Rotting, decaying, waiting.....

The busi Jan is going to finish. Done with the stupid conference thing. Life in office is back to rotting mode.... It not rotting that I am worried... its the uncertainity.... The year has began and naturally its time to finish the review for 2007 and objective setting for 2008. Sian!

I hate this part.... and the best is I haven hear anything... that means I am being forgotten again! Or purposely left out. Sian....I just have to tell myself... hold and see... its the waiting that I hate most. Waiting for salary every month...to clear bills.... Waiting for year to end, waiting for review, waiting to see got increament bo... waiting to see new changes to system bo... wait and wait... end of the day... sai one big lump nia....

Feb coming... ok... CNY.... finish so call CNY shopping last Sunday... actually this yr I cut my shopping list... not much stuffs I want to buy... actually is cut cost... but I think I din really cut cost in term of value... I guess its the no of items decrease but value keep the same or increase... So... that is wat the ppl are saying... increase in cost of living.

I managed to get a new set of clothing for CNY... its so hard to get Nick to pick a shirt for new year... he cant be bothered to buy 1. I dun know why its so hard to man to buy clothes. Its never enough shopping for new clothes and shoe for me! Hahahah... Walk half a day nia, he complain tired liao....

Did a count on my CNY expenses...mostly goes to clothes. And CNY goodies... although I cut on quantity but amount sum up to be almost the same as last year... still a few more goodies I haven buy... will see how. The necessity has already been stocked up...like tibites, drink and beer! 

This year we buy a lot of beer... why? Because Uncle Nick wants that Golden rat from Tiger beer! There are 3 of them "Fu Lu Shou". Free 1 piece in a nice box with 3 cartons of beer. (Its 10 can per carton) Last Saturday we lugged 3 cartons back... and I choose the "FU" golden rat. Uncle Nick say he wants 3 of them! I say 1 "FU" represent everything liao.

Next is ang bao... we need to give ang bao this yr... ok... no choice, like wat my colleague say, take it as a blessing when u can give "能给是福". But within our means lar.... then I realise this yr all the places like cut cost, ang bao packet also give until very kiam! Last year petrol station give like no body biz.I collect a lot! Hahaha... This yr I din manage to get any from petrol station.

Then go shopping mall, its like u spend 50 bucks then exchange 1 free packet of ang bao. Inside per pack is like 6 pieces nia. Woh bang.... paper increase cost also... Somemore need to q up to collect. We had this receipt of $115. We q like 10 over ppl infront to see what we can do with the receipt... thought got lucky draw or wat. Who knows 1 foc ang bao packet. Because it was a single receipt, the lady wanted to give me 1 pack nia, then Uncle Nick say "we spend 100 lei, u must give me 2 pack".... after that I laughed at Nick... I tell him... he very typical Singaporean loh.....

I walk past some lelong waggon... ppl grabbing pillow... $9.90 offer, usual like 20+ so I grabbed 2 also...hahaha.... then q again to pay money. I ask Nick to q while I go to the loo. When he reached the cashier, the lady behind him damm kan cheong to pay money. She paid for our pillow instead. The cashier collect the money from her 1st, but Nick was infront of her. So Nick said to the cashier, "U all very confusing and ruan lei" Then I tell Nick...he is becoming more and more like uncle liao! :P hahahaha

One more week to CNY... With CNY coming, everywhere can hear "Feng shui shi fu" giving talk then ytd I heard this famous one mentioned that spring cleaning also must choose date..cannot certain date cos clash with certain sign lar....woh bang... faint ar... I best liao... I choose not to spring clean... then wont clash with anyone loh...hahahah :P

Sometimes back...I heard on radio.... the 1st Wednesday of the year is the saddest day cos you start seeing ur xmas cc bill, u are back to reality and work, and u see that your resolution is going to be broken..... I do agree to some extend... BUt I think it apply to Ang Mo country...

In Singapore I think its the month of Jan that is the darkest... cos you start seeing u need money for CNY, your cc bill for XMAS + CNY. Back to work but no mood cos CNY coming... if you work in Ang Mo company lagi worse... they dun understand why U need to spend so much time to prepare for CNY. Hahaha (I already hear my colleague complaining no time to make cny cookies, have to take leave) ... and lastly, by now, you would have realise that most of the new year resolutions is crushed...not broken nia...

My 1st resolution already crushed... hse most probably wont be ready by this year...so xmas venue.... cant be at home liao... but new year dun have to think of venue...cos 2 cousins married side by side on 30 and 31... so 31 after wedding dinner can go see fireworks...hahahah... I am a bit crazy hor. Think of dec 08 liao, Jan 08 just about to finish. Hahahah..... its better to have hope rather than rot and vegetate rite. :)

Ok... I need some excitment... wats next.... I m so bored....
