Happy Broke. Broken Happy. As you can probably tell by the title, I am broke. As in flat broke. No money. Well, at least until my cheque come through at the bank.
But I am happy. It's the kinda of feeling you get when you know you'll definitely suffer after that but then again, who cares! Worry about that later!
Shall I show thee my purchases that has led to my current predicament?
My longly hunted knee high boots that cost RM 100 from NS, AmCorp.
Two skirts from Japan.
A RM12 key chain and a Slam Dunk soft toy from Anime Tech
(shh. It's a gift)
A Babolat grip for one of my babies aka my tennis rackets.
My weekly Starbucks dosage of Java Chip ice-blended. I know this picture is not Starbucks but it represents Starbucks.
It's Gloria Jeans by the way.
Yup. As you see, I am broke but happy. Now all I need is for a nice pair of casual wear Puma or Nike shoes to fall onto my lap. And maybe a switchblade or a hunting knife as well. I like sharp things.
*hint*
Of course my state of euphoria could also be contributed by the fact it's my LAST WEEK of internship!
Peace out.

An emotional roller coaster.
That's what I am going through now. Through this whole week. I was unable to place a name to the situation of ups and downs I've been feeling and now at the end of my 6th week at work, I finally found a name for it.
Emotional roller coaster aka ERC.
Looking back, I can see why I've been feeling so lifeless this whole week because the emotional strain can really drain the life out of you.
Let's start with
monday. Considering it was the start of my sixth week aka 3rd last week at work, I tried to look at things with a positive outlook and spirit. The work load has slowed down a bit now but not to the point I am practically dying for work. It was nice and the best part was that Zoey and Yasmin were on their way back from Singapore that day. Come 530 on the dot, I braved heavy showers and pouring cats and dogs to make a mad dash to the monorail station. By the time, I reached home, it was exactly 6pm and I was energetic enough to go for a jog/run to get in shape for my upcoming tennis tournament.
Then enters
Tuesday.
Usual my favorite day apart from Friday and Saturday, I was taken off-guard by the assignment I received that morning at work. And the funny thing was it was a matter of wrong place and at the wrong time. Had I not been there at that time at that place, I would be less one assignment. Worst part was it required me to do what I hated to do. Talk to people. So there I was, running up and down the office, taking pictures of everyone
(don't ask) while resisting the urge to place my foot up some of their stuckup asses. Seriously, it's just a bloody picture. Who gives a damn if you're one hell of a fat ass overloaded with lard!
Come 530 again, I was ready to bolt out the door but noooo....They wanted me to print out the pictures in colour. Shit. So I did what I had to in order to maintain my unblemished record of never doing overtime past 6. I lied.
(insert readers' reaction: *gasp* you did!)Yup. I did.
Said that I have to run off to meet a guy about one of the initial projects I was handling. So my work was passed on. To audrey nonetheless.
(Sorry sorry sorry sorry, babe! Luv ya!)To comfort myself, I scoffed down an ice-cream from Mc'D followed by nasi lemak from Paandi.
To make my moon worst further, it completely slipped my mind that my good friend, Shaunnette Boey was leaving to Australia.
(finally) Last minute plans were made to meet up with him at Paandi.
I hate Tuesday...
Wednesday was the middle of the week and hence the worst of my ERC ride. I admit I was actually saddened by the fact Shaun was leaving
(you laugh now, Boey!) and wasn't in the mood to interact with people at all. Call me anti-social but come on, I just lost one of my closest friend to Australia. Again! Curse you, Australia!
The only good thing was that I was loaded with work. For once I was actually glad for the workload. Kept my mind off my loss.
(Let us bow our heads in silence to respect the departed...)
Thursday.....was normal. Usual workload with enough time to read fanfictions in between. I updated my stories on fanfiction.net and the reviews came pouring in. I love my reviewers! They are my dearest fans! I feel much better after reading what they said. Again I ran off early to see the aforementioned guy to collect the project materials.
(ehm!bullshit!)
Friday, which is today has only just begun and I am already planning out my steps for today as to how to appear busy. I am happy today is friday due to the fact today is friday! The end of my 3rd last week of internship!
Yay!! After today, 2 more weeks to go!
As of today, I only have 11 more working days to survive!
(does the happy dance)With this my ERC is coming to its end at least for this week. Hopefully the ride will be spoiled next week and the week after because I hate emo, anti-social me!
Ciao!

Work and TennisJust three more weeks to go....I don't know how am I gonna last that long. Well, I have survived for 5 weeks now. I suppose I just need to survive another 3 weeks. Shit man...
Work aside, I got at least a month to buck up and get into shape for the inter-collage tennis tournament. At least that is something to look forward too. The down side is if I don't find another female player for the team, I'll be playing singles AND doubles! And let it be know that I DON'T PLAY DOUBLES!
It's not that I lan si or anything. I just can't play doubles. On the court I am a selfish person who likes running after every shot and calculating my own game. In doubles I just can't find my tempo. After all in doubles u'r only as strong as ur partner. And let's just say if I play doubles, my partner will be tempted to kill me instead of our opponents. And vice versa.
So if there are any Taylor's girl players out there, step forth!
On the bright side of the next three weeks is that Zoey will be back from Singapore today. Hence I have a training partner to practice with! Yay!!
Other than that, I think Federer is going through a mid-life crisis especially with his current state. And the guy is only 25 years old!
Watching him play in the France Open, it seems to me he is hardly putting any effort into the match against Nadal. The only reason he wants in on the finals is to maintain his no. 1 status but seems to me he has given up on the France Open title.
Or maybe it's just me thinking through this too deeply.
Hopefully he won't retire the way Henin did or I shall go into depression. As in really depressed depression. Hopefully that will be years from now...
Just pointless rambling at this point to lepas steam.
Summary of this post...
Work sucks,
Tennis rocks
Federer needs to get his head back in the game.
I need to get my lazy ass back into the game.
Ciao.
