time just passes . . .

When you start working, time just whizzes by. You have no idea that christmas actually passed and you have actually reached the end of the year or you havent blogged for a super super long time. Thinking back about it, it might not be all the work it may be all the partying and alcohol. But hey, I'm young :P

Anyway updates on my life:

  1. I officially met some really bad customers.
  • An old man who told me to f--- off when I had no idea what he wanted because he was not very good at describing what he wanted.
  • An old woman who was bent on complaining me to my superiors when there was a misprint in the sizes of our clothes. I am sorry but is it my fault at all ?
  • A cheapo woman who was already getting staff discount of 50% but still had to think damn long on whether she wanted to get a skirt or not and had to waste so much of my time just bringing her the clothes she wanted.
  • A catty woman who refused to take a new piece of sweater from our stock just because a thread was slightly frayed, causing me to get new pieces of stock for her like 4 times. Damn tiring.

p.s. I am going to be nice to all salespeople in future so I dont get bitched about like the four peope got bitched about by me. And it's just not nice.

  1. I watched three movies
  • Eragon - A hero is one part courage and three parts fool. Waiting for Eragon 2 now but luckily "Time will pass quickly. Yesterday you were a farmer, today you are a hero and tomorrow might see us together. Then I'll be waiting for tomorrow. Don't worry, tomorrow will come quicker than you think.
  • Deja Vu - A damn smart show, lurve jerry bruckheimer
  • Curse of the golden flower - comical tragedy. Gong Li rocked, Jay Chow could have way more expressions. The movie came from the producers of fearless and like I slept in the middle of fearless, I slept in the middle of this movie as well
  1. I topped sales in my store temporarily. In the first 3 wks of december, I made 30000+ for my store, leading the rest but I do not think I will be leading for long because I got a mc for 3 days - today tomorrow and sunday. I at first wanted to fake an illness so I could go for my cell group party later and my 4L class gathering tomorrow but I ended up with a real fever and throat infection which got me a mc for the rest of the year haha.

God works in mysterious ways.

My life just whizzes by ~ Exciting right ~

courtesy and a little something

Just because i couldnt find the piece you wanted, does that give you the right to be nasty, slam the fitting room door and delibrately lock it at a louder sound ? Bitch ..

Anyway still hoping that I get what I want in the end. This sounds totally unrelated but god knows what I want and hopefully what I want fits into his masterplan for me somehow.

about me part 1 ..

Does your name begin with: J?

You are blessed with a great deal of physical energy. When used for a good cause there is nothing to stop you, except maybe that they aren't always used for the good. (you could dance all night.) You respond to the thrill of the chase and the challenge of the mating game.You can carry on great romances in your head. At heart you are a roamer and need to set out on your own every so often. You will carry on long- distance relationships with ease. You are idealistic and need to believe in love. You have a need to be nurtured deep within.

p.s. more to come soon .. if you wanna know about your letter .. tag lots :P

perceptions ..

Hm.. you know when you go into a store and they always play certain songs ? It's true, they only play those few songs but spare a thought for the staff inside the store. I am going nuts listening to Britney singing "All I want for Christmas is you.." like ten million times a day.

Anyway back to the topic, this entry was sparked off by a sugababes song I have been hearing over and over and over and .. .. .. over again and no i have no idea what the title of the song is. All I know is they go "People judge you only based on the things you do.."

THAT IS SO TRUE ..

Apparently, the image I have been presenting to my store supervisor is a meek young thing who cant take scoldings. On sunday, I messed up stocktake. How? Basically, I did just a super sloppy and lousy job of scanning and counting the thousands of stocks you have cramped in so few shelves. Thus, he scolded me and told me what I should have been doing but immediately after that he added "I am not scolding you leh.." I mean he was like super worried that I would break down and cry or something while actually I was treating his words like nothing. Why do you as a superior actually have to worry about scolding me, do I look that weak and pampered that I cant take nagging from you ?

This was following a long conversation with some of my friends, I found that they all have different ideas of who I was. They were all true and false at the same time. (I just love oxymorons) They all got little bits and pieces of my personality but thats not who I was on a whole haha. It takes a really really long time to actually know someone inside out and so far only a few of my friends have "gotten" who I am. Kudos to you all.

As a person who is very image consious, I hope the image and perception I have given to all of you is a positive one. If I haven done or said something or I have that you do not like, please do not hold it against me but take more time to know me better ok? Sometimes when you become too consious of yourself like what happens to me always, it backfires and you actually do things to ruin your image when you actually want to impress other people. So, I am a good person kz.

FIRST PERCEPTIONS MAY NOT ALWAYS BE TRUE, TAKE YOUR TIME TO CONFIRM THEM :)

wonderful crazy ..

American Juniors was a reality television series spin-off of the American Idol. Around 2,000 children and teenagers auditioned for the show; from these twenty were chosen as contestants. Throughout the season, this number was narrowed down to five through several rounds of voting. Like American Idol, voting was done by the show's viewers via telephone. Unlike Idol, to prevent hurt feelings, the contestants were voted into the group, as opposed to being voted off the show.The five contestants who remained at the end of the season were formed into a group also named the American Juniors. They were Lucy Hale, Tori Thompson, Taylor Thompson, Chauncey Matthews and Danielle White.

