Aching heart (over my watch)

Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

Arghhh,
I’m very suay these days!! I got a Chomel watch for my Bday and it sucks!! I
loved the watch, really really loved it. That is.. until it spoiled after an
hour of wearing it. Am I jinxed or wat?

 

I called up the branch at Wisma and reserved 1 piece for
exchange. Guess wat? The 1 good piece they have is not good at all. One of the
pins (design) in the face of the watch was skewed. I had no choice but to take
that coz the rest were worse. Either the pins skewed even more terribly, or the
crystals surrounding the face have fallen off. Sucks. If Chomel cannot make
watches, DON’T. The same goes to DKNY (water vapour condenses on the inside of
the watch; not suppose to happen. It’s suppose to be a vacuum in there!). One
word: SUCKS.

 

So anyway I got the new flawed piece. I realised today
that 1 of the crystals at the side was coming off so I fiddled it with my
fingernail. To my horror, it became white coz I think maybe I scratched the
coat of varnish or polish, whatever u call it. Argh!!! Sobs. After that I
couldn’t eat, I cannot watch tv; basically i cannot do anything without
thinking about it. My heart aches. ACHES!!

 

Book review

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

I read the book “puffball”. Well.. I didn’t exactly finish
it, coz I only seriously read a third of it. However, I already knew the ending
coz I skimmed through the remaining two thirds.

 

Basically it sums up to 3 main couples who are all à
unfaithful. The things I cannot stand, and are always repeated in the book are
infidelity, betrayal and promiscuity! (ok ya, it’s the same thing, lol) Perhaps
the characters never came across the words faithful and self-control.

 

The book is bad bad bad! It totally polluted my already pessimistic
mind on relationships! Normally when you read a book on unfaithful couples,
things would work out nicely and positive, but this book is different. There
were sooo many twists and turns that they kept getting worst! Affairs, affairs,
affairs! With friends, neighbours, colleagues.. yak! But if you’re the type who
loves this kind of thing, go ahead and borrow the book.

 

Oh, it also had many MANY sex scenes; however, it’s only
described vaguely. Sex on the porch, sex on the backyard, sex in the office and
many MANY more. If u’re the type who loves to read this kind of thing, maybe
the book is your cup of tea too!

 

(ops, ya I guess I managed to make you feel like a pervert
if u’re thinking of picking up the book from the library kekeke. But seriously,
it’s not such a great book. That is also why the author and publication company is not written =))

Tuition stuff

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

First off –> I started my
first day of tuition on a new assignment. The tuition coordinator was rather
unpleasant. She was really skeptical of me, my ability to tutor.. like I’m
going to screw up her assignment lidat.

The negotiation was
more like interrogating. Her tone was challenging, and the way she put it, made
me feel as though only scholars are eligible for her assignment. Anyway at
the end of the conversation I told her, " if u have no confidence in me,
or if the parents have no confidence in me, then I think u better pass the
assignment to some other tutor”. Her reply was, “zzzz” no reply.

That old woman.. I felt like
sending her my pass experiences.

Worse of all, after
arranging and confirming, she realized my name was EDNA and she became
suspicious of whether I was Singaporean. Come on! After confirmation! Anyway I
told her I AM SINGAPOREAN but she kept asking me again and again, like I would
say I’m not if she asks a few more times. I had the urge to say “YA LA, YA LA,
MADE IN SINGAPORE” but of course I didn’t.

*roll eyes*

The night before the
tuition commence, she gave me a briefing on how to teach. And later, she gave
me directions to how to get to the place. It was really nice, except that the
directions were from how to get there, from HER place. But nvm, I tot it was
really sweet until she railed at me. She told me the tutee’s address and said
it was opposite the JIAO TANG. She insisted that I have the address repeated to
her (she didn’t trust that I took it down, prob because I wrote a little
faster). When I told her it was opposite the CHURCH, she screamed on the phone,
“NO LAH, WHAT CHURCH. IT IS THE MOS-KEY, MOS-KEYYY!!” ok she meant mosque.

2ndly –> I was
on my way there today when she told me last min the tuition is off coz the
tutee couldn’t make it home in time. I took the train back. When I reached Choa
Chu Kang, she msged to ask me to go back. She sent me 2 smses. The 2nd
1 all in UPPER CASING. Apparently the student was back. So again, I travelled
back. The student was by the way, just the type of student I loved tutoring,
kekeke. So the trip to and fro x2 was ok.

On my way there, my EZ link
fell out of my back pocket which is the 1st since I ever got an EZ
link. Fortunately, some1 saw it and returned it to me. My knight in shiny
armour actually made the afford to break into a light jog, so as to caught up
with me Aww.. so nice! That tan (malay guy), big.. o no, huge is a better word.
Huge knight with bulging tummy, saggy limps with a face full of… sweat and
oil.. Nonetheless, I was really grateful to him. I wished I thanked him more
than just.. once. =( seriously, I’m really grateful.

 

to do with fingers

Thursday, July 12th, 2007

I was walking towards the train station to catch the train back when suddenly some1’s fingers (from behind) caught onto mine. No, it didnt belong to any1 I noe, and no, it didnt belong to any exotic stranger. It was a girl’s, a girl in her late teens or early twenties.

She’s not mad or anything, it’s just that when we walked, we swing our arms along our sides and somehow, hers and mine got caught together for a split second.

When I was walking home after the ride, it happened again! this time it belonged to a guy.. I didnt get a glimpse of the guy coz I cant be bothered to look at his face, but I suspect he’s an old man. =(
