hungry?

Ok, this is gonna be more photos than words 'coz I have to go sleep soon! It's the first time I ate the super big burger at Billy Bombers!! Yummy..


Their very super nice milkshake which I always drink when I go there!! It got abit spilt thanks to me and while Jace was sitting there having dirty thoughts I decided it looked kinda artistic so first photo of the day taken!


The super big super yummy All-Star burger! I know it looks abit icky 'coz of the reddish stuff but that's just abit of blood 'coz the beef was apparently not as medium as we wanted it to be.. But still nice though! We also had soup and garlic bread but I didn't feel like taking pictures of that. I wanted to order more but lucky Jace stopped me 'coz we were damn FULL after that lor! Bumped into 2 of my ex-classmates!! Actually they were sitting just next to us all along but I didn't even notice till they came over to say hi. Talked awhile about school and stuff, had to try to keep the conversation short 'coz Jace was like bored stiff. I MISS KC!! =( Can't wait for the old school party that Angele and Ian are throwing!!

zhi lian time!!

so fucking pissed!!

Argh!! I've been wanting to blog about my bullshit 'customers' for very very long already so it's time to let it all out now! Today the customers really made my blood boil so I shall just bitch abit then go off for dinner.

Ok, first thing you all should know is.. We have to key in the nationalities of customers in codes, so we alwayz talk about them in codes. The worst customers are 21, 22 and 31. Let's play a game.. Later after I finish bitching you all can start guessing which code is which nationality k!

21 : They usually come in BIG groups of like 7 or more and usually all ladies. Once they step into the shop, it becomes a damn marketplace. All of them want your attention at once. They think like you can actually split yourself into 7 people lah. Even if you're serving their friend they will rudely interrupt and ask you to convert every single thing into their currency for them. 21s also just love asking for discounts and free gifts. And after I serve them I feel exhausted 'coz I have to speak their language. Yesterday one woman from this country pissed me off 'coz she took like 3 eye creams and one perfume making me so happy 'coz it was like my first bill, but when she reached the cashier she put everything back 'coz that stupid bitch thought the prices were in her currency which is ridiculous if you knew what her currency is lah!! PLUS I told her the prices were in Singapore dollars. Maybe my chinese just not good enough lah ah.. Oops, did I just give away their nationality?

31 : 31s are alright compared to 21s and 22s, but they just love comparing prices to those bargain stores like Mustafa and those small perfumes shops in Lucky Plaza.. Plus some of them are cheapskates. Usually they don't give me trouble but today.. This guy pissed me off the most!! He managed to make me so riled up that I decided to blog this entry. First ah, say he looking for ladies perfume. Then he added the words cheap, miniature and below $50. Luckily for him, I so nicely managed to find one set that's actually quite good for that price. Then, he said he wanted a guy's perfume too. For himself. So obviously I try to push my new Polo Black which I myself think is nice lah. First thing he say is, " Wah, so expensive ah!" even before I let him try the smell, so never mind lah, I just asked him which one he wanted. Then he told me Boss. One thing about Hugo Boss perfumes, even though they are popular, they are really cheap compared to other brands. It's like CK perfume, also very popular but very cheap lor. Usually these 2 are the brands 22s who are living in 31 go for.

Ok.. Anyway, so we went over to the Hugo Boss gondola. Guess what he took? A deodorant stick. Seriously! He thought it was a fragrance!!! Just 'coz the price ($26.40) attracted him!! A lot of dumb people have mistaken the prices before, even though on the price ticketing it clearly states DEO STK, but no one has been so fucking dumb to actually think a deodorant stick IS a perfume. He held up the deodorant and asked me, " The perfume is inside here just that it's smaller right?" I swear I was stunned for a moment. Quite amazing how some people can be so stupid.. I looked at him abit unbelievably and and told him what it really is. I mean, it looks like a deodorant stick, it's written that it's a deodorant stick and it's definitely PRICED like a deodorant stick.. So I kinda felt like I was wasting my breath just telling him what it was.. THEN YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IDIOT DID??? This is almost laughable if I wasn't so mad! He picked up a deodorant SPRAY and asked me whether that was perfume!!!! OMG lor! How come Singapore also got this kinda stupid people?!!! (ok i know i divulged the country again but i'm too agitated to care) I tried not to make it too obvious that I thought he was stupid but I think it was written all over my face. Plus I have to admit my tone was abit condescending, but considering the situation, I think I was already very nice. So when I showed him the actual perfume which was just like next to the deodorants, that blind idiot asked me why it was so ex!! *breathe in, breathe out* When I told him it's already much cheaper than outside, he told me he already had one at home and didn't wanna bring it out 'coz he scared not able to get through customs.

