Had a talk with my mgr (one of them), he's pretty nice...easy for me to get along with. I guess I understand the position he is in now esp as a new comer into the office. He says it's different in the M office compared to Sin. Just told him to hang in there. We can always "ST" (a mode of chat on lotus notes) each other to chit chat. But I told him frankly today that my bonus depends on his review! (heehee)
Anyway as I was coming home today. Just felt abit sad...maybe cos of the feeling of getting sick...or maybe I overdid it in the office. Spent alot of time trying to put out fire which was created by others. Helping them solve the problem, that in turn solving my own. Plus I think one of the Analyst starting to dislike me a little...cos I had been meddling with her work. But it ain't my fault! Her figures was wrong in the begining. She didn't check first, sent to "big shot" Finance lady who sent an email firing the B mgr, B mgr asked for my help which I did by staying till late to figure out the problem! Even my other colleagues kept telling me, it's NOT my job. Basically told her, if I dun check...who will. Eventually somehow someone will point a wonderful finger at someone else. I hate to see politics happening our area!! I really like the pple i work with currently n my ex-office pple too. Somehow I am glad that I worked with alot of pple who is willing to teach and listen!
Anyway, I think I talk too much. Need to clean up that habit. *sigh. I better go wash up, take a pandol and sleep. ZZZZzzzz

Just found out today that a fren had her customary wedding last year. It sorta strike me that I always thought of her and the others as friends but apparently I had been left out since we left school. Mind you, it's not that I didn't try to keep in contact, it was the other way round where I was left out intentionally.
Like I mention the other post, I didn't like earlier school life. Feel like there is so much more "politics" there rather than in Polytechnic. Felt like an outcast but then again in Poly, Uni and work...I had met alot of intelligent, warm, loving and nicest people that had kept in contact with me (even though I had married early and had kids!).
I guess part of the reason might be that I married earlier, I moved on to a different pharse of life earlier than most...so friendship sorta deteriorated. However, this actually brought some light to me. Those who meant to be lifelong friends are meant to be. They will always be with you (supporting or even criticising) regardless what happens. Those are the people more worth keeping in contact.
So for those that who know they are my friends (*grin*), BIG HUGZ to u guys. Thanks for being there for me...regardless what happens!

Took leave today for the purpose of doing my assignment, however I finished it on Sat and emailed the draft to my lecturer. Which he promptly replied today that he will let me know by tonight if it's a good enough pass(Mind you, it's due on THIS THURS). But it's a relief to feel that it's almost over.....
Hmm..actually I dun think relief is a good word to use. I kinda feel LOST! Am abit unsure what to do after that. Close frens tell me, it's time I take a break. However, whenever I take a break, I feel it's like a waste of time. We have sooooooo many hrs a day but we spend alot of time wasting it. Maybe I should contemplate on starting a busines, but what business?!?! I dun think i have much of a business sense though. I worry too much of losing the capital. Hmmm...let me just con't contemplating.
Went to Blossoms Condo to have a look at their showroom. Technically, just to sniff out if I can "Steal" some ideas for our flat. Part of me want to make my flat look nice, but part of me is telling myself what's the point esp when I have no intention of staying there? However, the "nice" part of me is a stronger pull. Heehee...well, let's see by end of the yr, how the flat will look like!
CNY is coming. Changed $$ already. Burning a big hole in the pocket but then it's a necessity which u can't escape. Giving ang pows is a tradition that one must continue...cos when we are younger we receive...so now, it's time to return. =) Just got myself a pair of shorts that I probably will wear of new yr. Kinda cool...purple colour! *grin* Now thinking if I should get a pair of heels or mules to suit the shorts. It's the spending season...spend spend spend!

Everything seems to be going pretty well today, except that MIL nagged at dh (which IS a good thing). Hopefully, he will listen and learn how to communicate with his parents more. Dun think it's suppose to be my duty to tell them everything...good or bad.
Had an early reunion dinner with parents, went to Seafood Paradise. They renovated the place. The crabs was cooked in a nice cream sauce but the crab size was pathetic. Maybe it's due to the season.
I managed to finish my assignment and sent a copy to my lecturer to vent. I only need a "good" pass though of course, I hope for a credit which is unlikely to happen...coz I HATE this module. When I mean HATE...I really mean it. It's the 3rd time I am doing it (after dropping it twice in two semester - mind you, not that I failed!). Got another 6 days before I got to hand it up.
I surfed the web more. Found another site that sells SHOES. I gladly admit, I am a shoe addict. I love shoes, but I can't wear most of them due to my awlful toe injury. Sadz... :(
Anyway, here they are:
Blue/Black shoe - SGD18!
Pinkish Shoe - SGD11!
Cute pink heels - SGD11!Still go a couple of stuff I am looking at...*grin*. Tempted to arrange an order, but it's too tedious! HAHAHA See how it goes.

Got this from my student's blog.
Falling in love
Falling in love and love are two quiet different feeling. Falling in love can be either a flash of emotions or a first step towards love.
Falling in love is a strong instinctive attraction to the person of the other sex. In case it’s mutual and both lovers will work at their relationships one day that feeling can grow into love. Falling in love is crazy, it very physical, it’s when knees are getting weak and temperature rises, love is calm, comfortable and mental.
You have to do nothing to fall in love and often there’s either nothing you can do to stop falling in love. It’s very illogical: you suffer from splashes of emotions, doubts, can’t fully control yourself and it’s all because of a person you usually almost don’t know. When we fall in love nature shows all it’s power on us. Sometimes it even goes against our sense when we understand that we can’t expect nothing good from these relationships that it’s the wrong person but still can do nothing about ourselves.
Falling in love is the call of our sex but the object is instinctually chosen according to our ideals, dreams and etc although we may not realize it. We usually fall in love with the appearance of the person, with the way he/she walks, the way he/she talks. Sometimes we impute to our object of love some illusional, ideal qualities and the more we get to know that that person the less we fall for him or her. That’s when the feeling disappears eve faster than it appeared.
The more two persons get to know each other, the more comfortable they get the less sharp, bright and exciting the feeling gets. Some couples continue their relationships and get married in the end some fall apart. It’s reasonable to say that a second pair of slippers by the bed and one more toothbrush in the bathroom is the end of that crazy falling in love but it also can be the beginning of something more serious.
Different people fall in love more or less often than other. Some are switching partners enjoying crazy emotions which never turn with them into a real love.
Some may fall in love for a short time while having some permanent partner they love, this can even ruin some stable relationships. Some can claim to be in love with two people at the same time. These are usually two very different people so that one can’t choose which type is better but can neither afford to take both. In the center of love there’s always only one person.
We may call falling in love some kind of a temporary illness both mental and physical and won’t be very wrong. Some will say that it’s destructive, selfish, possessive, blind and give falling in love many other unpleasant definitions. But have those people ever been in love? Because if they have they would know that it differs from any other illness in on very essential way – it can be very pleasant. People nowadays often turn to antidepressants and drugs because it makes them feel better in the first case and makes them high in the second.
Falling in love is the most natural and the least harmless kind of doping. Yes, it’s not mural, it never looks in the future, in fact it has no future but it gives life some spirit of freshness and youthfulness.
