spent a very lazy Monday at home. was sposed to call n make appointments with companies for this new part time job that i took on. sth like telemarketing, onli that it's on my own time, own target. i get paid $6 for every successful appointments made n if i made more than 8 appts, i get $10 for each, an increase by $4. well, i thot i was smart enough to think of a plan to earn more money out of this part time job as i got a few more of my frens interested to work so that accumulatively we could get more than 8 for a day.

alas, today is day one trial session, n we did miserably. there were onli both of us to start off with, but the list that the company gave me was a repetitive lot. so many of them were jus branch outlets of one main company.. haiz.. me now not sure bout how tis fren of mine feels about continuing doing this kind of job. cos the success rate is very low indeed.. sighh.. i guess i was a lil too optimistic about this job.. dang..

anyway, tmr i start working at coop again.. hehehe.. i know, i know.. i'm jus way too popular with part time jobs.. well, in the meantime while waiting for full time employment ba.. dang, how come no replies so far wan? my resume mus b very lousy.. :(

well, this week has been an exciting one, i guess. met up with my biomed batchmaties on wed for dinner, then thot that i would spend an evening over at orchard either in kino or in borders or in both, given that i would hav much time after the dinner. my frens were sposed to watch van helsing in cineleisure at 720pm, but then their movie time got delayed due to lack of good seats. so well, we had more time to catch up n talk with one another. n for the first time this semester, there were quite a big group gathering. though only 8 ppl, this is already a quarter of the biomed class.. hehe..

then got the excitement of that day. i lost my hp. i realised that onli when i parted with my frens to go n soak myself with some good browsing in the bookshop. man.. i panicked right off. i had no idea where, how, or when i lost it. i called my phone n it rang but no one answered the calls. this could be a good sign that no one had got hold of my phone yet. i guessed it might hav been in marche when my bag dropped to the floor. so i dashed all the way back, hoping all the while to get my phone back. this is not the season for me to be getting a new phone. then back at marche where we sat, i couldnt find it anywhere on the floor. i panicked even more, then i asked the waiter if anyone reported to have found a hp though i knew chances were slim. yeps, no report was made. probably the hp was then safely in someone's pocket. then i was directed to the manager on duty, and he tried to calm me down. hehh.. guess my face showed how terribly worried i was. he tried calling my hp again before getting down my contacts.. and amazingly the person picked up the call!

so that led me to dash all the way to pheonix hotel, where a man named mr lau had my hp with him. the manager din ask what his dresscode was like so i had no idea what this mr lau looked like. so at the hotel lounge i looked around a bit, but no one seemed to be holding my phone, so unabashedly i had to ask the hotel management to lend me their phone. all the while i was fearful that the man might change his mind n keep the phone for himself. so as i called, i looked around to see if anyone was answering the hp in the lounge, but mr lau was actually in the carpark, or so i found out, and that he would drive down to the front of pheonix before leaving the premises. gosh, i was so thankful. so i waited outside, n mr lau could even guessed i was the owner as he beckoned me to move towards his car as it came out from the carpark. guess my face had a big panic look on it.. haha..

phew.. n that was how i got my darling hp back.. so good to hav it back again... safe! but well, i was too tired n sweaty to be able to enjoy kino or borders so after that i went home. haiz.. a wasted trip to orchard, but well.. u dun always get such kind of adventurous experience.. hehe..

watched shrek2 oredi with my bro n his gf, it being her bday today.. hehe.. sometimes it's really great watching with my bro cos he's the one paying.. n shrek2 is really funny!!! definitely better than shrek1. i love it, i love it, i love it.. hehehe.. cant wait for my 2nd bro's vcd then i can watch it again n again... hehehe.. shant spoil it for all of u, so u guys better go n watch it.. :)

darn those kids. i know, i usu dun get angry at kids cos they're so angelical n like cutie pies to me.. but today.. man, they spoilt my show.. the one with my fave actor in it.. kept talking at the back.. man.. for once, the seats far away from the screen is not worth its money.. dang those kids.. now i guess i know how mr J felt in his entry last time bout noisy audience. sighz!.. but brad pitt is so gorgeous. haiz.. too bad he has to die.. now me itching to know bout the history.. i've always been fascinated about ancient mythology n legends n stuff like that.. well, i shd jus go n read bout it.. a day in borders or kinokuniya sounds welcoming.. hehehee..

hmmm.. i've been working part time for five days now. and all i can conclude is that i'm quite gullible, n i'm easily flattered.. hahaa.. first one was for being tricked ever so often, either by my boss, or by the other people there.. even got fooled by the myanmar guy who told me he's from johore.. haiz.. so now, mus double chk.. hehe.. then also, when the guys there say things like i look young... wait, or rather that one guy say that i'm young in my character.. haha.. nothing to do with looks.. well, i was also flattered then.. hehh.. well, he's making me feel too good about myself.. sighz.. it's so easy to flatter me.. i shd put on my guard though i dun think they are serious bout anything.. hehehe.. but they're nice ppl to know still.. :)

conclusion: i'm still learning much from life about myself, and about other things. life still holds so much more things yet unknown, yet to be discovered... hmm...

i guess i aint that good at waitressing no more.. cant rmbr myself trembling so much when serving ppl, esp when re-filling their cold drinks. i had to tell myself to steady my hands, dun shake, dun b afraid. haiz.. but it's still a thrill though. it might get routine, but the customers always change so u meet different ppl all the time. some are nice, talkative, smiley.. while most jus want to be left alone with the other person (usu my guess is someone special to them.. hehe..). what makes my day at that place immensely would b the company i work with. guess this is very much the same in the lab. yea, a conducive working environment is impt to me. i like the ppl there.. heck, even my eccentric boss who sings like he's in a karaoke bar when no one is in the shop, n who also likes to call me 'brother'.. n i jus found out today, he does that to other girls as well.. phew.. :P

oh well.. mus really start thinking bout my full time job soon.. hehe.. havnt sent out any applications yet.. heck, even my resume is not done yet.. hehe.. will get that done tonite.. many lsm students n even my batchmates hav started applying liaoz... hmm... :S

i prefer this world to be simpler. boy likes girl. girl likes boy. and they live happily ever after. that will be good n simple. but in this world, that doesnt happen often enough. well, u get a mixture of boy likes girl, and girl likes boy, but they dun end up tgether, or mb they like a different person. that's sad. sigh, been having too much movies lately on the vcd.. planning to catch up with them all before i really start working. but i dun quite like my stale life now, in between post-uni and pre-work, it's like being held up in limbo (reminds me of rasputin in that dreadful place in anastasia).

o well, there's a part time job to look forward to later today. hope that will spice things up. anyway, a lot of nitty stuff to settle ard here, jus lazy to get down to it. sigh indeed!

decided to walk back in the rain from Steffy's place. spent the nite there cos i felt that PGP was too empty, too quiet for my liking, plus my room was in a deranged mess. well, i'm shifting out today, so that's that. the end of my school life. the end of my campus life. i'm going to stay out, move on about in life. wonder about life mysteries. yea, i'm feeling lost too. need to find a bearing in my life again. gosh, i hate changes. i hate it when i get all so comfy in my environment, things hav to change, people hav to change.. things mus go on, ppl mus go on.. this is life ba, i guess.

haiz.. okie, lemme get on with mission impossible 0147: shifting out. haha.. i wonder why i put myself thru all this torture. my innate stubborn stuck up self ba. hehe.. well, u know what they say, something jus never change *winks*
