4 pm on a friday n my colleagues have work overload.. poor chaps.

some clients are really unreasonable. monday is deepavali, a public holiday, and they want to sign an agreement on monday, and will only be sending out the agreement this evening! its ridiculous, so they expect us to work over the weekend, and come back on monday with comments on the agreement, n then to witness the signing of the documents. i mean, don't these pple have a life?? even if they don't have the holiday (as they're in another country) they can at least try to understand that we're having a public holiday in singapore, isn't it? blood china pple can be damn unreasonable..

i mean, not like i'm affected, thank God. in fact i'm so free today I was on facebook n youtube n hotmail n now i'm blogging trying to kill some time until 6 pm when i go off. i mean, its really unbelievable for some pple to demand n expect u to work overtime like that. i hope my clients or the pple i deal with aren't so anal n crazy.. hongyee get to escape cos he's going back to KL to celebrate his birthday, Ruby is going to hongkong, so only my boss n shuhon n the secretary coming back during the weekend..

but on a seperate note, i really am sleeping from quite a full lunch, i can't see my boss becos she's so freaking busy running from meeting room to printer to her room, i think they're having a meeting now, along with a conf call. i think its quite ridiculous earlier, there were like 6 of them cramped into a small room having a conf call when they could've just moved to the meeting room.

anyway my firm is gonna have some renovation as the litigation department is coming over from the other side. good thing is, we don't have to move to club street. bad thing is, the corridor might get smokey, knowing the smoking habits of the litigators. plus there are going to be more pple walking up n down the corridor, means less privacy n harder for me to slack off liao. haha! but at least i won't have to change mrt at raffles to tanjong pagar and wake up 15-20 min earlier anymore.

weather has been really shoik for sleeping recently, thats why i woke up at 8.40 am this morning, instead of my usual 7.30 am! i overslept for an hour n was late for work, reached office only at 9.30 am ,but thankfully boss was so busy i don't think she noticed. =P or at least i hope she didn't notice. she's in a really foul mood now, no doubt from the arguements going on in the meeting, plus the fact that she'll have to come back to work during the weekends. puikwan n i don't dare to look for her to vet our documents, when she is in a mood like that! this sucks big time, that means i can't do anything the whole day until i clear my stuff with her.

oh well, now its already almost 5 pm, so in about 1 hours' time i'm packing my stuff n waltzing out of here.. to go for cell group. sigh. if not for the obligation, i wouoldn't go liao. more n more i find it quite a waste of time, time which i can spend enjoying myself with friends, clubbing, or doing more normal things which pple my age does. i suppose the fellowship is supposed to help, but i'm not exactly close to the CG pple either, aside from Qingni n Soohuei. complaining isn't gonna help of course, n changing cell group doesn't help either, so I'm just going to see how it goes. its like, i'm losing all interest in the typical CHC lifestyle. not that i'm losing interest in God, I still pray n seek Him n i do enjoy biblical theories n bible study which intrigues the mind (and not some repetition of principles which i've already been taught), but there's just so much reluctance to participate in CG stuff. its like, how do i put it nicely, an obligation n no longer a joy. well they always preach discipline, forcing yourself to do things because you know its good for your spirit, i can't remember the exact steps, but i think its decision=>duty=>discipline=>delight, or something like that.

i know i'm making the right choice to continue to struggle to go for cell group n bible study, but having no motivation isn't gonna help me struggle for very long.
