About the GrumpyQueen

A.K.A Gatekeeper

I love food, don't deprive me of it.

I'm not Princess, I'm Queen

I can be quite grumpy and when I am, I hide here, my dungeon for reflections, ramblings and ranting.

Whatever I write are opinions, and may not be the whole truth. Do not read it like the Gospel.

I hate as vehemently as I love
I already know I'm crazy, be my friend, it's safer

Different is not bad, just not the same as the rest

If you don't like me, it's probably mutual
But I'm nice, really :p

I just got fined $6

This was supposed to be up last week when I received a nice pink letter from HDB fining me $6. Knn. I was fined for overstaying in a lot.

But that's ok, my mistake, I pay for it. What I'm pissed off about is that they had the guts and the audacity to send me a late notice when I never received the summon slip on my windscreen.

My coupon would expired at 1620hours. Time of offence is 1645 hours. I remember leaving my aunt's house ~1610hours. Takes me about 10 minutes to get to the car, including climb up the stairs to the lot. (Cos it's a MSCP.)

Logically speaking, I should have seen the attendant if my time of offence was 1645 hours mah! But how come I didnt see her, nor that stupid slip? What are the chances of the slip flying away in a MSCP?

I think nowadays things are becoming invisible. Warden invisible, even the summon slip is invisible. But it's ok, I'm gonna pay the fine (cos it was my mistake) then write a nice "feedback" for them, hoot them kao kao.

Knn. I guess the warden must have reached there at 1610 hours, just nice coupon expire but need to give me some grace period. So she went to other decks. Sekali I came back, and drove off by the time she came back to my car. So happened she didn't meet her quota for her day and already got my details so just fine lor.

It may sound cliche but it's not about the $6 but the principle behind this. I feel so cheated by them.

In a separate incident, really fucking pissed with this guy from my subgroup. I've got 2 subgroups, this guy is not from my regular subgroup.

The nerve of him to say things like, "no changes to be made..." and he keeps harping on the stupid deadline. To me, to hell with that bloody deadline. As long as I haven't presented, you can still make small changes here and there what. What's more important is that the final product is the closest you can get to perfection and not produce some half past six work cos you wanna stick to your self imposed deadline.

If tmr you gonna die, you bought your coffin 1 year ago and it doesn't fit you now, are you gonna try to squeeze in anyway cos you need to meet the "deadline?"

If tmr you gonna get married, suddenly your bride ran away, are you gonna grab any Jane, Mary or June to marry so you can stick to your so-called deadline?

We don't have until next year to produce a perfect product, but even if you finished 2 days before deadline, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna use the 2 days to perfect it further or just leave it cos it's the stupid deadline?
