The Art of Getting By








no one wants to watch hall production isit??

Wednesday, January 30, 2008

Knock knock

"We're selling hall production tickets. By the way it's compulsory for all residents to attend and bring a friend along."

Wtf. Hellooooo as a business team you are supposed to do your marketing and publicity to ensure enough people turn up, not make it compulsory for everyone to come. And must bring a friend somemore! Freaking ridiculous! I can already tell her not to count on that. Besides, tickets are released to the public too, so if they are not going to put effort in pushing sales to the public instead, only half of the performance hall will be filled up loh.

i do like being alone

Tuesday, January 29, 2008

Recently i realized i have a lot of peaceful "alone" time, where i just sit in my room blog stalking, making trinkets or reading. Not many people here left to disturb anymore, most of them have left hall or on exchange.

I do awfully enjoy these alone times though. Being able to do your own thing at your own time is such a privilege in hall.

Don't you think i'm getting old.

Ashley and i spotted a milo van at central forum at a distance, and we made a mad dash across the road to frantically grab a precious green paper cup each to fill them with brown chocolatey goodness. I was greedy, i refilled 4 cups of milo, and we both stood there, enjoying the moment despite being 10mins late for class. After that my stomach felt funny.

So much for 4 cups of chocolatey goodness.

And my lecture mates are mean. They pointed at me and said "chicken pox chicken pox" in the nyeah nyeah ni nyeah nyeah kinda tone. Dear aunt agony, i am a victim of school bully.

pox

Sunday, January 27, 2008

I have just been rejected chicken pox immunity! The receptionist said it's too late to receive the jab cos the virus may be incubating already. She then happily quipped that it's ok if i get it cos the doctor will medicate me -_- My nephew is allowed to roam around the house despite his "disease" cos my mum claims that he is "active" and "will be bored if isolated in a room". Ok, i guess the danger of my sister and i getting chicken pox is far more acceptable than my nephew getting bored. He even came into my room when i wasn't around. I hope he is entertained enough.

Gah i feel the lousiest of the lousiest now. I watched this hk drama where some woman tried to rescue people from a car accident and got herself wounded. She later found out that one of the casualties had HIV and she might have been infected too. She lived the next few days of her life in fear and illusion. This is exactly how i'm feeling since friday!!!!

But at least her boyfriend was willing to accompany her to the doctor's. ><

the irony of life

Saturday, January 26, 2008

You see, i was sick, so i went home on friday afternoon instead of the usual saturday. But it so happened that my nephew who stays in my house most of the time, was diagnosed with chicken pox on friday night. Between the time i reached home and he reached the doctor, we were playing online mahjong together in close contact. Ahhhhhhh i tell you i've never gotten chicken pox in my life!!!!! Neither have my sisters, either we are immune or plain lucky that we never came across infected kids in our entire lives. My mum said that when we were young my neighbour had chicken pox, so she purposely brought us over to her house so that we could get infected and get it over and done with as kids. But apparently we were too strong.

But that was then! This is now! I am already sick, my immune system has been severely disrupted. I came home to get better and now i might possibly have already been infected with worse! Ah, the irony of life.

By the way, blue's clue! Here's the link to my new accessories blog where you can see my bags!
dancingardangel.livejournal.com
I've changed site but lazy to update haha... my old site has a link too anyway.

Pray for me hope i don't get chicken pox ok!!!!!!!

Sunday, January 20, 2008

i'm depressed. save meeee

Wednesday, January 16, 2008

Aiya. I wonder how long more i'll keep feeling like this. Stagnant and the need to move somewhere in life. I suspect that i'm depressed cos i have absolutely got no interest plus nothing to look forward to in the near future (my near future means like next 3 months or so). I'M DEPRESSED! I'm not even looking forward to Dance Uncensored which must be the most exciting thing already. I'm one of those people who live lives looking forward to the next thing worth looking forward to.

