4G CHALET
Around 20+ of us went, and there were only around 8 girls present. Some came during the bbq only. After we reached, the guys pushed one another in the pool, then took out their shirts to play ball. I suggested we steal their shirts, so they'll have to come looking for them half naked :P The disappointing thing was, the guys weren't anxious or what when they realised their shirts were missing =/ No fun.

We rented bikes and rode around pasir ris park in a group. Fun :D
Then went for Wild Wild Wet, while some went to sing K. Everything was great, and we got sunburnt.
My legs were aching like hell, not the usual muscle ache, but it just felt as though my legs are having a bitter feeling. Only honqi understands what i mean though. Maybe because they're overworked or something. Darn xin ku =/

One of us were supposed to be the odd one out in the first few pictures.

Candid.


Showered, and had bbq. The pit was full of people already, so we sat down and watched tv; The Little Nyonya and Forensic Heroes. Thanks to those who cooked for us :D

Laogong/laopo munching on her chicken wing.

Next up, 8 of us i think, executed our plan. It was secret as we didn't want Mr Goh to know. Bought vodka, and went to the beach to drink. Upon reaching, i cried due to the pain of my legs, but was okay very soon. =/ Dearie and i were super red after we finished everything! Even our necks were red. Our eyes were bloodshot too. Our heads and necks felt very warm. They kept teasing us and saying we're drunk, but we're not okay! On the way back, they asked qimian to piggyback me and he did, but i decided not to put my weight on him after a short while.

RED.


Went back, and everyone celebrated the November babies' birthdays.


Then played mahjong till 4+am, and slept around 2 hours before checking out the next morning. I didn't win at all! I only know how to win, but don't really know which tiles to keep and which to throw. Guess i'm not cut for mahjong =/
I slept for 7 hours after i reached home! x.x
Overall, chalet was great! :)


Unemployed again.
Remember i talked about finding a job as surveyor? Here's what happened last tuesday. We were supposed to ask people above 18 years old who're working to do it. Good thing is, we can do this work anytime, anywhere, and as many/little as we want. Bad thing is, the pay sucks, 50 cents per valid survey done. They'll call the contact of the person who did the survey, to verify that the person did the survey. The person must be above 18 years old and has a job. And, it's difficult!
Asking people to do surveys SUCK.
Irritating people just won't spare around 2 minutes to do a simple survey!
Some come up with idiotic excuses like "Sorry i'm in a rush." when after they said that, they still continue to walk slowly and leisurely! Argh.
Those that reject us, made us feel demoralised :( Sigh. Can't they see what poor things we are, standing in the scorching sun asking around for people to do surveys?
Not like we're asking for money for what, just 2 minutes is all we need!

Went to orchard, outside taka to do. Was quite glad we saw chomel, yixia and xiuzhen! We asked them to help us fill with fake occupation, and pretend they're 18 years and above. They also helped their parents do :D

After 2 hours, we couldn't take it, and went for lunch. I decided to sms many friends to ask if they're willing to let me put their contact as a person who did the survey, and i'll help them do it. Told them if the company calls, pretend they're 18 and above, and have an occupation. Was glad that almost everyone replied immediately and obliged! :D Thank you all so much! Didn't reply most of you as i'll have to use more smses =/

Since my mum's office is in orchard, i even went up to ask her and her colleagues to do the survey =x After that, we decided to quit and continue looking for jobs. Back to square one.


戴阳天 who acts as the japanese guy in The Little Nyonya. SO HANDSOME & CUTE RIGHT!

I find jj's 不潮不用花錢 dance is nice! :D The video at the link below takes some time to load, the 不潮不用花錢 starts only at 1:50, but it's the complete dance and i think it's one of the best! Go see go see :P

Oh and i dreamt of jj! Lol. In the dream, my clique and i were taking turns to take photos with him, at night in the school i think, with no one else around. When it was my turn, we only took like 2 photos, then had to leave already :( Laogong/laopo took the most pictures with him, and i was darn jealous of her. HAHAHA.


I WANNA WORK AT PIZZA HUT!
Mainly because the uniform is nice, and being service crew there seems quite okay for me.
Dearie, ed and i have been going to several outlets to ask (they have no phone number so can't call to ask), and only filled the application form for one outlet x.x

Love is not about finding the perfect person for you,
But seeing someone imperfect as perfect in your eyes.

The world is not enough

Love my jacket for korea trip :D


Job hunting with dearie on friday.
Applied for jobs as warehouse packers, waitress at Ajisen, packers at The Adelphi.
Chances are low :(

Highlight of the day:
We went to The Adelphi after reading from a newspaper, for a job as packers, they were hiring 150 i think. After we reached, we couldn't find that page of the newspaper which has the address of the company! So we decided to try looking around at the 7th floor as dearie remembered that detail. And i thought if really can't find the company, i can borrow newspaper from a salon i used to patronize, i guess they'll remember me. We went level 7 to look around, but wasn't sure, so we decided to go to the salon.

{Extract from dearie}
(Took the lift from level 7 to level 1...)
Emily: Eh? I think the salon is on level 5 leh.
Amanda: Haiyo, never say earlier. Then we like two lu4 chis1.
Emily: No la, just forgetful ok.
Amanda: Nevermind, we go toilet first.
(Out from the washroom, took lift to level 5...)
Emily: Eh it's not here leh! Omg.
HAHAHA.
Amanda: Then how? Or we go first floor again to look at the directory lor.
Emily: Haha, ya kay.
(Took lift to level 1, looked through the directory...)
Emily: Oh it's at level 2.
Amanda: Haha, it's only at level 2? And we take so long to find it. It's not just forgetful la, its simply retarded. And we went all the way to level 1 just now just to use the toilet. HAHA.
(Went into the lift...)
Emily: (Reaching for the level button) Eh! No level 2?!
HAHAHA!
(Got out of the lift...)
Amanda: Oh there, the other side.

