So wat should I do ?

Go or not?

It is foolish to think about that

I am not like in the past ... do and just do it
Looking forward and exciting about them

Just one bad word about it got me all down and unmotivated
it is very easy
1) finish one tour with a clenched teeth
2)finished one tour you can have the experience of a lifetime.

If I don't go , when will I have to see the stars and the sand , sea , scenery again?

hahaah ,
And the $$$ factor ...

i guess I better postpone it to further date

Okok wat's up?

Got struck with 'Han FONG' got my hair messy (yes , struck lying on bed and watch till my hair are so messy !!!!)
Recently I am seriously addict to korean drama ... I have not been in fever ever since the drama Winter Sonata , Autumn Story , All about Eve .
I am watching this old drama called Jin Shil (Truth) starring Choi Ji Woo (famous by her winter sonata) and Ryu Shi Won (famous by his Beautiful Days) .

The story begins "What would you do if you were sitting in the backseat of a car when a car accident takes place and wakes up to see that you are sitting in the driver's seat accused of causing the accident? Shin Hee has used Ja Young as her shield maltreating her in dexterous ways since childhood. Shin Hee uses Ja Young's low status as a daughter of her father's car driver... "

yes , I like the tubulences against the 2 lovers and how they overcome it. My god, it's so ...fairy tale..
How this thrilling plot reels me in and leaves me wanting more...and more...and more....and then I am hooked

I swear that I will never watch any bloody unrealistic bluff -u fairy tales from any freaking -same-old-story -about-cinderella -ending-or -leukemia-sicko-ending k drama

All bcoz of that Channel 8 currently now showing "stairway to heaven " starring Choi ji woo and Kwon Sang Woo . I am on the verge of buying their VCD set.

You know... I will be very frustrated if the story goes in climax and then the whole screen will pause suddenly (indicating the end of todat's episode) .
Instead of buying the vcd , i digged out those K drama that I have not seen.Since on I have been glued on the tv once I 'm back from work. (Jim Shil) Darn , should not have watch ....

same old stereotypical thing la... the poor and the rich or the good hearted always with the rich blah blah ...
All bout modern 'Cinderella' story..that's y it's touching .

Despite the stereotypical .. i can feel the heart pain and eye tearing as the damsel in destress choi ji woo (darn that actress , she acted so well...) walk away in tears ...breathtaking scenery backed up by melancholic music tunes.

The producer had the most evilest mind and contridictingly , had the most innocence and the nicest heart. They are excellent in use of parallelism and repetition compounded the dramatic effects in scenes

Parallelism - The 2 lover do the same thing like passing by each other without knowing ... going back to the place where they lst met and been nostagic
repetition - remember the things that they do together.....ahh memorable..

This concluded one sentence

" where the hell can I can get such a nice, rich , new age sensitive ,intellectual, prefect guy and girl like from these freaking drama in REAL live????? "

It is downright depressing when u get back to reality and found that yourselves saying "darmit the fairy tale!!! My friend/family members had just broke up from her/his almost prefect bf/gf and becoz they found out that they cheat on them/flirting/pick their nose/snoring when sleeping/bad odour/shit without flushing ..blah blah blah etc etc etc... "

It is not easy to be a prefect lover just like in the K drama , u got to obey the rules of criteria:
1) rich
2) kind hearted
3)successful
4)must able to see the goodness in a lady/Guy although they are unwealthy
5)megawatt smile like those in that winter sonata 'Bae'-almost -perfect (I forgot his name, u know who i am saying)
6) a smile that says "everything is ok "
7)cannot flirt
8)extra caring....always
9) treat a girl like she is everything
10) smart in studying
11) can cry like real
12) can cry at a snap of fingers
13) new age sensitive eg. when the girl over at the phone is very upset , you must feel that she is really upset although she say she is ok , the next thing u do is to rush (yes, it is better that u can drive a posh car) over her house and ask her wat's wrong and u will wait for her in the cold until she comes out.
14) yes.. drive a car , better a nice 1
15) must able to detect wat's really happen to her although the girl don't say so
16) yes..must really feel ......
17) ya, guys only fall for good hearted nature girls , and once they find 1, they are like a glue
18)the lady must take the blame of the bad that is happening although it is not her fault19) The lady cannot pretend to be kind hearted
20) the lady must avoid the male lead for a moment
21) lady must quiet and cannot boost herself
22) the lady cannot say that "it is not my fault wat , she set me up mah so to break us up...
23)the guys is very persistent to the girl they loved and will never never tempted by other sexy korean girls (okay , if we can see this type of guys in Singapore , we shall not care about rest the rules I had stated)
24) tall
25)good built , not too skinny and too fat
26)love pets
27) go against the parents will and love the girl
28) love the girl till they died and after they died
29 misses the girl only and must remember the good moment they have been together and after this the guy calls the girl " XXX.... "(guy) , "yes?" (say the girl), " hupm "(smiling at other end) , "... "I misses u ..keke .."
29)handsome is essential
30 )fillial piety
31)musically talented
32) must have at least 1 talent to show off to the girl repetitively etc play a tune
33)must be able to give surprises that means u dun tell her b4 hand wat he wants to do
34)grip her hand and take (and run) her to the surprise although she 's reluctant DUN tell her
"come come, a... steady lei" OR give up when she's reluctant
35)prefect guy DON't ASK "be my gf can or not " .
36) cook a good kimchi
37) go ice skating if they wan love to bloom
38) pull her crying face close and cry in front of the girl tell her u will never leave her and tell her u really really love her , better still the background must be really romantic . This rule is important
39)they dun argue like hooligan , they listen to u and smile and forgives u ....even to the badies

