i feel...
like i'm unwanted, being bounced around like a ball. why should i be made to pay for someone else's mistakes??!! especially the mistakes of my paymaster? and you only discover the mistake now.... and the office clerk tells me not to be shocked. but i was already shocked. like what the...
right now, all i can do is wait for the dreaded letter. dreaded because i have already more or less settled into the school and mentally prepared to start the new term teaching there. sigh. why must this happen to me? i should have sounded the alarm bells and followed my instincts when i noticed the i/c no. on the letter did not belong to me.
argh!!! incompetence. oversight. i have nothing else to say.
sustained effort
so now i've started on a regime, let's see whether i can keep it up. *fingers crossed*
on another note, my bro's now on a pair of crutches cos he's trying to keep his weight off his right foot. and what's wrong with his right foot you might ask... to keep a long story short, friend pulled hose toward him, hose entangled with pile of trolleys, trolleys collapse onto bro's right foot, scrapping a big chunk of skin off his sole. OUCH! it was a pretty gross sight. so he's been in quite a lot of pain especially when he walks so decided to borrow a pair of crutches from the ER my mum works in. heh. advantages of being a nurse's son/daughter. was cool to see my mum at work, cleaning my bro's wound at the ER last night.
looks like he will not be able to sail for a couple of days till the "weeping" wound dries up. and not be able to play soccer at the cage tmr with the sailors. lol. serves him right. oops. :P
I don't think I've slept so many hours in a day before. Last night knocked off at about 8.30 woke up about 6 am this morning. So that amounts to 9 hours of sleep. Then went to queue up to see the doc, came back at 9.30, took medicine and slept till about 12. Altogether, that's roughly 12 hours of sleep! Gasp! That's like 50% of the whole day. Oh well, was having quite a high fever when i visited the doc this morning lah so I guess all the sleep was essential for me to recuperate. I was really conked out this morning man. And today it was so hot, I don't know whether I was perspiring because of the heat or because I was "sweating the fever out".
In case any of you were wondering, I'm feeling much better already, thanks. :)
feeling bloody miserable
because my nose is running and my throat is being irritated. argh. someone please just cut out my throat and stop my nose from running! of course, i have a sexy voice again. haha.
i just wanna lie in bed and sleep. boohoos.
it is foolish to fear what you cannot avoid
this is so very true, in more ways than one. I have been a fool all these years to have been avoiding the dentist for so long. Anyway, today I finally went to have my teeth checked and boy, were they in bad shape. So now I'm paying(literally and non-literally) for my phobia. Its damn expensive lah. But no choice lor...damage done already, must deal with it. Bleah. Perhaps I should think of it in another light. That the amount I paid today spread throughout all the years, its really not a lot. Sigh. Must save money liao. Cannot continue spending like nobody's business. especially with GSS coming!!! Arghhh!
Went to the school to be introduced to my P2 class today. They are so adorable! Haha. As usual, information overload, cannot remember everything. Shucks. But the P was very nice, so was everyone else who remembered my face. Heh. They were all so eager to welcome me with open arms, especially the SCM. She's so nice!
new beginning, uncharted territories
The title may not be the most apt for this post, but it was the most spontaneous. Anyway, the verdict is out. I will be given a P2 class to teach come July. And I will be meeting the teacher on Thursday. Apprehensive yet excited. Heh... I guess we teachers really have to be adaptable at all times. So far I've taught P3, P5 and now...P2. That's why they say teaching is never boring. :)
So today, I devoured three quarters of a book which I had started reading a few days ago. And by the end of the MRT ride home, I had finished reading the book. I was quite surprised at how quickly I read it.
So there is gonna be a new shopping mall in Tamp. No!!! The whole of Tamp central will be soooo terribly crowded once it opens. Argh.
On another note, I wanna go swimming!!!!
5 seconds of fame
I think that i'm gonna be the new poster girl of litter picking. sigh. We spent the whole day at wws today filming and also some photo-taking by the ST for an article that's going to be published on 2nd june, Life section. The filming was done for a variety show which will be aired at a later date. I think the whole thing was quite dumb, really. The planting of litter all over the place for the sole purpose of filming and photo taking was quite ridiculous. Hah.
mini wine cellar
My goodness... I think my home has just turned into a mini wine cellar. It all started with Mothers' Day celebrations and the stocking up of red wines from Carrefour. Then we received an invitation to the French Wine Fair which included wine tasting for invited guests or VIPs only. It was held tonight. And boy, did we get good buys. I have only one word to say. Wow! I just tasted a wine we bought from the fair, and I loved it! Choy is a contented girl today. But I seriously am going to avoid alcohol for the next week or so. My liver needs a break.
So anyway, while passing time, I made a stopover at Raffles City Shopping Centre to check out the Robinson's sale. Guess what? I bought a pair of shoes for work. How typical of me huh? Sigh. There goes my resolution to save. But I guess it is always a good investment to spend more on shoes which are comfortable and gives you the support your feet need. Especially cos my feet are broad at the front, so to find really comfortable shoes is like striking 4D. Hahah.
Busy weekend ahead. Bring it on! :)
i don't know why, but it takes more to make me happy these days. i really do wonder why.
sometimes things just don't turn out the way you expect them to. But things always happen for a reason I guess. Never pin too much of your hopes on anything, lest you get too disappointed.
today has been an "unchained melody" day. Not really melody but bikes instead. One chain was broken, and the other chain came out of the groove. Wow.
so we have new electronics in our home. we're waiting for the availability of the newest member yet, a new dvd player.
i really am a sentimental person. and when i do get too sentimental, my heart always rules over my head. good or bad thing?
retail therapy
Spent close to 300 bucks just this afternoon. But I'm feeling very pleased with myself nevertheless. :) Considering i got 2 pairs of specs and 2 pairs of working pants using that amount of money. And, one of the pair of glasses comes with transition lenses. I mean, how cool is that man? Ahahaha....
Ok, I don't know what else to blog about. Back to stoning.... Heh.