Oh dondon says he'll bring me to T3 this week i'm actually quite looking forward to it. Dondon is the 2nd nicest person to me in the world (1st is my mummy lah). Sushi sashimi and soba makes me excited too. But that's about all, really. I'm still convinced that i'm depressed.

I've finally gotten all 5 modules, 2 of them are back ups cos i didn't manage to win the bids :( Hmph. Ok but at least i get to graduate now. Taking many classes with keelong the gay pornstar and ashley the bimbo, they can't stop talking about sex in class. College students are all sex-crazed.

i miss my lecturer

Saturday, January 05, 2008

I am shameless!

There's this module i took last sem which i didn't go for most of the classes. Some nights ago i dreamt of the lecturer as a dashing judo instructor (i told tina about this), and now i missed him so much i wanna take his continuing module this sem. But i have no face to see him cos i never took his last module seriously. Plus this one got no chance to SU!

Haha! Anyway dondon is back, having conquered this

I'm not sure which one of the peaks but she's called Ao Tai Na. Apparently this mountain has a sister called Ao Tai Mei. Her mum is Ao Tai Ma and the dad is Ao Tai something. They are a family of mountains!

Yay dondonisbackdondonisbackdondonisbackdondonisbackdondonisback. I behave like a baby in front of him sometimes but he lets me. I better not do that too often.

smug retail assistant

Wednesday, January 02, 2008

Haha! Have you ever had this feeling when you encounter a haughty person, but have no idea what this person has to be arrogant about? I met one in runwaycity, an online community where people post their recent fashion buys and recommend shopping places. I posted my very proud purchase of my new small Guess handbag which was on 50% DISCOUNT!!! Woohoo discounts are the greatest. Pear bought one after me too! :) And i commented that despite the big sale where everyone tramples over and throws around the handbags on the sales rack, i was happy that they still had new pieces hidden in the storeroom.

THEN this funny person came up and said "New pieces from the store aren't much better than those displayed. We trample all over them esp when everything's in a mess and that usually happens during sales. Personally, I think your bag looks tacky."

How dare she thinks my bag is tacky! It's on 50% DISCOUNT ok and it's not tacky cos i bought it and if i bought it means it's the best thing in the world.

So i said "I don't see how u can do that except if you get to trample in the storeroom and unwrap all their goods. I meant "new pieces" by what people usually know of "new pieces". Personally, i like my bag! :)"

Well i already know that she probably works there. And true enough, "Needless to say, I know because I work there (:"

Until here, i'm already feeling a bit confused. Do you too feel the smugness in her? I mean, er ok you work in Guess probably 12 hours a day 6 days a week drawing a salary of slightly more than a thousand (just an estimation based on retail). What do you have to be so proud about? I would if i design the bags and make decisions that gives me a 5-figure sum and share the profits of the company.

I replied "oh dear that has certainly damaged my impression of the quality of Guess' goods and service personnels! Maybe i should ask them about it. At least my new piece(or so i thought) was sealed and looks fine though..."

And she further confirmed her lack of qualifications to be arrogant "Nah, it's not only Guess. Happens everywhere. Apparently, you haven't been a retail assistant before. I only brought this up because consumers always seem to have the misconception that "new pieces" from the store is always "better" in every way and it just makes them so happy when they get a "new" piece from store haha it's really funny."

If i were her, the only reason i'd be this smug will probably be cos all my friends work in Giordano or HangTen but i get to sell clothes in Guess and trample over the goods! I am so proud!!

Anyway i said "nope i haven't and i never want to be one. rather be on the buying side. hmm well i guess but customers aren't as stupid as you think because we do check these "new pieces" before purchase and mine was obviously "newer" than the worn out one on display."

We'll see if she replies haha... I know, bitch fest! And you wonder why the standard of retail service in Singapore is like shit? It's pretty obvious, really. So now make sure your "new piece" is really "new" and don't be too overjoyed about it ok if not the retail assistants will think you're funny.