the list goes on

yawning ... I am sleeping

Oh ya .. just got 2 more vcd to watch
The newest korean drama hit "jewel in the palace" coming up for me to watch
when can I finish ? Korean drama can be quite long winded sometimes .. keke

Oh yes , today i will be dreaming about The Bahama , Florida

The sun sand sea scenary is getting closer

I heard a song over Class FM 95.

This song is called "BAd Day " By David Powter after a long fanatic search in the net....

This song strike a chord in me after hearing initial during I am working and the loud radio blast out the song "you're having bad day, the camera don't lie .."

I am not having a BAD day but just that a song that is so sweet coz really describe our life !

When I heard this song , I smile because everyone do have many (not a ) bad day in their life just like what the song says 'Sometimes the system goes on the blink and the whole thing it turns out Wrong .You might not make it back and you know that you could be well oh not that Strong ...' it is either you turn it positively 'Cause you had a bad day ,You're taking one down, You sing a sad song just to turn it around ' or you can kick up a bad temper 'So where is the passion when you need it the most, Oh you and I ,You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost'

So what else the song told us if we are really blue feeling cranky?
GO For A BLuE Sky HoliDay !!!
Or WorkinG On a Smile , go For a Ride !
okay, I will need that someday !

Bad day by David Powter

Where is the moment when we need it the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue sky's faded to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carrying on

Stand in the line just ahead of the law
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carrying on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carrying on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride

Sometimes the system goes on the blink and the whole thing it turns out Wrong
You might not make it back and you know that you could be well ..oh that Strong
Well I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

WATSon warehouse sales from 18 to 21 Aug. ITE clementi .

left work at 3 somrthing and went to the sales.
Bought so much things . I am broke ..
a lot of lobang . Tell you sometimes .

Madly msg ping the lobangs ....

I told her no choice , my work is so flexible that much formidable than The Quidam Cirque du Soleil acrobatic act .

Too bad is contract.
ping msg "yea , contract staff aka contract tai-tai. "

Quidam: a nameless passer-by, a solitary figure lingering on a street corner, a person rushing past. It could be anyone, anybody.
Someone coming, going, living in our anonymous society.
A member of the crowd, one of the silent majority.
The one who cries out, sings and dreams within us all.
This is the "quidam" that Cirque du Soleil is celebrating.

A young girl fumes; she has already seen everything there is to see,
and her world has lost all meaning.
Her anger shatters her little world, and she finds herself in the universe of Quidam.
She is joined by a joyful companion as well as another character, more mysterious, who will attempt to seduce her with the marvelous, the unsettling, and the terrifying..

Just recently , I had adjusted my working hours--- till later
I found out that I can come as and when as I like as long as I will able to complete the duty for that day. (bleachz ---flexible hour la)
Hence, I am going to wake up at 9am or 10 pm in the morning , preparation and reaCH outram at 11pm or 12noon.

Reason : to avoid the MRT crowd

Everyday , especially the morning from 6am to 9.30am or evening 4.30pm to 8.30pm (or more), I will occur certain type of people that is noteworthy.

Before starting a busy day at work , I had already wore out by my transportation.
Why why why ?
Study below the types of people I will have to overcome and conquer everyday

The first in line are the "Drifters". Imagine standing behing the yellow line waiting for the train. Somewhere, somehow, when you least expected, someone will silently and slowly drift in front of you, making full use of the narrowest space between your feet and the line to mark their territory. Simply awesome man.
The authorities should seriously consider recruiting them for special ops missions.

That's not the worst, people actually dare to stand in the middle when people stand at the side will staring at him/her. Normally those people are aunties or uncles or elderly. What's more , stand at the middle , ignoring the yellow line. (comon the government spend so much $$ to pain our floor bright bright for wat ?) Okies, nevermind, when the door opens, ppl from inside will rush out like madbull rushing.

Those people who stand in the middle will realised that they can't move in directly . Heck! Then this is what they will do; they give one big step to the side(where I am standing )and 'BAng!" they push and knock me to the further back after stepping my toe (ouch! FREE FOOT REFLEXOLOGY is it? Thank you so much , I feels so good all over my body already.). They just don't care!
What's more? The people inside rushing out, once more, knock me unconcious.... (yea, free full body massage )

You know , while waiting , I can't help to think what evil plot is the person standing beside me is harvesting la.. it is just too competitive !!!!!

