Monday again....everybody's busy, everybody's rushing, everybody but me...
I love my work, and i love the fact that its not too stressful as long as im efficient with it. I appreciate my free and very flexible time allowing me to do more things during office hours (not official matters!!). Compared to some of my friends who always stay late for work, or those who still have to work on weekends, or those who work while watching Singapore Idol...i feel very lucky. Lucky to have to a wonderful boss, lucky to have a job that wouldnt require me more than 8 hours of work, and lucky to be able to go home early everyday even if im late in the morning.
but now..im starting to get bored...im starting to think i am not happy with it anymore...i think im getting tired of doing nothing...hmm should i look for a new job now? is this a sign of saturation? or just plain boredom? ... i think i need a new project. a big one! then i will have the motivation i need to get up in the morning and walk my way to the MRT station..i think the girl (who smells so good!) im seeing at the bus stop every 8:30 at commonwealth station (one of the perks of being late, i get to see her at the bus stop) is not enough to motivate me to go to work everyday and feel good about it.
sigh....and its only monday...still four days to go...not a good way to start the week i think...so yeah...i think i should stop this monday blues...wouldnt help me in anyway...

this past week is very tiring...im not used to having visitors at my place anymore...having to go to some places with them or staying up all night talking even if im too tired...i used to be very accommodating to every guest/friend that visits me (friends from phils) ... but i came to the point wherein i can no longer stand to see the magnified fishes in the underwaterworld...or hear the animated talk in the night safari, or bargain with the auntie's and uncle in chinatown so they could get a good deal in shopping for SG souvenirs, or walk to sentosa to take their photos with the SILOSO big letters in the Siloso beach and watch the never changing story of Kiki in the Magical Fountain Show....aside from it being too expensive going to all these places (most of my visitors are not that keen to pay more than $5 for the entrance fees, so i end up paying for them too!) And if ever they pay, i feel guilty afterwards if they feel what they've seen is not worthy of what they've paid...then they will start telling me to bring them to the nice places that dont have an entrance fee... aiyoh!! (expression of exasperation by singaporeans) Singapore is a very expensive country...everywhere u go, u have to pay... if u want a nice place, expect it to be too crowded...if u want to eat good food, either you pay more or you go to hawker and dont expect more...hawker is a good place for good food but u shouldnt expect for a tissue or good service or courtesy... they're too busy for that...i dont know...im not sure if its me or its just my guest now...one good thing though is that its my bestfriend's 3rd time to visit SG..so its just ok with her if i dont tour her around...just a bit unfortunate for her officemate because i just asked my bestfriend to accompany her in going around SG... im not too eager to do those touristy thingy anymore...hmm or maybe its not me...maybe its the visitor thats why im so lazy to do those things...hmmm...maybe its the company..coz i dont really enjoy her company (the officemate) ... hehe i feel im the villain here...sigh!

last saturday, i went to sentosa with some of my friends to watch the Jazz by the Beach. They featured Walking on Water, an all girl RnB/gospel band...whoa!!!! they were soooo good!!! esp the keyboardist, Ruth Ling! i was so amazed to watch her sing and play her keyboard. i wish i could play and sing like that. Not the keyboard though but the drums. I could really feel her passion for her music...after the show, i went to the stage to talk to her for a while...she's very nice and very accommodating (and also very cute despite being too sweaty!) ... i learned she has a regular performance at Indochine Waterfront evry Tuesday, 9:30 PM...hmmm i've been thinking of going since last saturday night ... dont know... its not that im attracted to her... its like i've seen something in her that i want to have...that passion..the love for music..the way she carries herself...its so contagious! ....to go or not to go? hmmm i'll probably blog on wednesday again...oh and btw...the next day, when i went to church...i was stunned to see the keyboardist in the music ministry...it was her..no other than Ruth!! I was so surprised not to have noticed her before...she looks so different in the church...its like two different persons, the keyboardist of WOW and the keyboardist of the church... its amazing how a situation, place, and people around could make a person look so different from what she really is....there's just one thing i've recognized immediately...her passion for her music...band or music ministry, she's so good at it!
tsk tsk...one proof that im not busy, its 10:37 in the morning..its monday and im blogging...
