Shit my Mum and sis say:
(Mum crawls around the living room sweeping up strands of hair)
Mum: Eh why are you all dropping so much hair! I think you need to follow Daddy to Beijing 101
Belle: Sorry... The guy who sat opposite me was stressing me out (refers to le math tutor)
Mum: Wahlao I'm paying him 70 bucks per hour to stress you out?!
Belle: Sorry...
Mum: Eh you all better stop dropping hair ah. Can make wig alr.
So it's my off day again! 2 more days of being at the Front Desk before I get another newbie to train! LOL. yea I'm like a noob training a fellow noob. But oh well, I actually enjoy sharing whatever I know with someone else, however limited. It's like how I enjoyed ogl-ing so much! Plus I get to skive in the Back Office since they can't possibly make me leave the poor trainee alone while I tend to the Front Desk woohoo! I'm already getting pretty jaded actually. I counted yesterday. 6 more weeks and I'm done. Really really can't wait! hahaha!
In other news, I went shopping today. Got a petticoat (aka that skirt you wear underneath your see-through clothes) for 10 bucks, a red romper and a blue floral Laura Ashley inspired dress for 28 bucks. So that makes it around $14 each? Quite reasonable I guess. But after being used to flea market prices and all, I still felt the pinch. I mean I have $4/5 dresses that look perfectly fine and of good quality. But nowadays, I don't really have company to go on fleas with. don't really have a shopping buddy too. Man I sound like a really sad soul who needs to go make more friends:/ Truth be told, I really don't know who to ask. My closest girlfriends are away and I'm left with really good friends who just don't share that much of a connection with me when it comes to shopping:/ plus they all have their new friends from uni. So yea.
Sometimes I get really worried that I'm being left behind in the rat race. But there's something more to life than that, I tell myself. What about life here then? I've always been the passion driven one. Set out where I wanted to go from the start. But at this point when my whatsapp keeps buzzing with an ongoing debate on whether a law career is better fuelled with education track A or B, I'm beginning to worry. I know that possessing passion for something is the stepping stone for success in most arenas and that if I keep on going in this direction, I am bound to see light one day. But for someone who has hailed from a somewhat above average-elite educational background and seeing most of my friends go on to assume traditionally approved degrees in law/medicine, while I see myself deviating and mixing around with another crowd at work, speaking a completely different language, I feel myself derailing. I believe in the end, all of us will end up achieving success in our chosen paths. We are after all, us. But at this point, I'm finding quite abit of trouble to muster this courage to continue believing and persevering. So many uncertainties lie ahead and I, I am alone. rawr.
