[i][b]Is this true? I dunno... -.-"[/b][/i]
Oh well... That's all that pricked my deep curiosity this noon when I watched a programme on the Discovery Channel... :wink:
Haven't blogged For what seemed Weeks...no! Ages... [i][ps:Xactly 10 days of no blogs~][/i] Cos' mi fingers Were just Laying around like dust Plain lazy perhaps Or waiting for a blogging relapse?
Guess the waiting worked Though my bloggy's abit Long under-dated Oh well... It's all in the wit!
Lol... Yup I'm back... For today and the next few days, I hope :? Cos' starting next Tues, I'll be working on average, 13.5 hours at the S'pore Expo Hall 5, as a cashier for the Robinson's Warehouse Sale commencing from 28.04.04 --- 02.05.04 !!!
Man... Just 4 hours per day, training as a cashier at Raffles City's Robinson's Travel Good's Department these last four days, was already a wee bit harsh on my legs (thou' I hated to admit it). My legs are already turning to rubber! Even the new black shoes I bought just last Wed can do lil' to comfort my feet. Oh well, better than no comfort... :roll:
Being a Robinson's cashier, I've just realized today, is a wEeEeEe bit demanding. I dunno~ Or maybe, only I think so? They've 5 Non-Negotiables to follow by as their staff, but I was told that practically anyone in the Customer Service or Retails line, go by the same 5 NNs. Oh bother... Guess I'll have to put up with it till' the contract's over. But I kinda relish the feeling of having to be able to count money~ Heex!
:arrow: [i][b]Always wanted to be a cashier since I was a kid![/b][/i]
Lol... There you have it 8)
Hmmm... got something on my mind... Will be back~ :wink:
Btw... I had been busy playing.... NEOPETS~!!! That's why my fingers were too lazy to blog... :oops:
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You always said that you're right We're always in the wrong You said that we'd started the fight Whilst you in fact were comparing us to dung?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You always said that you're the best Doing all your bit for the family While you put unnecessary events to feast On your salary money?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You always said you were investing For our sakes When the money's nesting In shares and stakes?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You always insist We follow by your rules Whilst how you exist Don't seem to follow the same rules?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] Whatever you preach Are not put to practice Yet we're said to breach When we don't take them to notice?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You resort to violence When we're taught otherwise And you can seek God's forgiveness And we can't even seek yours? Cos' what is in fact Yours to blame Is our make That's how you so claimed?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] Whatever deeds you've done Bad or good Can be forgotten Or held up in engraved wood? Whilst when it comes to bad deeds of ours You'd bring it up Even the date and hours Collected unforgiveness in a metal cup? On the other hand Whatever good we've done Was never even Put to memory in your brains, none?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You claimed we were ignoring When you needed attention Yet you were away snoring When we needed medication?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You claim to be Such a perfect guy To friends and extended family When it's all a lie?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] You keep making promises That you never fulfill Leaving us with mere wishes Heaping up in hills?
[u][b]Why Dad...[/b][/u] Don't you take my suggestion To stop being such a peacock And do some reflection Instead of using the time on stocks? Stop blaming us For all your mistakes We're not stupid lasses Stupid's for your losing stakes!
Yeay~!!! Finally got a temp job! Man... It's the one that I went for the last day of interview, just last Thurs. Cool! 8)
Today... woke up at 1.30pm!!! -______-" [i]Bad bad[/i]...
Had a dream that caused me to cry in my sleep!!!
Man... can't really recall what made me cry though. Someone didn't trust me or something and took my money away... I don't know what to make of it :shock: But that someone was somebody close. Is that a warning or is there some hidden truth that I should learn from?
Sm was so nice today to give me call on a job offer she got :) Thanks gal!!! But, I didn't get the job cos' they wanted a Mandarin speaking person. Ahz~!!! Offered to let me email my resume to them so they can refer future jobs to me, but their email wasn't working!!! Ahz~!!! It's ok, I've got one already!!!
