| Been long since I last updated the blog. Nothing much to say except that I'm still exhausted and suffering from fatigue. Period. |

| Start Working!!!! |
Things to do:
- Major Essay on Consumer Behavior
- Filming script for prison officer
- Digitise Ep 2 footages
- Editing Ep 2 OFFLINE (nampaknya kena torn kat office lagi ni....)
- Group Assignment & presentation on Friday, 26 March
I'm a major mess right now. Will have to start with my major essay soon. At least 500 words by today and another 1500 words by Tuesday. Gonna tell Fadly that I'm not coming to office on Tuesday coz I'II have to finish up my assigment.
Gonna make myself a cuppa. The OWL is starting to feel sleepy now.
What a day! The conversation that I had with Hakim still lingered in my mind. I went to Imam Baragh with him today. Saiful was supposed to join us but he had high fever in the morning and that eventually lead me to going to Imam Baragh with Hakim. Just the 2 of us.... Kwa...Kwa....Kwa!!!
I like his vision and his aspirations. Yes I do and I was so proud of him when he spoke up during the meeting. Yes Hakim I truly believe in you. What you said... they were all true. Sometimes others shyed away from us because we dont make them feel welcomed and wanted and this is where we have to improve. Thank you for the thought provoking comments.
Apart from that, I almost dozed off at some points of the meeting. My mind was blank. This is what happened when you only get 1 hour of sleep. |

| Running out of ideas.... heheehhehe |
I'm writing my filming script for tomorrow's filming and suddenly I got writer's block.... so what the heck, I'd better do something worthwhile while trying to get some story writing ideas.
Healthwise, my cough and flu has ceased. I did not go to the doctor for the third time because I'm really broke. Instead, I rely very much on my trusted Peppermint's Cough Syrup. Hehhehheh and it certainly helps. Now I only cough occasionally but I still have my sore throat. I was using my brother's mini torchlight to take a peek at my throat earlier today and it was so RED! Must drink lots of water and take honey.
Naddy's got sore throat too and she's also suffering from headaches. Poor Naddy! It's the unpredictable weather that's making people sick. Even Fini and Kak Mah are starting to show signs of flu.
By the way, I got my bills today. It was disheartening to look at my bills when I'm so BROKE! I have not got my pay. Maybe I will get it by end of next week. The earlier the TV station approve my program, the sooner I'II get my cheque...
I went to the school library today and had a discussion with Isher and Anu. At least we've started the ball rolling with our first meeting and at least we can update Anita and tell her that we did quite a bit of brainstorming while she was away! Heheheheh!!
Khoon was excited when I told him about the AP job. I can hear it from his voice. But I was speechless to receive an sms that says, "We will KIV your friend for other programs. Thank you." Gosh! How am I going to explain to Khoon that the job is taken in a matter of seconds or rather that THEY were not employing anyone. The current AP is just filling in for the AP who turned down the job offer last minute. I was looking forward to work with Khoon. I can tell that he's good - resourceful, dedicated, creative. I'II just have to tell him the company will KIV him for the financial program. Sigh! |

| When will my cough be cured??? |
Still coughing.... This is so frustrating. I've spent $56 going to the doctor TWICE and I'm still coughing. In fact now my throat hurts. My mum has been pestering me to go to Dr Yong. Hhmm.... let me see. Maybe I'II give Dr Lai a call and see what she says. I'II just have to tell her that I've finished with all the medication that she prescribed but I'm Still Coughing!!! Reminds me of Jules when she had her cough. She was coughing for weeks in the office.... better ask her tomorrow how her cough stopped.
Did nothing today which is really great since I've been working non-stop the past week. After this, I'II have to go through my notes and prepare for my individual and group project. Frankly, I have no idea what Rodney Goon's talking about during lecture last Friday!!! Hheheheheh!!! Was too tired to concentrate I guess.
Tomorrow the new AP is coming and both Fini and I will have to brief her on the program. I'm still waiting for my boss to reply if the Yishun Dam story is okay. I have to film it by this Friday!!! Still need to check if Suhaiman Joseph is free.... Kwa kwa kwa.... Suhaiman Joseph? Whatever! Once story is approved, I'II have to do the filming script, get it approved etc. Wow suddenly like there's so many things that needs to be done.
I also have to go to SIM library tomorrow and check for the 10 academic references. Aiyoh!!! Rodney Goon! Why you need 10 academic references? Kiasu lah you!
It's okay. Relax. Don't panic. This is just a phase. Rodney's module will be over by end April. But till then, just have to endure the frustration and agony.... |

| Well.... still coughing... |
I don't believe this. I'm still coughing. Yes I've been sick for so long. Since after Asyurah which was around March 2nd I think and today is March 13th. Now how long ago was that? I even went to the doctor TWICE.
I went to the doctor again yesterday telling her that I'm still coughing and having flu. She gave me a different medication for my cough. It's not a cough mixture. It's a white tiny pill to help cure my cough. Dr Lai also gave me steroids. Yup steroids. So I'm on steroids now. But while my flu has somehow ceased, I'm still coughing. Even NOW. Coughing and coughing away. My throat feels very itchy and dry.
Maybe all I need to do now is to rest. I haven't been getting enough sleep lately. Only managed to sleep around 2 hours because I'm busy editing the current program that I'm producing. Gosh! It's really tiring. Imagine sleeping in the office for 3 nights! But once everything's been layed nicely and you see the program before you, you just feel satisfied. It's all worth the hard work. Oh well....
I'm going to sleep soon.

