So my new job started out quite horribly, but it's slowly getting better. Still, I can't complain because it's better than it being the other way round. I just have to be really alert and humble and make sure that I don't screw up.
Went with Jayine and Redz earlier to Skin at red dot traffic, which was a great loungey-type place that serves the best Shirley Temples that I have ever tasted. Elnie, you got to try this! The music was a bit too loud, but then I'm half-deaf anyway, so the difference is minimal. It's pretty funny because we ordered some bar food, and it took quite some time before the food arrived. The thing is, Redz and Jayine saw them 'tar-pau' the food (most likely from the nearby Maxwell Food Center) so it was pretty weird paying $12 for fries from a Western stall. Still, the ambience was excellent.
Like I was telling them earlier, I have decided that 2008 is my fuck-it year. I am just not going to care anymore. I'm not going to actively chase or pursue anything, because 2007 was all about active pursuing and chasing and wanting and hoping, and in the end, feeling let down and fucked up and used and stupid for ever thinking that anything would change. So my philosophy for 2008 is "Fuck it!" Say it with me again, kids!
I know I sound bitter, and I might be, but like I said, I'm just past the point of caring. I'm not going to entertain shallow friendships with people I don't care about. I'm not going to worry about all the TV shows and movies and books and bands that I might be missing out on. And this year *might* just be the year I start trying to forgive and forget past grudges - from those idiots in secondary school who made my life miserable to former colleagues who make Hitler look like Barney to myself - I just have got to let go of all that crap and stop lugging it about with me. Because it's getting old and no one cares, not even me anymore.
Hope my 2008 philosophy still stays the same after 2 months - okay lah, 2 hours, maybe?
