Mood Swings

I have started a mood swing label. This is to gauge how much my mood swings.. muahahahahaa.

Anyways... I don't know for whatever reasons... I felt happy yesterday. Like cherry chirpy happy.
Its Friday - so that maybe a reason why. But its really funny, I don't feel a tinge of worry. Eventho my trip to down south for my project is in dits and my travel plans had to be changed many times much to dismay of the travel agent. hahahahaa. I have to email her again to tell her i need to change the flight time once again.

But I was happy.

I attended LSS that nite. This is to go on for another 6 fridays or so. I was upset with a friend but still... i felt like there is some lightness inside me. Its a good feeling... really.

Well I thought it was PMS, as I am having my best friend ... but i doubt it. usually with PMS its the negative side of emotions.

SO hmm.. I am wondering how long this happy feeling of light giddiness is gonna last. :P

Cheerio....

Harry P and price war

We all know that the last book on Harry P is released today. Since months ago, some big book stores have been having the pre-order thingy. And the promotion was immense.
Alas, all went down the drain due to the price war. 2Hyper markets decided to sell the book at a much cheaper price. I was going for RM109 at normal book stores but these hyper M decided to sell it as RM69.90.

Thos big players decided to make a strong statement and 4 of the big kahunas decided to Boycott. Meaning , the book is only available today at their book stores and from tomorrow onwards they will ceased to be available at these 4 major book outlets. But pre-ordered copies can still be collected. Hmmm...

Read all about it here

Funny way of retaliation rite? I would think the copies at the hyperM are limited, hence poeple will still buy from retailers. So why punish the readers becoz of this price war.

MUAHAHAHA i got mine at RM69.90 but seriously if i got there and it was no longer available, i would still buy at the normal price and most big book stores were giving like 10-20% discount. It won't be at the HyperM's price but ... still it will be slightly cheaper.

Also all planned events related to HP will be cancelled as of Today.. Dang. those kids will be disappointed.

But I am happy Camper :P

Saturday.....

Yesterday after having done with my presentation, I was so happy. I thought I did a good job eventho' some of the feedback was information overload. But others said they found it to go be good.

After week of terrible headache and anxiety, I chose to sleep early and then wake up to clean the house. But I couldn't wake up early enough to sweep and mop the whole place up. As I have to be at Mid for Harry Porter by 11am. Hence I decided to skip that and instead of going home straight to my hometown after the movie, I will go back to the apt and do some housework.

Harry Porter was alright, not as boring as I thought it would have been after listening to ppl's view on the movie and such. Still bareable. I didn't book the last book in advance tho'. I thought I would just stop by the book shop and get em since I don't want to line up to get the freebie which is like what? First come first serve basis. No thanks lah.

The mall was bloody packed. people were driving around like crazy when I was walking to my car in the car park. Few even trail me... hahaha but of no sucess as my car was parked way at the other side... the new parking side. One manic drove against traffic just to trail me to my car.. and one lady screen down to ask me where is my car.. hahaha. My Goodness... i thought with the extra car park in the J area, there would be more than enough but as we know our people and shopping malls... any amount of parking space would never ever be enough. I can't imagine when The Gardens opens up. Traffic would be worse. But i heard this new mall would have I- the setan lah... and robinsons.. hehehe.

Yeah yeah I ain't go to life.... Shopping mall is my life kiddin.gggg

I went back after having grabbed a bite after the movie. Was tired by then.. beating traffic and all. I managed to mop the hall, etc. Will continue the chore on monday.. washing the washarea and the bath rooms.. bLEAAAH.. living alone is like that loh.. Everything you pow kah liao.

Lunch Today

This morning, I had 2 half boil eggs for breakfast and a slice of bread.
Then i when I got 2 work, I just continued working. At around 11am, my stomach started growling but i just decided to take it all in until lunch time.

At 11.45, I headed out and went to the food court. Since i was hungry, I decided, I felt like having curry mee today.

I ate the curry mee happily and then when i got back to my office, I felt totally sick. Wanted to puke my guts out.

Till now, I feel unwell..... It must be the oiliness... that i can't take anymore.

Should have just gone with the sandwich for something.

But of late that is what has been happenning to me. I feel hungry.. then when i was time to eat, I can't really eat.. or I eat then feel totally.. like wanting to throw up.

I guess the stomach problem is back...

At work today, I was home alone until my boss got in after lunch. 2 col away overseas for project. 2 on leave. But I didn't get much done coz i was such a sluggish monday....

Glooooommmmyyyy..

Fears - Faith

I subscribe to Fr Philip Heng's messages. So daily I receive this quotes especially its inline with what the readings are for the day. Today I saw this in my mail box

Ord. Wk 13th: Wednesday 4th July, 2007 (Mt 8:28-34)

Fears – Faith: In today’s Gospel, Jesus expelled demons that were causing
much harm and fear to the people. What do you fear most in your life? Could it
be the fear of demons, illness etc? The Lord’s Spirit can dispel all your fears,
but you must learn to trust Him at all times. Ponder on how you can do this.

