It wasn't until a few months ago that I realised I am quite a bit of a perfectionist.
This realisation came when it suddenly daunt onto me that it doesn't take one to be near perfect, on the basis that no one is perfect, to be accepted into wherever/whatever they want to be.
I am now trying to ask lesser of myself, things and people around me.
No doubt a really difficult task. you know? to force yourself into accepting a lower standard for everything. but because I know being a perfectionist puts me at a losing end in life, there is no other choice.
and no, I wasn't inspired by the MCYS funeral advert.

"答案是 The Answer Is..." 新加坡演唱会2009
I knew it, shit.
Regret it right after I saw these pictures:
I regret not going for Yanzi's The Answer Is... concert.
Regret it right after I saw these pictures:
The wonders of the 3D stage, with holograms and more...
I'm not exactly sure myself why I didnt attend it. The ticket weren't heavenly-priced like I expected, it's affordable. Or was it due to the absence of a second person to get me excited about it? Well actually, I didnt even bother to look for that person either. But to a 8-year fan, all these shouldn't have mattered.
演唱会的吸引力是气氛。这场演唱会，气氛十足。同时也意义非凡。
因为她要证明很多事，交代很多事。
This concert is the one and only experience of a Stefanie Sun concert, the next one will never be able to outshine this one. It will not be more magnificent, more meaningful, more heartwarming than this one ever.
And I'm sorry I missed it.

Mod planning!
Something rather unbelieveable.
I'd started the preliminary round of module planning!!
Nah, I'm not THAT kiasu. haha, just that I have nothing more constructive to do to while my time during work.
And then, the thought of enduring a sem like before shudders me.

The Past and Present.
Living in the past is so much easier than living in the present huh.
Basking in your past glory beats striving hard in reality.

WHAT THE HELL!
On a bright sunny morning, I stepped out of the house happily going to embrace my to-be job. The bus came just when I reached the busstop and to think that I went: " Oh my, it must be my lucky day today". How wrong was I.
At the company, I was ushered to some random room by two nice ladies (this was prolly the only nice thing that happened). The person who was supposed to attend to me/newcomers was on medical leave. After staring into space and meddling with my phone for 20 or so mins, another lady came in, by the way, she didnt look nice at all. She delivered the bad news when she actually said: "But we didnt hire anyone!". I showed her the contract.
After another 5 mins or so, my phone rang and the bad news was confirmed bad. lol. The agent actually said that the company's project was cancelled and funding has been rejected and I was ta-dah, rendered jobless. The company had forgotten to inform the agency and hence I wasn't informed too. Well, this is what they claimed. By the way, the lady didnt even come by to apologise. In fact, I didnt see her after that at all. How polite.
Boy, was I angry! Very! I argued with the agent and after 3 calls, I guess I lost despite putting up a good fight (I think at least lol). The conclusion was no compensation for me. Despite the terms in the contract, written black and white, that I have my rights and should be duly compensated. There's nothing I can do actually. I can't believe it.
One day's pay isn't worth taking the issue to MOM. Which, btw, I think is what the agent was playing on.
What a day.
Hell angry and feeling ever more unjustified.

You know I never know what to put on my birthday wishlist? That is partly the reason why I never had a wishlist.
But well, I just found something to fill it with!
I see it at mrt stations (yes, open your eyes big big) and just on the net.
THE SIMS 3!
Ok I have no idea why but I can always play this game for the longest time and not get sick of it. Started playing in secondary school and since then, The Sims will just pop up in my mind every holiday. Yes, every. And after all these years of playing, I have never owned an original Sims cd partly due to its damned expansion policy). Ahha! Now The Sims 3 will play the trick.
But oh! my birthday is over for the year.
HOW?
