{Peon At Work - Saturday, June 30, 2007}

What a wonderful change of events! Today as I was about to leave for work, I noticed something different about my car. I NOTICED THAT MY RED RX-8 SUDENLY CHANGED INTO A BLUE SUZUKI SWIFT WTF?!!!! *JOKES*

Nah, I realised that I had a flat tire@!!!! Shit!!! How am I going to work!! Anyway, I changed it. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be but I turned up at work half an hr late lol!

Thought my boss was gonna be pissed because there are tons of deliveries to do around the time I start work and he cannot afford anyone to be absent. But when I got there he wasn't mad or anything and I just continued with the daily dose of work. Phones rang, I answered. I picked up the call of one of the nicest customers ever-an old lady ordering for little kids and herself. She was soooooo nice on the phone! And before I put down, she said to me, "thank you so much for catering to us you have been such wonderful help, have a great night, thanks love..." OMG?????WOW....that put a smile on my face :)

The rest of the night was hectic as Saturday nights always are. The tips were sooooooo good! Got about 20 bucks in tips today! YEY!

Oh well, I'm really tired gonna sleep soon and this blog ends here. Now all I have to do is chase my friend playing DotA out of my room (yes, I blogged using my laptop and a wireless connection). MY HOUSE IS NOT A LANSHOP!!!!!-_-;;

{Holidays - Thursday, June 28, 2007}

Past week has been quite good. I've had some meaningful conversations with my parents and friends too. Really love and miss them dear :). Sometimes I feel so grateful for all my parents have given to me. Often I don't even deserve it, but I guess that's what love and grace is all about. I hope I can squeeze a trip back to Singapore mid July to see them before they jet off to China again. Anyways its cold and gloomy down here. I need a nice tan, the beach and some swimming. Honestly, I can't remember Perth being so wet. It rains almost everyday and its mucky. Hanging clothes to dry, well...doesn't really dry.

As for work, I've been working everyday, gosh money is sooooo hard to earn. It's like, I work my ass off scrubbing dishes and serving some nasty cheapskate customers for hours for 50 bucks which was conveniently handed over to my hairdresser today. Geez, the things we do to look good! Sometimes 50 bucks is a small price to pay, if your haircut makes u feel like you're worth a million bucks! But yeah, I'm having a good time, getting lots of rest to make up for the physically, mentally and emotionally draining semester.

Oh yeah, before I go, just wanna help my sister with one of the stories she has for The Straits Times. So, if u guys, don't mind helping out, try http://www.straitstimes.com/ and take the snap poll on service! It's regarding some stuff about whether you think that you have been served well at restaurants or some sort of customer satisfaction survey.

Of course, I voted for NO- the service sucks. I mean, seriously, there are a couple of things which need to be done if they want to promote good customer service. Firstly, they need to hire less kids. Half the time, they don't even know what they are doing. I remember going to Fish and Co. with my sister last Christmas. It was horrible. The waiter didn't know how to take orders and another kid spilling mayo over my shoes wasn't too helpful either. Secondly, they have to pay higher wages. Seriously, with the close to $20 bucks an hr wages I get, I'm already trying to force a smile sometimes. LOL I can't imagine if I had to work for $6.50 an hr facing picky bosses and difficult customers. Hell, I'd just tell the customer giving me a hard time to piss off. Oh well, just my thoughts....

Oh yeah adopted a new pet pig on behalf of Jo! LOL. I love the name she gave it, everytime I see it I laugh. Feed it more k?

{PEOPLE I LOOK LIKE? - Saturday, June 23, 2007}

Don't you hate it when someone says, "HEY YOU LOOK LIKE SOMEONE I KNOW!". I know I do. Recently someone said that I look like an actor. LMAO, righhhht. Anyway, decided to do some searching but I was pretty dissapointed with the results because on two different photos i used, I got 2 sets of totally different celebrities. So I guess this site isn't as accurate as I think it is lol. Anyway, check this out!

OMG IM MISSING U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow I'm tired as hell. It's 2am and I just got home from work. Did 8 hrs straight so that means I'm 100 dollars richer. The thing that really bugs me is the thought of going clubbing with friends tomorrow and just let loose. Every time I go clubbing I can easily spend 100 bucks. Then I realize how damn hard it is to save up money.

I really had planned to go back to Singapore for a couple of months because I miss my family and friends. But right now, I'm left with not much of a choice. I'm trying to do about 50 hr weeks and hopefully save up a few grand by the end of July. I know I did horribly this semester and I'm bound to fail one or (God forbid) two units. So IF my parents DO let me stay one more sem to complete the shit I haven't, I'll make sure I do it with MY money. Fucking 25 yrs old already, I should be responsible for my mistakes. Fuck, I'm never gonna let such shit happen ever again.

