Whodat?

Yesterday was poker night at Loong's place courtesy of Nick's invitation. JW, Chee Hwa were all there.

And because I had the day off, I decided to have my hair cut before heading off to Jia Wei's place for dinner.

Long story short, it was my fault. The lady cut off 2 inches and that would have been the perfect length but I told her I wanted shorter. Hence, the pic below.


That's my 3 dollars sunnies. Cute or not!!! ftw.

For some reason, I think I resemble Chibi Maruko Chan now.


Last night Loong said something which comes out sounding extremely wrong and I was blushing to the maximum and Nena said I looked like a strawberry FML.

To be honest, the only thing that is slightly bothering me right now is the fringe. That's what make me look like Maruko Chan. I'll just have to grow it out.

All in all, I'm quite happy with how it turns out. I thought it would be a bad thing but I am actually starting to like this haircut( with a nicer fringe tho).

Now I just need to buy a few girly hairbands which I can wear to class so I do not look like a village girl.

Btw, Andres is such a junkie. While playing poker, he was rolling his joint using the $1 Brunei dollar note Loong gave him. Put the weed on sultan's face summore. Confirm cannot laaa this one.

Cut or not to cut?

My hair....actuallyy my hair would have been short-er today if it wasn't for ICMS's incompetency. I was planning on finishing everything by 1pm so I can get back to the city for a hair cut. BUT!

It was already 5pm by the time I reached the city. The ferry ride took forever. It was the scariest shit ever to be on that ferry. Due to extremely bad weather, the sea was very rough and choppy.

The ferry rocked from left to right and several times, it was nearly tipped over. But it didn't. How? I have a slight idea but in order not to embarrass myself further, I shall say I have no idea at all.

I'll leave this to the engineers. Back to the ferry. To be honest, it was actually kinda fun besides the fact that I thought I was gonna die. It's like going on a rollercoaster but on water and the chances of dying is actually pretty high.

Where was I? Oh..my hair. Yeah bah...yesterday I tried to curl my hair with the big tong but FAIL. Coz my hair is too short. I might try again today using the smaller tong.

Ok la...I am going to cut my hair for sure before I go back to school! Am just procrastinating doing so. Just like how I am doing every thing.

*******

Cold joke of the day by Paul Collins: "I wish Kar's last name is Park instead of Lee, then I can call him Kar Park"

I call him Piglet.

*******

So today...I called Chantal again. She helped me fixed my timetable for the missing subjects.

I actually understand why some students never reach these staffs.

First of all, when you call ICMS's number, a lady from the Constellation will pick up.

Who will then transfer you to someone who actually works in ICMS.

Who will then transfer you to another lady (no idea what's her real job) but at the moment, her job is to ask if you are calling regarding your timetable. If the answer is yes, then she will STRONGLY discourage you from continuing by saying 'Oh..Chantal is very busy at the moment seeing a lot of students. You know you can come on Friday to change it right'.

If you tell her some awfully awesome and believable lie like 'I have a very tight work commitment on Friday hence I am not able to come in on that day', her next and final tactic is to raise doubts in you by saying 'I can transfer you to her but it is very likely she will not pick up the phone at all and it would be much better to email her instead'.

At this point, you either say 'Oh, if that's the case, then I'll email her. Thank you'

OR

'It's alright. Just put me through. Thank you' (while putting on a >.> face)

If you choose the second reply, good on ya *thumbs up*!

Because Chantal answered the phone on the first ring.

Fuck that whoever was on the phone.

Alright. Maybe I was just lucky. Whatever.

My timetable is like fixed. Although Thurs is shit but event classes are shit because they are so small.

Now that all the school issues are done. I will need to buy some stationery and like really really prepare for a new term *A-potensi kali ahhhhhhh*.

Unlike previous terms where I either have no notebooks, no test pads, no ruler, no pencil, no.......etc *hangs head in shame*.

No wonder my GPA dropped to 2.8.

Boohooo...

*******

I was refilling the cereal jars just now at work. And I popped a piece of corn flakes into my mouth.

It tastes good actually. But it reminds me of something stupid.

You know like how when you were young, you go to frens' bday parties and at the end, you get goodie bags?

Usually it would consist of a small pack of cracker/cereal/junk food, lollies, chocolate sticks and a packet of Yeo's drink.

As a child, I always feel like a damn loser when I find Kelloggs corn flakes in my bag. Coz the packaging damn boring right. Unlike Coco Pops or Frosties, got cartoons summore. There's like a chicken on the corn flakes box. With no face. W-T-F.

Same goes for drinks. When I get air tebu or soya bean, I damn angry one. Coz the air tebu green resembles shit green and soya bean is like for old smelly people with no teeth. I hate air tebu!! I still hate it actually.

