did you know that if you went to www.blogger.com and searched for "xiu ming", this blog will turn up? i swear nothing around in this world gets any privacy anymore. (ya i know i put all my details on the blog anyway)


work's been great. now that i've actually made friends in the office, i really look forward to lunchtimes and after work hours. to be honest, when i'm home after work, i start to will time to go faster so i can go back to work again. but it seriously sucks that just when work starts to get fun, the fun's gonna disappear again cos we're all leaving soon. and i don't see a point in like asking for contact details because i can't imagine us contacting each other ever again. so yeah i guess i'm really dreading the day when all this ends. (this coming friday and then two weeks after)


we watched pathfinder together two days back, me bailu waiyip edison and michelle. it's a forgettable movie. just tons of killing going on. bailu was totally freaked out (like sinyee when she watches horror movies. just start screaming and grabbing ppl's arm.) but anyway, LEWIS, IT'S YOUR KIND OF GORE. i think you'll like the show. speaking of which, i've got to introduce you to waiyip. he's like practically your twin in terms of mannerism and like, speech. "wahlao, you don't have to go one big round just to praise yourself can" and the "WHAT." sounds just like you lews. haha.


i applied for ntu accountancy after much deliberation. it just seems more practical to me. bread over interest, plus if i were to do business the risk of not getting the course that i'm interested in is too high. and anyway according to 23/3/07's ST front page report, top accountants in the private sector earn an average of 3.72M a year. (if you want to see it's my current DP) eh come on. if i ever earned 3.2M a year, i'll quit after working for 3 years la. hahaha. enjoy early retirement already. YES. i aim to retire by 45 la. and laugh at edison who's probably still slogging hard to become a principal. hahaha. if you're still contactable that is. (not like you'll ever see this anyway)


heading over to taiwan (yes, again) in end may with sy sk and yw (who i practically begged to come as to balance the bimbos haha). hope it'll end up as a really good shopping trip instead of like .. other stuff that i can totally imagine happening. mm.


happy birthday Man! may your birthday wish of getting your hair back come true. (highly unlikely.) maybe you want to try some fertiliser. haha

How to tell if you've been doing office work for too long:


1. you walk into the filing place and can go straight to where the files are, even if they are in unusual places (not in alphabetical order).


2. you turn on your laptop at home and immediately click "my computer" to access the G drive (like in the office; to retrieve office documents).


3. you see the name "doreen" appear on msn and immediately think of your colleague.


4. you don't feel paiseh to argue with your manager about how the alignment in the letter should be.


4. you take as long as the perm staff do to eat lunch (i.e. always come back at 1.30 no matter what time you leave the office), and don't feel bad about it.


5. you don't bother to go to work early anymore. (and try to leave early hahaha)
