| This week has been slack thus far. I'm still deciding if I wanna go to work tomorrow. I feel like a break is needed. heh. But don't go means no moneh, means no free coffee/milo/biscuits, means no lunch at amoy or maxwell, means can't get the slipper which belongs to someone at Amplify which is currently sitting under kexin's desk. Maybe I can go in the morning and then take half day off. That sounds like a good idea. Tomorrow go early and then ask boss if i can. haha. | |

| So I had hoped that Thursday wouldn't be a crazy day at work. Turns out I worked OT til 130am. How crazy is that?! And to think we actually left before it was done. I never ever want to see that project ever again. Eurgh. Friday was slack to the max. We did the most basic of our duties, checking. But we had to wait like 3hours for our time sheets to be verified and signed. So our plans of leaving early were foiled! Ended up leaving at 630pm as per usual.
Yesterday was fun fun fun. Awesome. Caught movies at PS. We planned to watch 2012 but it was totally sold out. So it was Astroboy! with Ben, Bev, Charlene, Evan, Rachel, Sharleen, and Widya.(: Headed down to grab a bite and we kinda flooded Cartel? Coz Poonie, Howard, Daisy, Cheryl, Jason, Dom, Alex, Issac, and three other of his friends joined us. We took up 3 tables! haha. And then I don't know who decided hey let's go watch 2012 now. So while waiting for the show to start, we headed over to TCC and played bang! haha. Fun! Then Bev, Evan, Howard, Jason, Poonie, Rachel and I headed up for 2012. Good show. I'm gonna watch it again, this time with better seats. We were in the first row towards the aisle. Which means we were looking up and to the right for most of the show. haha.
Oh dear, it's back to work tomorrow. | |

| I've set a new record. I ot-ed til 1130pm yesterday. 5hours overtime. Have you ever heard of a temp working 5hours overtime? Oh well, I got ot pay and I can claim dinner and cab fare. It's really crazy. I've been working on this project since friday afternoon. But yesterday and today were the crazy days. Friday and Monday were normal, just do up the thing, wait for them to pass me the info for the next part. Leave at 630. Then suddenly on Tuesday he tells me he needs it by end of the day and wants me to ot to finish it up. Luckily my supervisor has common sense and told him it was impossible. So he said to do up just the first part. Thank goodness. If I really stayed and finished it, I would have been there overnight. It took 3people using 5 computers to finish it today, and we only finished it after an hour of ot. Yesterdays' ot is enough to cover one days' work. Considering taking off on friday. Gonna try to finish everything up tomorrow and bargain with my supervisor to let me go and relax on friday. My brain was totally gone after ot last night. Then I had to head in to work at my normal time today and work on that project the whole day. Tomorrow had better not be that crazy. | |

| Today I went for 730am mass. And I must say it was really quite awesome. The congregation was wow. I must say that I feel so ashamed of all the times I went for the later masses and felt sleepy. I have always thought that the congregation at my church was responsive. I can actually hear the congregation responding. There are some churches where I attended mass at before and it was very very quiet. You can barely hear the congregation, barely hear the people next to you even. This morning I was really amazed at how responsive and enthusiastic the congregation was. It was all so loud, you could hear everyone singing and responding. All this despite it being so early in the morning. These people are really in love with God and want to shout their praise to Him. It was really so awesome. I really feel ashamed of the times where I went for the later masses and was so sleepy and spoke in such low tones. If you go to my parish, really take at least one Sunday to go for the 730am mass. It really makes you feel so good. | |

| OT is such a killer when you get assignments in the afternoon and they say it's urgent, I need it by today. Tuesday I OTed til 930, and yesterday til 8. Today, to escape from OT, I left work at 515. haha. Tomorrow, no OT please! I've got plans! haha.
So recently, I keep seeing this friend in the online world. Be it on fb, or msn. But seems like everytime she appears, I am just about to go off. And I kinda miss the times when we were messaging each other everyday. It was fun and entertaining. She is a good friend. But after some shit, we stopped talking for a good while. And even though we've long been back to being friends, we just don't talk as often as we used to(which was everyday!). Hello friend, I liked those days when we were good friends who talked everyday, besides all that other nonsense that was going on. Just now I saw this person I have a history with had just posted new photos on fb. The difference is, this one makes me want to run away. Like seriously, I did try to be friends again, but somehow it just made me more scared. haha. Anne, it's you know who. haha. | |

| Do something because you know why you're doing it. Not because someone told you to do so. Off Felixs' blog. My sentiments exactly(in reference to my previous post). | |

| Today I got to my office at 930am. I started immediately on my assignment. I was doing it for the whole day. Manager wanted it by today, so Jorin(the girl working with me) and I had to work on it. We OT-ed and only left office at 9pm. We were both kinda a bit brain dead by 7plus. which is when another one of the staff came over to check on our progress and realised that what we were doing was wrong because the part we were trying to do in the file we were given was wrong. BAH.
On another note, I found out that Jorin and I have some mutual friends. She's a friend of Lorraine, whom I knew of in SJC, and she knows Lorraine's good friends from SJC, some of whom I know, and one of them is my cousin. haha. Cool. | |

| Last weekend and this weekend, the cathecist ministry at my church were having their recruitment drive. Last week, one of them gave me the form and asked me to go back to the cathecist ministry. Today is Mission Sunday, and Fr JJ talked about evangelisation and faith formation of the children. Before I went to church I already decided I was going to join the cathecist ministry so I filled up the form and gave it to them before Mass. So I was sitting there during his sermon thinking, wow it was as if God was affirming my every step. And then he gave me another affirmation. I was sitting in the pew, waiting for communion. I looked up to the centre aisle (I was sitting at the side), and lo and behold there I saw the person who made such a big difference in my faith life. It's really amazing coz I seldom see her around. The last time I saw her was last year if I'm not wrong. It was really awesome, He really is trying to tell me that I'm on the right path. On the day I take that action to make my journey as a fisher in the cathecist ministry, Fr JJ mentions about faith formation for the children in the cathecist ministry, and I see the person who made me willing to be a fish who happens to have been my cathecist when I was in sec3. | |

| To follow is to fish. The main point of fridays' session about evangelism. Homework: think of one person who has made a big difference in your faith, and write them a letter. I thought of one person straight away, and another 2 more after a while. The first made me from a single-celled organism into a fish. The second one got me on the hook to this community. The third one reeled me in. My faith seems to consist of various long journeys, but it's alright. I know the destination I want to be at, so I'm going to enjoy the journey and make sure it's a great one. The journey is as important as. if not more than, the destination. | |
|
| So yesterday was good. Today would be classified as good if not for something that happened before lunch which really freaked me out quite badly. I'm still freaked out and totally do not know how to deal with it. At least while I was staring at numbers after lunch, I didn't think about it. I'm gonna drink my bubble tea and eat my pepper ridge farm cookies to make me feel better. Comfort food is really needed very much. I think I'm gonna buy like lots of chocolates to tide me through tomorrow night. | |