Ironically, I love soya bean now. Maybe I'm one of those old smelly people with no teeth HAHHAHAHAHAH!

If you get like lychee or urm..what other flavours are there? Then you are cool wtf.

Fuck air tebu.

********

I have 2 more shifts before going back to college. I will miss you working life....and $$$$$$.

Determination prevails!

Today I had the day off and as I have said earlier, I have to go to ICMS to pay my fees.

I went to the bank withdrew the money and it is fucking nerve wrecking to walk around with a huge sum of money in your bag ok.

Once my fees were settled, I went to Student Services to see if I can change my timetable. However, a lady there told me it will takes 'hours' just to see anyone and just to email Chantal the person in charge of the schedules. And said 'the changes can be made through email'. My arse.

I emailed Chantal at around 12pm and waited until 1pm for her reply. It did not come. So off I went to SS again just to find out some students have put down their name in a list to see Chantal personally today. I quickly put my name down. I was number 14.

Luckily I did not give up quickly and just let it be. I waited in front of the SS until they call my name.

When I wrote my name down, 4 people had already seen her. Which means there were 9 people in front of me.

I only got called at 4pm.

3 fucking hours for 9 people ok. Luckily Paul Collins was there to entertain us for the first hour and the second hour I went to the nearby cafe at Manly Hospital to have my brunch. Didn't think it would take that long hence no breakkie for me.

I picked the lousiest time ever to go to the cafe coz it was pissing outside like hell. The wind was so strong my umbrella got blown the other way. And I was using the damn big and sturdy umbrella that Loong gave me. If I was using my little red umbrella, long gone already lor.

I got pissed on as well. Dammit. Anyway, it was worth it coz I got the best timetable ever. I think it is even better than last term.

Mon: 10am-12pm (Managerial Accounting), 12pm-2pm (Exhibition Services), 2pm-4pm (Business Law)
Tues: 10am-12pm (Managerial Accounting)
Wed: 10am-12pm (Business Law), 12pm-2pm (Business Econs)
Thurs: OFF
Fri: 10am-12pm (Exhibition Services), 12pm-2pm (Business Econs)

Actually I just found out I am missing one sub. ENG236 - Contemporary Issues in Event Management. WTF is this! HAHHAA! Aiyah..never mind la. I'll just call Chantal tomorrow and let her know.

OMG! So tired now....I shall take a hot shower and go to bed. It's 5am tomorrow!

Edit: I just checked my timetable again. Apparently I am enrolled in ENG236.

Bad: Lecture is on Thurs 8am which means no off day for me.
Worse: Tutorial is also on Thurs 12pm. Hence a 2 hour gap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Worst: Those are the only available classes because event classes are so small that we have only ONE lecture option and ONE tutorial option. FOL.

Bloody mahai!

Oh My Daddy!

Wah..today's posts are all on family.

So I still do not have the money in my account. My mum called me again to ask about it. Then my Dad called home from offshore.

Just to say he accidentally TT'ed the money to ICMS's account instead of my personal account. Ai-yahhhhhhhhhhh. My the sky ah.

Usually he would TT the whole sum of 11k to ICMS every term. But this term, I still some money in my personal account from IT and so this time, I told him to send just half the amount to me.

And finally, I can transfer the entire sum to ICMS.

Complicated I know. But trust me, having a huge sum of money with me is VERY dangerous. I can easily spend it on useless expensive shit like LV (whattttttttttttttttttttt?)

Hence I told my dad to do the above. Resulting in a huge messy situation like this.

But it also explains why I have 3 new subjects only.

Seriously, why my whole family is klutz-s like that? ftw

Luckily ICMS is very lui-bin. I called them and explained the situation. They say 'Oh, it's fine. Don't worry about it! Just come in tomorrow to pay the remaining balance'

And so I have to go to Manly tomorrow to present them with *MY* money :((

I hate this!

*********

What makes me happy: Finding a $50 note in my box.

:DD

-

Oh First Brother,

Do not waste your time over a girl who is not worth it. What's gone is gone. You should come here to Sydney ASAP. I understand it's hard for you to forget her because you see each other too often. There are plenty more fishies here. One day, you'll forget about that fish and get a new one.

WTF.

My new timetable!

I got enrolled in 4 new subjects only. And I have not paid my tuition fees yet.

Not I don't want to pay ok. I am waiting for the money to actually get deposited in my account. My dad TT'ed it over last Tues and it is not in there yet.

So I was worried la coz last time it took like 1 day. So I asked him 'Dad, are you sure you did not send the money to the wrong account number or anything?'. He was like 'I copied everything from the last TT form so it shouldn't be' and told me to wait a bit more. I will wait until tomorrow and see what happens.

Anyway, as I have not paid my fees yet, I am surprised that I get to choose my timetable wtf.

