It (sometimes) pays to have a fierce face....

Just came back home and I am immediately blogging already! First time doing this but I'm afraid that if I do not write what I have to say now, the "hotness" to do so will cool as time passes. :)

Okok... Just went to have a meal with moi gf at a certain pizza hut branch in Singapore (location is to be kept a secret). It was a peaceful quiet evening (ok lah, considering that I have a gazillion things to do, it's not really peaceful but anyway...) and I ordered a gold crust couple meal or something like that which consists of a speical pizza with a gold crust (duh), 2 soups, 2 pepsi and a bowl of keropok which my gf insist it's tortilla until it came. *snigger*

Anyway, I was sitting there quietly, minding my own business as usual.. until I became increasingly impatient and angry. You see, I am a person who have little patience and I hate to wait for things to happen (ok... unless I am in an army camp where time is aplenty). I contemplated looking for the manager but being a kind-hearted guy who hate to break someone's rice bowl, I tried to rein in my temper. The next pizza, I keep telling myself, the next pizza is mine.

*Deep breath* But it STILL did not come after 40mins!! Too bad about the manager's rice bowl, I went over to look for her (yes, it's a she) and asked what is going on in the nicest manner possible (honest!!) and she say she will check it out. From the corner of my eye, I knew that they have FORGOTTEN about my order... Ok lah, I was quite pissed then but it surprised me when the manager brought out 10 chicken drumlets for me and gf! Woohoo!! I was just expecting an apology and a jiffy delivery of my pizza... Hmmm... Is it because I have a fierce face or because they have too much chicken drumlets?

Anyway, I was tucking quite happily into my chicken when she came back with 2 new glass of pepsi and changed our drinks!! (My drink was empty and my gf's was half-empty) Ok, this act was definitely out of my expectation cause I thot the chicken was ok. *Ahem* A good lesson in marketing. Back to the story, the pizza came and there's no chilli or cheese. I asked the server nicely (honest!!) about the whereabouts of these condiments and to my surprise, she RAN to get them. Wow... It's either I am still looking fierce or she needed the excercise...

Ok, after consideration for the chicken and drinks, I feel obliged to say a few good words about them to repay part of their kindness. PIZZA HUT ROCKS!!! Ok, end of advertisement. *Buurrrrrrp*

Misery "holiday"

Whoops.. Being a long time since I last blogged. Had been reminding myself to update the blog but had been kind of busy lately. :( Though this week was officially a "holiday" week, I had been going back to school almost everyday and doing my projects EVERYDAY!! Sheesh... Looks like the definition of a "holiday week" during secondary school and the definition during university has such a large difference... Hello!!! According to www.dictionary.com, a holiday week is meant for one to ENJOY!!!

Oh well... Perhaps I should enjoy the week, going out with friends, going for steamboat, going to shop etc etc. But I kind of hate the feeling of rushing to do work when everything piles up in the end. It's even more frustrating when you might have to REDO the work that you had done so far cause there's a cock-up. Sigh... What to do?

I have a friend who is pro-active in non-academic work. She participates in doing business plan competition, has lots of working experience in sales, banks, admin etc. Kind of envy what her resume will look like compared to my bare area under the category "past working experience". Shit man.... worries worries...

Forgive my random mumblings... Excuse me while I go and "enjoy" the rest of my holidays...

Yeah right...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Happy new year to everyone!!! It's the 23rd neew year of my life! Wonder how many more am I going to see through..... Anyway, hope everyone had fun collecting ang baos and eating new year goodies!! :)

I went back to Malaysia on wednesday and thursday of the new year to visit some relatives there. They are my father's side and they stay in a small town called Rengam in Johor. Haha... So i'm actually a kampong kid ok? One who is in awe of the towering structures in Singapore... :) Anyone took a train ride b4? (Not MRT or LRT k... plsss... i'm refering to those old type of trains) It's quite cool to take a train ride but the coolness wore off after a while as the scenery never changed much throughout the journey....

Hmmm.... One incident that struck me in my short stay in Malaysia was this encounter with my grandma. She's quite old (I dunno the age) and she's senile. I do not really know she's senile until then. First of all, I do not understand Hakka and this was translated by my auntie (my grandma's daughter). Secondly, some background information: my grandma used to stay with my uncle in Choa Chu Kang and she used to look after his kid called X. I think she see him grow up and worry and think of him most of the time. Back to the story, this occured: She grabbed my hand and said in hakka, "Is there anyone taking care of you?" I was like quite shocked cause I do not know what she meant then my auntie was saying that she must have mistaken me as X. Then I was thinking... Doesn't that mean X was the last thing on her conscious mind before she went senile? Make me kind of sad. My counsin (3 yrs younger than me) cried after I mentioned that thought of mine to her.

I came back to Singapore early on Thursday. Oh yah, my luck is terribly bad nowadays... Played a bit of mahjong and blackjack and I lost everything on wednesday and thursday. Sigh... damn tired now... Going to sleep.. A backpile of work beckoning at me... :(

Enjoy what's left for the weekend!!!!
