"The Day"

Today was another day which i called it "The Day"!!! First up, when i opened my eye, it was like so bright outside the window (bear in mind that i was in morning shift) and it was already 7am! Jesus Christ!!! I was late!!! Slept passed the alarm. In a split second, i tried to reached out for my mobile and it was not there. Had to run to the hall to make the call to workplace to let my colleagues know that i will be late. Quickly got washed up and run down to try to catch hold of a cab. It was raining and when you want a cab sooooo badly, all of them seems to be dissapeared! Was trying so hard to get a cab and the next best thing is .... i saw the bus coming. Ran to the bus stop and hop into the bus instead. Sigh ......... When i reached the workplace, everyone was giving me 'the look' and start asking where i was chiong-ing last night, in my mind was like thinking, WTF, i had never go chiong-ing for like 1 zillion years lioaz.

During the afternoon, in the middle of operation, this PA of our head office's came for lunch. Everyone was like so gun jiong (of course including myself lah). Had to make sure everything was in order. This is when s**t happens (as what my boss put it 'too much cook spoiled the broth'). Knocked over a champagne flute and cut my fingers. A total of 3 minor and 1 deep cut on 2 fingers. Bleed like running tap sia. It didnt stop bleeding even after 1/2 hour and the wound was like throbbing so badly. Made a security report even though my inner self told me not to. Worried that the wound might get infected. Was determined to seek medical advise after work cos scared that there might be bits of broken glass in the wound, but too bad, the seduction of having dinner with all the colleagues at BK overpowered the idea of going to the doctor. Was introduced to this Korean girl (quite pretty and was full of s**t) by the name of Sandra (forgot her Korean name cos its quite chim).

After dinner, went for 'No Reservation' with some of them. Not a bad movie though.

Here is something for us to ponder on : Today i personally experienced a scenario which makes me feel the power of inner self esteem, fear and courage. I have this colleague that was once in war countries and had deal with countless blood scenes. Been in the military as well and was well trained to deal with difficult situations. To me is that, if you can survive that kind of situation, you should be considered a person that is with high self esteem and is a confident person. But when he was approached by his higher authority in his current workplace, his confidence shrink from a watermelon to a watermelon seed. He will feel shakey and blurp out funny things. Even if he knows the answer to the questions, he is too afraid to answer and will definitely said things that he will regret. So, if someone that is with no confidence at all will live in FEAR? (no names shall be mentioned)

To Mr. Pattaya : Found this song by chance and it made me almost fell off the chair. Doesn't quite like it though.
