Argh. I'm stuck. It's raining cats and dogs. No, scratch that. It's raining Siberian Tigers and Tibetan Mastiffs. and i've just got one what. normal umbrella to fight all that fierceness.

And i don't like auditors who look over my shoulder to see what i'm doing on my com. too curious. it's just like teachers who look over the shoulders of students to see the exam script. too darn distracting. So... auditor friends who read this, pls also dun be kaypoh and try to look over the shoulders of the ppl in the firm(s) you're auditing k...

so well, i turned the ringtone vol up to 6. hey, i'm half deaf ok... really no kidding and i say it with a straight face. so anyway, i turned it up... and my phone flashed this: "Warning! Loud ringtones could damage your hearing." i've got a nanny phone alright...

Taking a nice long afternoon nap on a Sunday afternoon is such a luxury. Especially if it's cold/cooling and I can snuggle under my covers without even switching on the fan.

So anyway, here're my results.

"You would be very happy in a career that utilised your level-headedness, and allowed you to work mainly on your own. You want a career that allows you to be creative, without having to be involved with lots of people. Some careers that would be perfect for you are:
  • Artist
  • Historian
  • Banker
  • Novelist
  • University Professor
  • Photographer
  • Vet
  • Paralegal
  • Graphic Designer
  • Online Content Developer
  • Webmaster
  • Producer
  • Managing Director
  • Nutritionist
  • Advertising
  • Nursing
You like working and being alone. You like to avoid attention at all costs. You tend to keep to yourself, and not interact much with the people around you. You enjoy spending time with a few a close friends. You like to listen to others, but don't like sharing much about yourself. You are very quiet and private.

You are very practical, and only act after thinking things through. You don't like being forced to answer quickly. You have to evaluate the situation completely. You make decisions based on what you can verify with your senses.

You like to be deeply involved in one or two special projects. You like to be behind the scenes. You are very logical and fair. You feel you should be honest with others and protect their feelings.

You trust your gut instincts. You are easily inspired and trust that inspiration. You are very innovative. You analyse things by looking at the big picture. You are concerned about how what you do affects others. You worry about your actions and the future. You tend to use a lot of metaphors and are very descriptive and colourful in your choice of language.

You are very creative, and get bored easily if you don't get to express yourself. You like to learn new things. You don't like the same old routine. You like to leave your options open."

random thought 1

(pause)
jase: u believe that?
jan: ya, why not? (i had a poker face)
jase: u were just smoked la! and by the one who cannot lie somemore!!!

random thought 2

producers of budget karaoke videos should seriously consider all things. like if you star a 'pregnant' woman, pls, make sure the string that holds the pillow to her body cannot be seen. and the straight edges of the pillow cannot be seen either. same goes for the corners. disturbing la. which baby is rectangle shape i ask u? or which womb is rectangle shape?

random thought 3

you don't hold an event at an atas place like the arts house, then serve food on paper paper plates that would leak with gravy, especially when you're trying to convince others of your professionalism.

random thought 4

what use is a handphone if you don't pick up your calls? what use is the short messaging system if you don't read your sms-es or reply to sms-es? what use is your blackberry if you end up even less communicable?

random thought 5

i seriously need more black skirts. way way more black skirts. that fit. and that flatter my body shape. and that goes with my black suit jacket(s). at times like these, being small is such a fantastically big disadvantage...
