Thursday 27 August 2009

came back home really late just now. reached home at like 5am in the morning. was suppossed to meet up with kenneth later in the day. morning call is suppossed to be at 11am. he messaged me at 10.30am. i was still drowsy from lack of sleep. i glanced at his msg and went back to zee zee land. i called him later at 11.45am.

met him at ang mo kio at 1pm and i was still in my zombie-ish state. went for lunch at the foodfare at ang mo kio hub. wasn't feeling really hungry (and lacking of appetite due to last night's activity, which i'd rather keep it away from you) so i got myself a drink. avocado milkshake. and it tasted like fuck. payed three fucking dollars for some fuck shit that even my mother can make it with both of her eyes closed. it was really screwed up lah.

anyway after that, we reached the office at 2pm plus. he needed to see his ommah for some case thingy. it stretched till like 5.30pm. and guess what? his tuition at cairnhill (which is just in fron of the office, maybe a ten minute walk) is at 4.30pm. he came out of the office all black faced and fuming. he said he had to postpone his tuition thingy by 1 hour.

anyway that's done, i'm actually now at toa payoh library, making full use of the air conditioning and free wireless network. better than chillin at mcdonalds, where you'll need a purchase to stay long. anyway i'm nice and cooled down now and i'm feeling preeetty hungry... feel like buying a sandwich from that bakery shop.
omg. so tired. tired of drama. i'll tell you everything tomorrow ok?

sigh... need to go out. one of my bffs is having a breakdown now...


sigh

Tuesday 25 August 2009

something funny happened at jurong point today. while i was in the train at chinese garden station, he smsed me saying "OMG this is so screwed. meet at sweetalk later".so i bought the drinks and waited by the shop till he came. at first i didn't suspect anything. saw him as his normal self wearing berms and a t shirt. then while walking he said, "You know what, i forgot to bring the survey paper lah!" (ps we were suppossed to be doing canvassing at jurong point). i offered him some paper of mine and i realised "oh, you're wearinhg berms." so, just like that today's activity was cancelled.

anyway, the evening was not wasted. first he wanted to get this hardcore file. i wasn't sure what he meant at first. after much description, i realised he meant the folder thingy with fasteners on the side. its like a plastic tupperware book where you'll have to open it and place your loose sheets of papers into it. it was like an amazing race thingy to look for the hardcore file. we first went to Harris, then to this crappy shop called Japan Home (i think). both of them did not carry it. we decided to go to the Fairprice Extra to look for it but before we could find the supermarket, we stumbled upon .... jeng jeng jeng!! POPULAR!! we went inside and started our manhunt. it was so difficult lah to find that god foresaken folder thing. and finally, he found it! yay! finally! but the queue for the cashier's was like a queue for a major bank. it snaked all the way to the back of the cashier's lah! it was terribly hardcore!! hahaha!

anyway, after paying for the stuff, we headed to find this shop called Spectacle Hut. Jurong Point was a total nightmare for Jurong Novices like us. it snakes round and round and round! its really terrible! we combed the basement first. the entire basement! then we headed to the ground floor and and searched again. the entire level lah! then we headed to the second level and we were about to go up to the third level when kenneth spotted this small opening to the side of the mall. we walked there and voila! there was spectacle hut! but right at the end of the wing. i mean really,really far in.

in the shop, we went around looking for glasses. he needed a change of glasses badly and i am just bored with my current pair. i found this really cute pair! its plastic and full framed. looked really like those korean stars are currently wearing. but the bad thing is the frame costs $200 plus. that means with the lenses, they would have costed like $280 for me. that's a little too expensive for me. nbut i love the frames to bits! they look really cool!! i think i'll look for a similar pair somewhere cheaper... oh anyway kenneth found two frames that he liked, but thewould have costed like $170 after discount AND the $40 voucher. that's like super pricey lah. some more the frames weren't that fantastic; i prefered his old frames to the new ones he selected. we didn't buy anything from the shop eventually.

