family

I am in macdonald now. Sipping on the disgusting ice latte, which I vow never to touch it again. I should be at work now. I went. But found out that my laptop is missing, no things to do. So the lady asked me to go for lunch. Right, so I am obediently seating in mac now. Haha.

It was my last time sending my fav boy up his sch bus just now. I feel a bit sad that I have to explain to him that "it's not that jie jie dun want you anymore." I promise him that if I finish my work next week, I will be at his service again. As for the girl, she dun really care I guess. Haha. Had not been interacting much with her since taking up a extra job. She understands that I need to go home and stay so my dog will like me again. Haha. So cute!! Baby ar baby! It's sad that I am moving home too. After all, I am like part of the spottiswood household after staying there for 7 months. But I can't deny that I feel happy too. Happy that I no longer have to rush about, shout and scream at the kids, hear the naggings (I am mean ok)...

Signing off with "photograph" playing now.

Last day

I am having lunch now in my office pantry. One person seating on a foldable chair, facing the white wall. Sounds pathetic huh? Haha. But I dun mind this kind of life. I know some of you can't...

Saturday was pre camp dinner. Not many turned up. But of those that turned up, I think we mixed quite well together. There were 2 ns guy, so their topic was obvious. A few girls there, mostly talking about cca. Yawnz.... And oh, my ogl actually came late when she is one the organizer. So trustworthy wah?! And the funny thing is that after the bill at fish and co, there was an extra if like 10 bucks. No one claim it. Haha. Rich ppl school I guess... And in my group there is this guy who drives a two sitter porshe. Wat man?!

My camp will be from Thursday to Saturday. It's going to be at east coast! Like SHIT!! I hate to bath in those public toilet. And sleeping in tents?! So totally not my cup of cake please they were saying that the camp won't be fun, it's more of a learning camp.

I am typing this entry now. When I get wireless access, I will post it. This company still running on a 256 modern. PATHETIC!!!

It's my last day working at grandma house today. I will move home officially tomorrow. Hmmm, I think I will miss the 2 kids, my grandma and aunts. Obviously right?! Since I have been staying here for about 6months.

It will be a start of a new life tmr. I plan to chiong finish my work and nua at home for a week before sch start. Give me the energy to finish my job!

I am at ice cream gallery now. Well, my best buddy is not here though. Was going home from town, so I decided to drop by since there is nothing to do at home.

Anyways, went to jj college day today. Oh, what a waste of time man! It's my first and last time collecting an award in this school. And the impression, not to good. Haha. Anything with association with jj will never impress me. I am bias!! Watever! Wonder what the cash prize will be. Will be checking my bank account anxously on that! Haha. I am money face! If the money is good, I will be deeply impress though. Hoe Han was there, sitting beside, so not soo boring. Saw my "most favourite and fabulous" teacher too!! Haha.

After that, went to eat with my mum at Amoy then we went home. Played with my new lappie and went to alter my pants again! Haha. The uncle know me already, so I will get discounts. Joking...

Met mic at orchard after that. As usual she is late, and had a flat battery. That's her style!! We went shopping and eating. Quality time!!! =) oh, we look like lesbian partner today. We took turns to carry shopping bag. And she shove me a paper and ask me to pay for her necklace.

Alright, my peach melba and chocolate ice cream is melting. Next week, will be the end of my job at grandma place... 再见!

7 months

7 months as a baby seater and the end result is, a very spoilt aunt. My aunt brings home the bread and butter for the kids, but she hardly spread the butter on the bread. That's my thought. It's not that she dub care, just lazy to do. Yes, I am rude to put this here. But I just need an outlet.

When I am no longer a seater, I wonder who will suffer? Mind you, I do not think that I am indispensable.

Anyways, I am going to some smu talk tmr. Yea, such a nerd to go for
all the compulsory talk hor!

work and lmy

its 1139pm already! for the past few day at this time, i am long in dream land already. working at both ends is tiring!

i am happy to say that i will be able to complete my data entry job tmr. no more name card scanning and staring into the computer for X hours. this is certainly unhealthy, esp to a person with one good eye only. Working there is good, because i get free lunch from my aunts. so i guess working at orchard road is not bad, provided that my aunts do not change job.

