Haha, it's been a long time since I posted something. I meant to give a lengthy update but I got carried away reading Anne Rice's Interview With The Vampire (totally justified, coz Lestat and Armand are hot and pitiful blokes
noIdidn'tcried) so it's time for another one of my condensed posts~! 8D
As per usual, I shall only update with things I deemed worthy to mention. *lazypeas*
*~*11th February, Wednesday*~*My original plans was screwed up a bit so I was quite free for the whole morning. Met up with a friend at CCK MRT where we took a bus to Orchard. This is like the umpteenth time I've been to Orchard this year but there isn't really much to do in small Singapore. OTL Went to grab a bite and I got my present from him, this really fancy looking mirror that we saw at Bugis the other day! So utterly pretty~! And you can slot a picture in the top mirror! *lovesloves it*
And for a lack of better things to do, we walked all the way to Clarke Quay after that, lol. There was also this guy who asked us for the kiblat (direction to face when performing prayers) at Takashimaya. That's right - the kiblat in a
shopping center district. After directing him to the mosque nearby, we continued walking only to have the sky wrenched it's clouds dry on us. Thank god I had an umbrella but we were still drenched. OTL
And another thing that I've learnt is that it pays to be shameless. Initially, my friend wanted to get this butterfly pendent for me that we saw at Bugis but the bloody sod manning the cart stall had it sold off already. And sacre bleu, we saw it at Clarke Quay! At the cart stalls near the clubs by the Singapore river! The owner was a really funny guy, haha. Our exchange went something like this...
Me: Excuse me, how much is this?
Guy: Twenty-two dollars.
Me: //WTF. The one at Bugis was $25.//
Friend: You wanna get it?
Me: I'm not so sure... But I really like it...
Guy: *took down the pendent* Thank you~!
Me: O_O //Is he being sarcastic or something?// Um...
Guy: Okay, okay. How about $18?
Me: !! ... $18... The one we saw at Bugis was $25...
Guy: Bugis Junction right? That's another one of my store.
Me: !!! Okay... o_o Mm... $18 is a good price but... Price cannot be lowered any more? It's my birthday today...
Guy: Okay lah. Fifteen dollars.
IT PAYS TO BE A SHAMELESS PLUG. >8D
*~*13th February, Friday*~*Friday the thirteenth stayed true to its name. There was this creepy guy who followed me around in NTUC during my work break and he tried to exchange numbers and was all leery. When I told him I didn't have a handphone, he told me to ask him out one day and we can go shopping for one together. I dumped his number afterwards. I didn't like him. D:
*~*28th February, Saturday*~*IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE MY PAYDAY DAMMIT.
HQ didn't receive the part-timers' work hours so no pay for us. Yet. BUT STILL. D<
*~*02nd March Monday*~*WORKED FROM 8AM TO 11PM FFFFF-
STOCK-TAKE IS A HATEFUL BEETCH.
*~*04th March, Wednesday*~*Which is yesterday~! One of the rare occasions when I decide to look good working so I applied make up haha. And there was this Malay guy with two friends and two little kids looking at hair dyes while I was doing stock-receiving nearby. It went something like this..
Little kids: *doing what little kids do best, making noise*
M.Guy: [in malay] Don't be so noisy, wait you'll disturb that sister.
Me: *ignores coz oh god SIX toteboxes to go through OTL*
Little boy: EH THIS HAIR DYE IS GOOD IT IS IT IS.
M.Guy: Eleh, this little kid like real liddat. As if he's the one who's gonna dye his hair.
Me: *snorts with laughter*
M.Guy: Hmm? *notices me*
Me: *bites lip to stiffle smile*
M.Guy: Eh.. *motions to the kid* This sister like knows what we're talking about...
Me: *pretends to be engrossed in papers*
M.Guy: CHEE CHONG FUN CHEE CHONG FUN.
I totally started grinning then. It was either that, or laughing like a maniac.
He was out at the store waiting for me during closing time and we walked together to the MRT. We talked and he was kinda... a touchy-feely guy. But friendly enough, so I didn't mind much. Before you go "OMG WHORE ALERT." at me, I have to say that I've been feeling rather... lonely lately. Everyone went on their separate ways to their respective schools and everyday, work has been a monotonous routine for me. Though I don't complain coz I could be having it much worse, I sometime wish that things would be a little different. I feel so unhappy sometimes.
But like I said, I'm grateful for what I have so yeah. ...I don't really make much sense now coz I have to leave for work yet there is this pull towards finishing this post so I am just letting my thoughts flow through my fingers onto the keyboard and- ... Okay what was I talking about again? XD
So it's off to work now. I'll be having lunch later with the guy. We'll see how things go on from there. (:
