Complexity meets simplicity..

1. Levi's jeans (covered by dear already)
2. Jacket (Abercrombie/Nike/Adidas/LeCoq)
3. NUM bag (the big shoulder bag kind)
4. Birkenstock (my size is 35/36)
5. Nina Ricci 'Love in Paris' Limited Edition perfume (i only see it at the airport though)
6. Hair styling set with the flat iron kind (VS/Philips)
7. Wallet (mid-length Pierre Cardin etc)

i hate rainy days. :[ to be precise, days when the rain seem to be pouring down from the sky in buckets and wind that sweep u off ur feet. i think someday i am really going to freeze to death, yesh! even in humid singapore. anyway it is really a cold and sad christmas this year. work till 11 by the time i reach home i will probably just be in time to welcome christmas, all by myself, just as break had been. super sad.. why no one wanna have lunch or dinner with me ar?

Merry christmas to one and all! i wish everyone get loads of presents!!

i hate the rsm. she is so insensitive and rigid. asked if i can skip my break and go off one hour earlier but she said it is impossible. dont even bother to hear my reason. darn.. i am so sleepy that i can fall asleep even standing. many times i think i am talking nonsense to the customers. but since she doesnt mind then heck her. i will continue speaking gibberish to those people.
had an uber fun time during the class chalet last night! i am the only one who stayed wide awake (to think i was sick) and i'm the UNO princess - jun-jun chan. all thanks to siwei and his anime. anyway it was really fun and pity to all those who missed out on the fun. we should gather again soon. i am already starting to miss u guys.. :(
party at memoirs later. i think i can really be a zombie already. @.@

finally a day off from work at the dfs. though the pay is better over there, i still prefer my cafe and telemarketing jobs. mainly because the ppl aint that nice and friendly over there. hmm.. probably i cant really compare to all the beauties over there so i'm actually quite invisible to them. sigh.. not forgetting the constant bitching and office politics raging strife. i really need a break from all these(which are the only things i hate about working) thank God i'll only be working there for a month. phew.. at least the past few days i have nice ppl working with me. the aunties who are nice and friendly and also a part-time cashier who is the same age as me. he called me 'xiao mei' cos all the aunties call us that. in fact he should be the 'xiao di' though. waha. indeed singapore is pretty small and he knows nancy too. hoho. crapping around does makes time pass quicker. hopefully i'll see more of him else i'll probably die from boredom..
went to nancy's house after work at the airport on sat. it's been decades since i went there. i do miss that place cos it reminds me so much of secondary school days. talked about guys and stuff. played hei bai cheh which i kept losing and i downed a mug of raspberry vodka which sucked! luckily i added sprite to it after a few sips which made it much more drinkable. and so i drank 1 and a half mug while nancy only drank half a mug. aint i drowsy after that and so both of us knocked out. had prata which i have not had since the first arts camp. i dont understand why everyone says fong seng's prata is nice. much too overrated i would say. anyway just wanna thank nancy for being such a sweetie to chauffeur me and to have dinner with me cos no one wanna have dinner with me at the airport. thanks babe. :P
meeting up with the gers tonight. we have some serious catching up to do. looking forward to it. not forgetting the 309 class chalet on friday. i can really slack next weer cos the office will be closed for a week. will see them for the last time this year on friday for our christmas lunchie. japanese food! yummy~ which reminds me of the christmas shopping i need to do. oops.. anyone going to give me a present? just kidding. hoho. just keep a look-out for my birthday wish list which should be sometime soon. *winkz* one more thing, please let me know if u guys prefer my chalet to be on 12-13 or 19-20. (i need to book it real soon!)
before i fall in love

i really think i'm going to become super no-life! work, work, endless work. as if 7 hours on my feet in the pointy shoes are not enough, i had to stand for another 7 at the cafe. that's what i did yesterday. i can feel my legs aint mine anymore (thank God i managed to sneak a few breaks since business at the cafe is real bad)
managed to get a breather on sunday night. 307 class gathering. succeeded in getting ama n shaz to go. aint i a great influence? hoho. anyway i am real glad i made the decision to go (though i was really tired after work and the next morning is another full day) i must say army does makes a guy more mature, changed. almost got drunk cos i am uber 'lucky'.. downed a few vodka and tequila. woah~ aint i good at holding my alcohol? i even managed to float home. haha. (that is an understatement)
a revelation by wei and me: where there is women, there is trouble, gossip..
(probably it applies to the new urban males too) anyway, i am not going to get myself entangled. oh yeah. anyone wanna have dinner with me on thurs? probably btwn 5 to 7. else i'll have to eat alone at the airport..
Sometimes the sun shines
Sometimes the rain pours
But it always takes BotH to make a rainbow...

