This is life. She says.

Still no news from the companies. Why? Am i that incompetent to hire?
Maybe i'm just too impatient. But where can. Other ppl's companies call them back a few days to a week (tops) to let them know the results. Sigh..

What have i done so far? Cleaned the house. Yes, i actually sweeped, mopped, wiped the windows and tables, bed frame, scrub-wiped the fan, clean trash cans... to quote the bf, i was "Martha Steward on steroids". Seriously, with nothing to do after i wake up, i wash up, sweep, if i feel like it, i'll mop. Only thing i dont know how to do is wash clothes. Coz believe it or not, i still do not know how to operate the damn washing machine! Why are there so many buttons? Sheesh.

Apart from these daily domestic past times, i'll coop myself up in the room and watch drama series. I've recently been introduced to this show Brothers and Sisters which i think is amazing! The family dynamics in it truly reflects real life in my opinion. So fun to watch how things go in big families. Sigh.. makes me miss my family even more.

The Great SG Sale is still on, and after being here for almost a week, i am going to proudly announce that i did not spend on clothes and shoes!! Okla, i bought a top from F21, but that's just one amidst all the other temptations! I deserve a standing ovation.

Self praise aside, this is actually because i am trying very hard to tighten my purse strings. I feel really guilty spending money when i still have not found a job. Everything revolves around this one thing.

This morning when i was still groggy from sleep after waving bye to the bf as he was leaving for class, my mum msged me and told me that my oldest uncle (mom's oldest sister's husband) had passed away last night. Sigh. I am still trying hard to grasp the understanding of 'death'. How can one person be there, healthily and the next moment, at the verge of life and then moving on to another? How does that transition period feel?

Whenever we go over to my grandmother's hse last time, this uncle never fails to amuse us, with songs from his time, sayings, teases.. But at 70 plus years old, i guess this is pretty much expected. Part of living this life is knowing that it will one day end.

Tua Ee Tio, may you be well and happy wherever you are right now. Rest in Peace.

Everyone, may you all be well and happy too.

Credible and more stringent companies always take a bit longer with applications. Scrutiny and bureaucracy, can't live without it.

Nice blog. Hate to nitpick but has anyone told you that the font is a bit too light to read?

I graduated from FAM in `06. I think I may have seen you in some inter-faculty public speaking competition in `05.
