War, pneumonia, SARS, deaths, wat's going on in e world man. Have been readin e newspapers & it's always e same topics, Sars & e Iraq War. Quite saddening 2 hear abt all these stuff happening around in e world. Jus hope all these things will be over & settled quickly. Well, been reading all e newspapers of e past week, which was very tiring. It can take me abt 4hrs each day 2 read those newspaper. Now it's back 2 my daily routine, reading jus 1 day of newspaper instd of e many days of newspapers i've been reading for e past few days. Don't knw why i'm so enthusiastic abt reading e newspaper all of e sudden. Wasn't like tht when i was young or even in my JC days. Hopefully, i'm able 2 continue with this habit.

Talking abt JC, envy those students who do not need 2 go 2 sch till 6th April. I think e J2s in SA r having their block test now & it's been disrupted due 2 this SARS thing. H/e, shorter June holidays for them & think it's quite serious 2 have this disease spreading around, causing deaths and stuff. So, it's not a good thing afterall. Well, have been slacking at home for e past few days. Wake up, have breakfast, read newspapers, have lunch, go online, take a nap, have dinner, watch TV, sleep, tht's my daily routine for now. Can't go swimming recently due 2 rain in e afternoon. Or shld i say i'm jus too lazy. Besides, it isn't tht safe 2 go 2 public swimming pools as before, rather go 2 Gavin's house, much safer, at least tht's what i think. (Hint Hint, hehe) Shall end here, tAtAz & CyAz peeps.

Heyoz peeps, jus got a new handphone, Nokia 6510. Guess u must be thinkin y i didnt buy those coloured phones such as Nokia 6100 etc. Firstly, it's real expensive & don't think my famly can afford such ex phones. Secondly, don't think there's a need 4 such coloured phones wth those wap technology & stuff, don't think i'll use it for now. Rather hve a simple & small phone like 6510. Actually, my aunt was suppose 2 use tis phone, since she was the one who bought it. But she said she cldn't see e small wordings & cldn't afford 2 buy 6100, so she decided 2 let me use tis new phone in order for her 2 use my 8250. Haiz, sometimes she's jus so good 2 me tht i feel i don't deserve all these. Guess i better not do things tht will disappoint her or 2 make her upset, otherwise she will lose faith in me. Besides, she's depending on me 2 take care of her when i grow old. Well enough of tht.

Anyway went 2 return my uniform 2 e head office yesterday morning before goin 2 Gavin's house for a swim + tan session. Headed down 2 HMV 2 check out whether Linkin Park's album was out. Luckily, it was & bought it 2gether wth Stefanie Sun's album before heading down 2 Gav's place. Upon reaching there, there wasn't much sunlight, it was more gloomy. Thought i was unable 2 get any tan wth tis type of sunlight, but after swimming for a while, the bright sun came out. H/e, didn't get much tan though, cauz e sunlight wasn't out for long. Went sauna after tht & headed down town. While we were in town, we kept on eating & eating & eating, till i was so bloated at e end of our eating spree. We started wth Delifrance, followed by Noodle Bar, followed by BK, followed by Famous Amos cookies & last but not least Starbucks coffee. I was so bloated after eating all those stuff, tht i felt like puking out everything man. Fortunately, a chit-chat wth Gavin & Zongyao prevented me frm doing tht & actually made me feel much better. They decided 2 walk home frm Orchard Point, which i was quite reluctant at 1st, cauz i don't live very near them. Besides, i wanted 2 rush home 2 watch e Oscars, which i missed out in e morning. H/e, decided 2 give up my Oscars show & accompanied them 2 walk home. Walked & chit-chat along e way wth them, which i enjoyed totally, though i was pespiring. We walked all the way frm Orchard Point to Zongyao's house at Geylang or Kallang Bahru, dunno which one. Took abt 1hr plus i think, after which i took a bus home cauz it was very late, otherwise wld have accompanied Gavin in walking home.

