Another Unlucky Day

Almost nothing was smooth.
I just ended a e-chat session with some customer officer at Citibank, asking about the cheque I deposited on 30th Dec and has yet to be cleared.
She told me that it will most likely be a return cheque.

WTF went wrong with that cheque la.
I dont even wanna think about all the troubles to do with a return cheque.

Waiting for that stupid letter, SMS-ing the parent again to explain the issue, waiting for her check and issue me another cheque etc...

Headache.

I hate these kinda unnecessary troublesome things. Waste of time.


SIAN.


And this is not the first call I made customer service today.
Early in the morning when I was trying to reset my phone, I keyed in the wrong Lock Code and my phone was locked.

I had to call Starhub for PUK code. And it was lucky that I acted fast to retrieve all the needed information from my thumbdrive, and Starhub was surprisingly fast in picking up calls today.
If not I would be out to tuition without my phone.

How to survive without a phone these days? Especially when kids and parents SMS me once in a while asking me this and that.


Then these is my spectacle problem.
Wore contacts for a day and to be honest, it was damn uncomfortable.
Took me a long and hard time to put them on cos of my small eyes, or whatever the reasons la.
Felt dizzy at first and worse, every time when I blink my eyes, I could feel the contacts there in my eyes.
I dont need the contacts to tell me constantly that I have eyes, I can SEE it for myself (if you get what I mean).

But gradually it got better.
Just that it felt so weird to be without specs and had this false believe that my eyes (without specs) can see things so clearly.

If putting on contacts is hard, taking them off is harder.
It felt like you have to "pinch" your eyeball to get something out.
I dont know la. It feels disgusted to me.

But overall, this time wearing is much better than the first time.
I need more time to get use to it.


As for my specs, I have somehow superglue it back and it is good as new.
Really cannot tell that it was broken before.
Good, I can save money.

Went to specs shop today to check out some frames.
Ok, Just the ManUtd frames.
Cost $149.00.
I would be buying if my specs really cmi. But for now, everything is fine.


Plan of the day was to go shop for decorative stuff for next week's party.
But in the end no one to come with me and I felt kinda sian after tuition, so I went to walk around in Orchard for a short half an hour.

I wanted to go buy the new issue of FourFourTwo (this month on cover is PAUL SCHOLES!!!)
In the end I decided not to walk that far so I went into Courts, which is near a bus stop.

Wahlao I wanna get a new camera!
I wanna get a tablet!
I wanna get a super thin notebook!
I wanna get....

I walked out before I got anything.


Then I entered this shop that sells traveling and hiking stuff.
I wanna get a BIG hiking bag.

I entered a shop that sells camera lens.
I wanna get a telescope.

This time go back Guangzhou, I really wanna get a telescope.
I wanna look at the stars and fulfill one of my childhood dreams.


Exercised a lot of self control to get myself out of Orchard without buying anything.
(:


Board the bus home and there was this one little girl about the age of 7 who could not stop talking for one moment.
From the moment she board the bus with her mum, she had been talking and talking and talking, not even bothered if anyone listening.
So talkative.
She can talk about how to take care of hamsters, give instructions to I-dont-know-who-since-no-one-was-listening on how to take body temperature with a thermometer.

Ok that was kind cute just that her accent a bit funny.
I somehow can see her grow up to become another Mariah.
Oh then may God bless her!


My tuition kid has yet to reply me about having tuition tomorrow morning instead of Sunday afternoon.
Zzzzz. Guess I will set my alarm to wake up early to check for SMS.


Need. Sleep.

It is in the blood.
