Ok. Blog time. Start from. Monday! First day of camp was fun. Ran into Chin Liang,my sec sch friend on the train. Then got acquainted with the rooms. Kinda like it. Very cosy. Had icebreaker and games. Wet but quite fun. =D We were totally owning them. Hohoho. Had some scary night games which was quite fun too. =D Then had secret pal. Mine was attached too bad. =( lol.
Day two went sentosa. Hot but fun too. I tried frisbee withoutby slippers. FRIGGING HOT. My feet were sore after. On the bright side, probably sorta sterilized the undersides of my feet after. =X Also now I know. Next camp I go, screw it, just bring army singlet. Effing hot weather. And don't really need berms. Shorts/FBTs easier to run in. Had to run quite a bit. Lol.
After Sentosa, we screwed the food hunt and went to Soup Spoon to vivo and chilled. Haha. Then returned to hall and sat in the lounge. More funny stuff during secret pal. Day 3, went to West Coast Park for war games. Finale game was frickin' dirty. I had paint and energy drink and vitagen all over me. OAO. Had to wash up after. At least I didn't kena oil or vinegar. Eww. After that we had the secret pal revelation and finale night which was not bad. They had a live band! We went to the lounge and chilled till the morning. We played drinking games. ZOMG uber fun lah. I totally loved it.
Next day, packed up and left. =( Went home to rest and photoshop. Fri, met up with XW for Koi. =D Then caught Lobin Hoot at Vivo after lunch at Brotzeit. Super full! I think it's cos of the pearls. =X Then went to bugis to try and find a iphone battery charger, but I think her friend was mistaken. Not so cheap. Went ehub to meet ben and nx for dinner. Actually not bad. Hahaha. After that cabbed back.
Today ben and xw came by in the afternoon. We made lunch together. Well only xw and I. Ben was fixing my laptop. And he fixed it! I think he can fix anything that was made after the '90s and can be unscrewed and has a circuit board. After that we watched Chuck! I'm going to finish HIMYM later. And BBT. Then get to more photoshop. Sigh. Seriously like working for a client for free! Hmm. Tuition tomorrow then? My long weekend is coming to an end. =( Enjoyed this week. 2 months to uni!
Musing, rants and observations from life around me. May contain a lack of verisimilitude.

Siting at his chair, K peered at the screen, clicking away at the tiny mango trees in a field of green. Then something struck him. No, not physically. Mentally. He had a thought. He was getting these thoughts now and then and they were good. They made him appreciate life...
-=[K]=-
*army makes u think about life
- we're the nicestest
*About life? Why leh?
-=[K]=- Revolution. says (1:43 AM):
*several nights i sit at my computer and spend several minutes of my time harvesting 450 virtual mangoes from 150 virtual trees to make a tidy sum of digital cash
*of no use in real life whatsoever
- we're the nicestest
*Hahaha well, you got free time to do so mah
-=[K]=-
*and i appreciate the freedom that comes with that. =P
*hahaha
- we're the nicestest
*Hahaha
Yeah. =)
GG sleep soon. Sheares camp starts tomorrow. WOOHOO! Been ages since I had anything like this. Still jealous from everyone going on holiday, needa break from work, plus our usual 'organiser' from my sec sch clique being on overseas exercise. Also xw canceled on me. Twice? Once? I forget. Let hope Friday still can go out. Suffice to say, I haven't gone out that much in a long while. =.=
Today was fairly boring. Went for tuition at val's place. Those two rly have got a lot to work on. Sigh. After tuition, stayed to watch the live broadcast of Dr. Goh Keng Swee's funeral. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT. Yeah. So her dad wanted to watch and it was...intriguing, so I watched too. And listened to LHL and LKY's eulogies. Spent my Sunday afternoon like that.
Came home, found my lappy in some problem. =( Met ben at CP but his magic hands didn't work now. See if he can solve it otherwise. Went to buy a brown t-shirt and a 'gift' for my 'secret pal' during camp. Smells like Angels and Demons, oops I mean Angels and Mortals to me. Lol! I'm giving you chocolate! I mean, everybody likescake chocolate right? I just hope whoever me secret pal is, he/she (preferably she xD) is not allergic to hazelnuts. I'd get cake but it IS A LIE!!!! according to some.
Came home, and yeah that's about it. CAMP TMR OMGGGGG.
BTW, this is my vacation autoresponder for my gmail:
Hi, I'm at Sheares Camp from now till 27 May so I will not be able to reply you. If it's deadly urgent (i.e. zombie invasion, apocalyptic meteor strike) you can call my handphone if needed. (Although I do suggest you try 999 first. Or run for your life.)
Cheers!

