SiGnZzZzZz....seriously feel like giving up this blog thingy. It's so troublesome. At first, i thought the server was down or something, that's why i couldn't view any new updates on my friends' blogs. But i realise that i had to add "www" to the web add of my frens' blogs in order to really view their blogs. As for mine, even after adding "www", nothing came out, jus the title. So FRUSTRATING.....Guess i better go learn those HTML codings while i have the time, otherwise nobody will ever get to see my blog except for myself, which sounds so depressing.

Anyway, today was a really tiring day for me as i had to work back-to-back for two consecutive days. Yesterday i worked the night shift, and today, after only like 5hrs of sleep, i have to wake up to get to work. Was supposed to start work at 10, unfortunately, one of my colleagues feel sick and the manager couldn't find anybody to work, hence extended my working hrs. Besides that, there was a sudden rush of customers at abt lunch time. Instead of doing things calmly, i was making alot of mistakes in preparing the food due to the idiotic operational manager, who kept on nagging w/o helping us at all. He was like trying be nice in front of the customers so that if there were any mistakes, all the fault goes to us and he's the "nice guy". Get what i mean? hAiz.. nvm guess i'm talking rubbish here hehez. Oh yah, forgot to tell u guys that i got my pay yesterday. Wasn't alot cauz it was only like half a mth of work. Wld like to spend some money to buy some stuff like CDs and clothes (my 2 main priorities), but then something's restricting me frm doing so, dunno why also.

Anyway, went straight home after work for my reunion dinner, which was especially early, at ard 5pm. First time having steamboat dinner, which was brilliant. Though it was nothing like those restaurants or steamboat buffets, the feeling of eating dinner with ur family was exceptionally nice and heartwarming. Unfortunately, my dad didnt prepare the food and wasn't present for dinner cauz he had to work. hAiz....sad but luckily he'll be cooking on the 2nd day of new yr. Hopefully he will cook for me before i go to work that day, otherwise this yr, i dont think i'll be able to taste his cookings anymore. So u see, doesnt mean that u r a chef's son, u will get to eat food that is prepared by ur dad.

Well guess i'll end here by wishing all u peeps a Happy Chinese New Year in advance. May u be able to collect as many hongbaos as possible, as well as to be successful in all the things that u do in this yr of the goat. Sorry for the long post today, hope it didnt bore u to death, or guess it already did all the damages haha. Oh yAh, forgot to tell u peeps something, I passed my Basic Theory, hehe i know it's nothing great but jus wanted to let it out hehe. Dunno whether i've got the time to book my Advanced Theory as well as my Pract lessons. Enough of this, i'm dragging the post, so i'll cya soon.

Think something is seriously wrong with this BlogSpot thingy, posted so many stuff but nothing came out. Was thinking maybe it was the wrong html codings that i used, but when i went to my frens' blogs to have a look, they haven't been updated for quite sometime as well, don't think they didnt update their blogs for such a long time. Anyway, think i'll jus leave these html stuff till a later date when i'm free.

Anyway, today was a tiring day for me, had to wake up early for my morning shift and when i reached home, had to clear my room for the coming Chinese New Year. As i was clearing some of my old stuff, it brought back some memories of my secondary sch life. Can be quite embarrassing, when u realize how childish and naive u can be. Besides that, before i went to work this morning, saw a pict of myself when i was in kindergarten. Kind of like those graduating pictures that u take with those squarish caps and stuff. It doesnt look like me at all. Now i'm thinner and uglier, not that i was very handsome before, jus looked worst than ever.

Sighzzzzz, the thought of working on the 2nd day of cny really sux man, but luckily the pay will be doubled. Guess i wont be celebrating cny with my close frens, sorry guys. Anyway think i'm gonna end here, very tired now. Take care peeps.

Hey peeps, sorry for the late update. Didnt do anything much for the past few days, so didnt really wanna post anything. But if u have to knw, on Sunday went to work, which was a super boring day since there weren't anybody at all. On Mon, had my day off, so stayed at home the whole day and slack. As for today, went to work and did Spring Cleaning for the cafe. The Manager asked me to scrub the tables and chairs till it was clean. To me i think it was futile, since birds like to come in release their bombs in the Alfresco area. Besides that when the customers come in, after they smoke and stuff, all the hard work i've put in will not pay off, the tables and chairs will still be the same as before.

