Getting Upset

So fast. We r only a few more days to year 2006. Time for resolutions? Havent think of any….

Oh well, perhaps I can put looking out for new job as one of my new year resolutions. To look out for a job with normal working hrs, to get my life back. But that is provided I can find a job which offers me the same salary as the present one at the very least.

Am sick now. Was down with a one-day fever, cough and sore throat one week ago. My throat still hurts now and I’m still coughing. It actually felt better few days ago but somehow, it became worse from there. I think my throat prob became sore again due to the coughing. Sometimes I cough till I tear. Had finished the antibiotics. Went back to the clinic but another doc was there and he didnt prescribed antibiotics. I dont know how long it’ll take for me to completely recover but I hope soon. It’s irritating to feel the pain when I swallow anything, even my saliva. 

Was on course yest and today. I love going on course. Get to learn more things, meet colleagues from other branches and I get to be away from work!!  Definitely not in working mood nowadays becoz it’s the year end and everyone, everywhere seems to be in the festive mood.

Regarding the issue of getting married…. there seems to be hiccups.

J and I went down to HDB the other day and collected housing info. He was very much in favour of living near his parents’ house as he felt that this wld bring us great convenience becoz his parents wld be looking after our kids in future. There r empty 5 rm units opp his house now and he hopes to live there.

My parents, on the other hand, wanted us to live mid-distance between the 2 in-laws. And preferably, near the mrt. They also said 4 rm flat is more affordable. And they had another hundred and one reasons for wanting us to live not-so-near his parents. I have no wish to list every one of them here becoz simply, I get quite frustrated over the whole thing. I felt sandwiched between them and J. I felt so pressurised and stressed that day. To make it worse, I was having the cough and sore throat and had no voice at all. I felt so miserable that I cried while talking to them.

When I met up with J much later, I told him of my parents’ view and he didnt seem like he wanted to give way. He said he needed to be convinced. In the midst of talking, I cried again. So uncontrollably. He comforted me, saying I shdnt fret over these things. He said he wld speak to my parents and he wld prefer them to speak to him instead of nagging at me.

Love him so much.

Going off for dinner. Will write again (hopefully) but in case I dont, happy new year everyone!
