the week in retrospect

Monday:
Was ok.First day with ismail back. So I got to work under the new scheme thingy we discussed where import staff do IMPORT stuff. Had the time and flexibility to do a good job for a change instead of the usual rushing about from site to site doing inspections which so encumbered our work earlier.

Tuesday:
Felt like crap in the morning. May have more than a little to do with the cough mixture the doctor had me take. Leaves me feeling all wasted till afternoon. Strong stuff that.
A condition made only worse by Dr Ali's 'balls-less-ness'. He has this annoying tendency to say one thing and do another at times. A case in point was how he put Ai Khim in a bad light in front of all the other inspectors so as to appear as the good guy. I know they see through his veiled attempts to cover his hairy ass but still I am pissed. It is hard enough to do a decent job given our working conditions, but to have people constantly back biting one another. Does no one any good. All people do is complain about their lot yet when push comes to shove they choose to keep their mouths shut and let the so-called higher authorities decide what is good. For all her faults, at least Ai Khim stands up for what she believes in and sees her objectives to the end instead of beding to the whims and fancies of people who do not have the interest of our work at heart.
Anyway I took my half day off in lieu today. Could not take the crap. Went home after lunch with Dr at Nee Soon. Later on picked my dearie up from Cantonment Rd where she was on course. We drove around aimlessly for a bit before heading back to my place. Had an awful hor fun soup dinner at Wah Hoe's. Never tasted something so bland in recent times. Felt like eating soggy paper at best.
Then it was back home where we spent quality time together in my room until time ran out and Agnes had to go home.
*pout*

Wednesday:
Seems a blur here. can't seem to remember what i did. Probably involved char siew rice and Agnes's house. Hung around the house as Agnes had dinner, had her shower and practiced her piano. We all need time doing nothing at all once in a while...

Thursday:
After work met Agnes at Raffles City. Procured the tickets for Sound of Music. then we went about the Marina Bay area shopping before heading back to her place. Her mum vetoed our Batam trip this weekend on account of an impending 'tsunami'. So there goes that bright idea. We spent the rest of the evening cuddled up on the couch in her living room.

Friday:
Met up with Agnes at Yishun MRT. Waltzed across to Northpoint and had dinner at Burger King. We then headed off to the....Night Safari. Had a good walk around the various trails before enjoying a relaxing tram ride round the place. So romantic on a night such as this one. Too bad there were other people on the tram otherwise things coulda got a little animalistic. Hee...