However, as I have said I was given 3 out of the 5 correct subjects. Managerial accounting, Business Law and Econs. The other 2 are Sponsorship!! (WTF) and Contemporary Leadership which is kinda correct but doesn't count as a unit.

At the moment, Mon is 12pm-4pm, Tues is 8am-12pm and Fri is 10am-12pm.

Dammit! My life right now damn fan ah!

Last Sunday, I told my dad I will be working 3 shifts only this week. That's what I thought. However, Lucy texted me again. I said yes to another few shifts. I worked today 8am-11am and then am going to continue later at 4pm-12am because Alain kinda begged me to work saying that if I do the night shift as well, he can send me home at 11am. Hence, right now me being at home.

Tues: 6pm
Wed: OFF
Thurs: 5am-11am, 6pm-12am
Fri: OFF
Sat: 5.30am-12pm
Sun: OFF

Actually, it's just an extra day. Ok la...not too bad.

I worked yesterday in banquets. It was the most FML day ever. We did breakfast, lunch and set-up. 12.5 hours on a Sunday. Woots! $_$

So Tania is sick now. They say I make her sick wtf.

On Sat, she was even bitchier than the Red Queen wtf. She comes in and was like

"What is that?"

"Why did you do that?"

"Are you supposed to do so?"

"Next time, wake up"

All that questions in a row without giving you a chance to answer. That wasn't me btw.

And because yesterday, I did not go to the office first when I started my shift. When she saw me, she was like "What time did you start your shift? Do you know you're supposed to come to the office first? Next time, come here first, say hello (WTF?) and find out where you are working."

WTF WAS THAT! Usually when we go to the office, she would shoo us out to the ballroom. Fuck her la. She's getting fat and I hope she eats more junk food and get so fat that when she jump for joy, she get stuck WTF.

Free loader.

So yesterday, we did lunch and then we had this meeting/conference going on in Level 6 at the Heritage Ballroom.

No idea what the conference was on but LOTSA goodies were brought in. Things like chips, muesli bars, tiny toys, lollies, red bull, juices, choco bars and plenty more you name it.

At the end of the meeting, more than half of those were left behind. And the ones working upstairs aka Fiona, Jasmine and Ty went crazy with it. Jasmine got like 10 cans of Red Bull and a huge box of goodies.

And she gave me some. I took some muesli bars, a huge box of TicTacs, a pack of spicy cashew nuts, a few sticks of strawberry chewy sticks and a big bag of potato chips.

Guess someone won't be losing the weight huh.

******

I am very tired and nearly fell asleep because Facebook is not very happening at the moment WTF.

So I went to mysoju.com to look for series that I can watch to kill time. I decided to watch the last episode of You're Beautiful and I totally get the whole storyline with that episode alone.

Which reminds me of one random moment with Reza, the Korean wannabe. We were at BOH when he suddenly pushed me away and then pulled me back. Then he said

"You should say 'OPPAAAA' when I pull you back so it looks like in the Korean drama series"

I straightaway =_=''

Wahhhh.....so damn cold can!!!

And I applied for a new proxy card which cost me $25 FML.

********

You know right? I received my pay on Wed. And on my payslip, I see that I no longer have the Sat rates oh! I did 12 hours on Sat and I got paid like the weekday rate oh. Should I go complain or let it be because it's like 50 bucks only? After tax already, also like 40 bucks la.

*******

I feel so tired now. Vittoria was right. Actually we all know that. If we know we have to work continuously for a long time, our body automatically pushes itself to achieve that goal.

However if we stop for a while after that, that's when the body starts to show signs of fatigue and slows down.

I can barely wake up this morning. T___T

********

Ok la...just a tiny bit update coz I want to go back to watching random snippets of the Korean series-s WTF.

Bored

I have the day off today and it's boring the shit out of me.

I went to Coles, got my veges, cooked them and ate my lunch and spent the rest of the afternoon surfing the net. Refreshing my FB page every 5 mins is not healthy.

Either I do stuff way too quickly or I have no life.

I mean..I could have gone out for a movie or went shopping. But I just do not feel like doing anything but hibernate at home because it's cold and rainy outside.

At least it's cold. Not hot and baking me.

So I just kept on eating and sitting on my ass all day.

This is why I get fat.

On another hand, I would rather if I have to work. Then I would be working, constantly on the move and earning money.

This is how I lost the weight.

What about friends? Don't you have friends?

I do.....but being around people is tiring. I mean I could have asked Jia Wei they all out or something but it's the weekday. I'm sure they have classes and shit. My time always clashes with them.

Like last Sat, I received a msg from Jia Wei asking if I'm free. The thing is when I saw that msg, it was already 2am. They be at home already la....

Is this like a huge problem? Alienating myself from people? Or do people actually do this as well?

