Of Work and Annoying People









So you should at least have a rough idea on what I'm gonna talk about. It's pretty obvious no? Anyhoo work was alright but I was bored. Well, as usual. Haha.


Photobucket
Please excuse the bad skin. I don't put make up to work, I just draw my eyebrows.


Anyway there's no one to please at the office so why bother. And not like I need to please anyone. Oh wells. I finished doing roughly an inch of commercial activities data. There are no projects this month so I'm picking up random work here and there so that I can pass time.


It's so painful to just sit there and do nothing.


Photobucket
The mess on my table.


Work was damn funny today. I was laughing till I had a bloody stomachache. T_T My manager was teaching me yoga poses -_- That was how bored we were.


Time passed really, really quickly and Georgia has left for Singapore again. Sighs. But we did get to spend quality time together. (:


I stayed with her at her hotel on Friday night after our clubbing session. And gosh it has indeed been ages since I last danced like how I did on that Friday night. I guess Georgia danced too much too. Both of us were complaining that our back and neck were aching.


That woman suggested that we should warm up next time. Stretch and whatnot. -_-


I guess I'm old. Har har har.


Anyway. Back to my topic. Annoying people. On the train.


I normally take the monorail to Hang Tuah station and switch to the Star LRT to get back to the nearest station near my place. You know in the trains, they have these poles in the center so that you can hold on to? So yeah I got into the train and then I walked to the pole thingie. And there was this fat meaty lady LEANING on the pole. So I nicely said "Excuse me I wanna hold on onto it."


You'd expect her to like, move away, right? But NO SHE DIDN'T. She just glared at me and continued leaning on it. At one point the train sort of braked and her body was like, resting on my hand instead!


"Excuse me miss. Your lipids are like squeezing my poor anorexic fingers."


No of course I didn't say that but I wish I did! Just imagining the look on her face itself is so funny. Well, what if I can really say that!


Anyway she didn't even apologize. She just acted as if nothing has happened. So fine! Whatever. I was in a good mood anyway. Then.. She turned around, and HUGGED the freaking pole as if it's the love of her life or something like that! And pushed my hand away. What the fuck.


Like hello! You only get to hug a freaking pole if you're drunk like me okay?


Photobucket
Nah. I wasn't drunk. (: Just random funny pictures that I like.


Anyhoo I walked off and held on to another pole. That freaking woman. Gosh I don't get how inconsiderate people can be nowadays! Last week the same thing happened, but it was a guy. And you'd think a guy would be gentleman enough. Meh!


On another day, a woman on the monorail (Let's call her Sour cuz her face looked really sour wtf) almost fell cuz she lost her balance while the train was moving. Then a nice lady held her to prevent her from falling. And guess what did Sour do? She frowned and "Tsk!" at the nice lady! Gosh not even a thank you!


People really need to learn manners.


I'm not being racist but today, on the monorail, some Indians were like pushing so hard to get out of the monorail! They were pushing so freaking hard this old lady almost fell down. Like gosh, if you miss your stop, just get down at the next stop and take the train at the opposite side. I really don't get these people! -_-


Anyhoo. I just got back after being dragged out of my comfort zone. Kanasai Lai Kian Chong what 12 am Cinderella rule is that huh huh huh. I'm dead tired.


I have two blog posts due. One is about the Ammonia-Urea Symposium that I worked for and one more the clubbing night with G. And oh, I'll put in my birthday wishlist soon hahahaha! Night!


(Lauren you're also the cause of me sleeping late cuz you didn't allow KC to go home.)

Meh.









I think I don't know what to feel anymore. So numb.


I guess it's right then. Oh wells.


It amazes me somehow, how trivial some matters can be but yet they make such a big impact on how people will react. I guess it's the difference in the degree of sensitivity of different individuals.


And I've learned, over and over again, that kindness and helpfulness can be exploited by other people. (I'm just feeling off at the moment I'm not pointing fingers at anyone.)


Honestly, I don't know what the point of me blogging about this but I really don't know what to say and I'm bad with words to describe how I'm feeling. If there's any word(s) to describe how I'm feeling, it probably would be "jumbled up".


