it's july!!where does the time fly to? n not exactly as though i have been having fun..

i have had to move out of grandma's place..dun really want to go into details here...but suffice to say it was pretty ugly..basically, an auntie resented our presence there (for dunnoe wat reason). she specially flew back from the us just to make known her displeasure..but what really got my goat was that she had been tracking our misdeeds while overseas via "updates" from the maid...so when she was here for 2 weeks..she managed to details down all her observations and came up with a convoluted theory that because the maid is "overworked", she may not have time to take care of grandma...so the "two young healthy adults" should do their own chores and let the maid rest and watch grandma full time..

so essentially, cos i work late...i now have to wash my own dishes while she watches tv with grandma..i now have to make my breakfast cos if the maid makes breakfast downstairs..grandma might wake up and slip while walking..

i agree that the grandma should be the priority..but the way a relative can spy and bring up all these things during a family conference is ridiculous..not to mention that i am paying for the maid as well and that she doesn't do much for us other than prepare dinner and wash the clothes?why should i have to watch my behaviour for something a maid should be doing in the first place??

WTF???? and they say singaporeans are maid abusers...the bitch is probably laughing right now while watching tv and napping in the afternoon..

so anyway..after the discussion, i was pretty sure that the agenda was to get us out of the house regardless...so now stayin at my father in law's other place..not bad place..kinda ulu..but we will get used to it..and at least i dun have a maid reporting my behaviour to her higher ups in the US...sheesh..

kinda busy now as well with the course..studying is tough!!! chick at SMU are hot though...sigh..the wonders of youth and skimpy shorts..haha..dun let the wife know..
Current Mood:
busy busy

i have not been updating this blog...bad dog..=)

i'm married!! staying in granny's place as we speak..things are better now that cable and internet is up..but i want my own place!!hope the gahmen can faster build the new place..

things are more stable at work..there is still tat fear of cos pervading every bank, but considering i'm the only product manager around...i shd be relatively safe cos there is enough work for me...

THE NEW GAL SUXS...BEST OF BOTH WORLD..BAD ATTITUDE AND NO SKILLS TO SPEAK OF...i am not joking when i say having her around is just like having a negative..

on a brighter note, i need to get new clothes, there are stains on my shirt, and they are not washable...=(

no more cut backs pls!!

quite a few potential changes..and i'm not too excited about all of them..

my boss is leaving at the end of the year to join another dept..suffice to say..i'm not too happy with that, what with the fact she has been the major reason why i have stayed as long as i did..

but i'm not too keen to move this year as well..what with the wedding and other changes, i do no want too many changes this year..

my new "potential" boss is in..i say potential cos he is on a six month contract...and he will be my boss subject to him agreeing to stay..i have no idea what kind of arrangement this is..and it does nothing for morale..

i mean..come on..this is not exactly helping matters..i mean..i have to treat him as my potential new boss...but at the same time i still have to see if he wants to take up the offer? and where does that leave us if he decides he does not want to take it up?i have to treat him like my new boss even though he may not be my new boss?

and if he decides not to stay, does that mean my old boss stays?

sigh..so many variables..on top of the daily crap i call work everyday..i dun really want to leave..but i feel i have to..

crys has been really supportive..everyday has just been a day of work and stress..oh..did i mention that my team is down by 50% these 2 weeks?

i worry and sigh too much now..

i really enjoy the harold and kumar movie, it was crass and vulgar and everything i expected from a low brow comedy.

coming out of the cinema with crystal, i realised what was even more funny, my sis had inadverdently given my parent vouchers to see the same show.i have no idea how my parents stomached the kind of humour i found so amusing..

* * *
been a while..nothing much to update...wedding preparations abt 30-40%, at least i have paid for most of the big ticket items..

work is fine, hectic but still enjoying certain aspects of it..cleared up some misunderstandings with boss so things are good there as well..the only part are the looonnnggg hours...have a new colleague and hopefully that will lessen my workload..

goin diving this weekend..woo hoo!!need the break desperately..

today i received rather disturbing news..my boss, whom i always thought the world of, appears to have applied for a transfer to another team...now, what so disturbing about this? this was the same boss who resorted to emotional blackmail tactics to prevent me from leaving..

she has been hinting that things will change and that she might move, but we always just assumed that it would be a forced move by the big boss. Now that it appears that she initiated the move, and the feeling of being betrayed really stings...add to that the fact that i had to find out from someone else and not from her..

can't believe i used to respect her so much..even more tempted to leave now...esp when i have a fair inkling who will be replacing her..but have to hang in there until april..

as jam would say it..smile and take it up the ass for the next 3 months...

oh yeah...happy 2008!!