Feeling sleepy. Maybe I oughta catch some zzzs. Been sleeping late the past few days, even weekends. Today went work was slightly more interesting. A couple ppl there to help finish stuff other people worked till 2AM the night before for. So got someone to talk to. Time passed faster. Oh, one of them is my junior from MJ. What a coincidence! =) Partimer.
After that, went home, online. Nothing much. Camp is approaching! So exciting! I can't wait!

Forgot to mention, yest after work had to collect the bean curd tarts val asked me to buy and inform Anna's tuition center she wasn't coming. Wah. Like run errands lol. But it was ok I guess. I could even find my way back to the tuition agency. Work today was much better and a relief compared to previous days. Fri, must rmb to try and settle whatever I can before I go. So fun!
Oh yes, I just got Photoshop CS5. Woo! Cool. Hope I'll have fun using it in the future. Nothing much goiung on tonight. Maybe a night when I can finally sleep early? lol.

Rest of today was ok actually. Better than previous days. Quite alright. Email from Sheares came! Whee. So fun. Can't wait. I need to get a brown shirt! For my grouping. I dun have any brown shirts. NO, I am not wearing the SAF admin tee. And somehow I think showing up in a Burberry polo tee is a little bit too pretentious. =P
Maybe I can buy something over the weekend. And pack then too. =D Tomorrow is Thurs. One step closer to the weekend! MONDAYYYYY CAMP! Tired. Needa slp soon. My friend asked me to design a couple posters for him. A2. Can't find anything big enough. =\

Oh great my colleagues are arguing in the office. Loudly. This is shaping up to be a a great day. Can you spell abso-fucking-lutely wonderful day? No? You can't? Well of course, you can't! YOU CAN'T HEAR ANYTHING OVER THE BLOODY RACKET! And you're supposed to answer calls. Whee.
---
Man, yesterday at work sucks. Was so friggin' busy. Someone took urgent leave so we were down one person then I dunno what the others were doing. I was pretty much answering calls nearly non-stop for most of the day. Then I pretty much became the first line. On a day with high traffic and less one person. But the last part doesn't really matter. Why? Because basically the calls stream is not flooded.
They come in call after call nicely spaced after one another so the first line can answer EVERYTHING. And it won't spill over into the second line. So there I was with multiple fucking tabs over and shit half done all over the place and the calls keep coming and coming and coming and coming. Because I have just enough time in between to get working on their case but not enough time to finish it.
So at the end of the day we had this new sharing session when I said it was super fucking busy and they were like you need to do this this this, how to improve the handling of the call, but FUCK its so fucking busy and they all hit the first line and don't overflow! =.=
And you end up with a lot of unfinished business like that. =.= And got all the funny cases and shit like that. I sure hope today is better. Yesterday I was picking up calls nonstop and then my other colleague who was in the office messaged me and asked why so busy. Why? Because I am the ONLY person out of 4 answering any calls. It's all over me. =.=

Hmm I didn't blog on Sat or Sun? Well Sat's work kinda uneventful but a little busy. Been having meetings all week. Extra one hour here and there. Went home...stoned. Ya. Had nothing on. Was gonna meet up with XW. Went from can meet to can't meet. Needless to say, was disappointed. Went to Jumbo Seafood at Singapore indoor stadium. Like xw said, they seem understaffed. We asked several times for a dish of mayo. We even said we should try asking the entire staff. lol!
After that, went to Leisure Park to watch a movie with my cousins.We watched The Losers,which was quite nice! It's pretty cool and it mixed in the comic and movie elements nicely. After that went home. Work the next day. I was damn sleepy during the meeting. =.=

