finally.
i can blog again...
last week i worked all weekdays,
10-10...
which makes me about $300 richer ;)
totally worn out..
had to drag myself out of bed
on sat early morn for the medical checkup
at town.
my house is just 15mins from town.
after the checkup,
had a quick bite and rushed off to cell group.
by then my energy level was 50%...
after cell group rushed down to service..
after service my energy level went back to 100%.
church always does that for me..
so basically today was my only off-day
from all the activities.
woke up at 1pm. -_-
(can you blame me?6 hrs of sleep throughout the week,
when i'm used to 9hrs.)
had brunch, and played with rainbow all the
way till 4.
i've missed her sooo much.
wonder if she felt neglected..
i could only say hi to her every morn before
i left for work.
went to pluck my eyebrows (owowOW)
and went on a junk food shopping spree
with my mum.
i intend to pass time at work by
stuffing myself silly.
the next time i blog will be sat/sun..
just so you ppl know...
and come here for nothing except
for free music >.<
do tag though!!
after this week's work i can only conclude:
People are weird.
its true that only when you work
you'll meet all kinds of funny ppl.
lemme list them down.
1)Vain people.
Everyone is vain to a certain extent.
But i reeally can't stand it when people
pretend to be interested in my stall's stuff
while examining their reflection in the
antique mirror.
There was this guy who actually stopped,
took out his comb, and combed his hair.
I can't help but glare at such people.
The thick-skinned ones don't even care.
2)People who are more interested in ME.
Guys aside,
there was this one lady who kept looking at me
while i was trying to explain my products
to her..
and when i was done she asked me:
You're mixed blood right?
I said: No.
She then said:No lah, you're mixed.
OHMYGAWD.
i was dumbfounded.
who should know better what heritage i am?
MYSELF, not her, a COMPLETE stranger!!
she remarked:you're very pretty.mixed.
and walked off.
3)Children who think my stall is a playground.
There was this kid who was running round and round my stall,
playing hide-and-seek with his dad.
and his dad was rather stupid.
he kept chasing behind his kid.
and never could catch him.
finally, after the 74674th time,
i felt super dizzy and told the man that he should run the
other way.he did, and caught his kid.
-___________-
many more...
but here's something EXCITING.
it was..er..wednesday afternoon i think.
the crowd was missing,
and the whole shopping centre was kind
of sad and empty.
this guy came to my stall.
he looked like a chinese contractor..
company shirt,rugged pants..
he kept touching my stuff.
at first i just let him browse.
but after a long time he was still there,
so i approached him, and asked him
whether he was looking for a gift.
he mumbled something totally incomprehensible.
so i just let him look around more.
it was then that i noticed something weird.
he kept almost-falling-asleep.
i thought he was gonna faint at times
or fall on his back.
then a sudden thought came to mind-
could he be drunk?
and i remembered that episode on the mrt.
but i didn't catch a whiff of any alcohol.
the guy realised that i was staring at his actions.
he muttered something about packing stuff.
so i thought that he must be tired from work.
then suddenly he took up one of the necklaces
and BIT it.
and then he tugged on it very hard.
i totally freaked out,
but kept telling myself over and over again that he
was prob. testing the necklace.
but somehow that logic didn't satisfy me.
at that point in time i was just grateful that the necklace
he chose had a metal-wire threading so it didn't break.
then he put down the necklace,
picked up another, and tried
to EAT a black bead on it.
MY GOODNESS.
i had to use all my might not to die from fright.
i tried to attract the attention of the two women tending
the stall next to mine,but to no avail.
then suddenly someone tapped on my shoulder.
i spun around to see the lady who tended
my boss's other stall at the end.
she told me that she had been observing him,
and had phoned security.
i was so relieved..
the guy was still biting the necklace.
i half-wished that he would swallow it and die.
which is totally mean, but put yourself in my shoes.
but then i thought that a dead body at my stall
wouldn't be great,
so i wished that security would hurry.
the lady whispered to me: He's on drugs.
Suddenly it all fell into place.
he's not mad..
cos mad people don't doze off while standing up.
he's not drunk..not a whiff of alcohol.
which leaves us with drugs.
thats the only thing left which will alter a person's
actions and behaviour.
a million thoughts were running through
my head.
my brain was in overdrive mode.
then...the guard came..and led him away.
he was so groggy, he didn't even resist.
the guard came back later to check how i was.
i was fine by then,but totally GROSSED out
bu the fact that i had to wipe the 2 necklaces
he bit for obvious reasons.
i was also a little cranky.
the security at my working place
NEVER patrol the shopping centre.
that's why weird people hang out there,
even though its town,not some neighbourhood.
(fyi there are gays looking for partners openly too)
so i told the guard that had there been
regularly patrolling, such things would not happen.
he was apologetic,and promised that
he would send people to patrol more often.
true to his word..guards patroled much more often
in the following days.
the end.
out of all the weird people i have met,
i can now add 'drug addict' to my list.
funny that it always takes something
serious to make people get up and move.
it takes a bomb attack to increase security,
it takes HORRIBLE grades to make a person
study,
it takes a death to treasure your loved ones.
and so on...
not forgetting.
it takes a drug addict to make lazy guards patrol more.
-_-"
no one came to visit me at work this week =(
my friend went today but i was off.
sooooo sorry!!but i did meet one of my church friends
when i went down to buy food from
mos burger.
she was with some school mates
and a guy who was
rather cute.
you know my standards..so that means
he's not bad at all.
i walked over to say hi.
i was so relieved to find a familiar face.
funnily, the guy looked somewhat surprised
when i walked past him and chatted with my friend.
i soon found out why..
my friend later told me that he
was project superstar's nat.
chey.
bet he thought i was gonna ask him for an autograph.
haha.i never get caught up with such things.
my poly stuff are almost settled..
i have a question: is pink hair allowed in poly?
cos I STILL WANT IT.

even miss avril has it.
she hasn't been very nice after marriage,
once even spitting at fans.
but anyway, i love her hair.
my hair is getting straight.
i think my curls are wearing out.
but they look so nice and natural now.
back to the subject.
i used to think avril was sooo pretty.
until i saw this.
without makeup.
http://www.zonalibre.org/blog/nivonog/archives/avril_lavigne_no_makeup_04.jpgshudder.
but in case anti-makeup people
started getting all smug..
read this.
its the most ingenious post ever.
http://xiaxue.blogspot.com/2003/08/quite-often-i-get-comments-like-this.htmlhope this has been a long-enough post.
and OH,
pink is the colour of 2007.
not my fav colour,
but it would look good on hair.
but i only like this shade of pink.

lest i emerge from some salon looking awful.
