Supergirlfriend just met up with a girl friend the other day.
And of course, being girls...we would proceed to chat about anything under the sky...
AND THEN, this topic came up.
She told me that she is sooooo contented working as a clerical staff and she even looked genuinely happy when talking abt it!
My jaw dropped. (no offence to all other clerks in the world)
What? I looked at her in disbelief. She'd probably didn't notice my expression as she carried on with her yadda yadda yadda about how near her work place is to her house, how convenient it was for her, how easy was her job and etc.
She's a degree holder. Yeah, no big deal these days. But it sure tells something! I mean..you spent nearly 20 years of your life studying to be a clerk? What the fcuk! Clerks became clerks because they lack qualification, and even they want to UPGRADE themselves. Not downgrade!
Haven't you got a dream? An aspiration? A desire to have a better life? Anything at all???
I guess that's not the case for her. At least she's somehow happy.
I feel sick. Maybe some girls are just waiting for a rich and handsome prince charming to sweep them off their feet, or maybe they just want a simple life. Count me out!

I am sooo HAPPY working as a CLERK!
You call yourself a MAN ah?
Supergirlfriend has gotta note this down.
The day the Boss wept...
Halfway through his speech during a party he threw for the company, he started muttering words instead of saying them loud.
A few more words later, his face changed quite notably and obviously.
Then a few more incomprehensible mutterings later, his facial expression indicates an
effort to control this thing quite taboo and sensitive to some of those MACHO men out there.
This thing called tears.
WOW. I must admit that I was quite stunned and impressed at the same time that the stone-faced man could actually weep! That moment, the Boss appeared like a real man for once.
And for me, a real man weeps. Don't throw your machoism or male chauvinism at me for I will whack them all back to you. Don't tell me you weep blood...or real men don't cry..
It only makes us all more human.

WARNING : This is a BORING post
Remember I mentioned I used to be a writer (still IS occasionally!) and an editor? (see related post)
THIS is what happens when a writer gets a writer's block. Supergirlfriend simply doesn't know what to write in the blog when this happens. So, when she can't think of anything to bitch about or to brag about because she simply did not have enough sleep last night and it has jeopardized her mind's ability to function as it should be, THIS is what she writes about.
She writes about not being able to write about anything! And yet, since you're reading this post now, it also means that she has successfully translated her wandering blank thoughts into a complete post! Amazing how the brain of a mentally blocked writer works. :p
And you've just wasted a few seconds of your life reading a mindless post!
Kill me.
Haha. :p
Note : Chill out... To anyone who's reading this, it's all in the name of innocent FUN! Take a break! :p

OMG! She really tripped!
OMG..
This is like the best thing that ever happened to me today.
She tripped! Hahahahahaah.. I just knew this day would come! (check out related post)
I didn't mean it, you know? I really wasn't waiting for the day you trip! (I was praying for it!)Didn't thought you'd really TRIP!!
Ahahaha.....! The look on her face the moment I turned and so fortunately saw her missed a step and landed on her booty? OH. Priceless.
That must hurt. Wear high heels some more lah. Hehe. Too bad only a few people saw your most embarrassing moment. *hai-yah, wasted!*
But still...
You made my day, girl.
I'm so bad. :p

Don't go SHOPPING during SALES!!!
Strange but true...
for Supergirlfriend, that is.
I dunno why I but I never quite liked shopping during sales. WHY?
1) There's just soooo many people shopping with you and things can easily turn ugly. Just like the one time I saw at the Isetan SALE. *gulp*
I dunno what happened to those people but they looked like they come from war-torn countries in desperate need for food and water. They all looked so hungry! Hungry for clothes and accessories and bags and shoes....! I was freaked. Makes me wonder whether they are possessed or something. It's scary how ugly Malaysians can become.
2) During sales, most shops take out their old stocks in order to get rid of them
So don't expect to see much of the usual displays or latest arrivals during sales because they are much likely to be hidden away. The sales is absolutely the best time for them to clear the old stocks and the really really old stocks, which I don't quite fancy because of its conditions.
But on certain occasions, I actually managed to grab some really good bargains. OH WAIT. Shoot. That was the Great Singapore Sale. :p
