Strategy so difficult

i got tis bank for strategy. i need to do pest and porters' 5 forces. OMG so diffcult. i've learnt nothing. how cum so difficult. why can't i just do something that is easy - like my friend's one (Zara). I wanna do Mango then. but then again, my original plan was to do Genting or Banyan. piangs. Do bank. sians sias.

While doing porter's 5 (customer bargaining, supplier's bargaining, internal rivalry, substitutes and threat of new entrants), i have no idea what is suppliers for banks. i'm not too sure about internal rivalry (got 5 local banks and 106 foreign banks in singapore - that bank of mine falls unders foreign banks - but then again local banks are broken up into many many different sections and there are 6 banks in the qualifying full banks sector - so that bank of mine falls under this sector? or does it fall under the foreign banks as a whole? hmm??). what are substitutes to depositing? (investment), what are customers? (depositors? or lenders? or investors? who?), new entrants? (got such threat from the other 102 banks? - how to find info?) oh my goodness... so fed up. grr... i so wanna fall asleep. it's 4am now. i wanna go sleep now.

and one last msg to all ya guys -- dun do banks for ur biz analysis.. think u just qi si zi ji for no good reason. fed up...... ARGH. cannot focus le la. i'm gg to bed. tmr will be a better day.. or should i say today will be a better day. let's hope i got good post to post up soon. actually got good post la. i'll post it up tmr or when i'm freer... hee.

hmm... contradiction

Here's something I got from my democracy presentation (remember the one which i spent about 4 to 5 nights trying to understand??).


Looks as human rights;
Good bills are protecting human rights;
Welfare organizations:
Good electoral laws ensure accountability; coherence is important


Strong points:
Good voice projection; good eye contact and hand movement; natural and engaging (but see the downside to this below)


The be improved on:
In terms of fluency, try to finish your sentences; If necessary, make your sentences shorter and easier; avoid expressions like ‘you get what I mean’, etc, which help to connect but do not relate to the argument / analysis;
Singlish-isms – whether okay or not depends on the audience; on the one hand, it allows you to connect in a better way with the audience; on the other hand, and depending on the occasion and audience, it may not be the right thing to do;
Look more interested in the Q&A (i.e. look up)

===================================================================

My aim was to make a boring till can cry blood type topic interesting. but then again, i get this shit from my shit prof about my shit presentation. I SEE NOW. he wants a boring till can cry tears presentation. anyway. i honestly dun like this prof's teaching style. he's a nice person but then a lousy teacher.

anyway, what sort of constructive feedback is this? ok admit. Singlish may be wrong. but then again... er... think the audience is pretty okay what... whatever la. grr... dun like this sort of not here nor there type of commnt. u realised he also notices if you have eye contact or not. so please please when presenting have eye contact with the audience (at least with the prof). bah... lousy tiring fed up irritated waste tme. i am going to go see a doctor today. stupid. before, during and after the presentation i've been having a bad tummy ache, i've not been sleeping well, and i got constant headache..

fed up.

what i've been doing lately

"I can do it". this is the phrase that keeps me going.

I've got quite a few things to do:

• 1 revised democracy individual report
• 1 democracy report to edit
• 1 democracy powerpoint
• 1 environmental science powerpoint
• 1 jap quiz

5 things (at least that's about all i can remember). pretty little la. easy peasy. can relax now... YEAH!!!! at least for now......

last few nights i've been sleeping at 4am. now i can sleep at 2am. YES! what a big change. honestly... =) now just waiting for some stuff to be settled with Gary because it needs to be done pretty quickly (actually settling the powerpoint slides)

after that i can fall asleep soundly after doing some yoga. YES i do yoga. it's about the only exercise i can do now (given my time). but then it doesn't matter. at least i'm getting some exercise. =)

watching a new show now. called "jia you jin shun" - korean show. pretty cute (although i practically cried my way through the first half cuz the female lead has a very sad start in the story). but half way through the show, the interaction between the male and female lead is very interesting. but then apart from the funny scenes between the male and female lead, the other scenes are just sad and crying type. so i'm really looking forward to watching how things happen between the two. =) and i also kinda like the interaction between the female lead and her brother-in-law. i only started being addicted to the show at around the 20th episode. actually it's because i want to know what will happen between the male and female lead (my gossipy alter ego creeping out). it's a long story la. go watch it.

