Day Eighty-One in Captivity…

This is another back-dated post. I sincerely apologize to those who are addicted to reading my WEBSITE posts. And yes even if you refuse to admit to that statement.. you are still reading this.. so too bad :D. there are more people reading my website than I expected. O well..

Well.. I have no inspirations to write posts ( i am an eccentric writer! haha you wish).. It’s a “a-lot to write but too-lazy to write” scenario, which causes the delay in updating of the posts.. :S haha. O and also not to forget that little element of memory loss. I can’t seem to remember things very well… since like.. I have no idea. I forgot.. :(. Bleah.

On the topic of memory-loss.. and related stuff.. School has started for me (school = memory-loss and other memory-loss related activity)… its NO LONGER holidays for me.. MY HOLIDAYS HAVE ENDED.. so please if you are reading this.. do stop smsing me.. saying that its my holiday therefore i should go out with you people.. well.. my time-table is pretty screwed.. its not like the previous year.. we had so many breaks :D. awesome breaks meant for one activity and only one. ;). class-bonding. Haha ok moving on.. I am actually quite psyched that school has started... for all who haven’t or never worked in your entire life before (i was once like that! awesome..) trust me when I say that STUDIES > work. i, personally would rather stare at my friend’s face for 12 hours and talk nonsensical crap (really.. really nonsensical crap which i will be writing about it soon..) than to stare at that dreaded machine (you know the one you are staring at now… brain-juice sucking monster…) for 8 hours..

O.. and a lot of people are learning to drive! SEXY.. (although Singapore drivers = trashy drunkards who have one eye close and one hand tied to their foot when driving.. sorry to offend anyone but...).. that means more free rides around the campus! Right mysterious friend K, MW, AF and E. if not arh.. I scratch your car.. :D. awesome.. its pretty amazing to know that once you pass your driving test.. you become more practical when choosing a car to buy.. o I carried out tests on a few of you people just to clarify this point! (if I asked you this : “if you have 500k what car would you buy?”.. you have been tested. :)) but I am still going to delude myself and get myself a sexy BMW mini cooper, a Lamborghini Reventon (mega-sexy car), a Mitsuoka Orochi and just for fun a 1967 Ford Mustang (just to make loud noises at you. :P) even after I pass the driving test.. now all you typical Singaporean drivers watch out.. if I am in the right of way.. and you so happen to be that little drunkard doing some funny stunts.. I am going to crash my car into yours.. claim insurance and file for the loss of transportation :P and earn some money while watching your wrecked car go up in flames.. (now I ain’t so bad.. I will help you put out the fire with a fire extinguisher stored in my boot.. after which I will bill it to you :D. AWESOME.)

Sexy Lamborghini Reventon.. (the guy at the backdrop just spoils the picture of the car..)


Stylish Mitsuoka Orochi.. (nice and unique design..)


Strong 1967 Ford Mustang.. (not for the faint hearted..)



Falling back to reality... if you think that I am a car fanatic.. you are pretty wrong.. these informations are just stuck at the back of my head.. I can’t get it out! Bleah.. o and I guess this kind of allows me not to be so ‘lost’ when people start talking about cars. and also if you noticed.. i don't really like porsche and ferrari.. its too common.. bleah.

well.. that’s all for now..

Day Sixty-Three in Captivity..

super-mega post. with photos ;)

haha another backdated post. so sorry. :) this post was meant for a saturday.. the saturday which i went back to work.. :O. i can't believe i did that anyway (saturday mornings are just so meant for sleeping in! and it rained! perfect weather.. before going out in the afternoon!).. well theoretical yesterday was suppose to be my last day.. friday was when i officially terminated my work contract.! and say bye-bye to everyone! but noooooo…. fate decided to add an evil twist to my working life..

to make a long story short...

at 5.29 p.m when i was about to clock off from work (in fact i did).. my manager caught me!.. at the eleventh hour.. (if there was anything more than the eleventh hour.. it would be the eleventh hour and the fifty-ninth minute).. and asked me to do OT (overtime) she even called me cute and handsome ;) which made me pleasantly happy.. but YA. MAIN POINT: OVERTIME = BAD. OVERTIME ON LAST DAY = SUPER DUPER BAD :O. bleah. friday night fever poof-ed away in an instant.. thank goodness my other colleagues persuaded her to let me come back on saturday (which i didn't know if it was a good thing or not...)

anyway this post is dedicated to my last day! (FRIDAY. Ka-pish). went to office 45 minutes earlier like usual.. to SLEEP! :D. haha anyway.. i was surfing the net during my breaktime around 10.30 a.m when my internet browser got LOCKED. the freaking IT department caught me surfing the net.. :S. and a report was generated and sent to the manager.. (arh.. crappy) on top of that mysterious friend T, S, and D decided to be really E-V-I-L and bluff me. they said that my day's pay would be deducted by half.. -.=. i actually believed them and ran around asking the permanent staff (my second 'mom' mysterious colleague N) if i could take half a day off.. logic being that since my pay was getting cutted it was equivalent to like a half day off? but Noooo... SHE BLUFFED ME too. whao lao. she scared me by telling me that if i took half a day off.. the pay gets cut by 3/4.. omgosh.. they only told me the truth at like 3.30 p.m :S. 5 hours of torment..

