Thankful for this.

In the end, everything went fine enough.
Went to town in the afternoon and then back to my granny's in the evening. Some homecooked food like finally~

Conclusion : day was well spent

Back to black


Decided to dye my hair back because the red was fading a little.

*Sighs* So now I screwed everything up. Wth was I thinking.

She doesn't mind~

Hmphhhhhhhh as expected.


Whateverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Laxingttm.

While waiting for the paint to dry, I decided to check Daily Horoscope:


Scorpio Mar 30 2012 
You are an imaginative person, Scorpio, and you have been gifted with great creativity and originality. That gift may come through in some artistic way, such as playing the piano or painting or sculpting. Or, your gift may be expressed in the business world. But right now you may be trying to be too creative to solve a conundrum. You are thinking outside the box and reaching for the most outrageous options to make something work. All you really have to do, though, is look for the simplest and most obvious answer.


Accurate enough. HAHAH I painted the slice of tree trunk and the wooden apple cut-out. One more wooden postcard to go~

Feeling Woody

I bought three pieces of wood today LOL

One's a piece of wood designed to look like a postcard. The other one is a wooden cut-out of a bitten apple. The third is a piece of tree trunk slice.

Don't ask me why I bought them HAHAHA
Actually I wanted to buy glass, like test tubes, beakers that sort but then again what am I going to do with them~ I remember the last time I bought test tubes, whatever I tried to do was quite fail. *Sighs*

Met up with Rena, Yvonne and Audrey at town. Lunched at some Jap restaurant then well, explored town with Audrey as usual. We walked from Ion to Plaza Sing then to Parkmall and Singapore Shopping Centre then back to Takashimaya (since I wanted to go to Art Friend again). Tiredttm.

These days, I realize I keep seeing women with I cup getting featured in the taiwan variety shows I watch every night from 10pm-12am (Somehow, I just like watching these shows. Educationalttm HAHA The one I'm watching right now is talking about menses and women's experience with them. Tampons freak me out :S)
I is like.............. Incredible.
How can you even have boobs that big omg.

It's pretty cool like people have ipods, iphones, ipads and you actually have I cup. Au Naturel somemore. Cool or what~~~~~

Replay replay replay



Oh yeah, JB's new song (Boyfriend) is out HAHA Just had to say that.

Now I should really go to bed.

Sleep?

*YAWNS* I'm so tired - and I just drank teh tarik because I wanted to feel more awake.

Anyway, I think I'm going to dye my hair.
Or maybe not.

But more towards yes.

Shall ask my mum.

LOL

Saw this when I was scrolling through tumblr (source). Birds are pretty gross but this is quite funny.

Monday, March 26, 2012

Oh so nice.

Uh-oh I don't know what's up with my mum again....... I'm so gonna hole myself up in the room.

Anyway, I just came back from GWC after watching Hunger Games (the part where they receive sponsors reminds me of my catered food for dinner LOL) with Megz. It was a pretty good movie but I think I want to read the books and so, guess I'll borrow from TW ^^ (THANKS IN ADVANCE! HAHHAHA) + I FINALLY LEARNT HOW TO WALK HOME FROM GWC

THANKS MEGZ! :D

I haven't really been going to Great World because that place is really.......

SO NEAR YET SO FAR.
I can see the building from my place but I just don't know how to get there. And it's even worse at night since I don't know which buildings I'm supposed to be walking towards to.

Work ended at about 4.30pm. I was pretty bored so I challenged myself to not use my phone (not even to check what time it is) until my shift ends. Well, I guess it was considered successful. Hurray~~~~~~~
Today, I found out that the Anniversary event thing for the candy shop is actually next Sunday and not this Sunday.............. and another thing I realized : Promoters are supposed to dress up like fairies on that day. That wasn't the original plan - the original plan was that promoters are just supposed to be dressed up and I thought I could just wear whatever I want to (If I were to work on that Sunday)

so now I know~

but then I don't feel like accepting the offer because.... omg, dressed up as a fairy?! I know I'm small enough and I always self-proclaim to be some ~angel~ (I know angel ≠ fairy hahhaha but well, similar to a certain extent) but.......... can you just imagine me with er wings.. and I don't know what else I'm supposed to wear. Kinda retarded.. (Don't say it's just right for me)

I don't know what I was thinking. I told the manager "MMM.. OK! I think I will most probably be free." The whole fairy idea slipped my mind. Zz

Think I should reject asap so they can find somebody else - who preferably is small enough to look like a fairy LOL

Oh blah blah blah

I just went onto Facebook and saw this friend of mine who uploaded his camwhore pictures via MyPad for iPad.


