please don't let this happen

I'm so very afraid that I'll be sent to Tianjin on the second week of May!!!

OMG, please don't ever let this happen......I probably should have taken leave during that week. But I didn't want to waste my precious leave when I'm not going anywhere.

I need to cross my fingers.

unpredictable

Holidays are always too short. Came back to work on Wednesday and was immediately seconded out to another department. Seconded out indefinitely per say. Which is not exactly a bad thing considering how suffocating my unit can be. We are like caged animals under the close scrutiny of the monstrous management team.

So life now once again is totally unpredictable with me not knowing where I would be sent to each day. At least the people in the general department have something called a schedule of which I have never had. I even feel like a commodity for sale. Don't get me wrong. It's not a bad thing honestly. They can just second me till Aug'06. That would be when I'll pack my bags and go. Or even earlier.

On another note, Hong Kong was great. :) Unfortunately, the Easter sale didn't ease much of the expensive price tags. Not till the great HK sale in June-Aug'06. But still I spent quite a fair bit on footwear alone. :p

Next stop: Seoul. But whether I can successfully take leave in the late second half of the year remains a big question. And that would be dependent too on whether I'm still in the audit line.

Ha. Everything is so unpredictable.

rainy saturday

I looked like a corpse this morning.

After nursing a sore throat for the past 3 days and getting irritated over the slightest things over the past week, life hasn't been that good. That is an understatement because week in week out, I feel like crap too. That's my life for ya. So even when I'm flying to hk next week, I don't feel the excitement cos hello I'm sick.....and I really need to get well before I screw up my much needed hols.

Just like the way I screwed up the interview earlier this week. I was simply no match for the fresh blood. I think audit kills off creativity after a while. How embarrassing. I should not attempt anymore of this unless I'm fully prepared.

Currently chewing on a lozenge now and not wanting to pluck figures into the bloody audited combined.

That is not the way I want to spend my Saturday.

stupid blogspot

I have tried like 3 or 4 times to get a customized template in here but they have all failed. Each time I tried to insert the blogspot coding, something screwed up when viewed on ie. What is wrong? Anyway my patience is running low and it's Monday morning, meaning the whole bleeding work cycle is gonna repeat itself once more. I'll put this on hold till next weekend. If I'm alive.

I don't even know if I'm going HK anymore. Wails. *curses the hotels*

And currently suffering from goong withdrawal symptoms. Took me 24 episodes to realise that JJH is actually quite dishy. Oh well. Nowadays it's the fickle minded me at work. Whatever happened to My Girl's LDW?

it's been six years!

Happy birthday to you.

2000 - 2006. Wooh..six years since I have met you although I lost you somewhere in the midst.

Knowing full well that you'll never come back into my life again.

But it was good.

Happy birthday once again.

sad

I might be sleeping on the streets in Hong Kong. Hm, if given a choice, I think I'll sleep on the pavement at Paterson Street, Causeway Bay....

They did offer me a hotel in Causeway Bay but it's like a whooping $1k over per pax for the whole trip. Mad, mad, mad! No I don't need to stay in a four star hotel in the prime shopping districts. I just want jordan or the mongkok area but they are all fully booked?!!!! wtf! When I went online to surf those hotel sites, they are available with instant confirmations. So what the hell is the travel agency up to? This happened last year when I booked my Taiwan trip at Natas fair and AGAIN, Natas is really screwed when it comes to free and easy packages. What the hell....I'm not going to fork out that extra 300 bucks and reduced my shopping budget by the same amount.

So the alternative they offer me is some ulu hotel in the tsingyi region which is like freaking near to the airport and disneyland so you can very well guess, it's not within walking distance of any SHOPPING AREAS.

What about I just get the air tickets and book the hotel myself?

A much anticipated getaway is turning out to be a complete nightmare plus my neverending shitload of work to clear. Plus me going off early on Tue for that thingy...

Mucha hire purchase to amortize later.

My life is so sad.
