Movie Again!

Ha! I haven't been watching movies in the cinema for a while. Then now, this week alone, suddenly went for 2.

Watched Protege yesterday after work. Making the way down to watch the movie was sickening. The roads were blocked for the Chingay and there were just so much people standing around.

Movie was not too bad. Some parts which were quite gross were damn funny to me. Right... Perhaps I'm just sadistic. Muahaha!!

The hand being smashed off, it was just too clean la. Not convincing!
Its not the typical drug lord smuggling-kidnap kinda show. It was more like a story from the inside. See how they "made" drugs and stuff.

Daniel Wu looks damn hot! Even Andy Lau looked good when he had blood dripping from him when he was committing suicide.

Movieee

Yesterday was my off day.

Slept till bout 2pm. Wooots!!!
Its been a long time since I even slept till past 11am!

Anyway, was supposed to go back to my ex office to return a card. But before leaving the house, I decided to buy tickets for movie later.

Right... I'm so blur that Jav & Ch can't stand me. Hahaa... Why? Cause I actually booked the ticket at The Cathay when we actually agreed to go to the one at Cineleisure since it will be nearer.

Well, not entirely my fault ma. The system was experiencing some difficulties so I was trying to check for other locations and I forgot to change it back after that. Plus the timing for both cinemas were the same. So it sort of slipped my mind.

While waiting for Jav to finish work, I went back to ex office. Its like I still work there and I just help myself to drinks and whatever stuff. Haha...

Went to PS to makan. I got spotted by Hj! Such coincidence for her to spot me. Anyway, she joined us for dinner at Yoshi before going our seperate ways.

The 3 of us went to watch Norbit. Its damn funny show! Super nice show to relief stress. Hahaha...

Tau huay for dessert followed suit. Heh! I had some craving to satisfy. Yum yumm!

CNY Day 1 & 2

Happy New Year!

Its now the year of the Pig. How's eating bak kwa this year very hog-friendly?
I don't know, don't care. Bak kwa is nice!
Sorry hogs, you all are yummy! But very expensive!

Didn't really to that much visiting this year. Just the usual few relatives' places. Had quite a lot of yu sheng to eat.

Don't really seem to be in much of a festive mood leh. I don't know why.
Anyway, I'd rather go out with friends than visit relatives. Hahaha... The topics very much revolve around the same few each year. Every year, I hear the same comments or get asked the same things.
"You seemed to have lost weight?"
"Are you on a diet?"
"What are you doing now?"
Yada yada yadah...

Grace, Hj, Xl & Yl came over on the day 2. Gambled a bit. Didn't win that much lah. 2 bucks only. Hahaha... But for the fun lah.

Hmm.... Not much to update either.
=/

CNY Eve

Its Lunar New Year Eve!

Last night went ICB. We didn't even have to say what we wanted. It was just confirmed with us and I only added the wan ton cause had craving for some yummy crab sauce. Hahaha... Yehh... Chilli crab the other day wasn't exactly satisfying mah.

Anyway, today there's only one shift. I don't know whats up with the roster lah... Store only opens 7.5 hours but there are 3 full timers and 1 part timer. As if we'll get damn busy like that.

I brought my digi cam down and took some pics with fellow colleagues and friends from other brand's before store opened.

Ohhh.. Reunion dinner after that. I got to try driving around the estate. Well... Not familiar with the vehicle plus roads were narrow.

Dinner was super filling. Its lots of food leh! My gosh!

Anyway, after dinner's activity.

Valentine's Day

Yesterday was Valentine's Day. The day where you see loads of flowers, soft toys and other stuff being cradled in people's arms.

I didn't spend Vday alone.
Even though I had to work afternoon and do closing.
But that didn't really matter cause I know I'll have a nice meal after work.
Hee hee... =)


Viv arranged for me & Jav to go for supper. Seafood supper... Her treat!
We went to have seafood at this popular place in Geylang.
Kinda lost our way cause we weren't that sure of the location.

Slowly but surely, we found our way! Yayyy!!!
Ordered LOADS of food.

We had...
Bee hoon, vege, bamboo clams, cereal prawns, chilli crab!!!
May seem just like a few dishes only. But for 3 people, I think its quite a lot leh!

The food was alright only lah. Maybe the standard I was expecting was too high. I wasn't exactly satisfied with the food.
The bee hoon was so-so only.
Bamboo clams, I can't really compare cause I've never eaten it before but Jav said he'll bring us to another place next time for better ones.
Cereal prawns were ok but I think the one I get in JB is crispier and they're more generous with the cereal.
The chilli crab looks damn nice but the taste didn't do justice to the dish.
But.. But!! The sight of the vege was such a turn off, I didn't even eat one bit. The stems were so thick. If only they were longer, I would probably use it to poke the eyes of those ah pehs who were sitting/standing around when we were making our way to the place.