Camwhore is one thing - I rarely see pictures of guys camwhoring
but MyPad for iPad sounds weird. MYPAD.
Can you just imagine a guy saying something like "Hold on a moment, I just need to post some pictures onto my pad" It just sounds pretty strange.


I don't know why but I have so many thoughts in my head as I scroll through Facebook. Like as if I'm judging people based on their FB posts HAHA Right now, I see a photo of my friend(facebook) winking and under "What's on your mind" i.e. the "status" is : Having sex doesn't make you a whore, just like being a virgin doesn't make you a saint .


Like..... huhh??? What's the link? And what's the message...............?? 
and there is this one person who can spell everything except for the word YOU


For eg. I don't understand why eu have to do this to me


EU 


EU


EUROPEAN UNION?


*scrolls down*
EH? Who is "Casper Akacarelessghost"..........? and he just added 8 photos to the album "Me,me,me" That's.. cool.


Ok stop it. HAHAHAHA I mean not like I'm damn cool but, sometimes I don't understand why people do the things they do on Facebook. Not like I actually need to understand but JUST SAYING~


Well, Sunday was pretty fine. I woke up at 11am? Had breakfast then lazed around, did Sudoku, read the papers then went to Bugis where I had dinner at Thai Express then Watsons then Breadtalk (so that means I have something to eat before going to work tomorrow~) then NTUC (Ben and Jerry's ice cream in the fridge! and I bought teh tarik too ^^) and finally back home. HAHA I know it doesn't sound like it was a whole lot of fun but I consider it a pretty good day since my mum was in a good enough mood --> which meant she didn't nag ^^


Oh, I tripped over the caution cone that marks "cleaning in progress" Well, not exactly tripped. I didn't fall.... the cone did and it was pretty loud (so people who were queuing at the taxi stand turned to look). I was with my brother and my mum then and they just walked away, pretending to not know me ><
then while on the bus to Bugis, I took the seat that was meant for "One adult + one child only"
Normally, people wouldn't squeeze themselves next to a stranger if somebody occupied that 1.5 seat. Or at least that's my take but some lady squeezed herself beside me and she was.........


quite big. I could feel her butt rubbing against mine on the side and it was.. er pretty uncomfortable. She didn't seem to realize though~


*Abrupt ending* Goodnight :)

Just shush

Huhhhhhh so what now... I'm so troubled :S




I woke up to my mum's nagging and that sucks. It's like Saturday just got ruined. The same old thing she used to say - the thing about getting a job (wtf it's Saturday....... and I do work. I don't understand why my mum can't seem to remember the things I do, like when I do housework. Oh, so nobody's home when I'm sweeping the floors at home and so it's not counted?! WTH? So nobody sees me when I leave for work and thus it means I'm not working? How ridiculous is this~) and not sleeping in till 11am (But I don't see what's wrong with sleeping in when it's a Saturday.. Am I supposed to be up early at 8 plus/9am just because my mum wakes up early? Just give me a reason why I should and if it's logical enough then fine, I'll do just that.)

This is crazy. Thank God my mum just left the house and so Saturday's not entirely ruined. If I were to be in NS or something, I bet I'll be treated way differently since I come home for only 1.5 days per week? Hmphhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

How now brown cow

Thinking of what I can really do to show you how much I appreciate our friendship. :'( ohhnoooooooo, I think I'm going to cry on that day.

Friday, March 23, 2012

Oh yay, red.

 From like, what, two days ago?


Taken@my place. Impromptu meet up with V and N~

I survived 10.5 hours at work yesterday.