As for today, had a sudden urge of going for a swim, but didn't cauz i was jus too lazy. Think i shall go swimming tomorrow, shall make it a three times a week thing, i hope. Slacked e whole day & am watching e weakest link right now. Think it's quite interesting 2 watch it. Get 2 gain more general knowledge as well as 2 see how sarcastc e host can be. Shall end here now. CiAoZzZZzz.....

YoZzZ peeps, back again 2 update my blog. Went shopping ard Orchard wth my frens for some T-shirts yesterday. Saw some nice cheap ones, but was quite apprehensive abt buying it, dunno why. Some didn't hve e size i wanted, so end up empty handed. Was at HMV when i saw Stefanie Sun's new edition of her latest album which includes a bonus VCD, 4 $2 more. Luckily, i didn't buy it when it came out earlier on, though i don't think i will be constantly watching tht VCD. Mayb after watching it once, e nxt time i'd be watching it wld be 2 yrs later or sth? hahAz. Anyway think tht e record companies really knw how 2 earn more profits frm their singers' fans, by coming out different editions of e singer's album at different times. In tis way, those tht r true fanatics of these singers will go & buy every single edition of e singer's album. If i hve 2 mention 1 artiste, it wld be Ayumi Hamasaki. Total waste of money, at least tht's wat i think. Can't wait 4 Linkin Park's new album 2 though, listening to e songs tht i downloaded frm e net. Think it wasn't as good as e previous one? Not as rock i suppose. (PS: I'm not a fan of rock by e way, jus tht some of their songs r really very nice) Think i'm gonna buy these 2 albums tomorrow. Had dinner at Cafe Cartel, which was very nice, at least tht's wat i think. I ordered e Seafood Macroni, which tasted quite like baked rice actually. Couldn't finish it even though it was very delicious, cauz i had BK for lunch in e late afternoon. Oh, dunno why, but hve been feeling quite bloated or shld i say feeling fat recently. It's like there's these lump of fats on my tummy tht kinda thing? Even Gavin was telling me tht i had a Beer Tummy, like those pple who drink beer frequently, they tend 2 have a bulging tummy tht kinda thing? Dunno whether i use e correct term or not. Think i need 2 go train up, which i've been saying many many times but w/o action. Guess i'm not like Gavin, who has a high lvl of determination when it comes 2 doing stuff. Oh well, tomorrow shall be my 1st day then, since i'll be going down 2 Gavin's house for a swim + tan.

Talking abt training up myself 4 NS, i'm kinda freak out wth NS so as 2 speak. Been hearing loads of stuff abt it whenever i go out wth my frens. Most of their conversations kinda surround their lives in NS, which is like inevitable 4 me 2 hear them. I'm used 2 it & i don't blame them cauz i do learn stuff frm them & i guess it's normal 4 them 2 talk abt it. H/e, it jus gets 2 me as time passes by. Though i'm in a different category or shld i say PES as my frens, it somehow jus gimme e creeps. Well, it's wat every man in Sg has 2 go thru, so gals u shld knw how lucky u r man. Well i do count myself lucky cauz i heard tht my NS life won't be as tough as tht of my frens. Mayb.......

Stayed over at Gavin's place to chit-chat & play PS2. Even though i didn't play PS2 or did anything much, i jus enjoy staying over at his house, dunno why. Guess i enjoy e company of my frens. I'm a person who doesn't like 2 be alone, honestly speaking. The feeling of loneliness can be very frightening & makes me kinda upset at times, like i'm not wanted. Accompany Wee Hwa & Lionel back 2 AJC 2 reprint their CCA Records Cards tis morning, as well as 2 book my advance theory. Oh yah, forgot 2 tell u guys tht i failed my advance theory, e result of not having enough time 2 read thru 4 it. Well expected it though. Anyway was a wasted trip since it wasn't open on Sun, all becauz of e wrong info e webpage gave us. Lionel wntd 2 buy some PS2 games, so Wee Hwa & I accompanied him 2 Bishan, after which i went home while they wnt 2 do their stuff. Tried taking a nap but cldn't get in2 slp though. Until Lionel called & i woke up 2 help him settle some Uni registration stuff.