I don't feel like typing right now, maybe I'll do it over the weekend.


That aside! Georgia's coming today! (:

Good Morning World









Well, since I'm early today I shall blog and keep this blog alive. Have been blogging inconsistently as compared to my early days in blogging. I would seriously update my blog daily with the usual "I got up I brush my teeth" nonsense. Maybe I should do that now, well, just to keep this blog alive.


Anyhoo I got my results. I was pretty disappointed cuz I didn't do so well for my second semester which resulted in pulling down my overall grade. Pffft. But the good news is that, I'm one mark away from first class. So all I need to do is work hard for the next two years. Sighs.


Partially it is my fault as well. Been involved in too many things at uni. But then again I guess being involved in things and then still managing this kind of score, is erm, not bad right? Sighs. I want my first class kanasai if not for that Environmental Protection I would have done well. I knew I wouldn't do well in subjects that require me to memorize and then regurgitate. Bah. Maybe should have put in another 10% haha.


Plant design came as a shock I thought I did pretty well in that paper. Well, the paper isn't exactly hard but it isn't exactly easy but I expected better. I noticed this, if I'm gonna do badly in a paper, it will be REALLY bad. But if I do well, it'll be REALLY well. And hence, my average score. Ugh.


And apparently many would kill to have my marks. Like hello????? Trust me those marks are not what you want.


Okay enough about uni related things.


Work has been alright. Don't really have much to do so all I do is sit at my desk going on MSN and reading articles and journals and gosh I feel like I'm the queen of oil&gas cuz I'm like the oil&gas version of CNN. And if you ever see me online, don't hesitate to message me okay? Even if I put the status as busy cuz the fact is, I'm not haha.


Apparently the trend in my company is that, after working here, everyone puts on weight. O_o


I was complaining to TheBoyfriend yesterday that I'm gonna start working out cuz I don't wanna put on weight. So funny isn't it? I want to put on weight but I actually don't want to? I just wanna tone up. Arms, enough. They're naturally muscular I don't know why.


Anyway before I started working I thought this company is like so small and stuff. My friend who is working in stock market business was like, "Is it listed? Never heard before so I'm sure it's not listed."


What's with people these days? Listed la not listed la I say sh*t f*ck c*bai. As I'm growing up, I realized that things around me change so much. Even the people around me. All they want is status, status, status. I don't deny that I don't want that. But then it gets annoying after a while. I don't know how to put this in a good way as I'm not exactly good with words.


So what if I'm in a company that isn't listed? Does it make a big deal? I'm just an intern and I'm doing what I want to do which is good enough. (Okay I don't exactly want to read articles and journals but I don't mind) And this very same person pissed me off so much at one time cuz my parents are like, buying shares and all through him. When he started, he kept telling me to introduce him to my family/relatives and tell them if they wanna buy shares and all, go through him. When I did, he said, "Aiya. Not very big also. I won't get much." As in, my family/relatives are not big time share players who buys a lot.


-________________________-


I was so mad at that point I said, "Sorry la. My family isn't exactly rich."


Hello? It isn't my fault okay? I did you a favour and that was how you had to reply me? Thanks a lot I feel so appreciated.


I digressed.


That wasn't what I intended to say but it came out anyway. Haha I have all these negative pent up energy. Anyway after working here for more than a week, I realized that my company is pretty big, maybe not in the local scene but in other countries, we're pretty well known. And it's quite a big organization.


My Italian boss wants me to come back after two years and he said he'll send me to Milan to work with this Italian engineer (whom I've met) who is super good and super tall too like maybe 2m damn fucking tall okay I'm not kidding. My neck ached when I talked to him I had to look up. -_- I was at the symposium and his technical skills are really to die for.


Anyway. Something funny. During the conference/symposium, I was sitting at the front row cuz I was like so eager and shit. I was nodding off cuz I was so sleepy. Then the photographer took a photo of me falling asleep. Yesterday we got the photos, and it was shown to my Italian boss. You know what happened? He laughed like shit. Then he said, "I'm going to put this in the Milan magazine."


