The day kicked off bad but ended not too bad..
The day kicked off bad but ended not too bad..
Right after Poodie & I came back from breakfast, the very moment my backside touched my seat, my stupid phone started ringing and continued ringing. It was as though the phone had a life of its own. The ringing was so continuous that I was visibly irritated. And some of these calls were from people asking about MD's area of work, to think I had to spend time entertaining them as well, as if I did not have enough of my own stuff to do!! I could hardly believe my luck, and all on a Monday morning! I wonder why people were so enthusiastic about work on a dreary monday morning! And to top it off, my boss had to ask me to go into his room following all those nerve-racking phone calls and asked me to follow up on something. But this was by far not the most irritating thing that happened this morning. He then popped by shortly and reminded me to organise the mini communication session. Haven't I already set the date, time & venue? But no, that was not enough. He wanted me to call up the relevant people and check on their availability as well as the people they wanted to bring along. I really hate to do such things cuz as expected, different people had different available periods, making things very difficult for the coordinator (which was me!). I really dun understand why he can't ask MD to do this? MD asked me recently how she could send a calendar invite! I was shocked. Well, it's probably because she hasn't done meetings for such a long time and I think it's high time she gets back on track!
Anyway, about this communication session. Actually the big boss had dictated that there were 2 depts who should organise their own com session and my dept was not one of the two. But dunno why my boss is so persistent about our dept having one too, combined with another dept which was also not in the list. I really dun understand why he must always be so 'gei kiang' and even if he wanted to be so 'gei kiang', he can always ask MD or the other dept to organise, why me and why us?!!
Talking about MD, now that THAT event is over, she is super free man cuz she came over just now and said she will hand over the report (as mentioned in my earlier entry, my "one" report became "two", all thanks to her, this is the ONE report!). I have never seen her so enthusiastic about discussing something before (maybe this time, it's about washing her hands clean of something which she dreads and which I dun like either). In the past, it's always put off and put off until it can't be put off anymore. I was damn pissed and seeing the irritation on my face, she apologetically said that "she dunno if she was casing me more stress"!!! What a question to ask!! Wasn't the answer so damn obvious? If you were truely sorry about it, then DO more!!! Actions speak louder than words man! If you were really so sorry, you would have volunteered to help me instead of saying such unhelpful things!!! I was so pissed that I could not bring myself to say anything. Then she continued to apologetically ask me if it was ok if she went for a course this Wed to Fri cuz she didn't have time to go for the course before THAT event. (as if she needed to justify to me why she needed to go for the course) This really made my blood boil so I just said "Go lah, go lah!" Anyway, it's not like she would be much help to me even if she were around.
Talking about happier things, the videographer whom JonHo recommended called me today, as promised and I am going to meet him this week to view his works. So exciting! I asked eve along too so that she could help to give me comments or views on his works. Am anticipating quite a bit from him cuz JonHo said he was really good and can come up with something that is different from the usual style. Most wedding videos and montages look almost identical. Really hope he can create something unique and special for piggy & I so that in years to come, we can look back with nostalgia..heehee..
I also bought my shoes from Leapin' Lizard last week with piggy and tho it was ex, I paid for it on my own cuz my friends said it's not good to buy shoes for others or let others buy shoes for you so I think it's better to be safe than sorry. haha.. I love the shoes, it's exactly as I wanted it to be, like what I saw in the magazine except that I customised the heels to 3.5 inches from the original 5.5 inches glass heels..cuz I dun want to look taller than my piggy ma..heehee.. But piggy also very funny, he said "no matter how high you wear, also won't be taller than me one lah" implying I am very short lor..haha..actally I am not that short lah, just that my piggy is 15 cm taller than me..heehee...
Piggy told me he is doing skipping now..haha..a skipping piggy...I am also trying to be more health-conscious.. Just drank green apple juice, trying to drink lots of juice (heard it helps to detox, better than fruits) cuz I hope my face will get better before my 'ROM'..also trying to drink more water, shit more (like my piggy, cuz shitting is also a form of detox I think. maybe that's why my piggy's face is smooth as a tomato! heehee), walk more, feel less stressed at work (but think I can't try too hard cuz the harder I try, the more stressed I am at work!)...