It was slack - but could have been slacker if the boss were not in the shop. Crapped a lot with the new manager. We talked about shopping, her visits to Thai pubs/clubs, how she hates school, how she was an ah lian in the past (because we saw this girl who wore a really short dress and she kept using the middle finger on her friend :S like as if it's something cool but it's not), how some guys wear belts of a different colour from their shoes etc.

Somehow I feel lucky. It's like.. the new manager came at the right time - just when I was sian to go back to work at the candy shop. Not like the previous one was bad, just that the new one craps+slacks more and is way cooler HAHA And ever since I came back to work after MIA-ing for close to two weeks at the candy shop, I realize............................. people do remember me. Pretty touched~ Like the random uncles who deliver stuff to the restaurants etc. stopped to ask where I've been and why haven't they seen me for so long. +the cleaner uncle and some Filipino lady who works at the Jap restaurant.

So I guess I'm not that...................... invisible to others. :')

Apparently some girl who took the Tuesday evening shift after mine told the new manager she was checking out some "shuai4 ge1" and guess where is he from~

CITIBANK. I wonder if we saw the same guy. lol~~

Just came back from town (town again) and I bought two pairs of shoes today..
Should start scheduling the available dates to work for next week and I hope I'll get the salary for IT Fair+Jimmy's office ASAP. zz

Screw probation.

Back to work @Candyshop

Initially, I was just sian about going back. The past two weeks when I worked at IT Fair and Jimmy's office just made me feel like time really passes so slowly when I'm at the candy shop. But I can't be that irresponsible and just make a sudden decision to quit my job - Unless I found myself another job?

So I went back. Late.
Not exactly my fault................ there was some miscommunication. The manager said I was supposed to report at 11am sharp because there was supposedly a meeting and the boss wants to talk to me (I thought he was going to ask why I didn't work at the shop for close to two weeks). That was the first message but then later, I received another message, confirming my shift for the evening so I was a little confused but since the latest message mentioned "evening", I thought I was starting work at 4.30pm.

+ I woke up at 10.50am -.- because my phone died and the alarm didn't go off
I just sat on my bed and stoned, like....... what to do now~

Well, the manager asked me to cab down to Vivo and he'll pay for the cab fare.
It was about 6 bucks but he gave me ten and asked me to keep the change. I guess it was because he felt like it was his fault for the confusion, which resulted in me rushing down to work.

New manager

There was this lady - supposedly the new manager. At first I was a little freaked out because well, my work at the candy shop's been pretty slack (because the manager is also quite slack HAHA). I didn't know if this new manager will be like........ superenthu when it comes to pushing sales -->which is not my style of promoting either.

To my surprise, she's really nice and we talked a lot. She seemed more like a working partner than a superior. The new manager came out of the shop to give out candies as well and I told her it felt a funny since she's like my boss...................... but she said I'm more like her senior since I've worked in the shop longer than she did (two days). We really just stood outside and talked while we gave out candies - talked about marriage (because she mentioned she was 25 and it reminded me of what I was talking about with A and R yesterday - How 25 is the ideal age to get married HAHA), work related stuff, cute guy from Citibank and alot of random stuff. She knows how sian it is for me to be out here and get ignored by people so she'll ask me to go into the shop to help her do some random stuff/just stand around/act busy so that time can pass by faster. And she used the f-word a few times HAHA How cool is my boss~

And did I mention she's as small as I am? :D
She's around my height........... or maybe a bit shorter (yeah~ yeah~ yeah~). She told me that the boss asked her to put on the uniform (it's just this shirt with the name of the candy shop printed on it + jeans) and she refused to because she's already that small and she looks young...... She just wanted to look more like a employer than an employee - I told her I can understand how she feels HAHA

She knows she's small but she just doesn't want to look THAT small.
Woes of the small peeps~ LOL

How I still haven't got through probation
Ok so I received my pay for February. I calculated and I'm supposed to get at least 400 bucks - if my pay is still 5 per hour, it's supposed to be 6/hour after probation but I wasn't sure if I'm even through probation.

Part timers are supposed to get through probation after working for a month. I have no idea if they consider 30 days = 1 month (meaning you have to work for 30 days) or if I can work like 2 days/week but for the whole of Feb................