Shan't bore u with work anymore. Anyway New Year's coming and i need to do somehing with my hair. Jus went to the barber yesterday and think the person really doesnt knw what Armani is. Luckily i've got an Aunt who learnt hairstyling before, so can ask her to help save me frm this terrible hairstyle. But dunno whether she's free to do it or not, since she will be tired by the time her work ends. hAiz jus hope somebody can help me change my hairtsyle. Anyway think I gotta go liaoz. Working morning shift tomorrow so need to rest while i can. CyAz.....

SiGnz...let me start off with something boring, the SAT test. Think i'm gonna get a low grade again, my verbal section really sux to the core man. Darn, think i'm wasting another 80 bucks, real sorry abt it mummy. Anyway took it at ACJC, which i had no choice (since there were only 2 venues left), the supposedly "materialistic" sch, at the sports complex somemore. Thought we would be taking at the sch hall instead. Some took at the Aerobic's Studio or sth like that, while the rest took it at the badminton hall, which was quite big. Went to the main sch compound for a while to look for the toilet and saw some elevators leading up to the seventh storey. Wasn't really like a sch, was more like an office building. Ok think the description of the ACJC thing is too much, guess i shant bore u with it.

Anyway after the SAT went to eat Billy Bombers at Holland V with some frens. Was my 1st time eating it, think it was quite ok, nothing special. Ordered the Devil's Advocate Burger, which was quite filling. They had Mango flavoured Cola, which i think was disgusting. It was quite ex honestly speaking, spent abt 20 bucks there. Went home after that, had a headache due to the lack of sleep as well as the lengthy test. Slacked the whole day by watching the MTV Asia Awards, think it was quite weird for chinese singers to sing there though it was supposedly a mutli-cultural award show.

Will be watching the shows i've recorded for this week later as well as the Womens' Singles Final match of the Aus Open btwn the William's Sisters, though i knw the result already. All thanks to my bro who informed me abt it when i jus finished my SAT test. Damn Venus man, think she's giving in to her sis to allow her to win her Serena Slam. hAiz..wat to do...ok ok sorry for the boring stuff think i'll end here now. CiAo....

Another tiring day indeed, a sudden crowd of pple came in to eat and stuff. Was eating dinner then, but had to stop to prepare the food which they had ordered. Darn....Closing the kitchen was delayed as well, resulting in me going back late again.

SiGnz...Still need to wake up early tomorrow for my morning shift as i've requested for. Havent prepared anything for SAT this coming saturday, guess i'm gonna do as bad as the other time. My third time taking this, think i'm really wasting my parents' hard earned money. It's a real waste of money man, dont think i'm gonna retake it even if i do real bad in it. That's abt it for today i guess and sorry abt the dull blog for today hehez..NitEz...

Today was quite a boring day for me, jus went to work and stood all day. Business was quite alright in the afternoon, but at night, it really sucks man. Good thing is that i can slack, so who cares. Sometimes i really wonder how the cafe is gonna survive, with such low earnings and such high rents. But as long as i get my pay, who gives it a damn hehez...


Work aside, Lionel called me up today but i didnt feel the vib. Luckily he picked up the phone otherwise i would reprimand myself for being "insensitive" to phone vibrations. Why? Cauz he jus enlisted into the army and it's not easy for him to call his family and frens u see. Signzzz...come to think abt it, my turn will come soon though i'm the last in my grp of friends to enlist into the army. Guess i better not bore u pple with army stuff so shall end here and watch my TV hehez...NitEz peeps

Hi everybody, finally decided to start a blog after seeing so many of my frens' blogs. Think it's quite interesting, keeping records of ur daily life. Anyway pls bare with my blog's design cauz i'm still figuring out the html codes and stuff. Think it will take some time so pls bare with it.



Anyway today was kind of the last gathering before my frens enter into the Army tis week. Tried to get everybody to come but Gavin had work then some of them left early for other stuff so was quite boring actually. Went shopping ard for new yr clothes, left a top, but couldnt find any that i like except for the one frm 77th street. Frens bought a few stuff though...Went to visit Gavin again, think he's quite popular frm the fact that so many pple went down to visit them when thy r free. Dont see anyone doing that to me but heck that since i dont have much contacts as compared to Gavin.



Ate Kenny Rogers for dinner afterwhich i accompanied Lionel, who was joining his frens, since we were taking the same bus. Headed home and then decided to edit my blog and post something so here it is. GtG now to change the blog design hehez....
