One of my colleagues tendered her resignation last week, so this whole week was busy taking lessons from her, in other words I became her under-study in preparation to take over the systems she is currecntly handling.
And on the other hand, my mgr told me to put my current project on hold and focus on taking over my colleague's project and he even told me to set my priorties right. What wrong with continuing with my project anyway, my colleague didnt have time for me all the time what. So it seems like it become my fault that I continue to do my project. What should I do then, just daydream and slack huh. Sometimes dunno what this management people thinking.
Anyway with more things to handle now, then I will have more things to hand over when its my turn to go??? Sometimes I really feel like leaving. Why? My project used to be a 2-person project. After my stupid indo colleague request to change team, now its only me working on it. After putting so much time n effort into it, my mgr keeps saying it can be kiv, can be put aside 1st. Hearing all these, really very sian. Dunno do for what also.
Ok enuff of work stuff.
Recently I happen to find out that NUS actually offers a Professional Diploma for (J2EE/Web Services). Not cheap though, $4.2k for 24 lessons. But I believe the cert will be very useful since the IT trend now is either .NET or J2EEE. However the problem is the next course starts on 3 July, but i got ICT from 29 June to 14 July, which means i will miss a few lessons. DUnno whether I should apply for this course or wait for the next one which is next year...
hmm.. got to wait for my ICT training program to come out 1st. I called my NS clerk and he told me mostly likely the scedule will be out next week.
So anyone interested in taking the course as well? Then perhaps we can take the course together =)

Monday problem was a program bug, expected coz its his program. Thursday was an unexplained problem. Duno what the cause also. Anyway, Thursday, there was an implementation, so I was working on it the whole week also. So I didnt spend much time on my usual work. Jialat, got to go for my ICT soon, still got so many things haven do.

A Quiz
I going to give a few description of a person. If you know the answer,please post at my tag board. Thanks.
Question is: Is he/she a he or a she?
Descriptions start:
1) Remember all the things people say, especially things said about him/her. Note: good and bad things are the same, because things that normal people thinks is nothing, he/she thinks is an insult.
2) Angry and pissed off over the slightest things people say, for example: How come you are so thin? How come u are so black? How come u still studying?. Some of this are actually casual remarks or jokes. Petty. Ok this is quite close to description 1.
3) If he/she is unhappy, he/she expected someone to call to ask how's he/she is doing. Note: we do not know he/she is unhappy in the 1st place.
4) Thinks him/her-self is very smart, smarter than normal people. So smart that can grade people's intell. give himself/herself 4 out of 5. others not even 1. sooo clever hor.
5) Thinks nobody in the world understands him/her, and that everybody got somthing againts him/her, be it friends, parents or strangers.
6) Very boastful, thinks and assumes he/she knows everything about everybody. SO smart hor.
7) When talking about anything, be it casual talk or discussion, he/she got to win no matter what. If not he/she will just say, "ok lor, its all my fault, i know". Note: only he/she can be the right one. the rest all wrong. and only he/she can talk and insult people, others cannot. if others do that, he/she will be so pissed.
8) Has a bf/gf, but treats him/her the same way as others. becoz of small things, just ignore him/her for weeks: no replying sms, no calling, no anything. Note: The bf/gf does not know what happen in the 1st place. Record time was 1 month plus, until the bf/gf contact him/her 1st. Note: its the bf/gf who make the 1st move - even though he/she didnt seems to have done something so terrible to deserve this kind of treatment. Where the hell you find such a person?
9) With description 8 in mind, when people ask about his/her bf/gf, he/she doesnt hestiate to show couple foto. Means he/she thinks he/she still got the bf/gf which he/she already been casted aside all these time.
10) This guy/girl has 2 great friends(buddies) of almost 12years. Soon he/she will have none. Why? because description 1-7 was how he/she treated those 2 good friends. His/her bf/gf was also the 2 good friends's good friend. So having seen the bf/gf been treated by someone who used to be their best friends plus having said descriptions 1 to 9, how would you think their friendship will become?
11) Ok the list of descriptions actually goes on, but too long i think. So in summary, this boastful, petty, "smart", selfish, stupid bastard/bitch. Do u think he/she is a guy or girl?
12) Oh,i just want to add this last point. He/she is currently studying. but failed to complete. why? because he/she thinks he/she is too smart. "No need study lah, from sec sch til nw you got see i study before meh?" When he/she failed the exams, he/she will be so pissed, often with others also, including the poor bf/gf. then will start saying, "No point in life, i already know i will be a CPA in the future, there no point doing all these". In summary, he/she has great goals, but he/she nvr put any effort to try and say no point and get so pissed, causing he/she to have PMS 365 days a year. Talk only and no action. Smart? my foot man.
Note: When considerating this points, bear in mind all these descriptions are not made based on one person's views but a lot of people's and its not said out of anger based on just one side of the story but many more sides and lastly, its a true story.
So, those who like to answer this quiz please post your answers. But don't just copy other people answers ah. Please give your own answer. If you know who the he/she is, then lagi best, just post his/her name bah.

