22/3Daniel, Happy 20th Birthday!Had been working and absorbing as much as I can in China.Not only in the area of work but also thoughts of life.One and a half month in China, I wonder what got me to join this.Freedom, I guess.It takes a lot for someone to move away from his or her comfort zone and work in a strange environment where nothing is familiar. Especially me.I am not regretting nor whining here, just pondering.I missed all the things I have and the privileges I enjoyed in Singapore.Wah! MAMA!I have to do my own laundry, live on my own, manage my own accounts and make my own major decisions (to buy or not to buy?).Chilli got stolen, conditioner not enough, tee shirts not enough, brought useless office wear, hair dried like nobody’s business and no drinking khakis.Liquor here is freaking cheap but I have no khakis.Though Sze and Bya drink beer and Bacardi with me but still… I miss Singapore.Hate the buses, the traffic, and the pedestrian crossing.People push you around, traffic jam everywhere and the timer for the pedestrian can go to hell for good.TMD, don’t know they know how to count one or not… so fast!!!!Today, is the released of exam results.Not too bad, I must say.No Ds, no forward module and I am grateful.Had been out of touch with the civilization. No Internet, no msn and no blogging for too long (I am writing this in Microsoft Words and update it whenever possible). Maybe later, I will sneak to use my manager’s Internet access. Yes, you heard me. I do not have Internet access!!! Never mind. -_-Know a lot of friends like Jasmine, Zhong Lue, Cheryl, Qiqi, Yao Hua blah blah blah.The former two are in the same option as me but we are more of acquaintance than friends before the trip.Jasmine, SMART leader, always the sensible one is the group and I enjoy talking to her. I think everyone did. Easy to talk to, no air and she got nice personality. Chat with her a lot and I am looking forward to bunk with her. Darn her for ditching me in SMART GYL Camp! We were supposed to share the same room during Batam trip (GYL) but due to some reasons, she gave up that OPPORTUNITY!Upon hearing that she was also going to GYL and China ITP were a total turn-off but now …I guess all of us should never judge one based on another’s account or the outlook of that person. Okay, I admit I am superficial.Back to where we stopped.Both of us have the same habits, same preferences blah blah blah. Almost everything!!!NextZhong Lue, the baby, always needs help in a way or another.Hard to believe that she knows taekwondo for she looks like she cannot do anything without guys.The type of girls, guys like.Who will help a girl as tall and as strong as me?Plus, I will not accept the offer if there is or maybe I will?She is one of the Ba Zhang members, a stubborn mule in some cases, a spineless companion who always leans on people (I bet she is a very touchy girlfriend) and she set funny house rules.“NO SHOES BEYOND THE DOORWAY AREA” Diao! Room cleaner wore shoes into the room to bloody hell clean your room so what’s the point?!Now I understand why people says 相处好, 同住难 because different people have different habits.For example:Sze and I are friends for a long time and we are bunking together now in Suzhou for a month.But both of us have different habits.I like my tv loud but she finds it too noisy and like it soft.I like to watch tv till I fall asleep but she likes to sleep silently.She puts her facial stuff at the dressing table and mine is the bathroom.I like some light in the hotel room when I sleep or better still, with tv on but she is the total opposite.I bet she got a lot to complaints about me.Me talking to Von on the phone at night (so far only once), me watching tv loudly, me throwing my stuff at my side of my room messily, me being super nua (I will not get myself out of the bed to draw the curtain even if it is glaring), my momentum-like wheezing (loud breathing) and not bothering to talk much in the room.I am not a difficult roommate but I can be a terror when required.Nice as I can be, I have mood swings and temper too.Can’t be possible for me to tolerate nonsense 24/7, is simply not fair.Menses they were assumed but in actual fact it is temper.I kept my peace to avoid conflict but to them I was showing attitude.Needless to explain for they can jump into whatever assumptions they want.I simply don't care.So tiring to be always understanding this and that and sacrificing my peace to compromise others.Not trying to be calculative but isn’t that what we learnt? Try to accommodate and compromise one another. If it is always about that other person then the statement should be accommodate and compromise to that person instead.I am learning to respect myself and know my rights.No more doormats. No more tolerating to please someone.It's so stupid to suffer silently for the pleasure of others. masque me for the event 1:02 PM _____________________________________________________________________________________
