Scare of my life

I just got the scare of my life. I was at my gradma's place this afternoon, and while I was playing wii in the living room, I heard a loud thud on the floor. I immediately rushed to the kitchen, only to find my grandma lying on the floor motionless. I was so frantic, I kept calling out for my grandma. My young cousin was around in the kitchen. I must say that luckily that I was around today, can you imgine what would have happened if only my young cousin and my grandma was around. My grandma was lying motionless on the ground, I really thought she was going to go then, I was so frightened, I asked my cousin to call anyone he could think of. But at this time, my grandma just kept telling me not to call others (probably she remembered that my aunt was on the way to her exams, so she didn't want to worry her). I let her rest on the floor for a while, till she was a little more sober, before helping her back up to sit on the ground.

Apparently, she wanted to make some milo to drink, so she went to get a packet of milo. And just as she took the packet, she felt giddy and suddenly just dropped on the floor. The look on her face reminded me of the HK drama's that I've watched, with people on the verge of leaving the world. I was really really scard then. I really love her too much for her to leave like that. Luckily she gained back her composure. I think I will go to Guanyin temple tomorrow morning to pray for her well being, then go over to her place. Come to think of it, my non-renewal at MS is a blessing in disguise, if I was still working, I wouldn't be at her place this afternoon, and god knows what would have happened. Take care grandma, get well soon. Love you.

Sports week

Welcome to sports week. This week (as you know now that I'm unemployed again) I'm gonna be engaging in all sorts of sport activities. Making use of them to fill my super free time. Today I went swimming. Even went all the way to YCK for swimming, hahaha (well the journey would kill some time off). So I did my laps in the pool. Didn't want to swim for too long because my car was illegally parked, so I wanted to rush off after my swim as soon as possible. So I swam for about an hour, then I headed for the showers, and this was when the trouble started. I left my bag in the open and went into the cubicle for my shower and when I came back, ta-dah, my bag was missing. Someone had obviously taken it. I searched the toilet and couldn't find it, so I went over to tell the pool instructors about it. They told me to check the toilet again because no one had left the pool in the past few mins. So I went back to the toilet and searched. I finally found my bag hung on the door of the last cubicle of the showers. Fuck man, what a day. I went through my stuff and found that my money was missing. Luckily for me, before I went to the pool, I had decided to leave my HP and wallet in the car. My passport was also in my bag, which I also left in the car. I only took $2 with me. However, I also had some Ringgit with me, about M$70 or so. Fucking bastard took all my money. Initially I had tought of taking out the Ringgit as well, but didn't do it. Damn it. Well count myself lucky to have taken out majority of my stuff, minimised my loss by a big deal. And lastly, I just want to say, fuck you bastard, go get a life (and a job). Hope that you get knocked down by a car while on the way home. Fuck!

Sicko

Forgot to blog about what happened earlier as I was walking back from the MRT. I just crossed the road from White Sands, and this old man (about 40s) called out to me. It seems like he knows me or something, but I do not recall at all. Then he said that he was the army driver, ask me can remember a not, hahaha what a joke, from that instance I knew that a scam was in the making. Firstly I wasn't even from the army, hahaha. Then he started chatting about how am I and what I was doing, so long never see me already, change a lot. And then he went in for the kill, he said that his mum just passed away and that he needed money for the funeral, but his pay is only coming in tomorrow, so ask if I can lend him and he transfer to me tomorrow. What a fucker right, to use his mum's death as a bait. If I was his mum, and I was still alive I would castrate him straight away, and if I was really dead then he better watch out on the streets, I'd strike him with lightening. Of course I gave my excuse of not having money with me, and I didn't have my ATM with me. Anyone who is reading this, pls becareful, times are bad, more of such people are bound to be out, do not be the next target to fall into their trap.

