TGIF

So glad it's Friday! One of my accounts has been finalised. Yay!! But I headed home straight after work instead of heading to my favourite club for drinks. I wanted to recuperate for the weekend. I want to claim back my lost beauty sleep. I am gonna try hitting the sack tonight before 1am after catching my favourite tv drama and get up early for a morning jog on Saturday. I seemed more relaxed writing here than sending emails out to my clients.

Lunch was good but...

I had lunch today at one of my favourite cafes. Ordered a plate of mee goreng and requested for extra spicy because I love spicy food. I'm a food lover and I enjoys good food. But today, the noodles tasted 'bland'. The dish was good but I couldn't seem to enjoy it. Have I worked too hard or am I just being inefficient? I'm always racing against time. I need time off. I wish. Not possible. Got to wait till May or June before I can take a breather.

I want to get out of Singapore after my peak period is over. London should be good or the States, so that I can lay my hands on Coach bags and my favourite Prescriptives which has discontinued in Singapore. Yet, at the time I wish to use the money I save to get myself a nice pressie for my birthday in August. I need a good rest on Friday. No more clubbing this weekend for me. If I turned my mobile off, the chances of me getting out of the house for drinks will be lower. Sounds bad, ya? =)

Lost

Should I stay or should I go? My mind is in a total state of confusion. For one moment, I felt so cornered. Yet, I couldn't show any signs of fear but to remain composed. What kind of life am I pursuing? What's best for me may not be best for me.

Spoilt brats

Just a while back, I attended a birthday party of a friend of mine, held at a club. No, he didn't book a club but he got a table. Cut the story short. Just because the club attendent didn't allow all his friends to attend the club for free but she allowed free entry for other patrons just not my friend's, it got him so pissed off. I construed how he felt then, I wld too especially so if I got a table and I freaking bought an expensive bottle of champagne and beer and yada yada yada. And maybe he had a drop too much, he started throwing a glass or two on the floor. It is so uncalled for. It was his birthday, so no one stopped him. I was somewhat disapproving of his action. I was horrified. He could just make a complaint to the manager of the club. The club attendent did have an attitude problem, I must say. Just so he is from a well to do family gave him the right to behave in such a barbaric manner? He is an eligible chap with a great career and good looks but this isn't the right way to live your life, is it?

Think I am too stressed up over nothing

'Take it easy. Don't think or talk about work once you leave the office.' I tried to heed the advice but I failed. Not trying hard enough I suppose. It is just a job but it seems to be taking a toll on my health. Most probably due to lack of sleep. Sometimes, the stress level can be so high that it can be quite nerve-racking. Yes, drinking does not solve the problem. Pyschologically, I feel that it does. Again, I went clubbing on a Friday night after work. This time round, I went to St James Power Station. A Power Station converted into a few clubs. Interesting place but I really detest queuing for more than 30 mins to enter the club. It is freaking packed with people all the time. It was my second time there & I guess I won't go there again. I prefer Velvet Underground. It is not too noisy, a great place for chilling out. However, I am currently finding alternatives to ways of releasing stress elements in my body. Just a couple of days ago, I went to the gym for a 30-min jog during lunchtime. I felt great then. It clears my head and heightens my mood whenever I exercise. So, am gonna head to the gym if time allows during lunch next time. Clubbing is bad for the mind, soul and body. No health benefits and depletes my financial funds.

Good news is, I've recently signed up for a gym membership at some health club. Looking forward to the workout classes especially spinning class. Less drinking sessions and more workout sessions! And, not forgetting to spend more quality time with my lovely family and people I care about. I'll remind myself constantly to have a healthy lifestyle. Wish me luck!

Withdrawal Symptoms

Since the beginning of the year, I've been clubbing almost every weekend. Every Friday, at least. Does that make me a hardcore clubber? Or a chiongster in Singapore term. The longer the amount of time I spend in the office, the lesser the amount of time I spent on sleeping, all the more I need to go to the club for some drinks. Somehow I find that I seem to hold my liqour better than before. Every week is a challenge for me & I always look forward to Friday 'cause it is clubbing time for me!! I admit that I kinda stressed up by work and I am seeking solace in clubbing. Drinking helps too. I do not drink on weekdays, but I'd need a drink badly on weekends. I love long island tea and my recent fave, apricot brandy. Not only am I a workaholic and an alcoholic too! These days a big fraction of my credit card bills goes to the accounts of the clubs. Though I do not belong to the class of major spenders on drinks, at least 10% of my wage goes to them. I feel all uneasy if I don't club on either Fridays or Saturdays. It feels like some form of withdrawal symptom for me. I feel unhappy if I stay at home. It's like I'm on drugs literally. I'm beginning to understand how smokers feel when they try to quit smoking. Sigh... I do not club alone. I don't enjoy being picked up either, because I just wanna chill out with my friends. Being picked up by strangers only tells me that maybe, maybe I still have this last bit of charm left in me. It could be due to the dim light setting in the club too that these guys thought that I am attractive or simply mere desperation of them.

The time now is 4.03am.

The time now is 4.03am, Singapore Time. I just done with my shower. Left my office ard 3ish am. Tired. Very tired. Applied some eye gel on my awfully dark eye rings. Suddenly, I've this feeling that maybe, maybe 1000 years ago, pandas might be my potential ancestors back then. I starting to resemble more and more like a panda literally.

Thank goodness it is Friday again! I wonder if I can leave my office early tommorrow. I need more than 8 hrs of sleep to recharge myself. However, another part of me, the devil one in me wanted to go chill out at some wine bar.

This aside, today I want to write abt my client. The staff at my client's premises were so nice to me. Guess I was the youngest in their office and it was an all girls working environment except for their male boss. Back to the main topic, I have never met such a nice lady while on engagement. The story goes like this... I wanted to send my shoes for repair but I can't find the time to do it. I brought my shoes to my client's place and left them in the meeting room reserved for me to do my work. One of the client's staff, K saw that i have yet to get them done and so offered to send my shoes to the cobbler if she sees one on her way back. I was so moved by her super duper kind gesture. I felt bad but I still accepted her offer. hehe... No client has ever been so so nice to me. She treats me like her own family. I felt so blessed. I guess I will miss this client of mine. Ok, I have to end this abruptly, I can't type anymore...