Ohh speaking of which, do you think eating spaghetti with pasta sauce and melted cheese is fattening? I'm in such a denial. It is not fattening, it is obese-sing! Sorry, created another word of my own.

Coz I just consumed a huge bowl of it. Although I couldn't finish it. The freaking bowl of pasta owned me. Now I'm queasy and all.

Now...I'm going to brush my teeth and lay in bed listening to my Ipod until I fall asleep (great, the best way - sleep immediately after eating).

Banquets starts at 9.30am tomorrow.

Still sick.

So I am spitting out dark-coloured snot every morning which is EW.

Am not working tomorrow which is heaven. But am working from Thurs until Sun.

Since I am free tomorrow, I might actually cook some real food instead of baking chicken with cheese and slap it on top of rice. Vegetables.......

But it is also because of a video I saw in YouTube. A doctor was saying in order to have healthy hair, we must take food such as leafy greens, brown rice and dairy products.

I do eat yoghurt sometimes. And I have melted cheese on top of my baked chicken wtf.

And I am planning to trim my hair again. And do another colouring session. But I also want to see how curled medium length hair looks like. On me.

Oh my.

I also got the results for my Sponsorship unit. It's a Credit. 2 marks shy of Distinction.

T_____________________T

How good would that be if I have another D then it would offset how fugly the 2 Ps are.

Anyway, it's ok la. At least it's not another P right.

****

Just got off from work in Mosaic and am kinda hungry. I actually thought about going for the sinfully good pancakes at The Rocks with them. But decided against it in the end. Remember the pants!!

Monday, May 17, 2010

Results are out!

I got 1 Distinction for my Marketing yeahhh. Useless one. Give questions already before exams.

A Credit for my ENG224. Which means my English level is still acceptable wtf.

2 Passes for HR and Event Project. I already knew my Event Project is a P coz Vicki told me she gave everyone a P for it wtf. And HR is like such a bummer la..I studied so hard for it and was expecting at least a Credit but I got a P.

Dammit!!!

The biggest scare of all time - getting a F for one of my units.

When I saw the F, I had to zoom my head nearer to the screen just to make sure I wasn't hallucinating as I just woke up.

It's a F. FAIL.

OMG!

Then in my head, all these scenes of my Lim Peh yelling at me and chiding me for wasting his money and me crying kept on replaying. Boohoohoo...

Holy holy holy shit!

I quickly texted Nicole my Sponsorship lecturer about my grade and luckily her reply was

"Oh..some people did not upload their final assignments which is why everyone got a F for it. It will be fixed ASAP :)
Don't worry, you are not coming back :)"

I was so scared I nearly cried already ok!!

What kind of shit is this!! Aihhh....

2Ps. I feel like my grades are getting worse. Gotta study harder next term.

Edit: Btw, I received my second scarf (the one which cost US$1.19). I have to say the quality is not as good as the first one. It's similar but the white one was better. Oh well.

WASSUP!

I am so back-logged I dunno how to start. WTF. So happening meh? >.>

No larrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

It was work ALL THE WAY.

I think Tania hates my guts. Coz I had six shifts and on Monday, it was just set-up. Like the whole crew was there to just do set-up for the functions on Tues. I am rarely in the set-up crew. It's like Tania wants to use up all of me sekali gus wtf.

Monday: Set up - 10.5hours
Tuesday: Dinner + Set-up - 9hrs
Wednesday: Dinner + Set-up - 9.25 hours
Thurs: Dinner + Set-up + MEP - 12hrs
Fri: Lunch + Dinner + MEP - 11.5hours
Sat: Set-up + Dinner - 12hours
Sun: Mosaic: 4.75hours

Sun???

Yeah lor.....on Sat afternoon Andrea and Lucy this new assistant manager personally came down to B2 and begged the banquets crew to work. Only the three stupid girls aka Christy, Sun Ju and I said yes.

Andrea was like 'Lesley, you can come at 10am and leave at like 3pm' so I was like 'Yeah ok'.

It has been a interesting week. It being my busiest to date and also my sickest week wtf. I have a flu, cough and sore throat at the same time. Dunno why but I have never been sick this long ok. It started on Tuesday all the way to today.

Grace kept on saying 'Lesley, please don't die on me!! I need you for the next few days!!'.

Mikey is so weak la. Body big only, immune system like shit. I talked to him for like 30 seconds on Wed night and the very next day, he woke up with a cold too. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHA!!!

Grace was sick, Mary was sick and quite a few others.

So we had all the usual lunches/dinners and stuff. The Liberal Party came in and Tony Abbott was like yeah we will cut this cut that. Vote for me wtf.

That Liberal party lunch was on a Friday and we have a buffet dinner for the Hillsong People. If you do not know what Hillsong is, neither do I. But the local peeps told me that it's a singing church.