Goodbye MS

3 months has gone by so fast, my contract if officially up today (erm, actually its supposed to be sunday). Had a farewell lunch with my team today, Terrence took the bill. We had chinese food at the rest on the 4th floor of OCBC. It was actually pretty good food. I was totally stuffed at the end, and the bill was only slightly over $100 (for 6 persons). Think its pretty worth it. Later in the afternoon, I went around to give out chocolates to everyone in the team. Of course some people still don't know me, but I still gave anyway, since we're in the same team, and they've seen me around in office all the time. Nice people la.

Will be going out for drinks later with the MS gang (farewell gathering?? haha, I think its just another excuse for a round of drinks). So its goodbye MS, good luck to all my gang, cya all around some time!

End of chapter one


Tomorrow marks my last day in office. My first job after graduation, lasted 3 months and now its over... time to look for another job... well I wouldn't say I had totally wasted my time there, I've learnt quite a bit there and I had a very good working relationship with everyone (well almost everyone, as I am, I don't blame anyone for this outcome, just that I have learnt a lesson not to be so naive) whatever it is, there comes a time for us to move on. There will be people I will miss and there will be times where I will recall my time in MS. So good luck to all my colleagues, till we meet again.

Bolt


I've promised my cousin that I'll him to watch Bolt. Well since I'll be super free after this week, so prolly next week. But now it seems that there is a 3D version of the movie. As in you have to wear those special glasses and the entire movie just comes to life in front of you. I think it'll be pretty cool right. But its only showing at limited cinemas and it'll probably cost much more than the usual ticket. Having said that, I am quite tempted to try it out. Geez...


Ok, I know that the dog, Bolt is the main character in this show, but this fat hamster, Rhino is so damn cute, hahaha. Don't you just feel like squeezing him... wahaha

5... 4... 3... 2... 1

Now is already 12.30 am in the morning, and it marks the beginning of the last 5 days I have in office. So not only is it a new month, it is also a new beginning for me... After this week, I'm officially unemployed again...

Well just went to JB with William today, had to be stuck in the jam for an hour an a half there, damn it man... the people up there should really do something about it. As usual we went to look at DVDs and games there. Nothing much though, didn't buy alot of stuff. Yup, but Ravin Rabbids 3 is out, wahahaha. Super cool game, its so irritatingly cute... absolutely love it. These rabbit-look-a-like things are just super irritating. The sound they make, their look, everything about them is just irriating. But thats the things that makes them cute. The games are mostly dumb and stupid, and thats what makes the game fun. Really recommend this game to anyone out there. You might not be used to making yourself look silly initially, but just get over that barrier and you'll see the fun in the game and the laughter it brings to everyone.


Also I went to Sitex 2008 yesterday with my mum and bro. My bro wanted to buy the guitar heros world tour. Something he has been eyeing on for the longest time. So he's finally bought it at the fair for 279. Think its slightly cheaper than usual, but only slightly. And I must say, this game is super man. It nothing like raving rabbids. Guitar heros is a music game, initially it only incorporates the guitar in the game, as in there's an actualy pastic guitar used to play the game to simulate the strumming action. GH World Tour now incorporates the drums and vocal as well. So the entire set comes with a drum set and a microphone. Very cool game, its just like having your own band in your house. You can jam away in your very own living room. But all of the songs are english. As most of you know, my knowledge og english songs is very limited, so I can't really sing to majority of the songs.If only they came out with a chinese version of it, with band songs from Mayday and the rest, that would be great. For myself I bought a 640GB harddisk from the fair, got it for $129 (it comes together with the casing, so I thought it was not a bad deal). Finally I can free up my lappie of the memory. My lappie's memory was really running low man, this harddisk really saved my lappie. I didn't even dare to switch off my lappie during the last 2 weeks because of this (there were a few times when my memory was close to full, and I switched off the comp, and it could not start again). Luckily this time it didn't happen. Phew, now with my harddisk, that gives me my new found memory, I can start downloading (my porn) again, hahahaha....
