dedicated to cherlyn:






i seem to find this somewhat similar to the situation below in ms cherlyn's post. hahahahaha!!!!!

let me re-enact the situation:

1)she is unsure of a question
2)goes into panic mode *alert!
3)takes out everything related to the subject
4)ignores the presence of her horrified sister staring at her behaviour
5)look through the sea of papers for roughly one minute
6)says: " goodnight corrine ".

hehehe. :p

ok back to my life. this week's been pretty good i must say. no need to go back office from mon-wed. totally shiok please. plus twan had off day till tues so it was :)

giving tuition on a very frequent basis lately. to the same sec 4 kid. made me feel like a useful human being at least. heheh. just taught tuition in the morning till 12pm. and slacking around since then.

sometimes i feel that i should just stop trying to occupy myself with too many stuff. as in i try to pack my days with something to do most of the time. but i realise that relaxing and having solid alone time can really get my mind off things. in other words having nothin planned for the day and just doing things on an impromptu basis :P

just finished watching "save the last dance". nice show :) dont know what to do now again. haha. not complaining though. i shall go read something.

today was an action packed day. totally ZERO monday blues for me cos i took leave from work.
day started with me running the serangoon park connector route for the second time, although i told myself the first time that it would be my first and last time doing it. hehe. but it was a good one, celebrate my freedom on a monday. :)

after that i gave tuition. and my student's mom wants me to teach him chemistry too. and she was suggesting 2h for e-maths, 2h for a-maths and another 2h of chemistry all packed per week! i was like O.o gd money i dont deny but kinda extreme. haha. but anw, she was only suggesting and she told me to discuss with her son. but i can sense he seems rather sian. life of a singaporean student... sec 4 only, still got long way more to go man. ohwell. most prob will do 2h of maths together and another 2h of chem, thats if he is free tooo.

lunch was awesome i swear. popular wanton mee @ the coffee shop. omg v v v v v shiok. i dont know how they make the noodles so springy and firm. soup was gd, not much MSG cos i didn't felt thirsty after that. had lunch with Ms Clarissa Tan :)))) great company, i cant believe time flies so fast, its been what.. 4 or 5 years since we were secondary school mates. rmbr the times we mug together for O-levels. so sloggish. hahaha

then we headed off to her house for movie marathon and snacked on shiok macadamia, peccimon, almonds, digestives, magnolia milk. quite a feast. and ystd she even told me her house NO FOOD AT ALL. i was like?!!! haha. her food = proper food. but she has lotsa snacks. hehehe. enjoyed myself to the max, nvr felt so carefree since i start working.

so with that, i officially end my action-packed day. now waiting for 9pm to watch the channel 8 show. wearing new unform for work tmr!!!! excited cos it beats the samsui women uniform. whoo.

i cant wait for wednesday, Mr. Twan is coming back. :D

I NEED AN OUTLET YET I HAVE NO ONE TO TALK TO. sharin have gone to watch the all blacks game (rugby game) and i know i have to study for cels exam which is on monday! terror. BUT GUESS WHAT... i actually went to try out for a waitressing job.

was totally being a dumb ass. the story goes like this. i actually submitted my resume at a place called chopsticks. apparently the boss also owns another dim sum restaurant called golden harvest. she rang me up right after my 3 freaking hr hubs exam...of which i was totally in a state of deliriousy...whatever its called. yeh so i told her i can only come after my exams which is the 22nd. but u guys shud noe...im damn impatient. so i texted her back to tell her that i can come the day after...which is today...to try things out. i caught her saying golden harvest....ok. so this morning...at 940am i took a slow walk to the restuarant and realised that it was called chopsticks....(dont call me a dumb ass....it just shows how long ago i submitted my resume and how long it took her to get back to me.) so... fine... i just went in and asked the man inside if she knew the boss..then he said ya....so i just went in and was instructed to do lotsa SAI GANG. it started with vacumming, wiping stuff and then using the cash machine. then started cutting crab stick. gosh. then at 11am...the first customer came. gosh...it was like A GOOD LOOKING GUY SOMEMORE.... gosh. cute... random pple here can be good looking la... gosh.

then the boss called the man and damn...i was suppose to be at the restaurant and not this eatery (rmbr that she owns two stuff...one eatery and one restuarant. so the man brought me over to the restauarant and guess wat...!!!! EVERYONE THERE CANT REALLY SPEAK ENGLISH...THEY CAN ONLY SPEAK CHINESE. i felt so displaced... but it was action pack...dim sum galore. gosh.....i miss dim sum so mucccchhhhh!!!!! there was char siew so and egg tart. gosh i was so high la...i keep talking to my fellow collegues but they cant understand me cos i kept talking in english. they kept talking to me in chinese of which i can understand but i kept replying in english of which they cant really get...gosh. communication breakdown man. GOSH. but i managed to nail it

then the boss keep wanting to schedule me in for the next day. of which will be 1st july cos i alr made plans for the june hols. im not going to rot in cumby. she keep saying have to schedule me in evening shifts cos got more local pple in the evening. I REALLY MISS STB JOB AT THIS POINT IN TIIIIIIMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEE. i have been so drilled to promote promote promote. and guess what...there are so many chances to push for the dim sum....just talk some cock i believe can push for more dim sum la...i miss promoting and talking cock so much. but i cant promote to asians cos they keep speaking in chinese. so im looking forward to nailing the local pple.....gosh i miss everything not related to studying.

