616. bandaged

Rant of the day: I'm in pain...

Waterproof bandage: $0.48
Medical fees: Free
Getting my big, fat and swollen calf on my blog: Priceless...

The injection for cuts is freaking painful! Even now, my left arm still aches. But the good news is that it will last me 5 years before I need to get another such injections.

Well, bones are intact and no hairline factures found but the swell is pretty bad. Sort of like a very very bad bruise. The wound is starting to develop pus and bleeds a lil. When applying medication, it's stings like hell. But phew, I don't need a cast. A blessing in disguise I guess.

Two days MC but it sort of eat into my total annual MC of 14 days. So now, it sort of total up to a hefty 6 days and it's only February! Great...

A lesson learnt I guess for taking the human traffic flow for granted and nothing will happen as long as you follow the way. Somehow, I still curse and swear that fucker!

But hey, sort of able to get away from work and concentrate on my assignment isn't quite a bad idea too. Ok, I'm consoling myself... It's very very painful... *sob*

615. powered wheelchair

Rant of the day: I'm injured! Ouch!

I seriously thinks that the government should mandate that all those users of those electric-powered wheelchair users have to obtain license to use!

These electric-powered wheelchairs are also fast enough perhaps not to kill but at least cost injuries to other pavement users. Image from http://www.power-wheel-chair.net/images/invacare-nutron-r51lxp-folding-electric-wheelchair.jpg

And I am one of the victims. Are you? It's damn fucking painful and it's starting to swell up now. Not even sure if my calf bones have any hairline fractures or not.

Here's the story. I was making my way at the underground pavement at Bedok MRT towards the interchange to fetch my girlfriend. There is a centre divider that marks out left and right direction with clear indicators on the ground. Anyone with a fucking right mind will be able to distinguish which way goes left or right and if you going against the direction!

I was walking, as usual, with my earphone on and smsing my dear that I'm reaching soon. Out of the sudden, I felt a sharp pain on my lower-left calf. When I realised what's going on, the wheelchair left pedal was right in front of my calf! The rider quickly swerve away and made a mad dash from the crowd. I was stunned. My mind was literally blank for the next few seconds and I don't know how to react. All that was in my mind was that my calf is fucking painful and wanted to give a chase but it's simply too painful to even walk slightly faster (not mentioning to chase).

When I managed to make my way to the benches in front of Buzz Newpaper Store at the interchange, I rolled down my socks and was shocked that the other skin had peeled off and started to bleed a lil. I can feel that the sweel is starting to take it's course. Ouch!

Is the rider in the right mind? Is he fucking crazy or what? He is going against the direction and he still squeezed in without any safety consideration of other users? He already lost he's ability to walk and decided to make others the same too? Is any of the organisation or government body going to take up any actions on this?

The person shall get he's retribution. What goes around comes around. He knocks others with his "car" and prolly likewise for him...

614. drowsy

Rant of the day: My brain is not registering what I'm reading...

I'm sick again. Sneezing and sore throat. But the medicine is good. Just 1 tablet and my sneezing problem is almost gone. But beware of the drowsy effect. It's super strong! I can practically feel the knock out effect even though the medication effect should have wear off earlier.

But my throat problem is still an issue. The problem had been around ever since my last job in call centre. Think it's a roll-over effect. The inflammatory comes and go in flashes. It still feels dry and uncomfortable but at least not painful anymore. I've been drinking alot of water but doesn't seems to "lubricate" the throat.

*sigh*

At least today is my last lesson for this module. Ends off with the MCQ test. Not as scary as what we thought and it seems to model in such a way that it ensures everyone should pass this test unless you don't have common dollars and cents sense. But if you wish to score well, you can't do it without reading and remembering all the course readers and lectures. So, it's a matter of whether you wanna make an effort to do it or not.

But hey, I completed the paper in less then 20min. Accomplishment? Nah... There's only 20 questions to start with and it's either you know or you don't. It's should take you more than 30min to complete actually.

