This month I've learnt the art of having tons of patience while making sure clients are kept happy. Even though, deep inside I just felt like putting a gun on my head due to the severe pressure (annoyances) from one particular client. Thank god; she's leaving that company end of this month.

I'm practically broke even though; I just got my pay. Why? Well, had to give half of the salary to dad so that he could send my car for servicing. Timing belt is due to be changed and so on. Not really into knowing which parts does what in a car. Boss's wedding will be end of Sept; fasting month. Yes, I will be fasting. So, I can survive a month without spending too much on food *winks*

Last but not least, selamat hari Merdeka! (happy that it's a holiday!!!)

Another hectic week. Thank god, I'm not working this weekend! Looking forward to meet up with Evonne this Saturday.

Why a hectic week? Well, one of the co-workers broke her back while climbing up a tree to pick fruits. Don't ask me why she did that; I'm clueless myself as why a 27 year-old lady would climb up a tree on her own. So, her workload has been delegated to the whole marketing department (that's my department). I get to do the promo pages for a certain Malay magazine while still doing my own work. So, I foresee that I'll be working late nights soon enough. Signs of stress are already here; I woke up late for work today while nursing a bad case of backache.

Later, need to head over to Sunway area to pick up goodie bags from the client. Which reminds me that I need to stop by at Pyramid to get shopping vouchers that is needed for the event. At leats I get to get out of the office for awhile. Luckily my own work is done.

Oh yeah, finally got my sunglasses.

Friday is finally here. Confirmed I'm not working this weekend. Making Shari a very happy girl. Planning to chill out at home on Saturday and hang out at Plaza Damas area on Sunday with Yanti and Aizura. Cousin's shop is there (the flea market) so planning to buy some stuff from her shop..or maybe, I should save up for the phone. We'll see how things goes *winks*

The card came this week; doing my best not to use it. Dad got it for me; for god-knows-why. He just said "Make sure you pay before the bank charges interest" I was like OK! I was planning NOT to own any cards but dad said its best to have one in an event of emergency. Hopefully, my will power is strong enough.

BB's house got broken into on Monday. They took his wallet, phone and so on. He didn't mesmerize my number so he just e-mailed me to tell me about the break-in. He said sorry for not calling and whatever. I didn't even notice that he DIDN'T call. Signs of me not being INTO him. Maybe I should tell him......

I'm at the office, yes it's a Saturday and I'm working. The girls of the 17 Star Search are doing their training at the office so I have to come to work. Not that I have better things to do but I was kind of hoping to take a break this weekend. To comfort myself, I keep telling myself "you're getting paid, don't worry!!!"

For the past 2 weeks, I have not gone shopping except for some medicines and my beloved face cream. This means I might (ok, I will) buy a new cellphone before the year ends. The only thing that stands in the way would be if the monthly expenses isn't well-budgeted or I go on one of my crazy shopping spree. Dad reminded me that I need to set aside some money for the car's insurance and the oh-so-cheap security system; need to pay for both at the end of the year. Next month, I'll be paying for my car's maintenance service; for the first time. That would probably cost me somewhere between RM300 to RM500.

One mmore thing that I'm determined to achieve before the year ends is cut out the "friends" that keeps upsetting me or the ones that don't deserve my attention for reasons like they only find me when help is needed and so on. Friends like that are easily replaced and luckily, I only have 1 "friend" who is like that.

On a brighter note, BB is insane........over me. But, I'm stepping back for awhile coz I need time for myself.
