OMG. I’m at work and I’m tryping on my blog!!!!! OMG!!!

This shows that it has finally slowed down a lil… Or actually, it’s coz both my bosses are out for lunch at 2.23pm and hopefully they dun return soon. I’m left with another 4 more hours before official off time (hopefully can go back dot dot today) and i’m feeling much less busy today. Woohoo!!!!!

Had a headache during the weekend with on of my Shell projects. Shucks. The stupid uniforms don’t fit a lot of my guys and it was soo bad for one of them that i think if he had to wear it any longer, he’ll turn into a G-String Model!!! hahaha… but thankfully got this all almost sorted out and am waiting for the uniforms to safely arrive at the Shell station. Am just waiting for my phone to ring and the good news to come in the sms form.

Office feels so quiet without the two bosses above us. it seems really really peaceful. mwahahaha.. not tat i’m complaining.. i mean my bosses are GREAT! they’re so nice when they’re nice but it’s like the nursery rhyme about the girl with the curl in the middle of her forehead. When they’re nice, they make you feel sooo nice and make you feel soooo appreciated. But once my boss gets into his crazy mood (which is quite often nowadays, i must say), all hell breaks loose!!! I know i can be a doo doo bird at times, but sometimes, he says something, then the next moment, it is as if he has a short term memory! He then proceeds to insist on something else which is the total opposite of wat was said at the first place! Grrr… Are all bosses like that?!?!?!?!

Argh. Wah, the office so quiet (i know i’m saying that so much!) and it’s sooo quiet that i’m feeling so cold coz there’s not enough human warmth. How i wish everyday was this way, even if it means i’ll freeze to death (either that or i’ll just kill the aircon)

I miss being so carefree in school! I’m so envious of Ron now that he has started school again! URGH. i wanna go back to school, where i can try and skip classes just to hang around and be lazy.. where, eventhough there are projects and exams, it’s sooo fun to be cramping all in and rushing for deadlines. Now, rushign for deadlines means that I’m almost really dead. URGH.

Ok, enough bitching about the bosses who sometimes do care about us. The relationship between my bosses and my colleagues and me are sometimes like the abused wife scenario. The husband abuses the wife so badly, but in the end, he makes up to her buy buying her roses. Metaphorically lah. My boss doesn’t buy me roses lah.

I hope this doesn’t break any legal rules. After all, i’m not really really bitching about my bosses. I’m just lamenting about work life. hehehe.. Work life does get to you. I WANNA GO BACK TO MILANO!!!!

A time to breath…

Friday, March 24th, 2006

Whew… Finally some time for me to breath! Looking at my last post, it was in January! OMG.. and we’re nearing the end of March!!! Realised how long it’s been since I had any hints of life after work.

Been struggling to keep afloat as I prepared for the huge ass event thrown by Shell. At least now the launch event’s over and what’s left is the Men In Red Appearances in each Shell station. Speaking of which, I’m so happy to have gotten my 8 wonderful men in red. hehehe.. They’re a cute buncha guys who try to have fun at what they do. Great spirit! Shall miss them once the whole thing’s over.

Went to MOS last week (yeap, actually got to go somewhere after work these few months). It was not as wow as i expected it to be. I guess they gave it too much hype but it didn’t really work for me. Or maybe it was coz it was a Wed night and there weren’t too many ppl? It remains to be seen. Will prob give it one more shot before shooting it down.

Was also busy preparing for Meng Li’s surprise bachellorette gathering. Was sooo nice when it all fell together. Heh. Love giving surprises. Loved even more gathering with my old convent frens. Meng Li, Mei Sun, Chin Chin, Florence and Pauline were there. Really fun and we laughed soooo hard that i lost my voice the next day!!!!

I guess all wasn’t lost these few months. Just when i feel sooo demoralized, i have my dear colleagues to talk to since we’re all in the same boat. I guess that’s the way work life is. Sigh.. but i still love my job lah. Love every minute of planning and executing the events. Love anticipating all the challenges that is thrown on my path.

Ok. Time for me to slump. Dun wanna spend my first official ‘freer’ day staring at the comp coz i’ll be doing it all over again on Mon.

Will write soon. So much to write, so lil inspiration to do so coz I feel soooo lazy…
