Stress??? Whatt..???

Recently been under a lot of pain caused by some unknown headache, migraine as they called it, only at the left side of my head. Being someone who has never gotten any headache for the whole of my 28 years of my life, it scared the shit out of me. Went to the doctor, who has given me some anti-depressant or anti-stress medicine. Been asked many times if I am under a lot of pressure at work or any stress at home, etc, basically stress.

Asked myself on my way home if I am under a lot of stress. Not sure if I know what stress really meant. Well, pressures, disturbing thoughts, I think most of us will have it. However, to what extent will it be considered too much? For someone like me to be under stress is a little unbelievable, I laugh all the time, do crazy stunts, say too much sarcastic jokes, who will know? I don't even know, I can't even tell. Well, a colleague recently said, maybe I am not unhappy with my life, but neither am I happy.

Well, I think many people will have the same feeling, life is mundane, boring even. Wake up early, think about work, come back late and sleep. Everyday is just waiting for the weekend to come. Weekend if it isn't hanging out with friends, it's catching up with the resting time.

Then, what is life?

Talent doesnt come easy

This doesnt come easy from someone as goofy as him (the wise words). Think he must have felt strongly about his music, his work and the efforts he so tirelessly put in.

" For some people, talent comes free. For some people, it must be bought with money, sweat and blood. Just like the majority of people, the free stuffs are always being taken for granted. Being a singer and liking to sing is an entirely different entities. Once something you like to do becomes a job, it changes shape into a burden, a pressure, a full blown stress machine. "

He said he constantly had to improve and while he is young now, he has to make himself well known enough to last him in his senior years. That is when he no longer can perform, but to be known enough to be sought after to coach the younger generation. That is making sense of his current work craze. He is restricted in time, food, friends, love life and life itself.

Well, recently I have gotten the chance to take a picture for an event for a friend, 3 hours straight of picture taking. With responsibility of taking decent pictures, making sure what needed to be taken is taken. I came home tired as hell. I remembered during the 3 hours I grew impatient, tired of taking pictures, something that as a hobby, I love it like hell. In the middle of it, I just wanted to go to hell with it, of course I was still burdened with my hangover from the night before, but really the feeling wasn't that good. Work is still work, I guess... Haha!

Have you ever visited the www.celegifts.com. This is a website created by my own 2 lady bosses, due to their love of shopping. They traveled overseas often and get some interesting items back to be sold on the website. Do lend your support and let me know some feedbacks and comments about the website if you have.
It has lots of items for men, women, home, fashion accessories and of course PETS!! That will be my forte, I suggested this category for them and most of the time hands on with the items there. So, let me know if you need anything or have items or ideas you can contribute to help me. This will be my grounds to see how things work online, a learning tool for perhaps to set up one of my own.

P.S. I have limited access to who buy what and when, so if you want to get discount let me know, so I can tweak some discounts for you back-end. See ya!!

Emoo

Uncle Bert always said we can't say this word emo as only Bimbos use it. Makes me feel like huh?!
Sometimes felt that bimbos has the better part of the world, not knowing anything, oblivious to their surroundings, but can they feel love, too? I don't know, just rambling here...

Anyway, felt like leaving on a jet plane! And I am leaving on a jet plane on thursday or rather a boeing 777 to Bangkok!
Fully paid by my most of the time lovely bosses, seriously they are lovely bosses. First time to Bangkok, can you believe that? Gonna shop and shop and eat and eat!

Sherina Munaf - First and Last Love
Translated by Yours Truly M.M.

At first there wasn't anyone able
to keep me hanging on
in times of sadness

At first I locked my heart
just for me and myself alone
now that you are here,
it seems that my worry and my loneliness tears are gone

reff:

You made me ask
You made me find
About this feeling
I can't understand
Would it be the same
if it wasn't you
And then your smile made me realise
that you are my first love and my last

At first it wasn't easy
to even smile in this life
that is full of darkness

At first there wasn't a need
to share as no one would understand
now that you are here,
it seems that my worry and my loneliness tears are gone

repeat reff

If there comes a day you would leave
Please don't force me to find a better one
As your smile made me realise
that you are my first love and my last

repeat reff

Like a dream....