[UPDATE]
I AM JEALOUS. EVERYONE seems to be going overseas! Val has gone like what? Twice already, my cousin and lots of ppl I sere on FB are overseas. ROAR. I want too. =( Everyone seems to be enjoying themselves. I don't have. Work work. I wanna go RWS TOO.
---
Rest of work was ok. Got work tomorrow. Seems to be a quiet night. Nothing planned.
---
Apparently I have to take note of something new. To be careful when keying addresses. Why? Because I keyed in $ instead of # for the door number. OH GREAT. ONE SINGLE FUCKING TYPO and you have to feedback it. ITS JUST THAT ONE MISTAKE OUT OF ALLLLLLLL THE ADDRESSES I KEYED BEFORE. DON'T FUCKING TELL ME YOU NEVER MADE A TYPO BEFORE. THE KEY IS JUST TO THE RIGHT OF IT. JEEZ. ONE. JUST ONE WRONG KEY AND YOU MAKE SUCH A BIG FUCKING HOOHA OVER IT. Seriously.
I've got an idea where you can stick your fucking # key. Apparently this twat blindly calls number and such so when she sees a mistake, WHEE IMMA GONNA PLAY TELEPHONEEEE BEEP BEEP BOOP YOU GOTTA MISTAAAAAAKE!~ HAHAHAHAHAHA WHEE!~~ =)
Do you people think you could find it in you, to oh I don't know, to be just a tiny bit LESS ANAL? IT'S A BLOODY SMALL ISSUE. CORRECT IT AND GET THE FUCK OFF. I'm willing to bet you other have keyed in the wrong things occasionally too. SO WHY NITPICK? JEEZ.

Another day of work. Friday is approaching! I'm going down to taka tomorrow with Anna. Her friend has 50% discount at Ralph Lauren. Let's see what I can pick up? Yay. =P I hate morning time. It feels like time is faster than normal. =.= I wake up a few mins before 715, and after I brush my teeth and wash my face its 720. WHAT. It can't be THAT long.
I change and its 725 already. Late again. Everyday I try different ways to wake up early but I feel like I'm getting later. Shall use my old method. Alarm 30 mins b4 the actual time to make me wake up and fall into a lighter sleep. MUST aim to sleep earlier tonight. Slept at 1+ last night. Luckly I had that 1.5 hour lie in bed. =.= Couldn't fall asleep. I'm sleepy now...

My clan just won another war. We are teh ownz. =)

Didn't blog cos I slept late yesterday. At like 1 plus. So that's only like 5 hours plus of sleep. Combine that with just over 2 hours the night before. Was ok but started to feel super tired and fatigued at work. One minor mistake again. Maybe its the lack of sleep. I find myself preoccupied with certain things and losing track of others.
Apart from the usual calls, I have to register people, fill out 1 or 2 excel sheets depending on the case, use the customer system, do various things to their forms, and make maps/graphics as info on how to go to our 30+ test centers islandwide. And occasionally FB. Afternoon felt damn tired. Like breathless and fatigued. =\
Came home today, tried to sleep but failed. =.= Lay in bed from 630 to 8. Then I gave up and went online. Must go run on Thurs. Skipped today. Nevertheless shall try to sleep earlier today. Kinda boring now. Ben in uni, tak is never online, val is overseas, xw is always out. 2.5 months to go. Fine. Endure! 1.5 weeks to sheares camp. YEAH. Going to enjoy myself. Then endure June and July.
I REALLY REALLY wanna go RWS. Can we? Can we? =D

Ben's birthday today! Anyway I went to cut hair today. =D I still kept my fringe. After that went to meet tak at Raffles City. She had to wait 20 mins cos she said 'abouuuuut 2' so I really took it as so. =X I went to pay for my Sheares camp fees. They seem nice. So exciting! =D
Then went around to try and find a place to eat lunch. Eventually went food court. Hmm. Kinda tired...cont tmr.
[Cont.]
God. Tomorrow is Monday again. I hate Monday. Hate, hate, hate, Monday, hate going back to work after the events of last week. Why can't August come fasterr? =( Back to blog.
After lunch, wandered around cos tak was hunting for a glass bottle. XW called and she misintepreted an SMS from Raye I forwarded so she went Vivo instead of somerset to get the cake. Then she got kidnapped by a fiendish evil fiend! This villain was an insurance salesman of sorts. Gasp. So she was ensnared in his evil grip and tak and I went to 313. She still could not meet us. Mel came and we decided to decorate the cake, BUT. There was a waiting list of 7 people! Roar. If we had known we would not have waited at The Coffee Bean for so long and gone to queue for it! =(
So we went down to vivo in the end and met XW to get a table at Marche. It was a night full of laughter. I was actually tired from laughing so much. Hahaha. There was nom nom noms and trololololol all around. It was slightly addictive. Lol. Then ben and xiwen tried to dismantle tak's camera to fix it. Right there on the table at Marche.
We left before Marche closed and gave him the cake outside. Played Still alive through my iPhone and ben's mini speaker. It came through quite well on the vid. Haha. Then NX gave him the Magic Mouse and showed him his Mousehunt shirt!

