So yeah the week goes on and on...and lo and behold its friday tomorrow.
bleah.
it's an interestin place to work. place as in raffles place. lotsa different sights and sounds. at 12pm exactly loud music will start booming or some deejay or emcee will start talking and all creatin a lively aatmosphere. And even on the 20th floor staring right at my 14 inch cRT screen...i know its almost time for lunch. it perks me up a little now that i dont have coffee in the mornings.
Sights.
what a sight. an old lady starts pushing her cart across the busy roads...a few office ladies in short skirts walk pass and the old men sitting at the grass patch will turn their heads.
"hi! long time no see blah blah blah" its not hard to bump into a friend here. friends, cousin. exclassmates and all.
i stepped out of my lift today to bump into my old friend. and acjc choir carolling at my lobby. what gives.
Sounds.
honks are nothing new here. speeding cars horning at every damn opportunity they get. perhaps that adds to the atmosphere of this business district. Walking along robinson's road aha MPH. many people in here browsing at magazines to kill time. i like to pick Neil Humprhey's books cos he writes like i talk. its like we're speaking the same language. boo. and then life goes on its 2pm. Free afternoon edition of Today.
who cares. i dont even have time to read it.
Back to the office like other workers as we wait impatiently for the lift to "Ding" that can be a chore...especially when you don know anyone else at the lift lobby. Body language can be well seen here. people getting fidgetty, taking out foen to sms or pretending to push a few buttons...occasionally some idiot pressing the up button when its obviously presed and brightly lit in its incospicuous shade of Blue.
aha. life goes on.
we had a gift exchange thingy going on. aha.
i my secretary picked me...and i got a pretty decent lokign shirt.
she asked me M you can wear right.
To which i said yeah sure..with my tummy bulging out.
no la you so skinny.
i swear she's gonna get a big fat bonus.
oh. i am like pretty looking forward to xmas.cos my comp is closing on the 26th...which lets me have a 4 day break. how cool is that.
2nd jan. not confirmed. its like a 30% thingy..might be closed might be opened lkinda thing.
and once i start hitting ctrl+alt+del to key in my ever familiar password i know the day is going to turn real boring. facing the music is a must in this job. kena left right centre up down....no maybe not down. havent got screwed that bad yet.
bleah. hi weekends.
