At two, Shir came to our office and interview, I am quite busy today, but I tried to come out and see what she was going on.

Everyone also said that she got a good chance, because Mr. Liew likes her.

Fat bought 3 durians and some ‘mangosteen’.

Toh phoned me, talked about bonus, maybe I got half a month only, better than none at all.  She also told me about the gossipers of our office, especially that bloody Ah Chan, I hate her so much, damnit, go to hell, so ugly so get jealous about us.
