There was actually nothing happen in the morning @ office today. I try to finish the "EDI " report for one of the boss in another section. Today is grace birthday so yesterday i had try not to stay for OT and rush down to Woodland to buy her present. I bought her a OP waist pouch and a necklace(she requested). I was so angry today due to one of my colleague. As i had mention earlier, today is grace birthday so the gift was shared by 5 people. And previously Kate birthday was on 11th Dec and her present was shared by 4 people. As last month i was so busy with my study, my colleagues had planned that they will buy the present for them. In the end, no one bought anything.... For Kate's present - it is supposed to buy by C but in the end, she together with me and grace shopped for Kate's gift. The shopping was done after out section dinner...
This was actually okay for me. It was the issue that happen today made me so mad! Grace's present was supposed to be purchased by Janette. I understand that she was very busy so i decided to volunteer myself to buy the present on Monday. And then i totally forgotten about it as i went to bugis and shop in fox... (50% discount) . So the next day, i informed all of them that i had not buy yet.
Then yesterday i tried my best to finish my work on time and quickly rush down to shop for grace present. The two items were both in her "wish list". So i was so happy that i got what she wanted. And Especially the necklace i like it alot. It was sold to me for 2 for $10 so i think it's worth it. I also bought the wrapping paper and decorate it and even print out the birthday card... (sob...)
Then when i informed C on the cost of the present, she ask me why is it so expensive... Let's do a calculation: Kate's gift = dinner bag $23.90 This is shared by 4 people, so each of them have to give $6. Grace's gift = waist pouch $18.40 necklace $ 5 Total cost is $23.40. This is shared by 5 people, so each has to give $4.70. Which is more expensive? C told me that the necklace is expensive. She had seen some places like orchard, or jurong point has this kind of necklace for 3 for $10. So i asked her, are you sure is this kind of necklace? She said yes and even said it is available in many colours. I was so mad! If she think she can get it cheaper. Then why not she go and buy the present... And before this, when we are having tea break @ 10am, we passed the present to grace. After the tea break, while we were walking up the stair, i was telling her that i went to buy the present yesterday.. She said that no wonder i was rushing home after work yesterday. I should have said that i was going to buy grace present. (hello... as if she want to help me) If you don't intend to help, don asked. I felt so sickening. Can she stop pretending to be nice lady. I dislike this kind of person and i can't stand her any more. I regret that i did not went for the interview that was recommend by my friend. I hope i can leave this section asap.

--> I shouldn't have sound so harsh. Actually it might be my temper. I should not sound as if it her fault totally. I supposed me and her cannot communicate. That's all. We can continue to be good colleuage and friend but when it's comes to discussing some thing just between two of us. I think it's won't turn out well. I think i was influence by someone. So i think i just have to forget whatever the person and try to understand her in "my" point of view.