Well this gives me something to do during my holidays. i've got another few more parts to watch. each part has 10 discs, and each disc has 4 episodes. there are 3 parts altogether. haven't opened up all the other parts so i'm not sure if there are 10 discs in all.

well. just go watch it so that i got some people to bitch with (just like hana kimi - my jap pals are all watching the show so it's pretty nice to talk to them about it). hee.............

the reason why i'm so addicted to drama it's because Gary's so busy. every week Gary has tons and tons of work to do. so he doesn't really have the time for me. so i hang out with my friends and watch dramas!!!!!!!! hee.... yea! that's what you should do when your boyfriend is so busy with stuff...... =P and well.. Gary's fine with it anyway. so i can carry on with my daily activity (watching stacks and stacks of drama while settling work in front of the TV). but of cos, i'll listen to him with regards to loads of stuff (e.g. when i should be sleeping, wat i should be eating, and what i should be spending my allowance on). keke.... well.. occasionally should listen to my "elder's" advice..

hey hey hey. me got jap name...

hey guys, after 11 weeks of jap class i've got a jap name. OH SO COOL.... it's directly translated from my english and chinese name. But my english one sounds weird.. the chinese one is weird too.

English (from candice): Kyandisu
Chinese (from Hui Ting): Keitei

lol... i like the spelling of Keitei.. sounds jap (i mean obviously la. cuz it's jap class.. what am i talking about). I wanna be known as Keitei......... keke... nice name horz.... ok la. i'm so zi lian her... But still. exciting wat. after 23 years, i finally got a name of a different language. Please dun call me kyandisu.. it sounds really funny. Keitei sounds so much nicer. don't you think??????

ah....... relieved

finally i've finished my democracy final project - both presentation slides and report. BEST. I finished it at 4am. yawn i'm so so sleepy. and then i woke up at 1am (that's almost 9 hours of sleep). good right? yawn. so relieved now that i've gotten that monster project out of the way.

spent so much time doing that stupid project that i've no time to do others. so now i'm taking 15 min out to vent here. hee.. got strategy final project (MAS website is so good for researching on banks), environmental science project (focus on overfishing). worked so hard last night, i'm nursing a mild flu now. i want to crawl under the duvet and sleep the day away.

hey hey.. i'm watching this show called jia you jin shun... pretty nice. but then again it's a draggy korean show... the first few episodes are pretty interesting but the middle is really really draggy........ so wanna give up watching. should i should i? haha. but that will give me something to do during the holidays.

oh ya. then today (a sunny afternoon) i saw this family enjoying themselves in the pool. they walking around in their swimsuits. so hilarious. so not shy one... hahahahaha... ok i'm not going to laugh at people half naked. heehee.... giggle... lol. lol....... especially since they walking around in swimsuits and then u see the butts shake shake shake shake... i must stop laughing at people.....

Lookie what my retarded democracy prof wrote about my report

Hi all, received some stuff about my democracy (the subject i totally abhor now because of the retarded prof) individual report. here's what he said i could improve on and following that is what i think he should have changed.

Scope for improvement: The introduction needs to be clearer with regard to the sections that will follow, and hint at the conclusion (so i have to give an overview - when i've already given an abstract - and anyway, biz sch taught me how to write in a simple way, not the complicated social science way). The conclusion should (very) briefly recap the argument (which, in turn, should answer the initial question), which would also mean to briefly revisit the argument why it is relatively easy to attain democracy (i did do this. he just dun understand my freaking writing. i wrote in typical business/ accountancy student way. i used 2700 words to fucking explain my points, still he wants some more explanation. he's a fucking teacher) (okay, the leading party can enforce it – but can it enforce socio-economic development or the size and political orientation of the middle classes?) - whatever this meant;

Main part: try to link the various sub-parts closer together instead of keeping them as isolated analytical blocks (basically write in a long winded fecking way that he'll understand and i don't - so basically reconnect everything! What the fuck! i've got 2 reports and 2 presentations, not forgetting 4 other modules to study for. I'm not doing his own fecking module only okay!) (one way of doing this would be to get rid of the subheadings, but even by keeping them, you can use connecting words to link up the various parts); e.g. on page 4 (large middle class), you could link this up to the previous point: However, according to Huntington, it is not just economic development that is generally tied closely to democratization, but economic development also leads to a stronger middle class that would, often, push for democracy.

