Ugh.
Fever + aching limbs + runny nose + sneezing fits + sore throat = perfect recipe for the flu.
Am annoyed with the doc who told me to get the flu jab because although I know it doesn’t prevent all strains of flu, it didn’t decrease the severeness of the symptoms of those it doesn’t protect […]

Update
A friend remarked that she doesn’t mind getting asked the “When are you having kids” question because it shows that people are concerned and that they care.
Well, good for her if this makes her feel good.
But for me, I strongly disagree with this if I were in the same situation. I’m a private person - […]

When people tell you it’s the biggest day of your life, don’t ever believe it.
Because you know what? It isn’t yours to begin with.

I get very irritated when people don’t know how to keep public restrooms clean.
You’d think corporate people would be more civic-minded but no, they are not.
I am especially annoyed when they don’t clean up their mess after they use the toilet because I have to clean it up so that the next person who uses […]

Project A : 4000+ mandays
Team size : 50 at peak
Duration : 1 year
Project B : 80,000+ mandays
Team size : An army
Duration : Across several years
Scope : Similar for both.
If this is not a recipe for failure for Project A, I don’t know what is.

On the other hand, it feels good to be recognized and appreciated […]

Had a short powwow over cake and coffee, with the app manager after our gruelling full-day session with the client.
He is from the London office and he shared the differences between his office and the KL office.
The stark differences between how the London office values their staff vs. the KL office is quite appalling.
It seems that […]

Why is it when we are kids, we’re so eager to grow up. But when we’re adults, we keep wanting to be kids again.
Life is so blaaaahh… bored, restless, demotivated, unappreciated… and the damn ectopic thing is back again. Gah!
There must be something more to life than this… must dig deeper and find it before […]

…when people think that I don’t know what to do and they feel it is their duty to tell me what to do.
…when people make it seem like they are helping me but in reality, they are trying to steer my actions in the direction that they wish.
Seriously… can people just leave me alone to […]

ARGH!!! I swear some people have no toilet etiquette whatsoever!
If you drop toilet paper on the floor, pick it up!
If you’re using the bidet correctly, the water shouldn’t be splashing OUT of the toilet bowl and into the next stall, wetting my pants!
If you soil/wet the toilet seat, bloody clean it up!
And why can’t people […]
