At work now, with nothing better to do, I decided that I should do some blogging since it has been sometime since I last did so. By not blogging I could've disappointed my only, say... 3 ardent readers?
Whatever it is, just to people who are curious about my life, I am currently in the midst of a financial crisis (stupid US market...) and a freaking huge headache. Had a very bad stomachache on Tuesday together with the ever hate-able cramps. What more can go wrong than leaving the office at 7.30pm in a freaking huge rain and walking to the bus stop which is like 8mins away.
Anyway, I have made it past those days and survived! Therefore, I should be grateful for that and ultimately glad that the disastrous week is ending soon. Just because there is Project Runway tonight and it being Friday tomorrow, I am in a relatively happy mood. Plus, I will be meeting Ning later for dinner - she got me an organiser! *claps happily*
As well, you know that when you dream about someone or something, it's because you miss that someone or something alot? Well, I had a dream last night about Kang Kang and my jacket which I had with me for only 3wks before it was stashed in someone else's closet. My dream was basically simple. I was just strangling Kang and forcing him to spit out my jacket. I think its just cos I miss my jacket whilst Kang was really more of the calefare.
And back to the topic of my boring life in office. Ever since I stepped in, I have been regurgitating Press Releases, product summaries, brand broiler plates and anything that has got to do with writing. The next time you use the menu, please be grateful for the people who provided you with the summary of food ingredients and the ever wide range of vocabulary used to describing a stupid beef burger. I'm like practically squeezed out of vocab to describe food.
You think so easy to describe food? Wait till you describe 100 or more food items and above. Having written so many press releases for industries like entertainment, hospitality plus currently, food. I really think food is the worst of the lot.
Take in the sight of sizzling ingredients... flavours blended... The range includes tantalizing flavours... in short, all of it is 'wai chui nei ruan'... as my Chummies know best. My favourite Ma La Huo Guo chicken is 'wai chui nei ruan' and my all time favourite Taiwanese Porridge with Tao Gei also 'wai chui nei ruan'.
Anyway, I really do not wish to be doing Press Releases for the rest of my life. No more writing!! Writing SUCKS!! Come to think of it, it also means that I cannot write for my blog. Okie, I take back what I said and change it to writing sucks on an occasional basis.
Occupational hazard is hard to avoid. Sometimes, when I read other blogs, I just can't help it but laugh at the way it was written, not one sentence is grammatically right and the spelling... OMFG!! Funny in a way but a real disappointment knowing that the government even has to start a 'Speak Good English Campaign'. It really isn't the singlish, it's just the basis of speaking or writing grammatically accurate English.
I guess blogs are just informal ways of writing that is why I like it. But '...all my personals things...' doesn't really sound right.
Whatever it is, it wasn't right of me to scoff as well. Till then...
With lotsa cream & sugar...
