What date is it?

Dad went on this conference-thingy out of state. I felt chills as mom told me he got a whole chalet to himself. Oh, this is the one I was talking abut these past weeks—the phone calls, the part where dad refused to let mom go—by the way, she didn’t want to because of my sis and bro high school and junior high midterms.

And i'm as always, working oh-so hard to get my paycheck. I worked on Saturdays when my coworkers take a leave 'to take care of family matters'--and I keep having problems with my translation--I got sick a few days ago, and I accidentally translated part of the text for a Motorola manual to Indonesian. Well, my other co-worker (also named Sophie, like my boss), keep having major headaches trying to clean up my mess. And both of my projects--including the current one now--are way due(including my library books. Lucky only four days due!)

And, I'm more demotivated to work now. Why? cuz mom told me not to use any of the pay money--which will amount to 2000++. She wanted me to buy this new car (which I really liked) and guess when--on my third year! I've been promising my friends that I'll get a car by second year, cuz mom is thinking to buy herself a car, and give hers to me. As soon as she knows how much I'll be paid, she said that I'll work until THIRD year to get the maximum money for the MAXIMUM down payment. Oh, come on! I can't wait that long. I have ADD already!
Where can I get that handphone I wanted! I don't want cheap ones--I want one with organisers and document viewer and Internet--cuz I'm the type who wants to get organized--BADLY.
I need that handphone! I already wanted them after my first year in Uni. That time I got my first paycheck, and I had to use it to buy this laptop or I'll die of boredom cuz dad's PC crashed.

Oh, that picture? That's the boss' little kid. The first time I got my job six months ago, she's still a newborn. But Ms Tubby Cheeks here is huge enough to gurgle and laugh at my animated dancers in Windows Media Player. The first time I saw her after six months, I almost didn't recognize her--I thought she was a boy because she had that David Beckham Mohawk thing going on (how does she keep her hair up every day? it seems like it's all gelled up!)

I want my handphone! My plan--to work on selected low-money projects that after two months--I'll have enough money to buy only a handphone. Or get so many projects that I'll save enough money to buy a handphone and a second-rate student budget car NOW.

And if I don't have a car? Ah, big deal. I'll just annoy my dad by going with him everyday. Then
the detective is back on the job!
