My housemate commented I looked like ah sao. Indeed, I felt like one. I dint exactli haf much of a choice becoz I dun haf ani USD to buy food, so I juz gotta bring food!

Heez, I m happi wif the noodles I make becoz the colors were juz right. Yellow noodles, brown mushrooms, orange carrots, green lettuce n golden turkey nibblers! Mani of my colleagues commented dat my dinner looked good! Heeez. The supervisors were like smelling n looking into my lunch box. Haha. Too bad, I dun haf the authentic oyster sauce here, n my noodles todae were not salty enuf. Nevertheless, I m proud of the noodles n the fact dat I woke up in time to prepare! (For those hu dunno, it takes tons of effort for mi to bring myself out of bed.)

On Friday I made myself a nice breakfast. Work starts onli in the evening on Fridays n so I haf time to do things which I like - cooking. Other than thiz, I even fried shallots dat day! Haha. I wanted the fragrant oil so dat I can use it to go wif my noodles some other day. So auntie rite.

My bfast! Scrambled egg, ham, bread wif cheese.

Alrite I m gg to bed. I think the entire house has gone to bed except mi. Good nite world.

To Bui:
Bui I m so tired. Got some realli nasty guests. But days at work r getting better. I m having veri good stamina for standing now - 12 hrs straight iz no kick at all. I think by the time I go bac to Singapore, I m gg to haf a tighter butt! Haha. In addition, becoz of the chu1 huo2 I do, my arms r getting more n more toned, n I haf a little mouse on each of my arms! Heez. Wanna show them to u. Wonder if they will get bigger than urs. Hee. Hope u enjoyed ur Genting trip.
