2003 is coming to an end - juz like that. This yr had been a rather normal yr for me. I completed my (sucky) NS on Feb this yr. I will forever rem the date, a date i was waiting so desperately to come. 22/02/03. Let me do a recap of yr 2003 for me.

Jan 2003
-I shld be clearing my leave and also slacking @ home and also going for interviews of which none is successful.

Feb 2003
-Still on leave n slacking @ home. Did my clearance as well as dental FFI. ORD on the 22nd. ORD LOH HWHHAHAAA

March 2003
-Managed to get my 1st job @ a printing firm which pays not too badly but the working hours is slavery to most people. The working time is frm 7.30am to 7.30pm 12 hrs wif only half an hour's lunch break. Half an hour !!!! Anyway, my performance is not very good there. Well nevertheless, i worked until late May when i quitted.

April 2003
-Yay my birthday on the 30th. Got 2 gundam models frm cuteball. Still working @ printing firm wif records of MCs n urgent leaaves.

May 2003
-Decided to perform better in work but something my manager said to me made me wanna quit. Well so be it. I was quite loaded then, money was not much of an issue then. I quitted this sucky job.

June 2003
-Slacking at home, did go for some interviews...and actually managed to get one designer post but the company is so new, i had to work frm home, no pay cos no projects coming in YET. In the end, after discussion wif my mum, I decided to give it a miss.

July 2003
-Still bumming @ home wif relentless blasts of nagging frm my mum.

Aug 2003
-Finally found work again at Singtel as a customer service officer. Training wise was oke, anyway we had 2 weeks of training and during this period i made some friends ! Even now, we r still in contact. Shit, i still have my stuff @ my ex colleague's place. Work wise was tolerable, unless u encounter nasty n demanding customers on the phone. Some r really...one of a kind. They know nothing, yet want this want that...and think they r the ones paying the most expensive plans then. This made me to realise local peasants r so fcuking cheapskate. They only see the price and not the contents of the packages in the so called 256k or 512k "broadband" package. They nv bother abt the clauses n e surcharges this n that and when we explained nicely to them why they were being charged at that bill...they will "##%#))&$&

This also show me Singnet plans are really designed to rip as much ca$h frm stupid peasants. Im wondering why would any decent ISP come wif broadband plans on a limited useage/time/vol basis. The monthly sub is dirtcheap ( which the peasants only find it visible to their "paranomic" field of vision) but if they require tech assistance, they have to make a 1900 xxx xxxx call @ 30 cents per min ! And normally tech calls can drag up to half an hour or more. The unlimited "broadband" charges r insane. Wif that kinda price ($78+++ for the remaining 12 months of a 18 month contract then) i rather go get Maxonline surfing at up to 3000kbps whereelse Singnet is offering 512kbps of "dedicated" access. Pls note that this "dedicated access" is not even capable of streaming a quicktime movie at medium resolution.

One of my very good excolleague was fired becos he was over qualified. YEah thats the freaking reason. OVERQUALIFIED. Another decided to quit which really lower my morale. I quitted soon after them

Sep 2003
-zhorbohlan @ home, oh not so, im listening to chants of " go find work go find work" frm my mum. Went into multilevel marketting wif my ex class/coursemates. Oke, dun think it suit me that well..shall not tok abt it.

Oct 2003
- found temp work @ British Council !!!!!!!! Its a very nice place to work. Nice office, nice people...nice working hours. Mon to Fri frm 9-5. Shiok hor ? hehehe..I missed that place. Working period is frm 13th of Oct to 30th of Nov

Dec 2003
