Priss on Aug 11th, 2009The addictiveness of Facebook games

Why are Facebook games so popular? I’ve started to play Restaurant City and Mafia Wars on Facebook when I was overseas, since I didn’t had my computer with me to play any other games. I gave up on Restaurant City after a few days, but I’m continuing to play Mafia Wars, and in some ways, [...]

Priss on Jul 27th, 2008Priss Upgrading Robot…

It’s a dog eat dog world out there. Perhaps especially so in Singapore? One very important lesson I’ve learnt from working is either you command someone or someone command you, or, both ways.
And trust me, being at the end of the food chain is the worst feeling there is. Some people are born with bigger [...]

Priss on Jun 27th, 2008Feeling defeated

Someone once told me, as long as you don’t feel reluctant to go to work every morning you wake up, it’s still ok.
Every morning, my legs are soft, my shoulders sloppy, the expression on my face, jaded.
Watch The Last Comic Standing season 5 & 6, made me think, it’s not true when people tell you [...]

Priss on Jun 4th, 2008Don’t blog about your work! [Reaction to SIA blogger]

Shouldn’t it be obvious that people shouldn’t use blogs as private diaries? Once you post something in your blog, it’s for the world to see. If you really need to type your diaries instead of writing them the conventional way, then type your diaries into notepad text files and save it in your computer.
Lately, there [...]

Priss on Mar 8th, 2008How do people keep up with working life…

I’ve only been working for less than three weeks and already, I’ve been feeling the toll of dragging my feet to work every morning. How do people drag themselves to work everyday for so many years – almost all their lives!
I am a drone.
I am a slave.
I am a robot.
I do things.
I perform.
I act upon [...]

Priss on Feb 17th, 2008I got my ideal job BUT….. it’s killing me.

These are the reasons why I think I found my perfect job:

I wanted a job that requires me to talk and think
I wanted a job that did not require me to sell any product
I wanted a job that pays well
I don’t mind having to work my ass off to earn more money

I’ve only been a [...]

Priss on Feb 12th, 2008First day of work… Life is like a MMORPG game.

I don’t want to work. I want to laze around at home. I want to watch TV and play computer games whenever I feel like it.
I’m getting old and I guess I have to face reality – The Real World.
What’s this “Real World” people always talk about, I’ve heard the dangers and the politics involved… [...]

Priss on Jan 20th, 2008Work hard, hard work.

I have been bugging my dear boyfriend to work harder and earn more dough. At the same time, I want him to spend more time on me =(
Decisions, decisions. I guess when I start to work, I wouldn’t have to rely on my boyfriend’s companionship as much. I miss the time we spent in Australia… [...]
