wheeheehee ladies night!

Kboxing with girls is always so much fun! Love it. Kboxing with my powerpuff girls are damn hilarious and dramatic. Thursday's kbox session with my rabbits was absolutely fanstastic as well. hohohohoho
I love how we can just sing and go out of tune and still laugh about it... I love the way we do silly actions and not feel toooo paiseh. (Stacy and Jess.... do along with us next time lah! hehehehehehhee) I love the fact that we enjoyed singing oldies and stupid songs like "Calcutta". I love the way everybody sang along to songs by boybands and shouting along with SpiceGirls' "Spice Up Your Life" ... and also love bitching about Britney as we sang her songs! I love the fact that we are still meeting up and having fun. Love you all ladies!
Heee. Nice smile there Piggy! Wheee Weet! Anyway, happy belated birthday dearest!!! Wasn't the cake so chocolately yummy? hahaha Hope you had fun!

Oh yeah, Ber and I came from a G2000 factory outlet sale before meeting the rest for KBox. Cheap cheap leh!!! =) Do we look like potential successful business women??? wahahahaha

itchy itchy scratchy scratchy

~wheee heee!!! back back! Let the pictures speak for themselves! = )

Took a train from JB to this place called Dabong in Kelantan, Msia.
11-12 hours ride sia! At least we had beds to sleep on. Or rather... to lie on.
It was a bit too noisy and shaky to have a good sleep!

And some idiots actually smoke in the carriage. IDIOTS.
So after we reached Dabong.. we had breakfast. And then went caving with the guides. Dun have pictures to share with ya coz it was too dark to take photos. Were told not to use our flash incase we disturb the bats or watever. haha

After caving, we had lunch... and then BAH! We set off for our hike to the base camp. GOSH. One of my most tiring hike ever. 2 hours UPHILL, carrying our super heavy trekking bag which was filled with water, mess tins, food, clothes, blah blah blah. It's like climbing stairs (what's steeper than stairs huh....) for 2 hours, with minimal rest.

Occasionally we would cross rivers and climb over stones etc. Passed a waterfall on the way, so we happily took photos =)


Yeahhh. Finally reached the base camp. We were all shagged! But gotta pitch our tents still, if not gotta sleep in the open...
One of the highlights of the trip.

Had a waterfall just beside our base camp. And we can actually slide down!!! Was pretty steep! Can't really see from this picture, but it was scary!!! And kinda hurt my butt a bit. But nevertheless still super fun. Should show ya all the video if got chance next time. Heh!


After playing in the waterfall, we had to prepare dinner. People brought up chicken (which had long thawed already, having endured the train ride, the hike up...), can food blah blah blah.
Kinda had a mini feast. hahaha

For dinner, we had pasta with hotdogs, mushrooms and campbell sauce. Had chicken soup, pineapple rice. We even had desserts. Placed our cans of longans and nata de coco in the waterfall so that we would have nice cold desserts.

For breakfast, we had hotdogs, pancakes,nice warm milo, (super-squashed) bread with tuna...

No wonder the bags weighed a ton.

After breakfast, off we go in search for more waterfalls to play.
Climbed up slopes, jumped over rocks... Lose my footing and I'll be swept down the river, or just roll downhill and then 'kong kah kiao'. LOL. What an adventure!

This waterfall doesn't really look magestic or gigantic from here, but the pressure was so powerful!!! If we moved towards the center, we kinda need lots of energy to stand straight up! Good way to massage our aching bodies.

So after playing in the waterfalls in the morning and lunch... we had to descend down the mountain. BLEAH. Horrible. Ground was slippery. Wasn't wearing proper shoes/sandals. Practically every few steps I almost slipped, until i found a strong thick branch to use for support. hohoho. Glad I made it back safe and sound, no broken bones or whatever. Just came back with super aching legs, a sore butt and itchy bites... LOL

So in all, I enjoyed Stong! The waterfalls and the magnificent scenery made the long journey and tiring trek worth it. = ) So who likes such nature adventures and are interested to go to such places, Go!! And remember to jio me k!!!

Now I feel that Bukit Timah is peanuts. LOL. Time to go for some exercise manz! Aiya, why Singapore dun have such thing... boring! If not I dun mind trekking 2 hours uphill every ... erm.. 2 weeks? LOL

= )

wheee!!!

Setting off tml! A bit excited! My bro was like advising me how to pack my bag and the DOs and Dont's. Nice to have someone experienced at home. = ) Honestly, I think my bro can be quite attractive. wahahahhahahaha. (i hope he doesn't read this)

Anyway ... my telemarketing job was so horrible!!! Ber and Sheena would nod in agreement. It was so darn boring. argh. So so so glad I finished my 3 1/2 days at Access Direct. Two of them have another week i think, provided they don't zhao halfway again. LOL. The last day was the most endurable day I had... coz the thought of not doing this EVER again motivated me ALOT. I left the office smiling like some little girl who got her favourite toy. SO HAPPY!!!

So... I shall not do flyer distribution and telemarketing ever again. Only unless the pay is SUPER good AND the hours are really short. BAH!!! (if not, you all must dissuade me no matter wat k!)

