work lengthens, my life shortens

Wednesday, August 31st, 2005

today’s blog shld b short n sweet coz really it is not much today. but then, work is stretching as our audit is coming nearer.. but sadly.. my social life shortens as i find myself in front fo the computer more often. if i only had something better to do.. but yet sadly i dun really haf much to look forward to except my ORD.

in e end, i spend my days at work, and come back to a home which i log in n whack my life away on fire boars, zombie monkey’s n huge dragons… hahaha.. crapz rite?

*jus stones*

the long road home..

Tuesday, August 30th, 2005

i’m starting to feel really bugged.. every minute n hour in where i am now is really a chore.. arghh!!
lemme explain more.. hey u all.. i’m like back from work.. n as usual work is never fun. but from the day i wuz posted in until now, life in this squardron is really not a walk in the park. for starters, well.. they introduce so many retarded policies until we the seniors prob give up trying to talk some sense to be more flexible in their approach. we also haf ppl in this squardron who without a doubt, try to outshine the rest adding on more unneccesary problems to the rest of the ppl in here. n the management is obviously crap as the policies and initiatives are from them. n to top it off, the juniors here are also crap!.. not all of cos. but the majority dun know wad the crap they are trying to do n making us like minesweepers here as we weed out the mines they put all over the place!..

with tt.. it’s really crap also.. long hrs n no gratitude, n also each mistake ya did, probably gets blown up like 2-3 times n it’s really crap.. only with my ORD to look forward, one really wonders after tt, is the working world out there any more worse than this? with this as experience, i believe nothing can top this off i guess.. =)

*jus dismayed*

time off wasted in bloody ICA

Monday, August 29th, 2005

hey u all.. i’m like so irritated lor.. lemme tell ya more.. i finished work like earlier today.. abt 1330. though i would go n collect my passport.. n i went down all the way to ICA (immgration bldg) in lavender to collect it.. i wuz not informed abt wad to bring n of cos i checked my mail to c if anything wuz inside.. so i juz went down.

so aniwae.. i reached the counter where the personnel told me tht i needed my old passport to process n get my new passport which of cos i did not know i needed to bring until now.. then i know it’s not her fault tht i forgot to bring n it’s her duty but then i wuz like so dammn irritated lor.. knn!!.. wad e hell.. so irritated!!.. i like went all e way there for bloody nothing.. feeling so peeved i guess i juz went back home..

o well.. go n whack some monsters to soothe the anger inside..

*jus peeved*

Friday, August 26th, 2005

back to blogging again as i juz got back from meeting my frens.. met up to discuss details abt e retreat.. rather fruitful i guess n after tt, went to at peter n st paul’s church for sunset mass.. o well.. i guess i will not b attending mass in e morning.. hehehe.. then i went to dinner!! at this place in plaza singapura manhattan fish market.. similar to fish n co.. but only better n cheaper!.. ate this dish called flaming platter for 1.. the guy juz torched my prawnz n fish in front of me w a portable flame thrower thingy.. (hahaha.. i dunno wad it’s called la..) sedap sia.. shiok only. n get this.. it’s like cheaper lor.. 15 bucks compared to a seafood platter in fish n co which is abt wad.. 19-20 bucks? so X!… MANHATTAN FISH MARKET ROXS MANZ!!! exclusively only at plaze sing..

*jus over n out*

recollections abt guard duty..

Thursday, August 25th, 2005

hey u all.. i really muz confess, this week is really relaxful.. today is another sit back n relax day, other than 1 servicing.. prob did not do really much. aniwae, tml is my LAST guard duty tht is actually planned for me.. as the next listing does not haf my batch since we are due to clear leave soon. so aniwae, mixed feelings come to my mind when i dont needa do duty any more.. of coz i will miss the day off after the duty but then the fact tht i dun haf to stay in this place w all the protocol tht we need to do at work.

however, i got invited to meet up w my fren’s on a overnighter tml n the fact tht i got duty on tht day is really such a bummer!.. o well.. i guess we got other days to go out though.. o well..

*jus slacks*

clear leave lo!!!… woot!!…

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

today i got back like 12pm.. again.. this week i took my time off early n left asap.. prob nothing much to tell today.. however, gotta start to plan for my leave alreddi!!.. cant believe it’s so soon.. woot!!… aniwae, prob i’m gonna start clearing from the end of sept all e way thru oct.. though i may haf to come back 1 week for audit in my sqn.. *sucks* then all e way thru nov till abt end of nov where i break 2 weeks to go for detachment. after tt.. all e way home run to ORD in dec!.. my coleagues from my batch some alreddi so kiasu go n apply alreddi.. mebbe i’m juz slow i guess.. or ill-informed.. but i guess i gotta get it done asap.. b4 i lose out.. hahaha..

o well.. so now i’m like at home.. prob for e whole day.. got some stuff to do also.. plan my leave n plan retreat outing in dec.. which unfortunately i cant go due to my persistent detachment which i cant seem to apply leave for.. or more likely difficult to not go.. *grinz*

*jus planz*

job satisfaction in ns? puii!!