Another crappy day at work. Right after the events of yesterday. Essentially, somehow all my mistakes have all caught up and chosen this time to ALL come up and hit me. Really badly. Wed night I was informed I forgot to key in some participants into the system and thus did not book a test date for them. They only knew because the participants called to check. Whoops.
Then Thurs came along and they said I did not key in one of the participants into his class. So now the class was full. After several phone calls, I was unable to free up a slot for him. So I had to call him the day before his class started and reschedule a new class for him. Squeezed him into a class which I originally said was full. Smoked my way thru that. Well shit. Whoops #2.
Friday morning I found the person at Jurong where Whoops #2's registration form is at threw a tantrum and tossed the form at and verbally abused my colleague who was there. Whoops #3 + 10 Guilt. This may sound funny but I'm not laughing.
After that, they told me that there were complaints that whenever participants walked in, I have been giving them the red carbon copy of the form which is WRONG because we're not supposed to give it to them until its fully completed. Which it isn't. Yet. So when I pass on the form they were looking for the red ones. Essentially two incidents in the same day. Whoops #4 + 10 Guilt + 10 Fucked. Thing is, no one told me it was wrong. I probably watched them do walk-ins twice before doing it on my own. So I didn't know it's wrong. How am I supposed to 'ask if you dunno' if its not even something you can 'don't know' in the first place?? It's just a...thing! A procedure! Not whether you dunno it or not.
Later today, that same colleague (who was scolded cos of me) came and told me I keyed in the wrong test dates for someone. Whoops#5+30 Guilt+20 Fucked. I called around again and managed to scrounge up one slot for that person. Had to tweak the system but fixed it. Thank goodness. A while later, that (same) person said she couldn't find this form. Whoops #6+50 Guilt+50 Fucked. I remember that bugger. Gey kiang anyhow go AXS pay first then book class. Everyone does it the opposite (correct) way.So drag until Apr book class he don't even rmb when he paid. Dumbass. Very lor soh also.
Somemore I was on my way out of the office. If I hadn't left my bag in the office and taken it with me to the toilet I'd have been outta there. Well now, his form is lost. Totally couldn't find. Had to write a new form. My superior gave up and got me to give her the form so she could fill in some missing details. Then I got a talking-to. Apparently if the 'call center environment is not good for you...maybe you should leave."
God, no. I can't I have to hold on to this job. Fuck, I worked in a call center before! Only this one the procedures are diff. Also for Apr, you guys made me work three weeks straight! Plus I didn't get enough sleep then. PLUS you all left me swamped with work on more than one occasion. Alone while u all were in meetings and on course. Maybe during then these errors occurred?
I can't drop this job. It's not like back then in the army when at the least I had 1k of assured income. It didn't matter what happened at home as long as he found something to do in the end. Now this is not an 'iron rice bowl'. I messaged one of my friends who got me the sound gig. Asked him to look for me if they needed extra manpower on the weeknights and weekends. There's money to be made.
When you have no money, the question is not 'How low will you go?' but rather, 'How much are you offering?'?

When you have no money, the question is not 'How low will you go?' but rather, 'How much are you offering?'?
This not really supposed to be on here but not many people read this. Heck out of my closest friends maybe only three? If I ever get more readers, by then this'll be history. My dad is not working at RWS anymore. There goes my chances of holding my birthday there next time. And once again I am the top earner in my family. Now you see why I control my spending so much. I don't know why it's so much harder for others. Maybe because I truly appreciate the value of money? My iPhone spending app is the best thing that's happened since well, the iPhone. Maybe it's time to start looking for a night job or more tuition? Easy ma. No girlfriend, no life anyways. The weight has shifted to me once more.

