i cant wait for my 3 week holiday!
24th : to spore
27th : to bangkok
2nd : to spore
7th : to hk
16th: to spore!
i went for this job "interview" in city where the person wanted me to sit in with this other guy whom i'll be replacing if i do accept the job. its a really smalllllll company and the position is just a IT helpdesk support lah but they make it sound as if its more important that that. and they're willing to pay A$160 a day for me! thats equivalent to A$20 per hour! but i said no.. and i think the hiring manager irena was abit disappointed and maybe angry? i dunoe lah, but they sort of wasted my time too by making me sit in with that guy for 1.5 hours only to make me feel this is not the job and company i wanna be in. best part was that irena finished her meeting only at 4.30pm when she told me to come in at 11.15am! crazy lor, lucky i didnt and i came in only at 1+.
anyway, im pretty sure that there'll be some where that suits me in spore lah. low pay long hours also no choice lah. or maybe i can bluff them that im taking a part time degree at night so i have to finish work early.
just last sat, i went ktv-ing with a bunch of com sci pple at crown. i didnt think that it would be so expensive just to sing! A$374 for a normal room!!! on top of that we had 2 VSOP hennessy and 1 chivas which is like 190 each and 135 each! OMG. i think i prefer the 11 bucks for 3 hours at kbox which includes lunch n drinks. and since most of them were from hongkong, my ears had to suffer from the hk's chinese accent from 11 - 3+ am .

its been a long time
i forgot about this blog until mabel asked for my address.. been a long time since i posted hey! my life is still the same, work eat watch mobtv loh. but my mum n aunt came over last week for my graduation ceremony! we took the tour down to wave rock (4 freaking hours there!) which is so amazingly natural! its nicer than nature's window in kalbarri, except the shell beach in denham cant beat any others. anyway, it was a pretty long week for both me n henry, since he had to drive us on some days, as well as provide special delivery for the fussy singaporeans. i tink the main problem was that food wasn't toooo much to their liking, even my chilli pepper chicken didnt manage to win them over. jennifer said it tasted like nuggets. -_- since when she ever had nuggets in the first place? both of them were forced to eat mac donald's muffins for breakfast - something they never never touched in spore. so in the end, my poor henry had to bring a toaster, bread, butter, nutella and horlicks for me on the same night he had to cook spagetti for us coz mum kept asking if anywhere sells spagetti. the receptionist in the hotel was like "hey what's happening!" when she saw us bringing a big pot and plate of spagetti noodles and a huge salad bowl.
perth didn't have much to offer them since we didn't drive to any nearby places to see dolphins or the jetty. we just hanged around city and harbourtown, and swan river coz mum apparently loves swan river. the week's stay with them made me slept early and wake up early after they left.. but....... on monday morning, i fell off my bed at 8am becoz while i was dreaming, this big insect was coming towards me so i was trying to jump away or something, and i landed on the floor. thank god my room is carpeted. 2 hours later, my aunt from msia called me crying to tell me my dad is in a critical condition lying in the hospital. and then i felt, perhaps that fall was a sign.. she kinda begged me to talk to him, but i didnt want to. in the end all i said was 3 hellos. although i sort of regretted not saying more to him, but at that time my mouth just couldn't open to say anything more. at about 11.30pm i got a sms from her saying my father has passed away. and he would be cremated and his ashes would be thrown into port klang.. my first thought was OMG wont the fishes eat the ashes?! and i believe lots of people are doing that since my aunt got the package where the boat is provided.. gosh. the people who eat the fishes!!!
anywayyyyy.... im going to perth royal show later!! YAY! looking forward to it since months ago, and since i'll be going back spore in dec, this might be my last royal show! but on the other hand, i feel bad coz whilst my father's family is crying, im making merry here..
another good news for me... we'll be going to hongkong n macau on 8th december! yay.. although it was supposed to be europe, but for me now, its the people that matters, not so much the place. my plan is to go back spore end nov and then go thailand for a week with henry, but.. phuket is out coz he's scared of tsunami. hahahahha.
