New handphone

Recently my Samsung U600 handphone just suddenly died on me.. The touch screen cannot touch liao..Damn..It's been a week that I finally bought a new Sony Ericsson T700 handphone..Yes, I know it is a old model but I bought it for the sake of a new handphone (though I got a spare Nokia hp which I can't remember the model cos it's old too but TOUGH) So I am thinking might as well sign up a new line. In the end I went to Starhub and signed up a new line. So YES, I, again, got two lines. I will annonuce my new number in due time. And YES, I will cancel the current line in 7 months time.^^

NY Eve

Just got to know I have to work on NY Eve which I had supposed to take leave. But anyway I agreed to work since I got my fair share of enjoyment on X'mas Eve and also under the "bo bian" act. I knew I could not escape work in the end. Anw I choose to work for the eve duty rather than going back to normal shift work. Not because I want more adventure but I just hate the thought of going back to shift. It just sucks big time..

X'mas Eve

I was lucky that I did not kena duty this X'mas Eve but was told to do another duty on X'mas day itself. Anyhow, I am not going to talk about that lame duty. Since it was so RARE for me NOT working on X'mas Eve, and it so happened my friend called me and "jio" me go out. So I decided to join him and his girlfriend together with my wife. Went to Orchard for awhile just to eat "Rabbit" sharkfin at Lucky Plaza. Not staying there long because I know what is going to happen next in the later hours. None which interests me. Anw we went Crazy Hours near Keong Siak Road. It was a chillout pub and we had some games and it got abit craizer at the later part. The night really went well with just the right friend at the right time..^^

Reality

I should have known it. Result is out for my application and was unsuccessful. Anw I did not give high hopes for this application because I somehow or rather know they will be biased when come to qualification coming from different institution. (Or maybe due to some other reasons which I dunno??Or maybe I failed the Psychometric Test so they think I am a Psycho??OMG) Anw I guess I have to keep on moving and continue to find other job offers now. I will never feel reluntant to leave my current job if there is a new opportunity for me. For my friends who knew which position I had applied, too bad my application was "stillbirth" even before meeting the interview board, so you can see the reality of life. It is never easy to climb a ladder from a "ikan bilis" to a managerial level. However, still, you have my moral support if any of you are interested to apply in future.. I will never give up hope in trying to find a new path for myself..:)

X'mas

While everyone is preparing for the holiday, I am hoping it pass by sooner. Why?Because I am working on that day. Don't wish to talk much now because one of friends told me my blog has become a complain blog. Haha..Only people in my shoe will understand..:)

MC

Finally, my last decision was to take MC..What to do, I am really sick. I was actually thinking of going to work today but I really can't because I AM SICK. However, when I told my colleague that I want to take MC, he told me that there were other colleagues on OS, MC and Leave due to special reason which I accepted and I believed the management will accept if they are HUMANE enough..However, he doesn't seem to care and in the end I had to tell him I informed our supervisor and to let him make the decision today. This makes me wonder, is there any welfare today?I am sick but machiam like I cannot take MC. I know roughly what will happen. The management may recall people back to cover the manpower etc. But again what the hell, because I want them to know also, we are human, not robots and we cannot be possibly act like we are content and healthy and continue to work. Too bad I got only one day MC..^^

Sick

It's been so long since I last fall sick. I can't remember when was the last time too. But I think this time is because of the numerous duties which I had done and by thinking of more upcoming duties makes me even more sick. Had a high fever and sore throat last night and it did not seems to be better even after I took some panadols. Yet the management do not seems to understand that they are actually torturing us everyday. Still thinking whether I should take MC tomorrow. Haiz..I am fcuking sick and tired right now..:(

Round 1

Today just went for my Psychometric Test session. Lucky I managed to find the place. It was quite simple actually except for the parking space. It the end I parked at a carpark at St John vicinity which I later found out that it was a wheel clamp area only when I was about to go home. Lucky no one wheel clamp my car..Haha..Well, the test seems to be very smoothly done but there was no interview. I was then told that I will have to wait for two working days to know whether I am shortlisted. Guess I will only have to sit back and pray hard I get through the first round. Again wish me luck friends...:)

"Happy" Holiday

To many people, Christmas is a day which they look forward to..Why?Because its end of the year and there are discounts almost everywhere we go. Plus the lightings at town. And most importantly, holiday!!BUT for me, I dread this day and maybe most of the festive season as long as it means duty for me.. I know it sucks but what to do, I have to bear with it till the day I REALLY leave this place.. Well, hopefully this will be the last year and by next year I can really enjoy holidays even if I were to stay at home "nua" I will be happy too...:)

Singapore Malls

Went to Plaza Singapura today with my wife. I can't remember exactly when was the last time I went there. But today, I went there and guess what?Same old place, nothing special. I have been asking myself why is it the shopping malls in Singapore do not come out with stuffs that attract their customers or patrons?To be frank, if I got nothing special I want to buy, I won't really want to go to shopping malls be it PS or other malls. It's just so boring just to think of going...Yawn..Guess some of the guys think the same as me right..:)

Rest

Did not really have a good rest since I last took leave for my Hong Kong trip. I did took leave for the last couple of night shifts just to recuperate myself since they offered me but always "kena" called back to work but I think it is still okay because I never really apply for it in the first place. But in the end I ended up even more tired when there were extra duties on off days. So finally today my friend got a slot and was asked(forced) to take leave and I seek his permission to let me have the slot instead and he agreed. Finally I am having a rest now and can stop thinking of work for now.

