Wednesday - Sick - Unsympathetic - Saw a thief -

Well, today is really a day of many events...

I woke up feeling horrible, warm and cold... then probably blew away a whole month's worth of stuff from my nose.. ahh..

Then went to work, happened that the person in front of me took the last seat, so i had to stand all the way to work...

Work was routine, i had enough help today so it was alright, but i decided to report sick myself somewhere at 11+, after i got this headache and felt very cold at the same time. I took some tablets earlier but it didn't seem to help my leaking nose.. so I got a MC today for the first time, but from the unkindly looks i received from some people, you'll think i get a MC every other day or something...

Do i really have to endure this? Then it dawned on me that me being sick is my problem, not theirs... i'm not going to care what they think of me anymore.. But whoa, if this is the way the working life is out there... i shudder to think of life in the future..

Thanks to those who cared though..~

I took a cab back with naresh and yanxun, the latter alighted with me at Jurongpoint. Just
a few steps later, we saw some guy in office attire chasing a bangra worker. He kept shouting, Stop! Don't run! While he was chasing him. They were running pretty slowly too, then yanxun commented that the guy chasing was wearing leather shoes.. that's why.

Hmm, they chased til they were infront of me, then i saw the bangla walk back, managed to confuse the guy. Some middle aged guy approached him, but he pushed him away and started to run again.

How to say this? We had 2 chances to stop him, but my reflexes weren't working.. like what yx says, it could be a gang fight or something... we did follow him until JP where we saw him run off into the horizon...

Only later did we realise he stole the guy's wallet and hp...

Was this the 'once in a lifetime' opportunity that people talks about? And i just let it slip by?
I sure hope not, cause i wasn't really thinking at that time =_=

I do hope that the guy was caught, though it seems rather unlikely... even now, i'm still feeling woozy after sleeping for 5 hours. Beh. Lets hope i'm fit enough to do my duty tomorrow...

Took the train back, and saw quite alot of pple in yelllow and red shirts, i do believe they're from SAJC. Doing what i have no idea... And i happened to see Peiqi too. She looks very different from the last time i saw her, which was probably a few months ago... she looks even younger now... if there's a phrase called 'reverse aging', she would be the first example i've seen of it..~

On a sidenote..

I need to find a place to call my own, a place with no unkind words, no disapproving stares, and a place where i can be happy...
