work today was uh eventful to say the least.

earthquake at 4+ close to 5. i didnt know it was an earthquake in indo. this wave of dizziness just hit me and in that instance, i really thought that i was going to faint. and i was sitting. imagine if i were standing. May sametimed me to ask if i feel dizzy and i was like YEA! but i thought it was my low blood pressure. didnt think it would be tremors. i didnt feel the building shake. my vision just went blur. and gosh i was so far away. what if i were any bit nearer?

they announced it over the system in the office. i was in the toilet trying very hard not to laugh at that guy's voice. he said that it was 7+. that was bad wasnt it? we shall see the papers tomorrow.

so much for the beach to bahamas, May!


i thought it over and over again. now i get it. i was searching for the one i was with that magical night. and you were searching for the one you were with that same night. if only time had stopped that night. then we wouldnt have lost sight of each other.

no wonder i felt so lost. im sorry it actually took me so long to figure this out.

i just caught paycheck on channel 5 =)

ballet was...i should really start practising. this cant go on. good thing nokia is gonna get out of the way on tues. so that i have time to spare. i cant let work drown my dreams and turn those dreams into nightmares. i cant lose sight. not now.

and the work i brought home is still sitting on my desk. i forgot to bring the logo green sheet home. sigh. i better get in early tmr to do the ir21, hypo tax calc and teq before May gets in with nokia.

alright brain. do me a favour. pls stop thinking.


We were strangers starting out on our journey
Never dreaming what we'd have to go through
Now here we are and I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you

No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected what you did to my heart
When I lost hope you were there to remind me
This is the start

And Life is a road and I want to keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever
A Wonderful journey

I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

gosh i just had the most insane week at work. i never thought it could ever get that crazy. but im so wrong. and rashidah told me thats just the start O_O

the urgent CS ir8es were the killers. CS sent the email to pwc on wed night saying that they wanted everything for the auditors by fri morning. 6 of them with dividends, housing, stocks and pensions in foreign curriencies. plus i had to print and file all the info and li wen had to take time to teach me sourcing the complex one. so with all amendments...it took my entire morning, my entire afternoon, my entire night and the whole of friday morning. more than 1 day. omg. but at least now that ive gotten the hang of things...the other few hundreds shld be easier. i hope. haha. we shld charge them more for urgent cases and i shld get paid more for the stress i was under. hahaha.

after doing so much of nokia and nsn, i told li wen that i will never ever buy another nokia phone so that they wont make profits and wont give performance share awards and then i wont have to calculate all the taxable gains and churn the 8bs. hahaha.

im leading the most unhealthy phase of my entire life. eating lunch and dinner out almost everyday. and surviving on 5-6 hrs of sleep only. i shld try to sleep a little more before i head back to the office this afternoon to file B1s and send out tdos.

oh ya on mon, May brought me out for lunch and Li ling brought darren out for lunch. coz they will no longer be our seniors. officially that is. went to hans. it was nice =) then over lunch li ling asked if im attached. and then May told her: you see the way she works! if she has a bf her bf will make her quit her job!

and shes probably right..work has started to affect my social life. and its only feb. i wonder...what will march be like?

i just went to war today. we were only told that we had to manually check the efiling box of every efiling assignee at almost 4pm. the deadline was 5pm. and i had to do a few hundred. it was pure madness. luckily li wen helped me out with it. i started from the top and she started from the bottom. so when i went to this guy called sameer and she went to tzu ping and found that it was already checked, we turned around and smiled at each other =) we were 3 min late but who cares hahaha.

oh and i knocked the entire cup of milo and it spilled onto my com. i was like li wen! do u have tissue?! then she came over and said how come u spilled already no reaction only ask if i have tissue? i laughed. i didnt tell her i muttered oh shit and stoned for a while before i could react heh.

when i was rushing the efiling thing, may told me that nsn service apartment info came in and i was like #?@$%! i did a little and she passed the rest to her new vt. i just couldnt take it anymore. i really couldnt stay in that office for another second. i was going insane or something.

i still have li wen's IR21 case sitting on my desk and its already 915pm. gee.


