I had been REALLY BUSY! That i had totally no time to blog coz i'm so shagged when i reached home. I just wanna bathe n sleep!
SO WARNING: The following post is gonna be LONG!
13/4
Morning, went tuition. Lol nth much to say abt this.
After tuition went to meet jess in town, to shop a little while coz she wanna buy her pumps. Haha, then after that took 105 back to ny(: For QGY(: Happy lehs(: So rched NY kinda early n we went to take our certs then to LT2(: Yan Jun lao shi was alr there, playing piano! haha so when we stepped in no one was there la, except wenleng! haha, so i listened to yj laoshi playing piano, so nice i wanna learn how to play with proper chords n blah! But i dunno how to read scores in bean sprouts ): So sad right T_T Then i started playing also, whatever that comes to my mind! Haha, after that e ppl started to stream in(like FINALLY)!!
Watched a video by exco! haha so cool! esp when there's our pics in it coz we've alr graduated! haha nice juniors(: All e memories flooding my mind as i was watching, coz they put synergy's pic too! Xmix(: I think its e best part of my JC life(: Srsly it was! (: Miss chilling with weijian, jess n e rest at mac! ): N blah a lot a lot a lot of stuff!
After that yj laoshi sang with renyi(: haha, she's got a nice voice, e co teachers are really a gang of very hip teachers and they communicate n share the thoughts of their students. Hard to find teachers that put students as the first in their list nowadays i guess!
Then we went back to CO rm for e veggie buffet! haha not that its all veggie, but its a vegetarian buffet(: Haha its kinda cool too, to eat smth that you dun usually eat! haha, n e food is really nt bad(:
Took photos n all, then left for the briefing! At tanah merahXD
N i was late again! Why can't I just get rid of this super irritating bad habit ): So met up with shuxin, wt n may! Then we managed to find our way to e kinda ulu place(: So yea. N briefing ended at 11plus! Its like OH MY GOODNESS! Its gonna be such a long way home can! N we've got private sales the nxt day!XD
So yea, took 31, rched home ard 12 plus. Bathed, n slpt.

And this with weijian while waiting for results on syf day(: He kept saying how cute he was after we took each shot. So i hear until i sian diao lol!
14/5, PRIVATE SALES
Woke up ard 6plus! Then got ready n blah blah blah! Met shuxin n yl at tpy interchange(: I was near punctual. N yes, near means, i'm still a little late! Then we reached orchard first, waited awhile for wt! N we dint realised ky was outside! haha n i haven seen her with her specs for very long alr! Haha cute la yan jie(: Then in the end, we waited for jess to reach then we go off tgt! Ding, selena, thamtham and may was alr outside too haha! Dint really expected it! But its okay, so yea, dispersed to our respective departments after hand punching(: N a busy day was just abt to commence!
For me, I started writing, pressing e calculator and giving out vouchers, LIKE NON STOP! So was really really busy! But initially was still kinda okay XD So everyone msging each other break times n all! so i got e same break as shiqing n yenleng(: Worked until lunch time(: I dint even realised! Time past damn fast that day srsly! I realised it was lunch time when i look up n saw qing waiting for me there! Haha, then after settling everything, saw yl also! haha, so three of us went to eat subway i think! haha, qing's feet alr a little cmi le! haha then she kept telling me how boy she looked that day! That girl is so cute la! Haha, okay, then crapped with her throughout lunch(: Talked to yl too, lol luckily they knew each other too(: After that poor us got to go back work again!
Saw shuxin going down e escalator when she's going for her lunch!! All sorts of customers n blah!
N srsly, I DUN BELIEVE THERE'S ECONOMIC DOWNTURN! OR at least i think it dint really affected e ppl shopping there that day. Unless if you put in that way-economic downturn that's why got sales everyone shopped like mad to save money in long term! So whatever it is, there are really really big spenders! Spending thousands n thousands of dollars on whatever merchandise!
BUT the highlight of the day was SOMEONE ACTUALLY SPENT A GD $63,788 ON COSMETICS ALONE! SRSLY WTH? But that girl does seems like a nice girl, coz she was patiently waiting while we counted for her, the 6000plus vouchers that she's entitled to!
