Ranting

I'm so tired.

I am starting to believe that job-hunting is also a full-time job okie. No joke. Time spent poring over newspapers, poring over job sites, and then editing and re-editing the resume till it looks okay...and then comes the cover letter to ensure it looks okay as well.

I cannot believe how tired I am just from doing this. I have been at it all day, mind you.

I've got an idea what I wanna pursue, but it ain't gonna be easy, precisely because it's a radical change from what I have been studying for that last 4 years. I don't deny that being an engineer will ensure higher pay, and in one of the leading companies. However all I have is passion, and since my passion overrules the money issue, so passion is the way to go. :)

I hope I can find something I really like!!!

I realised today how I have been treating someone for granted. Quite bad huh? So I say I want dinner, that someone turns up for dinner with me. I want supper, and supper it is too. I have always taken all these for granted until I realised that there are many others who can actually gush over such simple things.

What has happened to me leh? Geez. I used to gush also. But somehow along the way I got used to it and if supper or dinner doesn't materialise I get kinda grumpy and tantrumy.

I must learn to appreciate these little acts once again.

Now it's no longer dinner, or supper. It's cuppaucino!! Haha.

I bought 2 tops over the weekend, shirts in fact, in preparation for any interviews that might come my way. Pretty happy with my buys! It's all thanks to U2, G2000 and Fox having sales at the same time. Fox sales is madness!! 70% (approx) off for 3 items or more. But I gotta control because I cannot buy anymore Fox clothings. Haha.

My clothes cupboard is full of casual wear and very, very little officewear. This has gotta change.

Maybe I should invest in a suit too. :) Gonna check out G2000 this weekend again.

Sometimes I worry that I spend more than I save. Or in other words, now that I am not earning, I am so worried that my savings are going to disappear without any warning.

Control, is the order of the day. Cannot eat too expensive, cannot buy too many things. Hah.

Talking about buying stuffs, I end up with little or no space at home to stash them. Might as well not buy right.

Oh I bought like 3 bedsheet sets in a week. I am crazy, I know. Haha. I feel like an aunty, looking at bedsheets at the bedlinen department of Robinson's, and even more so, when grabbing good deals for bedsheets at John Little. It's the power of sales, I believe.

I got myself higher threadcount bedsheets this time, so I guess I can sleep with a smiling face at last. Haha.

Believe me, threadcount ought to be at least 280 per cm square. Anything less than that, wouldn't last for more than a year.

This time I smart, I got myself a 320 threadcount bedsheet. Tee-hee.

Anyway! I never knew bedsheets can be so expensive till I saw one which is like $700 bucks for a set. But of course, the threadcount is like 458 per cm square so maybe that's part of the reason.

You will be sleeping literally on gold if you get this set. Haha.

This post is incoherent and nonsensical but nevertheless, it's a post because I wanna rant. :)