-___________________________-


"And I'll send this picture to your lecturer.."


Then he started laughing again. T_T Why is my boss like that? Then he picked a group picture where everyone looked like shit and he looked good. He said, "If you bribe me I might ask someone to do a little tweak in your face."


And he send the group picture of him and the others from Milan and said, "It isn't your mothers' fault if you're ugly. But anyway I'll accept bribes for better picture. Ciao."


Yes people. That's my boss.


Alright I'm gonna get going now. Ciao. (Been saying ciao too much cuz of these Italian people. No one says goodbye. Ciao ciao ciao lan jiao. -_- Sorry I couldn't help it.)

Ola!






From my office.


Yeps I've started working. In fact, I started on Monday and then I was involved in this ammonia-urea project thingie thingie (My Italian boss likes to say this. Thingie thingie.) and it was indeed an eye opener. (:


They had the conference on Tuesday and after that I have nothing to do. Like now, oh gosh you seriously have no idea how bored shitless I am. I'm doing some marketing database at the moment and these are just quote my supervisor, "So that you at least can do something but these are not relevant."


T_T


Anyway this is so fun, NOT. I've been reading journals and news about oil and oil and oil. Like which station caught fire so oil refinery/drilling are paused for a day. They evacuated this and that. Then Saudi Arab wants to increase their production by 200000 barrels per day. Then dunno which Sultan is unhappy about the price.


And people. Just to clear things. Just because I'm working in an oil and gas company, it does not mean that I can get free petrol. Stop thinking like that can you? The next time someone asks me that I'm just gonna ignore you. Sorry I'm PMS-ing I'm sensitive now I get agitated easily.


Sighs my period is late by 2 weeks I'm worried. Is there anything wrong with me? The latest delay I've had was 1 week. Now it's 2 weeks. Sighs. But I'm PMS-ing, so.. Maybe next week? I cannot afford to have my period now ok? I'm wearing a white skirt.


Oh gosh I think it's gonna rain.. Sighs.


I like the place where I'm working at. It's stress free and the people here are so nice. I feel like I've worked here for 10 years haha. My immediate supervisor is really nice. I'm supposed to report to the engineer in this company but then I have nothing to do so I have nothing to report.
My Italian boss is very cute. As in attitude kind of cute not the looks kind. He's like a big small boy if you get what I mean. The way he talks haha. He makes stupid faces at people. -_- He isn't like, "I'm your boss so you must be serious with me."


So nice.


Did I mention my office is opposite Rum Jungle, Aloha, Poppy? A building opposite that stretch of clubs. My lecturer said, "Good good. Can relax and unwind after work everyday."


Now I know how hard my dad and TheBoyfriend have to work to support me haha.
(And baby, it's Gucci, not Coach, you're dead.)


I have a hard time looking for clothes to wear to office cuz most of them are not really, erm, suitable. A little too skimpy for office wear. Need to go shopping. *Puppy eyes at TheBoyfriend* But then again, after work I won't wear already and who know I might work in the plant instead next time.


Random quote from friend, "Your job/work is your responsibility."


So yeah I'm doing my work, which is almost non-existent at the moment. I laughed at my friends who started their internships earlier than me. I laughed at them for having no life cuz they sleep damn early. Now it's happening to me. T_T


I sleep around 11.30pm to 12am. And yesterday TheBoyfriend halau-ed me to bed. Say I need to work. Aihs and say since I'm in oil and gas he doesn't have to work cuz I can sara him. He can stay at home. -_- I miss uni days. My first year. Can see him everyday without fail cuz both of us are so free. Ever since he started working I only see him during the weekend. What to do, he's earning now haha so must take care of his interest if not I won't get what I want. -_-


But anyway since I'm working office hours and SITTING in an office now, I understand how he feels after work cuz I'm feeling the same! He said he wants to come over to my place last night and I said no. Normally I'd be happy but last night I just want to rest and eat Chipster.