Thailand Case Study: Is this part of Part B, or does it form Part C? The most important point here is that quite a few of your facts in the Thailand part are inaccurate and not substantiated by reference to the literature. (he gave me the link to the thailand website which reported till 1973. my reference was until 2007 and THEN they did mention that the monarchy had power - anyway, he's a fucking teacher who can't teach.)

=================================================

ok. with that out of the way. i wanna make my annoucement. i'm not gg to appear for class after week 12. for what.. every time i fall asleep during is class. i've learnt more from the readings than from him. he demanded 10,000 things from us - participation, readings, group work, impromptu presentations and half the time he's not even listening. then he'll keep asking and asking. i'm beginning to not believe in the existence of the fecking democracy. because i did not learn a shit about it since this course started. i've ren for 12 weeks. my patience and good will towards this fucking teacher is thinning big time. today i wanted to just scream at him and tell him to just FUCK OFF! apologies for the profanities used so liberally in this blog but in all honesty, i can't express my frustrations more "appropriately". saying i'm angry is a GROSS UNDERSTATEMENT. saying i'm upset is ALSO A GROSS UNDERSTATEMENT. saying i'm frustrated is TOO LIGHT a word to used. i hate these teachers. they are so FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!! how cum my school is employing all the F-ed up teachers??? this teacher is one, the freaking strategy teacher is also like that. the gd profs are my Advanced financial accounting, Advanced management accounting, Advanced audit profs, ALL MY LAW PROFS, my finishing touch instructor (she saved my life big time - taught me how to survive interviews and how to dress and what to say. i got her to thank for assisting me in getting my job), AND MY BASIC JAP PROF. she's just so mega cute. i'm so in love with her... hate the rest - they all suck big time! full of knowledge no doubt, but can't teach, destroyed my interests and shredded my hopes for a decent grade and i learnt nothing in the fucking process. Wasted my mornings and afternoons listening to all these idiots speak. this Democracy prof is one of the BIGGEST IDIOTS i've met. hate him, hate the school. can't wait to get out. the thing i'll probably miss is talking to all my fav profs and of cos the ability to go home early (but go home and study la).

i can't wait to get out!! GET ME OUT OF THIS HELL HOLE!

rubbishy mail i received today

hi all,

received this email today (see pic) and i was so shocked!!!

read the mail! i got a quiz tmr and i am only notified today @ 1.30pm. I mean show some respect please. OMG. so pissed off. Like i am only taking this module. Plase i got other stuff to worry about okay! this is not the only thing hor. angry ah! but then again, this is life lo. sucks. Was wondering what's up with these people. too much time, so no where to spend. must be... that's why come u with some funky stuff to torture us.

then again. i dun care la. can't wait to get out of sch so that i can finally sleep before 1am. last few nights been sleeping @ 2 or 3 am leh. starting to take a toll on my concentration in class.

JIA YOU JIA YOU! 4 more weeks to the end of my schooling life. No more facing bitchy classmates and taking mounds of stuff back home to do. No more sleeping at 3 or 4 am every day and getting only 2 hours of rest.

But it's 3 more months to facing office politics (usually all offices would have), toiling 10 to 12 hours a day, earning small sums of money to ensure that there is a roof over my head and food in my stomach, wondering about my future (where am i going to go from here at 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, till i die), facing a whole load of questions being bombarded ("so when are u getting married?", "when's your first kid?"), feeling unsure about myself, my life, my relationship, my family and my friends. hoping to go back to study, but dread the long and tedious nights.

Life's so fun, it makes me wanna cry!

Saw Symphonians Today

Hey all,

For now, i dun have the pics. So cannot show anything yet. but i went for a concert today. it's symphonia's annual concert. Eh i was once a symphonian okay. just tat i nv found time to go back and anyway, i dun wanna be under that conductor. he's scary.

caught up with my flute people (yes i play the flute. many pple will laugh i know.. but i really play the flute). really fun. saw all the symphonians again. like back in band. really missed the time when we're together having fun making music. I like the making music part not the socialising part. Not that i dun like to socialise just that sometimes i prefer to just go home after band. but then like v bad like that. but then again. i felt kinda out of place sometimes cuz they all different topics. keke. ah well we're all still friends. just i prefer to keep quiet sometimes.. occasionally putting in some bitchy comments here and there.

really missed my time there. if it's nt for my studies and failure to manage time properly i would have stayed on. but anyway, half the time i'm getting "suan-ed" for poor skills. i really de-motivated to go back. but anyway, still missed the times when we all slogged hard (during camp, during rehearsals) for a good performance. had fun had tempers had grumbles had bitching. was fun la. that was one of my best times in uni. really missed them and really wanted to go back. but wanna think some more before gg la. even then might not wanna go back with my (as Serah always said) out of tune playing and spoil their winning streak. they are doing very well know.