it is actually a very simple thing but when two people who both think too much come together, they make things seem very complicated.

i want that sunshine moment to last forever.

so i went back yest to do filing, ir8a and printing and more filing. but i like the office on weekends. u can plug ur ears and walk around in slippers or barefooted =)

marche was gone somehow so we went to nydc for dinner. they didnt have rice. but oh wells the pasta was quite ok. we tried very hard to resist the cakes haha. had a really long talk until 11pm. i wanted to try and sneak into my hse but realised that my mum msged at 1030 to ask what time am i coming home. and just before i stepped into the house, she called me -_-"

on the way up i was trying to think of a reason. i worked late? dinner ended late? i got lost? i still havent given her my explanation yet and i know shes gonna come after me for it. so i better start brainstorming haha.

sometimes when im so emotionally exhausted i like to run the shower. and stare at the falling water drops.

work has been so insane. on tues i ot-ed 6 hrs which meant that i worked for 14hrs! omg im so not human. had to rush home early on wed to rush out vdae gifts. vdae in the office was so dead -_-" kinda missed the whole vdae atmosphere in nj. many thanks to those who gave out chocos =) i spent vdae ot-ing till almost 1030. sheesh. what a way to spend valentines! then yest i ot-ed for a while. michelle gave me the P&G list of 131 files to pull out at 3pm and filing bay closes at 530. that was mad rush! then had to stay for a while to organise the files, send last min tdos and reminders and sort out my work for the weekend.

alright so i came home and then showered, watched a bit of tv, dozed off for 15 min and woke up to brush my teeth then did a bit of sourcing till 12:40am and then went to bed. i actually did sourcing in the wee hours and continued sourcing at 745 this morning -_-" im not getting enough sleep. my body clock is so gone =(

going back later to file CS PB payroll, carpark benefit and churn out more IR8As for NSN. due date 22nd! may said she wanted me to focus on nsn. she will get her new vt to do nokia. nokia is due 26th. and i dont think her new vt can finish that much given that shes gonna come in on mon and need some time to settle down. so i think i will go help out. im so nice right hahaha

so yea they reallocated seniors so michelle and may are gonna get new vts. they kinda slashed my workload by half. or so it seems hahaha. had meeting with senior manager and team leader, soi noi, yest afternoon. she expects us to ot at least 3 nights. which im already doing. kinda weird. she holds a meeting to tell ppl to ot but on thurs night when she saw me in the office she asked how come u are still here??! go home! i told her i had a lot of work - nsn. she said u can never finish ur work! go home! i replied with a laugh. then fri morning she saw me and asked me what time did u leave last night? i said before 1030. and she was like NI AH! heh. oh wells.

soi noi was recruiting ppl so i asked if my sis could come back. i thought her intern was 8 wks but its actually mid may to mid july so dont think she can come back for like 2 wks. gah i was hoping that we could go to work together, knock off together, lunch together...

maybe i'll bring more sourcing home and get her to help me ;) and i told soi noi that i want to extend my intern till july. and she agreed =) denise is gonna bring more rj girls in. this place is gonna turn into some rj place -_-" with the new vts our lunch grp gets so big it gets so segregated. and its only gonna get worse. i kinda prefer the old vt lunch grp. just the 8 of us. im starting to miss those days...

oh and sin jing moved to the other end of team A. no longer in front of me =(

btw that night i went to run...along the way i walked past this grp of guys and one of them went xiao qi is that you?? but i had my ears plug and my mind was somewhere else. so i didnt hear. my maid told me later on. i still have no idea who was that.

im not really an action fan but twenty-four is really worth watching =) they have quite a number of cute guys in there too hahaha XD

went to uncle kim's hse yest. hui min brought her son. wah its been a long time since i last saw her. the last time i saw her she was still single. now shes married with an 18month old son. and hes really chubby with rosy cheeks! 14kg O_O i could barely lift him off the ground -_-" he ran to the chair, climbed on it, and before he could get onto it, he decided to climb down and run back to where he came from. kids.

thomas came just before we left and he thought my bro was my sis's bf. HAHAHA. that was absolutely hilarious!

