Cookies

Gah. I know. I know. I have NOT been updating. It is the one constant thing I have in my life right now. Un-up-to-date blogs. A few weeks ago, I was unable to log into a variety of webpages, such as youtube and, yes, blogger, because, apparently, my brother for one reason or the other changed a setting cookies. Now that my knowledge of computer technology has been sufficiently been given an update(and my brother severely..er..disciplined), life goes on as normal.



Or what passes as normal for me.



I have been reassigned in my unit to a the Admin IC. The previous one got kicked out after a series of blunders(not totally his fault) and he recommended me for the position to my captain(albet a case of me not being able to do worse than other candidates). So now my previously, rather interesting, job of going all over Singapore rounding up AWOLees has shifted to boring clerical duties. My Captain is fierce and strict, my Leftenant is easily frazzled, my assistant is a little...too helpful? Not to mention juniors who need proper mentoring and guidance. I wonder what they feel when their mentor and guide(me) gets openly f*cked by my Captain? Which seems to be happening quite a lot nowadays? Hmmm...


And it was only just now that I realised that I am likely to be stuck at the desk for more than a year(unless my time in NS gets prematurely terminated due to reasons I don't want to imagine). Of course, if my Captain deems my work unsatisfactory for the next few days, I'll probably get sacked. Hmmm...... an idea comes to mind......


Nah. An Admin IC does have its perks. I no longer have to bother with roll calls. I get to read when there is no work to do. I get to build something closely resembling a friendly relationship with my superiors(always a good thing). And I have several juniors at my beck and call, with no choice but to run errands for me like cleaning the office and buying food from the canteen for me, through no reason other by me being of a higher rank. Yay! And reliable air-conditioning for the whole day!!!!


Oh, and I sang at the International Acappella Concert(Jazz Night) at The Arts House on the eighteenth of this month. It was terrible. Thank God Key Elements was there to basically save the whole night!!



But I'll get paid anyway. Bwahaha!!


My back is aching now. I don't know why. Maybe I sit in the office too long.




Will start exercising as soon as I feel like it. Which is hopefully sometime before this year ends.