I'm in this tomyam and laksa phase. Everyday I crave for either one. But you know what I really crave for at this moment? Salmon. Raw. Unlimited raw salmon. T_T And I've put on 1 kg. So I'm 42 kgs now yay! Eat more eat more.


What else? Oh I feel like eating KFC too. And and and Chili's.


ROARRRR sitting here makes me think of food. Meh. I can't wait for Krabi.


A conversation with TheBoyfriend:

"What do you want to eat on Friday?"
"I'm craving for salmon...."
"Er but KLCC don't have wor.."
"Got.. Sushi King and Genki Sushi.. But not nice one.."
"Er we find something else."
(Somehow we talked about him wanting to save money)
"Aihs since you wanna save money we don't watch movie. We download and watch and then we go mamak for dinner. I don't want salmon. Ikan kembong can already."
"Hahahahaha! Ikan kembong more than RM1 leh.."
"Fine lor. Roti canai.. But I want egg. Don't deprive me of egg ah. I sacrifice so much eat roti canai and if you don't let me order roti telur I will be very sad.."
"Hahahahaha ok ok."
"Eh no lor I think eat biscuit and drink milo at home ok. Can save more. Then download movie.."
"(Dunno what to say cuz he's busy laughing)"
"Aihhh from salmon downgrade me to ikan kembong then downgrade again to mamak food. Then downgrade to biscuit and milo.. T_T"


Damn lame. But Saw Jun-Yu I don't want to eat roti telur I die die also want salmon HAH!


Okla back to reading. Ciao.

Just Cuz We Like It










Went out drinking on Wednesday night with some friends. They named this event - Buddies Night Part 3. I wasn't there for the first two sessions. We went to Rainforest Sports Bar at Pavilion.


Photobucket


Teik Sheng came late and we gave him a new nickname! (: According to Kah Chun, for every 15 minutes that you're late, you have to drink a glass of beer. (Hey I'd come late every time there's an outing like that ok!)


Photobucket
My buddy buddy.


Photobucket


Life's so miserable. I can't have peace. All they want is, "Ah Boo! Drink drink!"


Then we try to cheat a little here and there.


Photobucket


Joon Jiun's protecting his glass cuz I think I was adding beer to Kah Chun's glass and Joon Jiun didn't want more. -_-


Photobucket
Picture taken after KC spilled precious beer on my hands! Sighs.


Photobucket
This picture is quite funny. From left, TheAssassin, The"Huh"Face, TheBlurAndStoneFace, TypicalAsianPose and HappyFace.


Photobucket
Group picture with our waitress! Whose name is Cho Lay!


See see I can remember her name! Means I'm not drunk hoho.


Photobucket
Well. Just because I like being in front of the camera heehee.


Photobucket
Zi Hao and Joon Jiun.


Photobucket


Photobucket
Roflmao look at Kah Chun's face!


Photobucket
Hmm I don't know what's going on here.


Photobucket
Group picture with a erm. Never mind.


Photobucket


I tell you. The guys were always in the way when we try to take a picture. Sighs.


Photobucket


Photobucket
The three Elaine's. (:


After camwhoring in the bar, we went to the open air area in Pavilion and took more photos. I didn't have my camera so these are all from facebook.


Photobucket
KC and his sexy ass, which is about to be punctured by a key in Yi Ling's hand.


Photobucket
I put this picture cuz I look like I have skinny legs! (((((:


Photobucket
Yep. Cuz I like being in the limelight. Look at Ronny! He's so unhappy haha.


Photobucket


Photobucket


Photobucket
Sad cuz the night ended so early.


Photobucket
The RM10 transaction -_-


I think after Redang, this is the night where I really drank a lot. And it's all beer. Haha.


Anyway, I'm starting work tomorrow! And yes I got the job. So yeah, say hi to office work. Boohoo. Work like a dog, paid shit. But then again, can't complain much right? Say hi to early mornings and subsequently, say bye to parties and late nights.

Future







Have you ever felt like you want something so badly? I guess this is one of it.


Oil and gas industry.