i think im growing fat from all the cny goodies =(

my parents are gg to japan on 10 march. i wanna go but i cant take leave. pwc will not approve of my leave coz its during the peak period. sigh.

i wanna go shopping today. but my mum doesnt share my interest.

i always look forward to half days in school but somehow half days in office seem way too short. i still have so much outstanding work. i was contemplating staying back just now but last night took away too much of me. worked till 945. it wouldnt have been that bad had i not started from 730 and worked through lunch. i felt really bad not gg for the "reunion lunch" with the rest of the vts. i seem to be missing from the recent lunchs and dinners =X

neways i gave up trying to remember my singpass. requested for them to mail it to me instead haha.

oh and sun ballet..our teacher didnt come. this guy replaced her. and he was quite good. just that the class before us ended late so i didnt have time to stretch so i ached the whole of sun, mon and tues! i thought he was 18 or something. looked really young.

im so hungry lately my dad thinks im growing.

and i broke 2 of my nails from filing *sobs*

i dont seem to be looking forward to cny like i used to. maybe coz i know that cny will never be the same again.

i hate it when parents are around and u are trying to blog or chat on msn.

attacked by red ants last night. we kinda walked into their nests or something. i still shiver when i recall abt it. i cant remember how many times we've walked up and down the same streets for almost 2 hours. must have looked really silly.

i cant pretend that last night didnt change anything. im trying very hard to stay at SQ position without falling backwards knowing that backwards really isnt an option as already experienced before.

WORK! i need michelle back. i really dont mind OT-ing till 11pm.

it actually took me more than an hr to blog this. goodness.

{edit}

it feels kinda unusual that i dont feel anything at all. i feel kinda numb..

i dont know how to fix this thing and my dad's not in. why do i always feel like a total idiot when it comes to technology?

so fast and its sat and i still havent started figuring out fouette jete. my ballet teacher is so gonna kill me tmr =X

last night i was telling my mum how May kept rejecting my IR8A and IR21. coz it is computer generated and she wants me to edit this and that. how would i know? it is the 1st time im generating such forms. and the stupid notes didnt really explain the benefits of a 3 yr admin concession. i told May im confused. she explained without really explaining it. she kept asking me more qns. are we applying NOR? what forms are we submitting? but oh wells ive figured it out myself. reliefs. and i rather not talk about the rest. gets depressing.

i feel like going for a run now. to take my mind off everything. i barely slept last night. but i feel a lot better after talking about it. wells it was a lot better than i expected. just that such things are really difficult to say initially. but im glad you made it a lot easier for me =)

weekends =))

li wen went on leave this afternoon. left me some work but w/o her i'll be so bored =( michelle and anna on leave too. so i only have 1 senior left until after cny hols.

just now i was filing payroll and carrying the files here and there. i turned around to tell li wen that i dont have to go to the gym to lift weights, filing will do the job ;) my arms seriously ache from all the carrying up and down =(

ive been leaving office around 540 the past 3 days while most of vts OT. i kinda feel weird getting home so early everyday haha. submitted timesheet today. my average billable hours per day is 9.7 O_O and i went for a lot of courses the past 2 wks leh. that increased my non-chargeable hours. imagine w/o those courses. sin jing says that seeing that figure makes her think that im being tortured hahaha. and rashidah is jealous heh. mark couldnt believe the no of OT hrs i clocked. i was like i come in at 730 and u come in at 9. that makes 1.5hr diff everyday.

bus ride home was one long hour. heavy traffic. thats why if my mum's not picking me, i will either leave the office at 530 or after 9. she usually works late on fridays coz it is fri night but i didnt have a reason to OT today. most of the outstanding work all done le. i like to clear my work once i get it so it doesnt snowball. all the vts are getting busier except me. i seem to be slacking compared to them haha. maybe coz my seniors all away and i already finished quite a lot the past few wks.

oh and i saw the charging rates. omg. i make one call to iras and speak to the officer for less than 1 min then can bill them $100 when my time cost is like so insignificant. profit margin very high. too bad i dont get bonus hahaha.

and her word choice very strange haha. keeps using suggestive words. desired. intimate. HAHA.

feels like a big step backwards. i still cant get used to it.
