Bite me!!!

Yea... by some miracle today, I managed to clear all my work before 6pm. Even had time to declutter my mailbox and delete all those mails which have nothing to do with my job or whatsoever. And of course, I ran home as quick as I could. I mainly had time to do all this because I had no training today. A day free from the lecturing and nagging of the Wicked Witch of the West.

Tomorrow... tomorrow is a different story. Tomorrow we have a date with the Wicked Witch again. And maybe she'll smack us with her broomstick if we don't do as she says.

My immediate superior and my dept head were on leave today. I suppose that also explains why I didn't have too much to do. Also cos I dunno what to do with some of the stuff, so I have to wait for my immediate superior, lets call her JanJan, to come back tomorrow before I can do anything.

Thank you to Kat and Andrea for offering me jobs. Hehe! I'll just wait for Infineon to call me. I've also been offered a job with Panasonic (the one who makes electronic components) in KL by a supplier just cos I told him I have not decided to follow Flextronics to PTP, Johor. As if I'm gonna take the job. My colleagues yell at Panasonic staff over the phone everyday cos they can't keep up with our demands and datelines. I do not want to work for a company who can't meet datelines and have to deal with people pressing on me to send them stuff. I have enough stress getting suppliers to deliver on time.

I'm beginning to think that people in the office seriously think I'm a truly fluffy airhead. We had another new buyer this week and she happens to be a schoolmate of mine. True, she speaks forcefully and she has good English vocab and she is supposed to be studying law and stopped for awhile. All my senior colleagues are hoping that she will be the catch they're hoping for. The power worker and speaker they can groom to handle all work and also teleconferences and so forth. Funny... they've never mentioned me in such light. Hehe! I suppose they don't find me serious enough or forceful enough or power enough ;) What do you think? Just cos I clown around at work means I'm some twit :P I do that cos I need an outlet to release tension. I'll go mad if I'm straight-faced all day. But then again, sometimes it pays to seem like a twit. Then they don't dump the complicated work on you. Hehe! But it's not like I don't perform. I do my share, ok! :P

I'm seriously caught between wanting to be the great employee and not wanting to have all sorts of responsibility thrown at me. Which path should I choose? Maybe I'll just stick to being the so-so employee so that I can go home by 7pm everyday. That way when I have kids, they won't be hyper and undisciplined and my family may not become dysfunctional. Good idea?

Btw, so that everyone knows, I'm getting real fat. I had to go pants shopping last weekend cos I can't wear most of my jeans now. I am horrified with my body. For all my 22 years of life, I have never seen it grow like that. To my body: You'd better have some boobs in store for me if you insist on expanding like this. Nothing beats being flat and fat at the same time.

My hips are growing and growing. I can finally use the word bootylicious on myself. Haha! Just need to do something about my bloated tummy and I'm set. Then I'll have hips and hopefully tits to go soon enough :P I'm talking about my body as if I could slap on a piece of flesh here and there and make it stick. Hehe!

It was culture shock to go pants shopping. Most of my pants I have worn since Form3 and I probably only buy a pair every year. Some years I even skip. So far I've bought 2 pairs of linen pants (black with stripes from Soda and baby blue from Giordano - pics later), for work, and a nice white cotton skirt. I make it a point to look fashionable at work. Need to keep up my fluffy, airy image.

I think I've touched the 50kg mark. It just gets scarier. Diet time!!!!
