Ah-Long (Loan-shark) Harassment

just 2 days ago, there's this weird brown letter that showed up in my unit's letter box.. there's only an address but it does not indicate who does it adressed to.. so when i opened it, my first reaction was: "ah-long's letter with 2 pieces of ghim-zhua (dead people's money)"

ppl reading this not to worry because none of my family members including myself borrwed from the ah-long.. it's actually some1 from the sixth-floor that borrowed from them and in order to "efficiently" have the debtor pay back his/her debts they decided to put pressure on the debtor thru harassing the his/her neighbours...

well of coz their main purpose was to instilled fear to the neighbours by threatening to lock their gates or do a little bit of graffiti on their main doors so that the neighbours could pressurize the debtor repay the debts owed.. and of coz there are uncles and aunties that got frightened by such stuff.. to me it's just a joke for 5 minutes.. the first reason that it became a joke is because the ah-long is so free that they actually take the time to print out soo many copies of the letter.. they also made an effort to write out the address one by one on the envelopes and pasted stamps onto it.. also nt forgetting the 2-piece ghim-zhua where every household receive the same thing... we are not talking abt preparing all this for one block of ppl, just refer to ytd's chinese newspapers and u'll realise that there's this block in hougang that also received the same letter from the same ah-long.. the next reason would be the letter is a joke itself.. with english and chinese sentences that are literally in pieces.. if any of the parents feel that their kid performs very badly for their composition maybe they should seek comfort from that letter..

anywayz.. i think everyone hopes that debtor will do something abt the ah-long issue coz it's rather peaceful in this area b4 his/her debt came into the whole picture..

======================

been mugging for a week plus and feel like a machine.. everyday have to force myself to get out of bed to study.. everyday is just econs and maths, econs and maths... BORED... there's soo many things i wan to do after exams.. just too many things awaiting for me... maybe i shld get over myself.. haha..

one thing to be excited abt is that there's no more night classes!!!! ytd was my last night class! am so glad abt it.. everything will be back to normal soon!! no more weird timing for sch, no more late nights on the bus/train.. Weeeeeeeeeee.....

Sayonara IBM

finally everything came to an end at IBM on friday... it's a very much a normal day.. nth special in particular only that i did not do much work though... everthing is fun at IBM with the ppl i've met there although the job itself is just so-so..

Presenting the girls i've spent sooo much time with everyday..

Bad (Horrible?) Day....

woke up this morning feeling very very sleepy.. and considering the distance i have to walk to get to the office pissed me off... it's weird.. because i've been walking the same distance for well almost 5 months and suddenly i just got pissed this one fine day.. and i was so tired that i almost felt that i could fell alseep standing.. at least my last day is this friday, this is something to be thrilled about..

ppl reading this might think that i hate my job at IBM... i don't hate it in fact my stay at IBM is one of the most relax and fun job.. it's just that my job satisfaction has decreased to zero and if i were to continue working it might just become a negative figure.. =P

==================

my dog got pissed with my mother ytd... tats NEWS.. haha.. according to my mom, after she cleaned the house she was rushing to bedok central to settle some stuff so she did not gave my dog a hug or pat before she left him in the cage and went out... when she got home and open the cage door, he refuse to look at my mom or even go out of the cage.. talking abt attitue man... even when he could nt reach for his toy he refuses to bark for my mother to get it for him.. he just tried to get the toy out by himself and when he could not get the toy out he just stayed at one corner.. so he stayed in his cage for a few hours until i got home.. haha.. i only know my dog has a "thing" for cleanliness, when did he developed such "attitute"??? hehe..

future hsewife?

somehow i'm feeling more n more "housewife" everyday... buying very insignificant stuff are like one of my task nowadays.. having to get groceries for my mom, make sure there's sufficient tissue supply for the family, getting toiletries and i even bought bedsheets for my mom and myself yesterday..

it's just so "woah" because why the toot am i getting bedsheets instead of my mother because she's the one who complained that we need new bedsheets??? the sequence sounds very wrong somewhere.. shouldn't i as the daughter tell her that "mommy... we need new bedsheets!!" instead of "nu er ah...yao mai xin de chuang dan liao..." (daughter ah... have to buy new bedsheets liao..) it's just soooo wrong for a mother to tell daughter such things...

i do not want to go back to work tmr... i'm suppose to leave the job~~~~~~ argh... hopefully my new supervisor is back tmr and i can quit by wed...