after the spectacle debacle, we decided to head out to eat. i decided on kopitiam. but when we reached the second floor, guess what? IT WAS CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS LAH!! craps of the world!! so we decided to go to this makan place called Feast on the third floor. its like a makan place filled with mid priced stalls. they have a korean restaurant, ajisen ramen and an indonesian restaurant there. we first stopped by the indonesian restaurant. we decided to look at the dishes first and i remarked,"The dishes looked scary." by that i meant the dishes looked rather spicy. we then moved on to the korean restaurant. the girl by the door kept talking to me in chinese. i just ignored her, thinking kenneth was listening to her. she continued to talk to me and i kept ignoring her, still thinking kenneth is listening to her. we eventually decided to not eat at all as i was not feeling that hungry and i can probably tahan till i reach home. while walking out, kenneth gave me a pep talk saying i was rude to them just now and that i should check myself before i do anything to embarrass them. he also said something of retribution, which i happen to sooo believe in now!! i feel so bad after all that!!

TO THE KOREAN RESTAURANT GIRL AND THE INDONESIAN RESTAURANT GUY AT FEAST AT JURONG POINT, I'M SORRY I WAS RUDE TO YOU! i did not mean to be rude but i was unaware that what i said may unintentionally hurt your feelings. i'm truely and deeply sorry for whatever i have said to you and i promise to not be as loud in the future as how i am now.

guess that's all for tonight. going to watch some Nodame Cantabile now. ciao ciao!!

Monday 24 August 2009

anyway i am at coffee bean at orchard central now. the connection at work sucked big time. its lie disconnecting every minute and reconnecting to another wireless network. its damn screwed up lah. wireless@sg is sooooo much better. OMG! anyway yeah, intended to stay here longer till 7 maybe but we decided to do canvassing at jurong point instead. so yeah, productivity to wireless access.....

anyway anyway, i tried coffee bean's new ice blended drink, the Nutty Delight Ice Blended. its an ice blend with pistachio nuts. initially it tasted ok, then slowly, the ice blend resembled some ice slushie thing and tasted soo bad. BUT I FINISHED IT ANYWAY! pistachios i hearts! i think the barista didn't add enough milk. stupid fat bitch. dunno how to make drinks ah? knn!

anyway, that's all for now! need to go to jurong point by 6pm!!!!

toodles!
feeling much better than yesterday. i felt ok by like 5pm. so no worries people! anyway anyway, why am i blogging this early? its becausseeee, i woke up early to watch the Miss Universe 2009 pageant!! but let me tell you something, it was sooooo screwed up! okay,40% of my prediction came true; that Australia, Belgium, Czech Republic and Venezuela will be in the top 15. but still!! its like the pageant this year is like for the european union and the americas.

but where are the hot asian favourites?? like vietnam or indonesia or even turkey?? it was really disappointing lah. dunno what to say lah... i'll upload some pictures of the winner later.. well at least venezuela won, not that skanky and disgusting albanian bitch. she looked like she could eat ten men! eww!!

Sunday 23 August 2009

oh my god... its the great hangover... i'm still feeling all giddy from yesterday. okay, here's what happened yesterday night.

met him up at newton at six pm. passed him the bottles of vodkas and he exclaimed "what the fuck sia. my arm will break sia" haha so funny! we were suppossed to meet jerry up for dinner, but he has to go back because his grandmother passed away. we were terribly hungry so we made a pit stop at tiong bahru (bad choice) to eat at a kfc there. okay i had the cheesy melts set and he had the zinger meal. here's what we got.

for my meal, the cover of the drink was missing, my cheesy melts was cut up irregularly and the filling was very sparse.

for his meal, the shreds of lettuce in the burger was terribly off coloured. i should have soo taken a picture of it and post it here. it was like all mushy and brown and soggy. its like what kenneth said," the veggies went for war and came back. it was all battered up." it was really really grossed. i wanted to ask the restaurant manager for an explanation but he said its ok and scrapped the disgustation bits off the bun and started to munch. oh and his coleslaw was missing from his set too.

to top it all off, it took him like 30 minutes to get to the head of the line to order the food. only two counters were opened.

so guys, DON'T PATRONISE THE KFC AT TIONG BAHRU PLAZA Y'ALL HEAR?? THEY SERVE CRAP SHIT THERE..

