Return to work after 2 days MC on Friday. The Doctor initially only give me 1 day MC but I told him that I need 2 days. Luckily I request that cos on Thursday, I am still having high fever and bad cough. Dino(My Manager) was on leave and I pass the MC to Ah Peng instead. The moment I punch in for work, Faizal ask me am I okay and even smile at me for the very first time. He chat with me a bit at work. Things went a little haywire when Dino is not around. Faizal ask me to stand at the cashier to learn how they went about doing their work but they were too fast! Plus during that time was lunch hour so it was quite busy and I didn't get to learn anything in the end.

Ah Peng then prepare breakfast for me and ask me to go for break first. I expect the crowds to be more on Friday but strangely, it was not as crowded as I expected again. After eating the breakfast that Ah Peng prepared for me, I felt very full for the rest of the day.

Doing closing with Ah Peng and she leave me alone to do the cashier as she expects me to be familiar after teaching me just once. But I look at my notes to do it. The amount tally in the end and strangely, Ah Peng is always the last to leave. By the time I end my shift, it's about 7.15pm. Went home to change and went to BaoBei's place late at night.

Nowadays I dislike BaoBei more and more. Some times I feel like being alone and don't see him for some time. Feel that he's no longer the same as before. I have talk to him but he insist that he has never change.

Didn't went for CG and service again. I am feel very exhausted after a long day of work and sleep almost the whole day at BaoBei's place. His Mum wasn't very happy whenever I did that though. Went for dinner with his Mum at KFC and saw my ex-KFC Manager there. After all these years, he's still the same. I heard that he's still single? Strange. I thought Aidah told me he has a girlfriend? After dinner, we went back and I am being demanding about BaoBei. I don't know is that the correct term for "Ye Man?" Instead of shouting at me, BaoBei calmly went to buy drinks for me - with a sulky face of course. I half expect me to shout back at me but he didn't. He's just so nice *guilty*

Lots of people are blogging lesser and lesser nowadays but they are more into the FACE BOOK thing. I wonder what is it anyway? Seriously, until now I still don't know how to use FACE BOOK. Anyone can give me a step-by-step tutorial on Facebook?

I think I will end here for now. Will blog again some other time

1st + 2nd day of work + Sick le = HeLp!!!

Went for work yesterday and it was my very first day at work. The colleagues there are generally very nice. Work is from 9am - 7pm. I am very tired but at least I am happier there than in office work.

The first day, I called wrongly for one of the chef's name. His name is actually Faizal. But someone told me his name was Rahim? No wonder during the first day when he saw me, he gave me a very black face and refuse to answer me. I called his name wrongly! He gave me quite a lot of things to do, so my time for the first day passes very quickly. Before my Manager left, he ask me whether I like the job and whether the environment suits me? I said yes. He was glad that I liked the job. Went home at 8pm because of the cashier float thingy. Sian! Everything also must do! Luckily I had some cashiering experience beforehand and F&B experience so I could learn things much easily.

I had to stand throughout the day for more than 8 hours. So you can imagine how sore my feet are when I reach home. But after the first day, I had a very high fever upon reaching home and block nose. Had difficulty sleeping and I took large quantity of sleeping medication in order to finally get some sleep. Because of my previous office job, I was so stress that I couldn't even sleep, that I had to rely on sleeping medication to help me sleep. I think my body is starting to relying that sort of routine. So, when I didn't take any medication at all, I won't be able to sleep normally like other people could.

Today is my second day of work and Faizal is getting very impatient with me. He expects me to do things fast. I heard that Chefs have a very fury temper and they are the most impatient people in the F&B line. I notice one thing about chefs that bothers me until now: Chef are 90% smokers. The rest of the 10%, 5% = I don't know is it all the Chefs in Singapore smokes? 5% = I know Mr.W doesn't smoke. Don't get it? Never mind

Had runny nose and flu during my work that at the end of the day, my Manager ask me not to come for work tomorrow if I am still not feeling well. Don't worry. When I sneeze, I wasn't handling any food items. And luckily, I was in the back room. Learn to do float with Ah peng(She's a Malaysian, staying at Ipoh). During the 1st day, we talk about Malaysia. When I told her that I had a boyfriend who is half-Malaysian, she seems excited. I said half-Malaysian cos even though BaoBei was born in Malaysia, he is holding a pick colour IC. Just that his country of birth states: Malaysia. One of his documents states: The child is a Malaysian citizen at the time of birth. I was surprise when I saw BaoBei's documents cos I expect him to carry a blue IC instead(An indication of permanent resident). Ah Ping said that Ipoh is very near JB. I just nod cos I don't know Malaysia very well. She hit it off with me when knowing that I have been to Malaysia before and asked me how I find Malaysia and whether I had tried the food there?

Falling sick for 2 days le. Need to get a lot of rest. It didn't help that it was raining tonight when I had a very bad flu already! Ate a lot of medication but I didn't notice that I had taken overdose of the panadol!!! Oh no! I pray nothing will happen? I think I will end here for now. Will blog again some other time.

Wrong job????

