emotions

lately i've been a little flustered up coz of the absence of a maid at home.. it's a long story.. but i've juz realised how spoilt i am after all the defence when pple try to imply that i'm one.. a week without a maid has been emotionally traumatic for me.. not only coz that meant that i've gotta do make do with not having breakfast on the table for me every morning, not having clothes back up on the shelf nicely washed and ironed, not having dinner on the table every evening i get back.. but also coz i can't juz forget abt everything and live in a pig sty coz my mum will end up doing all the work.. and when my mum is stressed out.. that's not sth very nice to see.. so it's been housework for me for the past week.. and realising how fortunate i was for the past 20 years that i did not live one day without a maid.. until last week..

now everything's back to normal.. or almost back to normal.. other than having to teach the new maid slowly on the normal operations at home.. and trying to overcome the language barrier.. but of course life's much better now.. at least i don't have to make sure that i bring out the key all the time coz the door will not be locked when i get home.. :)

not helping out was the fact that i've been busy with school stuff.. namely oweek and flag.. flag was a day long thingie.. and i was the driver.. yes i was one.. i dunno how i managed to survive that.. but it was also an emotionally traumatic experience for me.. i specifically mentioned that i'm not too good with directions.. asking them to only give me the area i stay in.. orchard, somerset, and bukit timah.. which they did.. but somehow or another most decided that ryan's area was a much better area to flag.. i sent one grp of them from orchard to cityhall.. and picked another supposedly in somerset from bugis.. and the route i travelled to connect the 2 has been rather unorthodox.. till now i still dunno the way to connect the 2 without paying erp.. oops.. considering all that kap was a much friendlier place to do collection of cans.. but i thank all of them for the cooperation by calling me one after another.. the silent cooperation.. haha..

oweek ended yest with the conclusion of dean's evening.. of which i was said to look like everything.. bad tempered, angry, sleepy, tired.. but actually i was in a good mood and was very high.. haha.. don't ask me why the contridiction.. other than sentosa games that day which marked the oweek which made the difference, i thot dean's evening last night had not been the best, but it was a commendable effort from us all.. frankly oweek manpower never was enough.. and the lack of experience pple had made some overlook details and made things super last minute.. but of course with help from each other things would and did turn out alright.. i got to noe some frens, got to noe others better while working with them.. and these frens seem like those u're at ease when u're with them.. no need lots of effort to maintain coz they are juz in close proximity.. while of course they having fun scaring me coz of the plain darkness backstage.. haha.. and it seemed like another of those times when the seniors are having fun among ourselves.. (another was sentosa having fun dunking pple in the sea)

had tarot card reading yest which i was courageous enough to be the 2nd to try.. heh don't need to queue up.. haha.. it sounded too good to be true.. love life, career, success.. of course turn away from ur worries now.. and go ur own path.. sounds super generic i noe.. but i choose to believe because when u believe, it'll come true in the end.. =)