anyway we made our way back to hostel after buying some snacks from fairprice. we reached the hostel at like around 8pm plus.

we had the wine first. it tasted really really mild and smooth. we finished half of the bottle and decided we're game for something better. our first drink was a double screwdriver. and that was when the funstarted! hahahahahaha! you should seriously be there lah! it was really funny! kenneth was all doopy and funny when he's really 'se'. hahahaha! it was really really funny lah! we were hungry by 11pm and kenneth suddenly had a craving for prawn me. he's the most lousiest NTU guide around! he doesn't even know where is the 24 hour supermart. what a loser!!

but it was a really fun night and i think he's the best drinking buddy i ever had, even though its just like only me and him. i left his place at 2am.

oh and i owe him $10 for goodnese sake.
went to drink at hostel again. before that we had dinner at the kfc outlet at tiong bahru plaza.

ladies and gents, the kfc outlet there is like fuck!! kenneth ordered a zinger meal at a student's rate while he ordered mine at a kanina normal inflatedly horrendous price of $6+++. the server was like fuck and the service was inconsistent.

bought some marie biscuits

i owe kenneth 10 dollars for goodness sake

Saturday 22 August 2009

watched a show recommended by kenneth. one litre of tears (1`リットルの涙) or ichi rittoru no namida. its a really sad show about this 15 year old girl who has this disease and slowly will not be able to do daily necessities like writing and walking. its a really sad show. i watched only till the 2nd episode and its like so poor thing lor!

oh and an added bonus; the doctor is hot!!

Friday 21 August 2009

while surfing the web today, i came upon the jewel in the palace OST. just found out that the title of the song is Onara. its actually the clip below. jewel in the palace was my first dose of korean drama and i loved every bit of it. its dramatic without being too sappy, romantic without being to cloyingly sweet and entertaining without being too informative. i especially love the cooking parts and how they served it to the king and queen.

i now officially have a dire craving for korean food. need to go out and buy more kimchi.

anyway, here's another video of onara. this time its sung by Kim Yeon Ja. she's a korean who sings japanese enka. i don't like the way she sings enka. in this video, i think her singing is still very brutal and tragic, but i love the green gown and the way she moved. so graceful and poise, just like a gisaeng..

Thursday 20 August 2009

ONARA

ONARA ONNARA AH DU DU WA!!!




love this song! its soo soothing and brings back joyous memories of the serial, although it takes like forever to conclude!!

Wednesday 19 August 2009

oh and i watched this really good movie on HBO. its called Georgia Rule. its a really good show and damn! its a tearjerker!
dunno why but i think my lappy is really screwed up. everything seemed so wrong from here... even the new entry window for blogger looks like some weird fuck shit. anyway anyway, managed to secure some glug glugs for saturday!! if i'm not mistaken, i managed to secure a bottle of absolut vodka and a bottle of absolut peach from deny!! love you deny!! hearts hearts!! can't wait for saturday!!

wait... what day is it today? oh.... wednesday right?? aiyoh, the week went by so slowly..

anyway did canvassing just now with kelvin and chloe. aiyoh that kelvin very the lor sor lah... exactly like that fuck face. always ready to dish out suggestions and ideas. screw your ideas lah. i don give shit for them lah!

Future of the Singapore MRT system



click on it to see a clearer view. it looked really, really hardcore...
left his place at 10.30pm and reached home at like 12.10am... his place was really hardcore! as in the place and location and all. it was the uluest place in singapore! anyway, tonight was rather fun! it was really funny and yeah, th ebill worked out to like $15 per person. we had a bottle trigrape red wine and a bottle of really cheap and skankily sweet merlot (kenneth's choice!!) that tasted more of ribena than decent wine.


anyway i'm just too tired to blog. wanna go sleep. dunno if i wanna go to the office tomorrow. really tired and pissed at work.

oh yeah, i'll be posting a probable future of the Mass Rapid Transit lines in singapore. i't sooooo gonna be a nightmare in the future!!