CH just came to talk cock and watch us eat, then share cab home with me. Hahaha...

Major Shopping Haul

Afternoon, went down to meet people during their lunch time. Supposed to accompany them, meaning wait for me then go eat lah. But apparently, by the time I reached, they were already done with lunch and asked me to go eat while they sit there and chit chat. Bo liao... I rather not eat.

Anyway, after that I went to take my photo for my driving license and was for time to pass to meet my babes.

While waiting for Yl, from 5pm till she knocks off at 6.15pm, I spent 200+ freaking buckaroos. 100 on clothes which are all black. Hj keeps nagging at me leh that whatever black stuff is DEFINITELY belonging to me. Nobody else would buy all black. Hahaha... My babe knows me sho well.

The other 100 bucks, well... spent on accessories. So pretty I just can't resist. Anyway, those I have, some see until sian already. I need a wider variety! Not really full 100 lah. Considering that I actually helped buy a pair of earrings for someone's other half.

Anyway finally Yl came, pulled me away from shopping and off to meet Grace, Hj & Xl. We had sushi for dinner. Then went around to do a lil shopping. Bought Grace her 'peanut' bag as her bday pressie.

We shopped till most shops closed. They wanted to go off already.
I made my way back to meet Jav & CH outside Taka. On the way there, I past this booth which sells jewellery boxes, and *ahem* I bought something from there.
Anyway, since most of the shops closed already, we just sat outside and chit chat. I received a cute bear keychain for Vday.
They actually threatened to smash the 'ugly duckling' I have hanging on my hp. My poor duckling. Got smashed twice already when I accidentally left it dangling out of the cupboard.
Why??? What has it done to offend them?

Over Hyped

Family dinner at Lau Pa Sat.

Bro is back from China.

Seriously, that place is over priced, over hyped but food below standard. Didn't like the way they touted for business. Its irritating.
I sure as hell know the cereal sotong sucked big time. Chilli crab don't tastes nice, very much like paste. If I wanted to eat paste, I would rather go ICB and order fried wan ton and get the crab sauce which tastes much closer to the actual chilli crab dish. The sambal stingray wasn't that sambalicious enough.
The rest of food was like so so only. There wasn't any particular item which made me go 'WOW!'.
To pay so much for this type of food standard, in a non aircon location, roadside to be exact, I'd rather go to a restaurant to dine.

Good Karma.. Haha

Being nice has its rewards.
Really!

My customer requested that I do her makeover for her cause she was gonna have her bday party. While I was doing her makeup, she kept on complaining.
But not about me. About the hair stylist. How he made her wait for so long then acted diva, insisted she get makeup done first and blah blah blah. Basically, she wasn't happy cause that made her rush.

Then after I was done and she had to redeem for her products, she was in such a rush that she shoved her card into my hands, asked me to pick whatever products I felt she should get and she'll come back after doing her hair to sign for it.
My gosh lah!!!

That is damn stressing lor. Imagine you only know a person for at most 2 hours, they chuck their card with you. Trusting that you won't misuse the card. Anyway I was supposed to knock off. Colleagues were willing to close the sale for me so that I could leave since I won't be able to claim OT.
But, I felt that wasn't right. Anyway, I'm not that gian lui. I was also told that I shouldn't attend to customers since it was not necessary as the rest were free. Fine lor... I went round to other brands and chit chat while waiting for my customer to come back. Hahahaa...
So when the customer came back, she was still quite unhappy with the hair stylist but this time was because she was made to look tai tai. So since she was happy with how I made her up, she tipped me lah. Whatever amount she tipped, was better than claiming OT.
Damn lucky I waited. Imagine if I didn't. Not only I won't get the tip, she'll get the impression that I don't finish a sale properly.

Anyway, after work, went with LM, Jav & CH. Supposed to go ride the hot air balloon thingy. But too bad lah, wind conditions weren't to our advantage. The ride was considered unsafe because the winds were too strong. Darn it lah... We were all like excited bout the ride lor.
Headed for dinner without LM cause she had to head home. Dinner wasn't nice and yet overpriced.

Training

Had a full day of training back at Grand Corpthone today.

Was quite interesting. Basically, breakfast then training, lunch then hands on, tea then games. The lunch was pretty good. My choice of fish was yummy. The tea break was nice cause got alot of nice sandwiches. Haha...

