A Letter To My Secretary

Dear Fanny,

I think you should put Miss G to powerpoint courses when you have a chance to. Sorry but to say it is really getting on my nerves when I need to do Mr R’s seminar powerpoint presentation, when he has a secretary.

Don’t misunderstand me, all the content is typed in by Mr R himself, I did the hierarchy charts and animation (which I seriously think she can do them as well) and these can easily dry my first half of the day. By the time he ding dong ding dong, there goes my full day. Mr R approaches me directly for this, probably because I know what he wants (but these are my assumption).

And I am not blaming on Miss G. She has been very helpful, offered her help, but I thought it will be faster for me since I know ‘how to’. When I leave, I also hope that you can stay out from all his “small matters”. Therefore, it is definitely worth-while for the long run.

Hope you can take my suggestion into consideration. Sorry if I sound blunt, but I am definitely facing a lot of stress.

Did I sound very mean? Be honest to me… I have been working under such conditions since my office expanded.

The Da Vinci Code Continues

Was very inspired by Kenny when he messaged me the other nite regarding JSP textbook. Whenever I think of him, I see books~

So I decided to continue reading my Da Vinci Code novel, bought on 12 December 2005, while I’m on my way to Kuala Lumpur. So a total of 106 chapters, and I have finished 11 of them (10 chapters when I’m in KL and 2 for today).

Cross my fingers, but I do wish to revise my Flash skills. Last week, me and chan went to Kinokuniya Orchard, can’t bear to leave the books. Caught something that I like, but hesitated to buy, damn expensive… I can get a cheaper one thru Amazon but I am still thinking. Hope to fill my rooms with books~

Didn’t fulfill what I always promise: to pack my room during weekends. I cannot picture the amount of room space needed for study and I maybe buying a new cupboard, a stronger one. But back to the source, I’ll need to pack first and throw away all junks.

I wish to have a drawing studio. (-.-‘”)

I’m Sick

I am sick~ Down with the initial stage of flu and cold. Now? Restless… Doctor gave me lozenges to suck, 1 for every 2 hours. Because it is orange flavour, I ate 3 in an hour UNKNOWINGLY. *Scratch head* Wonder am I over-dozing?

I have to keep that lozenges out of my reach.

Planned my resignation day, to submit on 14 June 2006 and serve my 1 month notice till 14 July 2006, a Friday. If I am lucky enough, not to take leave in these 2 months, I can offset my leave and officially commence jobless on 10 July 2006, a Monday.

熟能生巧

醒着像睡着躺着像思考
晨昏颠倒
敢情太单调竟然是烦恼
如何是好

也许来阵风雨花谢满地
黯然神伤的困扰
可以刺激那颗 (怎么刺激那颗)
浑浑噩噩失去了烈火激情的大脑
吹风就感冒
淋雨就发烧
有爱就好

我不再逃空虚日子
这一路都在熬
也许爱情就是熟能生巧
你绝对想不到我多渴望
让生活染上一些颜料
是红橙黄或蓝靛紫都好
一圈一圈的围绕
终于能自在的坦承说爱你
火一点就燃烧

Art Design & Media

Yes… I actually got into the Art Design & Media in NTU. Die also no regret. I do up my portfolio, and with the help of Lester, I did the introductory video. The school shall commerce in August.

Something achievable that I have done this week, Fanny’s brother wedding card. Oh yes, I told off that monster, “I’m not convince! You did not listen to what I want to say.” But then, I have Ms N to contradict what I want to say and laughing throughout the presentation. Damn it! And she has been selling me ANOTHER talk. I am already a pro dealing with these kind of people. Totally disgusted.

My Friends

After reading Wei Jyh’s blog, his April Fool topic shall be my topic for this entry.

I am once like him. There are many people in my life who used to be my good friends or very very very good friends. But somehow I dun make any effort to contact them. 1 holiday, I am as usual day dreaming, making out a list of friends who I want to invite them IF I have a birthday party to host. That was like around secondary 4. The list is actually quite short.

I thought it could be me. But I soon realise quantity does not matter. Maybe some are meant to leave a deep impression in me. Memories from primary school is nil, secondary school is only with my upper secondary class and a handful from the other classes, Polytechnic a gang of friends and working society that click of adults. Guess this is enough.

As for staying close contact, I may not be doing a good job still. But they live in my heart. So friends, the next time you see my invitation to my wedding, you should know you are one of them who live in my heart. Hahaha~

The Story Continues

As per what happened yesterday, I offered Ms N help by coming early the next day. But she turn down my offer. So I decide to reach office the usual time.

As I expected I have to do the formatting for them. That group of incapable people, plain useless. The moment I overheard the call of Ms F calling Ms N to her room, I know there are going to be changes or something bad is coming. Either one is not a good news for the poor me working on the formatting.

Ms N came out and told me that they don’t want what was drafted by her, actually Mdm D supposed to provide the changes also, but nothing came out from her. We got the approval to work on that again, as they may not even make it to submit the hardcopy tender. Probably to prove them that we are capable. Everything was completed before time.

We also need to submit an online version via their tender bidding site. I know we need to use SingPass, a corporate level one. Mr K is the finance manager that holds the SingPass. When we called him, he replied that the other side has already submitted. God~

Fanny took over me for the binding job and was caught by Ms F. There was a loud commotion when I walked past the machine room. That’s it… Our effort has gone to waste. They were chased out of the machine room and 1 proposal is still not bind. Me and Jacqueline quickly rush to stationery shop to get it done.

It was already 3.30pm when Ms N left the office to the tender submission area. She received a call from the insurance agent that they are willing to lower the premium. Just when she is ready to submit the proposal, Ms F made it on time to put in hers. Actually, 1 company is allowed to submit 1 proposal. If the market knows the company is submitting 2 from different offices, it will definitely be the joke (fighting among each other).

Just that close to victory and we lost. But MY OFFICE really unites. This is the start of the wars between us. Too much sparks in the normal days. Regional office should be a supreme, super intelligent and tip-top group of co-workers (yes~ we still are), but was often suppress by the Singapore office (which is not the case in other company). The anger and frustration has made us declare war among ourselves. Crazy enuff but I simply love to see people killing each other. This is how I can feel that I am still breathing.

To think back, I wonder did they purposely mess up my template to buy time to complete theirs. And nothing came thru from Mdm D. Did she keep all the information for herself, trying to dry up our resources and propose to Ms F, she has another set? I bet it will still remain as mystery. This is business world. I smell blood shed~

By the way, I helped Fanny’s brother to design his wedding invitation card. Something i achieve this month at least. Hahaha~ Got another lobang, to design a pet shop name card. My colleague actually co-own a pet shop with her sister. Whoa~ That is my dream…
