Dear frens,
The blog has self-destructed. Even though yours truly hate people to not do what they say, I have to confessed that the blog self-destructed not within 24 hours but 48 hours. But I plead mitgating circumstances, aka *snappish wants to read. Thus, yours truly delayed the destruction for 24 hours out of *friendship (read: *snappish snapping and holding a knife at me).
As an aside, *snappish, if you still didn't manage to read the blog but still keen to, drop me a line (*no throwing of knives or any other weapons, pls!).
Your evilness,
Me.

In sheer shock
(Please note, all contents of this blog has been censored/changed to protect the identities of the individuals & more importantly, that of yours truly’s butt. If you happen to recognise anyone or worse, happen to recognise the Company or worser still, is part of *R 2005, please do yours truly & yourself a favor, forget you ever saw this blog.)
At a 1st *R meeting of XXX Company:
*Highest Ranking J: We are going to revamp the *R . (goes on to explain roles & heavy responsibilities of all the committee, led and coordinated by the Chairperson). I may be old but I’m not autocratic. Instead of having nomination like previously, we shall have volunteers. So if any one has a desire to be the Chairperson, voice out.
(looks ard. Everyone in complete silence)
I mean, everyone is so enthusiastic about forming the committee (earlier on, everyone was asked their gut feelings on joining the committee), isn’t there any one who feels in his/her heart that he/she wants to be the chairperson? It doesn’t matter if one is an assistant or a manager or a director.
I mean for instance, *sheer here is so prepared by her directors to join the club. That’s very good.
(looks ard)
(stares right at *sheer but yours truly withstood his stares and assumed that he’s doing that to everyone in the room. I mean he doesn’t know me. So why would he put the silent pressure solely on me, right? Wrong! *roll eyes at myself*)
Well, I won’t name any names because that would be biased. Although, indirectly, I suppose I am hinting? *laughter from the room*
Okay, if no one speaks, I’ll ask the outgoing committee head, *J to elect. I mean, *J here is laughing so happily, I sure he already know who he wants in mind. So if you guys have no objection. *pause for answer*.
(Everyone agrees)
Ok, *J go ahead.
(At this point, yours truly thought she was safe, after all, she is the most junior in the whole room, and she does not even know any one. How could she possbily be dragged in by any one, let alone the Chairman she doesn't know? Besides, how could anyone possibly imagine a greenbie can lead the committee, being so new to the Company and promote inter-dept bonding when she knows no one in other departments?)
*J leads forward, looks right at *sheer and said: I’m sorry, what is your name?
*Sheer looks ard in confusion before replying: You mean me? My name? (*J nods) Oh….*@@@.
*J replies: I vote *@@@ as chairperson.
*Highest Ranking J smiles: Can I ask why did you pick *@@@?
*J replies……(yours truly is egoistic, but even then, it still would not do to repeat flattery. nodding earnestly)
*Highest Ranking J: Ok. I wouldn’t vote cos it wouldn’t be fair, but does anyone second the nomination?
(Immediately, the exiting committee members present seconded the nomination. New members follow with applause)
*Highest Ranking J asks *sheer if she was willing.
pause.
Precisely, so now yours truly is saddled with the highest ranking post of the whole Committee for the welfare and benefit of the entire Company for the entire year. *grimace*. And before any one snickers, and say something like yours truly should have expected it, please allow me to tell you, yours truly is still in shock. How the heck did this happen?
It’s not as if I knew the people in the committee, since we are each “nominated” or rather, *coerced by our bosses in each departments. (yours truly tried to hint and once outright mentioned that she is not that keen and that *bubbly is more interested and enthusiastic, but guess what? Yours truly still had to attend the *R meeting, which pretty much tells you the outcome of her hints….maybe I was too subtle? *scowl*) Some of them knew each other, but yours truly is so new in the Company that I practically only know the people in my department and no one beyond the department. Moreover, it is not as if anyone in the room knows anything about my capabilities or lack thereof? So how did this happen? *in bewilderment*.
It must be a conspiracy. I tell you. *in a paranoid tone* They are really out to get me. *dryly*
Anyway, so the course is set. *deadpan*
I mentioned in reply to *snappish’s grumbles/anxiety on having to make a presentation tml that it can’t be worse than yours truly who is the newly *elected Chairperson, and have to host/organize meetings for the entire year.
*snappish predictably being one of my pals, was completely unsympathetic. She was AMUSED! D***. At times like this, dear evilness, I wished I believed in a more sympathetic being. *makes a face*
Ok. Now, just for laugh, here is a sample of my *acceptance speech, made in the way I assume Chairperson usually makes. Please just stop reading if you’re bored, since yours truly just wants to express her shock in many many words.
