Poparazzi

Relating to my previous blog entry, I have no idea how I suddenly became so bare. It's like I stripped down all my facade, all those barriers and spoke from within. The quintessnce of Shan Yu. As I put it. I think I was too caught at the moment, then the words start stringing into sentences, and it went on and on and on and became paragraphs and paragraphs. Blah blah blah...

Anyway, I hate my work. This is supposedly my second job from this agent William Kung... after working in Meiban. The new working area is like some Chinatown slum, equipped with dusty fans, black walls and pungent chemical smells. It's like some retard-manufacturing factory. The people there are absolutely speechless. They hardly murmur a word to one another, let alone us.

Anyway, I went Temasek Poly open house today with YK and Hanif. The design school was kinda a disappointment. I really was expecting much more from an established school. I don't think I can fit into Visual Communications... I know how indecisive I am.. and having to choose a specific course (photography, aparrel design etc.) in Year 2 of poly isn't very appealing. I dunno, I just might have to stick with JC Life. Gotta PRRAYYYY about this! And hope He finds me a way.

Well, Hanif's gonna quit his job cause his Dad is buying him an N70. Gwarrsh, wonder how deep his dad's pockets are man... that phone definitely causes a bomb. I don't even think about that, I mean... my salary's just enough to get me through the holiday expenses. And its $1600... cause I owe loads of poeple cash, and on top of that $400's going to my mum as tribute. Wei Min says that's stupid, but hey... you gotta give tribute when you're older and working, so might as well practice giving now... see how expenses build up and reality crash on you when you have to improvise on your cash. Hahaha.

I'm gonna start wearing contact lenses soon. Even done some extensive research on monthly soft lenses... and it's suitable underwater! Yay... swimming with contact lenses! Hopefully I won't open my eyes too big - like in shock or something - and the contact lens drift out of my eyeballs. That's only if I don't see people stripping underwater in a public pool (which is higher unprobable anyway). But since I have astigmatism, I need to get some specialised contacts that cost a hefty 180 bucks for 6 months, the spectacles shop tells me. 180! Where am I gonna get that kind of money before CNY? I dunno... and I'm also kinda scared of the idea of putting it in your eye and pinching it out. You have to pinch the contacts out of your eye. That's kinda scary.

I bet I'm gonna spend hours in the shop trying to put the darn things into my eyes.
