It’s a sucky Monday for me. Woke up feeling totally blue and in my half asleep dreamy daze, was hoping hard that it was only Sunday. Ya right. Time to wake up mochi.
Was just complaining to my friend that I’m feeling depressed in general and sure enough, I bought 2 bags in a span of half hour during my lunchtime. I’m crazy. That’s why I should never lunch alone. It’s bad for my wallet and mental health. Now, I’m suffering from the fear that the 2 bags will become white elephants. I even wanted to buy another 2 bags that was going at 2 for $99. 2 for $99!! And I thought it was bloody cheap. What a steal! What a deal! Grab it mochi…. Thoughts I had when I was standing in front of the display shelves, awed by the number of pretty bags I’m seeing..
I would be lugging 3 bags home today including the work bag I brought to work today and I’m still eyeing on the possible esprit bag which maria is checking out for me. Do you really need SO many bags??!! I don’t need but it’ll always be nice to have ma.
Anyway, WTH.I should be saving now to pay back G0V... PISSEDDDD!
I just received a notice that I gotta pay back some performance based payment thingy to m.0.e. $836!!! It’s SHIT. Dunno why this kind of SHIT always land on me. Though Mdm Hu and Miss Peh are also drowning in the SHITwith me, but I still feel shortchanged and that the whole thing is so disgustingly unfair.
They sent me a letter to confirm my resignation dated 25 MAY, with 0 mention of liabilities. Hence, is it not right to assume that I am no longer an employee of m0e already?
The shocking thing is that I’m informed in the current letter dated 25 JUL (2 months later) that my resignation is accepted subjected to me clearing the liabilities as stated in the dictatorial letter. And since I haven’t settled the refund, I’m still an employee of m0e. kaoz… and I already working for another organization. What SHIT is this.
I sent a letter requesting for an explanation as all these refund and entitlement SHIT wasn’t highlighted to me at any point and only informed as and when they wanted that money back. Printed big and loud was that a 5% late payment charge will be levied if I do not settle the amount in a week’s time. That’s worse than ah long’s SHIT.
They were informed of my resignation say 3 weeks before the crediting of the bonus. If I’m not entitled, why was it still credited? A long 2 months later, they are requesting everyone to send a cheque in 7 days to clear the payment.
What the SHIT.
Think I’ll need to use my 2 bags to bag all these SHIT and the SHIT will still be overflowing.
Perhaps it’s a sign that I should head back for the 2 bags for $99 deal.

some info on hyperthyroidism
just chatted with a friend who recently discovered that he was suffering from Hyperthyroid. yep.. as we grow older, we become more updated with all types of weird illnesses. such a sad thing..
basically he only found out when he experienced paralysis and had to be sent to hospital for treatment. Got this little piece of info from a website to summarise the condition.
"In healthy people, the thyroid makes just the right amounts of two hormones, T4 and T3, which have important actions throughout the body. These hormones regulate many aspects of our metabolism, eventually affecting how many calories we burn, how warm we feel, and how much we weigh. In short, the thyroid "runs" our metabolism. These hormones also have direct effects on most organs, including the heart which beats faster and harder under the influence of thyroid hormones. Essentially all cells in the body will respond to increases in thyroid hormone with an increase in the rate at which they conduct their business. Hyperthyroidism is the medical term to describe the signs and symptoms associated with an over production of thyroid hormone. "
Common symptoms of Hyperthyoridism:
Palpitations
Heat intolerance
Nervousness
Insomnia
Breathlessness
Increased bowel movements
Light or absent menstrual periods
Fatigue
Common signs of Hyperthyroidism:
Fast heart rate
Trembling hands
Weight loss
Muscle weakness
Warm moist skin
Hair loss
Staring gaze

dodged the attack from monday bluezzz
come to think of it..nowadays i buy jay chou or mayday cd, i'll bring home, gush about it for a while..then rip the songs into my comp and then it'll be stashed into my cd drawer liao. never to see the daylight again. especially if it's compilation of their greatest hits, don't even need to check out the lyrics.
I support the original but i'm still a pirate somehow.. how contradictory.
monday's surprisingly good. didn't feel too blue. good good.
anywayz, was just telling maria n babu the best way to reject someone whom you're not interested in meeting..
"hey..you free tomorrow?"
" i'm only free on the days which you're not free."
mochi says: it's tuesday...it's KB day!