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

i juz got back from work abt 2200.. late i guess.. even though i started work at abt 11am in the morning.. *sianz* aniwae.. 2 of our colleagues got recognised for their efforts n they got promoted for tt. well, it’s not my place to say of they are deserving of it but then they have definately worked harder than me..

wad really defines work satisfaction? i may not b certain but definately i dun feel it here.. as long as i go to work not dreading the time u step in the workplace, but only hoping to get out.. it is not satisfaction tht is felt here.. however when ppl get credit done when ya workin ya ass out n dun get it.. sometimes, we cant help but feel resentful abt it.. not in this case i guess.. coz i do not purposefully work my ass off here.. but to other ppl.. maybe they feel tht way.. human nature i guess…

o well.. reality is really true in this incident as we all see ppl fighting for something which is absolutely unneccessary.. =)

*jus sianz*

wad to do when ya cant connect?

Sunday, August 21st, 2005

hey u all.. i’m back from work.. n it’s like 1330!.. woot!!… aniwae.. i woke up late.. even though my fone rang me up at 0530.. i slammed it down n went back to zz.. luckily for my father who woke me up again at 0600!!.. o man.. i flew out into a taxi in reached work abt 15 mins late!.. this lateness cannot b tolerated… even though i had more sleep n made precautions not to b late, i still ended up late. *sighh* aniwae.. work wuz relaxful n i’m getting more slack by the days n hours passing..

so i’m like back home n i’m online. this com is seriously screwing up like big time!.. it’s giving problems tht i alreddi mentioned yest n it occasionally disconnects.. n i really find it seriously irritating!.. i juz hope for a miracle to happen perhaps? or juz some rich donor to sponsor me a new com.. *wishes* o well.. not tht a com will help.. but it numbs the boredom n loneliness i guess..

*jus sianz*

great fish w a nite out w a volatile com

Sunday, August 21st, 2005

hey peeps.. i’ve been receiving a following for replies from my frens.. some saw my blog n prob asked me how am i doing.. to lamenting w me my sorrows i typed or wad i been nagging abt… kinda fun to know tht wad i actually typed is actually been seen..

i better get my blog update on the way b4 my com dies on me again lor… my com has this peculiar habit to being yellow occasionally.. it also display habits to sometimes rebooting with no bloody warning.. n also.. it always nv fails to have the endearing fatal expection blue screen errors n incessant pop ups from a file named "temp532"..it’s most recent project which is to disable me from connecting online to play my online games since it disconnects me when i’m bloody trying to lv up in my game!!..  all the anti-spy software seems not to work, my anti-virus software is bloody unable to update since it’s pirated n it nv seems to b doing it’s job since the virus definations prob is dated by 2002 n the best thing, i could not get to install a newer version! n my father is always complaining y our com so lousy n slow n problematic.. tht kinda bs.. if only i could juz tell him in the face tht this bloody crappy com has been working since like 4-5 yrs ago.. n tht computer’s haf shelf life lor.. my com is super obselete alreddi n he thinks tht computer like can last foreva kinda thing!!.. *pengz*

aniwae.. i had an ok day out i guess? i went to church.. ya da ya da.. n played LAN at katong.. n the most memorable thing is tht we ate dinner at fish n co!.. i ate something which wuz so dammn filling n shiok.. —> swordfish collar.. which incidentally the last time i ate it.. wuz during grace’s 17th bday..  my 1st gf.. *sighh* y i got such head for details? hmmm.. tht wuz make it like abt 4 yrs n 2 mths.. but then again she’s another person whom i’d nv c again in my life.. n which fills me w regret to actually rmb how it became so.. *ponders* nowadays i think so much!.. tht is prob not good..

aniwae.. it wuz a good dinner.. w the server’s.. n today is also the feastday of st pius the tenth.. which is the patron saint of my church’s altar server’s organisation which i hav been in since pri 3… but due to lack of commitment n attitude of the current server’s now, our usual celebration on a sat.. has been cancelled.. *sighh* the newer generation of kids.. prob is spoilt to the core n pampered to the max since they hav so many regulations to prevent them from ani harm.. kids nowadays.. sheesh!!..

o well.. so after my dinner.. i juz went back.. coz i really got work early tml.. n i cant afford to b late any more.. or else my head will really roll.. been like late for 2 times this month alreddi.. tht is real bad..

*jus braces for impact*
