Oh, many others faced the same prob too! About not being able to "create new post" these past 3 days. Kept getting a "This server is currently experiencing a problem. An engineer has been notified and will investigate. Status code: 1-500-19" error msg. Luckily some kind soul left a solution on the online blogger help forum - just type "www2" instead of the usual "www" and you'd be brought back to good, old "create new post" screen. Try it, if you are similarly stuck. Rather than sit and wait for the prob to be solved by engineers...
Anyways, typed out a quick entry yesterday nite on Word, coz just wanna get it out. Posting it here now.

Hee. Added a small feather to my cap on Tue. Cleared my interview, so am now on official appointment. Finally... after 2.5yrs of sincere community service (1yr as SH, another 1.5yr as H). I'd probably call it - 'justified redemption'? Thanks for the recognition. At least now, I think some ppl may think twice before they pull their weight on me. =P
There'd be a few treats coming along for those dear and near. Already bought mudpies for IE pals. And cakes (with notes of apprec) for my hardworking SHs and ASHs. Coming up next will be a durian dinner with volunteer buddies (plus some tile-washing if we are up to it). And a crystal jade snack with MLL - my faithful pal since we first embarked on this altruistic journey 4yrs ago. And of coz, simple breakfasts/lunches with dear paternal uncle and maternal aunt. Not to forget a get-together session with my subject comrades. And also a small treat for this unique 'critical-but-work-hard' grp in institution. [Marly and Fish, i've not forgotten about u both! U'd get ur turns when u return from respective foreign lands eh.] At the end of it all, I'd prob have to swim 100X around the olympic pool and would have burnt a small hole in the pocket. Bleh. Bring it on. Towards better days.
Boss's undergoing a tough patch these few days. Some kid, with his eloquent but reckless online writings, nudged his blood pressure to a brand new high earlier in the week. I was so afraid he'd suffer an attack as he perched precariously at the edge of steps. If I were his daughter, I'd prob worry all the time. =P And just heard news that boss's mama went to the heavens this afternoon.. Released from physical pain. Reminded me of ma of coz. But he is a luckier man, for at least he got to be with his mama for another 15yrs more than moi. But then again, one can never directly compare the exact minutes + seconds and draw valid conclusions, for it's the quality of time spent together that holds ground. In any case, my really sincere condolences.
Alrights, dunno why a happy start ended in a sombre manner. Writing can be as unpredictable as real life eh. Goodnights!
On 11 May again:
Okie, successfully posted. Am gg to meet my volunteer pallies now. Hope the blogger dudes managed to solve the broken thread prob soon.
