Of baju and pants

Raya come and go, and now I am back in the rat race. What am I racing for?


Time.


There's so much things to do and so little time.


Accounts closing - checked
Database updates - checked
Investment portfolio report - checked
Cheques to be issued - checked
Budget analysis - pending for Mr. Tilam's info (arrgghh)
Related Party Transaction Report - pending (Just received the task as at 5.30 p.m. today)


On top of all that, I suddenly became Beast's secretary now. Yesterday I was her despatch boy. Today, I had to photocopy stuffs for her, did the rsvp for her, organised for someone to shred all her used papers and the worse task of all - picking up her calls. *sigh*

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind doing it if she were to ask me in a right manner. Hello, I am not paid to be her secretary in the 1st place. I have my own set of work to complete. Plus, if those people that kept calling her were more pleasant, I wouldn't have left my phone off the hook everytime Beast's phone rang (hehehe...). And I don't get the fact that the phone will only start to ring when Beast leaves her room.. uurrgghh..

Well, I only have 3 more days to go. How am I going to complete those tasks in time, I don't know. All I know is that I won't be able to complete it tomorrow for Beast had another agenda planned out for me.


At 6.30 pm

Beast: Eh Binx ah...
Binx: Yes Beast..
Beast: Make sure you dress up tomorrow you know..
Binx: Huh? How come?
Beast: There's a signing ceremony at the hotel next door..
Beast: So you better make sure you wear your nice baju and not your pants...
Binx: Oooh.. Ooook..
Beast: Make sure you look nice. Just in case they need your service...
Binx: Rite.. *giggle*


Ok.. Before any of you draw your own conclusion, let me explain what she meant. No, she did not mean to ask me to go half naked to the ceremony. Most chinese would call a 'baju kurung' as 'baju'. Hence, what she meant was for me to come in a nice baju kurung tomorrow and look pleasant in order to help out with the ceremony. I don't know what my task is going to be. Maybe the usual usherer-do or maybe the girl with the roller..

Another half-day down the drain. I just pray that I will not get called by anyone during my study leave. That would be a total distraction on my part.


Wish me luck for tomorrow yeah...





binx: hmm.. which baju shall I wear?
