Angry ah.

Really. Sometimes, time spent in the toilet are the best. It's like alone-alone time. Just you, yourself, & the 4 walls. Had a sudden enlightenment during the time spent in there just now.

Did I ever mention, showers are great too. Would really like to get a properly design bathroom/shower next time I own a house/apartment.

Anyway, today, got over to Randell's for lunch/dinner/breakfast. There were Ruth, Tracy (of course), Jasmine, Victoria, Tina & family. Bunny was supposed to go too. But she got too engross with her badminton competition that I got annoyed & angered at. So, in the end told her that she can just continue watching her competition & I'm not going to go pick her up. It's not about the distance I'll need to travel to pick her up or send her off. Unlike what my cousin thought. Really. Such tangible things are insignificant to me. It's the attitude attached that I'm more concerned about.

Sigh... Shall head off to bed now. Still got to wake up early tomorrow.

All about work + side-notes

Thursday was a total nightmare at work. You ever get one of those days? Days where nothing just go your way? Well, happened to me on Thursday.

So, I mainly do dispatch now at the factory, with the holidays season around the corner. And with the massive orders customers are wanting, the products naturally run low. Thursday was one of those day. The production line was just about done with the 9 cartons I was lacking for the dispatch of the day. I was just about to pack them up, when the transport company, Rand, came to pick up the goods. Great. And I've yet to pallet wrap all the 6 pallets. Luckily, they were only 6. Anymore, I might have gone crazy.

But that's not all. To make matters worse, the admin girl, Tracy, and the production manager, Geoff, (I think that's his title), were at a conference. So, no one to help me speed things up. And then the big boss with the assistant boss were occupying approximately 7 pallets worth of space, playing around with their new toy. And they used my packed, unwrapped pallets as their workbench. Great. But that's not all. The wrapping machine, was just next to them. Meaning I can't exactly speed all I like with the forklift, just to speed things up a little. Just have to do it slow & easy with the driver looking on.

And if you think that's the end of it. No... Next, the wrapping machine just refused to start on me. Just when you think things couldn't be any worst. Took a good 10 minutes for it to get moving again. And I had to boldly & sneakily get Geoff to help me get it moving again.

Once it's moving, it was moving as it should be. Just had to do things manually with all the controls.

And the end of it - the machine had to run out of the plastic wrapper. Awesome. With no one to help too. Thankfully, that wasn't much of an issue since I'd always changed the plastic roll on my own. So, it was quick.

Sigh~ What could have been a 15 minutes job, took me a good 30 to 40 minutes I believer.

That's about it on Thursday. Friday was fun though.

Another dispatch & pick up to do. This time, everything was done nicely, waiting for the transport company to come pick up the goods. 24 pallets in all. Awesomeness. It will be fun.

When the truck came by, it was more fun than I thought. The container truck, just came from delivering frozen goods. So inside the container, it was all cold. To add it on, the floor was all icy. How fun. The driver couldn't get the pallet in place by himself, so I had to get up there & help him. It was fun, sliding over the floor, trying to push the pallet in place. Leg power were useless here. Had to use the arm. Grabbing on to the sides where there are holes, using them as a point to push the pallet forward with the other hand. All sliding along the floor or getting pushed by back the pallet at the same time. Hahahaha.

Next Monday & Tuesday are going to be crazy. Need to get ready for a 40 foot & a 20 foot container dispatch.

On a side note from work. Waiting anxiously & with great anticipation to getting back to Singapore. Thinking of all the things to do, people to meet.

The wackiness with Valerie, Audrey, Lulu, Siewhoon & YuTing. Crazy & varied fun with my cousins. Chillax with Jean & company. Meet ups with Susanna, Marie, Curina, Lionel, Martin, Xinyi, Shihui & gang so that I conveniently don't miss anyone out since this is one of the biggest group I meet up with. Getting together with Rachel. Bitching & some outdoor fun with Jerome, Keith, Shermin, Meixing & Jasmine. Of course catching up with my brother. Possibly gathering with primary school mates. Maybe just hanging out with Kristelle if she's around since I haven't seen her in ages, & with Amy too. Of course there's Joseph & Aikhong too. And Bunny. So many people. The list never end. Well, it does, but it's just a figurative speech pattern you know.

On another side note. I know this is going to sound crazy & narcissistic. But. I think I'm in love with my long hair (just after bunny & gaming & entertainment & gymnastics & sports in general). Hahaha. It's getting a bit hard for me to part with it now. More so since bunny loves it too. Hmmm... What am I going to do with it when I'm back in Singapore...

Oh. And anticipating the 4E2 gathering too of course.

Stagnant

Whoa. Why is blogger's new post's window in blue now?

Life's been kind of still & stagnant lately. Morning - reveille. Drive to work. Work. Evening - trip back home. Night - dinners, showers, doing whatever. Life was a tad more happening & bustling when I'm studying. I'm not complaining-complaining. Just, something feels amiss.

Anyway, today was a little different. Helped Clarisse with getting her boxes, then headed to university for some enrollment advice. I'm supposed to take 2 electives next year, but I'm going to do just one. Shall do a 4th year unit next year. Have it a little bit easier on myself during the fourth year.

Then work.

Been chasing this anime, "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood" lately. I think it's rather interesting. If one ignores the main storyline, the themes behind the show is interesting. Though it doesn't really explore it to the maximum, still, gives thoughts about moral ethics, rights & wrong, sacrifices & some others which I can't really think up of right now. So, been preoccupied with that lately. Had actually caused me heavy sleep loss, since I sleep at 0300 to 0400, then wake up at 0700 to 0730 for work.

No idea what's next. Maybe watch SNSD's Phuket trip. Borrowed the set from my cousin, but hadn't even touched it yet. What a disappointment.

And well, I'd never expect myself to say this, but, can't wait to get back to Singapore now. Need to get some change in momentum.

Then again, maybe this feeling of "dragginess" is due to my camera being untouched for a long long time. It's quite saddening to know that. Or maybe it's because bunny is busy with exams.

Well, there's the option of playing Wii as well. Quite a few games I've yet to complete.

Note to self: Future shower area - have a ledge nearby so that I can sit on it and ponder about the meaning of life with the water hitting me. I like that feeling. The feeling of water droplets hitting me, it's quite soothing & relaxing to a certain extend.

Things to do before leaving Perth for Singapore. Wash the car. Clean up the house. Clean up the exterior grounds. Pack my room again. Complete game - Crystal Bearers.

Sigh...

Stillness

Alrighty. Semester's over. But also comes the next troubling phase. The after-semester part of enrolling in units and registering for classes. Annoyance much. Not to forget that I'm having 2 electives next year, and I'm still wondering what to take up. Been thinking of architecture or something to do with arts. But not too sure how it'll turn out. Have got to find my course coordinator to have a chat about this. What are the options for electives and what's the work load like next year.

So, semester's over, what to do now? Cleaned up my room. Planning to finish up the upper levels by end this week. At least the bedrooms & staircase. Toilets, leaving it till the last day.

Been wanting to go surfing again now that semester's ended, but chances of me doing so, seems so slim. Sigh~ How I miss that feeling, to ride the waves... Sigh~

So, nothing special happening for a while now.

Well, besides the fact that I'm home alone, meaning lots of time to play games & rule the house & basically doing anything, everything I like & anytime too. Heheh.