One last assignment to go. Deadline on 3rd March. Sickening... Wanna get over and done with.

And seriously, those peps should minimise their chatting volume in class. It's getting a bit too noisy and distracting! It's like I "buy one get many free"; paying for the lecture but I'm hearing more than what the lecturer is going through. Haha...

And I seriously hate it when someone irritates me when I'm not feeling well plus my mood has been going down due to all the office stuff. I'm not into those brainless sick joke when it's not the time to do so. Therefore, please keep your ill-mannered behaviour at home and not bring it to the public for display.

It's back to work tomorrow. Heard that the management had some big issue over manpower today. But I've already taken the attitude. And if you wanna know what attitude is it, read post 613. And if they crosses the line, I might start an "argument" and not "negotiation". That's what I learnt from Nick Naylor. Haha...

613. cbb

Rant of the day: Ahhhh choooo...

It's finally the last lesson for this module tomorrow. 40% MCQ test will put an end to all those strategy planning notes in my bag. Well, of course not an end to those stuff that I can possibly use in my daily life.

I am going nuts with work. Whatever they say, I had already put in my best effort and if they are still trying to be ridiculous and unreasonable, so be it. I am taking the CBB (can't be bothered) attitude. Really feel like putting an end to the misery but can't leave without securing a new job. Have to keep the income on-going else my school fees will be affected. Somehow, everything seems black and white to me.

Skipped my dance lesson today. Dear wasn't in the mood to dance as she can't get up from bed. Really want to go for my class though. It's practically my last opportunity to sweat and destress. *sigh* Oh well...

612. open letter

Rant of the day: The management are a group of suckers and fuckers. They suck up the higher management and fuck up the rest of the staff.

Dear totally-fucked-up officer

Thank you for the 15 minutes grilling session before my knock off time. It's been an honour to have a chance to listen to all your rubbish. The session had been intriguing and enlightening even though whatever that was coming out from your mouth filth the air and stained my ears.

First and foremost, pertaining to your persistent enquiry on why we did not report to you after our course today, we thought it was an arrangement that our primary task is to answer the fucking helpline and clear the queue call as fast as we can? If my memory didn't fails me, there was NO arrangement by YOU that we are to report to you after our course. Perhaps just to remind you that our course officially ends at 5pm. I'm early and decided to came back office to help out with the helpline mind you.

Should you have any arrangement in mind, we would prefer to be informed early like the rest of the working adults in the society. Similarly to the previous lunch arrangement that you had totally forgot about Isaac and I. We had to lunch at 2pm because you had overlooked the fact that we are also made of flesh and blood and requires proper intake of daily nutrients. Maybe we should appreciate that you see us as man of steel and does not require food as fuel for our body.

Secondly, on the voicemail issue, we have to apologise sincerely because we didn't realised that callers would call in the moment we login to the helpline at 8am. Unfortunately, the calls that kept waiting on the queue wouldn't stop. As a responsible and professional helpline agent, we thought that our basic responsibilities should be minimizing the waiting time for the callers, instead of doing other things like checking out how many voicemails are there in the mailbox. But obviously, you think otherwise. Perhaps it's time for us to "learn" your trend of thinking, which might make us as "successful" as you in 10 years time.

It seems like you have totally no idea how a frontline agent works in our daily routine. You don't know frontline at all. Please follow up by dropping that "high" status of yours and take some time to learn our work. We will definitely welcome to guide you along the way.

Thirdly, perhaps just on why the voicemail wasn't retrieved since 11th, just a gentle reminder for you that you had created a spreadsheet yourself on our leave forecast. Please take a closer look that I was on leave on 11th, 12th and 15th. And on 13th and 14th, please try to use that tiny brain of yours to recall that I was assigned to complete the website revamp issues. By the time I was able to login to the helpline, it was already 18th and calls just kept rushing in non-stop since 8am.

