...::: BoreD:::...

As I sit and stare at the monitor, I check the time... It's 12.52pm... Another 4 hours and 38 min before I can head home. Then it hits me... BOREDOM.

I start surfing the net... Visiting MySpace
..then on to Friendster
...then finally I fixed my speakers to my PC and am now listening to music on Radio Blog Club
. thank you CHRISTIE!!

I was actually doing some Sudoku.. then Peter decided it'd be funny to ERASE all the numbers that I had already written! Ha..bloody...HA! Now I have to start all over AGAIN!! It's ok.. nevermind... bleargh~

So today, as usual, the testing provider gave me a hard time. There was this particularly IMPATIENT candidate who just didn't seem to understand that there was something wrong with the server and that I had to reload the neccesary data for his exam before I can admit him. He then THREW a tantrum saying that he can't possibly be waiting 2-3 hours for his exam to start. He then INSISTED that I call the provider and ask them to speed things up and to ensure that he will be able to take the exam ASAP.

I did call the Helpdesk, and they just told me what I had told him. I needed to restart the system for them to reload the exam. Duh~

Then after I told him this, he INSISTED to speak to them directly. So I gave him the number to call. And guess what... They told him that they couldn't do anything. They told him that
I had to speak to the people at helpdesk and follow their procedures. HA.HA.HA. Then he INSISTED yet again to speak to them. This time he wanted to speak to the people at the Helpdesk. Too bad. He couldn't get through. Finally, I just couldn't take it anymore and told him nicely, but FIRMLY, that all we can do now is to WAIT. So he sat quietly and patiently. Most likely I scared him. He was short, and stout. Like the teapot. Nyeh~

And today, I tried my best to wake Khai up, but to no avail. Today was supposed to be his interview. I know it's important and I should have just kept trying to wake him. But it is HIS responsibility to wake up isn't it?? I mean it IS his interview. It is HIS career. I woke him up at about 9+ am and he said that he was up. I even got Daya to wake him. He just said, "Ok, ok"! Well, he's still sleeping.

I'm supposed to go to Geylang with Khai and his mom in Sunday to get my baju then buka together. Looks like we can't buka together 'cos my mom has suddenly decided that she wants to be a good Muslim and pray terawih for the last 3 days cos it's supposed to be special. I don't understand her... Just because it's fasting month, suddenly she wants to be a Saint. It's not like she prays the other 5 times. And she yells at the boys for not praying. I don't get it. Doesn't she know that if you just preach and not practise it yourself, no one's gonna listen or accept the fact that your telling them off.

Anyway... I don't know what colour baju kurung we're gonna get this year. Hmm... I still think I want ORANGE. Heh.
