Slice of Life

FINALLY got a week off to relax and catch my breath.. and what happens? I get sick -_-
Life is so not fair

I think I’ve been way too stressed and tired this summer, that when I finally have the time to rest, everything just rushed out. Like a volcano eruption -_- Head hurting so much, sore throat and weak body with no strength.. sniff T_T

And this elementary school teacher getting paid at 90k/year.. a huge WTF?? No offence to the teachers (some of my friends are teachers), but still.. Engineers doesnt even make that much… geez.. I want a big fat raise too =(

US Open, I’m hoping for another Nadal vs Federer showdown.. tho Federer seems out of it.. he looks so vulnerable.. he doesn’t look like that unbeatable beast anymore

Finally got a 2 day worth of rest that I really needed. after a combined of 50 hours of overtime for the past 2 weeks, i think i deserved one

A recap of the weekend:
Sat:
- Went ‘drink tea’ with parents for father’s day.. and as a family activity in general. havent spent a good weekend with my parents in a LONG time. To the point I feel weird having both sat and sunday off.
- Went to Fairview and Ikea with mom, after dropping dad off to home so he can catch Euro Cup. Quality shopping time with mom, woo, when was the last that that happend? XD
- Picked up a pair of kaki pants for work, and then Mario Kart for my Wii. There goes my summer spending quota. XD Saw some really nice polos at Urban Planet, but didn’t get those.. gotta save! I really like the new renovated Fairview. But I’m still in search for a nice chair for my study room, my red rocking chair is too warm for summer. =/
- Played a bit of mario kart, then went and took a nap. Ahh.. weekend afternoon naps.. how nostalgia…
- Dinner, then nothing but chilling infront of the comp
Sunday:
- Went shopping for food with mom.. that sure lasted a while XD btw, yay for nice, pretty bakery girl!
- spend 2 hours on work related stuff.. still got so much to do -__-
- read a few books.. picking up new knowlegdges.. go go sharepoint!
- afternoon nap.. which lasted 30 mins.. still good!!!
- mythbuster marathon!!!!!!

It’s funny, after a year long of weekend shifts.. im at a point where i have no clue what i should do during the weekends when i have it off. went to pmall last weekend with friend.. and i was like “either there are alot of ppl here today for some reason.. or i just totally forgot how crowded pmall is during the weekend”.. i think the it’s the latter one XD

to be honest.. half of my motivation and goal to work hard and save lots of money disappeared last winter.. along with a future i planned.. but i guess that’s just life. right now.. i have a new goal, one simple clear goal.. save up enough money in 5 years to buy my own place, with my own earnings. not for anyone else but myself. the other stuffs.. i will leave them for later.

a my lil predictions for sports:
- celtics is goin to win it at game 7
- holland is going to steam roll thru euro cup, only to lose to Portugal/Span in the final

Congrats to Tiger Woods for winning the US Open, that man.. is a true champion.

Going to be earning some major overtime pays this summer.. Looking forward to my pay cheque $__$

3 days of mourning period, a good move done by the Chinese government.
Continue praying..

As for NBA.. the conference finals are going to be tense! Hornets, what can i say? I guess experience counts when it comes to critical games.. Raptors.. DO NOT TRADE CALDERON!