To the Committee following yours truly’s *nomination & what she probably meant:
Dear Colleagues,
Thank you for taking time to attend the 1st *R Meeting of 2005, and for your willingness and enthusiasm in forming the new *R . (I believe most people were at least merely nonchalant, which is not that bad a start. What is amazing is that some people, not many, mind you, were actually really enthusiastic. *whistles.) I am not certain how and why I got the heavy responsibility of the Chairperson but since I am undertaking the position, I promise to do my best. (whymewhymewhyme? How did this happen?) With everyone’s effort, support and team work, I am certain we can have a successful year for *R ahead of us. (for evilness’ sake, please do more so I can do less)
On behalf of the new committee, I would like to express our gratitude to the exiting members of 2004 *R . (even though yours truly is wondering whether it is worth her while to attempt to knock out *J, the previous chairperson….even though he did apologize nicely for “sabotaging” me. What I don’t understand is why. Maybe I should just attempt murder & plead “ in the fit of the moment”?) We would try to follow in their lead, and hopefully, we can perform as well, if not better in the year ahead.
Warmest regards,
*@@@@
Chairperson
Anyway, above is a shortened version of my acceptance speech. I know I know, too simple and maybe it should have been either more humble in the I need all your guidance air or more arrogant in the I am the best air, but yours truly is still in bemused state and this is all I could do on short notice. I think my grand announcement to the Company and the CEO is even briefer & simpler than this. *sigh*
On a positive note, *J is not too bad looking (I think *witchy would like him), my room is now nicely painted a lavender color and yours truly is going out tomorrow night. *shrug*
Still, what a surprisingly unexpected beginning to the year. Imagine the year ahead. *arched brows*.

Guilty
"IF that we thus are guilty doth appear,
Ah, guilty tho’ we are, grave judges, hear!"
~ Arthur Hugh Clough1819 - 1861
Dear *Frens,
Alright, yours truly have to plead guilty as charged. Yes, I’m an extremely infrequent blogger .Yes, I rarely blog & even then, it’s only to express yours truly bigoted opinions on a certain subject matter, and very rarely to update on my life or merely to rant.
In my defense, not that yours truly is denying her guilt here, mind you, but I actually believe that (a) no one really reads my blog regularly (b) it doesn’t matter to anyone that I blog infrequently (c) I actually believe that those who do occasionally come to my blog won’t want to read about the mundane banal parts of my life. Alas, apparently, I thought wrong.
*Wallflower who came to my place on yesterday (and bought me a nice shell necklace from Ziwiland) actually complained that I blogged so irregularly! Oh my evilness, please believe that egoistic as me, I never imagine anyone and I really mean anyone would want me to blog more regularly, even if merely to rant. Truth to tell, yours truly leads a dull and boring life. Oh fine, stop rolling your eyes. I suppose to give myself some credit, my life isn’t all that bad, but, I really won’t want to bore you to tears. But being currently in a mellow mood, aka, trying to avoid doing my homework - Dear Evilness, I know I’ve been good lately, but did you really have to punish me with so dreary a subject like Taxation? *someone anyone, HELP me* - and so, I decided to be “nice” and blog.
Maybe I should make it a point to blog more often…nah….I mean there isn’t really anything much going on in my life worth reading about, in other words, what you have just read was pure crap. And if anyone, the rare rare ones, that actually read my blog, please, blame *Wallflower if you have to undergo many tedious boring blogs. It’s all her fault.
Ok, now I’m attempting to humor *Wallflower by attempting to rant…even though I know I suck big time. *grimace* Isn’t that pathetic? I can’t even rant properly….and there I am convinced that ranting is an inborn female trait. What am I? A sheep? *deadpan*
Ok. Take a deep breath. *dun snicker!* I’m attempting to rant here.
First of all, yours truly is taking a stupid stupidly dull subject, Taxations. Hell, can you think of anything more excruciatingly painful to study? Worse, the lecturer might as well speak Greek for all I can understand during class. *sigh*. And if having to do homework which yours truly don’t understand the heads or tails off isn’t bad enough, yours truly had to meet a bitch today.
Pure Evilness did you have to do this to me?
Yours truly was damningly excited about this boutique apartment for rental, not that yours truly have any cash to rent it or any real plans to move out, but still, I wanted to go have a look at this fully furnished Soho apartment so I called on Friday & made an appointment for today. And that stupid *owner who told me to come, forgot all about it. Worse, she had the gall to blame me for not calling to confirm the appointment, and that she have so many schedules & appointment, I should have known better. @&#*@&!^ I mean, she forgot and it’s my fault? WTF?!
:::
Ok…end of pathetic attempt at ranting…if this is too sucky an attempt, shrug. At least its merely a blog & you can stop reading. That’s not so bad compared to someone who won’t stop talking…and trust me…one of my workmates is horrifying in that way. Yep. Nod head. Horrifying…its amazing how KPO she can be and how she can go on and on and on…and even though *Wallflower says it is possible to find boring people fascinating for their boredness…and wondering why they are so boring, yours truly do not believe. Some people are just boring. Period. Full stop. As *eccentric said, some guys deserves to be looked down upon, they are that boring. I know, I am quoting out of context, but that’s more or less the gist. *grin*
Right, must stop before yours truly get carried away, but I’ll attempt to write about this *amusing meeting I attended which was oh-my-evilness, conducted in pure pure Hokkien! And hopefully, a caricature of the people I will be forced to work with in the new rec club yours truly is coerced (even thought they call it nominated *blanch*) into joining, and if you don’t see anything on the club, that means it’s that bad that it’s not even worth my pathetic attempt to rant about.
Me.
