It's been quite some time since I've written anything substantial. Well obviously it's because I stare at a computer screen at work typing typing typing and one does not want to continue doing that at home.
Life as a journalist in TNP (The New Paper) can be quite typical, but it's still interesting to me. I meet different people everyday- people of different races, from completely different backgrounds, men and women from all walks of life. It's really getting out of your comfort zone, talking to people who may be wary of you, talking to people who are three times older, talking to people who don't want to talk to you at all. It's challenging, but there's something new almost everyday.
And of course, the late nights. Journalists must be real hermits, because we have no social life. Firstly, you go to work every day not knowing when you can knock off and what you might be doing that day (unless you're like you know, doing your own story or continuing yesterday's work). Admittedly, that's very exciting for me, but it also means we can't arrange for any dinner dates. Not like F5 or SACO's very free anyway so that's fine.
That's why I've taken to renting DVDs every Sunday, because it's my source of very fulfilling entertainment. On a nice cold night it's pretty nice to lie alone on the couch outside with my pillow and warm blanket watching Sandra Bullock tell Keanu Reeves how much she loves him. Or Superman with his really hot bod. I think one can never have enough of movies. It's just the sustenance for life.
I wonder how Shit is doing! Haven't spoken to her in a couple of days. Of course she left a tag here to tell me she's finally quitting her dreaded job but still! I miss you babe!!
And of course ASS working happily in MG as a teacher heehee and who's always me randomly and always at the wrong hours to talk rubbish to me for 2 seconds and then hang up.
I wonder how the NS guys are!! I kinda miss talking to Xun, obviously, because I used to like talk to him every night. And Calcal and RongRong and lucky enough to be bed pals so I'll bet they're gaying around happily inside HAHA!
It's Friday!! WEEKEND!! Like finally!!! Work's fun, but obviously no work is still better. Call me people!! At 63194093 at my work place if you see anything suspicious or something to complain about. Or if you're just very bored like Ass always is hahaha!