Tuesday 18 August 2009

Sunday 16 August 2009

i have two appointments just now!! wee!! met up with isnita to pass her her policies for her two daughters. FINALLY managed to meet up with her! phew!they had this army half marathon thingy in the morning, so yeah she was able to meet up with me easily. her appointment was a quick one. left at around 11.45am and headed straight for office as i am meeting another friend later.

met regina at 2.30pm and chatted with her about her policy. she wanted a savings plan. i proposed an investment linked plan and a traditional plan. she wasn't convinced that the savings plan could help her reap higher returns as compared to a conservative traditional approach. so she stuck to the traditional endowment plan. her budget at first was $100. then her boyfriend proposed that they share a policy and contribute $200 each. so my production will be $4800++!!! woohoo!!

but i was worried that regina could not sustain the premium payments. we calculated together and realised that she'll be getting only like $600 surplus to spend every month. that's kinda little for a girl.

but anyway, she agreed to settle all of the paper work first and will proceed with the payment in late september. so i'll be getting my commission only in like early october.

yay!! no more eggs in my production!! woohoo!!

Saturday 15 August 2009

tomorrow is jerry's birthday!! suppossed to be celebrating today under his block (very bo liao lor! hahaha!) but unfortunatelt kenneth can't make and nor can i. so too bad lah hor! we'll see about tomorrow, see if they still wanna go out to celebrate his birthday...

Friday 14 August 2009

today was the last day of the god damned roadshow!! yay!! thank god this bullshit is sooo over! anyway, anyway, i am reporting LIVE from The Coffee Bean at Ang Mo Kio hub!! i can't go home now because i just had an office happy hour just now and drank quite a fair bit of alcohol. so i probably reek now. this happy hour isn't as bad as the previous one; we had champagne, sangria, red wine and some orange punch. the food was way better than the previous one too! so yeah its way better than the previous one lah! anyway, ju kim performed for us too! she danced to mickey by lola!! her dance was really, really disturbing. so much so that my eyes popped out of its sockets and i had to be on all fours to search for them! she danced throughout the entire song too, which was like a good four minutes plus lah! she has no dignity, that woman!

anyway anyway, back to the main purpose of this blog; to detail my past day as explicitly as possible. okay, here goes.

reached science park II in the morning at 11.15am. mag was going mad there because she had to set the booth up all by herself. thank god we weren't very late. so we helped her set the booth up and were done 15 minutes later. i then had my brunch at 11.50 am ish. i had a smashing caesar salad with tuna and an iced long black coffee at olio dome. really, really yummy and the chef was really generous with the flakes of tuna. they had really god scones too, tough i didn't had them for brekkie just now. i had the scones for afternoon tea with an iced long black coffee. it was really really nice. the scones weren't plain; they had swirls of strawberry jam in it. it was really really good with some real and proper butter. it would be absolutely smashing with some hot english tea. Orange Jaipur would be a real treat! yummy!

tricia came late so i accompanied her for lunch along with mag at 2pm. by then mag had cooled down and was back to her chirpy and talkative self. i had a slice of papaya and some deceptively sweet papaya juice. i think the drinks auntie added some sugar into the juice. but anyway it was really yummy and value for money.

the crowds were relatively better compared to the previous days. but i didn't managed to get anyone to sit down for the free medical check up. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?? Prudential is offering free medical check ups for your blood pressure and BMI and yet nobody wants to get it checked!?! I mean come on lah singapore, its for your own good. even if you don't wanna buy any insurance after the check, its up to you! we won't pressure you to buy any!!

i then went to meet kenneth up at boon lay. went back to office together. we reached there at 5pm! just nice! the office happy hour has just started! yay! anyway it was really fun and funny! ju kim dancing! mag and grace getting all flushed! mag was exceptionally rosy! as red as a grilled prawn! and she blabbered so much! much more than when she was not tipsy. it was really cute to see them all red! haha!

left office at like 7.40 thereabouts. really sleepy now lah. anyway i'll be going back to the office tomorrow. meeting lynn up to pass to her her mom's Tangs Privileage Card.

i think that's all for now. toodles and goodnight!

ps: don't forget to catch Miss Universe 2009 on the 23rd!! hearts hearts!!

