16th FeBruAry 2006

Morning suppose to go for compliance briefing.. mistaken the venue.. so go to raffles place.. then rush back to tampines.. luckily still able to make it..

Had lunch with vendor..then boss bought me 1kg b'day cake at Prima Deli..after lunch.. my cols (all guys) including my boss sang song for me.. ghaaa.. so funny to see guys(uncles some more) to sing b'day songs.. i cant help it but keep laughing..then boss gave me ang pow for my b'day.. sweet huh..

my crazy cols AGAIN.. ask me to choose 4 numbers to buy 4D.. fainted

BUT.. after that.. before i finished my b'day cake.. boss gave work..rush n rush .. change n change.. till nearly 7pm.. sob sob.. suppose to meet JL..

Took train down to town..and at city hall.. as usual very crowded..i was behind a lady waiting to get down the train when reach destination..accidentally step on her sandal.. immediately i said sorry..but opps.. her sandal strap broke.. ( am thinking.. i just step slightly.. not step and drag on it..what a lousy sandal..)

Surprisingly, she looked up and asked me "are you goin to compensate me ??"
i was stunned..huh ?? spontaneously i answered " u r the one blocking my way" and i walked off..feel angry at the way she asked me..

then while i was on the escalator.. she shouted from below (she cant move fast cos her sandal broke) "YOU IDIOT !! BROKE MY SANDAL AND NOT COMPENSATE !!"

Wah lao.. all she can think of is compensate.. really.. if her attitude is nicer.. i would have helped her to a shoes shop.. but of course she dun expect me to buy her a brand new shoes.. cos i dun thk a good condition shoes can be broken that easily.. im wearing sandals myself.. i know the difference btw a good/lousy sandal.. i guess her sandal is old n goin to give way.. n just happened that i stepped on it.. so it broke..bad timing..

i feel uneasy cos im trying to put myself in her shoes.. will i ask the person who accidentally step on me to compensate like the way she did ??

i dun thk so.. the most i blame her n just feel unlucky lor.. and i wont be shouting in public to someone as "idiot".. so low EQ.. i understand her frustration cos her shoes broke n im not helping her.. but could she be nicer? anyway.. somehow i feel she deserved it for being rude

anyway... i've been bubling abt this to JL whole night.. what a bad day i had on my b'day.. pheww...then boss sms.. abt work. said the slides not really completed in the way french boss wanted .. still have lots of changes.. well.. i stayed till 7pm.. what he expect ??.. he stayed till 9pm.. but hey.. it's my b'day today .. rememebred ??

JL complaint that i keep smsing with boss..work wat.. not i want !!

sigh.. b'day should never never fall on weekday..

shall sleep through the night and forget today..except for JL's hugs..