The games was just cheonging to answer questions so that can win prizes. So happen that the game was to test us on skincare which me & Jav were on the same team and were expected to do well cause we won the skincare competition thingy. A bit stressed... Hahaha... But who cares, in the end our team won too.

Anyway, after training, went down to FEP to shop with Jav, Chantel & Wy. Suddenly the in-thing was locks & keys. I don't know why... A quarter of BB's staff are like crazy over the bling lah. Its madness.

The 2 of them left, leaving me and Jav to meet up with CH. My goshhh... The two of them are idiots in their own rights. Suanning was fun cause they don't get pissed.

Didn't buy that much stuff cause we've quite a lot of items from the training already. Hee...
Lovely!

BB's CNY Reunion Dinner

Was held at Grand Corpthone last night.

Worked morning and left with LM staff. The stupid security gave them damn a lot of trouble. So we were kinda rushing to the taxi stand. My digi's batt died. So timely... I had to go get new ones.
Walked past CH who was day dreaming way.

Me: Psssstt!
CH looked up... 2 seconds later (thinking it was a customer): Hi...
CH 3 seconds later: Ehh? Babe!! Couldn't recognize you lah. You look so different!
Muahaha... Reaction damn bloody slow.

Anyway, the taxi driver also damn screwed up. He drove us the wrong way, heading to a different hotel and still can say that he was right and we said wrongly. Right... 3 people heard what venue Val specifically said and how can all hear wrongly?

Dinner was rather nice. First up was lou hei.
Its a seriously messy dish. Hahaa...

Driving & My Haircut

The day before I had my last revision lesson before the big day. It was quite shit lah. I mounted curb. Hahaha... My instructor was saying its ok since I haven't been mounting curbs during other lessons so maybe just sway.

I had my driving test yesterday. The warm up session was a total rush. I had to wait quite a while to each of the circuit. That left me with not much time for road driving. Had to try a lot of shortcuts which weren't in any of the test routes at all. The road traffic was rather heavy. Everything seemed very negative.

Then driving test...
First up, was the slope. I rolled back.
Tried again, and I rolled back again.
Third time, I accelerated so much that it was so loud and yet I still rolled back that the other test car also doing slope in the opposite direction just kept on looking and wondering.

Anyway, I didn't know how I managed to realize that I was rolling back because I was still in gear 2. Was it the instructor who told me or I saw it. Can't remember... Too kan cheong already. So when I drove down the slope, was supposed to turn and there was a stop line.

I forgot to stop until I don't know whether I was damn near the line or touch the line or past the line. Sort of braked damn hard but wasn't hard enough to come to complete stop (I think!). So if I'm not wrong, I could have just rolled over the line.
So if I just rolled over, it was an immediate failure already.
I don't know!!! My mind was in a blank state already.
I didn't even know if I should action action check blind spots and stuff cause the circuit was empty except for test cars. It was the interval between sessions so there weren't any cars around.

The tester was damn silent. Just ask me to do other circuit courses and out onto road. I thought he just wanted to kill time cause they still have to let the testee go through the whole test and they have to give the points despite immediate failure.

While on the road, I was driving damn slow lah. Anyway I assumed I failed, so couldn't really be bothered. Then on the way back, the tester started whistling...
Was he really that bored cause I was taking my time to drive back?
Or is he in a good mood today? Is there a chance to pass me?

Before he handed me my results slip, he sounded quite disappointed.
Tester: "Your slope ar.. You move off wrong gear, keep rolling back. The rest quite ok."
Me (thinking...) "Die lah... When do I have to come back for retest?"
Tester: "Take this and bring to the counter to get your book and go up watch video."
Me (thinking...) "Video? VIDEO?? Means pass already??"
I took back the paper and saw the tick at "PASSED".

Wheeee... I was so happy that I didn't off the engine, I happily just opened the door and one foot out already.

Right... I know I'm blur lah. Even my dear friends know that too. Some of the conversation or replies when I sms to say I've passed.
"This is your number what attempt?"
"You sure the tester in right state of mind?"
"You so blur, still can pass first time?"
"Sure or notttttt.....????"

Oei friends... Don't like that leh...
I ain't that bad lah... Can be quite zhai one ok.


Anyway, went to have a hair cut + color. Wanted a change of style. But wasn't sure what style I wanted. Left it to the stylist to do everything for me. His assistant was rather cute leh, especially when he smiles. Hee hee...
He said I should smile more... and described me with some chinese word which means ice queen or elusive or mysterious to a certain degree I think. I don't know, my chinese sucks.