I may have blown my chances at becoming a life saving doctor (Hey! I'm quite kind-hearted alright?) but then again I can still be a doctor. Well, by taking PhD. But anyway I'm super excited now like, oh gee oh gee I'm gonna work in the oil and gas industry. I won't be out in the sea drilling of course, I'll just be in the office but that itself is enough to make me excited.


Ok I should calm down. What if I don't get that job? But just imagine the knowledge and experience. Ah, I'm a glutton in that way too! Just feed me.


I've been feeling so restless at home. I can't possibly go out everyday cuz my purse will murder me. And it also doesn't help that the petrol price is hiked up. -_- Say hello to buses and trains. Huhu and get grabbed in overly packed buses and trains.


Anyway people, what's the point of joining that facebook group for that what 'sick of petrol price increase' or something like that? Honestly people, what can that facebook group thing do? Yes 78 cents is like a lot but then again, our petrol is the cheapest one around. So, instead of joining the facebook group, why not do something productive? Like, maybe look for the shortest route and then let me know wuahahahaha. d:


The government should really improve on public transport. Then at least people won't really feel the pinch of the petrol price. Add more trams and make them more frequent or whatever. I've never taken the bus but then I heard it's bad. Like back in Singapore, I didn't mind taking public transports cuz they're like so convenient. But here? I really don't know. You tell me.


Anyway speaking of Singapore, I'm not sure if my trip's gonna happen now cuz if I get this job I won't be going to Singapore. Sighs.


Oh oh I was filing my notes and all the other day. As in, put them into collected files shit like that.


Photobucket


I can never find it in me to throw away old notes. I'm always worried like, "What if I need it?"


Photobucket


I even have files for lab reports. Sighs how kiasu am I to keep the lab reports. But they might come in handy.


Anyhoo, I'm going off to eat first. Will try to update ok d: Love.

Cuz I have awesome friend (Kah Chun) who will call you at 8 pm asking me to go clubbing. Damn last minute. Tsk. But since I'm like so bored I said ok. Like hello??? It's summer break!


Photobucket


Kah Chun picked me up first. Then Winnie. We were the earliest there waiting for Teik Sheng and the others to arrive.


Photobucket


Got this bottle which was seriously very, very mild. I feel nothing from drinking. I think my alcohol tolerance level is going up yays!


Managed to force KC and Ronny to join us. Was like, "Oi if you don't join us you both owe me a meal at Jogoya each! And no coursework help hoho.."


I'm mean. And I scheme a lot haha tell me about it.


Photobucket


We each had a shot of the drink first.


Oh oh my birthday's coming soon, like in a month. Anyone buy me a bottle of Grey Goose Vodka? I've heard so much about it. Lol. And and and I'll get drunk? I bet many people would just love to see that. Like, puke and all and start talking gibberish and get damn high -_-


Photobucket


Teik Sheng came probably 30 minutes later.


Photobucket


Photobucket


Photobucket


I hated pictures that night. I looked like shit that night. Like all the pictures were pretty horrible. Sighs. So I resorted to making ugly faces so that I have an excuse to look ugly.


Photobucket


Then Kah Chun saw that there's a teeny weeny bit of alcohol left in the bottle. And I..


Photobucket


Just gulped them down hohoho and really, I'm not an alcoholic. Will anyone just believe me. -_-


But really la it was just a few drops and I just wanted to layan everyone ok?


Photobucket


Photobucket


Photobucket


Sighs why am I so narcissistic.


Photobucket
Ronny hahaha damn layan!


Photobucket


Sighs the others went clubbing tonight and texted me only at 9 pm like hello! Text me earlier can? JOEY!


Anyway my time is still pretty screwed it hasn't improved since the exams. I still sleep at 5-6 am and get up in the afternoon sighs.


Oh oh on a random note you all must go on Youtube and search for 'Sungha Jung' okay? Freaking awesome! He just made me pick up my guitar again. And he can stretch his fingers damn far!


This blog needs to be updated more often haha I'll try okay.


Now. Bedtime. Yawns.