feeling more reassured. at least my 2 bosses here still love me, wouldnt be sending me packing. yet. asked me to join them for their xmas lunchie (japanese food!) and also chinese new year steamboat. :p come to think of it, i've been with them for quite some time already. they are still the most understanding employers i've ever met. thank God for that. and my new colleague is a sweetie. i am not that bored in the office now.
oh no. i am heading for disaster. the more i want to restrict what i eat, the more i eat in the end. supposed to go on a diet(in order not to burst my uniform) but i am pigging out instead. sigh.. my willpower isnt that strong afterall..
there comes a day in a year when love is in the air. can u feel it coming? i definitely can! with my favourite christmas carols being played in the office and all. i wish every day can be like chirstmas and every night like christmas eve!
i was flipping the channels when a very familiar song stopped me in my tracks. though it isn't as nice as the original version, i like the song nonetheless. think i blogged about it before, was first captivated by it when i watch qiang wei zi lian. the rose probably the westlife version is too pop for me. i am old in heart. lol.
probably appear so too. last night while waiting for bus on my way home after work, an uncle said i look like a malaysian. a married one at that! is that a compliment? do i have bliss written all over my face or do i look like a hag?! super duh...
funny encounter i had before that. a japanese guy kept talking to me in jap and i kept shaking my head and said i dont understand. but he continued and insisted that i am a japanese? alright. i know i can look like a japanese cos of my short and chubby body size plus small eyes. well, at least that is something i observed from the school of them. characteristics of an asian i suppose? i envy those school children!! get to go on overseas school trips..
last night was a dramatic night. i was filling the racks when i heard a very familiar voice. lo and behold, there was nancy and her sister! ain't i glad to see her!! lucky her. she is flying overseas with her family. asked her to help me get alcohol since i cant buy unless i am going overseas. but she need to get for herself. disappointed. so if anyone is going overseas let me know k? probably can help me get some baileys or absolut vodka cos they are sooooo cheap! anyway on my way back to the main shop, i heard a distinct "cool..cool" i turned and there she is! charmaine, on her way to paris. envy envy.. indeed yesterday is a great day for people to travel. and i dont feel that bored as much. :P
kind of dreading my work. was screwed upside down by the in-charge. suddenly came up to me to test me.. asked me to sell her a bottle of blue label. basically i have not done that for the last 6 days cos she had told me to sell the other labels. anyway not that i want to complain. her notes are so pathetic and after that she say i never read them so i dont have the product knowledge.. alright. i do admit that i have yet to memorise them but so what if i do? the customers that i get at the store aint those rich and generous kind! what can i do when they dont even let me practise my pitch on them??!! argh.. super sick.. let's just hope i am not around when the big boss flies in and test us..

can someone please give me an air ticket? any class, any airline, any country(well, not exactly. just somewhere i wont die from freezing). i am so influenced by all the people i meet at the airport. please fly me out of singapore!! i enjoy the feeling of being a tourist in a foreign land. alas my passport has expired and i am not exactly that rich right now.
anyway my location is so ulu such that i am dying from boredom. apart from the occasional nice pilots and air stewards who will give me a smile and greet me, i am practically invisible to most. so i will aimlessly pace the parameters of the store everyday.. i hate it when there is nothing to do cos time seems to stretch like eternity. sigh.. i think i need an oto trimax. anyone wanna get it for me? haha.
once again my favourite time of the year is fast approaching. yeah! love is in the air~ love is all around~ but i am going to spend christmas eve in the airport. hmph! hate the schedule cos it is so unfairly distributed. well.. not like i am going to celebrate christmas with anyone either. at least there is company in the airport. sigh. it is always festive seasons like this that makes me melancholic..

i cant wait for my last paper on monday to end. though i dont have much confidence for it, i am not exactly putting in any effort for it. probably bcos it is the last paper? aye.. think i am kind of screwed up again.. not pinning much hopes.
2nd day at the airport. sometimes i think i am far too helpful for my own good. by right, i am only in charge of promoting walker products, in particular blue label. but apparently everything is still quite messy and i am still based at the DFS. so being nice, i help the store assistants with stock replenishing and attending to the customers which are totally not required of me. well.. not that i mind that much anyway. just be nicer to me and dont take me for granted can? and one thing about the uniform. it is so tight i am having diffculty eating. alright. maybe it aint the uniform but me. need to cut some weight or i might just burst the uniform. if u guys wanna see how i am going to burst my uniform, feel free to drop by at my counter. haha. (provided you are travelling cos it is in the transit area) i am tentatively based at the south of t2 departure hall, the dfs near gates f. after the 15th, i should be changing location cos i will be doing tasting then. will have my own booth! yeah yeah yeah~
first time i ever feel i can have such close encounter with death. not that i had a close brush with death myself. apparently someone was quite envious of superman and decided to be one. what's more, s/he decided to try it out at my block. is it because the way down is longer cos we have 24 storeys? sigh.. what can it be that makes one belittle one's own life? alright. not that it never dawned on me to die but i will never jump down a building. the plummet down is just enough to kill me. anyway it has been almost an hr but still nothing is happening. the police and civil defence has been mobilized and the air cushion has already been set up. not sure if there is negotiator cos i am not exactly that keen to go up and see (or probably i'll be barred from going up) but indeed singaporeans are kind of inquisitive. a crowd gathered across the road.. waiting to see if anything interesting will happen? anyway just popped my head out my kitchen window. (i'm also a typican singaporean)the setup is being wrapped up. close shop for the uniformed guys. apparently the person decided not to be a superhero. well.. like i was telling my sister, if s/he really jumps, immediate jail term cos s/he wouldnt die anyway. aye.. it is really a bad decision to die this way. should i want to die, i will do so by sleeping in a car wih its engine on. at least no one will suspect it is suicide, probably i am just too tired. haha. anyway that is 'if'.
