av98m SG ok, tonight I shall not procrastinate anymore and go look for a higher capacity memory card for my phone
Rhonda SG I have risen, but I am not shining! My muscles are still aching like crazy and I am so tempted to take sick leave again because I don't think I can lift and what-not with the patients today. Sigh... I think I'll just turn up for work later and pray to God that it'll be an easy and quiet shift.
ShrodingersCat SG i am awake. Can't sleep whole night cos of stress This semester is really getting very overwhelming. So many assignments and so little time.
the Bear SG if everyday was like the day before and today, the workload will not be overwhelming.. it is only overwhelming because the boss keeps interrupting and badgering us over trivial nonsense.. and the "discussion" over things to be done is usually a 2-hour monologue by her about everything we are about to do... she just repeats it over and over about 3 times... oh well.. all good things must come to an end.. today, is the 2nd and final day of their planning seminar... the management will be back tomorrow... with that, i'm going to go get my light breakfast of a sandwich
Rhonda SG Oh dear! You poor thing!! Drink liang teh and suck lozenges! I'm in a kind of frenzied panic right now. I didn't read my PR application documents properly and just now realised that I have up till 8 Feb to scan all my documents and submit it to the immigration authorities online!! I can have everything ready by then except for my CID Police Clearance!!! Die!!!
ShrodingersCat SG if you have a camera with a good resolution, don't even need to scan, can just take photo. that will take u less time
ShrodingersCat SG I think when I see the word Clearance with a capital C and followed by !!!! I dunno why I automatically think of a SALE.. .and at first I was thinking wow... CID Police Sale.. sell what.. guns ah.. uniforms for fetishes?.... woo..
the Bear SG Dubbya is an asshat.. and he's surrounded himself with similar asshats.. => Study: Bush, aides made 935 false statements in run-up to war
ShrodingersCat SG Err you know.. cos they always advertise sales.. as CLEARANCE!!!! SALE!!! whereas.. as u know.. official clearance.. usually.... not followed by.. exciting exclamation marks ma. usually it would be quite serious. like.... : clearance. not.. Clearance! ok. i think i am digging a deeper pit. nevermind.
Rhonda SG Think I'll just submit the entire application by mail. That means more than two weeks. Bro is very busy at work and I hardly get to talk to him at all. Mom and dad are working too. Basically, I have a family in Singapore, but no one is free to run errands for me. Not unless they have to take annual leave to get the day off to do it. Ah well... They processed my application much faster than I expected them to! I just read the entire thing and realised that my profession, and the fact that I've lodged my application online, must have given me priority! I'm so used to the Aussies doing everything slowly, dragging their feet, that their speed in this issue, still astounds me!
Rhonda SG Actually, I have!! I used to get all fired up at how slow and inefficient they are over here. Now, I'm slow and inefficient myself!! No wonder when I returned to Singapore last trip, I felt everything was whizzing past me in Orchard Road and I couldn't breathe and almost had a mini panic attack, being surrounded by a sea of people walking in all directions, drowning me in their hurried frenzy!