| The Cough's Getting Worse |
Yeah the cough's getting worse by the minute. I'm still coughing as I'm typing right now. This is NOT good and I've also lost my voice! Yes people I've LOST my voice. Farah had to come to the meeting earlier today since I cannot talk much and even if I did, no one can hear and understand me! And even Tony was
surprised to know that I've lost my voice since I've talked to him over the phone just the day before.
I have to go to the doctor later today. Yes it's time to pay Dr Quek Hwee Choo a visit. She's my family doctor in Bukit Batok St.21 and the one who's been treating me since young. I still refuse to go to any other doctor besides Dr Quek coz I've grown comfortable with her. My mum's been pestering me to go to the doctor in Taman Jurong but I'm still adamant and refused to surrender to my mum's pestering. Wow. Didn't realise how stubborn I can be at times. Hheheheeh. Maybe I should also cancel the meeting wih the PAU company. Farah's arranged for a recce cum meeting session with a PAU making factory as part of my research for the program that I'm doing right now. If the cough doesn't stop by noon, I'II have to cancel the trip.
I went to the granite factory today. Gosh Tony was just so sweet! So forthcoming to be featured and I'm going to feature them in the pilot episode. I'II have to post him an email and tell him exactly what I'II need for the filming.
Things to do on March 5th:
1. Go see Dr Quek
2. Call Yassin (antique shop)
3. Meeting with pau making company
4. School at night
5. Type out Minutes of meeting
6. REST |

| I'm so sick... |
My body feels hot, my throat feels dry and I've been coughing. I cannot afford to get sick when there's loads of things that needs to be done. And the best thing is that I've NOT been to the doctor. Supposed to go visit the doctor today but was too busy with meetings etc. So I'II go to the doctor tomorrow.
Going to a granite top making factory in Sungai Kadut later today at 10. This is part of my recce for 647. This program certainly brings me places. Sungai Kadut? Where is that? Just hope and pray I won't get lost. Farah has warned me that I might get lost since I'm not familiar with the area just like today when I got lost on my way to the prison HQ in Upper Changi Road North. eheheheh.... it was quite amusing coz it was drizzling and I got lost and I was surrounded by prisons and drug rehab centres. Can be quite traumatising for a girl. And I had to walk further up from where I was to the prison HQ and there was this officer in police uniform who was across the road looking at me. Perhaps he's wondering to himself.... where is this small girl off to all by herself? Oh by the way, most pple who don't know me always assume that I'm still a teenager, under 20 years old.... which can be a disadvantage at work coz pple will start questioning... hhmm.... can this small girl produce a program? Looks inexperienced. Oh what the heck!
Oh no I'm so sleepy now. But I can't sleep yet coz I still have my filming script to complete. I'II make myself a cuppa later... COFFEE here I come....

| Aaaarrgghhhhh!!!! |
Oh no! The meeting we had was like a wake up call for me. A reality check. Suddenly I realised that my offline has to be submitted on March 8th since telecast date for my program is on April 8th! Aaaarrggghhhh!!!!
And the best thing is that I'm still waiting for clearance from companies, establishments etc. Oh dear! And I need to get a TEMPAT later today and today is also Asyurah.
It's okay. Do not panic.
PLAN A: Surf the internet and look for potential stories. Email contacts to Farah.
PLAN B: Eerr... ask those whom I'm meeting later today for any lobangs on interesting TEMPAT.
PLAN C: Eerrr... go round Singapore looking for interesting TEMPAT. Don't ask me go where. I'II just go where the feet brings.
Hhmm.... looks like I have a sound plan here. Don't know what time I'II be sleeping but I have to get this done ASAP. If only we were NOT TURNED down by most organisations, this segment would have been a piece of cake! But then again.... what's the point in complaining and sighing. I'II just have to hold on to my mobile later today so that Farah will have easy access to me. Farah called me during one of the majlises to update me on the presenters. She must be kanchong herself coz she didn't seem the least bothered by my background noise. At that time, Ustaz was juat about to start his sermon and usually when peers, colleagues called when I'm at any majlises, the first thing they'll ask is... "Where are you? Why so noisy? What's that noise?"
I'm sure I'II have to work over the weekends. Will have to update Feeza if I can't make it for Sunday's majlis so that at least she knows what to do...
Gotta start cracking dude! |