Deliver Me



a really beautiful song. it was actually a song about romance and how one pine and long for one's love. somehow the lyrics were apt for a save the earth theme. so sarah brightman did an eco themed song. that's why sometines the lyrics do not fit the theme well.
the roadshow was just as bad today as it was yesterday. alan was the manager on duty and magdalene was there as well. it was really slow lah. i'd rather do canvassing on the streets to doing this crappy bullshit. i can't wait to start going back to street canvassing.

today was day one of the Don't Start! day!!! its a day i started to prevent myself from committing the same mistake again. me going to meet up with some friends from JAL for some hardcore drinking!!! its only once in a year do my friends from JAL are able to fly to singapore from japan! woohoo!!!

anyway, that's all i think for today. and oh yeah, office happy hour is this friday! can't wait for it!

love you all!

Tuesday 11 August 2009

feel really frustrated with myself. i just don't have the confidence to do canvassing myself. and everyone whom i hooked up to do canvassing with are always too busy with something else. why can't i just do it alone??? everyone seemed to be doing some other thing and everytime i asked them they are always not free.

kenneth is doing his bachelor now. so he's kinda tied up at school. although his school ends at 1 on most days, he's just too lazy to do canvassing with me. i even offered to travel all the way to Boon Lay to do it there (for your information, i stay in Ang Mo Kio, the office is at Newton and NTU is at Pioneer). and the reply he gave me just now? Too lazy to do canvassing. i understand insurance is not going to be his main source of income in the latter years after he got his Bachelor. at least you can accompany me for an hour or two while i do the canvassing. i just need someone to chat to. i just need a pillar to lean on when i'm drained emotionally and mentally.

i understand he has school and all. i'm just really pissed with myself lah. aiyoh. very ma fan lah.
today was my first day for the compulsory roadshow thingy. mine is at science park at Bueno Vista. freaking far from my home / office lah!! what the fuck! and it was so unproductive lah!! so boring and so little people walked past me. it was like a really lousy roadshow lor. thank god the cost was only like $50 for four days. damn freaking cheap for a roadshow (cheapest ever, i think). now i'm contemplating if i should go for the next three days lor. so many agents but so little prospects. i'd rather do it at toa payoh lah!

anyway, i got an appointment with a friend just now! she liked the policy i proposed to her and i'm so happy. but the problem is with the premium payment lor. she has very little money to spare and the premiums you'll have to pay is like 2 months in advance. so the total she has to pay for the first time is like around $288++... which is like a substantial amount for a person part timing and earning like $600 on average. but the important thing is she really liked the plan and how it works! only thing is when can i close her! boohoo so sad...

guess my pay will be like nuts this coming round lor.

but anyway, if you don't know, we agents get our pay twice a month. once on the 10th and another time on the 24th. so last month, i got $550 on the 10th and like $60 on the 24th!! really sad story lah! sekali this coming 24th i get zero moolah! will confirm die one lah! oh man! i'd better start doing intensive canvassing now!!! die ah die ah!

Monday 10 August 2009

this is the way you left me,
i'm not pretending.
no hope no love no glory,
no happy ending

this is the way that we loved,
it feels forever.
and lived the rest of our lives,
but not together.

if anything should happen, i guess i'll wish you well,
a little bit of heaven and a little bit of hell

No Happy Ending

Happy Ending by Mika. its a rather old song. but i love it to bits! first time i watched the video i thought "hey! it's cute!" second time i heard it i cried because the song was too beautiful and the meaning of the song hold dear to me and my life.


Mika - Happy Ending Official Video
after kenneth came by at coffee bean, we headed out for lunch. he wanted to leave by three pm just now because he wanted to pack his stuff up (he's moving house from his house at Florissa Park to an apartment at Braddell Hill). so we had lunch at this new pasar market thingy near This Fashion and Jubilee Entertainment Centre. he had an incredibly light lunch of cheesy mayonnaise fries. i was totally shocked lah!