YEAY!!! My childhood dream of being a cashier will be coming true pretty soon! :) So exciting!!! Of course, as usual I shared my joy with the whole island~ [i]Well, almost[/i]...
Ok... had that favourite meal of mine again, today... Yuppies... ok... out of ideas... I'll continue tomorrow...
Wah~!!! Failed to wake up early again... Woke up at 11am! This is becoming an addiction :roll:
Then normal routines : got off bed, bathe, eat... Heex~ Finally become the first one to change bed sheets today :oops: cos' usually I'll be the last (i'm the laziest) :lol:
Waiting for my dear dude pal to msg me...
When I happened to just reach TPY Ctrl with my dear Mum and Sis... VOILA~! Dude msged me... O geez...
So I went back home after a half an hour's walk with Mum and Sis and packed all the possible white sheets that I had in mind of passing down to my dude pal's ownership... Took quite some time to get them all into a decent file and bags cos' I couldn't bear letting go... [i]Nostalgia nostalgia[/i]... Bleahx~! :b
Missed a bus (232), dragged the stuff all the way to another bus stop (238)... [b]Man, they were damn heavy~![/b]Reached TPY Ctrl again... 15min late from our promised time... :oops: Yeah, kept him waiting I guess...
Wow~! My dear dude pal has sure grown since I last saw him 2 years ago... [i]Envy envy[/i]... Rather handsome I must say~~~ [b][Wahahahax if u're reading this... it's a big compliment ley~~~][/b]
Yup... 4.15pm... I'll remember I was late... -____-" I'm always late... [i]O geee[/i]....
Oh well, yeah... Cute guy... :wink:
Met up with Mum and Sis.. Wandered around a bit... and headed home to misery again...
Tonight's was worse... That hatred's beginning to heighten just when I was floating with tranquility today... Especially after seeing an old friend... Yeah felt kinda happy... All that good feeling dissolved when I reached home... Good mood is dissipating right now...
Yeah... Failed to accomplish my-longed-for-mission today... I woke up at 11.00am instead of when the alarm had jolted me up at 9.00am... Oh well~
Hmm... Come to think of it, actually I just wanted to continue my dream.[i] Sigh[/i]... But when I returned to slumber land, my dream path had already changed!!! Man!!! Now I don't know what treasure lies ahead of my unaccomplished dream!!! :(
Yeah, slogged at home today again... Attempted to play "The Winner Takes It All-by ABBA" on my Clavinova yet again... At least I could start the song properly this time around :)
Then, I adored my pc yet again in the afternoon. [i]Bother[/i]... What else can I do? Thinking of setting up a webby but I've no idea what should the contents be about...
Yeah, so I lazed around as usual. Luckily didn't eat much today, or else...
Supposedly, dear dude pal was to collect notes from me. But I didn't hear from him, so it's postponed.
Chatted with dear Fed abit through sms. She should be back this coming Monday 8) Heex~!
Didn't really hear from the botak guys... Hope they're alright [i]*fingers crossed*[/i] lolx~
Made a few more job applications...
[i]Ponder ponder...[/i]How come no one seems to visit my bloggy... :? Sad but true... So I guess I'm all on my own then... Boring perhaps... Maybe I'll think of something...
Dad isn't cUrEd yet...
Hmmm... What should I do to bide my time by... Let's see...
[b][01.04.04][/b] Yeah my first successful attempt in planning a group outing~! Heex~! Yeah... 4 guys & 3 girls... Ain't so bad since I figured that the smaller the group, the better it would be. Why? Better interaction! Who disagrees with me, pls explain yourselves? -.-" But yeah, JT disagreed with me on that, early that week while I was still planning it. Still, he gave in and made himself present! 8) Heeee~ This is the power of girl persuasion [i]*evil grin*[/i] since even the almost impossible Hansel and mission-aborted-Kevin were also present!!!
