OMG!!!! The past 1 week and for the next 3 weeks is HELL!!!!! I've never had so many things happening all at one time. Sei lor!!!! It really feels like the roof gave way and crashed over my head. My logistics company took a twist and suddenly there are some crucial decisions that needed to be made. That also means, I've to give a miss on one neighbor's wedding dinner because I'll be overseas at that time. Interior design side is also a big cramp in the stomach since everyone is trying to "kow tim" their projects before the "GHOST FESTIVAL"!!!! Ayo!!!!!!!
I actually woke up yesterday and had a panic attack. No joke!!! I hyperventilated like crazy and could not get out of bed. It took me half a day to actually come to terms and sort everything out. This is what I found out to be extremely effective when one is in the verge of a mental breakdown.
1. Stop whatever you are doing and BREATHE!!!
2. Pray if you are religious. It will help calm the nerves.
3. Start to list everything that needed to be done in black and white. It doesn't look so bad once it is taken out from your head. Also, cancel out one by one when it is accomplished.
4. We tend to get more negative news (via email or telephone) during this period. It only seen so because you are in a bad mood and tend to link everything to the root of the problem. DO NOT RESPOND to any email or calls before you take a step back and analyse. The "problematic" emails and calls may not seem so serious after you have re-read and analyse them.
I did just as the above and true enough, the problems seems to have lifted by itself and they were solved one by one. Although I had to work really late to accomplish that, I was really satisfied with the results and at least last night I had a good night sleep. So, let's hope in the next 3 weeks, I can be in control over the situation and they will not be as bad as they look. Wish me luck!

We know we are seeing trouble in the face...
1. When we put a person with an ego the size of a trailer truck in a Kancil.
2. When we put a sign saying "free samples" in a supermarket isle on a weekend sale.
3. When we decided to have dinner at an "Eat all you can" Japanese buffet restaurant.
4. When we give a despatch boy an urgent document and he has blood shot eyes and reeks of alcohol.
5. When we see the lady/man in front of you at the check out counter starts to contemplate which item she/he wants to buy and which she/he doesn't.
6. When the only table available at McD's is next to the one full of screaming kids squirting milkshake and ketchup at each other.
7. When the air stewardess' crowd around an ill passenger like she was a freak show instead of helping her.
8. When the foreign waiter doesn't understand anything you say and he is the only waiter available in the only restaurant in the place.
9. When what you thought you ordered turned out to be something gross like bull's testicles.
10. When everyone suddenly leaves a particular place and you find that you are alone in that place.
