Life at JAC

Been awhile since I last post a blog. Hahaha... getting lazy with practically everything. Anyway, been in JAC for about 5 months, it has been quite an experience for me. Afterall it's my 1st full time job in Singapore. The only thing that I'm not used to is the CLOCK IN, CLOCK OUT system. I still remember, my first paycheck, there is this section which states, LATNESS - 1.08.





Seriously, since LATENESS is taken into consideration, how come the company don't consider employees that worked beyond 6pm? Shouldn't there be a section of OVERTIME? Sigh... Japanese Company, Japanese Culture... Good thing that they don't have the morning exercise event which is practise by many Japanese Companies.





Ok, enough of whinning, just had my lunch with my crazy bunch of colleagues(Joey, Kat, Reena, Yvonne, Colin and ME!) at Subway! Darn... they actually trash all the leftovers in the middle of the table and left the place happily!! CRAZY PEOPLE... HAHAHA...

Our Big Move to our new OFFICE...

Lyndi's last day + Joey's B-day + Division's LUNCH

2006 Xmas eve...

Last night recieve his phone call saying that he is on his way back Ooo... He will be stopping over in Japan for a day or 2! =p Save trip and see you soon.

Woke up at abt 8am and had a real short conversation with my dear cousin JOYCE. We are suppose to have a little gathering among the cousins tomorrow but stupid Joyce is going Taipei today. She don't even know that all of us are back in Singapore and she even threaten not give me my graduation certificate if we had a gathering w/o her! What kind of cousin you have, Missy Lin!!!

Why short conversation? Hehehe.. because Missy Lin fell back to sleep in the middle of the conversation. After which, I woke up at about 3 pm (which is about the time now) and currently watching my mum playing xbox. Some kind of car racing game!!! Hahaha! She is so lousy, keep getting caught by the traffic police and now she is in jail because she has no money to pay for the fine (the fine was a ridiculous amount because she got caught too many times)!!

Later after the regular family dinner gathering for Xmas, I guess I will be going to Cheryl's house for a mahjong session (though I don't really know how to). Darn suppose to get a gift (about $10 worth) for the exchanging present session.

Now my Dad's turn in playing. Though he seems more professional, still he failed his task of driving a tourist to her destination and was being called a bastard for crashing the vehical. Hahaha!

Missy Lin's turn... Hohoho

junko's visit...

Yes... finally! One of my overseas friend came to visit me as promised! Though it's only for a day, it's still better than nothing and we have enjoyed ourselves!! hahaha!

Junko.. remember to email me those photos taken with your camera ok?! Hope to see you real soon and good luck with issha...

Heard from Junko that in Japan.. neoprint cost half the price!

After a long walk at Bugis... both of us decided to go back my house and ZZzzzz...

After a short nap, went Jalan Kayu for PRATA... Shirley & Junko... Junko's first prata, satay, tei tarek and bandong

Sending Junko OFF... =( hope to see ya real soon

HURTS...

Hurt (noun, verb, adjective) = to cause injury, damage, suffer, lower efficiency of... (object/ bodily/emotionaly)

After so long my injured arm still hurts, i still can't straighten my right hand fully and still can't hold things for long with the right hand (just look at the way i feed myself!). Well... but at least it's not swollen like previously. As for my right leg, it's already fine, at least there are no more bruises, it no longer swells and most importantly i can walk miles without limping! i just proven that by bringing junko around!! hahaha!



Sigh... talking about hurt, reminds me of him. Still feels bad over it. Hope he is doing better now and moving on. Sigh... can't choose, actually, can't be with him no matter what. so there is no choice to it!



so all in all, i have been hurt and i have had hurt... Guilty...

My injuries... swollen like PiGGY...

The Bowling Night...

2nd game scoring

Last game scoring...

Two nights ago, I went bowling with my parents and 3 little naughty imps. As you can see, once again, even with all my desperate measures of not wanting to score the lowest, I still failed. My scores were as follow:

• 1st game: 44 (forgot to take a photo of it)
• 2nd game: 76 (not bad.. but still 2nd lowest)
• 3rd game: 34
  

We played a total of 3 games and as the game progress, my score progress as well except that the trend in downwards! How pathetic! I lost to everyone except the youngest boy who is like 8 years old (next year)!


Anyway it was great fun though on my expenses (because they keep joking about bowling skills... which is no skill!). We played till the bowling center closed (which is 1am) but it's as if we want to; it's because my stupid mummy who took forever to prepare to step out of the house!

After the game, we went back home and once again I'm being bullied by the kids, in Blackjack this time!!! I lost my precious beauty sleep and money because of them! Gosh... I need to babysit them once again tomorrow! God Bless Qinqin!!

The two champions competing in action

Reality hits! Can't strike always...

Qinqin in action... and there goes the ball, to the drain!!!

Mummy & Papa in action!! Papa, this time round not that great! Hahaha!

The only little boy that I won!! =(

Another Sleepless night

Picture taken at 4.08am BORED to the CORE

Once again I'm wide awake at this kind of freaking hours! It's forever this way... 1 day I get to fall asleep like regular Singaporeans and wakes up at 7 am (Ooo.. that's so healthy MISSY LIN); then the night day, I will stay so wide awake till the following morning and then fall asleep in the afternoon. My system is way screwed!

Suppose to bring the kids out tomorrow for Mcdonald's breakfast! I seriously doubt I could make it man... unless I don't sleep again. We will see how is it ehz?

So bored. Don't feel like searching for a job still so decided to watch anime. The youtube anime loading speed is so slow, so I decided to blog! Anyway I drew a couple of anime character earlier on for the fun of it. It has been a long while since I last drawn... Think I sucks...

My drawings!!! Took the drawing with a webcam... Lousy quality... but who cares when my drawing sucks too... =p

Anyway, it's still a good attempt (drawing is always better than wasting time on bed with brain filled up with sad thoughts), so "PAT on MISSY LIN's SHOULDER". Oh No! Supposed to meet Peng tomorrow to get present for Fang. She is going to murder me for sure, knowing that I'm going to wake up so late! DARN!

Ok.... back to my ANIME...

Going Professional

Time really flies. I had never really give a thought to what I want to be, what I want to work as. Today, my mummy, as usual, gave me a lecture on me slacking at home and not looking for any job. Sigh... I mean, I did look online for job openings but then I really don't know what I want and so I didn't send in any application.

Previously, when I was about to graduate or when I was in Boston, friends around me would always ask, "What you want to do when you get to Singapore?" My answer will always be either" I don't know" or " be MRS ___ get married and have kids". Haha... I always wanted to be "Tai-Tai" (of cause, not those brainless kind la...), to cook for hubby, to spend everyday with him and be pretty hehehe!!! Then my mum would say that I am wasting my education and that now women should be independent and not rely on the husbands.

Well... of cause I will be independent and not rely FULLY on my hubby but still, I want to be able to be dependent on him to a certain extend right? But anyway, the main problem stills voice down to the fact that I don't know what I want.

No matter what, I still need to find something soon. Otherwise, my mum (with high possibilities that my aunts and jie jie will combine power) will nag and it won't be long before I commit suicide with all the nagging. =p

Have to BALANCE Missy Lin...