anyway, after the lunch, we headed back to to the Town Square and kenneth went to cut his hair while i made my way to the mcdonalds' (air conditioning and free internet broadband!!) chatted with kai xin for a while about the class reunion picnic / barbecue / tunch and before i knew it, he's back from his haircut! it was really fast! like only 15 minutes. usually i'd have to wait like 15 minutes for my turn and another 20 to 35 minutes for the jie jie to do her works.

and yeah. we left after that. it was three pm thereabouts. i wanted to help kenneth with the packing, but he insisted that he'd be fine with it himself (rolls eyes) and that he does not need my help. so i went back to PruCafe and resumed by slacking and slugging there. didn't want to go home too early as the "Battlefield Is Not Cleared Of Corpses". so i stayed there till 6pm. irang kenneth up to see how things are and guess who picked up the call? Moo Moo! he was asleep! but good thing he packed his stuff for the hostel. so at least something got done. i quickly left the office after that to head to my next destination, Bishan. i was suppossed to meet david there.

i waited for him for like two hours before he came to fetch me lah! but not bad! he changed his car. it was a hyundai before. now he's driving a bmw. not bad for a mid age dude! we had dinner and some coffee at coffee bean and left junction 8 at 10pm plus. david proposed i stayed overnight at his place as his parents are on an overseas trip and "he's kinda lonely at home all alone". so i tagged along and here i am reporting to you live from david's room in his pyjama on his bed. i think i'll go back home on tuesday evening...

i think that's all for today. goodnight and stay beautiful singapore!

Sunday 9 August 2009

here i am reporting live from Coffee Bean at ang mo kio hub!! waiting for kenneth now now now!!!

anyway, anyway, i was flying my two kites yesterday lah! if you remembered, regina defaulted on our appointment because she needed to do some over time. then when i called isnita, she said we could meet up but she doesn't want to carry any bulky files with her tonight. she's probably going clubbing later. so yeah. both of my appointments defaulted and so i went to marina barrage to fly my kites! haha!

enough of the funnies, yesterday evening while having dinner, kenneth and i met up with jerry. we went back to jerry's place and had some tapas and 2 bottles of wines. left his place at like around 11.45pm. when i reach home, my mom smelt the alcohol and went ballistic lah! when she went to bed later, i could hear her crying in her sleep lah...

i feel so crappy now...

kenneth is being such a sweetie... sigh...

Miss Universe 2009 MY PICKS

hello people! here are some of the contestants! i picked them because i think they have the potential to go far in the pageant and they look really, really good.. these are just my picks and its not the finalised results. it'll be shown LIVE on the 23rd August 2009! so catch it then for the final results and the Winner!!
This is Miss Vietnam. she looks way better than the previous year's entry and let's just hope she speaks better than the previous year's as well.
Miss Venezuela!! She's one of my favourites. Venezuelans always produce goddesses for the pageants.
Miss Turkey. She looks really fresh and vibrant.
Miss Singapore. Damn those jugs!
Miss Panama. She looks really pretty and flirty with that pose. i think she has the potential.
Miss Jamaica
Miss Indonesia. Mis Indonesia has always been very, very pretty. its just that they've not been getting enough exposure from the media.
Miss Guatemala. she looks really really pretty and a toned down version of Miss Venezuela. Not too sexy.
Miss Curacao. Really sexy and love the face! very well defined and sharp!
Miss Belgium. looks like a winner to me!!
Among the girls whom i picked, i'd like to see Vietnam, Singapore, Turkey, Venezuela and Belgium to be in the Top 5. Hope my dreams do come true!!!
I AM AM REPORTING LIVE FROM ORCHARD CENTRAL...

waiting for kenneth lah. he wants to chill around here, so here am i!! supposed to have an appointment with regina at Toa Payoh at 1pm. unfortunately, she has to do a little bit of over time, so the appointment was postponed till further notice. poor girl. DON'T WORK TOO HARD GIRL!!

Anyway, i'm now seating in front of Coffee Bean at OC and am having my usual mocha ice blended ( thanks Elaine for introducing the drink to me! i've been addicted to it for like 6 years already! haha!) i ordered a slice of cake as well as i was famished. i had a Mascarpone Cheese Cake and MY GOD! IT WAS DELICIOUS!! the cheesecake is super smooth and the crust base is not too sweet and delightfully chewy. on top of the cake, there's this layer of apricot jam and rum raisins. aaahhhh... i'm in total heaven! i feel like ordering another slice. ITS REALLY, REALLY GOOD.

