Looooong Break, Short Update

Sorry for the long hiatus..it's mid-Aug now, and this is only my first entry of the month. I've been neglecting this blog for quite awhile :( I'm such a slacker. Heh..

Well I would have loved to blog often, but there have been many distractions keeping me away. Before I go on further, I must forewarn you of the incoherent me. I'm a little tired by this time these days. Alritey, I've been minding my own business of course, but sometimes, things just happen around you and you can't very well stay out of its way right, if you know what I mean.

Hmm coming to think of it, I could very well come up with a ranking or something, to sort of list the top happenings around me now. Yep let's do that. Yah I know how uninteresting my life can be, that you may even be wondering why I even bother doing a ranking. Though my "ranking" will be a short list. Heh. Don't care.

1. Isabel has quit her job

Well things between her and boss and Eve aren't exactly pleasant now. They seemed like they have turned loggerheads now. To summarise, Boss feels that Isa hasn't been putting in sufficient effort, while Isa feels that boss hasn't been understanding enough. A matter of perspectives I guess, but who am I to say anything. The last thing I want is for the team to split, but if it has come to this point, then the least I hope for, is an amicable split, which well..by the looks of it, isn't really going to happen. On surface, things are cordial...but too unnaturally cordial. There are a lot of underlying tensions, and Eve certainly isn't helping much at times when she fans the fire or adds oil. Sigh. Interviews are ongoing for the next junior, but well, it's either that Boss doesn't seem to have the sense of urgency about it, or that there aren't enough good applicants. Whatever it is, Sophia is feeling the heat and stress.

2. My bro's ROM

1 December 2007 will be the date. Last month was actually a turbulent/traumatising time for him and the family. The gf actually asked for a break, and said that there was a third party. Understandably, my bro was upset about it. Anyways, to cut the long story short, they were back together three days later. She said that she was "only testing him". -.- Sigh. How true? I dunno. Should I believe? I also dunno. My bro he does, wholeheartedly. My sis, myself, my parents...we don't know how/what to make out of the mess. Then he purportedly got very 'on' about ROM-ing, wanting to fix a date and stuff like that. To be fair, well, they had been trying to ballot for a HDB Q number, and they did talk about ROM since last year alredy. It's just that this scare has gotten him on his toes, all-ready to act on it now. Well...being my bro, of coz I wish him the best, hope for the best. Just that my sis n myself dunno how to face the gf still.

My bro asked me to be his MC cum photographer on his ROM day (Comes with my job). Heh...Well I told him I don't mind doing it of course, if I were in Spore that is. You see, NTU's exams will be held in November, and is scheduled to end by 1 Dec. My intention is to fly out to Cairns once my papers are over, and this may stretch beyond 1 Dec. Esp say, my last paper is on 25Nov or something. But because I don't have my confirmed exam dates as yet, so I can't say yes or no to him too. Oh well...we'll see. If I can help it, I won't want to miss it too. But hmm...I missed my 2nd sis' ROM...coz I was having lessons on that day (uni that time). Haa.

3. School Starts!

Yep, school has started. I've been attending classes for the last 3 weeks le. The stress and pressure of co-handling school and work is no joke. I've got so much readings to complete for just two miserly modules loh. Doesn't sound alot, but coupled with a day job...you know what I mean. Day in, day out, school assignments, projects and term papers are always on my mind, and they are driving me crazy soon. The fear of not knowing what/how to do, the anxiety of not doing a good job...Haiz. Like Tricia said, sometimes I wonder what I've got myself into..haha..but well, I'm NOT regretting, and I'm certainly not about to make myself go there. I know this is what I want for myself; I hope I will stop being lazy. Haa...And you know what that means...I haven't been shopping, my life is down to a rather low-low. Sigh. I'm not a happy girl now. Haha..

Aiyoh k lah, I shall stop this for now..This short post has actually took me so many days to compose; writing a little and saving each bit everyday. Finally it gets to see the light of the day -.- Yeah I'm lazy...Correction, I'm busy *grin*