Finally!

Finally I got a good news from my application!!!Going for my first Psychometric Test session next week..Hopefully everything turns out smoothly..Been waiting for this piece of news for a long time..Wish me luck friends..:)

Rainy day

Today is a cooling day. So cooling that I cannot feel the sun today. It had been drizzling the whole day till early evening. So shiok. It has been a long time since the weather been so nice. Feel like going home the moment I stepped into work..Haha..Anw just sent my explaination to whoever during work. Now only waiting for my sentence..Who cares right?

Granny

Today I just visited my grandma. She would have been a healthy lady if someone, or the whole damn family did not do something so cruel and heartbroken to her in the first place. I still remember just 2 years ago during Chinese New Year, she was still active and able to walk, talk and laugh when her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren visited her. Today, she could not even recognise my family anymore. She looks so fragile, so weak, so restless and so thin. She had change to another person who has difficulty talking and let alone stand. She has been torturing herself unknowingly. Where is the love and care that she supposes to have for taking care of THAT family for so many decades? Does she deserve such treatment from THAT family? We had tried to take care of her ever since she was being CHASE OUT from that GOD DAMN family. But in her mind, she just want to return back to THAT cold blooded family. During this incident, I finally realise the cruelty of real life. People DO forget about the good things you had done for them in the past. They will only care for their own benefits and once you are done, you will be out of this society, for good. She is just a 95 year old lady who just wants some family love.
ps:I still miss her curry chicken which she will prepare when we went to visit her during CNY.

Slow death

I was wondering. How come a thing which was so tiny in size and almost has no value can create such a big "hoo ha" in an organisation? Something which is easily replaceable or replicate can go to such extend that makes me feel like I am the only one at fault. Eversince that "momentous" day, I have been asking myself whether did I volunteered to go for the duty on that day? And the answer is definitely NO. Did I not make everyone job easy by not asking them to do something which they won't like but maybe on the surface they might help? The answer is definitely YES. In the end, I felt like I am the only one suffering from this trauma. And why did this fcuking shit happens to me only till now?Is it God will?I think I am just plain tired of all these shit. Too tired to even think of the consequences. Who will ever understand our bitterness at work?I guess no one except the ones executing the job and not the ones who just NO ACTION TALK ONLY (NATO) personnel who just give some stupid instructions and we only have to follow quietly like a slave who is a worse than a dog. Hopefully these NATO will get a taste of their own medicine soon if they continues to be a dictator...

Fcuking Suay

Today was a damn suay day for me. This is the first time in my career I lost something which is issued by my organisation. I lost a issued CAR key. I guess it is mainly because I am fcuking tired of work and really TIRED to even realise I drop the key. Somemore today is supposed to be my precious off day! Maybe this marks the time for me to really think over should I really stay on or continue to look at other job options irregardless of economic recession. There will more mental stress coming up due to this issue....:( ps: I am already physically stress + mental stress = STRESS STRESS STRESS!!!)

Yesterday. Today.

Going to work once was an enjoyable and pleasant trip even if I have to take a 45 minutes to an hour bus journey. Because I got to know alot of interesting people and "kakis" when I just joined the workplace. We can plan for outings on our first off and sometimes even after our first shift. But now, everything had change. Almost all my "kakis" had left the workplace and posted to other departments. Each had their own work to keep themselves busy and we hardly have time for each other now. We rarely meet these days and it is like since June when we last see each other during my ROM..Hiaz..Now even with transport, I still have to drag myself to wake up and go to work every shift. Life is so fcuking boring at work now. .Hopefully I can leave this place soon..:(

Blessing in Disguise

Could it be a blessing in disguise that she is finally out of the demon cave?Yes, I certainly hope so. She had undergone uncalled remarks and comments by her stupid fatass director. To me, it is a mental torture to work under such a unreasonable and self-centered supervisor who thinks she is God herself and everyone under her is just slave who she can order around. To me, the director is just a bloody idiotic piece of god damn pile of shit with houseflies and STILL thinks highly of herself. Anyway, I will just sit back and laugh at the pile of shit who got no bloody life and just hope her turn will be next..:)

