work went crazy again.
backlog is building up day by day!
and some ppl just "nua gao sai"
真是不得恨!
while at work yesterday, i told eva: 我觉的我好像接生婆
cos emails always come with content - "can you push xxx carrier?"
conclusion: not only i'm a high class begger but also a mid wife!

today, had interesting conversations with 2 taiwanese carriers today.. below is one of them.
(translate in eng)

*TC: taiwanese carrier

TC: are you born & breed in singapore?

me: yes. why do you ask this qn? (i was thinking if he is gg to comment i sound like a mainland chinese)

TC: cos the way you talk sounds taiwanese.

me: is it ? (being modest. muahahaha). actually the way i talk to mainland chinese/ taiwanese is diff.

TC: oh... can u talk in mainland chinese accent?

me: dun wan la. my tongue rolling ain't as good as them. if you notice, i tend to have a mixture of chinese & english while talking. this is the unqiue factor of a singaporean. (trying to cover up my imperfect chinese)

TC: oic.. so do you take chinese as a subject in your sch days?

me: yes. as 2nd language. since pri sch.

TC: oh! but english as main language?

me: yep.. cos we used english to communicate with the other races.

*** change topic

TC: how many ppl are there in your dept

me: mmm.. around 13

TC: so schenker owns the whole building?

me: yep

TC: mmm.. that's very good. i had yet to see before.

me: since your bosses are coming down next wk, you might ask them to take a photo for you.

TC: oh ya.. so what kind of taiwanese tibits do you like?

me: ehh.. i'm not really into these tibits (i forgot all abt my 凤梨酥). i'm fine with anything.

TC: ok.. then we see how (got a feeling he's gg to prepare for 13 ppl)

the conversation went on.. and i forgot where we ended. we even talk abt upcoming 端午节。and blur me still thot it will be 2 wks later.

anyway, its time for bak zhang!
