being so distant away from home makes me feel dejected at times... i try hard to talk to my friends in singapore often, but these days whenever i reach home i often feel too tired, or i'm busy with household chores and i seldom have the time to talk to these people in depth... it's not only the first month into me being in foreign lands, and i already feel like giving up trying to remain connected to the friends i left behind...
i fell sick yesterday... had a sore throat and slight fever, but luckily i drank loads of water, orange juice, and took panadol, so today i'm better... or maybe the red wine i drank yesterday at the annual dinner made me feel better...? i don't know haha! but at one point in time when i was stoning on the bus, i had this strange and weird thought : what if i were to die alone in a foreign land? opps that felt so sad man... then i was laughing at my plight... dots. sorry lars u guys have to forgive me... i was trying so hrad to entertain myself...
i feel like such a good girl these days... everyday i wake up at around 530am... wash up eat breakfast, get out of the house at 6.40am, reach company at (the earliest) 720am... else like today i reached on the dot... 8am... shanghai transport seriously is crazy... work work~ until knock off... official timing is 4.45pm, but we usually drag a little trying to wait for each other to finish up our work... then i'll try my best to rush home, earliest at around 6pm... and then wait for the rest of my housemates to reach home so that we can settle dinner together... after that it's tv time, bathe time... applying moisturiser and conditioner and then i go sleep at 10pm (i try ^^) omg. so no life...
but i'm not complaining about my life here that much... it's fun here working in my company... my supervisor is damn zai, and i dunno y he feels like my dad... ? maybe cos both of them are engineers... i kind of chong2 bai4 my supervisor cos he's very sharp and decisive and settles things damn fast... and he's very precise with his words... and his english is not bad! and he's a nice guy. wait why am i singing his praises on my blog. dots... but i'm really happy working on the projects he gave me... i dunno y hahaha~ 1 is to develop a web application for a maintenance records database... at first i thought it shouldn't be too tough, but as more and more requirements come in... i don't think i can complete it in the 3 weeks i originally set it to be... =X but it's really fun... i learn alot about programming imo =) maybe this is one of the reasons why i like my supervisor a lot =)
yesterday i had my company's annual dinner! food was... a lot. it seems like company dinners always involve a lot of food... and alcohol... i drank a little bit of wine... though i could have rejected probably... take it as warm up for my crazy housemates who wanted to chiong martel tonight... heng they decided to push back ah... gives me more time to think of excuses to siam from drinking.. opps! but at the dinner we had quite a lot of "free gift"... had 3 slabs(?) of different types of nian2 gao1... there's red bean, 5 treasures... and the last one i have yet to check haha! then there was this really nice guy who gave us a huge box of chocolates each.. that costs like 100rmb! wah i felt shou4 chong3 ruo4 jing1... but i dun really eat chocolate, so this means they're going to my housemates haha!
performed kit chan's home at the dinner yesterday... felt quite good... cos i haven't sang for like... 2 weeks? opps. last time at home can sing whenever i like... now when i'm here i have to be more conscious... cannot sing as and when i like... even music... i don't dare to on my speakers... so i'm usually musicless... and it's painful for me cos i'm someone who needs music to survive probably... =X but luckily today on my way home i managed to listen to my mp3... and right now no one's in the living room now, so i on my speakers and i'm listening to fahrenheit's new album... well, not all their songs are "wow"~ but some are not bad... gotta give them credit for the hard work they put in =)
to my friends who were waiting for my email replies, i'm sorry i was really busy this week and so my replies are kind of delayed... erms pansy i'll email you once i think of how to solve the maths problem... i don't know why my brain probably froze here cos of the constant wind in shanghai, but that's besides the point... i hope i can get enough rest and personal time this weekend... so that i can do the stuff i need to do... next week is 9 straight working days waiting for me... i'm working on sat and sun too! omg. >.<
alrighty, time to hit my pillows =) hope i can come back to post a little more frequently (that is if the connection decides to be stable enough for me to even enter blogger site ^^)
seriously... shanghai air is waayyyy too polluted... =(