Basically that whole paragraph was to tell you that American Juniors is a kiddo version of American Idol. But, I have never heard of the winners but I have heard of her:

KATELYN TARVER
Katelyn took part in the first and only season of American Juniors. Competing against thousands of others who auditioned for the show, she succeeded in making it to the finals (top ten), but did not win a spot on the five member band.
She is also the singer of this great new song that I love ..




~... "Its a wonderful, crazy
Its a beautiful, out of control
Kind of scary, amazing
But i dont really mind at all
Like im falling, flying, laughing and crying hanging on and letting go
Cause my life's so wonderful, crazy" ...~

Sounds like my life now =P and i just love these oxymorons.

should i put this in my blog ..

Maybe my blog would get famous for the wrong reasons and maybe I will get bombarded with hate mail but I seriously and truly must get this out of my system.


罗志祥 SUCKS

I think he is the only celeb that I hate a lot. His songs stinks, his sense of humour is like so super low class, he doesnt look or sound or act or in anyway a celeb. The worst part is he has an attitude which spells I am god's gift to mankind, I am super hot, super cool, super popular and just the best artiste in the world. The aura and attitude is get from him is just arrogance, dumbness and filth. I seriously do not get him at all. He is just a pretentious f---er who thinks he is great.




I feel sad for Koda Kumi. She looks great and sounds great in this song and the meaning behind this song is not that bad, but he just ruins it I am sorry. I cant "crape" my hands for him I am sorry. (Hint: listen closely to the song to know what I am talking about)

And anyway, what kind of name is SPESHOW ? Just plain ridiculous ..
吴克群 Kenji is like a million times better

hm in case you are wondering ..

In case you peeps out there are wondering (or not..) why I havent blogged and complained about my miserable, pathetic life for the past few days, it's because I have nothing to complain about. (Plus the fact that if I tell you guys what I am doing, I might get sued by the SAF) But, since I am going to ord this friday (EVERYONE SCREAMS AND CLAPS) wtf. Bureaucracy, especially in the singapore military is slow anyway.


I HAVE NOT BEEN BLOGGING BECAUSE I AM WORKING AT ESPRIT. (WOOHOO)

You can drop by at great world city to find how I have been doing but be warned, I may be on off haha. (HINT: call blogger beforehand to ask whether he is working) And what a fantastic time I am having there, great helpful colleagues, close to home, nice customers whom I love talking to and "servicing", bad snotty customers who I dont treat well and bitch about with my colleagues the works. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. The only thing that frustrates me is the immense amount of work you have to do before closing. I understand the clothes have to be nicely folded and put on display but do they have to be sorted by size even the hanging ones? Who really bothers? Next time if I open a boutique or something, clothes are not going to be sorted by designs but by size everyone will just have so much of an easier job but will those people who are not happy with their size hate me ? Hm.. ?

ANYWAY I LOVE MY JOB, LIFE IS GOOD, AND SO IS GOD ..

P.S. I actually saw pan lingling and guo liang on my very first day of work, how lucky is that? Anyway little tip to these two celebs, lose weight (a lot of it..) and be friendly to every staff in the store not only the ones serving you, so not cool to just brush past the one you knocked into. You do not know when they will blog about it.

unlucky . . .

I cant believe what happened to me this fateful thursday. It qualifies as the unluckiest day I have ever ever had in my life.

Firstly, as all of you know my gums are receding and after the expensive treatment ~DENTAL BY THE BAY~ (rings chime) gives me, my mom (who is paying for my dental treatment) decides that I should have a second opinion and hopefully a cheaper option. Thus, me (the nice son I am) go down to NTUC DENTICARE at BUKIT MERAH to find DR TEO something something (I didnt bother remembering your name cos it is just a super disgusting chinese name which is hard to memorise) whom I have already booked an appointment with.

He sashays in with a weird smile and a revolting biege coloured hawaiian, calmly sits down and listens to my story about how my ord dental ffi officer thinks that my gums are receding and I need to see the dentist. Then, he nicely gave me 2 words - "oral cleaning" without even looking into my mouth. WTF, shouldnt you at least check my teeth to see whether that is the only thing you can do. I mean are you that great to know what problem my teeth are having without even looking into my mouth? Even DENTAL BY THE BAY has to do an x-ray for me to determine the overall problem of my teeth. What kind of professional are you?

After my bitching and questioning of his professional ethics, he decides to look into my mouth for like 3 split seconds and decides oral cleaning is all I need. Plus he refuses to give me straight forward answers to the questions I posed him about the condition of my teeth. To top it all off, I had to pay the arsehole 17 bucks for lousy and totally slipshod and unprofessional service.

Anyone has the number for C.A.S.E or some dental authority, I want to complain and sue the pants off the f-er.

To make the day even more flowery, the mom of the kid I am teaching tuition to decides to tell me the kid is sick and cant have lessons only after I reached her front door.

Sigh ..

Sigh ..

Sigh ..

Anyway, my super bad mood was quelled soon after some much needed retail therapy in Queensway Shopping Centre where I saw this super nice pair of adidas shoes. (I would have bought them if I havent already bought two new pairs of shoes in Malaysia)

Trust me they look much better up close. I was in a better mood by the end of the day thanks to the hilarious DECK THE HALLS which is much better than I expected and a hearty meal at Kenny Rogers.

P.S. To Timothy, thanks for the company and making my mood slightly better :P
