Damn the government doctors

...earning big bucks just by tending to a couple of patients per day.

Visited the dentist some time back and damn it was expensive. Consulted a specialist (ok my fault, needed a thorough check what after so long, like a year or 2?) and gotten a few GOLDEN words from her in return for the effort.

"You probably have a Dry Mouth problem."

That's it? I was expecting her to do some tests on me which I had seen on television.

So she cleaned up a little, no polishing even cause "no stains". That wasn't what I saw though, but alright, you are the expert. At least there were no decay or other problems detected. The consultation ended after handling me some consumables, which I gladly took 3 packets of since I thought they were plainly some "samples". In other words, I thought it was FREE. Forgive me, not that I am a 'kiasu' aunty who would queue up for free stuffs but is that I hardly visit the doctor, moreover, the bill was kinda high enough and I had to fork out another 9 bucks for the consumables still!? So not acceptable.

Each ziplock bag consists of toothpaste, mouthwash, gum and some disgusting gel to put in your mouth. They somehow contain a type of enzyme that aids in the production of saliva which I find it somehow effective (for the next hour) in helping me salivate and fight my Dry Mouth problem.

So, the bill adds up to about 130 bucks which I 'lan lan', no choice, had to pay. At least now I can assure myself I am gum-disease-free, no longer have to bother going for any specialist visit and start taking a "queue number" for my next dental visit at the polyclinic.


Sending in the receipt to HR for my pathetic $30 claim. Now tell me how contributive is that?

Sure sure, better than none. =[

What's your Fat-Dish?

Gay guy!

Whats the big fuss? I think I myself am a guy stuck in a female body. Thats why normal guys dont like the 'garang' me and gay guys dont like the female-looking me. They are total upfront. Macho. Total respect man. Except to those attention seekers, act-alikes. They suck big time!

oo.. and I totally like to do the chasing part. Only those I fancy. But I always fail in this area. (Ok maybe I dont actually "chase" but drop a few hints only.) So once you get the hint that I am not into you, please automatically disappear and stop all the disgusting act. Total turn-off.


I am so tired of restraining myself. Living with all those stupid philosophies that no one gives a damn about but me.

Actually. Not quite.

Waiting to meet some down-to-earth person who is worth my time and energy. Obviously it wasnt the assholes that I have met so far. However, just whenever I thought I have met one, it eventually wasnt meant to be.


You know... I am quite a funny and crappy person. But somehow becomes the boring Jane when I am being too hard on myself for no apparent reasons. And thats hard for people to know ME.


I havent been doing this horoscope quote thingy for a long time. But when I saw this today, I decided to paste it here.

Circumstances beyond your control have thrown you into the middle of a powerstruggle today -- but that doesn't mean you have to acknowledge it or feed into it. Just keep doing your thing, minding your own business, and letting the warring parties fight it out without you. Don't play along, and don't rearrange your schedule for anyone or anything -- would they do the same for you? Or have you noticed that the people who always expect your help are never around when you need some?


This is like always the case for me.

But its ok.

I will live even better alone than to live with people like such.

But I will still have to say that it is a privilege to be able to give and provide.


The problem with most of us is that we never learned to take time to listen. We spent to much on exercising our mouths that we forgot.

"We had learnt to speak when we were 2 years old, but some of us had never learnt the art of listening, not even till we grow 60."



O yes, that cutie is totally gone for good. Simply disappeared from the surface of (my) earth. Good luck to him wherever he goes man!

From a reliable source

Heard that the cute guy will be leaving soon. *Saded* Nothing for me to look forward to already. Anyway, he hasnt been coming up lately. *More Saded* Bleah.

I wanna leave too!

Not that my job is really that sucky. My supervisor and the girls brighten up my everyday. Just that I hate admin + desk bound jobs and I want something more challenging.

Been thinking lately about doing marketing in the future. Selling not included please. At least not those misinterpreted "Sales & Marketing" positions (where they could have just advertised for a sales person) or too commision based sort. Maybe slightly similar to what I wanna do but studying Mass Comm might be an even closer match. But a Mass Comm student is always outspoken. ={ Aleast someone who speaks and writes very well. Gotta keep a lookout see anywhere offers a degree for that.

Sent out about 2 resumes to event companies or wat already but I doubt I would receive any reply from them... Everyone wants someone with related background. No tini weeni bit chance for me man.

"Nobody wants me, everybody hates me, I'm gonna eat some worms!..." Is that how it goes?

Speaking of studying, think my sister has decided to go study abroad in Australia early next year. Actually she had mentioned that she isnt really into engineering and I wanted to talk to her about her decision, but decided not to burst her bubble ultimately. At least I know if she put in a little of effort, she will be able to excel in whatever she does, so its alright. She will still benefit.

She is so different from me. I dream alot, I think alot. But nothing gained eventually. Always 'ban tu er fei'. At this point of time still a little aimless.
