A short message is more than anything to end your day perfectly!
"
Hey better go back. Don't be a workaholic. Leave it till mon. Pls hor"
"
Don't play ur laptop hor or tom u snore in class ha. Rest well! Nite"
it's like, so sweet =)
But facing reality. It's just a message, cannot read too in depth. =p
Gotten thru the test, next up is phone interview. Somemore, colleagues got contact, can actually straight through interview. But I'm like goin thru the long and conventional means.
But but but, did i mention that i suddenly do not want to leave? a lot of reasons... what if i really got it? things happened at the most unexpected times...
Haiz...

Oh the test. It's a screening test (verbal and numerical) for entry to RBS. It is very similar to UBS's. But I had such a stressful 50min. Stole lunch time to do it cos today was the due date. And my soon-to-be-ex-colleague cum soon-to-be-RBS-employee actually helped in it. Unfortunately, left 2-3 min for the last 2 questions, team head walked over to my desk and wanted to discuss sth...KAOZ... almost could hav get the questions all done.
actually the drive to leave, and the drive to stay are balancing each other now....tat ultimately leaves me to nowhere! =(
but i noe at least, i'll stay till at least may... cos of the mid-year outing... cruise!!! sorry i'm sua gu can, nv been to cruise. And I can probably be on board with the man of my dream. haha yes dream on..
back on track. i feel tat i'm starting to treat my team head so much differently, ever since..it's only recently. and somehow can feel tat she got the hint and is not gg to push me tat much.. yeah i'm slowly crawling over her. tat's bad i noe, but couldn't be letting her to manipulate me ba..
on the other hand, she's really quite a sad case. cos everybody, esp those leaving, have left, been pointing a lot of fingers at her. Sometimes I don't really feel that she's that bad. i dun mean wat others said aren't true, but she oso has her better side? haiz...
1:43:00 AM
wat am i doing here this late? cos I've just gotten a new lappie =) yeah!!.. but it's wide screen, damn, everything become short and stout now, esp photos... must consult some experts abt it.
and of cos, i reached home late, hence the lateness here as well... haiz
another to throw letter tml!!!... will my turn ever come? haiz...
"我岳母今天有煮，所以她要回家吃。"
How's this line?
He said it when the rest were asking if i want to have dinner =p
hahaha.. afterall it's meant to be a form of entertainment! =(
And to my astonishment, I only realise that he's a christian today. *thunder*lightning*.. but at least he's not the too extreme kind.
eh, actually it doesn't matter =p
time to sleep!!! facing a big test tml. If i did it, shall blog again tml about it...ZZZZZzzzzzzZZZz

my mind is full of today tat i can't rem ytd... is tat gd or bad?
a day can be full of ups and downs. i like, of cos when it's up =) and don't like it when it's down =(
no he doesn't hav the other half *smileys* but obviously he will nv be interested in me. woman's instinct. =(
we walked tog for tea break =p, but it's not really our tea break, we went to buy food and drinks for the rest for tea break. tat was enough =)
and so much more... =p
but still woman's instinct is always so right....
got an ipod shuffle today!! cos UBS reached its target faster than it set its timeline to be. Yes, UBS is the place to work, but not the Sec Ops. so beware of where u wan to step in.
home sweet home!

Girls date out.
Finally met up with nijun,huijun,yali.
Enjoyed our dinner @ Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant @ Vivo. This place is highly recommended! The specialty, pork knuckle, yum yum. And as the sun is setting, they open up to alfresco, great to chill out with some german beer there. Price wise, very reasonable. Service, thumbs up, great staffs there. Then we decided to change venue for the desserts. I never know Bakerzin has such great desserts. I'm loving its waffles ice cream! I want more.
Pics are all found on the
same dated blog @
http://purplish-shades-of-life.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.htmlYesterday was limge's last day with us. We planned a treaure hunt around the office for him to get his 'prizes'.It was kinda of a great success and again he released his
童真 showing how happy he was with the prizes!
Lunch his treat, due to his reasoning of "I don't always get to leave the bank".
Dinner, down to the 4 of us + limge's wifey (yes his wife, pls refer to the pic a few posts ago). Hitching on his xiaobai, i was introduced to this place called Blooies Restaurant and Pub at Siglap. I enjoyed it man! First time i ate cajun based food with real cajun taste. And they had a special breading for calamari, mushroom.. can check this out
http://www.blooies.comEverybody is telling me to quickly find a new job and go. Now I'm having second (it's actually the third or the fourth oredi) thoughts again. Just because of... wat issit tat i wanna say... haiz... nvm
I spent some time today in Page One, the bookshop at vivo, and read some zodiac books (of course on aquarius), one said, in work, if face with challenges, i will easily run away from them. why not stay on and keep a lookout on the progress?
it's at this point in time that i really need this kind of advice.
Recently, I found myself kinda of attracted to a ravishing, charming person. I even feel that I started to talk like this person. That's scary! He influences me too much! But people are just saying that he's not good enough for me. Hmm.. anw it doesn't matter cos he seems to have his own other half oredi. If that's really the case, forget it den!
Maybe it's time to know someone called brian/bryan, the someone that i dunno.