Creepy

Have you ever been "pressed" by something which you can't see?Or when you felt you were being "pressed", is it because you are fcuking tired?This is my second time being "pressed". Let me elaborate what I meant by "pressed" based on my experience. It felt like something is in control of me and I can't move although I am awake. I have difficulty opening my both eyes. I CAN'T speak although I am already awake. Yes, I mean CAN'T. I am in no control of myself. Eventually, I have to force myself out of "it" for a few minutes before I could really move my body and lips. Both incidents happened at two different renown hotels, in Singapore. Till now, I have no idea why this happens to me only when I am in hotel doing duty. The first incident which happened last year (I think) during wee hours, I remembered seeing something infront of me which is about 50 metres away and the second incident which happened this morning in the wee hours, both me and my partner got the same experience and he even informed me he dreamt of two little girls at the hotel corridor where we are stationed! But just to reveal, I was dozing off before I felt being "pressed" after I woke up, so who knows, most probably I was just plain tired..haha..^@^.. Or could it be the two little girls "playing" with us?

Those were the days

I have always thought how nice it was to go back into time. Reliving the days when I was in primary school and secondary school. I think those were the days when my life was really free of anything, except for examinations, of cos. But again, there was only mid year and end year to worry about when the examinations were near. The rest of the days were just freedom. I loved going to primary school because the first thing my classmates and I will do was to play soccer. During that time, it is a trend to play a soccer ball made of plastic, yes, plastic. I doubt there is now, even if so, it is so rare. We will normally teased the girls in our class and I remember whacking up one of our classmates in my class during my secondary school days together with other classmates because of his arrogant. We also put liquid paper into his schoolbag which resulted his mother came complaining to our form teacher. Haiz..crybaby..Those were the days..:)

Hong Kong

These are only some of the photos which my wife and I had taken during our Hong Kong and Shenzhen trip from 05/11/08 to 09/11/08. I dun think I can upload every single picture because it seem like jumble up the sequence after some picture. Anyway I just want to elaborate that Hong Kong night scene is beautiful. Just before we left the country, the whole country was just like air condition everywhere we go..Guess we went there a few days early..But it was a nice trip and I was rejuvenated after the trip.

Win, Lose, Draw

Is it people today are becoming more and more unreasonable or they think they are fcuking educated and THOUGHT they know many things? Why can't people just sit down and listen but instead behave so stubborn and want to act like a clown. To me, in their heart, they just want to win. Is winning really that important that people failed to listen? So what if they win, will they really feel the REAL victory or is it just hallucination that blur their mind? Whatever the case is I have seen enough of these people and my only mindset is to complete my job and go home to my family at the end of the day, feeling happy and maybe at the same time laugh at those clowns whom I met during the day, and maybe, just maybe, bless them, hoping that they find a WAY for themselves soon.:)

Comparision

Between a Hong Kong serial show and a Singapore one, which one will you choose?I will choose HK ones..Between a Taiwan serial show and Singapore one, which one will you choose?I will choose mostly Taiwan ones depending on the casts. It has been a long time since I really watch a Singapore serial show. Why didn't I choose to watch Singapore serial show now?Because all I can said is everything is predictable and routine and the casts are either the same or getting worse..And partly because I subscribe to SCV, hence, I managed to compare those shows which I had watched before. What can I say..Hopefully they can buck up and keep up with other Asian countries standard of making TV serials. Do I need to say more?

Bravia

This is my Sony Bravia 40' W series LCD TV. Though it is of the older version, but it was manufactured in Japan in Jan 2008. Hence, I did not regret buying it. Instead, I am still happy and a proud owner of it. Usually I only use it to watch DVD and it is so fcuking clear especially if I watch it at night..Combine with home threatre system is a combo!I have been renting DVDs these few months already. What to do, economic bad, have to save money for rainy days so have to cut down going to cinema.

Initially, I went to Courts tamp somewhere in June wanted to get a budget LCD TV and spotted Samsung brand, but the salesman told me that I could get Sony Bravia instead because of the higher definition. The main twist of me getting the Sony Bravia instead is that it was made in Japan. Who doesn't like stuff made in Japan?haha..So the deal was done and it's a win-win situation..:)

Tired

To be frank, I am quite tired of my current job but I guess who doesn't..Everyone is "You see me good, I see you good" attitude..But really, I really do need to find an excuse to a new environment. I can't imagine myself holding on to my post in another 5 years time..I think I will go crazy by then..But the economic is so fcuking bad now that everyone is holding on to their rice bowl..So I'm considered lucky that I still have a job to do and a regular income..Hopefully I can find a new and interesting job in the near future and with better income too, if possible.:)

Miracle!!

It's a miracle that my old blog was revived by itself. I have not been using this blog for donkey years and I thought it was gone becuase I simply forgotten about it. But somehow, when I was trying to create another blog using the same old email I have, I managed to see the old blog title again. Maybe I should continue to use this instead of the new one. :)