Oh yah, let me side track abit to explain. For the past few days, people going to US or UK have not been allowed to purchase perfumes, lotions, gels or even lipsticks! Just 'coz of that stupid bomb threat which made the police/government/whoever is in charge of that so scared that people might use the items to make a bomb on the plane or something. I think it's dumb and irrevelant lor. I don't think not being able to buy a small bottle of perfume will deter a terrorist much. Ya, like, he (i'm assuming its a he 'coz aren't they usually men? women are nicer people) comes to the shop, we don't let him buy the perfume, then he goes running back to his terrorist friends and says, " That mean woman at the shop won't allow me to buy perfume, so let's just call off our bombing plan." Stupid lor. But I'm still very scared the airport will get bombed!! I'm such a kiasi person so working at airport during this period is abit terrifying for me. Lolz.

So, back to that stupid ass guy. He was going to THAILAND lor. The perfume ban had nothing to do with him.. Give me this kinda lame excuse. He then asked me where are the cheapest perfumes then I just showed him our 'bargain corner' which is where we usually bring people who are cheapskates. Mostly those ulu brand no one know kind, but got like one or two not bad one such as CK. I showed him the CK one he said not nice. Fuck lor, want cheap still want good, and I actually think CK Crave is pretty good, then still wanna be choosy!! Instead, he asked me for the tester for some stupid Elizabeth Taylor perfume, which we didn't have, and he arrogantly said," Then open one lah! How you all going to sell if no tester?" I had to clasp my hands to stop myself from reaching out and slapping that stupid fat face of his. It's like only $39 and you want me to open a tester specially for you? He probably wouldn't have bought it anyway.

So I was losing my patience and the shop was getting more crowded so I went to serve other people then like ten minutes later went back to him 'coz he was still holding my miniature set. That's when he told me he trying to make his purchases up to $125 for the airport lucky draw. I was like thinking to myself," Wtf? You wanna choose everything so cheap it'll be days before you can reach $125 at the rate you're going lor." After that he asked me for Shiseido which we only carried at our bigger shop. And when I told him he said he'd get the miniature there too, which I kinda expected, but by then I was so pissed I just wanted to take the box of miniatures and knock his brainless head! That was like one of the worst Singaporeans I ever served. Actually sometimes I think we should be glad there are 21s and 22s if not we'll be the worst nationality already.

22 : Usually the 22s who come in are guys. And they have 2 favourite words. Show me. And almost everytime ask for cheap and good. Today 2 guys walked in and was looking at Armani, which is also under my brand, so I started telling them that if they buy 2 bottles they get a free bag. So one of them said, " Show me." So I went into our small storeroom and started searching everywhere for the bag. I really searched so hard it was like a mini workout! And when I came out the 2 stupid guys left!! Damn damn pissed.

So ya, now you all can start guessing who are the 22s.. Hehe.. Keke.. So much for bitching abit.. Then I shall not complain about my job again anytime soon k? 'Coz I might be quitting soon anyway!! Soon meaning sometime early next year maybe?

do you believe in happily ever after?

I had a nightmare 2 nights ago. Not those scary kind like about ghosts and the undead, but the emotional kind about.. people. In the dream I was so mad and upset I kept wanting to hit someone but my arms just felt heavy. And I had that irritating just-got-punched-in-the-stomach feeling. When I woke up I wanted to reach out, but this time there was no one there. I hate dreams. It's like you can preoccupy your mind with so much shit during the day and at night you still dream of the one thing you try not to think about. Argh.

Anyway, finally watched <The Lake House> last night. It's illogical (alot of things that happened in the past should only have happened because of what happened in the future. it's like <The Butterfly Effect>, they showed things happening in the past that only would have happened if something from the future made it that way. if you all get what i mean. and i think even that show was more logical.) and I kinda knew what happened from the start (it's like so obvious the guy who got knocked down was him lor. and makes it even more illogical 'coz she would've known his name what.), but it's still super sweet and romantic and just gave me that feeling that I knew I was gonna have from the moment I watched the trailer. I can't help it. I'm a sucker for romance. Typical Libran. It's funny how I still believe in love and dream of the perfect fairy-tale romance. Lolz.