Your attempt to look for a scapegoat is obvious and devious. Your statements like "Who is suppose to..." and "Are you sure it wasn't you?" are so old school. It is seriously time for you to take up courses on staff management or intellectual communication as you cannot relate properly. Sometimes, we all have to upgrade ourselves. Like what our director had previously told my buddy (who had left the organisation because of the "wonderful" management) to read up some books on understanding people, perhaps you can do likewise.

Lastly, we will love to inform you that raising your voice on me in front of the branch does not embarrass me. It will only make you look like a monkey as it goes to show how fastastic your management skills are. Please also take note that when we kept quiet and let you do the talking, is because we cannot be bothered with you anymore. But please do not take this advantage to take your frustration out on us as be warned that I am not to be trifled with. When things take on a sharp and extreme turn, I will have no choice to take extreme measures too.

Here, I shall end my letter for you. Thank you for your time again today for that wonderful grilling session.

Regards
Rice

611. eat nipples

Thought of the day: Today is an eating day...

Haha... This is hilarious! "Come see me eat nipples, eat nipples..."

610. 营养午餐

Quote of the day: Leaders are made, not borned.

也只有在星期六的课，才能和同学在学校用餐。Megabites的食物始终是我的最爱。虽然价格稍微贵了一点，但是民以食为天。为了美味又丰富的食物，只要价格还在合理的范围之内，吃了也愉快。

超爱他们的鸡扒。虽然价格涨了一些，而且呈现方式也有不同，但是还是吃得不亦乐乎。香味扑鼻的鸡肉。微焦的口感。不粘齿的白饭。只是稍微闲他们的蔬菜微淡了些。才$4.50就能吃到物超所值的食物。爽！

这豆浆也是必尝的饮料。只需$1.10！“豆”味浓郁。香醇的滋味瞬间在口腔里散发开来。浓浓又醇醇的豆浆味道还会在味蕾停留。赞！

今天是妆艺大游行，而dear也忙着她的表演项目。希望表演一切顺利。妈妈也在电视上看到dear。可惜我没看见。表演人数太多了，看得我眼花缭乱。只要她快乐就好……

609. early valentines'

Rant of the day: Probably three days not seeing my dear again. Haiz...

It's early Valentines' Day with dear. Well, no choice for us since I'm going to sort of "celebrate" the V Day with the rest of my classmates in school. Also, dear is having her Chingay thingy on both Friday and Saturday. Looks like today is the only "appropriate" weekday left.

There's quite a handful of photographs coming up. So if you are having problems loading them, I suggest you click on the "X" on your browser now.

Mundane work as per usual in office. The thought of leaving the organisation gets stronger every single day. Unreasonable workload. Ridiculous request. Brainless persistence. I felt stupid working there.

And of course, I'm late for dinner with dear, all thanks to those time-wasting meetings AFTER 5pm. I am suppose to knock off at 5.30pm for nuts! And before you go on ranting that you leave your office late too, I DON'T get a single cent for OTs and not even time-off.

Anyway, collected the bouquet of flowers that I pre-ordered even though I promised dear that I wouldn't buy any this year. But how can a V Day goes without flowers?

Reached Ichiban Boshi at Esplanade pretty late. Luckily dear had sort of started a lil to ward the hunger off while waiting for me. She's damn stunning today... Many guys can keep their eyes off dear but I sort of enjoyed these kind of attention. They can see but cannot touch. On the contrary... You get what I mean. I'm proud!

Here she is, striking a perfect smile with the flowers. Isn't she lovely?

And how can I resist a shot with her? Gosh, I'm a damn lucky man!

Knowing that my wallet is giving me a whole lot of problems, dear decided to get me one for V Day. It's my favourite brand! Textured surface with luxury of space within. Perfect!

She is simply stunning even with her hair tied up.

No photoshop done except resizing it to fit into my blog. It's like an advert for the braclet she wears. Simply gorgeous. 好梦幻哦！

And definitely how can we miss out enjoying ice-cream! All couples love ice-cream, either in the cafes or on each other. We prefer the former. Haha... All hail Anderson's ice-cream!

