bla bla bla........

I dragged myself to work today, because i knew a big issue was waiting for me to solve. And no, my problem is not solved yet, but at least there s some progress. I jus checked my work mail and found out tat this Ang Moh is still unable to understand wat i want. I wudnt wanna call him as i believe we might have even greater difficulties understanding each other.

My colleague and I were engaging in the same conference call today. He commented that I could speak both mandarin and english pretty well. Seriously, I dun think so. I used to speak more fluent english back in my sec sch days, but i got 'corrupted' somehow in TJC. . army made it worse, and NUS didnt make it better. My chinese speaking sux as usual...

Even in emails, I thought i have written very clear and simple english for ppl to understand. Sad to say, i often get misunderstood replies. Its either ppl are too busy to read my email carefully enough to digest them, or they cant be bothered, act blur or worst case - there s problem in my written english.

Whilst my work issue was not solved yet, i was thrown with another big news - my dad has been warded to the hosp, due to an emergency need to remove some stones in his kidneys. The hosp $$$$ is scary.. and most insurance policy doesn cover hosp bills. So when u buy insurance, pls understand that the difference betw life plan, critical illness, disabilities AND HOSPTILAZATION coverage (which most ppl neglected).
