When you are down with a fever may sometimes be a good and also a bad thing.

Good thing is that you get to escape from work. A torturous place where you have loads and piles of work to do everyday. You get to stay at home and enjoy the comfort of your own bed, watch tv from morning all the way till night.

Bad thing is that, when you are sick, you have to hide yrself in yr blankets to keep yourself warm. But when you are well once again, your days just goes-by by watching tv and walking round and round your house doing nothing. Especially when you have not started school as yet.

I am seriously totally bored. 3 days at home all the way....

1st day - Heated up with fever and hiding myself under the blanket for the for day. Slept from 2pm to 7pm, a total of 5 hours

2nd day - Felt much better by late morning. Watch tv from morning till night, a total of 11 hours.

3rd day - Had to cut my hair before my mum starts nagging again. Reached home and continue to watch tv again. Hmmmm.....

I think I sort of hate this type of lifestyle. Practically, NO LIFE!!!

I need to get out of the house or I will die of boredom.

Great Singapore Sale is here but its of no use for me as I have not received any single cent.

For this semester of poly life, I would only have to return to school for 2 days of school. I simply wonder how am I gonna plan my time for the rest of the non-school days. Hmmm.....

I am really getting very bored!!!
HELP!!!

~???~

Hmmmm...... have not been blogging for quite some time... I suddenly feel that I have no idea how its goes about.

Too many things happen within the 2 months holidays of mine. Hibernating, salsa-ing, meeting up with pals and of cos not forgetting the daily routine... working, working, working...

Its coming to 2 months and I have not received a single cent. I am totally broke.

In the office... arguements and more arguements and worse of all is when I am been sandwiched in between by 2 superiors each asking me to do different things.

There's still loads of work to be completed. Accounts have yet to be sent over to the US to be audited but there are still many missing documents.

I am dead tired. Hmmm......

~Hooray~

Next Tuesday, I officially stop working. Great!!! I am so happy that I need not drag my feet all the way to work on Wednesday. Need not face my supervisor. Sucky supervisor I have even though he is my friend. After Tuesday onwards, we have got nothing to do with each other. I cant stand him... He is horrible and demanding with super high expectations. I not be talking to him from then on and thats for sure.

One advice-my friends, never ever work with a friend.... If anything goes wrong, the friendship will just break for nothing. This happens not only to me... Goes the same for my brother as well.

After 1 month of work with him, we see through each other's character much more clearly.
It's 1 month full of humilation/'suanning' by him. -_-''' You wun imagine what he says about me!! Damn!
1 month of having to see his attitude.
Never one day, I would go saying, 'Hey I enjoy my job alot'... -_-'''
He even complained about me to another dance friend even before I do. 'Hello... what's that suppose to mean!'
He has no patience in teaching... The permanent gal who just came in also agree with that too... So I am not lying.
I have been trying my best to meet his expectations but somehow he is not satisfied with it.
In the first place before I start working, I told him this, 'If you find me not capable, pls sack me... or else you need to guide me along the way.'
Yes, I know his ultimate motive is to make us learn. But he just cant keep on asking and asking the same qns when we have already answered him. And when just that we are not able to answer him, he will start his attitude again. No patience at all....

On Friday, the same things happen again. I was so fed up that I finally blasted out and raised my voice a little.
Everyone makes mistakes. No one is perfect at all. And the main idea to teach and guide. Even a permanent stuff gets a 3 months probation. Moreover, I am just only a temporary stuff and I managed to do so much things for him. Having to re-do the 2 whole sets of accounts without much guidance. And no guidance from him to teach me on how to use the accounting software. I had to settle the problem all by myself... what fuss is he making! He, himself do not even know how to use the software. So what if you are an accounts manager! If I am not in a wrong, I will not give a damn.

I may tolerate for 1 month but not forever! Show other people respect first before having others to respect you.

So Sulie, Penny..... Soeul Garden dinner will be coming soon I suppose rite! Keke

~Malaysian Dancesport Competition~

Dancing and grooving away as usual...

Left for Kuala Lumpur last friday for the 'Malaysian Dancesport Competition'. Sitting in a coach for a total of 5 - 6hrs is really a torture gone through. Board the bus at 8pm and the journey was tedious. I was not able to sleep at all. The seats are cramp and I could hardly stretch my leg out. I was practically have leg cramps throughout the journey. Worse of all, the bus driver played a vcd movie on 'GREASE'. Sucky show I would say.... The next moment when I was able to fall asleep, I was then awoken by the loud music. Damn!!!! Horrible ride!

