New school term

Sally · Monday, June 26th, 2006, 3:14 am · Comments (3)

My entries are getting shorter nowadays, I used to have so much to type. I guess I am just tired.

I reached home at around 1.45am. Did pre-close/closing again. If you want free pastries/cakes/hungry please come to my house. I am flooded with alot of pastries and lots of cheesecakes from Starbucks. I brought home like 9 cheesecakes yesterday. There are so much leftovers everyday we have to throw away, damn heart pain but no choice..we don’t do random distribution of food on the streets.

I worked with my store manager for the first time today. She told me she is pleased with my performance and I exceeded her expectation. OH, she asked me whether am I thinking of climbing upwards..like Coffee Master, learning couch, manager. I told her I would stop at Coffee Master. I want a black apron. AND, she told me there will be a pay raise coming in Sept. Not alot..maybe like $4.90 she said. From the way she told me, it seem like pay raise for everyone is different, depending on your responsibility or something.

School is starting tomorrow, I am not all that excited cos I will be taking a boring subject next block. I am taking Apparel Fundamental next month with year 1s. I hate majority of the year 1s. It is not cos they are freshmen but cos they are so kiddy. I blogged about it before. 1 month passed, damn fast. I wanted to do quite a few things:

  1. get a job (done),
  2. take color photos (quarter done),
  3. practise my illustrator + photoshop
  4. practise my figure drawing.

Time is everyone’s enemy, agree? And I have to wake up early tomorrow to do my CDS proposal. I had a month to do it, last minute work.

Shit..I keep peeing cos I just drank a huge cup of ice coffee. I am changing my phone to a Samsung phone. Enough of swivel Sony Ericsson phones that keep hanging.

Bye, pray for me..to stop peeing. I don’t like cupcakes, do you?

It is 5am

It’s is 5am now, I just bathe cos I just reached home not long ago. Why? Cos I did closing today. It is my first closing shift today.

I was thinking of approaching my manger for a transfer to Campass Point but I think I won’t anymore. I am getting to know the people at my store, they are nice once you get to know them. And I think a brand new environment would do me good too.

I am so tired and sleepy now, my brain is not working. There was a huge slam today, I was at the Frap station, non-stop man..like my own summer party there. I am doing closing again tomorrow.

I just ate a Mango Cheesecake and a Spicy Beef tart thingy. I got lots of Mango Cheesecake at home..anyone wants?
HIGGGGGGGGGGH.

Work tomorrow

I have been really tired to blog.

Nine West said they are going to cut 5 days of my pay. That’s hell lot ok? I am going to fight for it. I don’t care if Claudine loves Nine West and everyone there, I still hate them. I don’t think it’s fucking fair that there was a miscommunication and I didn’t get to voice out my side of the story. I usually work full-shift which means $57.75 per day so how much is 5 days? Fucking assholes, don’t buy shoes from them.

Work at SB Liat Towers was ok, it was my first day there on Wed. I feel the partners there are pretty hostile, the Malay partners to be exact (no racism here, just fact). It’s REALLY busy there..I prefer a low-volume store like Campass Point. ARGH, I don’t think I get transfer..I don’t think my manager will allow. Sian. I think I really want a transfer..how? Someone pray for me.

And my mum might be losing her job, not just the job but her whole career as a teacher.

Off day today. Went tanning with Dixon then Bradley’s house to help his group with his Basic Video project.

If you smoke or drink or do drugs, people will/can find out and stop and help you but if your addiction is in your head, only you and God knows, it’s dangerous. Agree? Wait, do you even get what I am trying to say?

Someone tell me what to do.

Bar test later

Sally · Monday, June 19th, 2006, 2:21 pm · Comments (3)

Just saw the photos from the church camp, looks fun man..wish I went but it’s ok, I stayed behind and earned money.

I am studying for my bar test later. ARGH..I am quite scared..I am worried for my written paper. The old written paper was a simple half an hour (completed in 10 min test) and it’s opened book. Now, 1 hour plus and NO book. Anqi (my manager) wouldn’t be too strict with me..so yes, wish me luck..still.

I haven’t been studying since 2 years ago. I am not used to studying, this feels wierd.

