Sweet aftertaste

Events that happen not too long ago.

Work at windows was surprising good for the first time. I have a protector there. *Laughs* Oh, revenge never tasted so sweet. Prada and I have finally punished the oh- so-lazy-bones-slit eyes- touchy feely colleague, Jimmie and finally he tasted his sweet medicine. Anyhow, I definitely do not have a strong predilection for him. Zilch. Nada. Void.

I have been tolerating his nonsense for the longest time and now is the time for me to make a stand so I told him off and Prada threw a couple of table cloths on the dinning table and it made a loud thud. Then only the lazy worm started bulging. We are talking about this guy that does not clear the tables, does not place the dinner setings, goes for frequent long smoke breaks and the guy that makes me carry the whole rack of glasses. Well, the list is endless. If i write on i might grow a beard.

Anyhow, this is my conversation with him.

Jimmie: Here go get the drinks
Me: *appall look* I will do for you only when it’s busy but it’s not now. So tough shit. -walks away-

His face was as black as a plate of charred blackened seafood.

I love being evil.
A tit for tat, take that.

-------------------------

Had two dinners and my tummy was a round as the earth orbit. Dinner at Indonesian restaurant at Riverside was good. Finally met Adrienne’s man. I’m so happy for her. Hope he treats her good.
Anyhow, after that was parteeee-ink at phuture. The launch of Zouk's Flava cd.

Highlights and Lowdowns of the night

1. My ass was groped.
2. Packed as sardines in the dance floor.
3. Smelly phuture guys. I swear they did not shower
4. Saw Alex.
5. Had free invites. Courtesy of Raja so I got in free.
6. Juice magazine took a photo of us.
7. Was picked up by couple of guys.
8. Raja was high and in extreme denials, not to mention it was hilarious sight.
9. Great company.
10. Great music for the last few hours.
11. Great dancing partner and he got sexy eyes. Lol. Even Alex said he was cute.

A boy named Melvin

Not too long ago, I met this boy, 20 years of age. He was a boy different from others, mentally challenged. He walk among the streets lost till he met me. I tried to help him but he ran away under uncontrollable circumstances.

Yesterday, I met that boy again. He was wearing the same green checked shirt and faded denim jeans, seeking help from others yet to no avail. He alighted at the same bus stop at me and seek help me once again but in some bizarre manner he ran away again when I mentioned it was best for me to bring him to the police station. He looked agitated and show me a note. It said:

“Melvin is a hyper active boy who needs to travel please assist him fully. Thank you.”

The note just ends there without any contact numbers. That sparked a fiery thought what kind of parents will let his child wander around Singapore aimlessly? What’s more he is mentally challenged.

Somehow, I felt a sense of lost that once again I was unable to assist him. The same feeling creep in. All I hope is that he is safe and sound and that one day there be a person who is destined to make his life a better one. I guess I am not the one.

Tragic Kingdom

I seek fortitude from this tragic kingdom where profound sadness dwells.

Quote of the day

Doesn't this quote speak volumes of a woman's heart?

“The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart - the place where love resides." Anonymous

Get it right.

Don’t you just hate it when people pronounce your name wrongly or even spell your name wrongly. I foremost certainly do. In a span of 20 years of my life, people have called me the following names:

1. Yeti ( helloooo I’m not some big foot monster, I’m in fact very small and petite)
2. Yan Ting ( This is a damn common one, either you can’t read or you cant spell. How many times must I tell you there is NO N after the alphabet A of my name)
3. Yiting ( That’s melissa’s chinese name, no offence mel but I just don’t like being called my name other then my own. Need I say more?)
4. Amy ( Wtf? It’s so different from my name. –knocks head-)

There is not other variation to my name. My name is Ya Ting. Get it right or you will get your hands skinned alive. Thank you very much.

To you I loathe

I detest people who think they are high and mighty just because they been in the restaurant longer me. Stop bossy me around Alfin, you are just a full timer.

Let me tell you something buddy, You are older but that does not make you smarter or wiser in any way and one more thing you rakes of Period because of your 3Ps.

Pre, Post Premenstrual syndrome. Maybe you should be a girl instead. Well, then again you are not qualified with a face like yours.

Ps: I hate it when people try to atone their wrongdoings by being extremely nice instead of apologising. It does not work that way for me, Mr period face.

Two heartaches and a headache

I have been thinking of little nuggets of life and somehow it is making me feel less then cheerful. Well, maybe it’s one of the days where you question everything about your life and what do you want out of it. I feel been feeling aimless and this feeling is eating into me. It is frustrating because I’m not getting there and it isn’t helping when you heard less then perfect news. Although, I heard the news a few days back and I’m still numb by it. I’m not sure how to react but all I can feel is all the numbness swelling in my heart. I wish I have done more but I didn’t so I guess I have myself to blame.

The childish feud between the both of them has bought you closer to her. Maybe it is the many things that I did not do to make things better. I was being selfish and when I told you I did not want to get involved and as time went by you try to get close to me but all I did was setting up barriers against you. Maybe that’s the reason why you left me and seek fortitude in her. I’m not sure what’s wrong with me, each time you try to come near me I just walk ten yards away, but in truth I really want to be with you.

This proves Miss Ang’s point people are SLS. (Stupid Lazy and Selfish)
I have witnessed that in the past couple of days in others and myself and it is really taking an upheaval in me.

Excuses

Artist: Alanis Morissette
Song: Excuses lyrics
Album lyrics: Alanis Morissette- So-called chaos lyrics

Why no one will help me I'm too dumb I'm too smart
They'll not understand me I'm lonely they'll hate me.

There is not enough time It's too hard to help me
God wants me to work no resting no lazy

These excuses how they've served me so well
They've kept me safe they've kept me stuck
They've kept me locked in my own cell

I'm too far from home it takes far too much energy
I cannot afford to, no one will ever see me

These excuses how they've served me so well
They've kept me safe they've kept me stuck
They've kept me locked in my own cell
These excuses how they're so familiar
They've kept me blocked they've kept me small
They've kept me safe inside my shell


Bringing these into the light
shakes their foundation and clears my sight
Now my imagination is the only thing
that limits the bar and its' rise to the heights

No one can have it all see I have to, they want me to
I can't let them down I will never be happy


These excuses how they've served me so well
They've kept me safe they've kept me stuck
They've kept me locked in my own cell
These excuses how they're so familiar
They've kept me blocked they've kept me small
They've kept me safe inside my shell