On that day, everyone who did lunch was doing the MEP at the back of house for the dinner period. Except me.

My the sky ah!! See......this proves that Tania hates me. Everyone was sitting down polishing, folding and stuff and I'm there getting ready for another buffet dinner.

And this Hillsong buffet dinner is like another church session but instead of in a church, it's in a expensive hotel.

What's worse than sitting down listening to a pastor preach? Standing up and listening to him preach WTF.

It's the gayest shittttt ever to be listening to a session while standing and your feet are about to die on you, ON A FRIDAY NIGHT!

I was SO angry! I mean, usually I would be like whatever, it's work so get over it. Banquets is no place to give an attitude. But on that day, my flu was super bad, cough was getting worse and I have been working for 5 days straight and I was THE ONLY ONE from lunch working at the dinner. My mood was sooooo foul.

As I was walking past the lunch crew at BOH, Myling was like 'Lesley, are you alright? Do you want to sit here and fold napkins while I go in there to clear?'. From Tuesday until the last night, everytime people see me, their first question is 'Are you OK?'. Yeah, I'm hella fine. Otherwise I wouldn't be here, would I? Geez.

I gave her an absolutely expressionless face and said NO, I'M FINE. I'm not angry at any of them. I'm just angry at the whole situation like why couldn't I get sick at another time or why is Tania only putting me to work in dinner, you know. Fucken bitch.

So like yeah. I was little 'Miss Attitude' there for a bit.

Myling was like asking me yesterday 'Are you still angry, Lesley?'. Of course, I'm not.

Last night was like the happiest day of my life wtf. Sat night was the biggest dinner we have for that week. About 800pax, it was tight!

And I was the floater!! I only did main course for the first 3 days and then on Fri and Sat, I was floater for both functions. I think it's because Grace and Adam knows I'm coughing like fuck so it's not that ideal for the guests to see me coughing at their plates. *wink*

And I did not do pre-dinner drinks as well for Sat's dinner. I was in the cloakroom with Hiroka! I love Sat!

I did not have to clear much too because at 11.30pm, I was called back to the cloakroom again and stayed there folding napkins until the function finished at 1am which by then most of the tables were cleared already. Muahahhahah!! I guess that will make up for the Friday shit.

No lar..I think it's because Grace and Adam knows I have not been feeling well for the past few days.

I was the only girl who started at 1pm and at 1.30am, Reza, Jacky, Apollo, Kar, Ryan, MJ, Alkis, Mikey and I signed off!! Woooootsss!! We decided to go to Haru Fusion for soju!

Obviously I did not intend to drink at all. I even ordered green tea as my main drink. Then Alkis made fun of my tea :((

"RES-REYYY! How's your tea????!"

Res-rey is the Chinese way to say my name wtf. Apolo sneered at my tea boohoo then Mikey poured me half a shot of soju which I downed in a gulp. Woooooopppie! I'm back!! FTW.

Another 3 half shots, I'm halfway there. But I cannot be there wtf coz I have to work at 10am tomorrow morning.

Today at work was siennn la! I was late to work for 20mins because I lost my proxy card yet again! Second time! It must have been last night at Haru coz Mikey kept my bag with the others and it must have fell out! Drink la drink summore! Mahai.

And I spilled a whole bucket load of dirty cutlery mixed with day old cold coffee/juice/water/spit wtf on the lift floor. Great! FAIL NO.1.

So fucken happy to sign off at 3pm!

*******

Mikey is such a typical Korean guy! He asked if I mind dating guys of other races, I said as long as there is mutual attraction then even if the guy is African I don't mind. Then his reply?

"Ooooo..black people 'very big' you know. Just like the one next to Hiroka"

Hiroka was sitting next to a fire extinguisher. HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH!!

We then asked if he was always big since a little boy. He told us he was able to buy cigarettes when he was 13 and his mum only found out he smoked when he was 28. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHH!!!!

*********

I have also been working closely with the new peeps at work. Billy is a HongKie and Egan is Indon both from Blue Mountains. Wesley is from ICMS and Vittoria is an Italian lady who is in her late 20s. I'm quite friendly with Billy and Egan but Wesley and Vittoria are still so-so.

Vittoria only eats protein and makes fun of Grace and I's instant cup noodles. FAIL NO.2.

Dunno how she can manage working 12 hours with just a cup of protein mousse and protein bar. If me ah, confirm give up already la.

Joseph quit suddenly and do you know? Jorge is gay.

When Mary told me, I was like 'NO WAYYYYYYYY! Are you serious??!'.

She sensed that Jorge might be one so one day, she asked him 'Do you have a bf, Jorge?'. He said yes.

OHHHH!! So cute!!! I love Jorge! He's slightly effeminate but is not OTT. Too bad I mistaken him for an Indian at first wtf.

