My whole life, I have dreamt of backpacking the world. There's a lot I want to see, feel, smell,taste, hear from all corners of the world.
Some shit brewing in my pot...
I was reading the budget statement on Channel News Asia. If I was still schooling, my immediate remark would be "Wow! $300 again!!" and be happy like freak over it. hahaha... after all which government in the world gives money to its citizen every year one.
But this year, it's slightly different. There's only 1 fundamental statement behind it all. The rich is only going to get richer and the poor would only get poorer. Poorer not meaning that they are earning less. Poorer in the quality of life. The pay jump for people in the higher income bracket is between 20% to 50%. Wah seh... don't who are those market spoilers who has got 50%.. basket.. I thought my pay jump was quite decent liao.. haha..
Anyway, there was a strong emphasis in increase in inflation, all thanks to oil prices....hahaha... =P Frankly, I am really thankful that oil prices are so high now. When oil prices are high, there would be a lot of drilling activities, which means I get a job. It's a very selfish thought as there are a lot of people suffering out there because of the high oil prices.
On other matters, I was really quite upset yesterday...
There was a big hoo-ha amongst my colleagues and the management lately. Statements made in a matter of jokes were TOTALLY blown out of proportion. If you don't want to be part of the joke, then keep yourself out of it. Frankly, I am quite demoralised about how things turned out yesterday. It left me with a bitter taste...Why must people always think the worst of other people and start making statements that hurt? If I have enough sense to be objective, why can't others be just as objective as well?
It's good being offshore. Politics are usually kept aside and the people don't usually try to stir shit... probably it's because it is a male thing. Females just talk too much sometimes... I am not blasting my own kind but I have to admit that this is a very true fact. I am female myself and I know very well how shitty this can get. Like what Paul said before... If you 1 or 2 girls on the rig, it's okie. 3 maybe still alright. But 4.. that's it.... all hell breaks loose... hahaahha...
