Filipino Day...

Today is a SUNDAY...and obviously ALL the filipinos appear in FULL FORCE at Lucky Plaza...I dont have a think against them and I actually met some really nice Filipino friends BUT the situation today was terrible....everywhere was packed to the brim...I wanted to go toilet also must check out every single toilet at every level....everywhere was freaking full and the quene was horrandous....Anyway other than the super duper crowded place, today was still quite alright since there wasnt enough 1GB memory stick available so that particular shop wasnt able to 'redeem' too much stuff so most of the time me n Clara entertained each other and talk our lungs out....think today's really a very entertaining day especially with Royston's "Mario' act and Melvyn and Ted's subway jokes...the guys wanted to faint when they saw the amount I ate for lunch and I still bought the cheese sausage from Far East when they were buying bubble tea...oh Royston and Ted were damn nice too....bought Mac 50c ice cream for everyone just when I was craving for it after going to Paragon to 'visit' Wen Sheng.....and we actually saw Filipino fighting and screaming upstairs and all the securities came....super duper like in the dramsa....went for dinner cum supper with the guys also since today ended real early much to everyone's pleasure.....had a good time laughing too because the guys are super crappy jokers....

Anyway on a side note....Im starting to be suspicious....and a gut feeling tells me the same thing too...yet to me its weird and so remotely impossible...how can someone who just start knowing you act like this especially when its a known fact that I have a BF, something which I practically announced since day one...in the first place dont even need to mention to him and he knew it long ago...and he actually like hint me??? or am I just being too sensitive?

Freakout day at Luxasia

Was actually still quite excited about the interview this morning yet everything just went wrong during the short trip from Pasir Ris to Eunos....the stupid sky suddenly decide to rain heavily just when i was reaching Eunos mrt station. Benig the usual me I obviously DONT bring umbrella out....Did contemplate taking a cab in to save the trouble but it was terribly hard to get a cab during peak hour plus it so happen that the bus I THOUGHT I was suppose to take came. Apparently boarding the bus was a terrible mistake because I have no idea y, my farecard actually cant work and it's blacklisted for dunno what stupid reason!!! It was SO embarressing can! Everyone was staring and it dosent help that I look so totally out of place because most of the people on that bus were dressed in airforce uniform....Anyway thankfully I happened to have enough coins and so I just paid up n hide to one corner of e bus and pretend to stare at the floor...So thinking I will reach the interview place real early I happily start counting the bus stops because I was suppose to get off the bus at the 8th stop, walk across the road and get to the building....simple as ABC (or so I thought). The worst thing ever actually happened to me next.....I cant believe i actually end up so 'lang bei'! When I got to the 'right' bus stop, I was like super skeptical...the surroundings were like constructions sites full of bangalas and cement mixers and pilers ( you get the picture!).....and I look totally like a sore thumb standing at the stupid bus stop shocked and dunno what the shit to do....plus it was still raining! All those stupid bangals all staring like hell like lions see zebras or something like that.....disgusting.....so obviously I have NO choice but to try to walk out of that stupid place and try to catch a cab in the rain....really felt like crying because I never so lost before in such a place where all you see is construction sites....and I was panicking because I thought I'll be late for the interview too...tried calling the luxasia office to ask for directions but the lady also couldnt help or direct me at all! What the shit!

At this moment this slivery grey car just pulled up and a guy in airforce uniform asked if I need a lift to go uphill (he thought I wanted to get to the airbase). Told him I was looking for Luxasia building and not too sure where it was. And he stun me by offering me a ride and said even though he dunno where the building was he could make a loop and drop me off at a more 'civilised' place so I can get a cab. Really didnt dare or plan on hitching a ride but at that point of time it's either I get into the car or continue to be stuck in that terrible place and being visually raped by those bangalas in the rain in my white top. Obviously I pick that guy since I didnt think he would try to do anything funny in broad daylight in his uniform and it helps that he's either a captain or a major...cant really remember plus he not that young (late 30ss or early 40ss??) so instints tells me that he should be a regular and there is a high chance that no regular at this kinda age will try to do anything stupid to jeopadize his job. Anyway, although I forgot to take note of your number plate and you wont read this, a special note to John....thanks for the help you gave to a total stranger even though you were really near your workplace, for dropping me off at Luxasia building(saw that stupid building once we got out of the loop) , for being my angel at the point when I was at my worst-off moment and for the well wishes for my interview(the only good luck wish I got). Even though most probably we wont meet again and I wont get the job at Luxasia, I will always remember that I once received help from you before.

And one thing I realised at the point of time when I was trapped there...as in realised why I felt so panicky and lost, it wasnt only because I was running late for the interview with a company that I was interested in, it was because at that point of time I realised there wasnt anyone for me to turn to...same as when I finished the terrible interview and am dying to tell someone what happened to me....I literatlly had no one who was really free to listen to me...its like all my close friends and besties where either working or overseas....and it dosent feel good to know that I cant really tell him about it too....I did tell him the gist of it but thats not the same as getting the whole chunk off your chest to make yourself feel better...he's either too tired or just cant be bothered to really listen...I dont know and wonder why....and what does that imply...its really that godamn hard to listen meh? And Im the kind who super need to rant so that I can get over it....maybe I'm not excatly making sense here but its all mixed up thoughts and feelings pented up too long...

First day @ Sony roadshow

Today marks the first day i work since after exam. First time doing roadshows and first time involved in electronic products which I have totally no idea what the hell are all those technical stuff. Anyway the people are rather nice, a couple of them are from SIM-RMIT too....34th and 35th intake...Feel super duper old when they asked me which sem I'm in. Oh and even though Im only doing redemption with this other girlo and not selling anything, the guys are nice enough to include us into their pooled commission!! so yeah~~ I'll get a little bit of commission too without selling and without any product knowledge! And after today the impression I have of Lucky Plaza go even more downhill...felt totally disgusted with those cheapobasket tenants who carry sony products too. We were giving away quite a fair bit of freebies for this roadshow with any sony camera purchase and these freebies are better then those offered at other big electronic shops. You know what those cheapos did?? They bloodily pretend to have sales and issue invoices themselves to look as if they sell the camera and collecting the freebies on behalf of their customers. Thus they could happily get LOADS of freebies FREE and can resell them to CON their customers! Gosh I cant believe there are actually people stupid enough to go buy from them (dont count tourists). And there is this disgusting shop call Lu*ky Ce*tre (dont want invite trouble if i display the full name here but u can fill in the black yourself) actually got the CHEEK to dump 80 over copies of fake invoices and made me and the other girl issue freebies to them!!! What the hell!!! *grghhzz*
Oh I was quite excited today also because Luxasia suddenly call me down for an interview when I thought I had no chance already since its been nearly a month since i sent that resume to them. Now I cant really remember what the full job scope is like...only remembered that I prefered the Marketing Co-ordinator job better than this Marketing Exect post. Still, its still worth a try since I really wanted to do stuff related to consumer marketing especially in cosmetics and skincare. Now the freaking problem is I still need to work for sony on friday and the application form Luxasia gave me need 2 references!!! Who the hell am I going to get as my references? And hopefully I'll be able to pull it off on friday....turn up for work a few hours late since clara agreed to help me cover up (hope she dont put me aeroplane). I know this is like the worst thing I ever did when doing a job but hey the interview is important to me and how would I know they will call me today of all days!??? Why cant they call me on Monday then I go interview on Tuesday rite??

it felt good to blog again after so long but shall continue with my whole chunk of thoughts another time cas my eye is super giving me problem :(