我好幸福哦！

Well, something that I need to let off steam for a while. We got back the result for the second module. Just when I thought my result should call for a celebration, I felt the otherwise after that. A distinction. How hard is it to get a distinction? How hard is it to get a high distinction? And again, I got another distinction. Happy? Initially yes. But not for long.

The scores that we saw previously online (which was told to be the wrong scores) appears to be almost identical as per the confirmed results. Happy? Yes for my friends but not for myself. How can there be such extreme scores after moderation? With peps scoring more than 90 out of 100?Are you seriously kidding me? This is like primary school kids scores! And yet, I only get a mere 77 to qualify only a distinction!

The score simply does not justify the amount of work I had put in! I can proudly says that I put in alot more effort than most peps in class. I listen attentively and seldom chit chat during lessons. I take notes whereas the rest simply can't be bothered. I sacrificed my nights, working and reading like a mad cow. And yet...

I researched and planned my essay carefully with ALL the materials in proper places. I wrote and wrote and wrote. Edit, edit and edit. And yet, a mere 32 out of 40 for the essay, which barely crosses the high distinction mark. When I thought this score was not exactly perfect, there's still pep(s) mocking at my score! It's not funny. So what if they scored higher?

What am I? Perhaps another stupid ass working so hard and nothing works out. Sad...

Felt betta after letting the steam out. But still... I'm disappointed.

Ok. That's all for today. Still gotta work and study tomorrow. Tired...

608. dear's back

Rant of the day: It's back to work. Sian...

Dear is BACK! I am so happy and I'm shamelessly saying here that I cried when I saw her. 6 days... I missed her like crazy in just 6 days. I know it sounds silly but...

Lotsa things dear bought for me. But I simply love the vest she bought and it's not cheap. Love it and can't wait to wear it out today. It fits me perfectly. Oops! Perhaps my body is simply too good to hang clothes! 我是天生的衣架子。Wahaha...

Of course, she bought the instant cup noodles from Taiwan! They are all superb! And of course, my favourite 铁蛋! Can't resist their chewy texture with strong scent of herbs. Yummy. And not forgetting all those famous Taiwan products like mochi and pineapple tarts. Woohoo! I can feel the cholestrol but I don't giva damn.

So since she's back, it calls for a celebration! Went to Xing Wang Cafe since when haven't been visiting them for quite a while. Simply love their vegetable rice. Every mouth is a surprise. But a lil oily though. Heck!

After a long break from work, it's back to office tomorrow. How sickening... Don't feel like stepping in FOREVER! But unfortunately, I'll be stuck there till the day I tender. Duh. When will I be able to get out from here?

607. school starts

Quote of the day: Don't hide the truth. Just filter it.

It's back in school today. It's a love and hate affair.

The monotonous lecture almost put me to sleep. And I still can't really pronouce my lecturer's name properly. Whatever... He is kinda too strict to a class of working adults but I get what he means. Here are his house rules:

1. No usage of mobile AT ALL TIMES, else he will not continue till the usage stops.
2. No talking till it's our turn during discussion or presentation, else see point 1.
3. Classes start at 7pm SHARP and will not wait for any latecomers, even though all of us rush to school from work.
4. Individual laptops are to start up before class as the start-up music is a distraction.

Most of it I can understand as it is disturbance to the class but point 3 is a lil too harsh for working adults. It is sooooo difficult for many to just reach school on time as some knocks off at 6pm and together with all those traveling and jamming, it's too hard to comprehend. All the previous lecturers gave a 15min buffer for us to reach but this lecture shows no mercy.

Whatever...

But there's something I like about his class; we get to watch movies (not clips but ENTIRE DVD) during his lessons! Then again, he did mentioned that the movie we watch today is prolly the most entertaining one. So I assume the rest are boring shows. But after today, I've got a new idol -- Nick Naylor. If you don't know who is this guy, watch Thank You For Smoking screened in 2005. He's the man!