PEOPLE IN SINGAPORE, PLEASE TRY THE MASCARPONE CHEESE CAKE FROM THE COFFEE BEAN AND TEA LEAF! ITS TO DIE FOR AND ABSOLUTELY ELICIOUS!

should i order another slice?? really tempted to do so lei. and kenneth is taking so long to come here! ARRRGGGHHH!!! i'm in a dilema now!!

Friday 7 August 2009

MY MOOLAH'S ALREADY IN!!! WOOHOO!!! ALCOHOL HERE I COME!!
this morning, i set a new canvassing record for myself!!

i approached 85 women in just 2 and a half hours!! woohoo! but got no names! so sad lei!

anyway, anyway, today was the graduating class for PSA level 3. i was running late; left the house at 8.30 and the class starts at 9!! to add to the stress, the train ride was really not smooth and so darn jerky. i boarded the train at Bishan and the journey to Newton had like a dozen halts in between! it was so frustrating! i eventually reached the classroom at 10 minutes past 9. and you know what, i was the first one to arrive! hahaha! so much for worrying all the way through the journey!

the attendance today was really poor; only 5 people were present. so zuby, being the kind trainer she is, condensed the class into a half day thing (it was suppossed to be from 9am till 3pm). that means more free time! but as soon as i settled down in the office, i felt really uneasy and my butt felt extremely itchy. i suddenly have a strong urge to do canvassing! so i ringed debbie up and asked if she was still doing canvassing at Toa Payoh. i went there and later set a new record for myself! woohoo! but the sad thing is i didn't get any names! so sad lor!

we came back at like around 3pm in the afternoon to the office. i facebooked for a while and corresponded with kenneth intermitently. he takes for-ever to reply the messages lah. today was his orientation, so i kinda understand his tardiness. we were suppossed to have dinner together at jurong point, but he eventually had his with his new found friends. hehe, he had to draw out money from his 'Ultimate Moolah'! haha! while he had dinner, i did some canvassing outside the mall. it was really stinky and humid! i came back smelling like a night bazaar! really disgusting!

anyway, yeah... that's all for today... really sleepy. need to get some rest as tomorrow's gonna be helluva day; doing canvassing from 9am till 12pm with debbie and karen. followed by a really skanky and cheap lunch with kenneth, then more canvassing with kenneth and vivienne from 12pm till probably 3pm. dunno what i'm gonna do later in the evening.

so boring today. went canvassing with vivienne just now at 12 pm. wasn't that bad. approached 30 people in like 2 hours, which is like super lousy. i should be like approaching 50 people in an hour. so sucky today.

and i feel so lousy today... feel like not wanting to work anymore. and i'm starting to question my satnd in the industry; am i really cut for this?

must be all that brainwashing by kenneth and jerry yesterday.

MY GOD!!

that MDRT thisg was a load of bull! it was totally draggy and so off the topic that we left halfway to sit around at the mall downstairs!

firstly, the seminar is titled, Me, Myself and MDRT. the roped in a guest speaker, Mr Guy Baker from the MDRT Association. from the subject of the seminar, i expected he will share his trade secrets, how he managed to secure the MDRT for 30 years and so on and so forth. Unfortunately, i was SOOO wrong! he talked about investment strategies and the volatility of the market. i mean like come on! we already know what we should know and we don't need extra headaches to the already 'straight forward' investment linked products. we don't need to learn how to calculate the average yeild of a fund in 5 years or why the fund will continue to grow even with extreme volatility. we don't need all that crap! but NOO! he drolls on and on and on about his investments and such! it was such a bore, we left the hall 30 minutes into the seminar.

we came back to the hall at 4.30pm, just in time for the tea break war. it was hazardous i tell you! all the buffet trays were empty save a couple of them. really, really bad situation lah.

overall, it was a complete waste of my time and really unproductive too. i'll never, ever attend any of this mdrt bullshit ever again!
me going for the MDRT seminar thingy later at 2pm. dunno why but i just have to. my manager dragged me to attend the seminar thiny Guy Baker is talking later too. hopefully its interesting lah.

oh, did i mention, my manager Grace is a Life member too!