Well talking abt tis, still hvn't made up my mind yet. Need 2 do it soon cauz e registration fees paid thru ATM needs 5 working days before NUS receives it. So for those who think tht thy can register on 31st March, think again. Actually kinda made up my mind wth NTU Engineering, but being a guy who is easily influence by my peers, i need 2 reconsider it again. Most of my peers were choosing NUS Engineering instd. Oh ok Gavin, knw wat u hve 2 say, u can save ur breath. Understand wat u mean, jus tht i don't wnt go thru e trouble of reapplying nxt yr & stuff u see. Went 2 their respective websites 2 look at more detailed info abt e course i was interested in but cldn't see any significant difference. AaaaaAaaaarRRRrrrrrrRrrGGgggGGggHHHHHhhHhh somebody save me..... Anyway will think carefully before i make a final decision, jus hope u guys don't get irritated by me complaining. I'm not e most troubled person now, considering e problems Zongfu is facing wth NS. Jus hope he's feeling better. Tht's abt it i guess, waiting for my mom 2 buy dinner home now. Was supposed 2 go out wth Mom & Aunt, but was 2 lazy 2 get out of e house. So i'll cyAz peeps, CiAoZzZZzz...

Wow...jus realise tht it's been almost a wk since i update my blog. Oh yah, Hi Guys, I'm back, hehe. Jus feeling so restless after my Genting trip tht i didnt wnt 2 do anythg at all. Honestly speaking, wasn't really feeling well after e trip. My nose bled 4 e 1st time in my entire life e nxt dy after i came back frm my trip. Luckily, it wasn't a serious thing as in it didnt bleed profusely, jus for a short while. Was quite worried at 1st, but all's well again, hehe.

Okay, let me start off wth my Genting trip. Generally, think it was quite an ok trip, though there wasn't much 2 do. The most exciting ride was under service, there weren't many shops 2 shop & there weren't many good food 2 eat there. Oh yah, really hve 2 warn u guys abt e very very bad service down there though, in terms of restaurants & fast food restaurants. Every place tht we went 2 eat, seems 2 hve a shortage of manpower. Anyway spent most of my money on food & entertainment wise, a total of around RM200++. Only bought a Quicksilver T-shirt frm Factory Outlet which was damn cheap, only S$15. Jus 4 ur info, try not 2 stay at our hotel, 1st World Hotel, if u r heading 2 Genting. It seems like a very high-class hotel, when u r at e lobby. But once u enter their hotel rooms, it was really pretty small & my room's toilet kinda stink, dunno why. Well, it wasn't that bad actually, come 2 think abt it, hehe, contradicting right? Think u can ignore me. Well as 4 food wise, think their KFC was pretty nice. More tender & juicy. Tht's abt it i guess, don't wish 2 go into e details too much, cauz it may bore u guys. Oh yah wanna thank Gavin & Baoting for always allowing me 2 like follow them & stuff, & apologise 4 like always being e dian4 deng1 pao4. Really sorry...Anyway going 4 tis trip did make me realise how fortunate i was 2 be a Singaporean. On my way there, i was looking at some of e buildings tht e coach happened 2 pass by. Some of e buildings were actually schools & it was quite run-down, i had 2 say. It wasn't like any of e schs in Sg, tht r so nice & stuff. Sometimes i really can't imagine myself studying in tht type of environment, honestly speaking. Besides tht, i did feel outta place going wth these friends, mainly becauz all of them r attached. As in Gavin & Baoting, Colin & Lirong, then Gilbert is also attached though he didn't bring her along. Sometimes, it makes me so envious of them. Well, i'll let nature takes its course & being single isn't really tht bad, hehe.

