I can resist everything, but temptation. -Oscar Wilde- `je suis Annabel Annabel is not a girl not yet a woman at amazing 21. She prances in delight every 12 of March but knits her eyebrow when she sees the candles on her cake. She loves life, she bops her head to music, she burns books and she cares for her loved ones. Most importantly, she is keeping her dream alive. `shall we look back numero uno August 2005 September 2005 October 2005 November 2005 December 2005 January 2006 February 2006 March 2006 April 2006 May 2006 June 2006 July 2006 August 2006 September 2006 October 2006 November 2006 December 2006 January 2007 February 2007 March 2007 April 2007 May 2007 June 2007 July 2007 August 2007 October 2007 November 2007 December 2007 January 2008 February 2008 March 2008 April 2008 May 2008 June 2008 July 2008 August 2008 September 2008 October 2008 November 2008 December 2008 January 2009 February 2009 March 2009 April 2009 May 2009 June 2009 July 2009 August 2009 September 2009 October 2009 November 2009 `you're my inspiration the newtown pride alina azlinda andrew christine hidayat huiqi jacq jane jasmine jimmy jingwen jennifer jody julie michelle michael pei xuan tabi victoria vanessa weidong winifred xin yi yihui the ngee ann strength amanda cheng yao dingxuan hongyee huimei huiting huiqi huiwen huiyuan huiyuan CHINA jasleen jessica jinli jingmian joycelyn karmen kok meng liwen lynnette miaolin nicholas nicole meihar peiling pris qiaojuan shihui CHINA shuangying sian choo song keat tracy si min vivian wang yu wayne weijie weikit weiting weizhen xiaowei yuchih yufung zhai jun zhenyuan the colourful ones abby ow addorra amanda ng aunna.tribe danny yeo laoshi cruz ivy jiafa jiahui julee jasper jonathan kian seh liyi laoshi marc mary mirabel peifen peiqi samuel wendy xinrui YCYP tribe yeelin `and i say thank you skin by: Jane |

i don't give a damn about pay rise  Teckwei asked me this question on the night where we met up for the "debriefing" session for Van+Nic's birthday party. He asked, "Do you prefer working at 933 or at The Arts House?" I rolled my eyes and told him that it is an unfair comparison and fyi, i enjoyed my stay at both places very much. She calculated and then shuffed her hp into my fat face that showed this: $0.00 + $0.00 = $0.00  I don't know to cry in laughter or to shed tears of gratitude. My days at The Arts House have come to an end and my bosses are making me start a new journey at Little Arts Academy. I don't know how long i'll survive there. Because, really nothing can overwrite my experience at The Arts House. Dawn, Nini, Shiuan, Amira, Eileen, Donald, Grace, Vivian, Amnah, Rayson, my dearest Burp-burp, Sarah, the techs, the security guards, the friendly people from Viet Lang, 1827, earshot, Timbre, Hospitality team...  You know,even though I was the lowest paid life form in TAH, I was very happy there. And seriously, a bunch of kids and a place with sunshiney murals aint lifting my spirits up. Don't tell me that you have a lot of work lined up for me when you can't get the basic essentials like a bloody workstation with access to the work folders, Internet and printer set up for me. I don't need elaborate Mac or a 17-inch computer screen with a 5gb horsepower. All I bloody want is a table and chair so that I can type away for 8.5hours without killing my back. THANKS.

Don't tell me you no money  I get extremely ruffled when I hear people telling me they no money and then say that I am rich because I am working. Hello. Lao niang's pay is only a miserable $800 AND AND AND Lao Niang settle all her bloody 3 meals outside. AND AND AND The Arts House is situated at stupid ERP-heaven = City Hall. Each freaking meal will cost me at least $6. So if you do the math...(3 x $6) x 30 days = $540, and this does not include the days which I spend more than $6 per meal and on days which i do OT and have to cab, transport and things I need to buy like presents? So which part of me is richer than you NSFs or students who get to enjoy $1 beehoon? Working people does not equate to rich. I get extremely pissed off when people start to hem and haw when it comes to sharing birthday presents. Please la, I also know you guys are no Bill Gates and we all have money issues. But the point is, how many times do you turn 21? And, put your hand to your heart, the present we got for your birthday ain't too cheap either. Although I am not saying you should pay the same equal amount we paid for your gift. but cmon, have a heart. We can always work something out but stop saying that I am rich and "of course can afford ma!" . You are not me. I think I know my POSB and UOB accounts better than you. Kana-jidei-sai. Another reason why I should find a rich boyfriend. Or even better. Cut off all freaking ties with any one who has a birthday. Live in recluse and be a hermit so I need spend money at all for birthday presents. Idea, right? -strokes chin- Sunday, November 08, 2009 @ 1:33 PM
snort snort  My friends placed a bet behind my back, saying that me being a workaholic will be so hooked on working that my claims about going back to school after my gap year will be abjured for something greater. I enjoy working. I really do. Enjoy working so much that I have no qualms about working till 3.30am. As if. -rolls eyes- But then again, i have to constantly remind myself that I need a degree and I pray with my fingers crossed so tightly that I'll get spasms, that perhaps NUS will take pity on me and take me in. People ask me why I didn't enter uni at the same time as my peers. 4 years back, people asked me the same question when I chose to enter poly a year later then the 1988ers. I just have this thing about taking a break each time I enter a new phase in life. In simple terms, I just like to be extra, cannot ah? -snorts- |