Sunday 2 August 2009

Really pissed at my mom today! she was making a helluva ruckus early in the morning! all over some soiled dishes. i mean, i don't bother to clean whatever is left in the sink. you may think i'm being selfish, but hear me out first.

after every meal, i will wash my dishes immediately and place them on the drying rack. what the rest of the family does is they will leave the soiled dishes for later. over time, the amount will grow. i do not bother to help them clean the dishes. why should i do that so that they can rest on their laziness? why put something that can be resolved immediately on hold? stupid and lazy people are like that!

really, really got on my nerves lei! so much so i immediately went to shower and brush my teeth and grabbed my trusty bag and head straight for my...er... friend's home. so irritating! i'm gonna stay here till tuesday! i don't give two hoots to that house!

oh yeah and i forgot another thing...

when kenneth called to ask if i need him to tar pau for me i said yeah, just get me whatever you're getting. at first he ordered minced meat noodle and then he realised,"oh! khairul can't eat pork!" and so he changed the order to wonton noodles. such a nice and thoughtful person (but can be a pain in the arse sometimes lah)!

must remember his birthday! 16th January!!
went to SMU just now to look at corinne's roadshow. not bad! the crowd is there and they seemed happy with the crowd diversification. most of them are university undergraduates and there's some spillover from the crowd from The Cathay and some malls along Selegie Road.

so thereafter i came back to the office at like around 4pm plus and had lunch. its wanton noodles. really yummy! and its only 3 bucks! OH CRAP! forgot to pay kenneth! okay okay, i'll pay him back on monday then. anyway we doing canvassing on monday too... so yeah.

anyway i was quite pissed with him just now. he was suppossed to go for tuition later at 7pm. so he proposed we go for dinner then he can proceed for his tuition. but due to our lack of funds, he eventually bought a piece of bread from breadtalk and ate while walking back to his tuiton place at cairnhill circle. really pissed lei! made me walk and accompany him all the way to Paragon from Newton to buy a piece of fuck shit? some more it was such a warm and humid day! i didn't talk to him at all all the way back. i was fuming mad lah!

but i cooled down once i was back in office. because of nicole lah. she chatted with me and yeah, the fire within died on its own. anyway he needs the money to bring his girlfriend out for her birthday tomorrow. haha! God has already punished his selfish act for me! he just got his tuition pay today and he's gonna spend everything tomorrow on his girlfriend! hahaha!

i shouldn't dwell over it for too long lah. no point crying over spilt milk.
kenneth shared a great movie just now. its called Liar Game i think. its japanese and so far it looked interesting. it was about this girl who is too honest for her own good. and she was always being toyed with. sounded sad but it was a really good show... so far. watched only a small snippet of it as i wanted to go home. we stayed in the office till 11pm today! i mean what the hell! so late and yet not doing anything productive! haha! what a waste of time! oh, we shall continue the japanese drama later at 3pm. he said he'll be coming in later today after his tuition (he TEACHES).

anyway, he didn't manage to close the twins' PPA policies last evening. they said they'll reconsider again and wants to consult their GE agent. these china twins are really too much. spent so much ti,e with them and yet they didn't buy anything. takin him for granted! hate these types of people... i mean, if you like the product and you are convinced that the product is good, why compare? you can't compare much within the industry anyway. some companies will charge more for a higher sum assured and unit allocation while others are cheaper because of lesser unit allocation but higher charges. buying insurance is like choosing apples; if you like new zealand rose apples, you'll stick with it for ever. you can't compare a Granny Smith for a Fuji.

oh and i am so darnnn hungry. had my dinner at 6pm just now and now i am famished! there's fried rice in the kitchen but i don't like stall bought fried rice! they just taste like rice fried in monosodium glutamate! even that i can make! i think i'll make a sandwich... ooo! there's tomatoes and some brie cheese! i'll make a tomato and cheese sandwich!! YUM!

well, guess that's all for now!
