Appreciate me for who I am,
not what I can do.
Listen to what I thought,
not what I said.
Judge me by what I will do,
not what I have done.
Remember me as I tried to be,
not who I was.
Because I am not me.

lazy lazy lazy =)


been almost 1 month since i last blogged.. since feb has only 28 days so still not 30 days yet.. hahaa..



anyway, some of the major events i can remember..


met up with the Loners after sooooooooooooo damn long.. everyone's been busy..

met with Shawn first n chill at Coffee Bean @ Paragon, while waiting for Tracy.. originally wanted to eat at Shokudo (or something like that) @ Heeren, but Tracy realised that her voucher not applicable during weekends, so bo bian..

ended up we ate dinner at Fish & Co..

Simin came just as we finish dinner, so we went down to Ice3 at Serangoon Gardens for our supper..


Shawn and his super strict requirement of his sundae.. think he almost scared the waitress to tears when she came with a wrong configuration of his order..

hahaa not that serious, but he did refuse to accept the wrong order and asked them to redo..



the 2 ladies.. the bluish glow from the table is abit irritating to the camera..


booked a trip with Shawn at the Expo to Taiwan.. confirmed from 18th to 30th June.. YAY!!!


went for the Nanyang Girls High Adventure Camp.. kena attachee again, aka not paid.. and being attachee means we are treated as second class trainers.. fuck.. Derek n i were seriously considering that if they still treat us as attachees for the next camp we would just quit.. dont really like their management and some of the 'higher-up' trainers there.. personally i felt that they were quite stuck up..


went Tioman for my Open Water Diver Course with Justin, Peifen n Jieyan.. a fantastic experience, great 2 days in the sun..


left in the evening, but the vehicles had problems along the way.. apparently one of the minibus radiator cooling pipe came off, and it was already smoking when we pulled into a petrol station.. so while waiting for the replacement, we just chillax and eat..




we reached Timotel at Mersing later than scheduled, so ended up we had only 1 1/2 hour of sleep before gathering at 4.30am to catch a ferry before the tide recedes..

but still, we were quite high when we saw our Timotel room.. totally exceeded our expectation.. so we did what everyone else would do.. we jump all over the beds..


me somersaulting..



Jieyan's pose in here is super.. hahaa..



caught the boat out, but was concussed in the early parts of the trip.. missed the sunrise.. dammit..





damn nice scenery..


the dives were fantastic.. just like our instructor Alex said.. it is damn addictive.. the underwater world is totally magnificent, and very different.. suddenly your vertical axis of motion comes into play.. something which Peifen is quite hard at getting used to? hahaa she always ends up above us instead of being at the same level..


and the result of a good dive?


Jieyan's arm after the first dive.. can see the tan line already..



outside our little hut.. i find it quite cosy..


had a little incident there concerning one of our course mate.. he was injured by a on-board motor of a boat while doing a emergency surfacing.. luckily he only required only 8 stitches.. according to the news another japanese woman on the northern islands of Tioman met with the same accident and she was killed..


played Texas poker on the boat trip back.. i was the 2nd lowest loser, so i am one of the 4 supposed to treat the 4 winners to dinner.. hahaa didnt like gambling but it was fun..



nice sunset on the way back..



and everyone was frantically taking pictures of/with it..



IT Fair was next.. very tiring, but fun due to the other temp staffs.. i was actually quite unhappy with some of the higher ups, but mostly i think it was just me.. people do change under stress, so if they are still generally nice they should be okay okay people.. i think..


first time giving out flyers, first time doing promotion sales, first time earning salary in commissions.. can say that it is quite a interesting experience, perhaps i will try it again in june..


most of us joke n chit chat around, especially so when the crowd is trying their best to ignore us.. compare to Compaq opposite, our active promotion, aka shouting and stuffing flyers into passing people's face, is way way better than their passive promotion.. but life is not never fair, and they can still earn more than us by just standing there.. too bad i guess..


second night, Jieyan and i went to watch Dragonball Evolution at Marina Square..



personally i thought it was not that bad a let down.. comical, relatively loyal to the comic in regards to the character and personalities, but the fighting was quite disappointing.. sad.. and they coming up with sequel.. hahaa..


day 3 Jieyan and i went Shawn's house to stay over.. missed the cocktail party totally.. sorry dude.. but like Jieyan say.. it is reminisce of 3 years ago, when Shawn and i stayed over at Jieyan's house after his birthday party.. hahaa..

we stayed up n chatted till bout 4am.. then i bathe and go crash le.. Jieyan went home in the morning before going to Suntec, then i just went straight to work..





there was this group of fat ass guys.. 4 of them came during day 2, then Alisa was serving them.. i was beside them, and somehow i felt that they were just playing around and not interested in buying.. told her after they left, but i was quite surprised that they came back and bought 2..

i was even more surprised, when they came back during day 3 and asked for Alisa.. flatly refused to let anyone else serve them and blocking the already crowded booth.. end up they bought another 1 i think..

they came back on day 4.. i was not surprised already.. asked for Alisa (again?), but seems to be just chit chat.. Derek told me then that he overheard the fat chinese whispering to his friends that he wanted to get her number.. so Jieyan, Derek and i kept quite close to where they were talking.. just so happens a trolley came pass, and Alisa pushed them out of the way and followed them.. Sok Kee, another one of the female temp staff, immediately pulled her back, so there was this awkward moment when Alisa was being pulled in front of the trolley and everyone sort of paused abit..

in the time it took for the trolley to pass, Sok Kee told Alisa to be careful around those guys.. luckily they just left later without any incident..


other than that, nothing major happened.. i sold about 29 sets in total, considered little already.. lastly thank you to everyone who came down to our booth to visit me =D



for the last night, we went to 新旺香港茶餐厅 for supper for some, lunch for me..


Fiona and Alisa.. hijacked from Alisa's Blog..



Derek and Derek.. they even share the same wallet, which makes it creepier since they dont know each other before the IT Fair..



Alisa's full smile.. Jieyan said that he liked the way her cheeks dent in.. not exactly a dimple.. it is abit higher..








some random shot of Derek when he and i was working in NCC.. i was bored so i tied a hangman noose and someone tried to strangle him with it.. hahaa..
