It’s 8:47 am and I’m still on the subway on my way to work. Before I have resigned, I would’ve clocked in around an hour’s work by this time. Obviously I am demotivated, miserable even. The unfairness of doing three people’s work gets to me and the fact that thy have yet to find a […]

I woke up today at 8:30 am, and got to work at a freaking late 9:30 am (considering the morning meeting starts at 7:30 am). I didn’t get too irritated or worked up after one of the salesdesk heads make a crazy lazy decision. My spiny colleague was bearable. I took a longer time at […]

We quote: The Weinholds lay out some distinctive counter-dependent traits in their book, such as having trouble getting close to people and difficulty sustaining intimacy in romantic relationships. Other characteristics include: Having limited ability to feel emotions in regards to romantic relationships (such as justified […]

I admit it! Am not as much of a spendthrift as Trader, but seriously, I couldn’t really help myself. After many many hours in the store, I finally made up my mind and indulged myself with these: It wasn’t an impulse decision. I’ve spied on these red babies from the Prada Hong Kong store a […]

Sorry for not posting anything new these days. Just returned from a 9-day trip in Eastern Europe (hip-hip hoooray!). Terribly jetlagged, so updated would have to wait. Post soon!
