the last night been thinking abt everything.mayb i shld realli find some time to talk to kailing.abt how i shld communicate to her.i mean there mz be sth wrong with both of us.either my instructions were unclear or she realli has some super imaginative mind which makes her always assumes this n that.have to devise a plan abt how to communicate her.like how i usually will inform her of things that she need to do.think mz do like wad wensi advised.shouldnt let her cut into my words easilyor else i'll never get to bring my words across to her, smoothly, n without any ASSUMPTIONS.also, like esther said, try to bring the message across to her with a smile.think she finds my 'No' expression fierce n impatientso will give he less of that.budden, come to think of it,if i remained firm in finishing my words b4 letting her raise qns,def i can give her less of the 'No' expression,cos i believe after listening to the whole stoy b4 processing wad to ask would def reduce the no. of WRONG qns.den like dat also can make her feel less terrified of me.cos she has already finds me impatientso she doesnt feel the ease of asking me even when she's in doubtso always ASSUMES.will try to change.definitely.we're not onli gg to face each other at work, right now,we're also gg to be classmates in schn that would be another 2 yrs.after i graduate, may also be working tgt.n that will be many yrs down the road, thatwe're gg to spend our time tgt lor.hav to make sure we do not find each other unbearable.if not our friendship will not sustain for long.kailing's a v gd frenshe's funny, n v nice tempered.dats y when we talk things out, she said she understand the stress that im facing,esp when she cant learn new things fastn i hav so many stats to do.so she told me she has been bearing with me, esp when i keep giving her the 'No' look, which makes her feel afraid to ask me.if not she thinks we would quarrel everyday.after i heard that from her,iwas like... WOW.dinno i was so unbearable n she' so uncomfortable working with me.had to do sth fast.mayb on Mon, i promise.will talk things out with her, in as nice a tone as i can be.bless me.

damn sad abt workingcos gt many probs.1st of all,my colleague-cum-ntu fren, kailing, always hav communication errors with me.she always cant understand wad im saying.cos she realli cant absorb info fast enough.even she herself admit dat she cant realli learn v.fastso oknvmexplain slowly.but this time, she can process faster.once she has queries or doubts, she'll imediately ask, cutting my instructions.but u noe, some things mz listen to the whole story b4 u realli understand wad it's all abt.so, most of her qns are wrong.as in she'll say sth like "oh! izzit like dis or that?"which is of course wrong!!!so i'll give her my 'No' look.dunno whether im realli fierce or impatient or is her definition of 'fierce' & 'impatient' is super shallow.so, anyway, she finds me 'fierce' and 'impatient'wadeva.and the worst thing is......she actually push all the blame to me n told other pple that I TOLD HER TO DO THIS!then when i clarify with her, den she tell me she ASSUMES itz like dat cos once again, comm error.me: den y dun u ask me 1st?kailing: cos u seem v busy n stressme: dotx.im not the onli one who has comm errors with her lorz.
even adults like those sisters n executives talking to her she also dun quite understand them
for instance, Sis Jaro was asking her to help her key in some info using excel.
Sis Jaro said she'll email kailing the template for her to key in
then she approach me to help her check whether kailing enters the info correctly.and then!!! Kailing ASSUMES Sis Jaro is gg to email me the soft copy den im suppose to forward the mail to her for her to key in.wth.you noe how i found out that she din understand the instruction?cos after Sis Jaro left, kailing came to ask me kailing: so is Sis Jaro gg to email you the template?me: i thought she said she's going to email u (kailing) the template? my job is onli to check whether you keyed in correctly or not.kailing: oh... i ASSUME she's gonna email u the file cos she went to talk to you.me: huh? u mean you din understand wad she said to you?kailing: yes, cos she was talking too fast. cant catch her accentme: den y dun u ask her to repeat?kailing: no chance. ai yah, you noe wad to do can le.super freaking annoying.dunno y. she always give that kind of reason like e person talking super fastor she cant catch their accentor she cant find the chance to raise her qns.itz not that i do not face such probs lorz.i've talked to pple who mumbles all e way throughout the conversation n sometimes i admit i cant understand wad they're saying.BUT at least i always have the chance to get them repeat their words.dunno whether im super gd in finding chances to ask pple to repeat themselves or izzit kailing's super lousy at communicating with others.i realli dunno n dun understand her 'problem'.furthermore, her work attitude is so diff from mine lorz.when pple pass things to me, i'll always double check n everythingbut she doesntso when she kena trouble like things get lost den she panicked n asked me for help.i mean pple approached her n i dun even noe wad thing they pass to her.how to help???den ask her to stamp the "received" chop she also stamp wrongly.she stamped upside down.after that she came to confess to me.kailing: hey, sorry i made the mistakeme: don't you check which side you're stamping b4 you stamp on the doc?kailing: never. but i liquid away the wrong one n stamped the right side le. never mind 1 izzit?if you were me, wad can u say...she already made the mistake. wad can i do.i can juz sigh.even better. When she heard me sigh, she'll ask, "wad happen? you v stress ah?"haha.wad can i say???

yez went town to celebrate Irene's bdae.
feeling gd,
bt too tired.
yeah...
had rough patches at work.
been trying to teach kailing how to do her work
n how to pick up calls.
been quite frustrated with the copier machine
cos gg to spoil.
the contract ending in end of june
dats y now itz kinda sort sort.
keep jamming all the papers.
on top of that,
have to teach kailing how to handle calls n everything.
super vexing!!!
cos kailing keep taking down half of the messages onli.
n she doesnt seem to be able to understand what the other party is saying.
it happen all the time.
even when other pple were talking directly to her, she also dun catch what they meant.
haha.
comical, you would find, if you're feeling good
bt boiling you'd feel, when you have so many things to do n you still mz 'take care' of her.
however, she's slowly picking it up.
sometimes its so slow that you realli wanna strangle her
cos you jz hav to keep repeating yourself every now n then.
and then she would apologise n laugh it off when she admit that she's kinda slow in picking up new things.
i mean, she has apologise n admit her mistake
i cant possibly jz vent my frustration on her when she makes mistakes again n again.
haiz.
niwae, realli hope things gonna be better.
as for irene's bdae, we had dinner at nydc @ wheelock
den had gelare ice cream @ PS
n den home.
we gave her a box. you know, those kind of kiddy things you play when you're small
u need to put money in and then u turn it
n some toys in a round plastic ball will roll out.
super koo!!!
oh. n i bought myself a pair of new shoes
for work actualli
not those kind which i'll wear when i go out.
super yucky
bt too bad, my work needs it.
haiz.
spent quite a lot on yez's outing.
mz save save le.