So continued to bury my head in work, until I pop my head up n saw qing again! hahaha, then i realised OH DINNER(: Haha but dinner was at 4plus pm, like freaking early pls!!! So we dint really eat alr, coz it felt like we just eaten! N we still got e subway cookie that we dint managed to finish previously! So we went to mos burger, yl n i drank soup. Then three of us shared a big milk tea! Haha, i love crapping with qing! Some of her expressions are really classic! Lol, n her feet is feeling worse though! N she kept telling yl how easy for us to just sit there n keep writing! Lol!
So continued working! Started to regret for not eating dinner, coz my stomach growls like nobody's business when it was 7/8 plus pm! When it was 10pm, supposedly time to knock off, there are still ppl streaming in to collect their vouchers! Gd job lor these ppl! When its finally done, we started to tally up all e quantities n amt of vouchers we've given out! OMG IT WAS A TOTAL NIGHTMARE! XD So shuxin came over to find me, coz they're all done alr, so i told them to go back first! (We still have matrix race e nxt morning!)
Yup, then qing came over coz she wanna wait for xiaoshi! N she took a chair to sit down in front of me! N i was frustrated n vexed with e tally up work! Coz it was SO TROUBLESOME! N esp when things dun tally, its another rd of work to doXD Then just when i was like so ultimately sianned, qing started to play with e stamps! Haha she's like a kid having fun with his new bought toys! So curiosity took over her n she started to stamp on papers! Lol, i was like rolling my eyes at her, couldn't believe my eyes. Haha but i think its because i stamped until i wanna puke alr! zzz! Okay, so mood got a little btr with her funny actions! N finally it was all done at 11pm i think! So finally left isetan with ding, qing n xiaoshi! Ding left first coz selena waiting for her!
Went to e mrt station with e two of them, then jiejie n i wanna get drinks. Haha then we scared xiaoshi will miss her train so she left first. While we took our own sweet time to choose e drink! Settle on fruit tea, that qing dun really like in e end LOL! So we chatted a little bit n all! So yupp, waiting now for NXT MEET UP(: N oh yea, her feet, i think they were so dead at e end of e day that she alr couldn't walk properly! haha so rched home alr 12am again XD Bathed n used com awhile to find directions to MGS.
15/5, MATRIX RACE
We had to reach MGS at 6:30am. May called me, I picked up e phone. Opening my eyes, n saw e time, i dint jumped up from bed, just very feeling very sian n sick of myself. Coz my phone is nice enough to show me that the time is 6:30am! It was like omg la!! I woke up at 6:30am instead! So hurried n rushed through stuff, then chiong cab down! I think i waited 20mins for cab! XD Was so anxious laXD
So i reached ard 7:30am, like nt bad right! The cab fare also not bad! zzz! So whatever it was, walked super fast to e sports hall! Saw sx n wt! N we're supposed to get rdy n all alrXD I was still kinda blur abt wat's gonna happenXD So looked for arthur, n I ran after him as he showed me where e dance studio was.
After that i think shuxin got stung by a beeXD I can see a very small needle-like wound. So went to e toilet with her! Then we gotta give out e letters to e classes to start e event(: After e grps were rdy n all, we went to our respective stations(: I was at e freeze zone! Love e kids totally(: They're all so cute n awesome! Energetic, it was something that was so lacking from sec sch all e way up to JC. So i felt relighted by them. Hopefully this energy of theirs will not get killed, the way ours got! It was e upper pri's first. They were cute(: N i enjoyed every second with them(: Truly, I think places with kids' laughters and voices are really paradise(: They reminded you of things that you've long forgotten! They had e most energy and is most effective in lifting up your spirits that may alr be so weary after the many grown up days.
