Can't wait to go home, my cough/cold=flu? is killing me.

Funny thoughts

Juz saw the cover of 8 Days with the Superman image on it. He looks like such a weakling!!!! Couldn't they design his costume to at least show his 6 packs/ or fake it even if he didn't have them??

Then this super funny*in my own opinion* thought struck me. Even hongxin might look more convincing!! *picture of hongxin in a superman costume popped in my mind* (hx has curly hair, almost the same as S-man. and duh! he has mucles)

Man...that image also made me laugh out on the mrt.

Knowing hx, if he had such powers, he *might* be a good hero. But the image that keeps popping in my mind is him:

a)robbing a bank and *hopefully* giving $$ to his friends

or the more and very likely

b) Trying out all the good food in singapore at super speed and of course the usual "bullying" of friends

hmm..somehow in words it doesn't seem that funny. But if u know hx as i do, somehow the combination of his personality and super-like powers seems damm hilarious.

Now back to the mountain load of work that juz came after lunch...(thinking of the hx/S-man thought juz makes me grin)

Appearances

Juz so sick..nah..more like tired to pple mistaking my age. Even though i'm reaching the supposedly all great 21 years of age, pple still think i'm in sec sch!!! Juz last wk a taxi uncle asked me which sec sch i was studying at...zz...

Still remember that time in sec 4 i think(yes it was many many many yrs ago), was in church and this little sec2 kid think i was the same age as him. Didn't know whether to cry or laugh. (in the end i laughed)

Gotten so used to drawing out my I/C when going in for movies/and the very rare outings of clubbings.

Maybe i shld wax or gel my hair instead. Then again, i'm kindof lazy in styling my hair.

Damm...think i spilled water melon juice on my fav jacket..
Feels like a herod of cows juz trampled over my body last night. Kind of tired and aching here and there. How irritating it is. Juz wanna sleep and forgot i'm working. Been coughing the whole buggy morning.

me tired...me sleepy....me want to go sleep..me can't though.

Need more LIFE!!!

Random Thought:

Juz realised i need more excitement/adventure/fun? in my life. Actually all i want to do is maybe something different from what 'ive been doing so far.

I mean playing WC3:dota, PS2, basketball and going for buffets are fun but they do get tiring after sometime. (of course they are still fun, especially playing dota with friends. 1ST BLOOD *usually ivan*)

Hmm..i suppose getting a girlfriend would be a change from the norm (god..i make it sound like a GF is some sort of toy...certainly something i didn't want to or think)

Maybe i shld go to a museum or the Esplanade next time.

.....Random thought ends because it's time to go home.

Bored and ill

ZZZ....finished almost all the work for the except the usual last 2 pieces. Awaiting their arrival by email. Times like these makes me wish i could use msn.....but...darn office policy=no msn= internet restrictions. Can't even access gamefaq.com or gamespot.com. K n n.

Been coughing for the last 2 days. How irritating it is.

From Wikipedia: (heck...i had nothing to do ok?)
Phlegm may be of several different colors.
"Healthy" phlegm is normally clear or white.
Yellow phlegm is normally a sign of an infection, or a case of the common cold.
Greenish or brownish phlegm is nearly always a sign of infection. Greenish or rusty phlegm or phlegm with rusty spots can also be a sign of pneumonia.
Coughing up brown phlegm is also a common symptom of excessive smoking. This is due to resin sticking to the viscous texture of the phlegm and being ejected by the body.

So far mine's been yellow and green. Sian...infection and cold?? ah that sucks. Hopefully it will be gone in a day or 2. *coughs* *coughs harder*

POOR!!!

Since i'm just waiting for the last 2 pieces of work to come in, might as well blog blog blog!

Can't believe the Miami Heats won the NBA playoffs. (was actually rooting for the SAS but they were defeated by Dallas. Later on rooted for Dallas but again...). Instead of usually watching the playoffs on TV, was forced to 'watch' it on the nba website where a word for word description for the game was displayed *pitiful*

Oh ya, managed to knock off work early/only 5 mins overdue yesterday!! was so happy getting back home at 7pm.

Man this month's pay is juz going to be flushed down the drain :

pay back mom for cloths: (ard 250-300)
Own bro $$: (100)
Transportation/meals: $200
Fixing of PS2 : $120
Starting work on Jun 5 hence missing the 2 days (3-4 were wkends) = $104
Total = 824

Hence salary for Jun: $1200 - $824 - CPF = a very pitiful and small amount.
so for those pple thinking of asking for treats (image of certain friends pops up), BUG OFF!

