100th post

just being very lame to the max.
have a nice day people (whoever reads this) :)

busy morning

been very busy making calls this morning. none of them are work related though ;)
first call is to terminate a redundant insurance. next to check if the loan company has received the final loan installment. need the money from the savings of that loan account to pay income tax (yes i have to pay income tax even though i'm working in the government sector *sheesh*)
next call to make is for an appointment during lunchtime. then i'm done with phonecalls.
never liked to talk over the phone that much. it takes up to much time and effort. i don't mind the occasional calls just to keep in touch and ask about the general well being of each other. other than that i prefer to send messages. i pay more for my messages than making/receiving calls.
going to send some e-mails now. have a nice mid-week to all!!

coming back

father dearest is coming home today.
after almost a month of peace for mother dearest.
no more blissful sleep for her.

a little better now

things don't look so bleak now. settled some issues that has been weighing me down.
one more issue and really hope that will turn out as i want it to.
*praying hard*

what did i get into?

ok, so i thought things are picking up. seems like it's going to be another long year ahead.
don't want to talk about it and please don't ask. there's nothing anyone can help in this.
you got to do what you got to do...

how low can you go?

another depressing day.
can it get any lower than this?
let's see...

something i really swear by

the best brand i've tried so far :

helps when i need to do the late night studying/mugging :

complemented by this the morning after :

finally, something i was sceptical to use at first but it really works!! :

didn't expect oil to fight oily skin but it's tried and tested. my acne's mostly gone except for the stubborn few. what to do. can't control the sweet tooth...

not funny

over msn last tuesday, sis dearest informed that father couldn't take the cold weather and has decided to return home. this news took me and mother completely off-guard and, as usual, mother started panicking.
mother almost had a nervous breakdown. turned out it was just a joke. it was so not funny ok. we were worried sick over here thinking that father was not well. another announcement like this, we won't believe it, even if it turns out to be true. remember the boy who called wolf?
taking the afternoon off today. going for a little pampering session and to have my baby checked out. can't to a software restore. the file just won't run. spent the whole week with some colleagues trying to do it. did the necessary backing-up. all movies, songs & pictures have been saved.
going to enjoy this weekend. will be the last free weekend. classes starts next week. have to go for a class on saturdays. really don't favour classes on a weekend but what to do.

no motivation

i've lost most, if not all, motivation to work now. waking up brings dread to the heart.
i still love the line i'm in but the work environment is making me feel really unmotivated. the unbreakable habit of procrastination is not helping at all either. i'm really not looking forward to going to work anymore. especially wednesdays. how unmotivated? don't mind getting reminded of the same old thing over and over again.
i think i was doing proper project work (even if it's filing & administrative issues) before the boss did a re-shuffling. now job of the day is done within 2 - 3 hours only. after that i have to find other ECAs.
being picked as the chairman of the welfare team also doesn't help at all. all thanks to the dangers of miscommunication. having very unresponsive team members is another minus point. can't even delegate the work. everyone seems to have mastered the art of 'siam'-ing. have to learn from them. can't master that art yet. hmph!!
it's already more than half a year gone. how fast time flies. haven't had that proper break yet. need a change of environment. not forever, just for a short while only. i still want to work with this team, but a short break is seriously needed first.