well all in all.. this temporary job gave me quite a experience.. especially in customer service industry since i did alot of callings.. and answerings people desperate cries of help.. nah just kidding. :D. (i have no clear description of my job.. rememeber?) some stuff i learned...

when calling a company up..
GOLDEN RULE #1: the guy who picks up the phone on behalf of the company wishes to put down the phone ASAP.. he has a dozen of phone calls to make/take.. so just get to the point.. in a nice manner.
GOLDEN RULE #2: if you as a customer gets pissed at the company and vent your anger at the guy who picks up the phone.. you are so going to get cursed at by the whole office when the conversation ends. (word of bad-tempered customers spread around faster than gossips do..)

tadah! so try to avoid those stuff.. although if you get people like me! :) count yourself lucky! eh really! i have a customer who called me 3 days consecutively for 20 minutes each just to chat with me... asking me what i wanted to be.. where i wanted to work in after i quit (because i told him i was quitting on FRIDAY as he wanted to call me again on MONDAY.).. nice fella though.. ;). o and my customers actually remember my name! i am so proud of that man.. gosh.. normally when customers call back they would be like can i speak to MR./MS. -insert surname here-.. my customers call me back and say my NAME! woot!.. although there are really some black sheeps(CUSTOMERS) out there.. who just wants to ruin your day.. ok enough!

well mysterious friend H took some photos and sent it to me for remembrance.. so i decided to post it up.. as a way of saying thanks and showing how much i appreciate it!

thats me and mysterious friend H! haha she is my fourth 'wife' ;). how it started.. read on.. haha. thanks for the photos.




my hi-five and POLE buddy! mysterious friend T who was involved in bluffing me.. humpf..




haha the people sitting around me! mysterious friend T, me, mysterious friend S and mysterious friend D. (L-R. Clockwise.). the bunch of crappers.




/ haha my last and third 'wives'. the supervisor was mean and held them after work! so i didnt get a chance to take photos with them humpf!




me and my first 'wife'! she was the one who started the whole 'wifey' thingy.. it went.. one morning (can't remember which morning).. i noticed that she was tired.. (i used to be sitting opposite her).. being nice.. i asked her if she went clubbing last night! reason being that she stayed out last night! and she said YES. after which she started to laugh.. (by this time i was lost.).. and she told my other colleagues (which are my respective 'wives' in malay) that she heard me asking her if she wanted to Ka-Wing with me (i think thats how you spell it in malay.. Ka-Wing in malay = Marriage.. i have no idea how clubbing became Ka-wing. but ya).. lastly she told me about it in english after everyone was laughing.. and i was like.. WHY DID YOU EVEN SAY YES IF YOU HEARD ME ASKING YOU TO MARRY ME?! and we spent a whole hour.. laughing at this LOUDLY.. and one by one the rest followed and be my 'wives'.




my sexy e-bu (translation: mother)! who wanted to make nasi briyani for my wedding... -.-. o well. o she is my 'supervisor' also. amacammmmm.. jammbu. (i think that's 'whats up babe' in malay..)




haha ermm me and three of my wives.. (L-R) mysterious friend SA(first 'wife'), mysterious friend H(fourth 'wife') and mysterious HID(third 'wife').. followed by me!

me and my fifth wife! haha mysterious friend F. she sat beside me for a period of time.. and man. does she has nice wheat biscuits.. awesome.. in short i don't need to take breakfast before going to work.. i have my breakfast at work! :D




me and my third wife! haha mysterious friend HID. ;) some guy in the office likes her! haha and i know who he is! i was actually teasing him about it.! o yea.. mysterious friend HID is like doraemon.. her bag is a never ending 7-eleven snack store.. i kept eating her AWESOME (really awesomely nice) snacks..




haha me and my 'wives'. ahah in case you don't know.. i cant touch any of them.. because they wear the 'tudong' which is a symbol of faith! haah its taboo to touch them! unless you're their immediate family. or maybe just family members.




haha well.. i decided to publish this photo because i felt kind of bad.. towards the girl! (mysterious girl SY) haha i enjoy teasing and joking with her! because she is darn slow.. it takes a whole 5 mins for her to finally start laughing at a joke.. after everyone stop laughing! haha which makes everyone laugh again ;).




me fooling around with the manager cubicle ;D. haha i was posing as if i was the manager.. weeeee!

ok thats all... no more photos.. actually there is somemore.. but i am just too lazy to post more up :D.. haha. anyway before i end off. i would just like to say this to my colleagues. it's been my pleasure solely to be able to get to know you guys.. crap around and joke with you guys.. haha thanks for letting me get to know you ;)..

well.. thats all for now....