So I really have no idea but the manager said I'm supposed to be through probation so I was looking forward to getting a pay more than $400 but I got $400 + a few cents if that even counts.
The manager said he proposed for me to be done with probation but the boss didn't allow and he said the boss will explain to me.

And yep, the boss did explain to me but it all seemed like bullshit. He said he seen my sales records and that they were good. Then why am I still on probation.........................
He said "I think it's only fair that you'll get a pay rise since you've been working for some time"
Then why am I still on probation.................
"I'll propose it to my wife and see what she thinks about it. If she agrees, you'll get a pay rise at the start of April" --> AND THAT'S FOR APRIL'S PAY. Then what about March?!

I THOUGHT PROBATION WAS JUST FOR A MONTH????????????????

I really don't understand.
The manger doesn't either. And the new manager too.
They both felt like I should have earned much more. Together with the commission and stuff, I should be getting more. THEN WHY AM I NOT...........................

Well, the manager said he'll talk to the boss about it again. He says he wouldn't take down my break times (because I'm supposedly not paid when I take breaks) so that I can earn more..

I don't know man but I just feel like, there should be some rules set from the start. If I were to tell my mum about this, I'm sure she'll just want to talk to the boss or something.

Pretty much embarrassing
Because I rushed to work today, I forgot to change my bra. Like I wanted to wear something of a pastel colour since the top is white but.. since I forgot, that meant I wore pink.

:S I hope it wasn't that obvious but actually it was.
The worst thing is only finding out after work. Or maybe it isn't THAT bad. If I were to look on the brighter side, I guess it means at least I didn't have to be that conscious while I was at work.
So very unfortunately, the shirt I brought to change after work was white as well. ZZ

I was so hungry after work and I was craving for the fried chicken from Shilin - and I just watched on some variety shows that people with big boobs eat a lot of fried chicken LOL

But then I didn't want to spend that much money since it'll be dinner time soon so I was thinking of blueberry waffles - Cheap and nice.
So it's between saving money and having bigger boobs.


Save money lah. HAHAHA

Home alone

I'm pretty glad now that the March hols are officially OVER.

Because that'll mean I can be alone in the afternoons - and even better for the next 3-4 days because my brother will have to stay in school till 9pm ~PARTYINDAHOUSE~ HAHA

What I do when I'm alone at home:

Actually, nothing much.
-Watch TV
-Read a book
-Snack
-Laze around, either on the bed or the chairs in the living room
-Be dressed in just my underwear after showering (I can't do that during the March hols when my brother's at home, obviously~)
-Think about how I want to cook/bake something but end up erasing that thought because I don't have any ingredients (that's the main thing) and also, I don't want to screw the kitchen up.
-Sing out loud to Backstreet Boys :D
-Try out the clothes I don't wear anymore/never worn because I just don't think they look right (the stuff you buy on impulse) but still trying them out because who knows, I may just think they look fine all of a sudden.
-Sweep the floors + cook rice #likeaperfecthousewife ^^

Shall enjoy being home alone for the next 1 hour+ before I leave to meet R and A.

I laughed to this mv (How lame is my life)

Nothing?

I did nothing today - Ok I finished reading a book, some newspapers and tried to change the header for my blog and I can't seem to resize it. Oh wells.

I never knew that women have to dress up in order to get into clubs on Ladies' Night.

Women who dress androgynous are not allowed into clubs/have to pay a cover charge of 22 dollars or something (whereas men pay 22?) "The clubs only allow people who are 100% female/male"
So there were women who complained that it's discriminating since they're judged based on their appearance and dress sense. :/ Like there were some who were told they look like males and thus, not allowed to go into the clubs. Then there was also this lady who was not allowed into the club because she didn't fit the requirements of being "young and trendy".

meh~ #likeasheep #boring

then read about the extravagance at weddings + parties before the actual day. All the themed weddings e.g. fairytale - and couples will rent vintage cars, have their wedding photoshoot with carriages, princess-like gowns.........

How luxurious~

meh~ #nothingreallythatinteresting

Strange

I took that off tumblr and reblogged it because it felt right in some ways.