Suppose to went for interview at Tanglin Mall yesterday but didn't go in the end cos one of the jobs that I interviewed for, called me up just in time to inform me to go for 2nd interview. During the interview, the person ask how soon can I start work? I replied Monday and immediately regret my own reply. Cos after that I kept thinking about the 5 day POD thingy in my head. Well, what's done cannot be undone. IT'S JUST TWO MORE WEEKS!!! I regret not waiting. Before that, I wasn't inform that I have to work from 9am - 7pm!!! 10 hours!!! I do not know if I could take it in the long run? Maybe by God's strength, I can?

Went to BB to visit someone. I was surprise to see that most of the roads was demolished! The more closer I got to the house, the more heavier my heart sank. I don't know why. But I was disappointed in the end that I never get to see that someone. Most of the family members are not at home and strangely, the main door and gate was left wide open. Somehow, I have a feeling that they are going to moved soon. I never get to see that person ever again. But...as long as that person is happy, even without me, my heart will be at ease.

Lorraine ask the CG to memorise the contents page but I didn't really memorize. Feeling very lost. Eric new ALL the contents page finally! He even memorize the New testaments backwards!!! WOW!!! Lorraine then kinda "shoot" those who are guilty of not memorizing the Bible. I imagined Bro.Khai scolding in my head,"Never read Bible! See lah! Si Gina!" I heard that the Bible has over 60 stories! Prayed for Jacqueline cos during the praise report, she mentions that her health is deteriorating and when she got back her health report, it wasn't a very good sign. Seriously speaking, I never read her blog anymore ever since after the stupid incident. But I don't know why, for some reason, when Lorraine ask all the sisters to pray for her, the moment my hand touched her, I mean, immediately right after my hands touch her, my tears began to flow. I sense a very strong sadness deep inside my heart. It's a feeling that I get only when I am really extremely sad about something. Jacqueline cried, I cried. Immediately after Lorraine finish praying for her, I quickly wipe my tears and act nothing was wrong.

Lorraine then preach about the word and she mentions a story whereby Satan causes a man's wife and child to die but the man didn't murmur, neither do he curse God(I think I will do that if I were the man!) I was like,"Huh? Got this story meh?" Lorraine then said,"Those of you who don't know the story, that goes to show you never read the Bible!" Then I was "Hehe"(cold laugh).

Spoke to Lorraine that from next week, I might not be able to come for cell group because of the work timing. She said that if I were to be placed on permenant make-up CG, I might as well transfer CG. Actually, I am sort-of half-prepared for it. But BaoBei is upset. Cos I told him that we might be seperated during CG and if this goes on for a long time, I might be transferred out. Meaning BaoBei and I will be in different CG. Then BaoBei complain to me and almost shout that he don't want a separate CG with me. Did I mention that we are inseperatable? That's the problem for clingy partners.

I think I will end here for now. Will blog again some other time.

BaoBei's words + Job '*Sob* :=~(

Went for job interview in the afternoon, but the original job that I was going to interviewed for, I felt very uncomfortable with the place plus, the store wasn't even opened! Strange...I thought I had spoken to the person-in-charge during the morning? I then went to a nearby cafe for interview. Seriously, half the time, I do not know what was the interviewer talking about cos she has a very heavy Indian accent along in her English! It is a 6 days work week. After I informed BaoBei about the job, he was objecting very fiercely. He said that he do not wish that we will become like one of his best friend's relationship.

On my way home, I spoke to BaoBei on the phone. He said something that makes me think through a lot of things. I told him that I feel very burden on our finances and that if I were to be selected for this 6 days work, he can find his own entertainment with his friends or go to services alone, while I work. He said that each time he went out with his friends, they spend quite a big amount on things. What he said was true, cos whenever we went out with his friends, they will either dine at very expensive restaurants, or those expensive cafes like "Billy Bombers"(The price there is super steep!!!) and went to T.C.C cafe to drink. Maybe for them, these amount seems nothing to them but for me, as I am a low-income earner, I feel very burden and stress whenever I go out with them. Do you know what did he said that makes me think a lot? He said this,"I don't mind being poor, to the extend that we both shared one piece of bread together. I rather to be poor and spend quality time with you, than to have you out there working almost 7 days a week, that we hardly have time for each other!" He also mentions that weekends is the only time we could see each other and if I were to work weekends too, to the extend that he can't sees me, he's afraid we might end up like one of his best friend - a breakup

I have mix feelings towards my own thoughts: Is money really that important?

A poem written for HuiYi..as requested(Part 2)

As autumn pass,
leaves falling down.
Till one fine day when all the leaves has dropped.

The season lifted and parted ways
for dear winter who has been lifted from her long beauty sleep
to shower her blessing of snow once more
on the beautifully coated snow capped moutain

A poem written for HuiYi..as requested

Missing you, missing your Love

Watching your back leaving from my sight,

I cried as I hear your foot steps fading away.

Thinking of the goods times we've shared,

the promises you gave to me seems so real.

You lifted me up with your love,

Giving me a feeling of Heaven on earth.

In your arms, I feel so secure.