*********

Tomorrow is my first day off since last week. I have 3 shifts in banquets next week on Thurs, Sat and Sun. As for now, I am working Tues night in Mosaic.

I'm going to love tonight's sleep!

Saturday, May 8, 2010

YES!!!

I scored a Distinction for my Sponsorship assignment!

Yo, I'm back.

Today did not turn out to be that bad afterall.

It was kinda quiet in Frasers and Tim actually offered to stay back and help do my job becoz 'I have another shift at 2pm later'.

Hence, off I go at 10am. Sweeeeet.

Reached home at 10.30am, slept until 12.30pm. Got ready and off I go to Westin.

I made a mistake. I thought we would be doing a 750pax dinner tonight but turns out it is for next week. We are only having a 800pax theater style meeting and cocktail party for 600pax.

And I was assigned to the cloakroom with Fiona. We all know what cloakroom means. Just stand there and help organise the guests' bags and coats. Easy peasy.

I just stood there the whole night from 6pm til 8.30pm. Damn boring one.

After the party finished, we are cleared and did MEP. And signed off at 11pm.

Say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa......?

Yeah, 11pm. It was so early it felt weird. Like I did not do any job at all.

Although I started at 2pm, by 11pm it felt like I have done a 12 hours shift. It was that freaking slow of a day.

Whatever. As long as I save all that energy for next week.

Next week's roster is out!
Mon: 1300-0100
Tues:1600-0400
Wed: 1600-0400
Thurs: 1500-0300
Fri: 1130-2300
Sat: 1300-0100

Six shifts, bitches.

******

Believe it or not, Tania is going to unleash the fruit of her loins upon us in 5 months' time.

Blasphemy!!!

Holy mother of God!

5 months' time!!

This is not good. What can be worse than Tania screaming at me when I'm working? A pregnant Tania screaming at me when I'm working.

I hope she will be too weak to screech by the time her trimester hits. Then she can just spend her days at home.

Which won;t make things that much better because Jacqueline is a supervisor now. She got promoted to a supervisor now. So she is same level as Bonnie, Grace and Mike.

Not that it bothers me too much because I don't hate her that much now. She doesn't pick on me anymore. I still try to avoid her as much as possible and try to minimise any contact with her.

*********

For some reason, I don't feel like I'm having a holiday now. It's like I'm back to IT after one term in ICMS.

It's ok.....I'm putting my time to good use and the money doesn't hurt either :))

How to write 'die' in Chinese? Part 2

I promised Keeven last week that I can work in Mosaic from Wed to Sat night for next week. And I was even planning on working in Frasers on Mon, Tues and Sun morning.

HOWEVER!

Tania saw me this morning in Mosaic and was like 'LESLEY! Are you on your school holidays???!'.

Lesley: Yeahhhhhhhh...... >.>
Tania: Were you gonna tell me that you're on your school holidays now?
Lesley: Yeahhhhhh.....of coz (absolute lie! too bad, it showed on my face so now Tania prolly knows FML). I'm working tomorrow night right? So I'll be seeing you anyways.
Tania: GOOD! Coz we are extremely busy next week.
Lesley: *dies a lil bit inside*

I swear to God, at that point I knew all my plans were going out the window and I will need to 're-plan'. F.

I went down to B2 after I signed off at 3pm. So that Tania can tell me that I now start at 2pm tomorrow instead of 6.30pm.

Which sucks elephant ass because guess what? I am working in Frasers at 5am tomorrow and was planning to have a afternoon nap before working in banquets at 6.30pm. I can now kiss that nap good-bye.

And she also told me next week I'll be getting like 5 to 6 shifts in banquets. FUCK THIS SHIT LA!!

I like to work obviously but I like to work at different places sometimes. Just to change it up and spend time with different people. I can work 2 days in Frasers, 2 days in Mosaic and 2 days in banquets. But now 6 days in banquets?

Shit thing is I will prolly need to work in Frasers as well on that one or two days that I'm not in banquets because Steven quit and went to Europe with his gf. So now they need me to work at least 2 days. I want to die nawwwwwwwww!!

I'll totally break my fingers in no time.

One good thing is $_$ *KA-CHING!!*

**********

The people in Mosaic is so damn hilarious one! We had this Italian guy, Federico who just came back from his leave today.

It's my first time seeing him. He actually look like Andres but handsomer and taller. The way he talk ah......damn native Italian la.

Everyone was like welcoming him back and giving him hugs and all that shizz.

Suddenly Jay Z put on his damn convincing Italian accent on and say "Why are you so famous now? You're in the wrong industry, man. You should go to King's Cross and become a Italian gigolo. You know what is a gigolo? Man-whore...."

I LOL-ed so hard and long at that!!!!!!!!

