Nightmare!!

I had a horrifying, freaking, fucking atrocious dream last night... of all things on earth, of all things that I wish to dream of sometimes, of all things, why god? why??

So i dreamt of giving birth! fucking hell, yeah I did! to make the dream even worse, it was a baby boy!!!! fuck!!

it was a long, detailed dream that I really really hate... it freaked me out big time.. eventough I know that the dream actually originated from the movie I watched last nite, but still??

I woke up the moment I saw the freakin baby's face and the moment I knew it was a boy.. went to the loo, washed face etc and continued sleeping..

and the freaky freaky dream continued!!! only it decided to rewind back to the moment I was pregnant and was in hospital about to deliver!! freaking shit!!! i totally forced myself to wake up and never slept back!

damn it!

Men #10 (i think, lost count..)

Yesterday while I was having dinner in front of tv, my mom in a cheerleader tone, happily announced to me "hey, guess what? your good times have come!"

Choking on the food a little, and smelling something fishy, I didn't bother looking up or asking what in the world that suppose to mean...

But of course, she being my mom, didn't get it!! So she went on with her story... "you know, since last week, one by one proposal keep coming!"

taa daaaa... so the game or war is back on now...

but as usual, i didn't react or retaliate! i did what do I best, ignored and pretended like I am deaf and dumb..

but i know, the bomb is waiting to explode... the clock is ticking.. and its fucking annoying...

and I blame fucking BONELESS, BRAINLESS & IDIOT men for all this!!! why cant they fucking find their own girl and get married to??? why the fuck, someone from the great men species would let their mommys find them a girl?? are they born without balls or what???

Go find your own fucking girl or go fucking die! period!

Despite having a sucky day at work, this one woman I spoke to earlier, managed to crack me up!

So this person I wanted to speak to wasn't around and the secretary wanted me to leave a message.

(in a stuttering tone)
Her : You name?

Me : Lilo

Her : Can I get number phone you?

(that's when I went blur!)

Me: Sorry?

(adjusted her voice, very slowly repeated)
Her: Can... I... Get... Number phone... you???

freaking god! thats when I did the malay translation in my head, "Nombor Telefon kamu?"


hahahaha, whoever u r, thank you for makin me laugh today! :)

On shaky ground

I always thought this would happen to me while I was in Jakarta. But I guess, when you least expect it, surprising things happen!

I experienced my first earthquake in Manila last week. It was not a puny one either. It was a hefty 6.2 on the Richter's Scale.

Whenever I asked people what an earthquake felt like, they'd always say they felt giddy. I didn't really understand until I experienced it myself. It was all over in less than 10 seconds but every second is crystallised in my memory - maybe because I was absolutely calm through it all and I thought it was almost funny! Let me start from when I got back to my desk on the 7th floor of my 22 storey office building after lunch.

Suddenly feeling giddy!

Me thinking to myself: Whhoooaaa!! What did I have for lunch? ~~giddy!!~~ Please don't embarrass yourself by fainting in the office!

Than I realise that I'm shaking, the chair I'm sitting on is shaking ... I turn to the Swedish guy beside me.

Me: Is it an earthquake?

Swedish guy: I think it is! (looking wide-eyed and laughing)

Me: Really??

A random Philippino in the office: Look, the blinds are swaying!

Me: So do we go downstairs?

Swedish guy: Yeah I think so.

Other Philippinos are already leaving the office. By this time the shaking had stopped.

So I get up to leave the office and see my friend from Malaysia returning from the Gents.

Fellow Malaysian: Where's everyone going?

Me: Earthquake la...we have to evacuate the office.

Fellow Malaysian: Earthquake meh? What earthquake?

Me: You didn't feel it??

Fellow Malaysian: No la...where got?

Me: Never mind.. we all have to evacuate - safety procedures.

We walked down the 7 flights of stairs and spent about an hour outside the office building, drinking Coke and making friends with other locals who told us that they hadn't had an earthquake this big in sometime. A group of men smoking opposite our office building told us they saw the building swaying slightly during the earthquake.

Finally after the security team deemed the office building safe, they allowed us to go back inside.

The next day...

I sat on my chair at my desk and it rocked a little to the side..

Me: Oh fuck! Earthquake!

... than I remembered my chair had uneven wheels at the bottom.

It obviously took sometime for the reality of the earthquake to sink in!

Back in the market..

I had my first interview today.. after a very long break... I really dont know how I fared. I wasnt really prepared. Thanks to the HR Manager who claimed it was just a chat! (my foot :p) And since it was a phone interview, I couldnt really read his reactions.. So, now I got to just wait... for the phone call.. for the email...

I do badly need a job, but I dont know how badly I want this job... I still cant decide.. But i think the offer letter alone would make me feel good..

So yeah, I would like to see that.. I shall worry about the whole Singapore thing later.. if I am even hired...

I've got another interview coming up... That's in sydney.. sounds more exciting... I'm looking forward to that... Keep ya fingers crossed for me..

So yeah, that puts me back in the market.. Anyone know of any vacancy? feel free ppl...



Cheers,
Lilo
