Y Monsoon Season. Monsoon BONANZA!
brr. it's a cold cold cold sunday. it's been raining meows and woofs since yesterday. what a nice weather to snuggle in bed. aww.

tskk.
saturday (7/1):
supposed to wake up only at 11am to meet nnp for our lil shopping spree. but then mery called and asked if i can make it for work earlier, but because i've promised to meet nnp thus i rejected her. haha! riight, went to get ready before going out to meet nnp downtown at about 1pm. had our lunch in Mos Burger @ Taka, before we dropped by Ngee Ann City's X!Capade organised by our school. there's nothing much to see there actually. saw a few familiar faces there, and we did not stay on to watch any of the shows anyway. sigh, too bad i'm working if not i wanna stay and support neeky's dance performance with the NRA! argh.
okay, after that we went to shop around. saw lots of bags but none looks appealing to me at all! it then began to pour, and it was about time for me to leave for work. and, we left town empty-handed! argh. but still, we managed to take neos. the prints turned out to be super white! but still, not bad lah. teehee. (: 



waited for li'e for a few minutes before we walked into conrad at 5ish. went to change and straight away went to the ballroom to report. settled the napkins for awhile and we had our briefing my ramesh. he briefed us about some previous hiccups and 2005's productivity and assigned us our tables. WAHAHA. ramesh was sooooooo good to me last night, because he assigned me to partner with sathis at north room somemore. then when he's double checking the staffing, he was saying we were too strong and that we'll have good life today. true enough!! haha. (:
went to usher at the stairs aftermath till 8ish before azman (our new trainee captain) sent me back in. azman's a very nice guy actually. haha, and what amazed me was that he speaks chinese! haha. riight, when i went back to my tables, most of the beverage were done. waha, that's the advantage of having an old bird partner. :x when i was standing by my side station, samsi suddenly told me this. "you know sayang? i walked around and observed. i still think you've got the tiny-est mouth among all the girls here. " i was like, wth?! haha! alright, dinner began and everything went on ultra smoothly for me. sathis was fast and efficient. halfway through, jing xuan came to the bar to slack after she came back from OC. since my station was near to the bar plus sathis was so fast, i went out to chit-chat with her sometimes. that was when everyone planned to go for supper after work. lol.
alright, dinner ended at 10ish. to cut down hotel's costs, most of the staffs were sent back right after dinner, whereby only a few of us stayed on till 12mn to turn over everything. steve got me to did the linen stuffs, then tidied salon 5 and we were off. after li'e and i got changed, we waited for jingxuan&co. at suntec convention bus stop. the new barman, steve sim, and melvin were there too. initially, we thought there'll only be the 5 of us going out for supper but it turns out to be one whole big group of them! about 10 or more or less? i forgot. they were all their friends. haha. steve drove a lorry to pick us up. everyone stayed in the east, except for me so they suggested having supper in yishun. for that, i feel damn paiseh lah.
li'e and i took the front sit, because li'e was wearing skirt and i had to lead the way to yishun. according to steve, he's a road idiot. LOL! riight, so i led him to CTE (ang mo kio) and all the way to yishun. and we had the famous chong pang nasi lemak. woohoo, yummylicious! steve is a very friendly guy. he clicks with us super well. and he's funny! and his ex girlfriend happens to stay at the block behind mine! brought back his sad memories. oops. anyways, when we were halfway eating, the skies became damn red and they were rushing us to eat faster. but guess we were too slow, because the next moment it began to pour! we brought everything into the shelter and continued eating before we left at 2ish.
everyone were trying to settle down at the back with brolleys and all. all their belongings were left in front of cause. on the way back to my house, i called my brother to standby one stack of newspapers and wait for us downstairs. steve sent me back and i got the newspapers from my brother and passed to jing xuan at the back of the lorry. haha, poor things. they were drenched! alright, so i came home and bathe and went to bed immediately.
sunday (8/1):
i've set my mobile alarm at 9am today, as i wanna go have my hair cut before meeting twinny they all. but i overslept!! guess my phone slides under my pillow that's why i couldn't hear the alarm when it rang. by the time my mom woke me, it was already 10ish! that was when i decided to postpone my haircut to tuesday. went to changed while waiting for li'e to reach my place before taking the train together to meet twinny and zhi yong at ten mile junction. it was raining heavily man. and the 2 of us were like some moutain terters invading the west area. haha. the north and east terters. yay! o.Ov
it was 12ish when we got to ten mile juntion. had our lunch in the foodcourt before we entered sheng siong to shop for what we need for our ice cream stall tomorrow. we were comparing prices, so we bought the stuffs at wherever's cheaper. at sheng siong, we only bought the ice cream spoons. then, the excitement came. it was still raining pretty heavily, so we can't possibly wait for the rain to stop which i doubt it will ever stop tonight. li'e and i decided to take up the challenge and sit zhi yong's lorry to our next destination - IMM and JEC.
twinny and zhi yong sat in front of cause. li'e and i laid all the newspapers we've got at the back, threw our stuffs, watches and everything in front with twinny, took our our brolleys and off we went. zhi yong drove and we were sitting at the back like two pathetic drenched chickens. hahaha. on the way, we were giggling and screaming like mad-tards. it's funny okay. it's actually a fun experience. haha. when the lorry's moving, it's freaking cold alright. we were shivering like mad, yet laughing like mad! :x and also, the water's getting to our pants and our butts were "shivering" too. all's wet alright. hahahahaha.
finally, we alighted at IMM first, bought nothing and went for the second round on the lorry. this time round we weren't even ready yet then zhi yong start the lorry. we were trying to open up our brolleys and were a lil more drenched. haha! went to the RedMan to buy the rest of the stuffs that we need, before taking a rest in JEC to calculate and plan all the necessary. li'e took train home from there, whereas i tong pang zhi yong's lorry back to bukit batok to take 852 home. this time round was better, because i took the front seat with twinny. haha! that was when lu hua called to ask how's it going for us, and be nice and remind me of the cold weather and stuffs. hahaha, he's doing that because yesterday for the whole night i was complaining that he has changed and bu teng wo le. hahaha, nevermind about that.
got home at 6ish, and i just treated my parents dinner downstairs. oh, we've bought something pretty for my brother's girlfriend, angelia's, 21st birthday. teehee. oh man, we've yet bought zhe bin's. their birthdays fall on the same day alright. same age somemore. lol. hmm. speaking 'bout birthdays, jae actually remembers mine. he ought to remember anyways, 'cause our birthdates are the same. the difference is only the month. (: here's the convo. he was sending me alicia key's unplugged album. all the tracks.
