Getting off on the wrong side of the bed
Well... Technically my bed has only one side, but today felt like a really bad day. :(
I couldn't sleep last night.. I guess it was probably due to the fact I only got up in the afternoon yesterday. I kept having those thoughts that you normally have when u feel so lost you just don't really know what you're doing with your life.. Where you doubt everything that you've ever known before and wonder what your sorry existence is for. Many emo thoughts.. I haven't been having them that often but when they do happen it really feels like the end of the world. =/
So I think I finally fell asleep at 4am. Come 5am, there is this incessant ringing and ringing and ringing. ohmygod my head felt like it was going to burst! Of course i knew who it was.. My 2 german friends (actually my sister's friends but they become mine too haha) who are staying with us for 2 days. They got the wrong key from my mum so they couldn't open the door!
I silently willed my sister to go open the door. I was so tired..
But the ringing just wouldn't stop and I finally became concious enough to remember my sister sleeps like the dead. The ringing wouldn't affect her at all.
So I dragged myself out of bed to open the door for them then scramble back into bed. Unfortunately sleep seemed out of reach for me again..
Then next thing I knew, I jolted awake with that feeling that something was wrong. the time was 10.20am. I was horrified! Barely 6 weeks of work and i'm like 1hr 30mins late!!!
Gosh everything from there just kinda went downhill and I was kind of in a state of depression/stress/worry.
I'm so glad to finally be home in the comfort of my room. Going to wash up and crash after this..
I really hope tmr will be a better day. (:

CNY Reunion Lunch
LOL I know I posted an entry on Reunion Dinner some time back, but I have SO MANY photos to upload. I don't have time to blog about them as I wait impatiently for the photos to upload. Hugs backlog of entries lol.
For 4 days. I was an only child.
Never have I missed my sisters more before.. Suddenly all my parents' attention was focused on me. Shan't say more.. Needless to say, it was a very painful four days for me. Jie if you see this, I sincerely hope/pray you don't fly anywhere anytime soon until mei gets back. LOL
Anyway, Reunion Lunch with mum's side of the family has always been a big affair.. Sort of. All the uncles and aunties and the little cousins (not so little anymore) would gather and we would catch up on all sort of random things. It's also a time where I see all my cousins wear the things I picked out for them last christmas heehee. So glad they like it..
This year it was held at Peramakan Restaurant at Keppel Club. In my opinion, I think the food was awful and I have no idea why mum loves that place so much. =/

XLB buffet with Eric!
I had a really sian day today.
I had double the normal amt of trades for scanning today. Means double the posting, double the emails, double everything. That on top of my daily work, there's not enough time to make it on time to my dinner. So I was in a perpetual state of stress all day. Kept telling myself hurrr hurry hurry!!
As I was leaving the office, Eric kept calling me. First, he said xlb buffet only starts at 10. I said that's not possible. They told me there are 3 timings! There should be one at 7-ish. Then he called me back, he said yeah got buffet but it's steamboat only. And i'm like.. No I'm pretty sure that there's xlb, check again. Third time, (he got it right this time) yes it's both steamboat and xlb, but it's fully booked.
SIAN TTM.
I had been looking forward to eating my favourite Crystal Jade xlbs all week!! Plus this was a meal I felt I owed Eric. He's like one of my awesomest friends for the past year and like he gave me a treat when he first started working too.
So anw the third time he called me back, he said that it's fully booked, but we can wait until the 10mins after it has started to see if anyone cancelled their reservation. Since he alr got us on the waiting list, I said ok.
So first I was sian coz of the huge volume of work today (and probably my low efficiency). Then now I find out our buffet that we have been looking forward to may be cancelled.
As if i was not sian enough alr, this stupid auntie tried to cut my queue at the mrt gantry. I was in no mood to be bullied, so I didn't let her. And then she went "oh god!" with a very self righteous aggreived tone.. As though I was the one at fault! That really pissed me off.. I mean she's the moron who wants to cut my queue then acts like i'm the bad guy.
Before I can finish fuming about this woman, I receive and sms from dad. He said "Which one of you got a parking fine @ 12.13am 5th feb @ (...) tiong bahru"
My first reaction was to break out in cold sweat and my heart filled with dread. I'm like shit shit shit was it me? How come i don't know about it? What was I doing on the 4th? How come I was in Tiong Bahru area? And then it hit me.. I'm 24 this year! What do I have to be scared of??? Why is my first reaction fear when I see an sms like this? I know in the past it meant caning.. But now I need to wake up and realise I don't need to fear my parents meting out punishments to me. Acknowledge it (if it's mine) and then move on...
It wasn't me btw.
So one sian thing after another. It would have been the icing on the cake if they told me that they were full and they couldn't slot 2 of us for the buffet.
My Favourites are the beef and pork!