I wouldn't say I like strangers a lot but I like strangers and the weird things they do sometimes. The other day, when we (Kelz and I) were walking to some coffeeshop near Jimmy's office for lunch break, I was telling Kelz how funny I thought everything was. I remembered there was this picture on tumblr featuring two handprints on a wall so two random strangers are supposed to place their palms there and remove when they're no longer strangers. The thought hit me during IT Fair when I stood opposite this booth, in a way forced to stare at the dude working opposite me that day since I'm alone at my booth and I kinda not have anywhere else to look at but my front.


And I felt it was funny that we (me and whoever who stood opposite me that day --> the guys working in the opposite booth kept changing like I've mentioned) can become at least acquaintances - on the Facebook level. It's like we never talked or what and we never worked together. We merely stood opposite each other and yay we're "friends". I made two new "friends" that way. And just because we were "forced" to stand before each other................  it's quite strange isn't it.

mmmmmm
I like the idea that strangers don't know anything about you - not that I have anything to hide anyway but it's just pretty cool. But I guess they also judge you based on your appearance ><

Anyway, I went for the NUS Openhouse just now and saw quite a few familiar faces. Some I didn't expect to see and I ran so fast wth. Why did I even have to try to hide


and somehow, it seems like all those I was once close to are doing so fine... and definitely with me not in their lives. But whatever.

I can feel the heat

It's so warm it's driving me crazy.

I'll be leaving for NUS Open house in a few minutes time. The thought of having to squeeze with so many other people when we reach the campus kinda makes me feel sick but I still have to check it out and so I will.

I don't think I'll see anybody dressing like

A Cardigan - Cardigans can basically go with anything, and they’ll certainly make it look like you know what you’re doing when it comes to clothes.  When worn with a shirt, tie, and jeans like in the above picture, you get an elegant yet casual look.  Worn with dockers and a shirt and tie, and you’ve captured to professional yet stylish look.  Wear it with a t-shirt or polo and you look casual, but well dressed.  Cardigans are incredibly versatile, and they always look good.


I agree. 
LOL And I thought I was weird for being attracted to people who wear certain clothes but I'm not because I found out that N is attracted to guys who wear uniforms. Uniforms are pretty cool actually but school uniforms..........er................let me think about that.

Been pretty lazy when it comes to blogging these days. Probably update later. 



Fly by

Listening to Blue as I'm blogging. 

I feel like I've been pretty busy the past few days - three days spent in Jimmy's office so it's like you have to do admin work and also be some factory worker when he needs people do do stuff in the warehouse. Cheap labour as Jimmy calls it. HAHAHAH Jimmy omg.

So we were supposed to go cycling yesterday but we didn't. Because I kinda forgot we were going cycling. The last message I received was about meeting in a mall and I wore a skirt. (I should go cycling someday, it's been quite some time.) Had lunch then we went to town to catch a movie (This Means War) then dinner.

I kinda got scolded by this old man when we were in town though. It was that area in front of Mandarin Gallery, where you cross over to 313. There was this man who was giving out those brochures/booklets/pamphlets/whatever you call it, promoting Christianity. I said "No thanks" once but he kept pushing it to me. Maybe it was TOM, I kept saying "No thanks no thanks no thanks no thanks no thanks no thanks..." and the man just got irritated I guess and he was trying to preach to me and I was still saying "No thanks" I really cannot remember what he said but he ended with something like "You don't know what you're doing. There's somebody above watching you." and I just rolled my eyes because seriously~?! Who are you to tell me what to believe in~ and I already said NO THANKS but you're the one being annoying. I just said "BYE" to him and he walked away, mumbling some stuff.

The people around me were staring...
Ahh whatever.

Like a firefly

I'm starting to get worried about my hairfall problem again :/

Anyway, I've been working as Jimmy's assistant for the past two days together with Kelz.
It's pretty fine in there because you can talk/laugh and I guess also because I have a friend working with me. We'll laugh at our own Jimmy jokes, share snacks and workload, have lunch together etc. and it all makes work less dull.