:arrow: 1) JT said, "The more the merrier~" 2) Hansel always couldn't make it when I planned something, especially in the mornings... 3) Kevin initially had a big major date with a girl!
[b]*BIG GRIN*[/b]
But all 'twas well in the end... [i]I thought so[/i]...
As my instincts warned me, there had been last minute changes; the transport there, a present I wanted to get, checked out the job that sOmEoNe pestered me to go for, last minute addition of Alv in the group, etcetera...
Yeah, supposedly we were all to meet up at McD's at 5.00pm. Yup, me and Su were late cos' we had dropped by Suntec City first and then took our leisurely stroll around and reached the meeting place about 30min late! Heex~! Yeah, JT, Kev and Alv were the first to touch down... [i]ehem unexpected thou~...[/i]lol~ A while after me and Su arrived, Hansel did too (with a cap as I expected...lol)
Funny thou... I don't recall the other guys wearing caps... [i]Hmmm[/i]...
Oh well, then after some waiting, guys had some magic card games (as usual), entertained ourselves by exchanging mobiles, I suggested treating them to ice cream... But somehow, they insisted that I'd get the cheapest ones for them -______-" no matter how high my persuasion power was... I failed... Guys...
[b][Guys hate it when girls give them a treat! True or False?][/b]
Yeah... then more waiting and Kev went to fetch Shan some place nearby (she just knocked off work)
Then the final decision came: "Where to have dinner?"
Of all places, the guys actually wanted the McD's we were waiting at all that while~!!! So I suggested to go to this [i]Satay Club[/i]... Nearby, I thought...
Alas, we had to walk sOoOoOoOo far to get there!!! Man, I felt guilty the whole way since the guys were obviously hungry (their appetites are infinite~) and they were somehow rather sick of walking long distances... Yeah, they just booked out from torture camp for a one-week-holiday... I felt guilty man... :(
When we finally reached the destination that only I knew of (somehow Hansel knows about it too, I think), it was like paradise... Eat!!! Yeah... I felt relieved too that they liked the place :) [i]*phew*[/i]
Yup then went to hunt for food... Girls and guys hunted separately though... Then [i]we[/i] shared barbequed stingray to go with rice and I suggested to buy satay (40 sticks since guys have bIg appetites) and thinking it would be my treat...
Had been a great meal, I think... Thinking back, we did have our share of laughters and stuff, though I was a lil' quiet. Dunno why, but I just didn't feel like talking much that day (instincts weren't feeling too gd either)... Listening to the rest talk was just enough for me to feel somehow contented... [i]Sigh[/i]... Cos' after this coming Sunday, the guys will go back to their torture camps and I won't be seeing them around any longer. Dear Su's going back to Indo this Sunday (04.04.04) Shan will be working...
Yeah, kinda regretted we didn't have photos taken. But I had a small movie~!!! :D
Then after eating, chatting and Hansel's stories and quizzes, we walked to the sea side and took in some of the night scenery...aAaAah...
Then went to the cabby stand cos' Shan needed to get home for she had work the next day. Yeah... she got in with 3 of the guys, while me, Su and Hansel shared another cabby...
Geez...pretty scary though, since I was the last passenger to alight from the cabby!!! It was late at night!!! Scary... +_+
Still, I pestered all to msg me when they reached home~ Hahax~ Contradicting... Hansel did the same, pestered me to do the same to him when I reached home... [i]Awww...[/i]
[i][b]Will miss the guys...A pity, Fed wasn't around to be with us...[/b][/i]
Heex~!!! Black is nice after all. No, in fact black IS fabulous! 8) Yippees for me~!!! This time, I don't think I'll change my bloggy layout until it REALLY really REALLY bores my eyes... [i]*hopefully not*[/i]
By the way, today's been chilly in the early afternoon. Literally chilly, yes. The wind was oOoOoOo so chilly until of course it rained, and still remained chilly. Hahax... Seriously, if you're where I am right now at that time, it would have really lulled you to sleep. But hey, I've had enough sleep ([i]about 11hours? -_-")[/i] That's why I was busy redecorating my bloggy [b][i]*hopefully for the last time*[/i][/b].. I am never satisfied when it comes to things that involve colour, designs and art... Oh well, I'm an art freak? Or perhaps a perfectionist freak? Either way, suits me just fine~ Heex~! [i]Or maybe I was just too busy being idle?[/i] Duhz...
