i have 2 topics today.

1) "My Sassy Client" - refer to chinese version for a clearer definition.
2) "Rules of the game"

------------------------------------------------------

1) I think i have sufficient backup, facts & information to write a book on that. real-life experience. can't be more accurate than that.

2) want to play the game? then follow the rules. and don't regret once u choose to step into the game. Don't get your whiny self involved. i'm telling this to myself.

------------------------------------------------------

i think i'm letting my life spin into a cobweb-complicated level that pimples' popping everything out of control. my frown's there perpetually. my flu's not going away. my post-grad dentist just told me there is a high possibility i'll need micro-implants to pull my bigger, back molars frontwards. HORROR, i scream.

micro-implants - '
Micro Implants are inserted into bone in order to provide an "anchor" to pull the teeth towards. They are used together with fixed and removable braces'

i need some TLC!

Club personalities - unveiled

Recently i have this friend who gets himself drunk at clubs or bars every day in the weekend.

Why?

He cheated on his gf of 13 years. twice.





now i see a clearer picture behind those macho bodies, pretty faces at clubs.

there's a great variety of reasons that drive people to club.


1. Newbies keen to know more
The "noobs". To see and go "wahh"

2. Just wanna have fun or The groupie
These are those who just want to have clean fun. dance and drink.

3. The pick-up or flirt
There to get picked up and get "lucky" with another of e opposite sex

4. The reality avoiders
Temporary measure to forget the problems by getting drunk (and maybe get "lucky")

5. The celebrity
To see and be seen

the difference between an ad agency and a normal company

ad agency:

sharing your personal life openly during work hours is completely normal, regardless of sexual orientation

sex jokes are common

sex is a common "language" of affection

"flirting" openly with the opposite sex is 2nd nature and commonplace - flirting is the new friendly. no flirting = unfriendly.

no significant gender dominance or cluster.

no secret clustering or parties. the more the merrier.

the more different you look from the rest, the more "creative" you are deemed to be.

% of married people in the company = < 50%

normal local company:

your personal life is as private as your closet identity.

common, gender-neutral jokes only

lots of sniggering and hush-hush when talking about the opposite sex

on good terms with the opposite sex is deemed as "liking-each-other" or "flirting" by others

on good terms with the opposite sex is deemed as "you-like-me" by the opposite sex

drinking parties only open to male, unless female openly self-invites.

the more different you look from the rest, the more "open-fire aka suan-ing" you get.

% of married people in the company = > 80%

A New Milestone

Today (ok, yesterday) marks a very important and significant milestone in my life.

i finally passed my driving test! *grins wideeeeely*


3rd attempt. BUT,

i must EMPHASIZE that the 1st 2 times were > 2 years ago. so that doesn't really count. (teeheehee)

Anyway, extremely thrilled and happy (unlike alot of other testees who doesn't seem to be as excited as i was). to give u an idea, i called my family and mgr (cos my whole office is waiting for news of my test), sounding teenager-ish and high-pitched, like as if i've passed some scholarly exam. imagine "i pass!! i pass!!"

i still remember last time when i first took it. i scored a "B3" and even proudly announced it to my then-bf! hahaha...quite funny how i could even score so many demerit points. anyway, now i really appreciate tw, who had been very supportive of everything i did last time. even luffing w me when i told him i got "B3" for driving! :D Anyways, he's an extremely nice guy who deserves a better gal. :)

how did i even start on tw?!

Anyways.

life's so busy and stressful...skin's showing all the signs of stress and lack of sleep. sigh. no makeup can cover up.

just took up a yoga membership. am committed to starting a better lifestyle from now on. for about 2 weeks, i've been attending about 2 classes (1 hr each) per week. slowly, i've gotta increase to 4-5 times so that i can get my $$'s worth!

life will be better, i know! 24 - the start of a whole new exciting, free life. ;)