Symphonia... Well done on ur annual concert... You've done all symphonians, past and present proud... carry on working hard. you'll do fine... =) congratulations on a good performance...

Messed Up School System

Hi guys, I'm in school on a Saturday after finishing my Democracy meeting. Don't get my wrong. Me Accountancy major not Political Science major, I'm taking Democracy for elective (because I cannot find other good and slack elective).

Dear Gary booked a study room for me to study after the meeting today. But guess what, near the room there is this event going on and the tables in that study room was missing. No prices for guessing where it went to. Oh my goodness. It's always like that. It's so messed up. I was wondering, don't they have tables in those event rooms where they can use instead of using tables from the students' study rooms? So Gary has wasted 4 hrs of his booking quota for this. So champion........

Any way, the school administration is always like that. Take first put back later. But not so for our money. Funny thing is they take thousands and thousands from us a year, and then we get, messed up school network (everyone knows this), administrators who usually are unable to answer our questions (especially with regards to graduation questions), administrators who "pao toh" us for not turning up at designated events to deans (for them to deal with us), and (this is a classic) profs who told us we are products of the system.

The last point is pretty interesting. The long and short of it is, we pay to be products. Education is one WEIRD industry. The products of the education system are students. The paying customers of the products are also students. Don't make sense? Our school fees pay for our tuition fees, we pay miscellaneous fees for a load of stuff (to make us better "products") essentially we are more or less a "source of revenue" for the school, but we are treated not as "paying customers" but "products" that needs to be changed for the better of society. I can't believe i'm paying for this. So heartache. Thousands of dollars spend and we get "bullied" but administrators, and scolded by teachers and profs, pressured when we're not doing well (the recent debate on the dropping of low scoring subjects). And we spend all these money. for these. So interesting.

We benefit from the knowledge learnt. But we also get a lot of shit along the way. OH MAN. Life is just funny that way..........

long day. so relieved it's over

ok that's it. i've sealed my fate on the 9/3/07 at 3.30pm (i don't know the exact time la, think i clock watcher meh). I've signed a contract that is so complicated i almost fainted. it is 5 pages long. 5 whole pages long. I'm now bound by the clauses of the contract so a lot of things i cannot say here. Not even my pay structure or i'll be in breach of the contract.

Some how i got this mixed feeling after the conclusion of the contract. kinda "shit-but-relieved" sort of feeling. No it's not the toilet kinda of feeling. But those that "oh-man-i'm-going-to-live-such-a-life-from-now-on-but-glad-i-found-a-job-already" sort of feeling. 20 words long. siaoz. know i know why i never tried expressing it in that way. so why did i write it here.. so contradicting. I must be crazy.

then i got this crazy presentation this morning. ALMOST fell asleep in that class. that prof. wowee.. so wanna slap his face. *piak* noone can win. not even if you got some information on hand. so dunno la. watever. so long as i pass this course, i dun mind attending it every friday morning while attempting to keep my eyes open, ears perked up and hands and fingers away from msn-ing (not that I mind the last activity - msn-ing during the friday morning lesson is fun, we can bitch for 3 whole hours about the lesson).

Jap class is also driving me nut. Half the time the teacher was going ~desu ka, ~ desho, ~ masu ka, ~ne, etc......... I really don't know what she is asking for MOST OF THE TIME. maybe it's tim for me to go look at my notes instead of letting them rot on my table and pick them u every tuesday and thursday doing some "last-minute-hug-Buddha's-leg" revision, and then being totally lost in class.

today spent large part of the lesson time in both classes, talking about xiu yi. So funny. he and his lousy english - gya gay, give me "fen kai", boy and girl talking no touching! these are only in EP 11. Watch out for more funny english in EP 12. hee. i've finished watching the show le by the way. *smilez* oh ya. another interesting thing to look out for is the mei tian lao shi.