Like today, we had lunch at some Thai restaurant somewhere near the office (the other staff have like 2 hours lunch break but as temp staff... We didn't take like 2 hours duh) and then went back to doing data entry. One of us will read out the model number, colour, quantity and price whereas the other will key in the data and I thought it was much faster that way. We finished our work so fast Jimmy couldn't find anything else for us to do today HAHAHA So he let us off one hour earlier ^^ It's pretty slack, you can just talk, play games on your phone, download apps, perhaps even take a nap because the two of us kinda share a cubicle with two desks and it's in a corner :D

This temp admin job was supposed to be just for two days but Jimmy said "See you tomorrow" before we left the office so I guess it means we have to go back again. Well it's still tolerable and it's like $6.50 per hour so why not~ but somehow, I dread going back to the candy shop. Maybe because of the 10 hours+ standing for 4 consecutive days during IT Fair.

Met up with the rest for dinner in town after work yesterday.


There was also this awkward moment when five of us were caught in the family room @ Mandarin Gallery by the cleaner. :S

Yuck

YOUNG BOYS ARE DAMN LAME.

Loved the breeze

Met up with Kelz for lunch at Marina Square and then we just walked about the area before her training starts. Received like 3 missed calls from the NS guy - I have no idea what he wants and he Whatsapped me to ask why I didn't reply to his messages.

Now I'm really scared of big people. Cacomorphobia from what I googled. You have no idea how big the two of them are.
I HOPE I WOULDN'T SEE ANY OF THEM OUTSIDE. ><

NICE BIG SUNFLOWERS

People were staring LOL




DONE WITH IT FAIR.

FINALLY. THE PAST FOUR DAYS WERE PLAIN EXHAUSTING but yet fun at the same time because of the people I worked with ^^ and the funny encounters during IT fair HAHA

So I was supposed to be promoting chargers from Energizer but I ended up selling speakers because they needed one person to be doing that. I agreed since you just have to stand there, play some music from your ipod if the customer requests - basically just stone and wait till somebody approaches you. It's good in a way that I wouldn't be ignored, the customer approaches me instead of the other way round :)
Sold the most speakers on Saturday, about 35-6. We are supposed to take down the number of products we sold because there'll be commission and I remember on the second day, I wrote down descriptions of the customers on a piece of paper. Quite a lot of old men bought speakers from me.

Old people are really funny. I remember this one old man who stood before me, counting two dollar notes one by one. He turned to explain to me what he was doing when he realized I was looking at him.
"I'm.... counting.. how.. many... two dollar...notes.. I have...... to get the.... adapter... one.....two....three...." He took quite some time and he counted till 9 and he bought the adapter.

Some people don't even test the sound quality of the speakers before they buy whereas there are the some who just need more assurance and they'll ask you to test the speakers in the box before they will buy it from you. There was this group of three yesterday who kept bargaining for a lower price. They thought they could reap EOS if they bulk purchase LOL Then I'll ask them "Do I look like the boss to you? The price cannot be any lower!!" Then they got me to ask the person in charge and I brought them some random staff to explain to them. They said something like if I were to give them a lower price, they'll buy 5 from me. But I am in no position to give them a lower price so~ (I don't want to have to pay for the discount I give them)

In the end, they didn't buy because they realized the speakers have no volume control. -.-

The story about the NS men:
Ok, there were these two guys who came to the counter because they wanted to buy speakers to bring to camp or something. So I said it should be fine because there were also two guys who bought one speaker the other day to bring to camp. They asked a lot of questions and talked a lot. Abit too much for customers but it's not like I can ask them to stop talking. They were like.... ok the first few times was funny but then they overdid it IMO. Like, they were helping me to promote the speakers even though they were still thinking if they should buy or not. The two guys just stood at the counter for a very long time until I asked them "ER. YOU GUYS AREN'T GOING TO WALK ABOUT?"

Then they asked me if I have a phone (-.- er, will you believe if I said I don't have one?) and I had my phone on the counter. The two guys took my phone and called themselves. I didn't even know they saved their numbers in my phone, with their names. *Just plain stunned* Because I wouldn't think anyone will do something like this to a random stranger. Then one of them sent me a message to ask if I have FB (which I didn't reply) and then a message to tell me who is A and who is B, describing themseleves (which I didn't reply too). Then the other guy also sent me a message at night to ask how many speakers I sold (and I didn't reply again). At 11 plus or 12 midnight, they started to call me. BOTH OF THEM. I didn't pick up.

