it's only when I'm on the train do I wish I were either pregnant or aged.
anyway you should see the way Singaporeans don't try hard in hiding their glares when someone gives up his/her seat to someone else who, may I add, definitely need it more than they do. it's even funnier when now and then you hear a woman say 'no I'm not pregnant' and then this statement is followed by an awkward silence created by the rest of us. what is a kind person to do, when your good gesture isn't appreciated but instead being taken like some sour insult? I was trying to be nice. honest!
today I found out having a 9 to 5 job makes you fat. it's only after you've sat in front of the computer for hours, removed your shoes and came to terms with the fact that the man sitting behind you won't stop stuffing your mouth with snacks, do you eventually tell yourself hey, a month of this will make me one happy pig.
it's true. Mike had M & S' biscuits, a whole ARRAY of them, and he's passing them to me like keropok. then we have Kelly sitting across from us, and unfortunately she'd just came back from Thailand so we've got some weird-looking wafer-thing to eat too. and my God! some of my colleagues decided to bring slippers to the office, and they wear those around the whole day which makes them look so silly. can you imagine adults acting like that?
I looked like a saint next to them.
oh but I have to add, I walked around bare-footed cos I didn't bring no slippers to work. haha!
and today I had a laughing fit with Queen cos Sunny's been on the phone with Thai clients the whole day, and even though the people on the other line have been an ass, my new friend remained patient and pleasant and it was too tempting to not eavesdrop and waste potential fun.
Sun: can I talk to your design department?
Sun: no not IT. deeessiiiggnn.
Sun: I is calling from Singapore.
Sun: no not IT. design. d-e-s-i-g-n.

Sun: no no, it's d-e-s-i-g-n.
Sun: design, design. you know design?
*long pause*
Sun: aaahhh yessss.
all of us: AAAAHHHHHHH
so yes, tomorrow will be a good day. =]