Anyway, dear is finally home from Taiwan. Gosh, I missed her so much! I've got so much to tell her but when I hear her voice just now, I just wanna quietly listen to her... 6 days is like a living hell without her around. Even though I looked ok, but I'm actually very lonely inside. Can't wait to see her tomorrow!

Have you ever being looked at by someone in the public that you have no fucking idea who the hell he or she is? Not those "buey song" stares. Not those admiration looks of what you are wearing. Not those "think I know you" looks. It is those looks that makes you feel naked. It is those looks that you feel sexually harassed.

And I got that just now! For goodness sake, it's another man giving me that look. Fuck! He's about mid-30s to early-40s and think he is not local. If it's a lady, fine... But another human with dick?!? And guess what, he's girlfriend was seating next to him, holding onto his hand. Why do I somehow attract attention from the wrong crowd?

And if you think it's just me, Sharon felt the same thing happening to me when we were on bus chatting while on the way home after school. The creepy "look" is just not right... Perhaps, it's the clothes I wear. Perhaps, it's the cologne I used. Or perhaps, I'm simply too HOT to handle. But seriously, I felt so naked just now and I am not joking...

Well, I still have school tomorrow. Hopefully it does not happen again...

606. 抒情慢调

Rant of the day: 好困哦！但是就是睡不着……可能是咖啡因在作祟。

抒情慢调的音乐在夜深人静时，种是会让情绪起伏。很多回忆都会慕名的涌上来。美好的回忆。感伤的记忆。很多不想在记起的东西……

初恋始终很美也很痛……很痛……

她走她的阳光道，我过我的独木桥。她找到她的幸福，我也找到我生命里其中一位最重要也是最爱的人。也还好，能早一点发现其实她不是我的最终。现在的爱反而好有未来哦！

今早7点才到家睡觉。可是翻来覆去，脑海里都是dear的倩影。好想她哦……思念已成了一种病。眼泪也很不经意的划过脸颊。我好想你哦！我真的好想你哦！很想听到你的声音，一下下也好。可是我知道长途电话很贵，也不奢求些什么。只希望你玩得尽兴，身体健康就好。

昨天，在Karen的家与很多同学共了一个聚会。到的人虽然不齐，但也足以把Karen的家塞得满满的。唱K的唱K。聊天的聊天。游戏的游戏。打麻将的打麻将。虽各做各的，但欢聚的感觉很好。

Karen也买了有史以来最大的凤梨塔。真得很大粒！

当然，没有人可以抗拒超“口”爱的Tweety！它到底是公的还是母的呢？

尝试过Gloria Jean's的咖啡吗？昨夜也是我第一次尝试他们的咖啡。还算不错。价格也不会过于昂贵，还算是负担的起的。但是糕点就贵了一点。

不想写了。很累……

605. cny day 2

Yawn of the day: zzzZZZzzzZZZzzz

I haven't danced so wild for quite a long while. And I sweat like a heavy downpour too. Haha. Clubbing last night, or rather early this morning, was quite a blast. To replace my dance class on Sunday since Studio Wu isn't opening this weekend. It's also my first time clubbing with my brother and his gang and also my younger generation of cousins.

But somehow the crowd wasn't quite my type. Shan't go into details on the crowd else I'll be labelled as r****t. You know what I mean la. Music wise, MoS seems to be playing more locally heard hip hop and RnB songs nowadays. Unlike previously, they loved to play all those hip hop songs that weren't heard much here in Singapore.

Left quite early last night, comparing that we checked in at around 12am. Wanted to play a lil longer but seeing Thomas and Kelvin (both my cousins) feeling bored as they don't dance, might as well leave earlier. It's ok, all for the fun of going out together and enjoy.

