I haven't been rambling for a looong time....

So I'm getting everything off my painful chest.. Wahhaha... Sounds like I got chronic cardiac problems.

There are 2 people who seemed to be gettin on my nerves ever so often and I dunno why. I should ROAR out loud. Afterall, I used to be the Lion King. Hahaa.

Attempted Climber 1
The Maid was out to test me. First of all, when I urgently wanted to make an announcement, she snapped at me and said, "No more announcements!" WTF! So you have PMS and decided to let it out on me? As a result, I have to headhunt my kids and I couldn't get through some of em. End result. Messy.

Prize giving day. She was COMMANDING. Yes, command. It was apparent how unprepared and messy the whole thing is. She expected perfection when in the first place,she isn't exactly showing an example. She got 'kan chiong' when things dun go as planned. And when we gave input on the seating arrangement, she gave that look of disapproval.

Come actual day. My gosh, she was shouting at the kids! I mean, it's their day when they get their glory and you are suppose to recognise their achievements... Ah well. THEN, came the last minute shit. She hurried me and BL with a list of names..

"Quick, quick, set up a booth!" I was like - wat booth?
She told me and BL to sell pics/dvds to the parents!!! It was NOT written on the itenary or the list of duties! Wassup with all the last minute shits!!!! I was pissed that I wish I could piss on her face! Maybe it wasn't her idea... But why throw the shit jobs to me! Just because I'm a BT!!!

Then came P1 orientation. She came into my registration booth and start meddling with our affairs. We planned to collect money when the parents are seated in their seats while the fill in the forms, coz it'll be more systematic that way... But no... she insisted we collect the money before the parents sit down on their seats. It caused a long queue outside the classroom an it was quite chaotic. On seeing this, she came forward and start collecting the money as well! So There are 2 people collecting and it caused alot of confusion among the parents who came forward to me and wanted to pay again... At the end of the day, there was an extra $10. And we dunno where it came from... Thanks to that maid. Messy.

I have lots to say.... But I dun have the time. So in the next blog will be the attempted climber 2.

Raya-ed out

I think this year has been swell.

Went out with Jo's JSSians and it was fab... Especially with Taufik Batisah in a cameo appearance. I didn't know he was so tall... Waaahhh...

But the best part of it was my sec skoolmates... We were THERE! We actually took time off to pose in front of our alma mater... At night and we were creating quite a din! I thought it was an awesome day. With Arf and Nana giving a tour of their home, racing cars on the roads like as if we were on go-carts, watching scary movies at nightfall, Azmi giving Joyo a fright of his life (he literally jumped on Ija)...

Talking about scary movies... We watched "Wujud". For those who know nuts abt its existence (wat irony), it's about of group of paranormal investigators going around S'pore to capture sightings... no not alien of sorts, but ghosts, all around S'pore. It's this amateur video where they were armed with only video cameras and bad lighting... and it was a major rip-off. We were scrutinising the video and figured that they have spoofed the whole shit up. WTH?? After so much hoo-haa, it was just a cheap scam! PLUS, the vid was full of English and even MALAY grammatical errors!!!! Some major spelling errors eg "life footage"... shouldn't it be "LIVE footage"? Someone please, edit the whole vid first before distributing it in the market... so embarrassing... Can you imagine a Malaysian-scholar-who-picked-up-the-video's shock and horror on the language used??? Tho I dun see why a Malaysian scholar would wanna pick up a crap video like this, but yeah, damn it, it's MALAY... Can't you even do MALAY...? I bet I can. So you can imagine the other parts of the English. Nuff said.

I mean, it's not because I'm a freakin educator. But it's just how we should potray ourselves in the local market. We are supposed to have the "educated population", aren't we? Well, not how the crap vid displays us.

Ian's mystery thingy with the ustaz was much scary, tho we see nothing much, but we feel the genuinity. Even the Indon movie, which we watched at Hairi's and Sahinah's, (Suster Ngesot) was much much more scary. Tell the truth, I was freaked out that night and I couldn't exactly hit the sack at ease.

Anw I'm sniffing school hols now..... Yeaaaayy!!! Jealous? Dun be.

I'll update my multiply album real soon... Wait up.


Sunday, 4 November 2007

It's a Sunday morning. After a dose of polaramine, I feel quite light-headed... For the last few days, I've had fever, cold and occasional coughs. Not right as rain yet, hopefully soon enough so I can head down to the pool for a few laps and out cruising my neighbourhood with my legs....

Last sat, my cuz got married. Finally. While sitting my ass ard, one of the aunties who I've never seen before directed me to give out bunga telur, together with the rest of the kids... I dunno whether to be insulted or to take it complimentary. My mum had to explain that I'm shy. Then I realised she was my cuz's fiance's mother (what the fuck was she doing there, beats me). And someone told her that I am older than the bride and that I'm the eldest cousin among all. After that, she started talking to me like an adult, when initially she was hurling directive words at me. I take it that she thought I was a teenager, and that I looked young... There, makes me feel better.

The rest of the wedding was boring... Coz most of the time, me n my other cuz just sit and stare. I can't believe I just wasted a day... It was so hypocritical, I wonder why was I there in the first place. I hate my cuz's haughty mom (no I shall not acknowledge her my aunt) , and her new husband who thought he knew everything abt me even without me myself knowing it... Oh, it's such a long history...

Talking about weddings, I am in a frightful hot seat. I wanted to take initiatives and start planning things for my own, but I was chided before on how I take control of things without asking opinions. But I'm the organisational type, I take my own initiative to plan. And I carry things out need things be. But now, I have to take a backseat, as I painfully watch how things are never gonna be done.

I know I should not take control of things and be dominating. I should allow him some room to decide and direct. But I wonder if he even thought of it at all, unless I started probing. And I dun wanna be the desperate nag. I hate it. It's November already and according to plan, it should be December. But isn't it too late now? With nothing on hand?

I tried to plan holiday, but he thinks I'm giving him a time limit... I thought by doing that, it will speed things up and make things more efficient. Nope, it crashed down on me. So now I have to painfully take a backseat and watch..............

Maybe next year... Maybe not.....