a cold rainy sunday night..~
decided to change my blog song.. JUMP is too high and too happening for a blog la.. gets me too excited whenever i log in..haha. love the song though..my record was listening to it thoughout my 40min jog.. !! i love mayday!
caught harry potter yesterday.. it was not too bad. frankly i'm not very fascinated by this type of fiction fantasy stories. i watched it coz it's like a big thing that we're not suppose to miss. guess we do get sucked into the social norm in one way or another and in some part of our lives, regardless how strong willed we claim to be.
my buys from J8 : a pair of goggles, denim crops, cardigan and a puma t shirt. but all these for less than a 100 bucks..quite cheap hor! heh.. yep..usual way of how i justify my material wants.
combed orchard today for maria's dress for a function.. never saw so many dresses in my whole life. but the one she bought was sedap...pretty and elegant and unique. of coz...with me as a consultant...ahem. can never go very wrong. after our spree, we met up babu for dinner and it's always so nice chilling and just talking rubbish.. babu's ai4 ren2 was there too but he's like one of our jie meis..just a very masculine one.
dunno why actually, kept addressing him as babu's ai4 ren2. it's like very mushy and so cheenafied. but somehow i always conjure the image of him and babu running shoeless on the beach with their arms wide opened, running towards each other, shouting "ai4 ren2....wo lai le!"
WELL. i'm not very happy w my cutie purchases. the tops are very lousily sewn and looks very lup chup and cheapo. okay okay..they ARE cheap. Only liked 1 piece out of 4... haiz. luckily i bought 4 only. the quality is very lousy also.
accept it mochi, haven't you heard, you pay peanuts you get monkeys? oh..and you lots of waiting time too.
think my spree craze will s.t.o.p here. koko ni tomeru.

cutie's here....Jump's here too
shucks!! forgot to send the agenda out and monday's the meeting...shucksx100. still in my lala land la. dam.
came home straight after work today.. lethargic n feel like nua-ing.
passed by HG mall just now and saw JUMP cd! it's out...yep. needless to say..i bought it! keke. isn't it so so OBvious. would I not buy it if i see it?? would i just pretend the cd doesn't exist and walk pass it without reaching out for my wallet?? would i?? would i? of coz not!
and it came with a free jump poster.. ya. i'm always excited when i get a poster but it'll end up as a white elephant coz i've got no idea where to paste it. worse, i'll spend loads of $ laminating the huge posters and they progress to become not only huge but also expensive white elephants.
One fine day, i came up with a reasoning that I should not waste the poster by preserving them. so i decided to paste them on the insides of the doors of my cupboards so that whenever I open my cupboards, i'll have mayday staring straight at moi. dam cool.
oh yes.. announcement here: everyone listen up please.. my cutie's finally arriving!!! after about 1 and a half months wait!! will not order from cutie again.... can't even remember what i ordered liao lor. for those people who put on weight easily would have outgrown all the clothes by the time they get the stuff......
shall go watch my xun2 qin2 ji4 now...

sleepily feeling a sense of patriotism...
3 days of induction have zoomed pass.
lots of talks conducted by various divisions,packed closely back to back, one after another. one problem that i always have since schooling days is the speed of me gaining restlessness during long talks or lectures. It's almost immediate that my eyelids will auto slip into a state of comatose once my maximum tolerance for boredom is hit. I emphasize only my eyelids, coz my brain and mind seriously wants to remain awake but apparently the signals communicated weren't strong enough.
that was how i spent my 3 days.. helplessly dozing off in the mid of every talk. felt bad and disrespectful to the speaker but i could only apologise.
Thank god for the interesting site visits which I made me feel so proud to be part of this organisation.
All the up and coming road/rail projects...
how land transport is operated and planned...
traffic management, what goes behind the scenes when determining the cycle time of the changing of traffic lights....
an indepth understanding of the unbelievably tedious planning and construction of the expressways...
how the ERP gantryworks...
and we got to view a super futuristic looking, high tech control room with traffic conditions all over singapore, displayed on a screen as big as the cinema's screen...
boring it may be, it did however make me better appreciate the convenience of this island's land transport system.
I can't believe myself just now when i actually took the newly constructed overhead bridge to cross the road instead of my usual jaywalking...haha.
