Actually I’ve got a photo blog, one which I upload photos from my mobile phone either when I’m bored or when I see interesting things. =D

I .. stopped taking medicine. Mainly because I detest taking pills, not to say that the pills are all white. so plain! = Did I mention I didn’t take the cough medicine as well? It only stops the cough but doesn’t cure it. If you get what I mean. That’s what the doc said anyway.

Everyone’s falling sick, many people on MC these days. The virus is all around. I feel so sian that I don’t feel like working this week. It’s not that I’m not motivated at work, but I feel I need to rest completely. Though on MC, I couldn’t rest well, or should I say, I didn’t rest well. Couldn’t help worrying what’s happening at work. Things always crop up when you’re not around. I don’t like that kind of feeling.

Back to work in office, couldn’t concentrate. Feeling restless. Shucks. that shouldn’t be the way! Especially when there’s internal review coming up! I’m feeling stressed. The last in the production line are always the one suffering when those in front delay production. =

I need to find more motivation in life. Many things yearned for & longed for, and yet out of reach. Discouraging? yes. That’s why I need more motivation to keep me going, and to reach out for the things longed for.

Spent a good 2 hrs waiting at the doc this morning. Decided to get rid of the cough and sore throat all at one go, too irritating. Got MC for standby, in case my cough doesn’t stop. Doc said I have a sensitive nose. =

3 different types of pills + cough syrup. So drowsy after the first dosage that my Sunday afternoon was spent on the bed. And am now feeling weak all over. So weak that I feel like lying on my bed and just sleep.

long story. guess I still need more time to get adapted. Unseen pressure started to build up without myself realising, it’s damn bad when it exploded. Best is my body is also giving way at the same time. What a good timing.

Lesson learnt, be more flexible, more adaptable. A small blunder almost cost me my future.

Mistakes to be treated as experience. But how to treat this obstacle as a challenge?

– Face it bravely and admit you’re wrong.

Things will be better tomorrow. hopefully.

Fact is that I didn’t buy anything since 1st July when the hike started officially. No increase in price for food that I had for lunch. Until this morning..  Was happily walking to the soya bean stall, taking out $1.20 for a cup of soya bean milk that I usually buy. Until the stall lady said : “$1.30 please”. Shocked me for a while. Price is increasing everywhere. All shops are fighting to earn more than that 2% increase. Victims are always those at the receiving end. As the saying goes, the rich gets richer and the poor will only get poorer.

So, are you the rich or are you the poor?

Yeah been having aching body the moment I reached home yesterday.

Spent the whole day @ Kovan hub. Organised by Paya Lebar Kovan CC YEC, where my TP CSC khakis are committee of, it was an event of going around the neighbourhood (Kovan area, that is) collecting canned food, dry rations etc for the 19 beneficiaries. Meaningful event, I’d say. Pai seh to fly Shufen aeroplane early in the morning. Sorry gal! I underestimated my timing. Reached Kovan only at 9.30am. =X

Work for us, started only at 11.15am when the students came back from the various collection points. Sorting out the food into vegetarian, halal, non-halal, dry rations & beverages was quite a hassle, if you’ve seen the number of volunteers we had. Things were going on fine in our section (non-halal) with me, Shufen & Dennis. Well co-ordinated work among the 3 of us, without specifying who do what. Heh! Great 默契!

3pm. All done. Prepared to leave. And then! “Repack!”  What the!!! I was wearing white shorts lah.. didn’t sit much the whole day, so you can imagine how tired my feet were. Sigh.. Why the repack command when you could have told us specific instructions before we started packing into boxes?!?!?! It’s crazy, I tell you. If the guy who told us to repack (notice that I didn’t use the word ASKED but used TOLD instead) had said so nicely, I’d have done it willingly. =

Oh well.. Gd thing I found a new cardboard box (unused) nearby, finally can sit on the floor to do the REpacking.

You know what, the whole day, I felt like I was back in TP, those days in Community Service Club. Met ShuFen (same name but different person lah.. hahaa.. so I used CAPS F to do the differentiation), Dennis, Celine, Hock Chuan. It’s just like those times when we were in the committee organising CS events. Those were the days man! Missed those days!

REpacking was finally done at 5pm. Leaving the sorting of boxes to the various beneficiaries to the committee, me & Shufen left to do some walk-around @ Heartland Mall, being her first time @ Kovan.

It just feels great to have friends doing voluntary work with you! It really is hard to find friends with the same interest. Oh when will our next voluntary work be? =D

Ahhh just how my butt is aching now! Can’t sit properly! =

Who says I’m leaving my job? I love it so much! Does my previous entries sound so pessimistic? boo!

Came back from Transformers!! Thank you my co for organising this outing! ‘Coz there were extra tickets, I had my group of frens to watch with me! Hope you guys had a great time watching the show! =D

I shall declare I love Transformers the movie. The animations are just so cool! The good robots are just so cool lah! Their voices also sound very manly. *rofl*

Eyes tired. Shall sleep early tonight for a change. =)

To avoid having uneven tan.

See the boxes? Meant to block out the sun.  Else the sun would have covered my whole hand.

Thankfully, I’m changing seat tomorrow!

 

What I have opened for the whole day:
– 5 windows of yahoo map
– cbox
– twitter

How cool. LOL.

Can see that I’m bored. = Busy but still bored.

OMG She’s GOOD for a 6-yr old!
