the bitch in me
i realise that im quite schizoprenic at work. i can be real cheery one moment and the next, raising my voice like a banshee - it just depends on the other party im dealing with. had some buggers who sounded like complain queens. but i had my fair share of "mood-savers", including strangers who can make me laugh.
my job isnt easy. but what i like about it is that it really puts my patience to the test, as well as finding ways to "trap" liars in their web of lies. also, it's somewhat like a combi of customer service and taxation. i was only thought to handle personal tax matters at first but lately, ive been dealing with partnership and even corporate cases just to learn more. besides, my supervisor is keen to teach.
i had lunch with rachel on thurs before she flew to europe. lunch was at united square's pastamania. we share this buddy meal thingi which came with some banana pizza desert. funny thing was, as the waitress laid the plate of pizza on the table, the pizza just slid off and fell on the table. i was shocked. we were speechless for like two seconds. then the waitress asked, "um, do you want me to get you a new one"? so retarded!
"yes please" i heard myself say. i know that may make me sound like a fussy pot but hey... gawd knows what's on the table yeah? but there was a moment that i regreted requesting for a new one cos i was afraid they'll just bring it to the kitchen and re-heat it. i guess i was over-paranoid. it's a good thing that the oven area could be seen from my table and i saw with my own eyes that the waitress and her friends ate the pizza that fell on our table while the chef made a new one for us. phew. but i must say, that banana thing tasted good though.
something quite frustrating: mr roamy hands has been asking me out yet again. so natrually i turned him down yet again (im still sane you know.) he's quite a sad case because while he does try to understand why im feeling down, i cant be bothered to explain much to him. i dont even wanna spend time with him - and that's because i just dont like him. besides, there is someone else i like. he's attached. whatever. i bet this is my karma for hurting others. but hey, being down in luck doesnt really crush me so im still doing fine. daijoubu.
sigh. my work station tomorrow is directly opposite a pervert's! shant bother to look nice when i go to work tomorrow i guess. last week he kept popping over to my desk and asking lame shit that scared the shit out of me. he's really creepy - all girls are afraid of him. he's really weird and even asked a girl on what she thought about him getting a vietnamese bride and whether she has poly friends for him to date. she's my age btw. that's how scary he is. god bless me. it will be sad if the stars curse me to be a weirdo-magnet for this month. hah. what am i talking about? i dont believe in astrology.