Pauper Victor, that' would be my new name. PVC. (pauper victor cheong). at least for this month...

BORING!!!

Hate it when i have free time and the dumb office doesn't allow usage of msn or acess to email like gmail or hotmail!!! Heck...i don't even have a radio to listen music to (ipods/MP3s not allowed..at least i don't see anyone wearing them while working. Don't want to give the bosses a bad impression)

Now juz surfing the net (wikipedia) and reading other pple's blog. How dull things can become. Really prefer juz chatting with my friends online.

Office life isn't that bad. It's pretty obvious i can't blend or interact as well as my 'upper study' here, due to my lack of knowlegde of hokkien or canto. Everyone's all polite and stuff but well...there's this language barrier i guess. Ah well...i can live with it, after all survived army w/o using them too (only exceptions being the all too common swear words)

Still pretty much a noob when it comes to entering certain deals. ZZZ....hate doing those. 1 mistake might cost me my whole SALARY! (notice the difference btw the word 'allowance' used when in NS?)

Random thought: mel looks prettier w/o her specs. Guess Lasik worked well for her. (drifts off to other thoughts)

Random thoughts

kk finished my afternoon work and having nothing to do till abt 430 or so....WHEE!

ZZZZZZZ...........BORING!!!!

Update(since i forgot i was blogging juz now):

OMG!! I finished ALL my WORK at 5pm!!! except for the last bit which comes in at ard 5.30pm. Does it mean i can go back at 6pm this evening?? ON TIME???!!!

Knowing my 'incredible' luck, some shit is going to happen juz when everything was going so well

*anticipes troubles, theme song of jaws starts playing*

So cold......very cold

Damm office, why must the bloody air cons' temp be set so low? Like trying to work in a f*king freezer.

Finding it normal for my hands to be frozen solid nowadays. Maybe that's why i don't mind buying lunch/fruits for my 'seniors'. Let's me get out of this icy tomb and have some sunlight and fresh air.

Sigh..i wish the office pple would open the binders and let some light in from the windows. Can't stand this feeling of being trapped in this completely man-made structure w/o some sign of nature ard.

I'm still freezing. (tempted to burn the stack of papers in front of me)

WORK WORK!

Now outta army and working at HSBC @ raffles place there. Got the job thanks to my cousin nigel.

so basically i'm working for $1200 a month (haven't excluded CPF yet nor included OT). works out to be $6.50/hr.

Working is NOT that bad. Guess i got lucky i think.

Working hrs=8.30am -6pm (in theory)

(reality) - bloody hell....i come in at 8am. It's the damm 173 BUS i take to clementi stat. If i dun catch it at 0715-0720, it only comes again after 15-25mins. Which would make me come to work at 0835 (late! that's with running all the way from raffles stat to the office)

Of cuz if i catch it at within the specified time, i come to the office super early. *grunts* at least i can clock in that extra 1/2hr as OT..i think.

As for the ending at 6pm....let's juz say the earliest i've ever left was at 6.30pm. latest so far was 7.20pm. (agaain thank god for OT payments)

*thought of Warcraft3 orc's peons saying work work pops up*

Of course all this talk abt OT paying is not confirmed since i've even received my 1st pay check.
(pictures fainting on the grd for not being paid OT at the end of the month)

NEW CAR!

Parents getting or i shld say bought a new car. After our dear old fort laser totally broke down 2x in 1 month.

So the new car would be another fortlaser. From what i heard blue colour (again) but an AUTO car!. sure would make it easier to drive. Then again knowing my mom, it would be many many many months b4 i can drive the car. (P plate= NOOB!!!!= Victor


Talking abt cars, that damm ivan also got his license.

Such a lucky idiot. Super slack tester, drove behind a slow car!! and only got -2 pts!!! WTF!!!! *some pple have all the stupid luck! He spent less than 1/2 the amt i did* Bitch!

TA DA!

3 months since my last entry...sheesh! Even after frequent promises to write more often. (believe it or not, it took me 3 days juz to enter this entry, kept on saying i will blog later)

So to sum up what has happened since Mar 06

a) got my driving license :)

b) ORD!!!! *evil laughter*

c) working at HSBC (raffles place). for the last 2 weeks or is it 3? ah..watever.

more updates soon.
