Weekend's over?! So fast?!
"What time?"
"Blogging time!"
Haha! It's monday again, what happened to the weekend that swoshed by?!
Super tired & sleepy today...Like gf said...Maybe no job fit that's why la...everyday so tired...Kinda ridiculous...Haha!
Haha! I've been like the talk of office ever since I'm back... But I'm fine la... Understand that people are worried and are curious about it...
Some act like experts on the subject matter, sharing their knowledge on how to identify the germs are in them, others are super duper jumpy...
Some that have been diagnosed with the germs and put in medication a down, others take things as they come...
Sometimes things just don't turn out as expected...There have been four in my office that have been disgnosed with the germs and put on medication so far...
However, these four are those who I don't really talk to, don't work together, and just happen to sit in the same office... And they don't even sit anywhere near!
*amazed* haha! maybe TB germs fly...Keke!
And this other lady even mentioned that she'll not go for the test, cos it makes no sense...Even if you're tested negative now, you may get it anytime, cos it's not an antibody...plus, what's the point of going there to allow them (TB unit) to inject TB germs in your body?! Haha! I get her point la...It's up to her, I guess... :)
Well, people talk about it so openly that last week, I had a colleague who asked me openly & loudly "Hey, Angie, you stress or not? Everyone talking about you leh!"
Haha! What can I say...Honestly, I really don't feel weird or what not la...Just that sometimes I don't know what's the best expression to give...
Eg. this guy is diagnosed with TB germs, and is put on medication...And he's so upset about it...So so so upset! And the thing is I dunno him well and don't even talk to him...And so, I haven nothing to talk to him about, nothing to tell him...So I act blur lor... *faint*
Besides all these (which are not that bad), everything's alrite, I guess...
Weekend's tiring & I din manage to get enough rest...
And somethings that I really wanna start doing...
I want to really start taking in Malay vocabs...I have to start somewhere...
& I need some exercise...It's a NEED...

My life...My next few years...
Haha! She talks about 'what you see yourself in 2, 5, 10 yrs time', about being a workaholic...etc...
Haha! These are the few things that caught me la...
For me, these two issues are related...Why? Cos I really think I can be a workaholic, but that really depends on what the work is about...
My current job? Well, it just doesnt give me enough satisfaction to be a workaholic...I really dont feel for it...
Haha! Oh well, the money is pretty good...I cant complain, can I?
But just sharing from my heart, it' really does not give me any incentive (besides money) to over work...I dont feel good working more, and most of all, I dun feel for it!
Erm, so what if we pay all the suppliers on time? So what if all the invoices are in place?
I know the basics of how a company works...I understand that I'm playing a small part in a big production...Without the Accounts dept, the company will have a hard time functioning...I know...I know...But I just don't feel for it (I'm sure you know what I mean)...
I guess even if I were doing Accounts in an organization I feel for (maybe like a VWO whom cause I advocate for), I'm pretty sure I won't enjoy it...
But probably one consolation that I have is that at least this company I'm working with is doing something meaningful...At least we're producing really useful & meaning things...
Was talking to a very-logical-friend the other day, 'Of cos you sould just stay and cont'd working there la! They pay not bad, benefits good, near your home! Good enough la! Don't work those no money, no future jobs la!' *faint* but I knpw what to expect him to say la...Keke!
I can't deny that he's got a good point there...But I guess he's right for now...I really NEED the cash...
But I know this is really not what I wanna do...I want to walk out of this...and into something I feel for...something I advocate for...
Sometimes I wonder if i can survive without savings, with no money, with just what I have on my back...So I can put my everything down for those in need...
Hai...Sometimes I wonder it's because we're in Singapore that's why we can't do that...I know it's not...It's pride...
The tough part is to put down my pride then to serve wholeheartedly...
Anyway, it's another wonderful and pretty FRIDAY in our lives! Embrace it! :)
Mid-week!
It's another sleepy day at work today...
But gf is right...every work day is sleepy for me...I seriously think it's because of the work la...my kind of work is the sit-down-and-work kind....stare at computer, look busy is part of the job...Haha! But today's worse! Woke up in the morning, eyes cant open fully..Once I arrive office I have to find a place to shut my eyes...Think I have to continue to do that every hour for today! =(
And gf's not in office today...No email chat today...
Anyway, think I should just blog a little today lest my gf says 'your blog also natural death ah? *giggle*'...Keke!
I always try to my mind busy while riding cos if not, I'll get bored...
Most of the time left with nothing in particular to think about, I start pondering what I should/can blog about! Haha! Many times the thought just ended there.
After I got to my destination, the thought dissolved and probably got blown somewhere...Keke!
Gf just came back from china (heehee! a lonely trip to china...), though it wasnt a fun trip (and in truth it's a trip, i guess, that she doesnt want to embark on ever again!), when she came back, she still somehow wished she wasnt back...why? cos once she's back, work flocked to her mind...it became stressful once she landed...
Heehee! I can understand that, though it doesnt apply to be as of now...
I read somewhere
"I learnt something very important. Escape through travel works. Almost from the moment I boarded my flight, life back home became meaningless. Seat belt signs lit up, problems switched off. Broken armrests took precedence over broken hearts. By the time the plane was airborne I'd forgotten England even existed...." (the guy's probably from England)
And I think it's really really true...
Call me coward, but sometimes it's really true...Of cos sometimes it's not...Some said "The world is round, wherever you go, problems follow right behind you."
I've heard from a friend about a friend who escaped from Spore all the way to Oz to run away from some problems...When she got there, she realized that the world is indeed round...She finally decided to face her problems there.
Heehee!

it's been a long time... =)
Anyway, I've thought of many things to blog about actually, ever since I was hospitalized...But everytime when I sat down in front of the computer, I don't know where to start...HEehee! That explains why...
Alrite, think I should blog about my very first hospital stay...I started coughing blood, that's what got me to the doc then to the A&E then to the hospital...Haha! Yeah, it's a bit like how it's like on tv...Someone holds a hankie to the mouth when coughing then suddenly you see blood and ponders what could it be...keke!
Hospital stay wasnt that bad...besides that fact that for the first two days I had this needle stuck into me...Keke! But besides that and the lousy food, it not really that bad...But sometimes instead of getting more rest, somemore you get more tired than usual...Probably from the lack of moving, lethargy develops?
But nice people visit me and make things more fun, talking to me, kill some time...Hehe! One unexpected visitor, and few other expected ones...But still, it was a pretty nice experience (i know it's weird putting it this way...but it's really like this! =P)... =)
Anyway, finally back to work after three weeks of rest! But still sleepy...Cos I din sleep well last night...Probably thinking (unconsciously) about how my colleagues are going to react to me after three weeks of disappearance...Keke! Oh well, as of now, I'd say everyone has been great! Think it's hugely because of the way this co. handled the situation. They make it easy for the staff as well as myself. Well, i'm just lucky, i guess! :)
So well, it's back to work for me now...
Work's pretty much the same la...stapler stapler, chop chop chop! Haha!
But this two weeks going to be little busy with the book launch at the back of my head...Will need to work on it...The final mile...
Our baby's finally coming out...after a year...Haha!
That's for now!
