I found out that it is really not easy to be an office lady. And to be frank, i am not those who likes to doll up myself, so i find dressing to work a real hassle. Still, i managed to dress in the most casual office wear you can ever imagine. Haha...
I must say, i really kind of miss the time in ITS, working shift and all. Now the straight hours 9-6 is making me very tired. Well, of cos there are times when i knock off real early like 1pm?? and there are also time where i worked til 10 at night, with no ot pay!!!
I have been working till almost 10 recently and i am beginning to feel my body giving up. I cant concentrate whenever i am off work, which makes it difficult to meet up with my frens and monster.
Unknowingly, i let myself get caught in the politics between the management and the sales ppl. My boss wants me to move up and manage the sales ppl, while my VP wants me to stay put and wants the sales ppl to move down. I seriously cant be bothered if i move up or down, bcos either way that means i have more workload. My boss promised a pay rise.
But you see, the problem is that, at my current state, i cant even finish the things on my hand. I know i got to streamline the work flow. But, i just do not have the time. Monster said that its good that my boss think highly of me, cos i just joined a bare 4 mths.
This 4 mths really made me so tired.. There is no one who can take over my job if i am away. So thats why they gave me a laptop, to bring the work home to do.. -_- damn.. even on holidays and weekends, i had to spare out some time to clear emails and attend to important matters. It is not a good feeling.
Just wondering who long can i do this... haha..
On a side note, this year is the first Valentine's day for monster and me!! Nothing to be excited about, except the fact that i am so happy that he shared the same view as me abt this day. So we didnt get anything for each other nor did we waste our money on some expensive restaurant. Its just the two of us spending quality time together.
It started the night before when i went over his place. As usual, he just likes to tell me whatever he was thinking. So there he goes, ranting about how he wanted to give me a surprise, buying roses for me and bringing it to the bus stop that i always alights. So the key point is, he "wanted" Well, since he didnt, i told him not to. Bcos the flowers are unbelievably expensive that day.
We went to the supermarket to shop for some groceries and while paying, he disappeared. No need to guess, yes, he went to get one stalk of white rose for me. Haha.. Although it was nothing special, but i was very happy and i felt his heart. He told me that every girl deserves to get at least a stalk of flower on v day. Just a small gesture warmed my heart.
I dont know.. Mayb it could be because its him.. I have guys spending alot of money on me before, buying things i like, etc. But i really do not need all these. I can afford to buy whatever i want, i just need to feel that you care and thats enough. And i am proud to say that, my monster did the bare minimum which means i made the right choice. haha.
So the next day, he was on standby as it was valentine's day, all his colleagues were busy. So he went to attent a case in the morning after which he brought me to eat my fav lor mee!!!!! haha.. I have been craving for weeks, so i begged him to bring me there on valentine's day. Ha.. We brought some home for his family and spent the rest of day slacking at home. We talked and watched movies.
At night, was out at boiler partying with our frens. Its been such a long time since i partied. Wasnt very keen on going, as i didnt want to waste my money on such activities anymore, but since everyone's going, we went. They spinned r&b and retro. The retro was so much better than zouk. Every wed is retro night at boiler. So ppl... please head down to boiler if you enjoy retro.. haha.. and i realised, i still love dancing after all. I missed dancing and i so wanted to get into a dance school, but its just a dream...
went back his place and the white rose was blooming really nicely. It was so beautiful that i couldnt stop touching and commenting about it.
And so it is.. our valentine's day.. simple and nice...
oh.. recently, i spotted a coin purse and a bag from Loewe that i absolutely love!!! I showed the girls yesterday and they all said that it is very nice.. Monster is trying to get me to change my mind.. cos its not very cheap. Haha.... I am still thinking.. lol..
and, i just want to say this.. I am disappointed with LV... i went into their shop and i found out that their standard dropped! Their leather is no longer like last time and is no where compared to Loewe's and Chanel's. I wanted to get the speedy bag, but decided to drop it as it turned out to be quite ugly...
So i will still stick to my fav.. loewe.. =))
