Why everyone bullys me?

Why does it seems that everyone wans to bully me?

In school:

during projects, i do work, others copied mine to submit...

Do FYP, delegate work but no output in the end, i ended up doing most of the things

At Home:

I became sick on saturday, fever, whole body was lethargic still being asked to cycle to Post Office to get Phone book (while my brothers slept/play computer games)


Whenever something breaks down, i gotta repair it(the others don't care) and if I don't i will b scolded as being selfish and dun wan to contribute to family

Anything tat comes to contributing $$, i gotta contribute, if i dun i will b scolded again



how comes it's seems like when i am kind-hearted to help, people take me for granted.. after a while, they get used to the help and when i dun rendered any help I m bad...why is it so hard to please everyone?

i've decided to go on a hol in dec, boss please dun stop me...
The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems,
but those who learn to live with things that are less than perfect.

Big house, small house; Good Loc,Bad Loc

HDB started balloting it's unsold flats at Tanglin Halt recently, dd and i also went to join in the crowd... price of flat is abt $260k-$320k for the 4rm flats... abit steep if u ask me... it's even more expensive than a exec flat in JW...

comparison between blk 628-630 JW n 4rm queenstown:

JW Queenstown

size: 130 sq m 85-90 sq m

Price: $260k-270k $264k-320k

Amentities: many, but quite far west established
not easily assessible assessible
far away frm town near town


so the debate is to live in establish estate n pay more $$ nearer to many amentities or live futher away frm town , more comfortably? difficult choice ...

However my view is this is not the crux of the prob... to b honest, i m very keen to get a hse... but i m not sure abt dd.. i really dunno her level of commitment...cos a house is a SUPER BIG commitment, I really cannot do it by myself... and here i DON'T mean CPF monies... i mean REAL HARD CASH.... cos if we are gg to have a house of cos we wan to move in ASAP right? cannot leave it lying there collect dust, like a white elephant... that's not right isn't it? renovations, furniture, electrical applicances blah blah blah cannot b paid off by CPF... what about the monthly utilities bill, the groceries bills? all these must be taken into consideration...cannot expect me to pay for EVERYTHING bah right? how long is that gg to take me? 5yrs at least...my most optimistic estimation...
But everytime i touch on this topic, she becomes defensive n unhappy, i m not asking for much lor not even 1/2 the amt i trying to save a mth...mabbe 20% would b ok even...


I blive a home is for 2 person so both must contribute to take ownership (NOT CPF!!!)... i don't mind paying majority, but not ALL... tat's a bit too far fetched...

Although dd keep saying wan to buy hse but seriously i dun see much action frm her... except for her new hobby: wakeboarding... which is another quite expensive sport... now she wants to learn diving... requirements nv end... She says i m not into that type of sports, but one thing i dunno she understands or not tat is I can go wakeboard, surf board watever board, dive etc... if i wan but wat does tat all end up to? NO HOUSE, NO BANQUET,NO HONEYMOON,NOTHING... cos why? all $$ dumped into these costly sports...

Now i am not saying cannot do all these sports, it's good actually but just in moderation and understand that if u really wan a hse, u hav to b commited n stay commited,...sometimes need to adjust our lifestyle n habits n make some scarifices...
To maintain a house and a family requires commitment from both parties... not just one...

Until both of us are commited n focus only then can we work it out...

I m already commited in pursing these goals, already dreamt of shopping for sofas, beds etc... and buying a dry cabinet to put our photography stuffs in liao... but until dd figure out wat she really wants now and sets her prority right, all these can only b dreams....

Nicks'

Rather worried on saturday when dd nv contact me cos she was suppose to b back on friday evening... usually she will contact me when she come back from overseas...send me SMS like "dd i back liao" or something like tat... mabbe she was too tired to send ... but i think i did sms her on friday evening but she nv replied tat's why i bcame worried anyway she replied on saturday... but she was busy enjoying her wakeboarding session that she 4got her dd... haiz... sometimes I think our gender should swap...she should b a guy n I a gal... looks like our personalities are like tat...

I am still suffering from the meat overdose from this morning Bak Kut Teh...(dd should noe) ... wah so full, so guilty...

Been thinking of our new nick for quite some time.. seems tat I made a mistake in the whole construction...
Some explanation:
"Monkdees" is the name i tot up.. it's actually the merger of "monkey", which both of us belong and "Dees", cos we call dds mah.. "dd" = "deardear"
However monkeys are pronounced "Mon" + "Keys" and not "monk" + "eys" .. so the correct word for "monkdees" should be "mondees" so which one sounds nicer? the orginal one? or the new one w/o the "K"? think they should have the same pronounciation...

Updates

Getting busier by the day... looks like can't much time to blog real soon...Here are some updates

Went to the Singapore zoo on sunday wif dd... well paid for the tickets ourselves ..who needs the zoo pass ... :P
Have quite a lot of fun there and took a lot of pictures, basically it's more of a photography trip... hehe almost forgot abt the time... haha Picture wise some don't turn out that good lah...mainly because of poor photographers ... hehe (still "L" photographers leh) + the strong afternoon sunlight... woo nvm will improve next time... many are not bad though... haha

The whole week dd not around cos she left for Bintan... Kinda missed her though... really hope for the next sunday to come faster then can see her again and cuddle her again (kinda mushy hor).....
Then boss started "pressurising" us abt the "project" he gave to us... Well kinda unfair to us cos we are still undergoing the training program and can't spare much time during office hours to do that project... anyhow only 3 out of abt 15 of us doing the project... cos only those new guys from IS department doing and I m one of them... I think boss's intention is to see us work OT... lotsa OTs cos most ppl in my dept are doing that... rushing projects, no choice haha..for us we always leave at 530pm sharp... well i think soon we will have to work late liao ... but then i will try not work work late on tues,thurs and sunday... cos tues ,thurs i go running... sunday gotta accompany dd... going back on sunday is a strict no-no for me.. haha
Well kinda tough going now.. cos the software is a entire new thing for me... and there's no 1 free to teach us... it's not help by the fact that our equipment are either "borrowed" from us or just missing... Haiz i think boss have a big expectation of us..but guess we gotta disappoint him liao sorry boss...

last but not least, there are 2 new addition to my family haha... my bro brought back 2 rabbits according to him,his fren's rabbits gave birth too many so give my bro 2...so cute... hope they dun stink ... my bro say they are the minature species...


The new addition to my family...

SOS!!! MY PC is DYING!

The title of this blog have also been the message on my MSN for quite some time liao...
My PC keeps hanging... dunno whether it's a windows problem or the whole system or just the graphics card problem...

it will hang itself after a while, and when i tried to restart it it just wun budge... then i had to switch off the power and on it again and hopefully it will startup... I get the error say a "drawing operation failed to complete" tat's wat causing the "hang"

so is my graphics card causing problems? or my old computer is dying? keep hanging so annoying... grrh... and it had to happen at a time like this when I have no $$... sobsob

just now nearly wan to buy a 2nd hand graphics card...inno3d GForce 5500 256MB for $50 but then what happens if it's not the graphics card that is causing the prob? it's the MB or windows? then i will end up wif 2 graphics card... how how?

wat should I do? buy new system? change graphics card?

Computer, pls dun die...