With you, I feel so right.

Now that you leave me for another,

my heart shattered in a thousand pieces.

Never had I dream for our love to come to an end,

never had I expect you to leave without a word.

I will stand on my own.

Living a world without your love.

I will be waiting for your love,

to return to my side one day.

Esther's Birthday

Went for Esther's Birthday yesterday. I wasn't really very happy before meeting them cos they keep changing venues here and there and when they had changed the timing from 4pm to 7pm, NOBODY BOTHER TO AT LEAST SMS ME TO UPDATE ME!!! End up BaoBei was quite unhappy about it. Esther claim that she had SMS me to update me but somehow I didn't receive the updated SMS! I thought someone was suppose to know the programs ahead and to check it out beforehand whether a place has the outlet or not?! Or was it a last minute thingy?!

Went to Bugis to meet them in the end and saw their teacher. Strange...They claim that the teacher was their ITE teacher? How come is it then that BaoBei has seen her before? BaoBei then mention about sylvia's wedding that he saw the woman once. I can't seems to remember her at all but their teacher remembers me. Walk around with them and when they went to take photo shoot, I plead BaoBei to take a picture with me but he declined. He only took it with me when I offer to pay for the photo shoot -_-". I prefer to take card photos than sticker type cos I will lose the sticker photos easily. But the advantage is that the sticker type can be cut into many pieces for easier distribution. Just that the photo itself will be much smaller. The photo shoot was very fast! Baobei and me had to swap our place within like...3 seconds? But I was glad that most of the pictures turn out well despite our "Kan chiongness" I finally saw how I smiled like naturally! Cos usually in pictures, I don't smile very well. Choose two pictures and we both kept different styles of our pictures. Humph! If I were to know that we could print both the same pictures, I would only choose ONE style instead of two!

Went to Sakae Sushi for dinner and I ate quite a lot of sushi. I think I gave Lynn a scare! Haha! She was looking at me and BaoBei when we took the foods. Haha! Sorry Lynn, both of us are quite big eaters :P so don't be shock to see us taking so many sushi's. Dare not try the red plates cos BaoBei says that the red plates cost $4 per plate. Although they are some that I would like to try. But in the end I was relieved that I didn't take cos we had 36 coloured plates and 2 red plates plus 3 char-ra-mu-shi?(don't know how to pronounce) and end up the bill came to $90++ after 20% discount. Jia Xing came quite late and when she gave Esther a birthday present by someone(only Esther, BaoBei and I know who) Esther's face changed a bit.

Ate the ice-cream cholocate cakes but left 2 big pieces cos we couldn't finish it. Took pictures with Esther before cutting the cake. We bid Jia Xing goodbye and went for a walk. I was feeling very sleepy while BaoBei has to book in early to camp. We too, bid Esther goodbye and went off. Had a wonderful day in the end.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ESTHER! Hope that you'll stay cheerful always and also wish that you'll find your true love one day. You will okay! When the time comes....will end here for now. Blog again some other time.

New handphone + owe BaoBei

Went to Toa Payoh with BaoBei to see handphone. Went around a lot of shops and most of them sell the exact same price. Finally settle at the very first Starhub shop that we saw at the first place. Bought the plan at $50+ per month. Expensive wor! In the end, it is less than my $400 budget and less $100 for BaoBei's budget! Yeh! Thank God! :Þ

Went to eat Sushi buffet, and I regret ordering the buffet set as we ate very little. Waste money! Went to walk around a little and went back home. Nowadays BaoBei knows what to threaten me with...I know, I still owe him a N73 hand phone lah....changed my contract and number too. Gave only to my close friends and CGMs. Haiz...if only I didn't lose the handphone that BaoBei lent it to me :(

Left little money for me to survive for this month. Need to look for a new job soon. I pray that I will look for a 5-day F&B job soon. I think I will end here for now. Will blog again some other time.

YEAH!!! I AM FINALLY FREE!!!!

YES!!! I am finally free!!!! Self declared freedom actually, I finally leave the job!!!!! But now I have to face 2 problems:
1) How am I going to survive with my remaining money?
2) How am I going to find another job?

The other time at CGM, HuiYi prayed for me. Now I understand why my prayer request wasn't answer by God! Humph! The way HuiYi prayed was gentle but with faith. While the way I prayed was "rough"but without much faith. Then just today morning, Derek SMS me to say that actually Boss had expected it. HuiYi prayed for my Boss to be lenient towards my resignation. He actually did!!! Miracle!!! Base on my Boss temperamental sort, I was surprise he was actually very calm about my leaving! Hahaha! Praise God! Thanks for your prayers HuiYi! *muack!* She also pray that I would get into a 5 day F&B job that I liked. I believe in faith that it will come to pass soon too :)

Went out with BaoBei to East Coast to cycle. It has been a long time since I last cycled. Stamina very low . Only to tire myself out in the end. Went to meet his Sargent to have dinner. BaoBei spend quite a lot today!!! I told him that I could no longer pay for everything as I have not got a job yet. He doesn't seems to understand.

I will end here for now. Will have to start looking for another job...
