Few days ago, a friend asked if I could attend her wedding dinner also other than her Church wedding ceremony as there is still vacancy. She told me that her purpose is not for the sake of the red packet.

Previously, she asked me to her Church wedding ceremony worrying that I might burn my pocket. As there is vacancy, she asked me if I am free. Well, thanks Girl for thinking for my pocket. Don't worry so much ok! Just enjoy your big BIG day!

I am suppose to be working. I am working every Saturday and Sunday. Previously, I thought it should be ok. But then I stated to doubt if I am pushing myself too much. This is because, I simply had no rest. Had to 'chiong' especially during semester time which is quite tiring. Before exam, I had thought of what I wanted to do, yet now, I still had no mood to really do what I want especially to practice my piano.

I had made a budget plan on the estimated expenditure for my 4 years of studies. I plan more just in case and I am short of about $150 per month. For this few months, I had spend like a quarter to a third less than what I planned which is a good thing. Thus, most likely, I would not work for full 4 years. Maybe worked till end of year 2. Because of work, I had to give up certain things like the extra hours to rest, to study, to meet my friends, to stay with my family, and etc. It won't be easy for this 2 years but I had to hang on. I must also continue to spend as less as possible (on myself) so that I can quit the work and focus on my final 2 years of studies.

Well, due to work and my friend's wedding dinner is on a Saturday, I could not confirm as I had to find someone to replace me. Something pretty hard as I only know a few people. Sms a colleague (L) whom I never seen before but she had a Christmas dinner to attend. Sms another colleague (KY) and yet till now she never reply. Ask another colleague (Auntie S) whom I know yet she don't want Saturday. I really could not be so thick skinned to ask other colleagues whom I do not know. Thus, I asked another ex-colleague (J) whom I know but she could not make it. Well, as I was hoping to take a break from work, etc, I was hoping I could go for the dinner. I asked another ex-colleague (YJ) (my last attempt) and her reply was 'Should be ok' and I confirmed with her again and she said that it's alright as she does not have attachment that week. Thanks YJ!

Well, on 23rd December (Sunday), I am going for a day trip to Desaru. Thus, I won't be able to make it to work that evening. I also had been wondering what to do. Had asked a new colleague (AL) who worked on Friday and Saturday to swap with her for her Friday slot. We mutually agreed that if we are not free on Friday (for AL) and on Sunday (for me), we could swap with each other whenever possible. She said she need to check her exam timetable. Yet on Saturday, when I asked her, she could not confirm yet. According to another colleague (JW), only on 1 December then AL told JW that she could not help JW on 2 December. I do not wish that to happen to me so I asked Auntie S. Luckily she only work 2 of the Sunday of this month and they are on starting of the month and end of the month. Somemore, when my dad drove me home, my dad would also drive her back aftere I asked my dad as we stayed pretty nearby. So I guess that help when I asked if she could help me with my slot.

Thus, both days were suppose to be settled. No. I must be convicted that both days were settled. ;p Hee!