Lmy came to find me for lunch on tuesday. she came all the way from boon lay just to have lunch with me. help me to collect my school leaving cert as well. such an irony that she din get to collect hers, as she still owe the sch a library book. haha. we lunch-ed, crap-ed, laugh-ed and parted. though meeting time was short, it was quality time. since we had not seen each other for at least a month. i gave her a card which touched her as it shows how much i cherish our friendship. THANK YOU FOR COMING ALL THE WAY TO HAVE LUNCH!

updating

hello. i am not dead yet. haha. its been a tiring week for me, despite not working on Friday. but there does not mean slacking at home you know. was rushing here and there before settling things. blame it on poor time management on my part.

anyway, it was Melissa's birthday yesterday. thankfully, it did not rain for the majority of the night. thus, we were able to carry out our plan. Overall, i think it was a great day yesterday. just that the food and cake did not taste too great and they were over price. Next time i will buy from other hawker center, not the tourist-tee Lau Pa Sat, or even prepare myself. other than that, the atmosphere was quite good. After the cbd picnic, we went to eski bar. we were not seated in the icy area, i doubt we can take the cold there too. went home shortly and spent 8bucks on cab fare!
i have a new phone, not surprising right?! But its a SAMSUNG
5mp phone! Eye brow raised?! haha. but currently, i sill do not see the quality its supposed to have. very frustrating, when you have a good phone, but not being able to maximise its performances. i wonder if its my settings or i have a faulty camera. most probably the former reason.

if it all goes well, i might be meeting my buddy on Tuesday. that ass hole, she change hp number without informing ppl! hey, how am i suppose to contact you then?! SAY SORRY! haha. but thankfully, there is msn. which we used efficiently this early morning to arrange a meet up and do a favour for me.

In macdonald

Ha... Its the last birthday of July. Hopefully all things go well for the birthday girl and the organizers for the day. Feeling much more relief now. Not only because the money spending month is over, its also because I have settled by school things!

Yes, I am ready to start school! In a months time, that will be greater challenge ahead. Wonder what kind of friends I will meet, esp project mates. After hearing those horror story by rs and co. . Anyway, smu has this online thing that allow you to view the photos of those in the sch. So I saw one of my childhood playmate there. Haha. And searching for my bro gf in the same block as me.

Work has been going well I guess. No major issues with the software. I am afraid that I will not be able to get things completed by sch start. But I am prepared to go back to work even aft 16aug, because the travelling time is short. I want the cash man! Haha. And mic, not that I dun want to intro you. But there is sombody ready to take over me should I not complete the job.

On a Random note, 5 years in sec sch has been the best part of my life so far. Despite all the shi, there are many sweet as well.. And it will remain the best for many years to come.

I am typing this on my 20min journey, so its a long post.

explaining to the 7 year old

i was explaining to the boy about the importance of English. thats because he always frown, complain and become grouchy when he have to do his tuition homework. school homework are chicken feet for him. so i use the analogy of playing Mario. if you don't do well in English and do well for others subject, it will be like jumping past 3 holes and falling into the last right in front of the flag. then i told him he will have that type of "AIYAH" feeling. haha. alternatively, you can also put it that i cant jump the first hole, but i know i can do it for the next 3 holes. all in all, it sums up that after all the hard work, you will fail and crumble because of that ultimate one! is that not a pity?! you tell me...

i find this very relevant to me. not that i am blaming anyone or anything. so i do not want Brandon to follow my footsteps!

class girls

so its seems most probable that 1/3 of the class girl will be coming to meet me for lunch/coffee today. i don't mean specially coming down just to have lunch with me... while all of them have stop working and preparing for the new school term, i am still slogging right up to the last minute. for the past 6months it has been the reversed situation. example, i meet lmy for lunch at tanjor pagar. its the other way round now. haha. i think its ok, since school do not start till 18Aug. also, i would prefer to go to school awake and alive. i think i was not for the past few months.

oh oh, there is the lesbian party at zouk tonight. i wanna go, but afraid that i will be a zombie tomorrow. how? ARGH! see first then. mic hates this line. haha.

at work

i am blogging from my workplace. everyone is having meeting, that leaves me alone. not that i want to slack, just that i have not got what i am supposed to be working on. on while waiting, i am typing this.

went for smu matriculation yesterday, and completed it today. so tiring! took me about 3 hours yest, there was a lot of ppl. had to attend the compulsory voluntarism talk. thank god the talk was something i have interest in. its about saving the marina. volunteers go out to do patrols on bikes and boat to clear rubbish and be steward to the water environment. the talk end at about 5. went to collect my pants and took a cab home from Funan. the taxi fare came up to 10.30!! luckily i have a free hour now to pay for that. haha. went back to smu today for the library orientation, before coming here. and there are thing undone still... sight... after matriculation, there are more activities. there is a talk on career service. a 3d2n compulsory camp. and a convocation which requires me to be in formal wear. sucks sucks!!! got to spend money and buy clothes again!

i took about 15mins to explore smu today. its nice! and i got my matriculation card. the picture dun look too good. as usual. my eyes were kinda out of focus. ok, i am looking forward to Saturday! all the cakes, snacks and precious DOTS time. haha.

