wish fulfilled

i've finally test driven the evo 9 today. it's my dream car and i'm glad to have this chance to test drive it. the feeling's really GREAT! too bad i only drove a short distance but it's better than nothing. the car's super duper powerful and u can feel the g force when u pull from 1st to 2nd gear. u literally "rush" forward and can feel the surge of the turbo. damn SHIOK!!!!!

if i were rich, i'll definitely get that car. ;P

new arrival

roadshow's finally over. can take a short breather before i embark on my next project (which is happening mid july). going to claim a day's off in lieu of the wkend spent at the roadshow.

today's the arrival of my new asst mkt mgr. based on 1st impressions, she looks quite ok, frenly type and can tell she's quite experienced in the field. she's of average height and wears quite a nice pair of specs. think she's about the same height as me but definitely much much slimmer. she got the looks of a marketing person. haha... hope i can work well with her.

signs of stress?

woke up really rather drained this morning. dug out my thick ralliart red jacket (was my uniform during the japan auto saloon) and wore it to office. a few colleagues like the jacket but felt it's a little too thick. was raining during the morning. all the more makes me feel cosy within the thick wool jacket. feel like dozing off in it......

prob coz the weekend was very packed (sat went sentosa, sun was my fren's customary wedding, monday woke up damn early to prepare for roadshow, monday nite was my fren's wedding dinner...)so i feel quite exhausted. think i lack exercise so i feel tired so easily. on the other hand, it's not only the physically exhaustion but the mental drain as well.

can't seem to concentrate much at work today. luckily it's my colleage JP who's on duty at the pit today so i could sneak down to chat. i was somewhat in a daze as i took the bus home from the interchange. almost forgotten to alight from the bus. during my shower, i put shampoo twice instead of conditioner. i feel so weak coming out of my bath and i got no appetite for my dinner. are these signs of stress?? gotta claim a day off next week to catch a short break b4 my next roadshow. i can sense the madness building up.

congrats!

many many congrats to my long time sec sch fren who got married this evening. i just got home from her wedding dinner @ pan pac. a relatively simple affair but nice. her gown is so beautiful! wish them all the best in their next stage in life...have a blessed marriage WS!

today's a super duper tiring day for me....coz early morning i was at suntec city preparing for this week's roadshow. cant believe the 3 of us took almost 6hrs to unpack and label the 300+ ralliart line items. i had to sacrifice a lot of the tshirts and jackets due to space constraints. it's utter madness!

think i should be able to sleep well tonight since i'm so exhausted. zzzz

moving..

mister furball has just moved into his new home. it's a much bigger and taller plastic 'fishtank' so he has more space to run around. thinking of getting him a wheel so that he can exercise. wat's a hamster w/o a wheel right? he's still busy trying to decorate his 'home' (a yellow hamster shaped ceramic house) with cotton wool and watever's in his mouth.

he has grown much bigger now...and is around 6 months old.his fur is quite long so i'll prob give him a trim soon. he was very naughty and gnawed a big hole in his old home. he managed to escaped but i caught him in a nick of time. think he hates me now...he runs away when i try to pick him up. ended up buying a bigger tank for him coz the old one cant be used anymore.

why are you here?

lately been really busy with the preparations for the upcoming road show @ suntec city next week. mind is full of nothing but work. can hardly relax at all. been waking up at least once during the night. sigh... is it a sign of stress?

read from a fren's blog about this new book entitled "why are you here cafe". it talks about life and how we ought to view life from different perspectives. i'm still in the midst of it...prob will comment more about it when i'm done.

a colleague who saw me buy the book commented that i ought to find a partner soon. said no point reading to find out more about life. instead should go and experience life itself. said i'm prob too bored and need more excitment so finding a partner will be just the thing i need. personally, she may be half right but i felt that finding a partner doesn't mean things will go all smooth sailing from there on. it ain't ez maintaining a r/ship.

during the late afternoon, i skipped the i car test drive event @ 1 rochester park. gave the reason that i was busy and it's true. had to tie up some loose ends for the roadshow. i dun enjoy attending such events...not a very PR / social person. which is very very odd for a marketing person ... hahahahaa....

borrowed 6 self help / non fiction books from the lib. they doubled the loan for a limited period. too bad this wkend's gonna be pretty busy, else i can drown myself in the books.

sianzzzz

been feeling a bit down lately. dunno y...just no mood. no mood to work, no mood to play, no mood to eat. i tot i would hv lost some weight but bloody hell, my weight went up instead!!

dunno y i'm feeling like that.....worried? anxiety? stress? only God knows... i really hope this phase will pass really soon. dun wanna feel like that anymore!

good news ... and bad

recently found out a good news about 1 of my frens. she's pregnant! very very happy for her...!! yeah yeah! hope all goes smoothly through the full 9 months and thereafter. :)

bad news...well not exactly bad news la...just that i've not been sleeping nor eating properly lately. yesterday i had very fast heart beats on and off throughout the day. today i only ate a small brunch at 10.30am and had nothing else all the way till 7.30pm. toally didn't feel hungry at all, which is very very unlike me. sigh..dunno wat's wrong also. i just feel super duper sianzzzzzz!!!! very pented up feelings. some of my frens told me to c a doc but i also dunno wat to say to the doc. headache sia...
