See what Care Bear you are.

Bedtime Bear
You are usually asleep on the job but that's okay because your job is to make sure everyone gets enough sleep! You're shy and sweet...when you are actually awake! Getting sleepy already?



oh my goodness...i took 2 care bear quizzes and both said i'm bedtime bear....haha

going to be an invigilator for the ACCA exam next week...went for the briefing yesterday and saw a few familiar faces there...so actually there are so many pple aware of this lobang...it's quite good money, something like getting paid for doing nothing...haha...saw xinzhi there too and he actually forgot who i was...so embarrassing...yucks...

went shopping after the briefing and cos of all the standing on hari raya, i felt that my legs were about to break again after all the walking...bought a top at far east and it was the last piece left...another girl also enquired about the top, luckily i bought it first...haha...yeah, i've won (meiyi is getting mad again)....

highlight of the day was to eat dinner at din tai feng at paragon...the restaurant is famous for its 'xiao long bao' and there's always a long queue of customers waiting outside....the ' xiao long bao' was really yummy, lived up to its name...the filling was very fresh also...i want to eat there again soon...

Wat's your smurf name?

mine is very uninteresting smurf...is this a real life reflection or wat....haha...

working at sentosa....the malay kampong (think xiuzi will understand this)....

it has been a year since i last worked at sentosa...but everything seemed like yesterday...the staff are still the same, the place still looked the same...

before i continue, let me list down some unforgettable incidents working there last year...

1. shorting $10 on my first day...sucks manz...
2. getting cheated by rebecca on hari raya...luckily she's fired...haha...
3. uncle koh driving me to tiong bahru market and tiong bahru plaza for lunch...the food there was much much better than those at WTC or on the island...
4. getting more than 20 mosquito bites on my hands and feet while working at fort siloso...always remembered to bring my repellant ever since...
5. hearing ghost encounters of staff...won't scare u all here....
6. working like a dog on new yr's eve...first time counting thousand over dollars...and the crowd was scary....
7. scolding simon back when he kept bothering me about the spoilt calculator...
8. rosmini and her maggi mee hair...
9. ranking who were the good looking guys working on the island....haha...see how bored we were...
10. seeing ben yeo of channel u up close when i was tearing his ticket...he's pretty short...
11. gossiping among the chineses about the non-chineses...so racist...but we gossip about the chineses too...hehe...

ok, let me continue with wat happened today...

i had to wake up super early today cos my duty started at 730 am...can't believe that there were pple coming at 8 something in the morning, they kiasu or wat...as i din work there for a year, i was wondering whether the staff still remember me...and they actually did...so touched...haha...esp uncle cheng hai who remembered my name when i wasn't even wearing my name tag (on second thots, could he have looked at the roster beforehand)...and the not-so-bad-looking fort siloso malay guy who said, 'din see u for a long time'....haha...the staff still looked the same, even the hairstyle remained the same (juz like me...hehe...)...uncle cheeky chan was still as cheeky and the weird attraction uncle was still working here...quite surprised that so many things remained so exactly the same...the minor differences were auntie theresa started to wear pants instead of skirts and auntie goh boi no longer wear siren red lipstick (or maybe it's cos she forgot to re-apply after lunch..haha)...uncle koh asked me which yr am i in now, juz when i thot he's referring to which yr in the uni, he continued to say, 'sec 3, sec 4, O levels or A levels?'...hmm, i dun think i looked so young rite...

as it was hari raya puasa, there were many many pple coming to the island...there were many many bangladesh workers who looked very identical, until a point where i wondered how come they kept coming in and out of the island...there were the usual beach boys and girls too, but it's raining today, wat are they doing here, they shd be rotting at home instead of crowding the island...that would make my job much easier...haha....

i had to stand from 0730 to 1530...and my legs wanna break at the end of the shift...i start to admire those pple who can stand stationary with their hands on the subaru car, how did they do it manz...

gotta be ticketing staff on sat, i forgot everything i have learnt regarding ticketing oredi...dunno wat to do...haha...hope some kind staff will help me along the way...

My Egyptian Horoscope.....