Yesternight I had a farewell dinner for a colleague whom I have come to work with closely, grown accustomed to his existence in office. Well, he's gone now, though of course the friendship remains, felt uneasy without him. Came into office floating around like it's a dream, don't know it's because of the booze last night or it's the numbed feeling. My brain was thinking about so many other things on the journey that the music from my phone seems like it was never there. Didn't hear a word or a tune from it.

When I came in, another colleague decided to leave, too, though I have known him for mere 2 months, it's salt added to my wound. I just broke down and teared, especially after reading one of their farewell email. I promised myself that I wouldn't grow so close with colleagues, but somehow we are just drawn to each other. Might take some time in getting used to everything again, maybe I will never, but we'll just see how it goes....

Blue blue Friday! Well, at least I got the weekend to mourn.

Yayyy!

Hard days of work, we finally made it in to the new office. Everybody is settling down, the mood is chirpy and joyful. Well, my colleagues and bosses are all pretty close to each other, more like brothers and sisters, so everyday is like a jungle in the office. I love them lots~

We can utter harmless jokes cruelly to each other, knowing that the other party knows it's a joke and won't get hurt. We are always ready to stand up for one another and when someone makes a mistake, the rest won't hesitate to let them know. Where else to find a workplace like this?

When we went for drinking and somebody becomes a Merlion, there will be someone by his/her side to take care of the aftermath, cleaning after them and make sure they reached home safely. Last night after a dinner celebration we went to a pub, after some high-ing, we went home after making sure those drunk ones are driven home. Surprised to see that a bunch of them texted me after I reached home to report safety. Hahaha... When I didn't reply their SMS, cos I was cleaning up for sleep, they called me to ensure I am safe home. I felt like I belong somewhere again, finally... 

My second happy family

Everything new....

New office, a merging of our 2 sales departments. Have been busy packing for this whole week, which is also a good time to rest my mind from working and all the stress. For us, the long weekend starts last Friday. So cool~

Our new office at iHub looks great, I like my new sitting place, with wall at my back, woot~ Super privacy!

Just wishing all the colleagues will get along well like we used to, especially my two lovely lady bosses. For them to work together at the same place, again! Everybody seems hyped about the moving in together, the excitement was evident, hope it will last longer.

Happy happy~

Hollaaaa....

Just realised that it has been sooo long since I last checked in. Work life has been great, always been great and let's hope it will always be great. Must be due to not enough rest, I have been getting almost sick everyday for the past month, cough cough, sneeze sneeze... haizzzz... I just need to pump myself up with vitamins to get me through the days, really didn't feel like getting MC. Be damned, 24 hours is definitely not enough.

Aw... I will be getting back home on the 13th Nov!! April will be with Marcus and I requested for him to bring her back home with him. Insisting on 24 hours supervision! Price is a bit ouchy, but what the hell, rather than her traumatising anybody else. Hehehehe... Right??? Righttttt??? If everything goes well, April will be with him for CNY, too... Seems like a great guy who genuinely love the kiddos, well I feel comfortably at ease meeting him the first time.

That's for now... Chiao...

Recovering

Not sickness, but from tiredness. I went to a dinner in Malaysia last night with the bosses and the rest of the colleagues. My... aren't I in the wrong place to work, in a good way. LOL! After the hard work of getting to the place itself, we had a satisfying seafood dinner. We were the noisiest guests, probably ever.

We played stupid exciting games and it was sooooo fun. I laughed till my jaw hurts. I ate freaking raw prawn and oysters, to think that I hate seafood and I have not even eaten the cooked ones. Damn it! It tastes like helllllllllll...

It was one satisfying night, really. Glad I wasn't in the shut off mode and made up one reason not to go.

No pics... as they are all probably too scandalous to expose...! =P
