looking through duan hui's blog and i realised that she really has a lot a lot a lot to say. don't know if it's interesting cos i just skimmed through it before coming to my own blog, but it definately looks different from others. i.e. it's not just a diary blog. sure, maybe she has too much time on her hands but i think she writes quite well actually. take a look and see. (link under 'destinations' drop down) btw, duan hui, i've put comments link here specially for you. so you can go ahead and write what you want.

next, have you ever noticed how sometimes the things you say come true sort of? like during work, me and colleague were talking about another colleague, wondering where she is. then we turn around and there she is, just walking towards us. yesterday, nisha and me were talking about boyfriends and colleagues becoming couples. i was telling nisha that i don't have a boyfriend. then she was saying, maybe i'll find someone working at the store. and that very day, i was working with 3 guys. woah! let me tell you about those guys. it breaks even my juice asia record of me and 2 guys.

first guy, shoe promoter larry. i was cashiering all day. very busy, being saturday afternoon. so the larry came over and helped me to do packing. on the way we start chit chatting and all that. :D he kinda reminds me of shawn from juice. wonder if they're related. they definately look alike, if i remember correct. next, kiat. actually i only worked with him for a really short while. evening, i totally cannot cashier anymore. i was making mistakes like almost giving the wrong change and all that. so tired. so i went to the back and jo gave me some price tag to do and kiat had to assist me. nice guy. temp staff like me. he's not that keen on cashiering so he always ends up doing stuff like the price tags. next guy, jovan. he the ladies' dept's G2. poor guy got transferred from men's cos our original G2 and G1 vanished and apparently there's a shortage of staff at ladies'. i was supposed to help him do packing cos he's really uncomfortable about handling lingerie. but in the end, cos jo called me to the back, he was on his own. and happy to say, he's overcome his discomfort. so we were chit chatting in between customers and all.

other people i work with. francisca my fellow G3. nice sweet girl. :D not much chance for us to really work together cos the perm staff don't like us hanging around together. they rather we be independent. whatever. soo hua my perm staff buddy. at first, she looked very strict type. but get to know her, she's ok really. always coming to rescue me from my screw ups at the cash till. nisha and latifah. 2 gila perm staffs. life's never boring with them around especially latifah. florence, candy and jo. the higher up staff. all looking fierce and strict. especially jo. (no offence meant) picture verena, taller, skinnier, really black face look. mummy saw her yesterday and even she thought jo was fierce. she thought jo was going to scold me when she made me go out back to do the price tags. florence and candy, not so fierce and strict looking but still have the look nevertheless.

ok. enough about work. still have yet to meet zaidah about the choir. supposed to meet her on tues. she'll come find me at parkway. yay! then can see the scores. i downloaded the songs. love the one, i think it's "caresses l'ocean" something like that. sweet. the other one's ok. not as nice but still.of course i'm not hopeful that i'll be ready to perform on that day but it'll be fun learning the song. fingers crossed that we can hold scores on that day.

andrew's cantoring today was ok. considering that he didn't really practice and only just learnt it on tuesday. busy lah. thought he'd be able to handle practicing by himself like the other cantors do. only i think he's the most difficult cantor to train. brother aside. it takes me a million times playing the tune over and over and over again before he gets it. :p and he's way too tall for the mic. or rather, the mic's too short for him. it's obvious. it has never had to handle such a tall fella before. ever. geez.

and fr khoo gave another half hour homily. and i have no idea what he was yakking about, my poor sleep deprived brain being unable to process. i only remember something about casinos in heaven...holy spirit thingy... of course it's my own fault that i'm sleep deprived cos after a full day at work (literal 12 hr shift), i still stayed up to catch the midnight to 1am repeat of the corey clark primetime interview. and then insomnia. just as i was about to fall asleep, zaidah msged me. and woke me up cos that ringing tone of mine is darn loud. sigh.

right. brain blocked. more next time.