Ptah - God of Truth
(April 10 to May 2)

Ptah' s people are very sincere and have to be careful to avoid being hurt in romance. You'll find your Mr/Ms Right practically on your doorstep because you've known him/her for a long time. Because he's / she's a down-to-earth type who appreciates sincerity, he'll / she'll be attracted to you sooner or later, so don't be pushy when you recognise him /her.

i had my stitches removed today...the dentist said she did it 1-2 days earlier cos she won't be ard...makes me wonder if the wound will....hmmm...split open....sounds kinda gross ah....

she also said i got a small mouth...haha...same as wat my orthodontist said last time...so now u know why i eat so slowly...so quit complaining...hehe...i have extracted 8 teeth so far, 4 wisdom teeth and another 4 when i got my braces done....seems quite a lot....my teeth are crooked again, dunno need braces again or not...

according to her, the swelling will go off in a few more days...wonder wat's her definition of 'a few more days'....certainly hope it's not too long...

I juz had my surgery...it wasn't that bad...

i reached the national dental centre around 8 but waited till about 12 for the surgery...in between this time period, i read magazines, took a short nap and imagining how the surgery will be like....before the surgery, a dentist re-explained the whole procedure to me and told me about the risk involved....but he said the surgery is even safer than travelling in a car...wat a comparison...he even mentioned that the adjacent teeth will be slightly mobile...so scary...

perhaps i watched too much drama, i started thinking will the surgeon do a lousy job cos they want to go off for lunch soon...haha...

when i was injected with anaesthetic, the surroundings started to blur, juz like those drama effects....i tried to open my eye but i juz can't...that's the last thing i remembered before the surgery....

the next thing i knew, i woke up and the nurse told me the surgery is over....i looked at the clock and it's oredi 1 pm...i was still wondering was it a dream, it's over so soon? as i was still drowsy, i juz closed my eyes and rested...the nurse told me something scary though, she said when her colleague tried to wake me up, i was struggling and she had to press me down...sounds like a mad woman in the asylum...haha...and she asked me if i remembered such a thing...but i couldn't recall...

overall, the surgery was fine, not as bad as wat i have imagined...juz that i'm having a sore throat and a slight swollen face....but i guess it will heal soon....

Liberated at 11/17/2003 09:38:00 PM

In a few hours, i'll be going for my wisdom teeth extraction....

i'm more worried about the after-effects of the surgery, rather than the surgery itself...how swollen will my face be, how long will it be swollen, how long do i need to live on a soft diet, how fast will the wound heal etc etc etc.....

i love to eat...and now i have to kickstart my hols with porridge and oatmeal...wat a torture...haha....

yeah...the exam is finally over.....

i din manage to fiinish the paper...din have time to copy finish the lecture notes....haha....hope the marker dun penalise me for copying withiut paraphrasing...who in the right mind will still be bothered to paraphrase under exam conditions....besides, i dun really understand wat the handouts are trying to say, so how to paraphrase...haha...juz pray that the markers are lenient...i'm not greedy, juz give me a C....

i shall throw everything that got to do with the exam out of my head now....ok, maybe by tomolo cos i'm such a pessimist, will probably spend the rest of today thinking about my unfinished script....

a new round of worry starts when the date of result release approaches...sighz....

Your past life diagnosis:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.
You were born somewhere in the territory of modern USA North-East around the year 1400.
Your profession was that of a handicraftsman or mechanic.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
Seeker of truth and wisdom. You could have seen your future lives. Others perceived you as an idealist illuminating path to future.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
Your lesson is the development and expansion of your mental consciousness. Find a good teacher and spend a good part of your time and energy on learning from his wisdom.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you remember now?

nah...i dun remember....

two papers down...two more to go...

sometimes i really wonder how much i can learn in a semester that last only about 3 months. i am supposed to master stuff that i am completely alien to in such a short time frame. maybe i'm slow but i really can't do it. if u ask me something on modules taught in yr 1 and 2, i will probably give you a blank look. cos i really dun remember much. if that's the case, what's the use of uni education....i really ponder....

at the moment, i can't even pick up the momentum to study...sighz....

naz called me today and asked me to work on hari raya puasa....she actually remembered me...haha...must be out of desparation...maybe she's not entitled to a day off on hari raya unless she finds enough replacement....haha...gonna relive the sentosa days again...