After coming back frm e trip, i had 2 work e nxt dy, Wed 19 March '03. Really didnt wnt 2 turn up 4 work, cauz i was so tired or shld i say exhausted already & i still had 2 work frm 10am to 11pm. But e thought of being e last day of work urged me on, cauz i didn't wnt 2 drag my last day on & on & on. Anyway tht was e dy tht my nose bled, jus b4 goin 2 work. Guess i ate 2 much heaty food. Work was alright, nothing much 4 me 2 elaborate though. Think i'll miss working there, since it was my 1st working place & tht i learnt quite a few stuff frm there. As 4 e people there, think i'll miss some of them, definitely not all of them. Anyway i realised tht i left at e right time, cauz there were new rules being implemented which is very troublesome 2 follow & tht there was a case of food poisoning there which i heard lead 2 a court case. Luckily, Jessica & Shuqin didn't work there, otherwise they'll blame me 4 introducing them 2 this job.

Thurs & Fri were slacking dys 4 me. Jus stayed at home & rest. Wanted 2 cook cream-based pasta on Fri 4 my family, which i learnt frm my fav manager. Unfortunately, cldn't get e ingredients. Was quite excited cauz it was my 1st time cooking 4 e entire family, h/e, didnt get e chance 2. But don't think it will taste great, cauz it's me whose cooking u see hehez. Anyway, went out 2 hve a 2nd dinner wth my friends at Sakae Toa Payoh, after which we played aracade till abt 11 plus. So guess tht's abt it. Shall end here now, going out wth my frens later. So CyAz peeps, enjoy ur weekend.....

Hey peeps, quite tired now after a hectic day out. Basically i went 2 NTU's talk on Acc & Biz and NUS's talk on Engineering. I felt tht e talks weren't really helpful in terms of making a decision. Knw tht asking questions wld be more helpful but really didn't knw wat 2 ask. Actually got quite pissed due 2 e fact tht i wasn't able 2 attend e Engineering talk at NTU cauz most of my frens wanted 2 head down 2 NUS. I knw i cld hve stayed there by myself, but really hate e feeling of attending it alone hence e decision 2 follow my frens down 2 NUS. I still can't make up my mind which University 2 go 2, since e talk didn't really help me at all. NTU is super faraway, think i need abt 1hr 40mins 2 reach there. So if i were 2 apply 4 NTU, guess most prob i wld be staying at e hostel. NUS, though is near, doesn't quite convince me tht it is a better engineering sch than NTU. Hve a feeling tht NTU is more of a hands-on university as compared to NUS, which to me is a more theoretical university. Well shall take more time 2 consider abt it, since i'm making a decision tht may affect my future.

Anyway after all those university stuff, we headed down 2 Selegie Road 4 a Karaokae session and sang 4hrs worth of songs. After dinner & stuff, headed home 2 pack my stuff and now i'm here blogging. Am not at my own house now but at a friend's house, whom i hvn't seen or met up wth since CNY. Decided 2 go 2 his house 2 chit chat & 2 do some catching up wth him. Besides going 2 Golden Mile Complex wld be much nearer frm his house as compared 2 going 2 tht place frm my house. Quite excited wth regards 2 e Genting trip as it is my 1st time going wth my frens. Hope it will be fun....

Phew, finally added all e lists 2 my blog liaoz. Hve 2 do tis 1st before posting sth, so tht e changes will b shown 2 u peeps. Anyway was late 2dy 4 work cauz of my stupid alarm which didn't ring. The outlet manager was quite angry & pissed off actually, but more wth the supervisor, who cldn't turn up & didn't inform "him" beforehand. Don't think i will elaborate too much otherwise tis post can b very long.After work, headed home immediately as i was quite tired & had a little headache. Wanted 2 take a nap but cldn't, don't knw y. Jus laid on e bed & listen 2 e radio. Went 2 1 of e coffeeshops ard Heartland Mall 2 hve dinner. Realise tht there r many changes 2 tht place. Hvn't bn there for quite some time already, ever since i moved out of Hougang yrs ago.