Also went to Ana's house in WOODLANDS(!!!) yesterday for her son's birthday. Was with another colleague, and on the way there she was telling me about how sweet her boyfriend is but she just can't bring herself to fully trust him, so she goes out with other guys at the same time. Which I feel might be right or wrong depending on how sincere the guy is. You see, it's hard to tell nowadays, when everyone is just like sugar-coating their words, or lying through their teeth, or telling you that they miss you. And probably sending it to like 50 other people. So we end up doing the same thing to protect ourselves. I told her it would be good to actually have back-ups, but what if her boyfriend was sincere? Wouldn't she be risking losing something good for fear of getting hurt? Actually I also dunno what I would do. To be open and risk getting hurt or just be a bitch and risk hurting someone who really loves you? Hmm.

And the cycle would just go on if everybody who has been hurt becomes a bastard or bitch, infecting the next person they hurt, who would in turn hurt other people. Lolz. Vicious cycle. Like zombies. Or vampires. Which I actually kinda like..

Oh ya, did I forget to mention that I DYED MY HAIR!!!!! I also put on so much weight and had so little sleep I look almost unrecognisable but ya, I DYED MY HAIR!! Hee.

Light brown with gold highlights.. Can see???

me : then and now

A few years ago there was this guy that I liked. We went out one day and he kissed me. I thought that things were gonna develop from there but it didn't. And I was really upset, maybe even heartbroken. And that was just a kiss.

I feel that I'm so much stronger now. Things like that don't affect me as much as they did last time. Of 'coz, I still feel a tiny tinge of hurt but that's it. So I guess I've successfully managed to build that invisible wall around me. I just feel that if I was still the last time me I would be an emotional wreck right now. I guess.. I'm just really glad that I'm not like that anymore.

'Coz guys are bastards. Even my guy friends (Yes, more than one) can tell me that guys are bastards, so how am I supposed to not turn to girls? It's just like a wake up call to me.

Anyway, just came back from Partyworld with Jasmin and her boyfriend, Irene and her boyfriend and Sherlyn. Very fun! It's been like, 6 mths plus, that I've been to a ktv.. Made me feel like going more often. Though that I'd be sad but I really enjoyed myself with them!! But chinese songs are really sad. Dunno why. Lolz. Just the tune and lyrics I guess..

Went to chill at Mc Cafe and played pool with Gary yesterday. Kept talking about last time and the #98.7fm peeps. I miss those times man!! We went out almost everyday.. Play pool, watch movies, play Quake.. Lolz.. So fun lor. Nostalgic. Now everybody's busy with their own lives.

Hmm. Guess things really do change with time. But friends will still be friends. Forever. So just wanna tell you guys I love all of you k!! >_<

P.S: I love blogger's recover post option!!! If it wasn't for that I'd have to type all this over again and that would not only be a waste of my time but also won't be as good as the original. Plus, my memory sucks.

I SAW MISCHA BARTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES!!FROM THE OC!!omg omg omg!!she was in the shop when i was doing ot and i didn't even realise it lor!!at first, i wanted to serve her, then realised she's my colleagues customer so i walked away to serve someone else. then like 5 mins later, the cashier was like saying," mischa barton just walked off." then i was like," OMG!! WHERE??? WHY YOU NEVER SAY EARLIER?!!!! WHERE WHERE WHERE???" then she just like walked past the shop again and we were all staring at her and she actually waved!

picture time~

Guess what? I'm not at work. I overslept!! I was like supposed to start work at 7am and I work up at 11.30am. =X All thanks to someone who forced me to talk to him last night lah! Hmph. So I was like sorting out my photos in my Yahoo! photos account (I'll add a link at the side when i figure out how) and saw so many photos that I didn't wanna see. With each photo I saw I just felt worse. Dunno how to explain how I feel without sounding pathetically self-pitying, but can I just say that I HATE MEMORIES??! Wanna delete but just can't bring myself to..

Ok, finally got the time to update.. But i forgot most of what I did already. Lolz. So have to let the pictures do the talking.

Loof 150706

This was after Michelle's surprise birthday party thrown by Kenneth.. Her birthday is like in Sep lor.. And the party was on July 15th. Haha.. But it was so sweet and touching especially when he started singing for her!! Almost cried. And then she sang this song which she composed specially for us.. And I really cried. Lolz. Emo emo. I was like telling everyone if I had a bf and he does something like that for me I'd marry him.

