...recent drastic change after acquiring this job...
Currently blogging this during the stay in London Gloucester Hotel
Realised some drastic change in me after acquiring this job:
1. Extravagant - I really don't know why 30dollars to me is becoming smaller.. and treating drinks(as in those in a jug), feels painless to me!! For those who don't know, I used to carry an personal accounting book that accounts my daily expenses and i ate only sandwich + tea w/o milk, which cost a total of only SGD$0.80 a day, EVERYDAY during my poly school days...and what's more tiring was i earned that every single cents working while studying..What had I become now??
2. Sleeping only after 5am when in Sg especially - Again, another I don't know why. Time seems to pass so quickly at night, like as though i have no time to do everything. I'll log in msn, checking websites like friendster, facebook, fren's blogs, crew web esp, calculating when's my next pay and how much to be credited into my account, at the same time watching over the currency changes, calculating my schedule to see if i'll get any better changing any flights with any off days i have..lolxXXx..
3. Clubbed almost every friday u see me in Sg - If i really can't slp, and I'm having off the next day, why not?? Dearest just can't understand why i enjoyed clubbing, and I could never give him an exact answer. Perhaps the best reason i could think of, is that i could shout out my frustration loud in with every words unknown to me at late night though nobody could hear me... bcoz my voice would be masked by those loud thumping rhythmic music. Drinks are just like some potion that let me swing by the music...
4. Vain - I have to make up to feel better the moment i step out 100m away from my blk. Or perhaps that was due to the black eye rings i accumulated by slping late, and i really had to cover it with foundations around the eye. hehehe...
5. No friends overseas - The job sometimes doesn't allow me to have a common off day with close friends, and even if there is, they might not be free. Overseas, if i'm the most junior on flt, i'll need to call for meals and look at faces of those snr crew whether they like to join me or not. Then nowaways when i'm not the most jnr, if they don't call, i'll be all on myself. haha.. now u know why i've got ample time updating this blog recently?? lolxXXx..
6. Having average check reports has made me stronger in accepting that even if it's a bad check, it's really no big deal. Afterall, what will happen to you if a check is bad?? Life still goes on.. The next stage of life may be just waiting for you to move on..
7. More to come...
I'm not complaining so pls dun ask me to quit.. lolxXXx..
...Don't be that Girl!! by Travis. L...
Writing this during the stay in Renaissance Parc 55 San Francisco
Went out for a walk.. and accompanied lis to the borders.. didn't intend to get any reading material until i happen to see this book - Don't be that Girl!! by Travis. L. The cover of the book really turns off.. lolxXXx.. perhaps that's the way the author like to attract readers?
Really interestingly narrated as the author classified gers to few major groups - Agenda Girl, Yes Girl, Drama Queen ... etc.. (briefly read thru.. din get to rmb the rest..). Lis was telling me her personal problems.. and it all so happen to be describe the same way as the Agenda type. Though she din't quite agree to it.
As I lookout for my type.. I thought all the while i was a kind little soul..with quite good personality.. until i realised how bad my personality was - The Drama Queen. Exaggerating stories happening around me to make it sound more interesting(as u may see..). it then suggest that i should be doing some volunteering activities or do some treking and be kind to all.. haha.. din had time to read on as lis was leaving the store.. hee... funny *grinnigz*
...chinese new year 2008...
Writing this during the stay in Renaissance Parc 55 San Francisco
This year chinese new year wasn't as lucky though.. just one week before chinese new year i lost few items and damages amount to about 1K...
It started 2 weeks before CNY.. ting actually called for a meeting but the meeting was a short one, so we agreed to meet up one week later for st. james party, which was also supposed to be a bdae celeb for dear wdy..
tat nite, 3 of us turn up but ting herself.. and we shared a locker and left the keys with wdy. we ordered 3 jugs of housepour, including one long islang.. then as i start to get off my seat and head for a toilet, i fell backwards onto the ground instead.. giddiness sneaks in so sudden that i had no idea i was already drunk.. i tried to maintain steadiness and walk through the crowd for the toilet... i must say it wasn't easy if i hadn't bother too much abt my image..lolxXXx.
st came late then..nevertheless still show up..which i was expecting him to fly kite since his frenz wanted to club elsewhere.. but by the time he reached, wdy soon pulled me aside to tell me her little secret, "erm.. i'm actually leaving le...coz xxx fetching me back is waiting outside..". with the look of guilt in her face seeking for apologies, i asked for the keys to the lockers. "hur? i thot i'd given it to you..??" she claimed. the sudden shock wake me from my drunky head as i replied, "since when u pass me the keys? i dun even have a pocket to keep it??"
Suddenly both of us saw the risks..and straight away we headed for the counter to report the lost of keys. but by the time the mgmt brought the master key and bring us back to the lockers, we realised it was already opened and emptied. Frantically i searched again for nearby lockers, hoping that it was in another locker untouched nor found by someone else...
Then, our belongings was found to be another locker way impossible to be misplace. Obviously, someone had replace the bags there and found those things in the bag to be useless. I checked my bags then, only to conclude with disappointment - lost camera worth $400, hp purchased a years ago at abt $400++, and cash of $250. But the person has shown signs of sympathy - s/he left 3 pieces of $10 notes, suggested by st, believed to be some cash for cab home, with due consideration of midnight charges and that i might be staying in jurong..hmm..
wdy was apologetic and offered to top me for the loss. Afterall both of us din want to get into too detail whose fault lies where and we know v.well both of us were slightly drunk..
Then again, that nite wasn't really as memorable if not for st sendin me back.. i realise he was with me all those while when i lost my belongings, reporting lost hp/cards.. accompanying n sending me home, though i had ask him to leave first.. i din want him to leave so soon, we tried to drag the times when we'r together a little longer.. purposely missing those cabs that passed by.. purposely asked for breakfast though i can go on diet.. it's a mutual feeling i thought. a fren whom i missed most though we had been keeping in contact. We do have our own partner each and sumtimes i find, time and situation doesn't permit us to see ea other..? Alrite.. maybe he doesn't feel this way.. haha...
And by the way, chinese new year for me is simple this year.. first day to bf's place to bai nian.. then second day fly to hkg/sfo. So... nothing much to interesting...