*Not all the lifts reach all the levels.

Laugh out loud.


I SAW JJ 林俊杰 at Causeway point on saturday!!! :D x 1000000
Mum wanted to eat at Toastbox, and when we reached the entrance, we realised it was sooooo crowded with people, waiting for jj to appear on stage for some breadtalk thingy. Just then, he came out! :DDDD
But we were rushing to watch a movie in 15 minutes, or i would have stayed to see jj longer! x( x100000


Caught Beverly Hills Chihuahua.
It's nice overall. (: I love Delgado, the german shepherd, so much lah! He's like so shuai ;D

I wanna watch Bolt & Twilight soon!

Stayover @ darl's house
Was ready to go out at 11pm, and told my mum i was going over. But she didn't let me, suddenly. I tried reasoning out with her, and it turned out to be a quarrel. She obliged only after half an hour, and sent me to darl's house. Dearie and laogong/laopo were at the bus stop there, and burst i into tears after alighting, and told them what happened.

Was trying on darl's specs to see if they can look like geek specs.

Was trying out the smile shutter on my camera, which explains those retarded smiles:
Puffy eyes after crying =x

Were lai4 chuang2 -ing and chatting after we woke up.


At darl's house, we watched an old chinese horror movie, Rush Hour, and half of Eight Below. Thanks dearie for the disks! (:
Well, that horror movie certainly made my confidence go up, as even for someone who doesn't watch horror like me, it was NOT SCARY and STUPID. Only screamed at a sudden appearance of the hair of the ghost, not sure whether it's because i got scared by my clique's scream instead. Hahaha.

Then we chatted on the bed, me playing my psp while laogong/laopo smsed, darl slept, dearie did random stuffs. Got to sleep only around 5+am, and woke up at 7+am, which means we slept for only 2 hours! Had french toast made by darl's parents, and milo for breakfast (:
Ah, we forgot to take a group photo! :(

Went home and met again for shopping at Bugis. Mum was fine and back to normal after i got home :D Darl didn't come as she was ill. Rest more and get well soon darl! (:
Was quite a fruitful trip for me, as i bought a dress, a jacket, and a top.

Oh and we managed to find a job as a surveyor! Thanks so much Xun Zheng, for the recommendation and details :D

Another bill from a killer
Turned a thriller to a tragedy

Unemployed
Friday, November 21



Randomly dug out this childhood collection, and remembered that i was such a fan of pokemon when i was in lower primary :D I couldn't find some missing figurines!
Found this too. My colouring during lower primary not bad hor? :P


Behold.. my new camera! :DDDD

It might seem quite surprising to see me having a pink thing, but it's the first one to catch my attention, so yeah. Chio hor?

However, i'm still madly in love with this, T2 white. More chio! It's not sold in stores anymore and considered outdated, BUT I STILL LIKE IT ALOT ALOT. Regretted not doing more research and looking for it online or at more places. :(
Regret alot okay! People who know about T2 or have it, tell me that it sucks, tell me. Might make me feel better.
And my current one, the macro function is kinda sucky, the exposure sucks after i transfer the photos into my computer, and it's quite lag :( Or maybe i have high standards. Anyway, some close-up pictures will still be great as i'll still be using the macro of my old Lumix DMC-FX2 at home (:

For some pictures, he was trying the Smile Shutter function, that snaps when you smile.

Been job hunting with dearie & ed for the past 3 days, i think.
Tuesday, darl & laogong/laopo found a job for sales and telemarketing, and asked us to go for the interview too, while they already started their training. We 3 wanted telemarketing, but thought it was 6 days a week, so wanted to look for job at orchard. Wasn't successful, so went for the telemarketing interview at raffles place. That stupid company was difficult to find, and I WAS WEARING HEELS. Yes, as i always say, HEELS KILL. The pain on my feet was horrible, every step was painstakingly done. Kept whining like hell =x Filled the application form, got a short briefing, and then got the standard line: "We'll inform you by this week." After the day, i had 10 blisters on my feet.

Yes, 10 of these, but others aren't as big. My feet are gonna have countless scars man, adding the previous scars from the several mosquito bites T.T

Wednesday, mum brought me to the British Embassy to renew my passport early in the morning. Then she brought me to a place that she liked alot recently for the food, Liang Court near clarke quay. Bought a cute pencil case, had nice jap food, and nice dessert (:

After that, played psp at mum's office at orchard to wait for dearie & ed to finish paying their dance fees, and joined them later for job hunting again. This time, we went tanjong pagar after calling a company found on newspaper. Filled application form, short briefing, then "We'll inform you by next week."
Headed to suntec to continue looking for job. Applied for Toys R Us. Dearie and i wanted to work at kbox alot! And they're hiring! But must be 17 and above. :( x 10
The food there was damn tempting but we had to save money!! But filial me still bought donuts back for my mum to eat (:

Thursday, went IKEA to eat with dearie & ed. Swedish meatballs & Poached Salmon are love! :D We're spending so much before even earning D: Walked around at Anchorpoint & Queensway shopping centre, and i'm happy i bought my grey + red FBT :DDD

Ed put the bag on my head when i was smsing. Lol.


Mum came to meet us, so we went back to IKEA for dinner, while the 2 joined us and sat there looking through newspaper for jobs. All went back in mum's car (:

See how pathetic we are!!! (Cries out loud)
Wanna lend us a helping hand? ^^
If yes, please please please tell us if there's any job with 3 vacancies to recommend. Will be much appreciated!

By the way, this photographer creates wonders.

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died