Mon-work
Tue-work + a visit to job agency
Wed-work + reject an European working hr interview
Thur-work
Fri-work + partying
Sat-SOTC, consider back to sch time =p
Yes, i'm in search of a new job. so is everybody. haiz. just because of poor mgmt and bosses, we have to resort doing this. but i rather we all stay and they leave. this is just one of the many reasons that i wanted to leave. like i told tyw before, i like my job nature. i still enjoy wat i'm doing tat is if everybody has their fair share of work. but apparently not, and a large knowledge gap among everybody. no proper handovers or trainings, how can a large team function effectively? we are not given the time and resources, it's not our fault. mgmt always cannot only vision what they want and not what is impossible in reality.
So, pls give me a call if you chance upon any vacancy, pls let me know!
Fri nite aka UBS Black Secrets Night. Sounds mysterious? well, if you still can't get it, it's a night for the singles to mingle and meet new people and the dress code is simply Black. Held at Velvet underground 10 bucks, no-show 60 bucks, freeflow of drinks and finger food. So I got to knock off early for the first time like 6.50pm... took kuax's xiaohei (a chio black mazda rx 8) with yy and met the other 3 there. there were games, yy danced! first time i saw tis ger dancing haha. and the 2 of us were soooo...she kept drinking her fave white wine, and me, kept drinking vodka orange plus the food...finally before the free flow was gg to stop, both of us had 2 tequila shots...and both of us were so dead. actually i was still sensible and awake. ok shall stop here, u prob dun wan to ask yy how was tat nite cos i doubt she'll rem a single thing haha...ask me better. the night was young, but i missed it! poor purpur and nana gotta take care of us. the 2nd time i got so drunk, it's worser than the previous time, i dun wan to get drunk anymore!!!

These are the reason that made me love my working life.
Tuesday, March 06, 2007 @ 11:28:00 PM
my life is dull now that i need a natural disaster to spice it up.
yes, i'm talking bout the talk of the town today, the slight tremor brought by the earthquake in indonesia.
nobody's initial thought could be an earthquake.
and mine? "i'm really sick that i'm so giddy"
and i tried to stay still to stabilize myself. then to find out that it's the building that was shaking. since it's near lunch time @ the first tremor, all were chased to go for lunch break...the next moment when we were back in office again, another tremor came. there was no evacuation at all @ suntec. but a lot of ppl did evacuate themselves. just from the window by my left, i could see the swarm of ppl 14 levels below me.
what if it was really an earthquake, not just a tremor?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~luckily YY is around, otherwise, i think i'll hav no one to discuss abt ppl like qinlei etc...and they will prob be forgotten haha.
all i wish for now is a healthy body and a better offer to come along or a better tomorrow =p

everyone would like to be in control of their own life. but how many really actually are in full control of their own life? at least i don't think i am. my life is controlled by its surroundings, by the society, by the environment. not by choice. decisions that i make are also decided by the same external factors. tis kinda of life is tiring. =p
changes are constantly happening. i hope the new change will really bring me the work life balance. i have no life since the start of StaRR and y the hell was i put into a proj tat lasted eternity? the strat now: handover everything i can, so if D-Day comes, it'll save all the work.
but somehow i see a future there. bleak future =p it's again not up to me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~i was told of this: Mediacorp
七公主Let's see..
look out on these uprising stars who will be the next Zoe & Fann =p
Friday, March 02, 2007 @ 12:06:00 AM
i can't make a decision. some thoughts need to be sorted. am i game for it? i really dunno. should i try sth out first? should i disappoint...whoever that i'll disappoint? should i seek the way through with the rest?
it's ironic, but i have always been loving static. =p
i tink my whole life will be back in ops.
suddenly i dun wan a change.
great dinner (i mean the food and the table ppl) tonight @ wat Singapore island club. it's meant to be a CNY dinner, of course lao yu sheng...the messiest one i ever had...stunned lor...no luck with the lucky draw =p
first nite since dunno when i'm home soooo early =p
