1090. tired

Rant of the day: Another week past...

I think I'm falling sick... Been feeling weak for the past few days but just not letting peeps know. Perhaps due to the unpredictable weather. Suddenly very cold. Suddenly very hot.

Anyway, about 6 more days to Hong Kong but the weird thing is I'm not getting the hype. Maybe too many things going on in office and out-of-office. For example the flat selection thingy... Check feng shui (风水). Check palmistry. Check this. Check that. And it doesn't help when dear is OVER excited about the flat thingy.

*sigh*

Tiring process but don't get me wrong. Not that I don't enjoy the selection process with dear but rather, all these hype and selection work are taking a toll off me mentally.

Then on the graduation day. Regalia rental and collection. Guest tickets. ICT crashes with graduation. Need to plan on the arrangement. So much work just to graduate. Aiyoh...

Only exchanged for HK$ yesterday and I haven't start packing. Haven't buy travel insurance too. Dear keep assuring me on the travel insurance thingy but no actions from her side leh. So is she buying or not? Sian lah...

Watch this to perk you up like what it did to me...

Awwwwww... so cute...

1089. 我也很想

Rant of the day: Exchange rate for HK$ not bad leh...

结婚本来是两个人的事。Keyword是“本来”。结婚也不是两家人的事了。而是两家人 + 展现/表现面子的事。我还没结婚就一大堆的压力。真的不敢想象结婚后天空会是怎样。钱钱钱……我也知道我赚得不多，但很多东西不是我自己想、我说就算。

我也很想找便宜的求婚戒指……得体像样就好。

我也很想找便宜的四点金……简单典雅就好。（反正又不会拿来带在身上）

我也很想找便宜的酒店举办喜宴……体面大方就好。

我也很想找便宜的婚纱像馆……哪儿里拍不重要，把夫妻拍得好看就好。

我很想很想很想budget budget budget……我也知道我钱包能力有限……

谁不想？？？

要面子，就很难便宜。但是我这样想并不代表另一半也这么想。她有她的想法要求。我有我的看法定限。而Mother，你再这样给我一大堆的压力，我迟早会有婚姻恐惧症啊！！！到时后，我压力过大，突然不要结婚怎么办？

*叹*

又会有谁了解我现在的痛苦？想找人倾诉又不知该找谁好……

PS：有时候会想如果另一半是没有要求的女人多好。也许压力会减少许多。

1088. i need 6 months... at least...

Joy of the day: BTO booklet is here!!!

Doctor says...

Your bones are healing well. But the swell is probably due to a torn ligament. This will take roughly 6 months to heal. Might be shorter. Might be longer. Depends...

*sigh*

6 months... That is a long period to get my ankle healed. And, I need to do physiotherapy. This sucks as well. But on a brighter note, I'm excused from IPPT for this window. At least I can rest assured that my ankle get some good rest from strenuous exercises.

I like this doctor. Same doctor that attended to me on my first medical review. Though he didn't smile. But at least he don't ask stupid questions and he take serious examination on my ankle and the x-ray films.

And yes, when he talks to me, he look at me! Unlike Dr. Andrew who reviewed my case on the last visit. The previous doctor was literally talking to my x-ray films. I didn't know those films response to his questions.

1087. ups and downs

Rant of the day: So tired...

Things recently are moving like a roller coaster. Ups and downs.

Me nominated and awarded (should be I think) the Excellent Service Award, Gold Award. =)

Confirming and finalizing my trip for Hong Kong (yippeeee). =)

Got the selection date for my house (double yippeeee). =)

Know the date for my convocation (oh finally). =)

People tendering (though it didn't came as a surprise). =(

Got my car buang and the boot was in bad shape (repaired already and no injuries). =(

2 job applications got rejected (so sad that they didn't even give me the chance for an interview). =(

Flat selection came earlier than expected and have not gotten the queue number for the waterway BTO! =(

Having issues with the flat selection date (extremely extremely upset about this). =(

Glad... But at the same time, upset... Can there be fewer downs? Moreover, the downs are hitting me pretty hard. *sigh*

1086. 购物气闻

Rant of the day: Don't take customer service too much for granted.

好久没有po了。想我吗？哈哈……

元归正传。刚才和dear在义安城 (Ngee Ann City) 光解释，碰到一个令人咋舌的气闻。就在Armani Exchange (AX) 里，dear正在更衣间试穿裙子。在她的对间是一名中国auntie，年约35岁至40岁左右。而陪同的是位本地uncle，大概50几岁了吧。

不知道他们在店里试穿了多久，不过很明显的是他们肯定待了好一下子。因为她的更衣室里，满地都是试穿的衣服。突然听到他们一直在谈论说服务员有多么的“不周到”，“手脚很慢”，“cutting很烂”等等类似的东西。原本不以为然，以为又是typical的购物牢骚。谁知道，当那位auntie在更换的时候，那位uncle很突兀的向更衣间里的一名打工小弟说，“Your staff here all dunno how to smile one ah?”

[打工而已吗……卖笑meh？你又还没有买到任何东西，笑个屁啊？]

那位小弟当然不知道该怎样回答。年龄小，有没有工作经验，哪儿会处理难缠的顾客？看那小弟默默无言，那名uncle就继续发飙。直道有名叫senior的职员来帮忙。但是似乎没有什么帮助。那名uncle就继续以complain的方式恐吓店员，然后又在店里大呼小叫的，像个疯子似的。后来还出口成“脏”，蛮不讲理又没风度。野蛮人指数100%！！！

老实说，搞了蛮久的但是我最终不知道他发飙的目的。是为了要在他那“年轻”的中国妞面前显得“有钱”，有能力“大声”？还是头脑有问题？不然就是更年期？

大声了那么久，却半件衣服都没买，还有什么权力“大声”？

不要把customer service当作是理所当然的。虽然消费者自然因该享有优良的服务，但并不代表能够蛮不讲理、无理取闹。请切记！！！

1085. December Rains is back!!!

Rant of the day: Ate too much. Feeling extremely full now... Bloated...

I remember this local musical. Back than in 1996, I was a poor secondary school student and almost not possible to fork out the money for the ticket. I can't even afford a proper pair of sneakers for myself. But now, IT'S BACK!!! December Rains (雨季) is back and this time round, starring Kit Chan!!! OMG!!!

But... look at the ticket prices again...

Standard - S$129, S$109, S$89, S$69 (all excludes booking fee)

I think... After more than 10 years, I still can't bear to fork out this amount. I could do alot better with $129 (and probably twice the amount for both dear and I). Moreover, I've got a Hong Kong trip coming. Can't splurge on such indulgence right?

Who have the theme song featured in the video?