The next day, one of them turned up at the IT Fair again. He told his friend (not the guy he was with yesterday) "Woah this one selling speakers lied to me lah" I don't know why he had to say what he did because I'm just selling the speakers and I'm not responsible for the sound quality or whatever. If you think it's not good enough then you can choose to not buy but they stood there, thinking if they should buy speakers then say I lied to them WTF. I remember I kept telling them "Aiya whatever. You can choose to not buy." because it was getting on my nerves. Like they kept comparing to 7-ll, saying how the speakers there are similar and cheaper. THEN GET IT FROM THERE LAH DUDE. *Rolls eyes*
I really got a shock when one of them appeared yesterday (and he stopped by the booth TWICE). My friend said the guy's big enough to throw me to somewhere far away LOL

That's probably the one negative part about IT Fair - difficult customers.
Another part will be when your superior makes things difficult for you. But not THAT MUCH so it was still pretty tolerable. Yesterday, Jimmy wore this shirt "I'll try to be nicer if you try to be smarter" I thought it was pretty funny. He always debriefs us after every day of the IT Fair and yesterday, I can't remember what question he asked but I heard somebody read out the words on his shirt. Totally laughed out loud. HAHAH

Then there was this guy who worked at the booth opposite me yesterday. I saw him trying to wave to me but he waved so fast I don't know if I'm supposed to know he's waving to me. He asked to add me on FB after everything. I had that feeling he's younger than me and yes, I'm right.....


omg......... I FEEL DAMN OLD.

:/

How I met Jimmy

10 minutes passed and there was nobody in sight.
I thought we were supposed to meet at the taxi stand@Marymount, 3pm? There I was, getting all impatient and anxious. How will Jimmy be like? Is he old..............?


LOL If you're wondering who's Jimmy, ok actually he's the dude in charge of the upcoming IT Fair@Suntec Convention or something. hahahhahahaha I was there at the taxi stand with a few others, who appeared to be waiting for Jimmy as well. Kelz came with me because I wasn't that sure as to where we were supposed to meet. Saw two girls who looked quite friendly so I went over to ask them "Hi, are you guys waiting for Jimmy for the IT fair?" and indeed, they were. Those were my two new friends for today since I don't know anybody and Kelz wasn't involved in this thing - she finished her product training already and this was my turn, with the people I'm supposed to be working with.

There were 10 over people I think, quite a number as compared to a total of 4 in Kelz's group.
Since there were so many people and Jimmy was the one who confirmed the attendance, I expected him to drive a van - he said transport was to be provided to his office

BUT HE CAME IN A CAR AND DROVE 4 PEOPLE OVER WHILE THE OTHERS WAITED - Don't know how many trips he made since he could only take 4 at a time.
The three people I went with didn't seem very friendly- ok, they were just talking amongst themselves because they know each other (two guys and one girl, one guy talked about some modeling interview he went to where he had to strip to his boxers and I was like :S Because he's not.............. like, not my type lah hahahahhaha)
The three people left almost immediately as they entered the office - because the two guys refused work for different products. They wanted to work together and the guy with the ~modeling experience~ was saying teamwork is better or something. So lame and gay. -.- And they left because they just wanted to work together which Jimmy couldn't tolerate.

About 6 people were chosen to promote earpieces/headphones and the rest of us were supposed to promote chargers. The whole thing ended at about 6pm and I was hungryttm.

Didn't know how to get myself out of where that place was at so I asked for directions to Buona Vista when I was actually in the Marymount area - I have no idea what I was thinking. Then the lady I asked shouted across the road, "TRACY! SHE WANTS TO GO TO THE MRT. BRING HER THERE!"
LOL So I followed Tracy and this other old man and I think they could tell I was walking slowly because they were in front of me so Tracy told me how to get there. And I walked...................... but then I realized "EH? But I should be going to Marymount to take a train to Bishan... And I asked the lady how to get to Buona Vista MRT Station."