ok. i've decided (but i don't know if i can keep to this decision) to cut down on carbo intake. Dinner on every alternate days shall be canned soup (cream of mushroom; cream of chicken mushroom). on other days, rice shall only be small portion. At the same time, i shall partner this with yoga. on yoga nights, think dinner no need to eat le, cuz rushing from lessons to yoga class at night. but than before yoga eat light dinner la. after yoga, eat sandwich. yeah. i'm determined to lose some weight. this is because i'm getting fat! look at my plump cheeks, big waist and butt! help me lose weight my friends!!!

oh i got my job!

hi all, i've gotten a job as a recruitment consultant. finally, after so many rounds. I just hope my interviewers are nicer than they were in my interview. Hopefully this all work out. Anyway, I was hoping to just get my first job. This is a pretty fun job la. Sales + a little HR. Learn a little of what is required in this field. Very unfortunate, I do not have the experience. So once again I am starting from the bottom of the table. And got to work my way up. I just have to try harder to work my way up the scale.

At last........................ I can finally take a break and concentrate on my studies. I really thank that company for giving me this chance to fight with them. I just hope that I can perform under that pressure. OMG! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really hope to be able to move up to manager. let's start the fight on the 11th of June.............

Some Interviwers are just SOOOOO irritating

hey all, went for my 3rd and probably last interview today for the position of recruitment consultant. If the 2nd interview was bad, this was worst...

this guy is the CEO of the company. at first, i expect a difficult interviewer with a lot of doubts and suspicions about this ditzy accounting graduate applying for a "sales" job. think they are really wondering if i am suitable for this job. Well i did try to explain to them that i really needed the job.

then in the middle of the interview he said, i dun look like my picture. so i told him that i took it when i got straight hair and now i got a permed one. am i supposed to look the same? OMG. and then he let me talk before interrupting me about my nails. he said i got too long nails. OMG it's normal length for a girl who love her nails... then he said this is not an artist job so no need long nails. oh please. so stereotypical. so sales person must wear suit, sport dyed hair and have short nails??? it doesn't make any sense. it's like judging a person based on their ability to dress. like secondary school. if you got long, dyed hair you are beyond hope. or long nails. OMG. i've never met someone so old fashioned!!!!!!! OH GOSH.... darn question mark.

anyway. whatever it is, he said he doesn't want people coming in with a play play attitude. well. if your freaking livelihood depended on it, would you be play-playing? ridiculous. he said i will meet good, bad and ugly people. He sounded so like my AMA prof. But 3 to 4 times more intimidating. at least i can still have dinner with my AMA prof. It would probably kill me if i were to meet this CEO again. then he said he's good at recognizing a good person. ah well. he started this company, he'd better be. I just wonder what he wants.... anyway, i think i failed this interview totally cuz i really cannot handle him. half the time i am trying to figure out what he is saying. and the other half trying to prevent him from shooting my answers down. very tough interview. so now i'm honestly without a job. maybe i shld look for a job in april or may after graduation bah. freaking sian one leh... everything also cannot get (actually i haven't looked for too many). aiya. i start biz ba... might as well........ OMG. who wants me to do their nails. i'm pretty good at it. so think i shld just go get certification for it... pissed off............

never felt so insulted before. i'll be so surprised if i were to get this job. i wonder if all interviewers are that difficult to handle. i guess, probably bah.... but if i were to fail this interview, then i got one conclusion, this is really not the job for me, i probably will feel miserable in it. maybe it's really not my thing lo. because if you think back, that company has loads of people,but why can't i be one of them? ah well... it doesn't matter ba...

one thing i can do very well... housewife.. eh Gary! I wanna be housewife! okay?

my crazy jc classmates Part 1

for everyone who is wondering who is the funky classmates i love so much.... here they are. all of them......

we're a funky bunch of people. we have annual CNY gathering mainly a good time to eat, chat and spend our ang bao $$$ gambling. and also many other gatherings over the years, depending on when we wanna gather and whether we wanna plan one or not.

this pic is actually taken in december over the xmas hols. we met up in city hall (supposed to go marina bay for steamboat but then that Peiru, Ser yin and Yvonne dun wanna go) and ate in New York New York. Please please think twice about going there.

Firstly, the service is atrocious. The person taking our order rushed us and was rude when answering our questions. Secondly, the food is atrocious. It's too big a portion, too tasteless and smelt funny. Personally, I dun like it there....