So after I finished, waited for Jav & CH to end work. But I insisted no ICB this time cause I want my newly cut hair to remain free of smoke smell. Hahahaha... Bimbotic.
CH damn bo liao... Kept on saying my eyes very mi ren. Told him its how I draw my eyeliner else it looks sleepy and a bit droopy. But he insists its not and its the big eyes which are alluring.
We were on this topic for a good whole 5 minutes while waiting for our maggi goreng to come.

I Threw My HP Away...

...

...

...

Or so I thought lah...

Actually I didn't. I just happened to give myself a super super big scare.


Ohh anyway, I'm still not able to talk much to customers. Though its better than yesterday when I couldn't even bother talking.

A new part timer came and I was to show her where the stuff are kept and what to do blah blah. It was her first day and I, as a not that new but definitely not senior staff, had to brief/train her. My voice was like crap lah. Sore and hoarse still.
Anyway was like super bored lah. I went to disturb the one who said I sounded like a man, to see if I still sounded like a manly or not. Hahaha!

Ok so back to how I gave myself a shock. I stayed back to help out cause part timer's first day. I need to cover a bit longer. Then before knocking off, I was at the cashier and I kept on bugging one of them to add lip gloss to her lipstick color for a touch of sexiness. Heh heh...
Yeh I'm like that lah... Would sometimes go there ask them to add this, do that to get what look blah blah blah.
All sorts of rubbish from me when I'm working. =P

So after I was done, I took lift up and was finishing my orange juice. Came out from the lift and I was downed everything. I just took the bag and threw it away without checking.

Only after walking to next building and wanted to sms did i realized my hp wasn't with me.
Ahhh... Kan cheong, kan cheong...

Walked back to counter and wanted to use the phone to call my phone. I walked damn fast cause too sick to run. The walk seemed like forever. Then when I reached the counter and wanted to take the phone, then I saw my phone lying next to it.
Henggggg ahhhhh....!

They said I must be too sick till brain fried and cannot think properly.
Hahahaha....

Pain Throat

My throat was hurting. Even swallowing saliva or drinking water was pain.
My voice was leading the same fate, and sounded like crap lah.
Voice half gone already never mind, the remaining half was very hoarse.
The mean one (the one who loves disturbing me) at the counter said I sounded like a man.
Nabei... -_-"
Evil lor.

No mood to work. Can't be bothered to serve customers. I sort of let them cheong the sales lah. Anyway couldn't talk also. Better to let them do the talking. Then I'll be like clearing their places and key in their sales after that.

Kk... Sleep time. Haha... No mood to blog. =P

Sicko

It really sucks to be sick lah!
Yesterday, no mood to work at all.
I woke up with extremely puffy eyes. You just can't imagine how puffy it was. Me being single eyelid suddenly had double. That was how bad it was. It was like having water retention x 10!
I was feeling bloated all over. Like someone just shoved a pipe into my mouth and made me swallow lots of water.
My nose was running a marathon. The nostrils seemed to be having a competition on who could run more and faster.
My skin felt extremely dry to the extend of slightly rough. Piling on the moisturizer didn't really help much.
Felt quite terrible.
Couldn't concentrate.
I must have irritated my fellow colleagues with all my whining that I felt cold and hot, wanna pluck out my nose, blah blah blah.

Vivian asked if I wanted to take MC.
Gladly!

Has been quite some time since I took MC. Took cab back cause I was feeling like crap and didn't want to take public transport.

Came home and napped away the evening, till night, till daybreak. Felt extremely weak to move.

Supposed to have driving this morning, but I was too weak to go. Could get up but felt tired easily. Dad said if I can't take it then I shouldn't go. I didn't really wanna waste the money, so I went to take a shower and prepare to leave. But slowly, my legs felt wobbly. My eyes were hardly able to open. So I went back to sleep again, no choice but to forfeit the lesson.

Woke up to go for the M.A.C. sale. Didn't really wanna go already but since I've already promised LM to go, its not nice to back out cause I know she really wanted to go.
Amazingly, I didn't buy anything. Yeh, you read it right, I didn't spend a single cent during the sale.
Cannot lah! I just submitted my staff purchase form. Anyway, I've more than enough makeup to last me for a while.

Felt like dying already lah... I was so lethargic and restless at the sale. All I wanted to do was take a cab home and rest. I was supposed to go for another driving lesson. Apparently I wanted to sell that off. But nobody wanted that slot. So, if I don't go, it will be wasted again.
Cannot waste 2 lessons in a day! By hook or by crook, I must get through with it.

I was really stoned during the driving. But lucky this instructor has the habit of prompting every move.

Okie... Its time to sleep again. =)
I think I should rest more.