Subject selection on the 23rd, that’s fast.

Burnt my fingerrr

Sally · Sunday, June 18th, 2006, 2:42 am · Comments (1)

It’s 2.26am. I just woke up and bathe. I fell asleep while waiting for the shower and while waiting for my stomach to stop churning badly after the soy milk I drank. I just drank a bit of soursop juice and my stomach is churning again..it’s a washing machine inside!

Yesterday I stayed home the whole day. I was sooooooooo extremely bored. It was my off day/rest day. I continued to be sick and slept alot. I hate sleeping alot, you makes you more tired and you feel like a worm. And I hate sleeping when I have a fever, I can’t get a good sleep cos the heat will wake me up.

Since I was sick on Thursday and couldn’t concentrate on my work, I slammed/jammed my thumb into the ice tube and it bleed. You know the area where your nail grows out from..the cuticle tears? Yes..yucks. And today, while daydreaming at work, I burnt my finger. I turned on the hot boiling water tape and left my hand underneath it. I only realised it like 8s later. It’s swollen now. And not forgetting the first few days of work I jammed my toes beneath the door causing them to be swollen and blue-black. No, I don’t think I am accident-prone, do you think so?

OH I just realised tear (tearing paper) and tears (cry) is the same word!! Ahaha..yes I am very smart.

After work at 7.20pm, I met JJ, Zech, Wei, Jean and Random Boy for dinner at Simpang. Then we went to the playground near Jean’s house and hang out. We passed Jean’s house and saw her dad’s Porsche. I am going to marry into the family…I am going to date Jean’s brother.

I am taking my bar test soon. I am quite worried, I didn’t really have time to practise my bar drinks. I hate test, I hate anything like test or exams or running or rolling down the hill cos I am always the slowest.

Do you have real life friends that sound completely different online and offline? Like they are one person but they are different when they blog/they way they talk to online/overseas friends. I do..I think it’s fucking irritating. Maybe it’s not intentional but it’s just irritating.

Coffee and Cigarettes

Sally · Thursday, June 15th, 2006, 7:25 pm · Comments (0)

I am sick. I have been working, out late, all stressed up so I guess my body just gave way. I have a fever..left work halfway. I hate it when you are sick, your body aching..you can’t breathe properly and you still have to carry dishes, make coffees, be all smiley.

Anyway, training at EP has been ok. I have been late for 3 days already. The manager has been telling me how at Liat Towers it’s alot different blah all. I don’t know whether I am prepared for it man. It’s the busiest store in Singapore, highest demand. And guess what, Campass Point is hiring now..how amazing. If they told me earlier, I would be back there.

You how know things always go the opposite ends? I wanted a new store with all new equipments, all clean and I got the oldest Starbucks in Singapore in the end. I wanted to tan the other day but it poured like never before. I have been late everyday and finally I was half an hour early today but I had to go home cos I am sick.

I have been pretty stressed lately..with all the family shit and personal issues. Good thing I have Dix the sexy dude with me. He won’t be reading this cos he’s off to church camp in Malaysia JB. I didn’t want to go initially cos I felt distant from church people and I don’t wanna feel extra and everything. He convinced me to go yesterday night but it was too late. If only I went away..away from all the shit now. I need a holiday.

No work for me tomorrow, I will go out, I don’t want to be at home.

My dad is knocking on my door, I don’t want to answer.

Oh, Wentworth Miller is voted Sexiest Man on TV. Well, he sure is. He is fucking hot.

Started in-store training

Hello, I just finished batheing. I don’t usually bathe in the afternoon but it’s different tooooday cos I came home from work and I am going to sleep my afternoon awaaaaay.

Yes, I went to work this morning at Eastpoint. I am suppose to wake up at 5.30am so I will be in time for work but I couldn’t wake up so I took a cab down. I was like 10 minutes late for work actually. Anyway, my manager today was a girl called Anqi. She was from Tampines Starbucks, haha..she knows Yvonne Wu..she trained her. My manager is a very loud girl..she is VERY in your face..not in the bad way but she’s definately by far the most loud/direct person I met. She is one of those people that is not shy at all, absolutely no where near. Where am I blogging about her anyway? Training was ok..she knows I was an ex-barista so she went super fast. We covered like half of what I am suppose to complete by next week. Good.

