Foxytrannies - Surviving the earthquake :damn!

Sly cunning fox seem to be popular and well-liked by many. But not in the eyes of those who worked with her.

Her story of becoming a village chief in quick sucession was like Cinderella story except that she was a cunning fox and she is no kind soul, nowhere near cinderella.

She rose from rags to riches and she has a fairy godfather to thank for.

Of all skills that she honed (not many skills she had though), she specialises in "tripod" skills. To her it was her survival skill. She would not have survive in this harsh world without her specialty skill coupled with stupid buggers who fell for her tripod charms....

Whenever fox perform her tripod skills, all villagers cuddled together and cringed. It was so fake and unsincere.

The villagers prayed for a great earthquake which would disperse the village and hopefully they could escape the clutches of the fox and could see light once again...

Alas, the tremors of the earthquake was imminent and the ground was shaken.

The village was not torn apart; it became BIGGER!

Horrors! It's a tragedy to the villagers...The fox's harem just got bigger...Her cockiness and ego just grew bigger...Poor villagers just got poorer at the instance the tremors of earthquake hit home....

The villagers might not see light for the next five years as they succumb to the fox's treacherous control......

To be continued.....

Silly Great Earthquake

This coming Great Earthquake is driving me nuts....

Frankly, all the crap about "We do not just do all these during this period (when the big day is looming)", I m sick of hearing/ seeing such crap on news...

Sure, all these blk visits, town days are not events out of the ordinary, it's just that these events suddenly sprout out after 5 years of indormancy....

True enough and I agree that you guys have these events all along but hell, its not every month you have 5 town days and almost every other week, there is a press invite from me to the press!

I m sure the staff of the various media's news desks are getting sick of my faxes, emails and my calls....actualli, I m sick of calling them too.

The Great Earthquake to me, is nothing more than a ostentatious, ridiculous PR competition...Who gets the most publicity wins the votes!

It's silly to see many political honchos bragging about what they have done for the community...what's the point?

I tink its not just the Great Earthquake in S'pore, Earthquakes everywhere else in the world are just....sigh....plain silly.

If I were a voter, I would be like most S'poreans, vote for the incumbent but complain like hell about them....

PS: Clumzcat - you are still in EC GRC...if EC is contested (high chance it will be contested), you would need to vote...You will only know if its contested or not on nomination day...When is nomination day? No one knows yet. But people are guessing that it would be in late april..Once parliament is dissolved, the nomination day would be near. I will keep you posted if you are required to vote and when to vote :)

Idiot!

I have to say this because this is extremely annoying!!! There’s some individual here whom we have seen each other in many events and instances but that person simply refuse to acknowledge my presence or talk to me. Fine, so I take the initiative to smile, hoping that person will at least smile or better still say, ‘Hi’ and we’ll strike a conversation. But that person just look away! How annoying!

You might be wondering why don’t I be the one to make the first move? What’s the big deal?

Ok, here’s the thing. I know that person obviously saw me and in fact was looking at my direction at several instances but refuse to look at me directly. And occasionally hovering somewhere nearby but never in my eye. So I played cool because I was talking to somebody and don’t want to be distracted but I sensed that person is looking at me and therefore we are existing at the same time zone. This is women’s 6th sense. Finally, I think I shouldn’t be so childish and being older, I took the initiative to smile. The response I got is that person just look away as if I didn’t smile. Is it because I am that hideous? Or a piece of vegetable or meat got stuck in between my teeth that person feels embarrassed to tell me or look at me in case an outburst of laughter ensured and humiliate me to the core?

My conclusion is that for unknown reasons my presence makes that person uncomfortable so I’m going to stay neutral and not let it bother me. Oh well, sometimes, others just don’t like someone because of how one looks. Cruel world! But hey, I’m not that ugly right???

Whatever it is, whether or not I am pretty or hideous, it doesn't matter. What matters is that I feel better now! Hee hee!

Lesson Learnt Once Before About Friendship...

We are sometimes forgetful.
Forgetful about...

"Oh shit! I have two appointments on the same time same day!"

Ya, now nearer to the date and then remembered abt it...
HOW NOW?!
So, NOW HOW?
Eh... choose one gp and say "sorry" to the other?....

It's always easier to choose an more impt event 1st, say family dinner or beloved's BD or company dinner or some impt event... and then hope the other gp understand... Rite?

BUT, wat if it was the SAME "outing reason"??