Fr Philip Heng, S.J.

Its pretty profund huh. So what do i fear most in life.

What I fear most when I was still in High school but managed to win over it during college and excel but it seems its back to haunt me now....

But I must learn to trust him at all times..... how? thats something I have to really ponder.

My fear - is one that has been affecting my life for a long time. But I am not going to write about it. Some time i think , people tend to take it upon themselves that they know whats going on and that they are the smart ones with advises and their sarcasms in their tone (in their mind the good intention of helping you)... Really??? Maybe so....
But I can say this, no one can truely understand what you go thru. Coz they never lived your life never experienced what you go thru in life. Hence they could never ever truely comprehend until they walk that path. I can say this, coz it was thru experience a friend found this out. How? he used to berate me.... and then one day he walked that path.. it was so excruciating that he actually told me face to face, i understand now what you go through and I am sorry for saying all those things to you coz now i know what kind of hell you went through. It was so bad that he now understand why sometimes I don't feel like waking up.

I am not saying that one shouldn't help another. Of course as a friend you should always provide your advice your perspective as from an outsiders view, as it may be clearer. But don't ever ever sit on your high horse and assume you know every DAMN thing a person goes through. Thats why sometimes it better to have empathy. don't just rush into giving advice or try to relate it to how you have done things before , etc. Remember every individual is diff.. hence the uniqueness in each one. No Two person is ever the same, they can be alike but never ever the same.

Sometimes people just like to say things coz they have to let it out to avoid going insane.

I like what this lady has written about in her blog.
http://harajukucat.wordpress.com/2007/06/14/life-of-stress/
This point i like :
3. Go home and talk about your day with your partner/family /friend and if you live alone call someone up!

Thats what sometimes people just like to do, rant once in a while. Give them the chance and lend a ear and don't be too judgemental.

Little Things

L I T T L E ' T hings .

As you might know, the head of a company survived
9/11 because his son started kindergarten.


Another fellow was alive because it was

His turn to bring donuts.


One woman was late because her

Alarm clock didn't go off in time.


One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike

Because of an auto accident.


One of them

Missed his bus.


One spilled food on her clothes and had to take
Time to change.


One's

Car wouldn't start.




One couldn't

Get a taxi.


T
he one that struck me was the man
Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning,
Took the various means to get to work
But before he got there, he developed
a blister on his foot.


He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.

That is why he is alive today.



Now when I am

Stuck in traffic
,
Miss an elevator,

Turn back to answer a ringing telephone
...
All the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself,
This is exactly where


God wants me to be
At this very moment..

Next time your morning seems to be

Going wrong
,

The children are slow getting dressed,

You can't seem to find the car keys,

You hit every traffic light,

Don't get mad or frustrated;
It
May be just that
God is at work watching over you.


May God continue to bless you

With all those annoying little things

And may you remember their possible purpose.


Pass this on to someone else, if you'd like.
There is NO LUCK attached.
If you delete this, it's okay:

You Know.....

After being in the working world for 10 years now, I can seriously say, the corporate world has a funny way to reward hardworking adults....

They reward you with more work... piling them up until they reach your neck and above. U suffocated and then eventually.. with amounting stress, you start getting.... weird... sometimes to the extent where you have dreams of stranggling your boss. hahahaa.

Isn't that true. If you noticed, people who dont' work, always gets away with everything, they get paid for doing nothing. All becozthe boss knows that they can't deliver on time. They have good life. While people who work, they bosses needs them. So they become their effort of making these bosses shine...shine shine.

I am abit tired i tell you. But i always noticed, people like me never gets away with anything.... If i try to slack.. it will come back and bite me.

I believe if you have been reading my blog lately you would knowthat i won the war recently on the piling of a new workload. But its just a tiny war. The battle still looms. Everyday dark clouds just gets darker.

But as the bible says, we are here to earn a honest living. So I pray that I will be able to endure the stress that is given me each day and that I will continue to be able to sustain my sanity.

They say, God will not put you into something which he knows you won't have the strength to overcome it. So maybe God's telling me that I have much more in me than I think.

But lately I have also been trying to adopt the "boh chap" attitude abit. I just do it but if in the end the outcome is like sai.. its ok.. at least I can say that I did it. But if biatch dont' like it, then please by all means assign it to someone else. It will make my life more blissful.... nyek nyek.

Do you look your age?

hehehe... confirmed. I don't... tut tut

You Probably Look Younger Than Your Age

You live a healthy lifestyle and know how to take care of yourself.
You'll probably have a youthful glow for many years.

What European City Do You Belong In?

This is me.

You Belong in Milan

Stylish and sophisticated, you want to enjoy a truly European life - away from tourists!
Milan fits you perfectly. Great shopping, high quality food, lots of culture... with very little hype.

