When I woke up this morning, I felt giddy and really tired... cuz I slept at 2 a.m. last night. So when I came to the office, I made myself a cup of Nescafe but I guess I put too much coffee so it was WAY too strong for me... it made me so queasy and nauseous! =P Puven saw that I was choking on my coffee and making funny faces so he offered to make me a cup of GOOD coffee. I followed him to the pantry and observed how he made it... hehehe... he put lotsa condensed milk, mixed it with hot water and then put ONE teaspoon of Nescafe in it... and it tasted much better! Hahaha... it's not that I never made coffee before but I just thought of making it stronger to keep me awake for the rest of the day... ;P
I worked on my case study today and read transcripts for Friends (Season 4). And while I was reading an exciting episode of Friends, Puven asked me to look at a Yellow Pages print (magazine) ad done by another agency and I spotted a grammatical error... which was:
"Stretch, Develop & Improvise Your Business..."
Improve - get better, advance, progress, develop, recover, perk up
Improvise - manage, get by, get along, cope, make do, make up, invent
Hence, the right word should be IMPROVE... not IMPROVISE... ;D
Puven said that it's a common mistake that ppl always make but he criticized the Copywriter who did the ad cuz he/she should have known better.
Just before lunchtime, Rachel came up and asked me if I wanted to have lunch with her and Brandon. I shrugged and then she used my phone to call Brandon's extension. When Brandon said that he was gonna have lunch with Rees and JD, Rachel said, "Never mind then", which meant that she didn't wanna have lunch with them (cuz she dislikes JD). So Brandon assumed that Rachel was gonna go ahead and have lunch with me anywayz... and I thought so too. But right after she hung up the phone with Brandon, she went back down to the Account Management Department and ignored me when I msged her online. So I assumed she had already gone out or something... =/
I was starving but I didn't wanna eat alone so I occupied myself with so-called work to distract myself from the hunger pangs... *sighs* When Brandon came back from lunch, he was shocked that I didn't eat lunch with Rachel so he offered to tapau for me but I declined cuz it was already too late for me to have lunch. He thought I was mad so he called my celly but I had to hang up quickly as everyone in the Creative Department was doing work so it was pretty quiet. I didn't want anyone eavesdropping on me so I told him to chat with me online.
We had a fight because of Rachel... cuz Rachel told Brandon that I told her "everything" about me and him... which wasn't true cuz I never actually admitted that Brandon was my boyfriend... I only told her that we meet once a week. So basically, she assumed we were together... as I NEVER mentioned the word "boyfriend", "girlfriend" nor "love". I hafta admit I was a bit pissed off cuz I felt as tho he was interrogating me and I thought he didn't trust me. I was rude to Brandon... so he got mad and ignored me for a while. After a while, I apologized to him and he surprised me by saying, "Baby, I love you." He had to attend a meeting by then so we didn't chat after that.
When Brandon was ignoring me, I confided in Rees about what happened so he went down to Whatzup to check on Brandon... hehehe... Rees had something for Brandon to burn anyway... so Rees was kind enough to do me a favor. Rees "reported" to me that Brandon seemed busy with work so Brandon didn't tell him anything about what happened... *shrugs*
Thanks, Rees... you're truly my confidant and I'm glad I have you to seek advice from... =)
