Alright! Updates for the past few days

Saturday:

Didn't know that I was going to be jie mei for my cousin until my auntie asked my mum about it. OOPS~~~~~~ It wasn't really clear to me too....

Had the wedding dinner at sentosa golf club. The freaking place is damn posh and they serve in individual portions!! This is the first wedding dinner I have attended so far that serve food in individual portions. The food is of quite a good standard and I simply love the mango pudding (also a first of a kind dessert for me in wedding dinners)They also had young asparagus in one of the dishes. I'm really glad that this is not my friend's wedding or else the ang bao I need to give will need to be damn big lors!!!

I also wore my super high shoes that day and the most most most HIP thing that happened that day was.......
MY FAMILY went St James with my cousins!!!! we went to dragonfly but the songs are abit retro retro kind. The chinese songs are LIVE but they were popular even before my parents were born or maybe too young. WAs sitting down all the way cause I was wearing the super high shoes so can't dance at all..... Stayed there for around one hour before my bro send us home (cause he had a movie appointment so we can't explore all the places) BOOHOO!!!!!!! But the fact that my parents went to St James still stuns me abit... I have a crazy FAMILY and I love it!

Sunday:

Started working at John little and have to wake up damn early lor (remember that I was at St James the previous night!!!) Was 5 mins late cause I was waiting at the entrance (DAMN STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!) until I decided to go to the back to check whether there's a staff entrance. Due to the fact that I was late, I didn't get to hear all the things from the briefing. Was quite lost cause I don't know anything (obviously) and just looking at other people doing the float in. Alot of situations happened as I am not really used to doing cashiering. Had lunch alone at BK cause the senior pack her own lunch from home. Just going to BK, I spent more than my hourly pay. It's frankly quite shitty if you think it that way!!! After that, had a customer was complaining about us (me and the senior) for working very slow (OBVIOUSLY!!!!!!! THIS IS MY FREAKING FIRST DAY LEHS!!!)

BUT!!!!! someone special(SS) came to find me to have dinner. We had dinner at john silver (CHEAPER than BK) and I headed back to work. SS even waited for me till I end work. Really quite touched actually but I was in a foul mood as my toes were aching like siao. In the end, I realised that it's because the shoes were too small (cause feet will expand after standing and walking for some time). Actually, I'm suppose to buy another pair of shoes But I don't really wanna bother since it's only a two weeks kind of thing!!

Monday:

More clear about what's happening in the morning although I still can't do it by myself. Had lunch alone cause different time slots from other people. There were two customers that left quite a deep impression to me.

Firstly, is a lady that wanted to ask whether there are a certain brand available at other outlets. I really REALLY wanted to help but I don't know that to dial landline, I must press 9 first... so I couldn't help much. In the end, she is quite pissed (cause it's really quite a simple thing to do but unfortunately I don't know how to) and I asked her to go to the customer service cause I think they would be more clear. After a while, she came back to buy the ties and I think she had given up on JL totally from her tone as she was telling me that the customer service can't help much too.

Next, its a young guy who was asking for eau de toilette for a certain brand and I REALLY cannot hear him and ask him to repeat. He repeated but I still can't hear so I just tell him that everything is at that area. He asked me whether I understood what he meant then I said, no.... Despite knowing that, he asked me to check whether there is atock for the thing which I didn't even know. I wonder why he didn't ask me whether I have stock for this (pointing at the sample DIRECTly) It will definitely help me in understanding what he meant.

Additionally, don't keep returning stuff lehs.... damn ma fan de lehs....
;p just joking
I think it's a good experience to get although I felt quite useless after the first day.... haiz.....

Went to eat japanese cold soba today, still taste as good as before. Maybe will go down more often in the future since it's quite near. The raw salmon is fresh too.

going to work soon too....at last got money le. keke..... if you guys want to visit me, just msn me to know the location. :D Maybe I could even meet clarissa for lunch some time. heehee....

I also just realised that cashiering isn't as simple as I thought at least in john little. There is freaking a lot of vouchers, cards and valueplus points to be given to customers. Really pray that I am able to get customers that are reasonable and don't ask funny questions. It's only two weeks so let's hope for the best for me!

You may get rants from me in the next two weeks so just bear with me.

I think now I know why people like to watch tiger woods play golf.

The reason: People know that Tiger Woods has a high possibility of doing miracle shots.

*random rubbish*

June 17, 2008

basically still slacking at home right now. maybe going for the john little interview later and hope that I can earn some money. If I managed to got through, you guys must come and find me hor!!!!! Prolly want to get the one at ps cause I love town. WHAHAHAHA...... actually the one at woodlands is nearer to my house. *consider consider*

Just watched an anime named bartender. Actually, I'm always fascinated by alcohol (since young) and the anime brought it to another level altogether. I don't think I would mind being a bartender in singapore in the future (though I really want to exclude to throwing of the bottle) Or maybe I would start having my own bar lounge in my future home. The layering of alcohol is just plain fascinating. I wonder why did I even want to study life science (okay okay!!!! let me clarify that I didn't regret it except for the job searching part X| I STILL LOVE LIFE SCIENCE!!!!!!) hahaha....

I totally miss my margarita at cafeiguana and really hope to get a drink from there soon but don't want to go alone lehs~~~~~ anyways, after the interview, I prolly will pop by for a drink or two. Miss my margarita!!!! with chips at one hand and margarita at the other, I am enjoying life totally.

Going to apply for visa soon!!! Jiayou jiayou!!!! travelling plans.... here I come.....

June 02, 2008

Reason for not blogging: My laptop was kidnapped to my new home. Having problems with wireless setup.
Result: Only my laptop can work in the house now. WHAHAHAHA.....

What happened from the time I last blogged:
Friday:
1) Got my results for the final semester. Didn't get to check it myself cause my laptop was kidnapped on 29th of May.
Satisfaction: None.
Reason: Didn't do well for the modules. Felt that I could have done better though.
2) Attempt to put make up since I am going into workforce soon.
Satisfaction: Not sure
Complains:
1-Look like I have been beaten up
Reason: Put on dark brown eyeshadows + black eyeliner (which kinda smurge for no apparent reason)
2-Look like those going to geylang
Reason: partly due to the clothes that I wore
3) Got a message from someone that I know of asking "how's suntec?" so I replied "it's okay :)"

Saturday:
Did up the cross stitch for the scorpio mini pillow. Haven't had a chance to take picture yet but I am damn proud of it. HAHAHAHA...... Went to my new house. hahaha..... My elder bro rented Indiana Jones (don't know which episode) just remembered that it was about a cult and the leader takes out the heart from the sacrifice. I remembered watching it when I was young as I was traumatised by the "taking out of heart" scene. Slept in new house.

Sunday: Went back to suntec since we were interested in the book exhibition but was terribly disappointed. Half of the exhibition was on children education kits and children books. Most of the other books were in chinese and the only place that caught our attention is times with a very small collection of books. Didn't get anything in the end and I think the exhibition shows that singaporeans adults no longer read english books since there is no longer a demand for english books in major book exhibition or they are too rich to want to go exhibition. Do find out the answer yourself.

Monday: Very bored so spent like 1 hour blogging in the midst of noisy polishing of the glass door.
