I am getting tired and feeling tired. Too many tenders coming in, with 1 person doing all the work. Still waiting for my boss to catch on so that I can relax but that 1 big tender is taking too much of my energy. I stil haven't finish reading the tender requirements and yet, the proposal team is relying on me to help them. I keep telling them I can only advise them as my experience isn't sufficient but it seems that they are way more comfortable with me. That's a good thing though.Now, I am desperately looking for someone willing to go Bangkok with me in Oct/Nov 09. But sheesh everyone seems so busy. It's kinda irritating. Let's see, currently I have 2.5 days (last yr) + 18 days (this yr) + 6 days (childcare leave) = 26.5 daysI can only bring over 9 days of leave (till next Jun), which means I have 26.5 - 9 = 17.5 days of leave to clear.Phuket - 3 days (taken using childcare)HK - 4 days (3 days childcare, 1 day annual)Bali - 3 days (3 days annual)Which means 17.5 - 10 = 7.5 days more to clear. It's going July soon. So erm..should I take 1 day leave every month include those holiday months?But I rather leave the country and go for a break. Hmmm...the finance group wanted to go to Batam. Maybe I should go. Haha. They are a fun group actually..older but nice ladies.

Finally went to faceshop to buy some nail polish. Went home and tried them...well, I am disappointed with the colours. I realise that I can only buy those shimmering nail polish and NOT matted ones from faceshop. The matted ones looked horrible on my nails. Sobz. I love the colours but the painting sucks (i.e. my nails painting sucks) using these lighter colours. It is never smoothly applied on unlike the shimmering OR translucent ones.Lucky it's cheap at $6.95 for 3. Got to go get other colours. Or can I practise till I can colour nicely? Some one is selling online OPI at $11. I am so tempted to buy but I have already been spending too much. Literally!So far:Clothes ($320!):Cleocat fashion: $60 (total disappointment at the quality..suspect orders is from China. Will never order again. The top was also torn but yet they sent!)Mayuki: $100Other blog (also buy from Mayuki):$100PG Mall: 4 bags at $60Hubby ($130!):Ritz: $72Niki shorts: $50Father's day ang pow: $200Upcoming bill ($115!):Cartel lunch (office): $40Cartel breakfast: $35Farewell buffet: $40This month's bill is going to be bad bad bad. So far total is $565...I think there are more which erm I forgot what they were. Going to book for Bali hotel and HK hotel soon. That's gonna cause a bomb!I hope I get my promotion asap and hope the increment is good which I heard it isn't! Can I just pray for at least 10%? It would be nice if I can get 10% increment and will help alot with the pay cut that we all have. *sobz

Yes yes...I finally done it! Submitted my application to be a Teacher. It's something that I really wanted and feel that it's more of my calling. However, the main thing that held me back was 2 things. 1. The English test. 2. The salary.Going into teaching will mean a huge pay cut for us. Which means, no more holidays or destress period. I guess I am so sick and tired of the "working" world, I still prefer facing kids/teenages rather than adults who can be sooooooo political! It's just god damn tiring.But then again, MOE might not call me. So who knows.Sigh, let's see what happens.