Yesterday was my off day & had wantd 2 go 2 Gav's place for a swim & tan. H/e, there wasn't any sun, so decided not 2 go. Met up wth Gav later 2 do some stuff at MOE. Gav got quite worried wth regards 2 e Uni appln, so we decided 2 head down 2 NUS 2 settle e problem since it was nearby e area. While we boarded e bus, we saw 1 of our ex-seniors, Li Lijun, e 1 who participated in e Channel U Star Search. Decided 2 follow her since we didn't knw where 2 alight & stuff. She alighted @ Faculty of Sci, which was damn far awy frm the University Admissions Off., which we realised after exploring tht faculty & seeing e campus map. Took a bus down 2 e place which we thought was e admissions building, but cldn't find any office related 2 University Admissions. Decided 2 walk ard & explore, which was very tiring since there many stairs 2 climb & stuff. Explored in2 e Faculty of Law, which was nearby. Realise tht e pple there speak very well, in terms of articulatin their words. H/e, there were grps of pple who were even playin Poker & Mahjong at e study area, which we were quite surprised. After tht, we went 2 e Faculty of Biz, where most of e students were gals. It wasn't very big as compared 2 e Faculty of Science, guess thy don't need 2 do any practicals, tht's y.

After explorin, tis 2 fac, we came back 2 e starting place. Initially, we felt very embarrassed abt asking directions, in e end, we jus entered 1 of e offices & asked ard. Realised tht we hve 2 take a bus down 2 e Faculty of Engineering, where e Admissions Building was. Upon reachin e bus stop, took a look at e campus map & i felt tht we cld walk there as well as 2 explore e faculty tht i wld most prob b goin. Gav was quite tired by then but he didn't mind walking there for e sake of me exploring e faculty. Thanks Gav, hehe. Got abit lost & realise tht it was a faculty full of guys, which were quite cheena, haha. SiGnZzzz....guess i won't be able 2 see many pretty gals if i enter tht faculty, hahaz. Found our way & finally reached e Admissions Building. Oh forgot 2 tell u tht e internal shuttle bus rides were quite bumpy due 2 e no. of humps tht e bus had 2 drive by. It cld really make ur whole body be lifted out of ur seat.

After settling all those stuff, we went 2 pple's park 2 meet up wth Colin so as 2 pay e deposit for e Genting trip. Decided 2 hve dinner at Chomp Chomp, after which we went home. Was so tired tht i cldn't blog & went 2 sleep since i had to wake up early 2dy. Mayb tht's why i cldn't hear e alarm clock ring, haha. Quite troubled now as 2 which University 2 choose for my Engineering course. NTU is too far away frm my house & if i do go there, i may hve 2 stay in e hostel. Though staying in e hostel is cool, i may hve 2 be very active in my hall activities in order 2 stay in there, which i think may affect my studies. If i don't do well, i will feel really guilty cauz studying in e University is very expensive & not tht easy. Adding e hostel costs, it will really costs bomb man since my family is not very well-off. H/e, after taking in2 consdieration e transport fees tht i wld hve 2 fork out if i don't stay in e hostel, it is actually equivalent 2 e cost of staying in one. And though NUS is nearer, i dunno y, but i jus hve e feeling tht NTU is much better in terms of hands-on experience. This is jus wat i feel, not a fact. HaiZzz...so confused man, hope u peeps can give me some comments or opinions. Shall end here now, sorry for e long long long post. =)

Hey peeps, jus added an event lists, which is relatively short. Guess mine will be the shortest amgst my frens since i hve very little activities goin on. No choice small social circle. Will be adding a to do & wish lists to my blog. Spent quite some time doing this events list. Hve 2 check whether it is presentable or not each time i make some changes to it. So mAfAn, luckily got this program 2 help me solve the problem. But still, it took quite some time.

Anyway nothing much happened for the past few days, jus went 2 work as usual. They hvn't employed any additional staff, even though there r 2 of us tht r leaving. Will be going to Genting this Sunday with a few frens. Initially didn't really want to, but realise tht i hvn't been out of the country wth my frens & tht i do need a break after 2 mths of work, so decided to go for it. Real tired right now, think i'm gonna go sleep. Might be going swimmin & sun tanning at Gav's place tomorrow. Hopefully the sun will shine and the rain wld go away....