The whole KL trip was not a great one at all. Loads of situation happened throughout. The moment we checked into the hotel, we were suddenly told that we had to fork out the hotel money first when in the first place we were told that all lodging and dance registration expenses were paid. All we need were our own expenses to spend. It was 230am in the morning when we reached the hotel. I wonder if we all were not able to spilt out the money, I bet we were be sleeping along the roadside.

The second day was not great at all as well. We didnt have enough sleep as most of us slept at 430am in the morning. When we were all prepared to leave for breakfast at the nearby coffee shop, the worse part came. I LOST S$50!!! It was so stupid of me to forget that I place S$100 in my passport and forgot to put them in my wallet. I bet the custom lady took it! Hai.... Poorer by S$50!! and that would be like $100 ringgit! Damn! But after all the retail therapy me and Caryn had. I didnt feel the ache much more. Love Caryn... we carry the same pronounciation of name and we too had the same choice of taste in clothes and shoes and mostly everything also. Sweet nice gal I would say.
We had fun at the KLCC science centre. The science centre there really cannot compare with the one in Singapore.
Back at the hotel, many things happened.... couples quarrelling.... having to torerate each other's habits.

Sunday!! Here comes the big event. The dance competition day. Actually, me, Vannessa and Caryn wanted to return to the hotel to have a proper wash up. Last minute, we decided not to go back to the hotel to change. Everyone of us were in a rush. We all had to assemble at the lobby at 830am... but by the time we start to do our hair, it was already 730am... the time was very tight considering that we had to style our hair and a little make up on first.
Reach the competition venue to test out the floor and for registration, after that we were all off to the toilet to do the rest of our make up. Woo.... I have a thick layer of make up smack on my face and loads of hair gel and hair spray to 'stick' my hair together.

230pm was when we started our dance competition.
Beginner's cha cha cha... Amelia and some of them said that me and Theodore did well... and indeed we managed to get into the semi-finals considering that there are many strong competitors out there.
The most dreadful part was during our jive dance, I think I totally let Theo down. We practiced so hard for the dance. But I have no idea why but I suddenly went blank at the dancefloor. I forgot all my dance step routine. I stopped.... I dragged.... my mind was empty... I just didnt know what to do.
We didnt have the time to catch our breath and immediately it was the semi-finals cha cha cha. Gosh!! OMG!!
After the whole event, I was sad.... after all the hard work... we had fun but it didnt pay off. Hai!!
Oh well, by the end of the competition, we were dead tired.

At night was when all the fun was supposed to be. The usual gang, Caryn, Chun Lim, Daryl, Harie, Karen... we all bought McDonald's back to the hotel... and started talking crap. Then I spilled out my saddness to them. And what Daryl said made me touch, 'I really salute you and Theo. You guys still managed to get into the semi-finals considering that you only took 2 days to learn the whole cha cha routine. Theo didnt really had the time and both of you hardly managed to practice, you guys are good and daring to join the competition.' Oh man... so love what Daryl said.
Then, everyone gathered at 'my' room, but before I could do anything, I knocked out dead tired... Even though they were all laughing to the core, I just was not able to wake up and check out was going on. I only sort of know that someone tucked in while I was sleeping.

Finally, the next day was the day to check out and leave for Singapore. We were all so happy. Missed our beds and Singapore NEWater... Oh.. did I tell you that the hotel was super miserable when it was supposed to be a 3-star hotel. Pathetic small screen TV. Taps were rusty, water was yellow/brown... Eeek!!

But the best drama part was that at 12pm, Marcus and Michelle quarrelled very badly... so bad to the extend that Marcus packed all his luggage and left the hotel. These peeks are always quarrelling. Michelle is a very stubborn and tempermental person who always wants her way. Everyone calls her the 'high class ah lian'... -_-''' Hai.... whatever they are.... I just wonder how Marcus is able to tolerate her for a year. MAN!!!

Oh anyway, back in Singapore and I had to work immediately the next day. Sian.....

Talked to Harie and Caryn and got to know that Theo still wants me as his dance partner... Woo Hoo .. And the next competition in 31st July, he's going for it and I would be his partner... Hurray!!! Thank god!
