September 7th, 2006

ok i'm finally updating smtg,

Posted by gErRiNiC at 11:12 PM on September 7, 2006.

Ok i've finally decided to do an update on my life! haha feels like a long time since i've done up an entry proper. But hey, working life is busy. And it doesn't help that working has made me not feel like blogging about anything. Not that there is nothing very interesting happening to me, but i kind of feel that work is totally consuming my life! =X sounds very no life, but that's kind of working life for you!

Anyway, even though I signed up for project superstar, I guess most probably I won't be going for the auditions? Absolutely cannot decide on the song man! Cannot sing smtg too popular and cannot sing smtg not popular haizz... cannot sing smtg too popular is cos wait every1 sing it... cannot sing too not popular is cos wait judges cannot rem u. oh well. and I think I'd be too tired to go n queue there all day. Been working horrid hours lately and I anticipate tmr I will really work late enuff to claim cab, in fact tmr morn's cab fare will be claimed. need to be at work at 730am =/

I think I am having a new crush on this other guy in my office (yes as usual someone at the office). actually maybe not considered new cos i did have a mild crush on him on the first week of work cos he's the cutest guy among us freshies. But aiyo, he is prc. haha and seriously, this 'nationalist' thought has recently made me reflect quite a bit, because way back during jc time i remembered being quite close to some prcs in my class and in choir. But yet now it's like I'm feeling quite 'racist' towards them. Maybe it's cos during uni, there was totally minimal contact with prcs. I can say that my only 'considered' prc friend was Peter. ok anyway back to this guy. he's quite cute in a sense (character wise). free spirited and also damn guai looking wahaha. and he has an ah beng looking twin brother! how cool is that wahaha. Today when he saw me he gave me quite a big smile and called me,'大姐头!' haha cos the night before I told him on msn that I was going to be the local admin for a new system that is going to rollout soon, and he was like,'wah so you going to be our big sister ah?' wahaha cute. oh well, another eye candy. hee my eye candy's are really replacing fast! =X whoops.

ok i guess what set out to be quite a concrete entry is turning out to be quite random, i'm feeling really exhausted now. nites! 

2 thanks ;)

I think i'd be blogging in a very random nature from now on. with work crashing into my life... nothing seems to last for my concentration level.

+++ 

I think it's harder and harder for me to really fall for a guy? mild crushes aside, I think my tolerance for kind of funny/weird traits aka 'flaws' in a guy is getting really low. haha i dunnoe, guess it's like I think if there is anything weird bout a guy, then I think it's no point to continue liking someone because I think eventually it'd come back eating me on my hand (or biting me on my back) and it'd leave me with a sour aftertaste. the prc cute guy's english is quite jialatz. haha and really, as wad J says, that guy is quite like a girl in a guy's body =) chatty and a little kiddish wahaha. am i biting my own tongue here? hmm...

+++ 

work is getting kinda sucky at times. 2 mths of hell here i come!

+++ 

I think my finances are getting out of hand... shd I just heck care and spend all I want since i've just signed on to a new savings and insurance plan? I can't really control my spending urges, and money just seems to slip out of my hands with just a swipe of the card. and i've just gotten my citibank gold visa card! (and how come they gave me a gold card? i tot i'd b getting a classic visa card... -_- ) which means: more spending coming my way... Credit cards are bad for health! beware! as what i told PY today, money is seriously not an issue anymore. not that I am earning super big bucks (which i really am not! cos winson is working at credit suisse and compared to that, i'm just only getting a meager pay), but rather more of like i feel i have more spending power? but that's bad cos the value of money just becomes lesser to me and i'd just get out of hand with my spending.

+++

anyway, bad things aside, i'd be meeting mine and naoki later! i believe they have just arrived in singapore. =) totally can't believe that they are finally here again. which just goes to show: how time flies! sheesh my soul silently cries for help. 

i don't know what i am going to sing later for ktv...

Currently listening to: jay's new album
Currently feeling: exhausted

my first date with a chinaman...

Posted by gErRiNiC at 11:51 PM on September 30, 2006.

haha quite an eventful day I guess. Rushed to gym today (haven't been there for almost a month! haiz wasted money). oh well, I think I have to force myself to go gym more often, makes me feel so much better after going to the gym. (This actually reminded me of the times I kept going to gym to keep my spirits up after I found out that Joel was attached) I guess it's the stress that was built up for the past month, that's why I feel so much better after the session.

Ok so after gym, I rushed off to get the tickets which I booked (for the very first time!) at cineleisure. Only decided to watch 'Scoop' this morning after I saw it on the newspaper. It's not too bad, I would say it's typical of a Woody Allen film, where there is a strong and powerful use of language to create totally cynical jokes. But yes I have to say I was left entertained throughout the show. Although not the typical kind of entertainment that I get out of action or romance/comedy films. Woody Allen has that kind of charm that will make you want to listen more carefully in the dialogue so that you can catch the funny jokes. Hopefully the show did not totally give a headache to my PRC 'date'.

After that we went for a short and slightly painful walk around the Taka. Actually the whole motivation for meeting up today was to help get some clothes for my friend. However, after a while I realised I totally have no experience in shopping for guy's clothes. Very difficult indeed. Selection is little and sizing is quite difficult. Shirts have so many sizes, sleeve length and what have you.

Quickly got to chinatown where my friend brought me to a Sichuan restaurant to let me try Sichuan food. Wah originally I really found it hard to get accustomed to the taste, which was extremely spicy. And it was 麻辣 kind of spicy with pepper corns all over. :S And there were like 3 dishes like that! Luckily we ordered white rice and this extremely nice rice wine and tang yuan dessert and later he helped me order a plain soup, otherwise I think I would have died very badly over dinner. Towards the end I think I got more accustomed to the taste and finished most of the remaining food except the 酸辣面 which was totally not 酸辣 but more of 麻辣. Oh well, all in all quite a different experience and an eye opener. I am quite surprised that I do not really feel any strong, spicy aftertaste and my stomach is having that horrible 'volcano erupting' feeling. But I think most of the people in the shop was staring at us because I was like speaking a mix of english and not so good chinese while the rest of the people were mainly speaking Sichuan. I heard a bit from my friend which was quite interesting (languages really fasinate me)

But I must say, I got quite a bit of a headache from the massive chinese session all evening, a bit hard to understand at times. I think I must have looked really blur at times. All in all, a non boring and slightly more special 'date' which I've not had in a long time. I don't see this as a start to anything, because frankly, the headache from the massive chinese has not totally subsided. However, it's quite nice to see a new side of things because I think I'm too used to doing/eating the same things with local guys.
