Doggie Movie

Just came home from watching the movie "10 Promises I Made To My Dog". It was a really good show, in the mold of "Quill". Talks about how the main character struggled to keep her promises and forgottened about them later on in life, only to realise that she had neglected her dog for some time. Being the emotional person that I am, there were moments in the movie where I shed tears. Ahhh......

BBQ Hunting

Going to be having a BBQ soon and I got to go source for cheap sources of food, what with the prices of everything going up now. Sigh. Well, at least I get to do some exercise later while cycling around Singapore. Getting really really fat!

Thou Shall Not Be Praised

The coincidence is so uncanny that it just cannot be put off with a simple, BAH! It seems as if things are failing after the section had been nominated a good performance award. ARGGG! The curse! The curse!

Single For A Long While More

Yup. Singlehood is where I am destined to be in for a longer while more. Well, when you got my physique and not much of a career, it is no wonder that I am not able to attract any potential partners. Of recent, another one whom I had hoped to be a potential partner insisted on being the best of freinds. I hate being the best friend. It is all or nothing. I do not want to be a best friend.

Naughty Cat

My brother's cat can be really irritating at times. It keeps coming to my mum and I for food and when we do not feed it, it attempts to snap at us. Sigh. It is supposed to go to its owner for food, not me or my mum! We feed it out of compassion only. Argggg!

Another Job At An End

I finally tendered my resignation yesterday. Time here has been ok but I can not stand my direct superior and the ungodly timing that I am "required" to work. Sigh. The payoff is pretty good but my health has taken a toll. It is time for me to move on.

Thankfully, my next career path had already been laid out. It was a path I laid out way before I joined my current company. It was only in the recent month that I got news and finalized the offer in only 1 week. This next line would what I really consider to be a career.

What is the difference between a career and a job? A job is something that you do with no inkling of why you are in this line and have little affection for. A career is something that you wish to pursue and excel in with little consideration of the rewards. Naturally, the rewards though not fantastic should not be minuscule else, one would find it difficult to survive.

Back Home

After listing my mum's place as my official address for donkey years, I am finally officially staying at my mum's place. The moving was tiring and all I want to do now is just sleep......

She is coming back tomorrow. I wonder how it will turn out. Hmmm.......

Leaving Home......

After 28 Years, I am finally moving out of my Granny's home. Been packing these few days and tonight will be the last night I will be sleeping here. Tomorrow, I will be back at my Mum's place. No more nearby hawker centre. No more walking to the MRT station to get to work. Sigh. Been here my entire life and now I have to leave this place behind.

If not for my money grubbing Uncles & their wives, I will not need to be forced to move so soon. If they had any intention of helping, they would have offered to help long ago and not give excuases and reasons when help was requested for. Back when both of them moved their home, my family was there to help them and never ever gave excuses of not helping. Now? Sigh. All they care about is the share of money that they will get from the sale of Granny's flat. BAH!

Question Sent

Well.....I finally asked. Alas, I did not do it in person and I chose to send her the message while she was on her flight to Hong Kong. I do not konw what she is thinking. If things work out, I might know the answer by Monday when she returns. Else, this is it.

Fire In The Chute

The rubbish chute at my granny's place caught fire in the afternoon. I had smelt something burning and when I checked the pubbish chute cover, I saw smoke coming out of it. It smelt of burning rubber and plastic. Arggg. Which inconsiderate person did not stub out before flicking the stub into the chute or which idiot burned paper and threw it down the chute?!?!?! I quickly grabbed the pail in the bathroom, filled it up and just threw the water down the chute, hoping that it will in some way smother the flame out. Went downstairs and opened the chute disposal area and found that the "fire" had died by then but not before melting off half the rubbish bin collector. Sigh.

Time

Time is relative and the feeling of time passing is very much the perception of what is being done. If you are doing something you like, you will gladly spend alot of time on the subject matter. However, if you are doing something you loathe, even 10 seconds would be too long.

Silence Again

A while back, she avoided me because I told her I liked her. We didn't talk for a year until she finally looked me up again. Since then, we got to know each other better and even went on a tour together. We are even planning on going away at the end of this year and again next year. Of recent, I thought that maybe, just maybe, she is finally receptive to my advances. However, it seems like I had assumed wrongly.

Day before yesterday, while I was in camp, she messaged me and told me that she was down with flu. I replied asking her about the circumstances and added something extra to the end where I mentioned that her sneezing could have been brought on by me thinking of her too much. Since then, it has been total silence. Even when I messaged her last night and this morning asking her about her conditon. Still nothing. These couple of months, she would usually reply within minutes, else by the end of the day. She has never not replied. The situation now or rather her reaction now is not unlike from 2 years ago. Sigh.

Unable To Speak

Alas. I so wanted to ask her today but the gutless me couldn't say anything. However, in the end, she dropped a bombshell on me. She had invited her good friend to join us for our trip to NZ in November. Sigh. She claims she invited her because her friend could drive so that I would not be oversome by tiredness while driving. I do not know to laugh or to cry.