PAP won...
Alright, PAP won in my area again. Hope Mr Ong Ah Heng keeps his promises about lift-upgrading, although that's not really impt to me. But at least, something is done better than nothing.
Once again, WP Mr Low and SDA Mr Chiam won their Hougang and "Poto Pasir" area again. This shows that just by saying "we will promise XXX millions to upgrade the area" is not the most impt thing the residents want. Its what the MPs have done in the past and agree to do in the future that matters. If a person is worth supporting, its worth supporting him/her well. Well done residents of those 2 areas.
I keep saying areas because I dunno how to spell that con-di-gen-cy or something. Anyway area means the same lah. haha
The results also proves that our SM, Mr Goh was wrong about Mr Chiam. Being old does not means he too old to be a MP. So long he still does his job well. Our MM is old liao also wad. Having opposition in the government is very impt as we need an alternative views in "parament". If not, the PAP can jolly well pass a rule themselves without even seeking anyone's opinion.
Not that I say PAP is no good. But this GE 2006 has proven that the majority support for PAP has decreased. So why is it the case? This is something for our dear MM, SM, PM, and all the Ms to find out what they have done wrong.
If you have not been to a WP rally, especially the one at Hougang, you wouldnt believe how many people actually turn up. So many people leh. Can be counted in thousands. But still PAP still holds the majority votes. I guess the reason is because the oppositions rallies are more fun to watch and listen since PAP people always say the same thing they say all the time. But people still vote PAP lah.
I wont say who I vote for, since it suppose to be a secret. I hope PAP will make Singapore a better place for all of us and not just PAY n PAY.

damn, i hate my naturally curled hair. just nw the hairstylist say she cut my hair in the way in which my hair wont grow too curly when it gets longer. hope so her words are true.
Just now I did what i do every 1st day of the mth - calcuating how much I have spent last mth and how much i saved. Darn! Spend too much last mth. Lucky got the 700 bucks, but still, got to cut down on my expenses liao. Especially on days like yesterday. Went to Party World ktv two times in a day. Once in the afternoon at Chinatown branch and one in the evening at yishun safra branch. I spend 8 hours sitting in the KTV!! That's one record. Well, that also reflect how much i spend lah. Wah, cannot like that man. I spending more than I earn it seems.
Ok, goal for this month of May. Save save save.

Wow, polling day next sat.
Wow, i so "excited" leh. For the first time I going to do my part as a Singaporean citizen by casting a vote for the party who is going to "take care" of my neighbourhood, Yishun Central, for the next 4-5 years. PAP vs WP. I doubt we really have much of a choice though. One super power party vs a no power party.
Well, i better keep my election thoughts to myself. Scarly, i kena sue also dunno y. So just in case any garmen people reading this post (i doubt so got lah), just a casual comment ah.
Anyway thanks our dear PM, i got 700 bucks from the Progress package. So got more to spend now. I really hope this kind of things don't just happen every 5 years. However, i would prefer lower utilities bills, less taxes, erps, carpark charges and many more lah. I believe many people will agree with me also. So hope our PM has something like this in mind in the near future.
Something to share with people like me, who lives in Yishun and works in CBD. DOn't ever take taxi, even if you are late for work. Why? Because it cost me 23.70 to reach my office. Moreover, i still late. 1 major accident on CTE: Heavy traffic jam. 3 erp gantries: 2 x 1.50 + 1 x 2.5 = 5.50 erp charges. Crazy leh, i take mrt only cost me 1.47 leh. SHould haven taken the mrt instead. Maybe I would have reached office earlier!
Anyway, really low moral recently. Lot of work to do in office and deadline is closing in. I got a ICT coming on end June. So I got to do as much as I can before i leave for 2+ weeks. Low moral also because I still think my pay is too low. Hardly see my account balance growing, though i dun spend much. Then work is kinda boring also. But, but.... Still, I got to endure to Oct when my contract ends. Then see how lor...

Crazy user n sec sch wkend
As you know, I only come back to office on Tuesday as my MC was up to Tuesday. Then I became to focus on a mini project. Finally managed to finish it on Wednesday. Then I carried on to do SIT and prepare for UAT. Suppose to ask my users to come for UAT on thursday,however, my colleague who was supposed to assign the system functions rights to the UAT users was not around. So got to postponed to Friday.
And guess what, this user crazy one. So should I say her boss is crazy. She only did a few simple testing and say everything ok liao. And wanted me to implement the module that evening so that Monday morning they can use. But I still got documentations to do, and the project sign-off document got to go all the way up to GM, but the document got to first go to my development mgr and dept head, and agm.
But this user's boss, also an agm, wanted to go all the way up to GM to get his chop, skipping all my dept's bosses. So when my user asked me if she can do that, I told her that she has to talk to my boss about that. I told my mgr and he just said, "Siao ah, we got IOP to follow, how can we implement the system just like that. We need to plan for implementions and people are still working."
Some users are just like that. Only want things to be done, but got no brains to think. But this got nothing to do with me lah. I only a small fly in the bank.
Anyway, this wkend was quite packed. Friday night went out for dinner @ yishun central n KTV @ party world, yishun. Saturday evening went to Downtown east for a Seconday sch gathering. Meet up with many of my seconday sch frds and had a really nice time talking with them. Then today went KTV again @ safra yishun's party world with a couple of sc sch frds also. Nvr went to ktv with them before, so was quite nice. then again have dinner @ yishun central. After that went to have dessert also.
So this wkend is Secondary School wkend haha. Quite fun. But one ting is, high expenses lah. How i wish every wkend can enjoy like this but dun have to think about money.
Soon got to go koon liao, tmr got to work again.... hope the user dun give me black face see becoz of last friday incident. Not my fault leh you know.

Not realli that pain lah
Well, actually removing the wisdom tooth is not really so pain lah. Just that when i was blogging yesterday, i was just back from the dentist and the numbness was wearing off, with blood ozzing out from the wound. However, by evening time, everything ok liao. Had my porridge dinner without much difficulty and managed to brush my teeth too (carefully of coz).
Today everything fine. Dont have to bite the stupid gauze cloth anymore. yesterday bite until the mouth jaw so tired. then the wound not pain also. just that my face a bit swollen at the side where my tooth was removed. other than that, everything's ok.
So removing wisdom tooth not really that scary or painful lah. Hmmm or should i say it just pain for a while only lah ;p
Nw considering if i should remove one more which is at the other side (right side) anot. hmmm... see 1st lah.
