i'm tired of writing...

bleahhh....
in the words of ming.... SHOW ME DA MONEY....
ok.. it was fun... initially... kinda fancy to begin with...
but there's always such as thing as OVERKILL...

i've written about 8 write ups...
and since they are mostly paid editorials (ie advertisements disguising as articles...)
you can only imagine the amount of mediocre stuff waiting to be embellished...
bleaah.....

only one week into the job.. and i've enough stories to tell for a long long time...

take this for example..
interior designers dont speak english... ok not well.. ok maybe only some of them speak badly...
i had to call DESTON.. just so that he could refer me to PAUL... who took a good 10mins to refer me to ELLIE.... and then directed my inquiries to DESTON.... what the.....????????!!!!!!!!

*faint*

i am having phobia of calling them up...

this other firm paid for an ADVERTORIAL... but i still had to churn out 1500 words... and the best thing is... i have to put in the name of the suppliers and waht nots along the way...
so as he was taking me on a walk thru over the phone..

guy01:.. ah yar.. and the parquet floor... you must say the supplier name.... chip and booty

me: huh? chips and vouz de?? (thinking that its some fancy name....

guy01: yar yar.... ah... then the sliding door.. is special one.....

me: eeeerrr.... wait.. can u spell cheeefs and beau des please...

guy01: oh.... CHEAP... as in not expensive one... and BEAUTY.... like beautiful.......

me: oh... CHEAP & BEAUTY!

yes.. so tehre.. what a job... never thought i'd coin the three words CHEAP AND BEAUTY in one sentence....
i am thinking of a psuedonym....

bleahha....