Life

It had been a busy week for me. And there will be a few more busy week before school starts. My boss has asked me to commit for another 1 mth or so! Love to hear that! It means: cash rolling, rolling.oh ya, my boss is not bad I think.so far i have not heard my aunt complaining about her... She allows me have a higher pay. And she thinks that I am some secondary school kid, so she got a shock when I told her I am starting school in smu. Haha. But I am also worried about losing this job, because of my irregular work hours, 12-530.

Hy was asking me if I am excited or scared to start school. I am not to sure about this question. Mix feelings I guess. On one hand I worry about the new 'friend' I will be meeting and whether I will be able to cope in school. On the other hand, I am excited that my life is finally moving on! Having been stuck at the same status for 8 mths- 'waiting for uni entry', I will finally become an undergraduate. Haha. Excited about the challenges in school as well.

Setting aside work and personal feeling, let ne talk more about my social life. Fri, met mic at ICG. We walk to town after that. Sat down with a big glup and talk. Its always fun talking to her, cause we are basically free to express our thoughts. Dun have to be tactful. A short time spent together, but will look back always on such quality time. Sat, met HY! It was a very last min meeting. She is the only one that can come down to raffles city in 1/2 hour call. We had mos burger, something that she induced in me because she love chilly dog a lot last time. We chat and bought art materials for those July babies! Excited to see it?! Haha. As for later, I will be meeting freddy. Lmy went missing, so she is probably not coming. These 2 are my jc gang.

For once, July seem good with all those birthdays... The dots will clock in record number of meeting time. Haha. Despite the $ outflow, time spent together will be priceless. Since everyone is so concerned with their after-secondary school socializing. Haha. Am I right?!

I will throw in a last quote that pretty much sum up my last 7 month.
"BRANDON, YOUR MAID AR?!"
yes a maid, a high class one.

My part time job

Want to know of my part time job?! Then read on!!

Haha. My part time job is one created by errors.

The first thing I did was to stick correction stickers. The error was
due to the fact that the company over printed their expensive travel booklet. So instead of throwing about 2700 of them away, they hired me to change the promotion date.

Next, packing key chains. Intially, they gave out the keychain without processing it. Direct from the factory in china to the consumer. Feedback was not good. So, I got the job to beautify the key chain.

The next segment I will embark on is not on human error. Its the name card scaner error. Had it been able to scan with 100% accuracy, I might not land the job.

So here I am sitting ,gloating on others' error and counting my cash.

And i am too productivity... probably going to earn less money. SHIT!

myra's birthday

my jelly. if i could, i would put my signature on it. everyone was praising it i think. see a RA there? i form it using pomegranate fruit. never see before right?!

the birthday girl like the "cake." thats good!

the gang!

the gang minus thy.

my birthday cake and a false smile. haha.

so, it was Myra's birthday celebration yesterday, although her birthday is today. apparently, she had two celebration prior to yesterday's. one with her poly mate and another with her parents. We had at dinner at the Japanese place with marche concept. i must say that, that place is smelly! i think all of us had a great time catching up with one another. we did the usual, eating, pinching each other food and laughing at one another. oh ya, candles should actually be recycled, as in reuse for the next birthday. i think this hold a more significant value than just celebrating birthdays!

anyway, in any of my homemade present, i would appreciate that the person look more at the thoughts and effort, rather than the aesthetic of the object.

started with my part 2 of part time work yesterday, mind you, i am still baby sitting. though not really part of the environment (i mean, who cares about a part timer), its nice to observe the dynamics of office life- ie. how ppl interact and norms in office i would call. and i embarrassed myself yesterday, trying to open a locked door. Argh.

Read this: http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/Movies/9902/10/annabel.chong/
i salute her courage and insanity.but, surely there are other ways to conduct such experience right?! HCI and Raffles Girls should actually disowned her. haha. its a bit/very noob to know of this thing only now.