I am quite a slow learner..so it takes me sometime to get used to a new environment and stuff. Like when I started at SB after my O levels back then and Nine West so it feels different this time..like no low-morale cos I screw up something. Do you get what I mean? Anyway, the system is still pretty much the same..just some new drinks, new frap making method, new cup-marking and stuff. And yeah..it feels good to get all the free coffee..haha.
I worked at the condo showflat over the weekends. It’s boring, boring, boring, I hate any job that has something to do with real estate agents or properties unless of cos if you want to give me a condo. I haven’t get my pay cos Mrs Liew didn’t show up AND Nine West haven’t pay me yet damnit.

Does the tongue gets pimples? There’s like a pop-up dot (yes, DOT) on my tongue and it hurts..actually I think it’s just a normal ucler but yeah I wanna make my post more interesting by using interesting terms which of cos didn’t work.

The weather today is peeeeeeeerfect for tanning! It’s been raining everyday since the last time I went tanning with Dix. I am going to tan with Stef tomorrow after work.

Ok there’s nothing else to blog about..I wanna go sleeeeeep.

Oh I wanna talk about my phobias..ok I think phobia is too serious (go check the dictionary for it’s meaning) so fears.
I fear talking on phones: Really, like when when phones rangs, I get scared no matter who’s calling. I really hate talking on phones so I don’t like chatting on phone.

I fear the after movie moment: I don’t know how to put this but yeah..like after movies whether in cinemas or whenever, that moment when all the credits starts coming out.

I fear late afternoons: I fear the afternoon sun, the stillness of the afternoon, the afternoon sunlight. I like afternoons but I am scared of them.

I type nonsense..no wonder no one reads my blooooog.

At Eastpoint

Sally · Saturday, June 10th, 2006, 4:23 am · Comments (1)

It’s 4am. I came home at 7pm, ate and slept all the way till 2am. I was really tired and still am. Have been working/training/home late almost everyday so yes, I deserve my sleep.

Today, my training was in the morning. For the next 5 days, my work will be morning too. BOOOO. I hate waking up for work..school is still ok you know like you don’t need to wear uniforms or be on time..you know. YES, you know.

So today’s my last classroom training. Next week, I will start my training at Eastpoint before heading back to Liat Towers. For my previous training, classroom: spreads over 2 weeks, in-store: spreads over 3 or 4 weeks. Now, classroom: 1 week, in-store: 1 week and 2 days. Yeah..I am packing everything together, I just wanna get my training over and done with cos it’s not as fun as you think to re-train. Plus, I really wanna get out of EP soon, that store is so small and clump and boring. Let’s hope I don’t fail my bar test..that will be damn embarrassing.

So it means I am working the whole of next week including the weekends except Friday. Do ask me out, I still need social life.

Later and Sunday, I will be working for HSR, condo receptionist. It’s the most boring job after telemarketing but it’s easy money so finnnnne. I will be at Residence@Evelyn so if you call the hotline, I will be answering yooou. I really hate the job, the real agents are damn fucking irritating seriously..they are damn fake. It’s really sad, you sit there the whole day and their conversations among each other is how many apartments they sold, what is their commission, gossiping about competitors and blah.

And my mum is back from China and HK. She got me my Escada Signature perfume I always wanted.

I want Escada Pacific Paradise too but she bought wrongly. She bought Escada Jardin De Soleil instead. The damn salegirl insist this is the one (Pacific Paradise has the same bottle but diff. colour). My mum didn’t get the Gucci Envy Me, she says it’s smelly so fine. I don’t like the Jardin De Soleil..it’s a 1996 perfume. It’s too exotic and intense (yeah all the coffee describing terms and I don’t want to say it’s smelly cos I wanna sell it) for me. I think I will sell it at ebay or something. Anyone wants to buy from me?

I love perfumes..I have 9 perfumes now, excluding the funny smelling one (yes the one I am selling). Yeah..no wonder my mum don’t wanna get me Envy Me.

Ok I will go plan my dates and get back to sleep.

Some people are irritating the fuck out of me..I hope you know who you are.