So there you go. I've been getting so many messages on msn asking me how I'm doing and when I'm going back. My answer is right here. I don't need sympathy and I certainly don't wanna keep repeating my case to different people, it's tiring. Sorry :(

Anyway, I've got some lobang and I'll be moving from my pizza job to work at BURSWOOD (its the local casino...or should I say BURSTwood because the dealers always deal me blackjacks and perfect pairs and I go home a happy man ^_^). LOL XINYI I SEE UR EYES HAVE JUST BECOME BIG LIKE FISHBALLS. Ok, no eyes jokes because I always lose. Anyway, pay is good - I'll be looking at $18/hr on weekdays and $22 on weekends. Yummy.

Urrgh so tired, gonna shower and get some rest, its gonna be a long ass day tmr..

{Die Trying - Wednesday, June 20, 2007}

Heh I just finished watching a streaming video from a site I really like to visit. It's at http://www3.alluc.org/alluc/ . Basically it has heaps of movies and TV series which are streaming and that means you can watch without the hassle of downloading via bitcommet or whatever torrent program you use. So I just wanted to recommend it to those who don't know about it yet :P

Anyway back to the movie. I adored it. Maybe because of the blend of colours which made the atmosphere so dark and dreary. The shades of crimson and grey seemed to blend so well. The action was good and well, knowing that almost 70% of the show was computer generated it goes to show how far technology has come.

The theme was cool, I totally love the Spartan i-do-not-fear death attitude and I think it's a trait which I really lack. I mean not to their extreme sense of fighting for honor, glory and freedom but recently I've been giving up on a lot of things. I used to have a never-say-die attitude but now all I can think about is cutting my losses and giving up on things has grown at a disturbing rate. This show made me reflect and remind me that this defeatist mentality has to stop. It's like a plague. Sometimes you just have to give it your all even if you fail, you can look back with no regrets and pick up valuable lessons along the way. Just some thoughts, hmmmm....

I've also been watching heaps of America's Got Talent and Britain's Got Talent on youtube. It's really quite interesting stuff! I have to say though, Britain's got more talent :p I mean, David Hasselhoff as a judge - come on, that says it all. Lol.

I've got utmost respect for the winner Paul Pott. He sold handphones for a living before this competition and you can see how simple and humble he is. Anyway, I've uploaded his performance. I hate opera but this performance of Nessun Dorma (haha Ally I know what u were talking about now!) made my jaw drop....enjoy

{Point of No Return - Sunday, June 10, 2007}

As you can see, I've adopted a new pet!!! Welcome Speedy! That's right he can swim bloody fast ok? Well here Speedy is, transfered from my realm of WoW (which I left for good reasons) onto my blog!

Sigh...Exams commence tomorrow and I'm freaking nervous. Despite my efforts so far, I'm just not mentally prepared this time round. The brutal lineup of papers, 11th (Audit), 13th (Corp Law), 14th (Corp Accounting), and 18th (Theories and Issues), doesn't help either. Alright, back to books...

{Picture the Future - Friday, June 08, 2007}

I'm drowning in a sea of words. Sigh, there is soooo much to study. I hate studying =( but I'm trying really hard. I've got a goal and it's gonna keep me motivated though everyone would laugh at me if I told them what it was. LOL. But I'm me and I'm silly. Yet I can say that at least I've found direction and a focus - a goal to work toward. It's a big improvement from being a lost sheep weeks back.

It all ends in just two more weeks. I know I can do it! K, gonna get back to mugging....

{L.O.V.E - Tuesday, June 05, 2007}

Was surfing the web for some motivational quotes to keep me focused and saw this instead 2 more weeks and i really have to pull through this. It's gonna be an uphill struggle but I don't go down easy either. Have faith, have faith!

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
I Corinthians 13:4-8

{Somewhere I Belong - Sunday, June 03, 2007}

I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I’ve felt so long
(Erase all the pain till it’s gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong....

{When It's Easier Said Than Done - Friday, June 01, 2007}

I'm sure we all, at one time or another, have been approached by a friend seeking help with their problems - most of the time its a relationship one. I know I've helped tons of friends though theirs. I've attempted to patch ends together, consoled and on a few occasions asked people to 'just end it'. So, now it's my turn and as the saying goes, it's always easier said than done.

I guess I'll just update everyone on what's going on through my mind right now. I've got shitload of things happening in my life. My Dad might want me to scrap PR plans and go back to Singapore for good. That is a whole other story all together and while it sits in the corner of my mind, I'll just focus on now. Exams are around the corner, I'm trying really hard to study but sometimes my mind will wander off and start thinking of 'what ifs' or memories are triggered by the places we go. I've realized that just taking some time out and pray really works. It doesn't matter which God you pray to and if you dont have one, try one it can calm you down. So yea, I'm getting my train of thought back :)

I think I've changed. It's probably a little too quick to say though, but I think I've learned how to take things easy. I realize how silly I was last time to fuss over the most trivial of matters - probably my gaming attitude in particular. But you know what I've realized? After losing someone you love, losing a game means nothing. So relax and take it easy, there are more important things in life which we should cherish.

So this is where the moping ends and life begins. I jolly well know what to do and everyone tells me the same thing. So it's about time I've cleaned the shit which hit the fan and pick up from my fall...
