Thursday: Rest- Wz has soccer practice so i normally walk the dog and hand ard in the park and then go later at nite to walk back with him
Friday Nite: Glad you are heare.
not usally a couch potato but some programmes are really good to watch.
Am taking one week leave in April. going to the Coromandel with Wz AND ZAC the intruder!!!! *sighz-fun?!?!*
Going to the Coromandel for 3 days, 2 nights and then the rest of the week.. will prob just slack at home, have a good rest, re-charge myself before i go back to work..
went over to North shore just to go to Lady Gays pet shop. the two beagles are still there. not sold yet.. Sad.... walk around and bought some stuffs.... and when we are going back to the car park, came across the baby section of Farmers and suggested that we shd get my mum to take sth back for our nephew and so we spend lots of time choosing clothes and accessories.. and i must say im pretty bad in judging the SIZE of new born babies.. the clothes that says NB or maybe 0-3 mths just look ridiculously SMALL and i just can't see how they can fit in so i got a top and a shorts that say 6 mths.. hahah... my mum says that is too big?? sianz.. bought a baby blanket as well.. will prob go and shop for more clothes etc... those baby shops are quite funny actually.... whenever we go in, we will go to the newborn/ less than 1 yr section. there we look for BOYS and it is about say 3-4 racks and the rest are basically for GIRLS!!! it is so cool shopping for girls man... lots of pretty tops, dresses, etc....
Daylight savings ends tomorrow... so shd i adjust the time now or wat? my dad has adjusted the time downstairs.. but i have this feelin that it shd be tmr night instead.. STRESS!

My bro has a gf now. her name is Mary... i suspected it when he celebrated his 21st at home and had like 20 odd of his fren here for BBQ.. and there was this lady whom he treats" special".... anyway.. it was confirm that they are together when he left photos of them on the kitchen top...

one call that made my blood rise to boiling point on thursday. it was lunch time and Aubrey was at lunch. had this call from this 50 odd year old guy. he was asking about the sureslim wellness programme that we provide finance for. so i went through the application and rah rah rah. the application was for his daughter and she is working part time and studying part time. busybody me went further and asked what income is she drawing per week and
the guy replied: $138 per week!!!
me(thinking): WTF! what a waste of my time! (telling the guy): unfortunately, ur daughter will not meet our affordability test and application will get declined AND BEFORE I CAN GO FURTHER....
ANGRY GUY: I've already told you, my daughter is living at home, no board/rent, no cr card, no HPs, no Loans. wat do u mean her income is insufficient
me: we have our standard living expenses to take off and that accounts for petrol, food, clothes, misc etc.
SUPER ANGRY GUY: whats ur name?
me: Cassandra
STILL ANGRY GUY: ur last name?
me: CHAN (even spell it out for him) C.H.A.N!!!
NOW SNORTY GUY: oh! so you are an asisan
me: (F***!!! don't u ever go that way!!!!) silence and on the verge of hanging up the phone
ANGRY GUY: How can you judge an application before even looking at it? this is not how NEW ZEALAND WORKS?!
me: (for F*** sake, don't tell me how new zealand works.... ) from experience sir, im just advising u that with that income, the application will get declined
ANGRY GUY: i know from experience but u shd'd judge. *and both of us are just basically shouting at each other*
can i speak to ur manager?
wanted to transfer him to senior lended but she is at lunch
ANGRY GUY: OH! what a coincidence
me: (cursing at this guy silently)
ANGRY GUY: can i speak ur ur manager then
and Mel was busy, so i took his damn phone and damn name down!!! and pass it on to mel for her to call him back.
hhahaha!!! fun but really RUDE and CHILDISH guy!!!
the next day, the application came in for his daughter AND a 2nd bwr!!!! see!!! if only he would bloody listen and not jump to his snobbish conclusion!
