wants a glam job

Saw a familiar face when I flipped through March's issue of Cleo. No, no, not the 50 eligible bachelors although I noticed that there was this one guy from my jc. I was looking at the snapshots section of the Cleo team and saw this girl who was from my secondary school and later on, same jc. She was from my senior class in jc and she was my angel when we played the angel-mortal game during orientation. That was how I got to know her and....she's now the SENIOR FEATURES WRITER for Cleo. Well I think that's so cool loh. To bag a job in a fashion magazine. That used to be my dream job....haha. Ever since the longest of time before I entered uni, I wanted to be a journalist or to write for a fashion mag. Despite the tight deadlines for publications, I still believe it's a pretty glam job. At least you are writing for something you actually have a passion and interest in....not like some shit I am writing now. Just write in a way that won't invite more questions from the top.

Sighhhhhhhhh... yah yah don't ask me why what I am doing with my life. It is too late (?). What was I thinking when I was filling up my uni application? Lol. Too bad. Move on...

xin nian kuai le

I've got work to do which I actually planned to get it out of the way during cny eve so I can enjoy my cny proper. But no, I decided I really don't give a damn and that between sleep and turning on the IBM, I took the former and had a good 3 hours plus nap this afternoon. Lovely...and I dreamt I was in Taipei, oh well...

No bitchings in this entry. It's CNY after all so happy CNY yah and enjoy the well deserved break.

Pure brat (pun intended)

The only redeeming thing about my current job is the client. As in the people in the company, not the job itself per say as it is a shitty job by nature. Even the accountant that the pure brat loathes is rather bearable as compared to the pure brat (bred).

To the Pure Brat:

You are of the same rank as me and the basic thing you could show me is courtesy or some form of respect. But you don't. You speak to me in a commanding tone and you keep repeating questions about things I have already asked the client but they are still pending (and I told you that already!). Just once is enough. Thank you. You want me to do things which are impractical and we end up just wasting time. And the list goes on.......Wtf. Who the hell do you think you are? I understand you are stressed and I try to see it from your point of view...I try to be accomodating but you are truly testing my patience. I only started on that entity proper on Monday and you are asking me what I have finished today when that shit entity is not easy to do in the first place. Furthermore I had to leave to meet the partner in the afternoon. This year one assistant thinks you are a very PR person but from the way that you are pissing off the client and pissing your fellow team mate, that's not PR, that's ZERO EQ. Arghhhh I really dread seeing you again tomorrow and Friday after which I am thankful that you'll vanish from my sight till the next Friday.

The job is shitty enough already with a shitty manager too who gets frustrated easily...plus a pure brat to ruffle my feathers. !@#

I am so determined to get out of this job. Even if I can't....I rather work with another team on the same job. The people seemed much nicer and friendlier than this pure brat. Of course not not all pure breds are brats. So far the people I met have been nice. I'm just unlucky to meet one, in my biggest job no less and in the SAME team. Sigh sigh.

Sucky V-day.

the non-existent birthday and v-day

I can foresee that next week will be the saddest week, in February that is cos I have no idea how many sad weeks there are to come. Anyway next week is different due to 2 special consecutive dates one of which is inapplicable to me...but still....why am I meeting the partner on V-day?! Sigh...okay next up, the non-existent b-day which I am very sure I'll be buried in work on that day considering the fact that the 'hot date' with the retiring partner is on the next day. By hook or crook, I will still attempt to wriggle out slightly earlier on Tuesday. I will try my darnest to keep this as low profile as possible as who the hell would give a f*** about the b-day with all the pressing deadlines and shit work. Besides I am a new joinee to the team and I don't wish to appear AA...we are not that close anyway. Okay no one cares and I don't want them to care but can I just leave earlier on Tuesday? :(

So CNY is just round the corner but it seems like centuries away. Sigh I guess I really don't like this job.

offcially broke

I am officially broke from too much clothes-buying and I really dread to see the cc bill this month. In fact, haven't cleared the one from January. :x

But I don't feel as if I have done much cny clothes-buying. The stuff I bought are either working clothes OR clothes that my mom totally forbids me to wear during cny. Not that it's any flashy, bareall stuff...she just thinks they are inappropriate. Hmm. Aiyah cny is just another day...

Time for marathon drama watching.
