Musings Of The Unemployed

I'm slipping into one of those ruts where I don't bathe until I have to go out and I have no distinct clothings for sleeping and for around the house. The hair's piled on top of the head in a scrunchie and I have gone off the bra until someone requests of my presence.

Someone PLEASE give me a job.

Fucking National Service officials, they still haven't contacted me about my national service status.

The Malaysian blogosphere has been celebrating our appearences in the papers. Today would have been the day my hits sky rocket but because of this, THIS is the interview that I have turned down. I know it's not that big a deal, but maybe for now I feel like it is an opportunity I have missed out on. Perhaps in the long run I wouldn't like every Tom, Dick and Harry who buys The Star to read about how bad my period cramps are. But you know, the sight of your name in the papers and that little write up about you.....would have been nice. Perhaps when Dad is a little cooler about blogs, another opportunity would come a-knocking and I can happily accept it.

But allow me to vent a little for now.. that's the only way for me to put this behind me. Shed a little silly tears, talk to myself in the car and soon I'll forget about it. Just something temporary. At least we have
representatives out there now, that's something to celebrate!

As for now, I have resumed vegetating in front of the television indulging in chinese shows. Double chins are coming back to haunt me but I cannot go swimming because Auntie Hong is here. Auntie Hong has been less bitchy this time around thanks to evening primrose oil. It seriously works!

The dog is trying to lift my fingers away from the keyboard, failing to do so she tramples all over the LOWEFjndfp--9o234n... Sometimes she is just so annoying.

Oh look, Friends is on Starworld. *scratches butt*. Just kidding.

Have to go help mum with dinner and don't worry, I did not scratch my butt. It's just a metaphor to paint a better picture of my laziness for you.

*tee hee*
don't work la! if your parents still giving allowance, don't work. i mean, i won't. i felt bad at first (also left out) when i had holidays last time for near 6 months before i started my uni (SAM ends december, intake in june ma). felt like everyone making money but me just bumming around. after uni started - i kept wanting long breaks la!!!
*hehe* and esp after you START working, you'd never have long breaks unless you quit and take your time off or if you're on maternity leave. *hehe*

Did your dad read that part of The Star yesterday?? Hope he did, it's a good interview on blogging. Hmm...wish my son is as 'excited' as you about getting a job. He prefers sitting in front of the PC to the extra pocket money. Sigh! Btw, I am feeling better now. But still hv to go for some kind of scanning in July just to be sure.

No worries, we know you exist; we know you are hot x 100; we know you're a good girl; there will be at least one post in our blog dedicated to you... am I over-reacting?

Anyway, make the most of your free time... you'll be longing for them after being employed.

I have in on very authority that you would STILL have been in the article even after your 'dad incident', but the deadline was pushed forward, so the writer had to cut your story out... don't worry, next time lor... :)

Hi, my name is Jolene and if there is a question in your head, this answer will definitely answer it: I was wrong and irrational. I was being a woman.


Jolene Lai, Jolene Lai,
Came to life in January and not July,
She is 19 years of age,
Can't wait to earn her own wage,
This dental student is home sick,
Will never be in Kedah for more than three weeks.

Subang Jaya is where she's from,
The only place she'll ever call home.
Has a boyfriend, a brother and a dog,
The things she says can give you a shock.

Especially for her father, who always gets a heart attack when he reads this blog.

Hey, rhymes!