Then we went to this coffee place opposite marina sq. pretty cool. we gathered around 4 tables, in one HUGE circle and started talking about a load of rubbish, which i cannot remember. that's when we decided on the CNY steamboat where they stormed my house with a vengence.

after about 6 years ( i can't believe i know these people for 6 years), we're still gg strong. which is good. i love my crazy JC people (they're typically nuts with loads of crazy ideas and nonsense) but that's what i like. keeps my insanity tank full. keke. u guys rock NYJC 01S4C. I will try to get Mark Lim/ Lucy Boo to see our blog (i still have their mobile nos) lol....................

in class now

hey all, i'm in class now. this class called Democracy. I'm so so tired. so sleepy. know why? this is cuz of not enough sleep. i've actually slept a lot but it's never enough. i think it is because half the time i'm not really sleeping but going thru the work in my mind. dunno how.

it's a very long day. i had an interview this morning and it is soooooooo tough. the interviewer keep questioning my qualifications. let me explain to you why.

i am going for an Recruitment Consultant job. Do I hear a few "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"s? I bet you do. For those who are still clueless, let me tell you why.

firstly, i'm an accountancy/ law (under)graduate. I'm not really graduated, but i'm nearing graduation. And I wanted this to be my first job. So that I can build experience. But to this interviewer, i'm not gd enough because to her, i'm just not what she is looking for (probably - she hasn't given me any reply). because i'm not experienced, neither do i have the knowledge to "handle" the job.

secondly, i'm from a civil service family. so she thinks that regardless of what i say (that my parents support my choices) she probably still thinks it is not good cuz my parents might still make a big fuss about me being in a "sales" position. But honestly, if there is nothing wrong in a sales position, then i do not think some one (or anyone) should mind being in that position. this is a "sales" but this is selling a service - HR! I am not sure. she seems pretty apprehensive about my application. so not confident. if i dun get it, i am pretty sure i will have to relook at other job options. OH NO! i dun wanna go back to the other positions. i wanna b in HR.

I already said SMU screwed up my life. at first i was posted to BBM but then offered BAcc. I chose BAcc cuz that time BBM has only finance and marketing (which is not interesting to me). But after i accepted BAcc, BBM programme came up with Operations Management, and various funky new majors. Really regretted my agreement to BAcc.

I was telling Gary. Either way i am dead. If i want to go to the Accounting line, then I am not good enough because my grades are not good for these subjects. But if i were to go outside of the Accounting field, I have to work doubly hard to prove that I am not a typical accountancy student. I feel pretty upset now honestly. cuz either way i can't wind. think best is I move overseas and people might still want me, despite my lack of experience. Worrying enough. As a fresh graduate, i have to depend on my grades to move forward. But the problem is, it is not good enough to move forward. I'm kind of stuck in this limbo where I cannot move anywhere. Think Singapore is too results focused and so i am not sure if i want to work in Singapore seeing that they look beyond passion/ interest and learning potential. Instead they look at grades. This is extreme!!!!!!!! Sigh. Dunno how siaz.

Who wanna employ this average accountancy graduate who wants to move beyond the accountancy line and is strongly interested in the HR sector of an organisation? I dun mind earning slightly less than $2,300 monthly. best of luck to me for the rest of my job search.

Hi guys

Hi guys,

I have created this very cool looking blog. YEAH. so happy. One of the first things i wanna say is, Thank You Peiru for "song yong"-ing me to create this blog on blogger... it is so much more interesting...

Anyway. had a steamboat gathering today in my place. the whole place was turned (more or less) upside down by my dsyfunctional classmates from NYJC (we've got a blog by the way @ http://nyjc01s4c.blogspot.com catch all the funky actions there). Well they spent most of the time gambling and i spend most of my time with my "jie meis" chatting about "jie mei" stuff like.... going taiwan, school, work, clothes, bags, shoes, etc.... i kinda left the class to their own devices because i wouldn't think that they would need me since everything is happening by themselves. heehee... i'm a lazy host.. i know.............................

anyway, had fun trying to get photographed, talk and watching them play cards......... it's really as though we're back in JC... no HW to worry about, no projects to worry about... but when they are all gone........ oh my goodness.. i received this email from hell that required me to do extra work that is due on fecking monday........ MY GOODNESS... where got so suay........... anyway.... that's that.. and i'm more or less venting in here.

anyway. it's time for me to go do more work and less play........ see ya again next time...
