I must say that right now, I am finally busy doing work. What work you would ask? Major Programming Stuff? No.... I am doing a freaking data report that has to be done by the end of each week. This would continue until my arse is burnt off at the end of this IPP or I have myself punching the wits out my bloody supervisors.
As of now, 8 weeks and counting, I have finally, with much courage, decided to banter with one of my supervisors.
Ziting: hey Will, aren't you eating?
Will (My previous supervisor): Oh, no, I have some important stuff to finish up before publishing it into the UAT (Which is a once in a week deadline, very crucial). My colleagues will be buying lunch for me. How about you?
Ziting: Me? Oh, my mother's cooking lunch for me.
Will: Wow.... your mom is cooking for you? That's cool.
Ziting scampers into the pantry.
Yeah lookie here, for the first time in my 8 weeks of working at IPP, I only crapped 3 sentences before rushing off for lunch. Okay, I'm gonna digress from this topic, so I better finish it up. This goes to show that my bloody communication skills are not working, despite the 'wonderful' networking I possess in school. Yeah, hear me crap more at work == impossible.
Next topic at hand. Yeah, my mother decided to withhold my next month's allowance, for that fact that I spent near to 1300 bucks on my expenses for two months. How great is that? Now I have to replan my budget for my Redang trip and such.
Of course, this has to come with something good, I suppose. My mum has decided to cook boxed lunches for me! Yippee! Three days have passed by, and already I am savouring lunches my mum cooked for me.
Monday: Curry Chicken & Potatoes & Beancurd Skin & Cabbage, and Baked Pork.
Mum actually took the time off to try out a recipe my seventh aunt has been doing at Southhamthon, England. Behold... the suclucen Roast BABI. Actually, I'm not really sure on how my mom cooked it, but what I know is that she got this HUGE piece of pork, and marinated it with an oyster sauce-like mixture, before putting it into the broiler for 45 minutes, and cutting it up after.
My first packed lunch is simply great. You're the BEST, mum.
Tuesday: Beancurd with diced pork, and Cai Xin
Finally mom thought of my bloody weight and cooked a modest meal for me. Thank god the beancurd has the flavor, or else... hahaha...
Wednesday: Cured Vegetables with Slabs of Fatty Pork, Random Pieces of Grilled fish, and Kai Lan
She forgot all forgot about it, and got me 5 slabs of meat!! Oh yeah... Meat RULES.
I must say that the boxed lunch was a great deal,but the only flaw in this boxed lunch is that I have to wash my containers with the bloody sponge and handwashing soap at the toilet faucet. My pantry has NO SINK at all, forcing me to sneak out like a ninja, and pretend everything is perfectly normal, even if a Caucasion co-worker comes in and gives a disgusted look upon seeing my current errand at hand.
Which I will gleefully smile at and make him look more disgusted...
I have been living off nasi lemak for god knows how long, and was actually prepared to binge on Fast Food when I get my first pay, haha...
Actually, I did binge, when my bloody computer went *poof* while I was using it last Friday morning. I was so freaking stressed; I bought the computer for not even close to one year and thought the computer was done for. Images of my father and his voice thundering across the house, reprimanding us about the lack of caring, and 24/7 usage of his $10,000 investment (Yes, that's what the computer cost us over 7 years) triggered my phobia so badly, that I decided to binge at all of the fast food restaurants (Mac, KFC, BK, Long John's) I see at Marina Square. It also pretty much spurred me into a big decision to fly my Concourde to fix my bloody computer at Sim Lim Square instead of going for the 'Final' NAPFA Test with Mr. Ma.
Thank god the computer is alright. Thank god that my mom did not burst out on my overspending. And THANK GOD I WAS NOT AT FARKING HOME WHEN MY DAD BURST OUT ON THE SPOILT COMPUTER.
Thank God.
