I've got enough of E-Journals, E-Databases and all that E-kky stuff.
Been searching for a good article for the article critique the entire night and it's soooo difficult to find a good one. Yucks and Shucks... Feeling so fed-up. My initial fulfilling day just deteriorated into an-unfulfilling one... Finally I found one that sounds quite good... "Beyond the Balanced Scorecard: refining the search for organizational success measures" Just pray hard that there are things for me to write... I can challenge some of the assumptions, and heck.. Just follow the "How to critically critique an article" framework given by Prof la...
Did a furious scroll of the article. Note: I didn't even scan through... I just scrolled through it. ANd it seeeems technically demanding... like I need a PHD and DOCTORATE in performance management to comprehend it. Shucks....
HELL WITH ARTICLES.
**CKS
Actually today's pretty bloggable.
Started off the day with my usual inherent ignoring of any sound devices whose function is to switch on my conscious state of mind. I've noticed a trend of my body ignoring alarms especially when I go to bed after 12 midnight (or somewhere there). Well, I would say my body's really
got the nerves. Shows attitude all the time by hack-caring the alarm clocks. It's got so much
nerves that my body's only response to Dearest-Mingli-my-roomie's-alarm-clock-that-was-built-to-wake-the-entire-hall is a mere flipping and turning in bed.
As such I was 2-auditionee late for the emcee auditions whom I was supposed to be auditioner... Thank goodness they started without me cuz this guy I knew went first and it would be difficult for me to pass a judgment on him. Don't want to be biased or anything like that... Hah.
The rest of the auditionees were amazingly unamusing cuz they were overshadowed by the new PRO committee who apparently inherited the old PRO committee's traits of being eccentrically talented. Seems like there's a hell lot of born actors and actresses with dramatic flair within us... Birds of the same feathers flock together. Chickens and Ducks should not mix around.
Well, feel myself getting better this year- with a better eye for talent :) Always benchmarked my views of the auditionee's performance with co-auditioner who this year, happens to be a very experienced emcee and DJ. Yeah :) Think the experience I acquired over the past year as an emcee and emcee manager helped quite a bit. Can work towards being a talent scout. Hahaha! Let the money start to roll in...!
ANYWAY... went to Jurong Point with nicole, hoining and tuzhi after that... and GUESS WHAT?!?!? I saw this dress that I wanted to buy soooo much sometime in the beginning of the year...! It was price-tagged at a hefty SGD79 bucks then and i couldn't bare to burn a hole in my pocket... (Hell... 79 does not too much whenever I start thinking of my perm argh) But anyway, here's the CATCH.
THE SAME DRESS. EXACT SAME DRESS WAS GOING FOR A HOLY SGD TWENTY EIGHT !28!!!!! dollars!!!!!!!
I never regretted not buying the dress at that time.
Gosh... plus another 79 bucks dress I bought from LVER that day... that means I spent $107 on 2 dresses and I would like to say I've gotten a gooooooddd bargaiN!!!!! If I had succummed to my desires at that time, I would have spent $158! I FEEL GOOD man!!!!!!
I've been burning a BIG hole in my pocket recently... My depressed state warrants some therapy in the form of splurging to get things that I desire.
Ok. After this dress, I am telling myself to keep in view of the future.
STOP SPLURGING FROM TODAY, michelle. That's it. NO MORE SHOPPING.
Hell... I just recalled I need some bottoms. Keep interchanging between 3 bottoms... oppsy...
NEVER MIND JUST WEAR SKIRTS...
okok... just wear skirts... why care too much...
BUT I WILL LOOK TOO DRESSY IF I WEAR SKIRT IN SCHOOL!
aiyah! never mind la.... who looks at you anyway?!?!?!
.............. TRUE .................
***the truth is always beautiful***
zzzzzZZZZZZZzzzzzzz
After a mediocre meal at LJS, thank goodness the company was great- with fantastic PRO people around... it was
HANDOVER time.
Elation. Talked soooo much, shared soooo much, spilled all the beans about what I do... and man.. Hoi looked a bit taken aback... Felt a great sense of accomplishment having handed-over to her, and having finished my AGM report... cuz after Monday's AGM and Tuesday's Investiture, I'm gonna find GREAT HAPPINESS AND MORE TIME to indulge. Indulge in school work.
I can't wait to read up more about Political Econs and Strategic Management. Especially SM simply because I like mind games and I like strategies. I've got to be a little more risk taking and more decisive. Improve on my decision making skills. Gaps and deficiencies in me that I want to fill.
ME: Excuse me, Michelle, it's 1.35am can you get out of that serious mode straightaway? This's not the time for it.
Sincere apologies yah...
Came home had a very hearty dinner while watching syncro swimming (Olympics). WOW. AMAZING can... it is the first TV Show that managed to grab my attention off my plate of rice. Normally, I would concentrate on my food, gobble it all up and then stare at the TV. Today my jaw dropped in awe. twice. Once when i saw the amazing routines and synchronisation of the swimmers, and once when i shifted my attention back to my plate to see that i haven't touched much of my rice.
I almost threw up just now.. while eating the orange. Too full.. At 3pm, had lunch- LJS (2 pathetic slices of fish with rice and a pseudo-sambal sauce). At 4pm, had a latte frappe from mccafe, at 645pm, had dinner (green vege, rice, fish and lots of seaweed-tofu soup) Then consumed half an orange. Before I could start on the other half, I coughed so hard that my food almost came out the eeky way.
Over-eating again...
Well seems like ive got the details of my life all here.... even to my sleeping habits. Ha. Whatever...
I'm going to Comex tomorrow with Papa. Happy :) Hope I get a good bargained thumby.
