Pained

After i went for my interview, i went to the dentist.. to cut the long story short, he pulled out my very very stubborn wisdom tooth.. i'd say more and take a pic of the tooth some other day.

my left mouth is now swollen and i was given 5 days MC.. but i was back at work on Tuesday cos i had to rush something.. worked till 10pm.. im gg to stay home on Wed to rest.. but then i am going to KL on thursday for a day trip.. for a potential US$1 million deal.. so my boss hoped that i went.. and ill rest at home on Friday.

And im going to Thailand next week.. think the new airport is opening on Thursday. Hopefully no hitches at the airport.. i hate hitches..

Major Decision

i still havent decided what to wear tmr for the interview. no mood really.

Jobs

i was typing out a rather long blog.. but i was then too lazy..

im going for an interview tomorrow. It was one which a headhunter who called me and asked for my resume and then gave to someone and then said i got shortlisted for an interview..

huge company..but it's at 4pm.. but since it's quite a big company.. so im making some excuse to go for it...told my boss i was going to the dentist...which isnt entirely false cos ill be going to the dentist after the interview.. my mouth hurts so much i cant even smile properly.. how to charm the interviewer with my silly grin man?

it's actually a pain in the ass cos now i have to sneak my suit out of the office..

Been some time

It's been some time since i blogged... cos there's really nothing much to blog about mostly.. I was in Beijing and Shanghai last week ans it was ok.. sometimes,you really got to think before you wish for something. I told my boss earlier this year that i'd like to travel more this year and that i've nvr been to Phuket and the other resort destinations in Thailand and Beijing.. and then in the end, i've been to Phuket twice, Hua Hin once, Pattaya once, Bangkok four times and Beijing twice.. and i might be going to Pattaya and Bangkok next week too.

I managed to meet up with my shanghai friend again (as mentioned before here) this time i was in shanghai.. here're her pics..

Glass

So my drinking glass at the office was broken that day..

In keeping with the fine Ritzenhoff tradition, K@itlynn got me this the other day..



another view..




from the top view.. there's a picture at the base of the glass..



parting view..

Ugandan Gift

Goddess went to Uganda.. duno for wat.. for a holiday it seems.. wonder why anyone would go to Uganda...

in any case, she got me these..



here's a wooden spoon



Actually i have no idea wat this is...looks like those pandan chicken thingy u eat at indonesian restaurants..



then this is a pure honey stolen from a bees' hive..she got stung doing it.. but i doubt this is the actual honey she stole..



and then this is a beeswax candle.. it actually smells like bees' ear wax... weird smell..



Another look at the gifts...this time with the paper bag.. she emphasised that the paper bag also from Uganda..

Gifts..

Edna was kind enough to get me this abercrombie and fitch polo from Taiwan... it's pink cos i told her that im looking to more gay and pastel shirts now.. very very unfortunatley, it's a tad small... i'd need to lose some weight else, i'd look like a fat gay, as opposed to just gay..



then the other day, she was very kind to send me this Phil Collins cd cos i was feeling shitty.. why phil collins? cos she says i'm stuck in the 80s and i love the ah peh songs.. :( seems like every gift is a snide stab at me.



anyway, then i remember i have this phil collins watch..



check out the signatures.. same same..

Yawn

ive been told to blog since i was sianz..

i was just told i'll be travelling to Beijing and then to Shanghai next week. Will be away for the entire week.

So there you go.. i blogged

Ache

as mentioned earlier, i have a toothache... i finally managed to go see a dentist today and i found i had gum infection :(

Cost me S$150 with the x ray and all :(

Given one day MC :)

But duno if ill still go to work or not :(

Then the dentist said that my wisdom tooth coming out...need to extract.. will get 5 days MC :)

but cos my teeth are so crooked, need a specialist to extract.. that'll cost me S$800 :((

but can use medisave ：）

sigh... health is very important guys..

Chocolate and Spice

I queued up for this muffins that day... queued for a good 30 mins..largely cos this woman in front bought S$100 worth of muffins.. then the woman after her bought tons...



my 2 male colleagues gobbled theirs even after their full lunch. Kaitlynn ate two of hers when she got it even though she felt bloated.. i think jaz waited for Kaitlynn to eat then she ate.

I bought some for my family too.. no one liked it.. bleah..

Broken

My blog started off with my cup... i got this cup but then it broke... then i got this one..

Then the office cleaners broke it while washing it.. siggggggggggggggggh...

i was too crestfallen to take a pic of it.

I'm even too crestfallen to get a replacement.. why? i ask myself, why do i bother? we continuously search for something we like, something that suits us, something that makes us feel good about ourselves, something that we want to care for, something that cares for us, something that makes us feel complete..something that... oh i forgot i was only talking about a cup.

in any case, im now without a glass. i have a cup i got as a gift from kaitlynn. but it's a cup, not a glass.. a glass is for drinking plain water and a cup is for warm beverages. a cup cannot replace a glass's purpose and vice cersa.

Having said that, i dont feel an urge to get a replacement for my glass. maybe im tired of searching anymore... not everything lasts forever. All good things mus come to an end someday.

there's this line in Grey's Anatomy "Why do people hammer themselves everyday." "Because then they'll feel good when it stop?"

When will the hammering stop for me?

Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Dont be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
cause Ive seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You dont know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you

So if youre mad, get mad
Dont hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well Im a lot like you
When youre standing at the crossroads
And dont know which path to choose
Let me come along
cause even if youre wrong

Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And Ill never desert you
Ill stand by you

And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
Youre feeling all alone
You wont be on your own

Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you

Ill stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And Ill never desert you
Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you

Amidst the whole sulking the entire day, my boss just officially promoted me... effective 1 Sept... got add pay some more..

Sigh.. though got pay increment.. still something's nagging..happy la but still heavy hearted in a way....