Didn't do anything much yesterday as well as today. Went to my Grandma's place and wanted to have a swim there yesterday, unfortunately when i reached there, it started drizzling. Anyway talked to my uncle abt University courses and stuff. He told me to choose a course which i have interest in, as well as a course which will have good job prospects in the future. I always feel tht my uncle & his wife are very knowledgeable abt things, tht's why i always like to go there to listen to them (as in my mother and them) chatting cauz i usually learn quite a few stuff. Ate dinner there and then headed home after tht.

As for today, i stayed at home all day cauz most of my friends were in camp. Slept in the afternoon after which i cooked instant noodles for dinner. Since i had nothing better to do, decided to check up info on those courses tht i was interested in. Actually, there r only three courses tht i'm interested in initially, they r Accountancy, Business and Engineering. My uncle did tell me tht if i'm gonna take engineering, it wld be better to minor in business so tht i don't have to be an engineer all my life. Cauz engineer got age limits, in the sense tht maybe if u cross a certain age, the employer may hire new ones to replace u instd of letting u carry on. In tht case, the subject or course tht u minor in mayb helpful to u. Anyway forget what i say, think it doesnt really make sense hehez, guess i'm not really good in expressing myself in words hahaz. Narrowed down to Engineering in the end cauz realise tht Business and Accountancy wld be better suited for the females. Besides i dont think i want to have a desk-top job tht does the same things everyday, if i'm correct to say this. Solving problems, as what engineers do or shld i say what those websites tht i've been to told me, maybe a much better job to take up. H/e, i might be wrong so don't take what i say seriously. After some thoughts and info checking, most probably will be taking up common engineering, afterwhich i'll specialise in Mechanical Engineering, cauz out of all the engineering, this one kinda attracted me the most. Now i'm contemplating whether to go to NUS or NTU. But it's not the final decision yet, have to think abt it carefully before i make one, so tht i wont regret it. Will be heading down to Suntec for the workshop on Mech Eng. by NTU, i think. Hopefully it can give me a clearer view and help me to make a decision. That's abt it, gotta go now, CyAz....

Finally can heave a sign of relieve, D-day is over. Am really shocked at my results, seriously speaking. One of my classmates, who usually does very well for exams/tests, was in front of me while i was collecting my results. Saw his grades, which was really fantastic. My heart beat faster & i was like very worried. Then my tutor handed me my results slip and said in chinese: "Mingyao, zuo de hen hao." Thought it was some comforting words to console me, until i saw the results. I was like in total shock, really. Jus ran out of the hall, half crying (a little)& in absolute unbelief. Called my family & told them abt it, which they thought i didnt do well since i was like crying, a little. Seriously speaking, i really didnt expect such results, I swear. Was thinking more to the worst case scenario. I knw by saying this, u peeps must be thinking i'm proud or jus a show-off, but honestly tht's not my intention. Jus telling the truth, hope u peeps don't get the wrong idea abt me.

Anyway didnt really celebrate or anything, jus went to Starbucks with one of my good friend to have a drink & to chit chat. She wasn't in the best of mood, so tried my best to make her not think too much & to see things in a different point of view. Hope she didnt think i was jus pitying her or anything, cauz i'm not tht type of person. Went home for dinner after tht, which kind of made me feel a little sad. My parents didnt say anything at all, which was really very upsetting for me. Neither did the rest of the family. They jus asked me whether i could enter Uni, tht's abt it. Mayb they aren't those that show their concern directly i suppose. But was a little sad, i have to say. Nevertheless, i'm really happy with my results. Jus hope u peeps don't get the wrong idea tht i'm a boastful or proud person, by saying all these. Gotta go right now, need to go to my Grandma's place since i hve nothing to do.CiAoz....

Jus finish reading 4 days of newspapers. Suddenly got interested in reading newspapers, never had the time to last time & was never interested in current issues. Really very very tired recently, due to the lack of sleep. Kinda worked back-2-back on Tues & Wed. Think i'm gonna sleep well tonight, though tomorrow's D-day cauz i'm too exhausted. Not tht i'm not worried abt my results, jus tht my mind is too tired to think abt it. I will be worried when i reach sch tomorrow, tht's for sure.Oh yah, dyed my hair today with the help of my aunt. Had to redye since i went to cut my disgusting hair away. It's now quite copper brown, which quite shocked me, & short. The last time i dyed, it was only highlighting a few parts of my hair, but now, it's like the whole head is copper brown.