I didn't blog yest. Didn't really realise. Anyway it wasn't very special. Just the usual. I slept at 230am. Woke up at 655. =\ Horrible. Shouldn't be doing that too often. After the dearth of calls the last two days, we had quite a bit more today. I had a pretty rough day at work because I messed up earlier, so there was a pretty big screw up later on. Probably caused by one of those stupid times when the calls are non-stop and my papers are all over the place.
After that, I was quite happy to be getting off work today. Need a break. I slept from 7 to 10. When I woke up my first instinct was shit so fast go work again...can I sleep more? I even wanted to snooze until I saw the time 2200. If I didn't set alarm I might have slept till tmr morning. Lol.
On another note, after two months of work, I have returned my bank account to pre-laptop levels. Whoa. I'm awesome alright. I expected it to take three months or so, but two did it. Beyond my best expectations. Work plus extra cash from the sound gig and possibly CSP? I spent maybe 5-600 these two months? The only thing I don't pay for is my own phone bill. Food, transport, entertainment all me.
After the laptop, I probably mentally engaged in a highly conservative savings plan these two months. And let's not forget all the money from my tuition goes to my mum. So I'm essentially doing it for 'free' and getting cash to my folks in addition to supporting myself and healing my bank account. Yeah, I probably can afford the USD$24 Teefury grab bag and the £26 ASOS clothes with free shipping as a reward. =P

Bloody hot night. =.= Even sitting at the computer with a slight breeze from the fan and an open window (which doesn't seem to help much) I'm sweating a little already. Feeling a little sleepy already. All the late nights and early mornings are telling me its time to go to bed. =(
Shall have to sleep soon. Well at least I end early. Plus the extra hour in the morning only a few calls. But to what avail? Come home also do nothing. Work had unusually low calls today. No idea why. I remember I wanted to blog sth. Oh ya. I went online shopping and bought $52 worth of 3 t-shirts. Order shipped today. That's fast. $20 $20 $12. Now I have 6 t shirts headed my way! OMG.
Anna you are influencing me! Haha. But it's a good offer. Free shipping! I also hope I get 3 nice t-shirts from teefury. =D I wish I could buy from shirt.woot. I like their designs ALOT. ESP the Delorean. And the ninja turtles!! Well. I oughta sleep soon I guess.

Country Story is totally sucking BIG TIME. Can't login to my mum's acc at all. Piece of shit. How long already, still got such problems. Total crap. I really ought to quit. The developers are useless. They still can't fix such a long-lasting problem. Tried 2 browsers before 3rd one worked.
Work was ok today. Not a lot for Monday surprisingly. =\ My first 8-5 day. Kinda tiring. Got headaches and the like from lack of sleep. I'm gonna try to sleep by 12 today. I was a little worried about my application to Sheares camp. Went to check out the site. Then received the call. I'm in! YAY! =D Now I'll take off/leave on the 24-27 to have fun.
Worked till about 8 today to clock some extra hours so I can take up my off-in-lieu for camp, then headed home. Need to endure rest of this week.

Quiet saturday aftrernoon. =\ Came home late yesterday after watching Iron Man 2. Gosh I just hit the ctrl key like it was the char switch button on my iphone. lol. Woke up early today to go meet XW and ben. He was helping her to install Win7 on her repaired laptop. Went around futilely looking for any place with a power point. One at KFC we pluged into didn't have power.
This genius KFC staff came along and gestured irritably at the charger. We told him there was no power. He gestured at it some more. Eh? Then the third time he told us to remove the chargers we had placed on the chld seat so he could take it. =.= THEN SAY SO IN THE FIRST PLACE. What a twat. (Oops, too much of The Inbetweeners) Go one full circle for that.
Went to Sengkang CC. We found a power point. WIN! Then this old geezer says the power points are for the small stall vendors there. Made us remove it. Wanker. Hope his shop burns down. He was using it to power a mini fridge and his personal radio. Meh. Went back to my place after buying Macs. Stayed there till XW had to leave for tuition. Now got nth to do. Finished Inbetweeners S2! Watching Ip Man 2 at night.
I pasted a keyboard protector on my lappy. It's a little tough to type but I'll get used to it. Protected from spills and dust. =)
