The 16th day of Chinese New Year

After 8 hours of restless sleep, wake to the voices in your head listing off possible diseases I could claim to have caught while sleeping, all of which would prevent me from my optic mouse at work! Decide that it would sound peculiar to call in Crazy to work and proceed to the toilet where I relieve myself of the two gallons of water I pounded the night before in hopes of drowning the Chap Goh May alcoholic tiger beer. While still dressed in the shirt and pants I wore yesterday but were too tired to take off before I passed out. Exercise my right not to shower, as practicing basic hygiene only makes lives easier. I will look presentable when I want to look presentable, and today just isn’t one of those days. Today is, however, the day my company’s HQ people from Singapore will be here to setup demo for tomorrow.

Arrive an hour late to work singing “Smack My Bitch Up,” because that’s what I was listening to at full volume the entire journey, over and over again. Look straight at my boss as I pass his desk. Ignore some insane string of email that comes in every morning. Instant message are really cool that you should have installed in your computer.

Take a two-hour lunch: one hour for the nasi goreng kampong, 30 min for smoking session (yeap i did not managed to quit) and other 30 mins for a nap on my table. For the rest of the afternoon conduct seemingly academic experiments with bandwidth by seeing how many simultaneous downloads of “My Boo” my CPU can handle. End my experiments when the company’s network administrator spontaneously explodes. After successfully avoiding any work related to your actual job, sneak out for another stick of nicotine and tar.

7:00pm off from work, JAM!!! on LDP I need a sirent so I roll down the windows and scream louder than the roar of your engine. Continue screaming the whole way home taking breaths only at red lights. I should be sufficiently hyperventilating by the time I pass Kelana Jaya. Home at last and I shut the car off and bang my forehead on the steering wheel. Aiming for the horn. What a day!!! life is tough.

That's my day on the 16th day of Chinese New Year