Anyway Jessica didn't got selected cauz the outlet manager is looking for long term part-timers. Sounds contradicting right? Hehez. Anyway think they r really gonna hve a shortage of part-timers when another colleague and i leave. Till now they hvn't even employed any part-timers. But it's none of my business, so what the hell. A colleague of mine suddenly wanted to quit today, due to friendship problems she's experiencing with another colleague. It was quite sad to see her cry while talking abt it. Shows how much she treasures her friendship with tht colleague.H/e she's almost on the verge of giving it up cauz she's unable to tolerate tht fren of hers anymore. Tried to talk to her abt it, but guess i wasn't really a good counsellor. Besides tht, i witnessed the worst quarrel btwn a couple in my life. It was btwn the lesbian couple working there. They were shouting at each other & the butch was like pulling & dragging her. Think i better not go into the details but was really frightened by it. I really don't like people to quarrel, whether it is btwn couples or family members. Jus get very afraid of it.

Haiz, tomorrow is D-day for me. Have no confidence at all, seriously speaking. Nothing much i can do now either. SiGnzZzzZzZzZzz.....Anyway think i'm gonna end here by wishing all those who r receiving their A Lvl results good luck & try not to think too much abt it. Gotta go now peeps, hopefully can tell u guys the good news instd of the bad one. But guess it will be the latter.

I'm really really very pissed off with either my IE or my com. I can't read any of my frens' blogs, those who host their blogs under blogspot.com. It's like i have to refresh many times & have to wait for a very long time before i can read their blogs previously. As for now, i can't even see a thing. Really think my com is too slow and lousy. Hope i can get a new one soon, but then my mum told me to buy a new one after i come out of NS. Anyway did discuss wth my bro to share together to buy a new one, but he's asking his fren, who is going to China quite soon, to check out the price over there 1st. He told me it was cheaper to buy frm there & tht most com sold in Singapore r made there as well.

Today i didnt work for 14hrs cauz one of my colleagues wanted to work today, to accompany her "boyfriend", since "he" will be going on holiday soon & tht she doesnt get to work wth "him" due to the schedule planned by the outlet manager. So, i went to shop around after work with Zongyao, cauz i really need to buy a few new T-shirts as i've runned out of clothes to wear. Wanna apologise to Zongyao cauz i made him wait for like almost 2hrs i think? Really very sorry abt it Zongyao. Was helping the outlet manager to do some stuff with regards to the renovation of the cafe. Went to Level One & Heeren to shop, since these r the only places tht i can really get cheap T-shirts. Unfortunately, the size of the T-shirts tht i like were either too big or too small. But managed to buy one frm fourskin. Was quite ex though, 28 bucks. After tht, went home & now here i am updating my blog. Hey peeps, is there anything wrong with the ShoutOut box thingy? Cauz it doesn't seem to be on my blog & when i access the website, they couldn't find the page or server. Gotta go now working for 13hrs tomorrow. Think i will be going bonkers soon.

Let me begin by updating u peeps abt wat hve been going with my life for the past few days. On Thurs, nothing much happened, went to work & stuff. Worked back-2-back again, which meant tht on Fri i had to wake up real early, since i was on night shift the day before. Was quite a busy day, esp during lunch time. Had many food orders instd of drink orders. Luckily my outlet manager was able to come & help us out, though "he" was having an important meeting with the big bosses. Oh yah, forgot to tell u peeps tht there was a shortage of manpower on Fri, since it was the release of the 'O' Lvl results. Had 3 staff members who were waiting for their results. Was supposed to work frm 7am to 6pm initially due to the lack of manpower, but i requested to work till 3pm instd cauz i was having advance theory at night & i wasn't prepared at all, mind u. Made quite a few mistakes, which the naggy operational manager noticed & kind of reprimanded me. To hell wth him man, only knws how to make trouble for us instd of helping us. Irritating. Anyway worked till i was really in a daze, since i committed quite a few mistakes & got ticked off by both my outlet & operational managers, which definitely discouraged me alot. How useless am i man....Bad omens as i wat i view them as. Jiayi dropped by to look for me, which made me feel so happy. Was abt to leave as well, so asked him to join me for lunch, which we ate BK at Cine. Chit chatted & left abt 1hr later as i still have a test to "study" for. Anyway, thanks alot Jiayi & sorry for not being able to accompany u.