IMF (Impossible Mission Force)

went to watch Mission Impossible 3 ytd.... Review: "All thumbs up!!!" haha... the MI series are always my number 1 action flim.. never failed to missed it because there's tom cruise!! heheee.... well of coz the plot is good too.. =>

there's so many movies that i wanted to watch!!!!

no sch day...

finally manage to steal some time off work to blog.. recently had this feeling that everything is falling apart slowly... can't seem to control things that used to be under control.. at times i feel that i've tried too hard to do things my way and perhaps that's y i'm getting rather hostile towards certain things/behaviours nowadays...

i wish i'm a child again... so that i don't have to bother abt surviving in the real world... everything is taken care of by my parents.. it's so tiring being an adult, there are so many things to vex abt.. work, money, qualifications, relationships are all in the stupid list.. i don't like to "theory" of "u work because u need the cash".. it's like a stupid cycle, first u ended up finding a job because u need money, then when u start working u can't stop because the demand for money is like an infinite loop.. even if u quit, u'll ended up searching for another job because u run out of cash... i dreaded this cycle but there's nth i could do as i'm trapped in the cycle too..

working for almost a yr without any proper "my" time excluding public holidays and medical leaves tells me that i shld put a stop for now.. i've decided to quit my job at ibm.. was contemplating for almost a week before i made this decision on monday... for now, i'll have to wait for my new supervisor to come back from her leave and "ta-dah" i'll be out of ibm hopefully by next week.. hopefully there's not much implications as i've had done the hand-overs for my previous position.. as for my new position, not much has been taught to me as from wat i see they don't really need me at all.. my boss had me there because he was kind enough to let me earn extra cash for another 1.5 months.. i personally appreciate his efforts to help me but i really need a break for myself and of coz for my exams...

also, ting has left for new jersey ytd.. din get to send her off because of my class.. i guess she's still on the plane now with her friends.. was so envious that i "request" to go with her by hiding in the suitcase.. haha.... it's ok to pay for the extra luggage weight thingy.. i'm sure it's much cheaper than paying an extra airplane tix.. hehe.. of coz she rejected my kind offer thats y i'm still here blogging... =P

movies i wanna watch..

Poseidon

Mission Impossible 3

The Da Vinci Code

X-Men 3

leave day..

due to many many reasons, i've decided to take leave for today.. one of the most important reason is it's too painful to face to my left from 9am to 6pm.. well.. i shall not tell myself that she's new anymore coz it's been almost 3 weeks of her training and i shall nt feel that i'm nt a gd mentor bcoz i did wat i could.. the only truth left is she's incompetent.. i've always like this sentence from the elderly (it's suppose to be in hokkien), "be smart, don't act smart".. that clearly describes how i feel..

anywayz.. i'm finally able to have a rest and study because ytd's maths lecture on matrices is just too overwhelming and super tedious... i need a maths n econs guru!!!!!!!!

finally an update..

somehow i din realise that i'm so busy that i did not update my blog for some time.. but i don't feel busy it's just that time is not enough for "ME" period.. long weekend is over n sad to say that i've not accomplished wat i'm suppose to do like studying...

saturday was 85 session n finally there's like more ppl there instead of only me n shu each time we went there.. well.. glad that everyones (urm.. on the whole? or maybe majority) is fine with their own lives.. went hm with sever running nose...

woke up on sunday morning feeling like shit.. everything seems wrong.. nose is leaking, throat is playing drums with me.. it just feels sucky and had to go town to buy present and went to celine's bdae bbq..

came to the office feeling even worst as somehow i feel that my legs doesn't belong to me.. everything seems to be in slow-mode.. my supervisor was kind enuff to tell me that i could finish all my work and head home early.. but turning to my left, i could only smile at her... true enough.. i managed to finish my work only at arnd 3pm and i'm suppose to leave at 4pm.. so much so for early i still decided to leave at 3pm.. as another minute facing to my left i'll juz erupt like a volcano..

note: she shld be glad that i'm sick otherwise i'll be much more hostile to her.. =P