The Brain Just Can't Stop Ticking

Yesterday nite, while watching tv, I was also multitasking. I was working....
Was troubleshooting one of my issues which has been pending for 3 months now.

I worked on it until past 12 midnite.
I felt tired, I went to sleep
But alas!!! i couldn't sleep. Eventho I thought i was sleeping but I could like hear my thoughts and felt like i hardly slept eventho my eyes was shut. I woke up at 8.30am feeling extremely tired. But I had chores to do before meeting up with friends for lunch and then for a movie.

See, my brains just can't shut off... I amprobably in the wrong line having to keep thinking and analyzing... its now even causing me my sleep.... booo hoooo...

Fantastic 4 was ok for me, eventho I have read ppl saying its a waste of money. The Torch.. has got nice blue eyes. My fascination with blue eyes goes back since the time I was still in pinafores. Still hasn't died it seems.. this fascination of mine.... muahahahhaa. *Dreaming*

After 20 years it died on me

*Snif*Snif*

On the day I got back from my vacation, my watch stopped ticking. I thot it was the battery, I took it around town to get the battery and the strap replaced but many shops didn't have strap that small in size.

today I went back to the shop that changed the strap and battery for years.... it was right opposite my previous work place. the lady told me they no longer carry that sort of strap coz the size was too small... then.... i said ok, could you then just change the battery. She said ok.

She took the watch to the back. took her a long while
then she came back outfront and say. miss.. rosak already. I change battery but not working. So not battery problem. Watch rosak!!!

:~~~~~
After 20 years, its has not departed from me. So sad ah....
Maybe its time for a new one.... change change...
too much change.. in a short time.

Thank You , Lord

After the whole episode of anxiety for days and sleeping with my rosary cluthed in my hands, I thank the Lord for the positive outcome of things.

Eventho' I can tell at today's meeting with B that B wasn't happy with my response to her assignment but at least she didnt force it down my neck. she says she has some plans.. yeah probably the plan to kill me... sooner than later.

Anyways, she said loading people with more work is the norm and its expected that you'll be stressed. What kind of crap talk is that. there are few in my team who does nothing. MIA for almost the whole freaking day and their job can dump on people like moi who does work. If that isn't unfair than i don't know what is...

Anyways, I thank God for what the outcome is for now. But have to keep praying that that B don't have her insane attack and suggest another crap.

I am wondering if she is blind.

Having Sleepless nites due to some idiot's decision

the biatch at work decided to make my life difficult. On Last tuesday I was on Medical due to some bad nasal congestion. When I got back to work only to get an email stating that the biatch is planing to put me in some project.... HELLO have you forgotten that i have a high profile project that is on a very tight schedule.

Then that nite I couldn't sleep.. at 2am I decided to write the biatch an email. As at 8am that day I am due to take a bus to my vacation destination. Bloody shit.. for her to spoil my holiday. I didn't sleep a wink from 2am until it was time for me to head out to the train station at 6am.

I haven't opened up my email as yet. But i have been praying hard that the decision is reversed. If it ain't i can tell you my hair problem would soon be back.

if you're hardworking, at in a coporate world youre not compensated but instead you're being punished with more work.

So peeps... please pray for me.
Lord Almighty, I lift up this issue to you. Please help me....

GH.....




The Grand Hyatt, Singapore. Awesome place.... n so close to Orchard Road.. - the Shopping Haven.

Hmm.. G, can i use the tables thingy for this.... seems like that html code are too complicated.

Hmmm....

Ok, i checked my site meter and found that my blog was visited by someone from Taipei and from the ministry of education. Sounds damn spooky.

Makes me wonder who are the people reading my blog.. and what they find interesting about my blog esp when I write about nothing much but bitch more about everything more :)

I am feeling much better now... after a nose of gastric medication and flu medication for my nasal congestion. I was sick after engaging on a treasure hunt since last friday. The heat and stress of wanting to be top 10 kind triggerred all these.

today I am stayng at home to rest. This is becoz if i don't, i know i won't be getting any better.

After yesterday's espisode at work, I believe I better rest more for a battle tomorrow.

I wonder why God puts us in these sort of situation. Why can't for one part of my life be peaceful..... But then again... I guess we will never really understand God's ways.. 100%.

Also on my family side.. things hasn't been so well....

So my christians readers, I ask for your prayers.... I ask you to pray for my family to be able to endure this times of darkness which I hope will soon pass and also for me the darkness and oppression that I am facing esp at my working place.... We could all do with more prayers rite....

Ciao....

How Times Has Progressed

About 11 years ago when I came back from spending couple of years abroad earning my Bachelors, I came back only to find most of the fav brands are not sold here.

1) Nine West
2) Gap
3) Banana Republic
4) Jcrew

just to name a few.

11 years on, 3 out of the 4 brands have reached our shores...

Butttttt
Price is still horrendously high :P