Advance theory really sux for me man. Didn't think it was easy as wat most of u peeps said. Mayb i wasn't prepared tht's way. Think i'm gonna fail, was the second last guy to leave the place, how hopeless am i? Went to meet Zongyao & Gavin for dinner, which we ate Sakae Sushi. Was planning to shop for new T-shirts in town with Zongyao initially, but had to cancel tht since Gavin decided to join us & suggested havin dinner at Bugis's Sakae. Though i didnt get to buy any clothes, did manage to buy Avril's CD, which i think was really very nice.Went home after dinner cauz we cldn't find anything to do & i had to work real early the next day.

Saturday was the longest day i've worked so far in my entire life. I was supposed to work frm 10am to 12am, instd of the original 3pm to 12am schedule. Received the news the night b4 & gladly accepted it. Guess u peeps must be thinkin tht i'm mad or something. It was a horrible day for me. The morning crowd was still manageable, since they didnt come at one go. They came at intervals, which made things much more easier for us. Us implying only 3 crew members, wth no manager around. Tht was y i had to come in early by the way, cauz my outlet manager had to attend a meeting at HQ. It was quite fun working w/o any managers cauz it gives us less stress. Anyway it wasn't as busy up till night time. Oh yah, forgot to mention tht Jessica, a classmate of mine, happened to drop by my cafe. Chit chatted & stuff and she asked me abt my job, since she's was so sick for her own. She was very interested in my job after explaining wat's the working environment, the pay & stuff. Guess she jus wanted a change in environment. Even got her to go for an interview later in the day. Dunno whether i did the right thing by introducing her to his job. I didnt really recommend it, honestly speaking. Told her all the bad stuff, but she was still quite interested. Hehe, hopefully i dont get her into trouble, otherwise she'll blame me & said i lie to her.

Oh here comes the most busy part for the day. After Jessica left, Jiayi & 10 of his classmates popped by to hve a drink. Initially it was still ok since there wasn't anybody ard, but then the crowd started to come in as well. 4 came in, then another 6, then another 6 more, & another 3 more started to come to cafe. I was in shock & worried tht we weren't able to cope wth the crowd. The whole bar station was like in a mess cauz we had no time to clean up, due to the flood of people ordering drinks. Luckily i had the assistant manager to help me, otherwise i wld be dead man. Actually i didnt really do alot, most of the oders were done by the assistant manager. I jus took orders afterwhich i tried my best to help "him". Feeling really useless for not being able to help "him", but i was pissed as well with my other colleague, who was practically doing nothing at all. Screw him. In addition, the crowd came during the time when we were abt to clean up the cafe or shld i say when we were abt to do the closing of the cafe. This badly affected the closing of our cafe. In the end, we left at abt a few minutes after midnight, with many things which we didnt do. Oh yah had to thank the assistant manager, since "he" charged the drinks ordered by Jessica & Jiayi as tht of a regular size drink, when they received a large one instd.

And finally, i'm able to sit down & update my blog. I'm really really exhausted right now. Still need to wake up early since Wee Hwa is coming over to watch 10 epsiodes of the show i had recorded for him while he was in camp. My leg r really tired esp my right one & suffering frm a soar middle finger while closing the cafe. Think i shall end here cauz it's too long liaoz. Guess u peeps must be thinking tht i've written an essay man. Sorry to bore u peeps as well. Shall head to bed liaoz really cannot tahan anymore. I still got one more 14hr shift on Mon to tahan man. SiGnZzZzZzzzz......