Then Jas and I went to Loof with Mich and Kenneth.. Dunno why I look so red when I only drank like one glass of something with a cute sounding name which I forgot. Their cocktails are nice!! With cute names! Lolz. It's a nice place.. Atmosphere rocks.. Top of the building open air concept.. Pretty much like Balcony but nicer. Saw 2 of my ex-colleagues from embargo there, which is not surprising 'coz the boss used to be from embargo.

After that we went to eat then Jas and I went to Momo.. Boring. Dunno how come only can find this picture.. Mich, never send us the one we took at your party!!


In the Loof toilet =X

Jas' 21st 220706



As you can see, basically all we did was take photos and eat eat eat!! And the other half of the night we played mahjong.. =x

Shiwan's 21st 280706

Did more or less the same things as above just that location was different..

Our midnight 'snack'

The first time all 3 of us sleep together!! ;P


In the 'morning'

Outside the chalet

In the room (not the one we slept in)

So sweeeet..


Jas blew the bubble.. I'm just using it as prop..

This looks like a couple pic.. Lolz..

Someone is missing!

Someone's missing here too..

And the crazy photo-taking starts.. Now..

Number 1 to 7 in 7 act cute ways

We are such cam whores

After the 1000th flash we went mad

Still not tired..

mj time!!! (this was the third time we played at the chalet)

Play mj also can take so many pix! We power!

Stress..

Finally! End of my update.. Actually got alot more things wanted to blog about but forgot already.. Hee. Of 'coz in between all this I've been hanging out with my babes, chilling at our place (Paragon Coffee Bean), clubbing, meeting people, watching movies and work work work..

Have to rush for dinner with Mel now.. Yes, I took like 3 hours plus just to blog this.. Plus also doing all my online stuff lahz..

;P

family. i love mine.

Ok, this is gonna be a short one 'coz I have to sleep soon. Went to watch Click just now and it's a really good show.. Sorta like a comedy with family values. Ya, I know.. Who would have thought that kinda show also can teach me something right? Somemore it came right at a time when I was really thinking like there's really gotta be more to this life then what I'm doing.

I sometimes feel that I really changed alot. Not really my character but more of the things I've been doing. I have to stop drinking!! Really talk alot of rubbish when i drink.. Or is it the truth? Hmmm. Anyway, I'm quite sick of meeting people. Not that I won't do it anymore.. But just realised I should spend more time with my family while they're still here. Funnily enough, you always seem to neglect whats most important to you and only treasure it when its gone. So I'm gonna try to make sure that I don't neglect them lor.

Haiz.. Anyway I also can't say much about the show or Jace will kill me 'coz I know she hates spoilers. Lolz. But it's really a good show. Go watch go watch!! I know not so easy to change just like that. So.. Must talk to God more too.. Hopefully I'll have time..

what can stun me in the middle of the night?

Read this CAREFULLY.

M2F Lesbian Transgirl.

Any idea what that means?? I didn't too.. Until I read this . Add in the words gothic-punk and I'd think anybody would be confused. Basically, for those of you too lazy to read the blog, it's a GUY who thinks he's a lesbian trapped in a guy's body. LOLZ. What the fuck is wrong with this world? I was like reading the whole blog entry with my mouth open lor.. Like, stun stun stunned!! This kinda things also have man..

I mean.. I'm from a girls school. I think i'm pretty open to these kinda things. Butches, I can accept. Gays, I can accept. Ah kuas, I like! Lolz.. Think they're pretty! Oh yah.. Haven't told you all about the time my friend Jason brought me to Geylang to see the red light district up close and then to Changi V to see ah kuas. Haha.. It was fun lor!! Anyway, digressing. But.. A guy who likes girls.. But wants to dress up as a girl?? Sounds pretty fucked up to me man.

The whole time I was reading the blog I was trying to grasp what 'she' was trying to say.. Coz it sounds damn complicated lah! After I read this..
I often wish so badly that I was just a male homosexual, or just a heterosexual
male, or even a heterosexual transgirl (meaning M2F who likes men).
I was totally lost already lor!! How to follow??? It's weird. It's complicated. It makes me uncomfortable. =x Like what next?? Hmm. Actually I can't think of anything more complicated than this. But I'm sure next time there will be lor! The world is getting weirder man. Then just imagine if this guy who thinks he's lesbian falls in love with a girl who thinks she's gay.. Hmm. Now wouldn't that be a perfect match?? Oh.. But that can't happen coz the guy likes girls who likes girls, and the girl would like guys.. Who likes guys. Lolz.. It's seriously screwed up.

I'm still in a state of shock now. Wanted to blog about other things but thought I'd shock you all too.