when it was nearing my shift,,,the supervisor asked me what i want. SO RANDOM. what what i want??? he actually meant what i want for lunch...the chef will cook for me!!!!!!!!! i was so damn excited....but realised only can choose between fried rice or zhu chang fen. so i choose zhu chang fen...then the supervisor said that it was too little and that he will get the chef to cook fried rice too. so at the end of shift i saw two big plates of food on the table. gosh. only decided to eat the zhu chang fen which was the suckiest zhu chang fen EVER. gosh pple even order that....cant believe it.

anw im looking forward to knowing all the dishes on the menu so that i can promote the dishes. wish the chef can cook everything on the menu so i can try everythin..

aft my shift i got my first pay. 32bucks. bout 9 bucks per hr. then i kept talking to the boss....i just cant stop talking!!!!! gosh. guess she could not stand me...cos firstly i was talking in english and next...she was busy. and i was talking crap cos i kept asking her bout what she's gonna do in the june hol. im damn insane la...i can talk to anyone on the street like right here right now. i dont care...i NEED TO TALK. gosh.

i have to study cels now. im highly stressed cos i have 30 lectures to jam into my puny brain. i know the technique to bio alr...but its a major feat thats v scary....!!! ah.

ok enough of my rambling..... I NEED TO BRUSH UP MY CHINESE. I NEED TO PROMOTE. I NEED TO TALK. GOSH. I CAN JUST TALK LIKE NON STOP.

gdbye while i go back to silent studying for cels!

i took leave yet again.

cant believe its just four more working days. thurs and fri of next two weeks and i am OUT.

WHOOHOO. and then another higher paying, definitely more interesting job waiting for me. for now, very excited for the return of mr.twan!!!!!! he's coming back next wednesday. hopefully dont have to get quarrantined man.

i feel less burdened now, knowing that i dont have to wake up so damn early tmr morning, practically dragging myself out of bed most of the time. where did my motivation go to once again? grrrrr.

oh and did i mention that my most impt motivation currently to go to work is GONE. cos the staff swimming pool is closed for repair for... 2 MONTHs. gosh. lucky i wont be working much longer there alr. i usually go there to swim during lunch, and time will really fly pass very fast. if not, time really crawls during lunch time. i can finish my food in like 5 mins?... alone. sad right? sighhh.

i will not concede defeat just like that, for my next job, bring it on. but u cant blame me for behaving this way, its because i am really too boredddd. i envision my work life to be filled with challenges, such that time will flyy. and make me feel worth it.

out.

currently home. on a weekday. u might be wondering.. whyyy?

past 2 days i was left on my own with absolutely no work related things to do. so basically i was sitting in the office doing my own stuff and getting paid. and after 2 days, i really couldn't take it. my supervisor told me that she is trying to arrange on-field-work for me but only can confirm for next week. which means today and tmr i also should be have nth to do.

so i sms-ed her that i wouldn't be reporting to work till there's work for me to do. i dont find this unreasonable on my part because its really not right for them to pay me when there's no need to. how righteous of me right? LOL. apparently, i completed 2 months work of work in 2 days. huge underestimation man. grrr.

yea. not anyone's fault. oh well. i have no motivation to do anything alr. i just wanna laze around and do things i wanna do w/o having to care about this and that and everything. afterall, my timetable planning has officially started. makes me dread the start of school all of a sudden.

seeing those modules and the exam dates. oh man. and i realise that my exam is last week of nov to first week of dec. cherlyn ho is coming back third week of nov! so she'll come back to see her shrivelled up sister mugging for exams. hahahah! i wanna prevent that so i am going to do my revision v consistently and definitely no last minute shit from me. not my style. hahahah.

yea. planning of timetable is giving me quite a headache. i really dont know what electives to take. i'm basing 51%of my choice on whether the module fits into my schedule. haha. i dont know why there's this v determined spirit in me to wanna accomplish things my way. and that i wont wanna succumb myself to some sort of disadvantage. can anyone explain this charateristic?

is it self-love? haha! i dont know but that spirit drives me on. for now, directionless in the aspect of work. sometimes i just wish i'm away from all these work-woes. the dilemma of wanting to work but degenerated by the mundanity of it all. encountered this situation on 2 jobs i had. this, and the other one at a law firm. i sailed through my tuition centre job and SVC job though :D

so tired of bothering about all these work alr. if i had a chance, i would really wanna fly down to NZ to visit my sister. thinking 23 June after her exams. but my mom hasn't confirm with me, yet alone discuss with cherlyn cos she is having exams. missing her. and also missing twan.

double whammy. not good. haha. on the lighter side of things, my student told me she did well for her exams. :D happy for her.

getting rather random. i'm offf! ;)
