end of my holidays
so i have been busy working day and night shifts, shuffling through home sahara and mac. work at mac is okay, except it gets really busy in the lunch hours. and then it quiets down at 2+. people are friendly there, with lots of malaysians there, so its a good thing we can speak chinese RIGHT in front of them without them understanding what we are saying about them! haha!
starting work on monday at Infor, a IT solutions company in west perth, which means i have to change bus in city to get there. and it isn't a very nice thing to wake up at 7am feeling cold and travelling by bus when its so cold. and then i leave work for home, again when its so cold. argh.
its been getting colder n colder now, it rained hails juz a few hours ago and i saw TWO rainbows! 2 okay! how often do we see a rainbow, and TWO rainbow at a time?
so im probably bloody shagged out after work everyday, on top of that, i have sahara to work at night and mac on weekends. oh gosh. the start of a new chapter in my life? den again, when i earn alot, i spend alot too. i actually bought the entire original series of sims 2.

another chapter in life
un-officially done with uni, and got myself a month of work experience with an IT solutions company in west perth as a test analyst. how much do i earn? zero. its mutually benefitting where i want and need the experience, while they need the people to test their products. while my mum wasn't exactly too happy that they aren't paying a single cent, i was, coz i wouldnt get a chance to work in an IT company competing against the other smarter ones rite?
furthermore, its only a month job. decided to work there for 4 days, while working my ass off at mac on fri and sat nites. at the same time, working dinner shift at sahara. in short, im going to be busy busy busy.
i've been scheduled to work next week at mac, on mon wed fri and sun. 20 hours and 30 mins in total. multiply that by 16.50 and i'll be getting near 350 a week, multiply by another 4 equals to near 1200! the best part i love about mac is that i'm getting paid every single minute. even if i come early or leave later, i am still paid! so, i'll try my best to go in as early as possible and stick around until i have to go..
the only concern i have is that i'll probably have to give up my sleep-as-long-as-possible sleeping hours.
i'm on my way to growing up!

choices
a month ago, i decided on going back to spore in july. a month later, i have 2 jobs on hand, 5 interviews for a test analyst and admin jobs. i am really spoilt for choices. the thing is? i dont wanna give up any of my waitress-ing jobs. why? becoz im paid 15 and 16.50 per hour? between sahara and mac, i know i have to give up mac becoz i have to take a bus there or rely on henry to send me there while sahara is just some 1 min walk away from home. of coz, mac is a worldwide known fast food while sahara is just a 3 week old singaporean malay-indian restaurant in the suburbs. its really hard to choose between them, since the test analyst or admin job will take up the usual working hours, so i can only choose between sahara or mac for my weekends.
gosh. im troubled when i dont have a job, im troubled when i have jobs too.
i went for mac's orientation program earlier on, collected a big sized uniform and a very baggy pants. best part - im paid for orientation! haha. people there are ultra friendly, although it was mostly angmohs today, but there are alot of asians there too on friday/saturday nights.
argh.

the last paper
software engineering 351 totally sucked big time today. the unexpected questions were in the form of 10marks and 16marks. oh god.
when i thought i could do well for this exam, going in rather confidently since i understood everything n memorized definitions.
anyway, been hanging out at the library or com sci building. talking about which, i slipped n fell off the stairs in com sci last friday evening. somehow i felt it was dark to see the next step, and told henry its so dark, and before i knew it i slipped. damm. thank god no one was around to witness that fall and a whining me.
all i had was tiger balm n some really hot menthol sticker pad for muscle aches which surprisingly worked! at least i can twist my feet to make a full circle today!
i started work at sahara restaurant last friday sat n sunday during lunch hours 11.30-2.30pm. lunch there isn't very busy as compared to dinner time, all i have to do is to say HI when someone comes in, take their orders, send the order slip to the kitchen, serve and the lady boss does the cashiering most of the time. Sahara is a malay-indian restaurant that actually provides sheesha for just $15! Opened by a singaporean family of singhs, even the chef was flown in from spore 3 wks ago! haha, they are all pretty nice people!
not sure about the salary though, but what i heard from friends is that singaporeans indians are rather stingy about the pay, so im probably expecting $7 or $8 per hour? anyway, i've been having calls regarding temp jobs i've applied for, so i wont be staying long in sahara. it was good to have some waitressing experience although i kinda hate it after the first day, but i get free food when i work there!
okay, so.....friday will be my last paper for uni! feel kinda... she bu de...cant bear to leave curtin.

7th dream
another dream! this time, it was just me mabel and joy and... steven. no idea why he was there, but he juz popped up out of nowhere with his sports car helping me to chase mabel n joy.
scene looked really eerie, with some signboards saying some ghostly stuffs i forgot what, but anyway, mabel n joy entered it, so steven juz appeared and we were following them. surprisingly, mabel n joy went in for the hawker centre n the cheap stuffs! it look as if it was some kind of border near malaysia, so there were alot of shops selling handicrafts/joss sticks stuffs and den i was asking mabel how much does it cost to fix my earrings! few days ago, the beads of my earrings came off, but i got it fixed back. and in the dream i actually asked mabel how much to fix it!?!?
mabel n joy seemed to be always in my dreams. 7, to be precise. i have never never never dreamt this much in spore!
and.....天真的给了我一些暗示，虽然不是很明确的暗示，但还是暗示！

选择
人，总是在烦着人身当中的选择。我，也被“选择”烦了好久。
还记得2005年头，我做了人身最大的选择-就是出国读书。两年后，我不但没嫌弃身活很闷，我反而习惯这里的身活。现在，我的选择将会影响我的未来。
我不想回家，但又会想家。我要在这里工作，但工作一个也找不倒。
第一：回家。
第二：继续留在这里找工。
其实，我的答案是第二，可是我也不能在这里一至找工。钱和时间的问题吧。
我不想因为我的选择又失去“他”。
好烦好烦。
天啊，给我一些暗示好吗？
