What a Friday
I was wondering to myself, is today the dreadful "Friday the 13th"?Double-check on my calendar.
Nope. It's the 17th.
Why today really damn Suay? Forgive my language. I know, as a female, its seems bad to speak in that tone, spoilt my demure image. hahaha. (want to gag). Well, some of my girl friends and females language are even more "colourful". The "damn" word to them is just a baby's word.
Today, at work, encountered so many problems. Actually had arranged a photoshoot at a wine cooler showroom weeks ago. The freelancer writer had come down to our office to pass us the pictures and to confirm the shoot. But then, there came a call from one of our designers saying that for their shoot, their photographer had an accident, was "bai2 kah" and they had to used our photographer instead, as their shoot is more important. Hence the wine cooler shoot had to be canceled. Boss was at the meeting, so not time to seek her approval.
So 先斩后奏 "xian1 zhan3 hou4 zou4".
Imagine how we try to hide our fear when she ask the freelancer that why was she still at the office and not prepare to go for the shoot!
Somehow, we all think it is "heaven's will" that the shoot was cancel. Cos due to the cancellation, the freelancer got nothing to do and ask me to open up her story layout. Oh my gosh, it turn out to be a lot of pictures were wrong for the review on the household appliances. Not only some of the pictures were swopped, other pictures were missing and replaced by wrong pictures. Our boss had given that page a "final layout" weeks ago and it was presently at the reproduction house. Heng the freelance writer was around to spot the mistakes. Imagine if that page was published with all the mistakes!
The 3 of us (designer, freelance writer and I) had to settle the problem without alarming our boss. The designer was secretly re-doing that page while I had to "ja-ga" (Malay for "protect") them and notify her if our boss step out of her room. I think she was very suspicious that we did not go out for our lunch.
I'm not going to elaborate the ordeal on how we manage to re-do the layout. Once it is finish, ard 2pm, we went down to our canteen to grab a bite. I was mentioning my boss' name (on why we can't tell her) as we turned into a bend and saw her walking RIGHT TOWARDS US!!! Alamak , dunno did she heard her name being mention. U know, ppl ears really go on "radar alert mode' when their names were being mentioned.
If she heard it, me suay lor......
Well, at night, just received a sms from my colleague that she prefer that we go for our first Hip Hop lessons next Sunday instead. Sigh! Was actually looking forward to the lesson this Sun.
For those to knew me (Actually I hadn't even decide to let my close friends view this weblog yet), I'm sure yr eyes had popped out when I mentioned abt Hip hop.
Shall mention abt my sudden interest in Hip Hop in the next entry.