Truthfully, I make this mistake once before. Ms Pig scolded me on the phone abt wat she was angry about my choice. I had already agreed to meet up with Ms Pig and her gang for gals gathering... and somehow completely I forgot abt it!!! Ya lah, I then also agreed to meet another gp of friends. Few days lata when Ms Pig reminded me about the gathering, in my mind was flashed with....

"Siao liao~ crashed on same day!!! How how? Aiya... must decide FAST to confirm which one... esp Ms Pig now on the line. I'll better tell her now."

With my very small braincells, I decided to "sorry" abt not attending the gals' gathering. Why? Cos I was thinking that this lovable gp of gals have been so many years with me. Maybe more understanding... and won't angry about last min had to "fly plane"... That's wat people usually says, you always very chin-cai with the closer ones and be polite to less-closer ones... (E.g. I easier to throw tempers to own family or closer ones, and "endure" the other.) Sort of taking the group who dote me for granted maybe... Eh, dunno how to explain lah... That kinda feeling loh. Or should I say I SCARED of the other gp who will be saying me "Bo steady... Wah liu... very wet blanket leh!" or just simply ignore me!

Ya lah, the moment I told Ms Pig that I couldn't make it suddenly, and of cos she wanted to noe WHY. Then I told her, I got also another frds' outing on the same day. She was totally pissed off! She's not angry about my forgetfulness, but about my choice.

"Wah liu!!! We not ur frds meh? How could you? You promised me long ago liao. Eh hello?! We asked you 1st leh. Okie, you have fun loh. Go on. You GOOD! Bye bye!"

I faster called her back and apologised. I started to realise something from there. I think I had really took them for granted. I shouldn't scared about the other group angry and not fearing the closer ones angry with me. Ya, true enough. They asked me 1st. And I promised them earlier. I knew that for a "pre-asked" appointment that was asked out long ago was much MORE SINCERE than a last-min appointment for a same outing reason.

After all, to me, a last min appointment is like...

"Oh... you got ntg to do for the day, start thinking of anyone who can accompany you?!"

From then, I appreciate more to friends who ask me out EARLIER. It's never easy to be an organiser anyway! From then, I started to see how much I mean as a friends to others too. Lesson learnt.

If some of my frds ever knew that actually there were times which I was really disappointed that one called for an last min outing, but I replied fast. I said okie... cos I was free. BUT after an hour, he/she confirmed to cancel the outing, cos the others can't make it. I felt that my presence ain't any importance at all unless there was this one frd who also "need" to be free to this outing. Since then, I immuned to this kinda of reaction... No longer felt some importance to this kinda friendship. It's more like a "have fun together and dun think so much", or rather just a "purely more than 3-pp outing only". There was nothing more closer since then...

Still remember a yr ago... I sincerely asked XX out for a dinner on my BD nite a mth ago. A wk lata, she said that she got a frd's BD too, can't join me for the dinner. I was then depressed... Cos I also BD that nite mah! Til I told her how I felt... which maybe slipped off her mind like wat I did to Ms Pig. I really touched that she decided to postpone celebrating her frd's BD and joined me for my BD dinner. At least I knew I wasn't an "extra" frd bah! Lolz~

Then then a week ago... we had this outing. YY agreed to have this small gathering dinner. Til a day before the gathering, when I started email to remind everyone. But alas... YY told me tt she might not make it to the gathering dinner, cos of playing a sport with other gp of frds. Well.... I was saddened that she forgotten abt the "date" and then even when last min she remembered abt it, but the fact that she din reject the "sportive group". The next day morning when she confirmed not attending... then I Zzz.. gave up hope on showing any angry face. Anyway, I really had a bad day at work already. Until the very last min, YY decided to join us for the dinner and not going for the sport... I started to tell her how I felt earlier one, and she was expecting it actually... hahaha... Glad that this dinner still a good and happy ending one. Glad that I still got some importance in her friendship... hurhurhur...

Well, maybe I was setting myself some standards for friendships... and maybe petty,...

But every actions that I or frds ard me do mean smtg to me;
OR we actually somehow might tends to take each other for granted...
After all, it was my sweet little Ms Pig for enlightening me in the very 1st place also lah~ Hahaha...

And since then, I became more senstive to most of my friendships...

If I were to choose an ability, I hope NOT to be forgetful...
After all, it also feels terrible to last min "fly plane" to ANY groups of my frds.