Asked another lady and well, turns out that I was already walking towards Bishan MRT station so... I met Kelz there. Had very late lunch+dinner then went home.

*Working in the evening tomorrow~* Hope things will go fine at the IT Fair ><

Sick sad world

Everyone at home is taking their afternoon-evening nap and I'm here in the living room all by myself......

and thinking..........................

Still pretty indignant about everything.
and I really am clueless about what's going to happen next. 

What if I don't get into the course I want to?

Will I spend the next 4 years in misery?

How's University going to be like?

Will I put what I'm going to study to good use?
What will my career be?

I'm forever so lost.
19 seems old - Like I should already be acting like an adult, thinking like one, making decisions like one but I think I'm far from all that. I feel like crying thinking about all these.

When my family members asked how I did for A's, I said it was "ok................." because ok, it's not that bad like I have to retake or what. I told my mum that I can make it to a local U. I gave everyone the assurance that I know what I'm doing but actually, I don't.

Sian, maybe I'll ring up Tinkle Friend (lol) someday~

Near but yet far enough, sighs.

Went for the SMU openhouse today and......... I've got nothing much to say about it actually.
I'm dreading University. The thought of being in a new environment all over again -all the orientation (I hate orientations), self-introduction in classes etc. :S

Don't like all these right now.



When will I see you again..?

dafuq (UPDATED)

Well, my results aren't superb. But I guess it's a rather big leap from my UUUUUsual score so I wouldn't really complain and whine - and not like that will change it to AAAAA

Why do people expect so much out of HC? When I got my results, I really didn't know if I should feel happy or be upset about it. Before I got them, I was already tearing a little because I had that "I'm so not going to meet HC's standards" kind of feeling. My results weren't up to my expectations but what can I actually EXPECT when I've been a straight U student all these while.

Met up with Kelz at Marina Square after that and saw S with her classmates - she was telling me how well this girl from her school performed. It just made me wonder............... Why did I go to HC...
(C asked me if I regret going to HC today too. Well I can't say I regret because I kinda liked the fact that it was a totally new environment but then........... I think I totally screwed my studies up)

Now if I say stuff like "Not very good", people will still think it's a HC thing where "not very good" is still good enough in other schools. I don't know what am I rambling about lah but, I just feel quite sian about the fact that people in less prestigious schools are scoring much better than I am when it should be the other way round - isn't that what's expected of a HC student?

Ahhhhhhh I don't know what to think about my results but at least I can apply to a local university (I guess?)

**While we were waiting for the release of our results in the hall, I heard somebody beside me say "Who the hell is the one with the red hair?" LOL And I turned to look at him (when he realized how loud he was and turned away), kinda bewildered because "Who the hell are you, Army boy~"**

I'm going off to meet Chan for a movie now~

...

So I watched LOL (Starring Miley Cyrus and Demi Moore) with Chan. The guy who tore the tickets asked me if I was 16 - because it's an NC 16 movie. WTH~ At least it made me laugh a little. And I kept touching the guy who was sitting next to me in the cinema BY ACCIDENT because I couldn't find the thing to hold my can drink HAHAHA I was telling Chan "We better get out ASAP before he sees me"

mmmmmmmmmm... Most probably going for the SMU openhouse tomorrow, just to check it out because I have no idea what are the options available. Talking about results again......
I just showed my mum the cert and her response was already something I expected - which was why I kinda not want to tell her my results?

Running boy was one of the top scorers in the nation or something (sorry I wasn't listening). SIAN. It's funny how the people you laugh at in school because they're overly awkward and nerdy come out at the top eventually. Too bad for me. ><
BUT OK IT'S ALL OVER. *Though it really sucks to not have the ability to make choices.*Today was pretty eventful............................? I found a phone on the floor, collected my results, screamed because birds flew so low @Marina Square, watched a movie, no black clouds, survived something that could have been a road accident (the bus I was on with C almost crashed into another bus. It was THAT close.)




SORRY IF I IGNORED YOUR MESSAGES ASKING "HOW ARE YOUR RESULTS"
My results aren't that great. They are just...... ooooooooooooookkkkkkkkkkkk
But I'm not going to kill myself over them so thanks for asking anyway.