Today my mood wasn't so affected by you-know-who-in-the-house . Been okay since I had my favourite lunch! :arrow: [b]DIY french fries and fried eggs [/b][i](the ones with the whites surrounding one circle of yellows)[/i]!!! Yummmmmmmy~!
Practically stayed home throughout the whole day, idling, too lazy to even circle job ads, waiting for time to pass... Oh yea~!!! Finally, I actually made the effort to learn the process of cooking 1 of the household's favourite dish : [i]Ikan Masak Asam Pedas[/i]. Yup, maybe I'll really cook it and get into action when the opportunity comes by again. Heex~!!!
:arrow: [b][1st dish learnt: Ikan Masak Asam Pedas][/b]
Hmmm...still haven't passed my old notes to dear dude pal... Geez... I am so slow... Yeah... Been kinda bored lately, other than learning how to make [b]BLINKIES[/b] and [b]GIF AVATARS[/b]. Yeah... that explains why I suddenly wrote that paragraph on the RHS column and why my avatars changed to just 1 frame size! Smartey me~~~ O geez... :lol: Man, it took me quite an amount of effort but hey, I learnt something new!!! :D Chillin' it all out... Yeah man!!!
Kinda missed my buddies thou... O yea perhaps you still dunno why, since I didn't update on what happened those missing 7 days of bloggies... Heex! Hmmm... tomorrow lar ya~... The lazy-I-don't-care syndrome is getting to me again... :b So... I'll sign off here... Bed buggy bites~~~
[i]Hopefully I'll manage to turn off the alarm and [b]GET OFF [/b]the bed early the next morning...[/i] :oops:
Fabric of the nation... Some almost infinite number of cloths and stitch works, all sewn together to form some big quilts. Done last year by people from all ages and from all walks of life. It's finally displayed upon its completion today at HDB HUB... Heex! My dear Mum was ecstatic when she spotted the piece she made for my Sis' sch homework... :lol: Quite an honour I must say, to actually have your work displayed for all eyes 8)
Went job hunting today with Mum at Raffles Shopping Centre cos' it's the last day for that particular Robinson's walk-in-interview. Wonder if I was accepted... [i]Ponder ponder...[/i] Then wandered around back to TPY Ctrl...
Waited for Sis cos' happens so... DAD was home early today, so happened to be sick~~~ bleahx...
Yeah... wandered around and dropped by Popular and later wandered to tell Sis about her wonderful patchwork and then Mum got hungry, so we sat down at Padang's while she ate... Then yeah... went back home to face misery again... [b]ooooooooooo [/b]hate the feeling...
[b][i]Something's wrong with Dad... Real wrong...[/i][/b]
That explains why I was sooooo angry till' my mood to blog just ran out.
[b]GOOD NEWS~!!! [/b]Fed isn't going to further her Uni in Canada after all~~~ Heex!!! Yesterday lar, my dear Su shocked me with a misinterpretation of news... lolx Actually Fed's going to Canada only for a holiday with her bro! :D So relieved...
[b]GOOD NEWS~!!! [/b]Dear dude pal has a bloggy!!! Heex~! Helped him out abit... Now I've got another buddy blogger~~~ [i](I'm nuts right now...dunno y) [/i]
About what happened the last few days...well...I'll be back on that later lar ya...
[i]"Does money mean everything? Is money more important than us? Being calculative needlessly over money, is its worth more than our happiness?...Why..." [/i]--- I'm asking someone...
