Steamboat session @ Mat's Hse


photographer for the day.....see what World of Warcraft has done to me....? I am no better than a panda on loan from China...

Anyways..first things first...sorry for the delay....the patience on your part was very much appreciated...

That day was the first major meetup of our gang after the start of attachment. We pretty much missed each other's company during the few weeks that we were working. So our dear mini mart organized this steamboat @ her hse so that we could relax and enjoy just like the times in school...here are most of the pics! Enjoy!Posted by Picasa

the day starts with a little ogling at the tv......they look very engrossed dont they....if you pass by coffeeshops nowadays and see such an activity involving a sea of men.....it is usually soccer...no other programme shown on tv can keep their attention for such a long time...HAR! but no...it is not soccer, neither is it porn(tsk tsk)..cant really remember tho Posted by Picasa

Office Politics

Beneath the sheen of the nice glossy smiles of people in the office lie a layer of malice subtly executed through fake smiles and seemingly innocent converstions. The office, well, a small section of it, is split between the camps of wendy and rochelle. Though at first sight, Rochelle is rather good looking, she reminds me of a slut because of her makeup (baby blue). (However, after observing her for some time i find she has those eyes. The slim eyes that slant slightly at the sides which make her look either slutty or cunning). Yes i strongly believe asian skin is not suitable for baby blue makeup. There are 2-3 ladies guilty of this horrendous fashion faux pas. The other girl is one whom i see, the moment i come back from the toilet, that is because she sits just in front of the main entrance. Another woman, is well, rather old, about 30 but dresses in a nice/fancy/quirky way. She does have her own sense of style, rather unique, though her eyeshadow is turquoise, which is alright with asian skin, she does it like goth eye-liner, but picture it in turquoise (disastrous), and i dont know if its natural or not but she purses her lips. She looks rather put together most of the time, other than when she uses turquoise eyeshadow as if its eyeliner.

Michelle is firmly in Rochelle's camp and is an antenna from what is told to me. She tells Rochelle all the bad bits ppl say about well...Rochelle. Michelle is very tan, sometimes wears specs but mostly remains behind the gigantic monitor almost everyone in the office has. Always talking on the phone, has nice long hair, and eyes, but fond of wearing calf length skirts which make her look shorter and fatter. (Har! i just like to think i am more stylish).......Rochelle is one person in this office one should not insult (De Zhui). For, from what i observe, she is on friendly terms with MANY people in the office and has this cute cute face and petite figure that i suspect is of great help to her in her chosen profession(sales). Michelle also frequently talks to Jenny, a secretary of an Angmoh and angela, who wears grey coloured contacts, always clothed in black and has long flowing rebonded hair highlighted red (very nice, wish i could have hair like that also...not say i dont want). The way she wears her black clothes also looks nice (Well..its black duh). and she likes pooh (i have never talked to her, not even hello, or a smile, nor do i ever catch her peeping at me, which michelle always does.)

Wendy does not like rochelle and neither does Diana, they both speak mainly english and share common interests...(wendy's husband is indonesian). Rochelle stopped over @ Diana's desk and said, Diana like machiam Secretary (seemingly innocent conversations), cos she cut the cakes Vince brought back, which Diana highly resented. Wendy is more direct (ala Matilda), which is what i prefer, rather than rochelle who does not bother me often. Wendy is also from a girls school (PLMGS) which i feel a connection to, and besides, the things we chat about during office hours is more my style. Rochelle and Michelle (it rhymes) largely walk to the toilet or refill their water pots together and whisper all through the way.

For most part, i dont talk to Michelle and Rochelle very much if not at all. Mostly talk to wendy who walks over to my and diana's area at least once a day, or sometimes we will walk over to chat with her. But as Wendy is in sales, we generally do not disturb her too much as they are usually very busy.

Steamboat pics @ Mats hse should be up before this weekend. Been busy playing WOW, lazy to load pics.

Big Sister

Work is rather good, i have been graded A for the first week, and B for the next 2 weeks. I have been busy playing World of Warcraft!!! harharhar..i am level 27 now! Anyways. let me introduce some of the people at my workplace. The person who sits directly in front of is Diana, and she is indonesian, she is rather nice, i talk to her more frequently now as she is not so busy also. Then there is wendy who sits opposite us, she is about 30 and has a young kid, when it gets sleepy in the afternoons, she will usually come over with some sour thing to help us keep awake. Sometimes in the mornings as well, she gave me a box of pocky once..and she also dishes advice on things from makeup to protection *gasp*. I find for the first time in my life, i have some sort of a big sister figure in my life. Though i wonder how viable it is to keep a relationship with them. Then there is vince, the sometimes very busy and fierce looking but sometimes super lame sales manager...but i find that he does look like the pig policeman who is the eternal enemy of mashi maro (the dog bunny)......

school is going to start soon, and in addition to working, we will be going back to school on fridays, back to lessons and french with jean marc! harhar...after working for a few weeks, i do realize i really miss the gang, mat, suwan, tong, brain, mark, steph and all....miss them lots..........
then times we spend doing everything and nothing during school...will be meeting most of them @ mats hse today! Having steamboat..yay!!! will take many pictures!

First Day of Work

The first day of work was rather uneventful. I reached at 8.30...and waited quite a while for them to set up a laptop for me as i'm generally doing data entry..since i got the laptop at 11 plus, i wasnt doing anything and was doing data entry for the rest of the day till knock off. This office is rather formal..dont know how to last 3 months with the type of clothes i have..they seem rather hardworking also..dont see anyone eating snake....there are 2 ang mohs here...one is the MD, the other is a sales guy......The average age of the people here is like 30 above...all a little mature....with a few young girls..

For the first day i didnt really dare explore the functions of this laptop i use, but today i'm a little more daring...logged on to msn...and checked email..thats about all i dare to do...besides, there is no one sitting behind me and unless they install checking software, they wont know what i'm doing...seeya later...shall not take too much risks..i want that A grade.