And Jasmine asked me about the exams. I told her it was kinda shit and her reply was 'So....will I be seeing you in Term 5 next month? HAHHAHA! '. I straight away shot back 'FUCK YOU!'.

I am NOT repeating Term 5!

********

Sydney is having the Australian Fashion Week or something and all the designers taking part are staying in Westin.

I did a few room service to these people and it was the coolest thing to see racks and racks of their collections in their room!

Too bad not all the people were friendly. Some of them think they are Coco Chanel herself wtf.

*******

I have acquired another useless piece of info in life. After doing so many MCQs in the exam, I have come to the conclusion that for every question number 6, the answer is always C.

Try it. WTF.

*********

Yesterday after our HR paper, Kim, Simone and I went shopping in the city to celebrate the end of exams.

I wanted to find some nude low heels but there were none. Instead I found quite a few pair from Yesstyle. After like 2 hours of researching, I saved up 18 pairs and eliminated them one by one. I have made my decision but not yet buy la. Still in the cart.

But I did buy the cutest jumper ever from French Connection.
Like my rabbit jumper or notttt?? The rabbits are made from cream and black sequins. The saleslady keep on reminding me to handwash it only. It's jumper, how many times do you think it'll get washed? At $70, it's pretty expensive but totally worth it!

The 3 of us were browsing at Ralph Lauren after that. Kim wanted to buy a polo tee so we accompanied her to try a few.

Camwhoring.
Texting.
Deciding wtf.
For dinner, we met up with Melody (i know right?? now i have to pretend nothing ever happened and be friends with her. Fre-nemy, ppl), Poppi, Cathy and Jessie. We popped over to Hurricane's Grill for some awesome ribs.
We had some garlic prawns, scallops and 'African' beef sausage with mash for entrees and 3 full racks for mains. Let's say it was a very satisfying dinner.

That night damn cold ok! I was wearing my white jacket but it was damn kao thin la!! It looks thick in the picture because my arms very thick ma wtf. And my new white scarf!

The perfect outfit to wear when you are having delicious ribs that has a 90% chance of staining your clothes.

Luckily I did not!

I really really really want to go shopping again but I need to find a new place to go! Maybe I can go back to Bondi's Westfield :)

But as you read above, I prolly don't even have time to sleep what more want to shop. Pfft.

Btw, I won the red-heart shaped sunnies for US$2.69! :D

We have come to another end.

I had my HR final paper this morning. Which means we have come to the end of yet another term in ICMS.

I found out that this term's final papers all require a substantial amount of writing writing writing and more writing. Hence, I have become really good in going on and on and on and on and on about things. WTF.

And I also finished my paper well ahead of the given time. The longest time I took for a paper this term is 1hour 40 mins and that was Sponsorship? I think.

Today's HR paper is supposed to be 2 hours long however, I found myself at the end of the paper 50 mins into the exam. Which I hope is not a bad thing. Coz usually people who finish early are the ones who have nothing to write hence finishing early. I usually have all my answers ready in my head during the 10 mins reading time.

OMG. So scared now.......Term 5 is over!!! After stressing over the exams, it's now time to stress over the results. Never ending shit.

*******

So exam over already? Do what? WORK!

I am working tomorrow 7am at Mosaic, 5am in Frasers, 6.30pm Banquets on Friday and 5.30am Frasers on Sunday. I get Saturday off! Sweettttt.

I actually know my timetable for next week too. Hahah! *plays The Apprentice soundtrack*

******

Am so addicted to online shopping now! I have been Ebaying over the past week and I browsed through Forever 21's website. They are having a sale. Shirts go for $10 and jackets for $15 and below. Shipping charges are $35 if I buy more than $100. Owh. We'll see. 

And Nordstrom's website, they sell all the nice designer bags and ships to Australia too! At the checkout, they will include all the shipping charges and duty etc so you can actually see how much you're paying. Awesome-est!

My scarf arrived and it smells funny, like it smells too new wtf. But it's so smooth man!! It cost me US$11.99 (cheap leh??) and then I found another seller selling the same thing for US$1.19 (super FML). So I bought one scarf from that seller too. Just to see if the quality and material is the same. If same ah, am gonna go bang my head on the wall.

I am currently bidding a heart-shaped lolita sunnies. The auction starts at US$0.01 so I bid US$0.50 thinking that no one will buy that shit. Who knows! Today I signed in to Ebay just to find out someone out-bid me!

So now the sunnies is at US$1.25. Gah!

Let's see what other cheap things I can bid on! :))

******

Just randomly remembered one thing Loong told me before.

"If the world doesn't have century egg ah, I don't want to live anymore"

Never fails to make me LOL.

******

I am going to Jia Wei's uni apartment to cook for them probably this Sat or next Tues. Can't wait!! We're gonna invite Jasmine, Max, Bee Ting and they all!!

Listen to Heidi.