Second day of Chinese New Year is all about recuperating back my energy. Tired... Slept till 1pm today! Haven't sleep like this for very very long. Yes I know, it's bad for my body as my biological clock is all messed up but I can't be waking up 9am when I slept like 4am last night right?

I love today... Rest...

Dear called me last night before I left for MoS. I missed her so much and I can't stop smiling after hearing her voice. I know we can't chat too long over the phone, so you must take care. But I don't think you can see these mesaages anyway. Not sure when can I hear her voice again...

It's gonna be another eventful day tomorrow. Potluck at Karen's place! Yippee!

604. cny day 1

Rant of the day: Fat... fat... fat... I'm a fat biatch...

Happy Lunar New Year! So how's your ang bao collection so far? Mine wasn't really alot. Just four but I didn't expect alot either. As you get older, the amount of ang baos get lesser. It's natural.

Started off this morning at the Guan Yin temple, praying hard that everyone will have a smooth year ahead. The temple was really crowded and police have to put up barriers to ease the human traffic. But mum and I were pretty lucky. Think we got into the temple in less than 20min.

Believers who didn't managed to get in let their "belongings" behind. Somehow, I felt such acts shows that they wasn't really sincere.

Dinner at aunt's place. It's quite a feast! Abalone and sharkfin (again), pork ribs, scallops and many many more. Yummilicious! But felt really fat after feasting. Heck! It's Chinese New Year! Eat first then say. Haha...

Grandma is getting older everytime I see her. This time, she couldn't differentiate between my brother and I. It's quite sad but aging is part and parcel of our lives and we can stop it.

I'm missing dear alot even though it's just 2 days not seeing her. Hope she's enjoying herself over there. She still have Chingay performance when she's back next week. Must get enough rest ok?

It's clubbing time later with my cousins and my brother and his friends at MoS. Dancing... dancing... dancing... yiii yeah yeah...

603. cny eve

Joy of the day: A new year. A smooth start (I hope)...

Chinese New Year Eve is a good day at work. Most are working half day and so am I. Call volume is pretty low and clear most of my work.

A shot before we handover the helpline to the afternoon shift colleagues. Hope afternoon shift will be smooth.

Dear left for Taiwan with her family for a holiday this late morning till early afternoon while I'm still at work. Don't have the chance to see her off at airport... I miss her soooooo badly. Hope she's fine and enjoying totally over there. She rarely have the chance to go overseas. It's very cold at Taiwan and hope that she had brought enough clothes. Hope her medication is enough as she wasn't feeling well.

Back at home, helped mum to change a new set of sofa cover. Love the contrast of black and red. But it's alot of effort to change the covers. Definitely no easy feat for us at least.

Goodies galore over the table! Not sure how to finish them though. Pineapple tarts, checked. Bak kwa, checked. Mandarin oranges, checked. And lots more!

This year's steamboat reunion dinner is slightly different. Instead of the conventional chicken broth, mum decide to go for a total change and replaced it with soupy porridge instead. It is delicious! The essence of everything in one big pot of porridge. Yummilicious...

So, happy Lunar New Year everyone!

602. 嚷嚷上口

Quote of the day:

就很“讨厌”听到这一种嚷嚷上口的歌，因为旋律会不停的在脑海里播放着。93.3FM最近就长波了这首由大嘴巴（团体名称）演绎的《结果咧》。还算不错，只是女歌手的部分很模糊。咬字几乎能跟周杰伦斗差了。

601. child abuse

Rant of the day: Tuesday "blues"... Because I skipped the Monday blues. Haha...

Child abuse cases are everyday thing. We read and saw on TV for abuses at other countries. Babies being thrown into mid air. Children slapped, punched and kicked for no reasons. Sexual abuses cases galore. We all know how sick these stuff can go, but how about those going on in our very home?

Think many had saw this on news but wanna see all the clips? Follow through the links in sequence below as the embedded was disabled by the publisher.

• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot22xZqLMMI

Watching these clips makes my blood boil! At the very instance, I felt like putting my hands into the clip and slap that fucking maid! The baby is only 2 months old and the neck development ain't strong. Look at the way she flung the baby!

This is seriously too much...

What is it going on in these domestic helpers' mind? The term "domestic helper" is a better way instead of calling them maid but even though their status raised, pay raised and benefits raised, this is what we get for treating them nice. And we always preach that kindness begets kindness. Right...

No doubt, there are also bastards ill-treating their domestic helpers and such acts should not be let off easily too.

Anyway, for those who have employed domestic helper(s) at home, beware... You will never know what kind of helpers you had get.

Cleared another interview today. A remark by the interviewer till now that I still felt ridiculous -- "It is not wise to tell during interview that you will apply what you have learnt in school during work, because it shows that you have not done it before and has no confidence whether will it work or not. Companies don't like you practising in work place." What the heck right? If I don't apply what I had learnt, what's the point of us studying? What a brainless remark. I felt belittled...

600. mahjong

Thought of the day: Will next module be easy?

Mahjong... a game of deceit. It's all about how well you can hide what tiles you want. It's all about how well you can read what tiles others want. It's all about how well you can turn the tables around to your advantage. A game started since 500BC, it's no easy feat to master it fully.

Anyway, I'm never a good mahjong player. I seldom win money on the table and when I play with cash, it's all meant for pure fun and leisure. Never expect to win anything. Therefore, I don't play with high odds. But it's quite fun today at dear's place, playing mahjong with the rest of her cousins. And of course, I lost a lil cash but it's ok.

Had a pre-CNY reunion dinner at dear's place. The table was filled with sumptous dishes. Sharkfin, abalone, sea cucumber, steamboat. And it's my first time eating the legendary Buddha Jump Over the Wall (佛跳墙)! That's what I call a delicacy.

It's abit sad that after Boy Boy's encounter with ticks, now it's Niu Niu's turn and it's quite a bad hit. Dear and some of her relatives were busy picking out the ticks after dinner. Hope things will be fine.

Dear's dad finally sort of "accepted" my existance! Woohoo! Things are looking alot brighter now. Looks like my hard work paid off. Hee...

Another interview tomorrow. Hope things goes on well.

599. 失望延续

Rant of the day: Flunked one interview. One more to go...

很可惜，没法进入媒体业。可能是败在笔试。可能是死在面试。可能是被入音打倒。无论如何，我都无法按奈自己的失落。还是希望有朝一日，能投入媒体这行。

昨夜玩得满迟的。在面试后，急忙的与dear和我的同学在乌节一带chill out。这班人真的很on。话题都百无禁忌，肆无忌惮的讨论着。从cybersex到同性恋，无所不谈！这儿班人真得让我打开“耳”界。哈哈！

当然，在回家时有一点不爽，也不想多谈。希望不会再发生就好了。

纳闷与失望的心情就一直延续到今早。没被入取。回家的安排。心里真的很闷。直到过了午饭后，才稍微的有好转。Dear今天又妆艺游行的彩排，也就无法陪我。既然如此，干脆就在家“烂”了一整天。可是不知为什么，互联网就一直给我问题。气死我了！还好，一切都恢复正常。

今天也终于做了一幅新眼镜。是我目前最……最……最……最……最昂贵的眼镜！包括transition镜片，总共$350！镜框又不是名牌货。还好能回公司claim，皮包也就没这么“痛”。都是妈妈的怂恿下才做了transition镜片的。可是也花得蛮爽的！哈哈！可是要等到初六才能拿到新的眼镜。可惜……

老板们前几天分发了橘子。还蛮甜的。Noorizan也给我好甜好甜的小橘子！Kawaii！有一点不舍得吃，但是就很想尝一尝。好甜……好多汁……

新年的脚步满满的逼近。在过多三天就是新的一年了！咚……咚……咚……呛……希望会是美好的一年。

明天会是很忙得一天。该是休息的时候了。晚安！
