B-O-R-E-D

Siggh. This work is truly proving to be way too boring for my liking. I mean, I can't even read a book cos it'll look too idle. I have 106 transport companies to code call and ask if they want to Invest in Hong Kong. I finished calling all of them yesterday morning. And I've sent out e-mails to all of them providing further details. I can't possibly call them again now. It'll seem too pushy. So I have to wait till next week, give it time to breathe.

In the mean time, I finished sourcing for technology companies who might be potential HK investors. Now I have to call them. But there's only 40 plus of them. I can finish that in a day if I work fast and am focused. So that leaves me with practically nothing left to do!

And the worst part is, the msn here is like non-functional. So I'm missing out on precious time catching up with the rest of the world while I'm cooped up here in this sweatshop... Ok not really, since I'm not working that hard. But you know, long hours, low pay..works out to be the same.

So what I do to pass the time
1) Read everyone's blogs
2) Update my own blog with inane posts like this
3) Surf Facebook
4) Surf food websites and baking sites and collect the recipes for val to bake when she comes back
5) Search on food and restaurants and things to do in Vietnam for my holiday
6) Sneak out for lunch at 11.30 and come back at 2pm and hope no one notices.
7) Sneak into the pantry and read the papers from back to front for 45min-1hr and hope to God that when I come back it's 6pm and time to head out into the world of my freedom
8) Pretend to go to the toilet but take a walk downstairs to the convenience store and buy chocolate instead
9) Go to the toilet a lot more
10) Try and read my book under my desk and look heavily engrossed and entrenched in deep thought about technology companies and Invest HongKong. (:

Sighh... what a bore. Sheng came to meet me for lunch today. It was so fun cos I wasted so much time. We ate at the Hong Kong Cafe (one would've thought I'd had enough of Hong Kong after calling these companies day in, day out) then we walked down to mph and browsed through some books. I'm really into reading these days. It's such an excellent time passer (stimulates your mind and is portable and can be whipped out any time and passes time! what more can you ask for!) Then we went to the convenience store and got ourselves a whole tube of yakult and sat illegally outside one of the cafes and started drinking like two idiots. Then I trudged over to my office and dilly dallyed my way up.

BORING!