I am not asking the guy about his balls wtf.

So there's this family that is staying in Frasers. Father, mother, son plus his wife and newborn baby son. They are from Malaysia. West Malaysia I say. Again, using my advanced, 'top-of-technology' analyzing skills wtf.

Anyways, the mother loves to talk to me and think that my name 'Wenfei' is very nice *shy* (not really).
The son and wife always orders soft-boiled eggs for breakfast. However, the chefs never get it right. We have 3 chefs, Santosh, Tim and Chris.

The eggs are either over-cooked, under-cooked or just not quite right. They usually order from me coz I'm Asian. I was particularly helpful towards them (kah kee lang ok)*halo plings*. From last week until this week, the eggs are never right. Until today.

I did not work at Frasers from Monday til Thurs due to exams. When I started work at 7am, Chris who is the head chef and the guy who actually pays my wages (yeah, he's the big boss) told me there were this Asian couple who came in and asked 'where's Heidi?' and told him that 'Heidi is very helpful and nice and blah blah blah'. *halo plings plings plings plings plings plings*

The Asian couple was referring to me. Coz my fake name on the badge I'm wearing is Heidi. The chef and Preston, the other guy who work with me told them Heidi is my working name wtf. Make me sound like hooker ah.

I was damn happy wei. My first praise at work from customers ok. Although they might be a bit bias as they knew where I'm from. Iiiitch ok. A praise is a praise. To Chris summore le.

Oh yeah, so today right. I finally told the chef how I usually do the eggs at home which is to boil the water, turn off the fire and put them in for about 4mins. And the eggs were perfect according to Mr Yap (the guy). *halo plings until fuse also broken*

And Chris is making fun of my name too. At one point, he was like 'Heidiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, can you take out the eggs?'. I was like >.>

Hence the reason I said I like working in Australia due to the low power distance.

********

Tim is this other chef we have working in Frasers. His sister and father owns a share of the catering company that I'm working for. So he's sorta boss but not quite.

But Tim is the walking definition of a dumb jock. You know, the kind you see in American high school who plays football and usually scores with hot girls. Uh huh, that kind. He's sorta dirty too. Like one time, the dishwasher broke down right and then he had to wash the dishes hahah. I was free so I helped him. He was teaching me  on how to wash dishes.

"You gotta wet them first. You know like, lube it up".

W-T-F? Lube it up?

You're just being a pervert aren't you?

And one time, I was in kitchen when he suddenly came up to me.

"I think I am thinking of things to do that will make me happy in life."
"Happy? Why? "
"Well yeah, coz I want to feel like I'm living my life to the fullest and so that I can have a better future you know *then proceeds to 'look into the distance' with a dumb look on his face*"
"Well, g'luck"

Despite these, he's not a bad person. He's actually quite nice and very entertaining. He says stupid things that entertain me when I'm bored or feeling like shit. And I don' t think he's even capable of scheming a plan to date-rape a woman or something coz he's simple-minded.

He told me he teaches kids horse-riding in the weekends. And he happens to work in the very place where I did my horse-riding 1 year ago. Glenworth, 1.5 hours drive away from Sydney.

This is random, but I just realised how small the world is. At least Sydney. I have worked with a few people whom I might have crossed path with in the past without me knowing them at all. It's just amazing. Ok back to Tim.

So yeah, Tim can be annoying sometime but I enjoy working with all the 3 chefs :))

********

Now because we are talking about Heidi, this brings me to a girl named Heidi Chai. I do not know her nor am I her friend. She is a friend's gf.

Anyways, I saw her once in a pic like 2 years ago? And she was quite big like almost my size maybe smaller (motherfucker, I'm always the biggest issn't it wtf). Then I saw her pic again early this year sumwhere on a friends's facebook page (omg, I sound like a stalker).

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. She's like 1/3 of her original size. Her arms are like as big as my wrists wtf. How the hell can she become so thinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn????

Dunno why but the first thing that comes to my mind was anorexic. Maybe I'm a pessimist. I say more likely jealous wtf.

No la........just makes wonder why other ppl can lose weight and I can't. I think it's because I love food way too much. Like I can pretty much only go this far with my weight. I don't really work out except when I'm working. That's my exercise and I eat a decent amount. Sometimes I pig out.

Another thing is you know how some guys who used to date lotsa skinny pretty girls during high school (using examples on the ones I see back in St Margaret's), they are all either dating or engaged to fat chicks right now. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAH!! WHICH! brings me to my conclusion that I might have a chance afterall. Roflmao!!!

I'm just joking. Honestly joking. I don't care one la. You guys know what I want the most and I will get it at all cost. My virginity excluded wtf.

Gawd, I wanna go shopping right now. Am waiting for my scarf to arrive in the mail. Bought it from eBay. Just so I have something to look forward to.
