Wasn't in the best of condition when i reported for work.
The sluggish, lethargic feeling that goes hand-in-hand with the weather.
Was supposed to meet Ad for dinner before work but couldnt make it due to some VERY last minute errands.. and i still couldn't believe just how many pple are swarming in an ulu mall like Raffles City. Makes walking around a chore. Seriously.. and I am still fathom by Singaporeans' buying behaviour.. You see some pple walking around SWEEPING stuffs into their baskets/trolleys/bags.. It's as if Santa is giving out freebies for xmas..

Work aint really worth mentioning save for some issues that i guess i have to somehow find a way to make public to save trouble.. Today's real cute act of hint-hint after all things end doesnt bring across a clear message to me. I like it when someone senior or more knowledgeable about a particular area tells me straight in MY face that maybe i should or can try to say/react in a programmed way to save time/trouble, just in case anything happens.. You tell me, i listen, i act accordingly.

If you don't speak to me in MY face, i would NEVER know what i did wrong, or which ways i can improve on and would simply keep doing what i did.. Like i say, hinting doesnt work on me. that's worse than one-way communication. Imagine i put in 100% effort everytime only to find that pple doesn't like the 100%.. Maybe they prefer only 70% effort and another 5% that is sth of their expectation.. If i'm unaware, I'll never do the 5 that others think i should do.. and my 30 would have gone to waste.

Seriously, i dont think i'll break down easily in front of others, nor do i have pride too much for me to handle.. Words dont really hurt me. Words of work anyway.. so others should tell me off if need be.. Work is an area i am proud to say i have the least control yet most optimistic attitude towards.. Like i always say, if i cant find the passion, work is just an avenue for money.

and I only need to convince myself. See, that's the challenge.