The second group are the "Rugby players". I tell you, this group will put the kiwis and springboks to shame with their instinct and quick reaction. Expect a titanic clash everytime the train doors open.
I will take a deep breath and count "3...2...1! BRACE ,BRACE ,BRACE!!!!!!!BRACE FOR THE POSITION !!!!)
The people on the outside and those on the inside will clash and scramble like there's no tommorrow man.

THE GREAT NEWS - The person who standing furthest away from the yellow line got the sit. Me, standing at the nearest yellow line ... left stranded (T_T)

Great worldclass sportman can be audition from those selected group of people; people who always "coop" the best position - The edge just beyond the yellow line (better still---those people in no line ! In the middle, obstructing the traffic flow!)

Sometimes I am so amused by the adrendaline of those desperated pax who wants to chope a sit in the peak period. To them , it is such a intellectual strategic sport.

There are elderly who looked frail and walking really slow with stick. Once the train heading towards east comes, they started to run (walking really really fast)to the train and managed to coop a sit. My lst reaction is " marvellous! bravo !BUT BE CAREFUL! " @.@ YooooOooo... Marvel Marvel !

One time , I saw a man stood up at a station he is going to alight and immediately ; "pump!" a slack of newspaper flinged by a old man 1,5 metres away from the crowded train to the sit just before anyone could sit on it. Then , he moved slowly towards the sit and sit down. People just amused and stared at him. I want to laugh leh..
I am stunned coz I am amused at his such desperating, crapping, creative method to chop a sit,in such an extend.I called it a " frisbee game".

Just one recent morning , 2 china couple fan two vacant sits immediately after 2 pax left. I turned my head to see y are they not sitting down ... and saw the show.
after Finished fanning, they used the newspaper to slap the sit few times before they sit down. WAHHHHHH!

The MRT plasma Tv that shows the time arrival of the MRT is a big 'flat' liar. Sometimes I feel that is it just a consolation to ever time- lacking SIngaporean. It's a psychological stuff.

The Board says " 3 MINS" - ----- suddenly it turned 2 min and a few sec later ---1 min ---train arrived
The Board says "1 mins" -------- The train arrived 3 mins later ..or more
One more thing -- the lighting of the new MRTs is so bloody-eye-shot bright like sitting in the class III fumehood in the biohazard lab. Evil conspirary isn't it by the designer of this type of MRT? TO MAGNIFY and LET PEOPLE SEE HOW DULL AND BLACK UNDER EYE CIRCLEs WE have AFTER HARD day WORK? EYE pain wor!

Sometimes, i ponders , wonders ... look at the MRT scene " ISn't a magnifying but small version of good example of "The fittest will survive" game?

Really , people will only demostrated their talent, skills and intellectual when their survival is been threatened.

Family union dinner (A field trip to observe fine dining, actually). They are some of my coursemate (aka monkeys). They are extremely hilarious group of people (haha..beri funni). A very happy memories left behind and also very thanks for Zainai , our trainer for the exp dinner treat. Very nice man ,very experience and knowledge in hospitality yet very humble.. also tolerating "my- do- what- I -want" and "half -closed eyes" in class (beri bad)!!! Always says "voila!"

Conclusion for the whole observation field : Very very underrated. I gives 1/10 stars.
- service staff very unattentive ; u can wait for ages for EVERY REQUESTS -staff dun keep promises..
PS#i dropped my chopsticks, i went to the front to get a new pairs and a staff asked me to sit down , he said crossly "JUSt SIt DOWN..'. Okay , patter almost gonna finish by the rest ...he had not come with my chopsticks :) The rest of them requested something, people just dun come back with their promise.
- No service recovery done
-white wine 's cork broke (the debris of the broken cork fall into the wine and spoilt the good stuff.
-lighting bad
-ambience bad -loud "happy birthday group" beside us. We can hardly hear each other, we thought we are in the cheap kopi tiam eating plain noodle .
-the last food: fruits - watermelon and melon , those cheapo stuff ... SHARED somemore.
-bAD taste cream based pasta (cost 16 bucks plus plus /plate) , sotong is over cooked... I don't want to tok abt it.
-okie..there is a lot of a lot of COMPLAINS ... i had a high expectations , i am sori becoz the "fine dining" cost $35 ++ /person!

All of my coursemates are very experienced personals who have been working in hospitality line for many years! Thanks them for teaching me on how to be critical (keke ... I mean criticism coz having high standard)and attentive in service line.

Sky is going to rain. Wind is blowing. Looking out from my windown --- lush greenery scenenary from my home. Time passed fast , those trees used to be a bamboo -thin shoot with barely any leaves attached on them when I just moved in. Now? Trees grown so much over the years that , I can't see the bus stop opp.