After the upper pri race ended, is the lower pri's turn(:
During the interval, we had a little debrief as to how to improve for e second race! Then after that when sx n i were left behind there, anne came to tok to us. N I totally knew how sx feels. N on my own, i dint really focus on wat was told to us. Coz i think, everyone really tend to impose their on ideas on others. Even the person advising us not to impose n let our own mindsets affect the kids, i think she's trying to impose her ideas on us too. N she totally dun get wat we're trying to say. So I doubt she sees e picture, n when i saw that, i couldn't bothered replying her. Just wanna let her finished wat she wanna say n then get down to e sec race, coz i know, its not gonna be fruitful even if we were to say anything more so whatever! Everyone has their own way of doing things n own mindsets. You may think you're right, but however, even if one does not do or think in your way, it doesn't mean he/she is wrong! Okay enough of this!
Thinking abt the lower pri excites me further(: They're all so small n tiny LOL. N even so, they're even more energetic than e upper pri at e very start of e briefing(: I was like telling shuxin while they were coming in, i wonder if they have facebook! Haha, then as we stood in front of 3.3 i think, e girls started to bombard us with questions! So cute la, kids' curiosity should not be so cruelly killed by sickening teachers and parents! Back to the girls, when I really couldn't take it i asked, so hey, you girls have facebook accounts? Hahaha, i wasn't really surprised to hear the yes-es, knowing that they lived in the era where they're exposed to such stuff since they were borned! haha but the confirmation to my question is still cool! For which, i dun even have msn when i was pri 3. Haha another girl suddenly asked if shuxin n i were sisters! hahaha
So for e lower pri, shuxin n i went to our stations much earlier! haha, she came over to e studio for a little while coz we're really really early(: Then awhile later e race started(: At first no one is at my station, so i played with e piano in e dance studio while e pv stood outside to see if there's ppl! Haha, so when e first group finally came, I brief them n we get started with e activities(: N that was when i decided i should start snapping photos! Lol, at the end of e day, the longest record created was 19mins(: By one grp of e upper pri. I think they're all great! Coz i doubt i can be so "frozen" for even 1/2 mins! haha
N another thing is, some parents nowadays is really dominating, so typical, exactly e same as how the parents in dramas acted. They may be with the gd intentions to want their kids to be the top, but they do it in the totally no-no way! They started to make decisions for their kids, so instead of leading their own lives, the kids are just puppets of their parents. In long term some may just become living creatures that take instructions instead of having a mind of their own, even as some may be able to break free from their parents' frames.
One parent that left e deepest impression was that when i said freeze, she was so very fierce to the kids, saying, "DON'T MOVE" (coz they're supposed to freeze there n not move), I mean, I noe she wans them to win n all, but still, not in this way. After that she turned to me, smile n then said, they nid to stay like that for how long? I answered that there was no limit! Then she was like okay three minutes enough alr coz they nid to get back to the finish line(they're gonna complete e race alr). So when three minutes was up, she said okay enough kids let's go let's go! They had no choice, but to move coz she's so dominating! Then she said, okay wait for me outside while i get the passport(score sheet actually).
I was like totally turned off! E objective is to have fun right, why made it so tensed up for the children! I think as the time goes by, its really not gd for e kids in whatever they do! So pls parents, reflect upon ur actions XD
After that there was briefing, at king's albert park, e mac there(: Stayed till ard 3:30pm, coz i was really late for work. So i took cab down to town! So sian! I hate spending on cab!
Then worked until night at isetan!!
16/5-17/5, ISETAN
Continued to work at isetan(: Full shifts for two days(: With ding n joyce! total love(: Esp when e ppl there are so nice too(: Was actually considering working at isetan on sunday! But its e supermarket that's hiring! So i'm nt that sure alr! Will discuss with ding ding abt that(: Sidetrack a bit: Wanting you asked for lobangs right lol! So u want work at supermarket not? Lol
Today went to sociology's interview. TOOK CAB AGAIN! zzz, i think i'm so sianned of NTU alrXD Written test first, then intervew. I think i'm dead once again! Forget it man. I shall just make plans for e worst!
每个人的心中都有属于自己的旋律,
只是当听到了其他人的主题曲,
往往就会忘了自己的声音,
想不起自己的歌曲,
然后失去了自我。
This is life@ 12:00 AM