I've eaten sOooOOoo much lately!!! Just last night i ate like... almost from 8+ continuously until 12 plus. Met up with the powerpuff ladies and Stan. Dinner at BigO was .... alrighty. Quoting from Ms An Li "It hardly tickles my stomach can!" LOL. So after dinner we popped over to NYDC for dessert. Sat for a long time, discussing our holiday plans... and then we decided that we should head back home. Then in Stan's car, we passed by this huge durian model and suddenly they wanted to eat durians in Geylang. After some discussion we decided to eat tow huay instead. Can you believe it... we ordered xiao long bao + tow huay + shaobing despite the fact that we barely even digested our dinner and dessert! Gosh.

Oh and Stan took us on a short tour along the 'darker' (or rather... 'redder') side of Geylang. Gulpz. Felt kinda uneasy... The ladies were just standing by the road and waiting for customers... Darn. Should have made Stan walk down the road by himself while we observe from behind. LOL

Hmm. After Stong, i shall go swimming, badminton, and hopefully motivated enough to go for a run. Bleah! Hey, who's interested in a game of paintball on 22nd or 27th! Get back to me asap!!!

MY GOD!!!

Loads of things to blog about!

1) AFRICAN CUSTOMER
2) Yesterday's ethics thingy
3) My PeeWee dream and PeeWee Saga
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Firstly... in light of the poor sales, me and another guy decided to do some promotional gimmick. Lo and behold, woalA! My sales doubled. hahaha. ok lah, from 3 to 6. But still not bad lah! Lol!

Anyway so about my african customer and his fren.. They came to the booth... so i blah blah blah about my DCP-330C. Demo this demo that... with casual talk here and there. So ok lah, managed to convince him to buy that set. Then when he found out my name, he laughed with his fellow fren... Maybe they have a fren who's called Josephine also lah, coz they got pretty excited. Then praised me here and there, like "!" ... "your name makes him happy" (the customer said this, pointing to his fren)... blah blah blah. So of course I paiseh lah! But just pretend pretend "oh thank you hahaha." Then after that the african customer got his fren to take a photo of me, him, and the DCP 330. LOL.

But he's a kns piece of shit! Ask me do this do that. "I buy this becoz of your sweet mouth!" "You teach me this teach me that so i buy from you! If not i buy a fax!". Actually the Carrefour pple supposed to deal with the delivery stuff, but he requested me to do lor! Everything that wasn't within my job scope. Run up run down...wait here wait there. Bloody hell. I could have rejected but I guess i didn't know how... darn! I will learn to say NO next time!

So anyway, the stupid cashier didn't know how to key in... had to wait super long! Luckily the African customer wasn't really pissed. But he was like ... either teasing me... or flirting with me... in front of the cashier? KAOz... Asked me loads of questions. 'How old are you?" "Can you visit me? You want to come to my house? my office?" [my god!!! dunno how to respond, so i act blur lor... ] Can't remember exactly what I said... but the digusting pervertic look in his eyes scares me. GULPZ. "We can be friends..." He also asked for my number sia... of course i wasn't stupid enough to give him. "huh! ehh... cannot lah. ermm.. i shy!" And I think he knows that I'm acting blur. "You know what I mean...." So with vigorous hand movements, my only response was "uuhhhhhhhhh. errrr.... no no no.. i dunno. uh.....cannot cannot... er... i have work!" bleaAH!

His fren was funnier and less scary. But that guy laughed at me and said I'm very African... I speak like African, has a African attitude... not like Chinese. bleah. What is TAT supposed to mean?

Anyway Carrefour has poor organization. So ..... PISSIFYING! Well, luckily it's over. At least I dun have to go down anymore =)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So... the thing I was proud of... This doctor from Sri Lanka wanted to get a printer. He was about to make payment when he suddenly said "the warranty is inside right?" oh shoots. So at that point, I had to decide whether to simply answer him or tell him more...

I'm glad that I made the right decision in the end. "Yes the warranty is inside. Ermmm but Sir, this warranty isn't international... ... ..." Then I told him to walk around first and think whether to take the risk (coz he intended to bring the printer back to Sri Lanka!) So he went off! But I was relieved that I told him anyway. Can't live with the guilt! haha. Good news was, he came back and bought the printer from me = )
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ya know what... this entry is getting a bit long and naggy. So I shall blogged about PeeWee and my dream another time! lol !

Egg is broken!!!

Yay! Finally. Sold 3 today! Not many, but at least it's not 0 sales!

So scary. On my way home just now, met a psycho guy at the overhead bridge. He was sitting down somewhere along the stairs. Halfway walking across the bridge, suddenly i heard very loud footsteps behind me... i kena shocked! Turned around and see the guy very near me! And he looked... like got a bit of mental problem. SCARY! He wasn't doing anything, except walking very closely behind me... and holding an umbrella in his hand... raised. KAOzzz. So I tried walking a bit faster (coz i tot maybe it's silly to run. gee. and scarly he use his umbrella to hit me how!) Then i decided not to walk the VJ side... a bit dark. "Seeked shelter" at the bus stop outside my house. Wah liew! He stopped at the bus stop too! So i peeped at him lo. Or rather, observed... He was still behaving like a psycho. Held out his umbrella and dunno doing wat lah. Talking to himself?

Then after 1-2 mins i decided to go home. Anything i will scream for the guard. LOL. Luckily he didn't follow sia. Maybe i was a bit too sensitive. A stalker won't walk so openly and noisily right! But nevertheless, still pretty darn scary!!! I never knew "being followed/tailed" felt like that. hohohohoho Hope no nightmares tonighT!

Oh and I did something which I am proud of today! Regarding some moral ethics issue. LOL. But too sleepy to talk bout it! Someother day perhaps! YAwn!

Zha-pa-lang!

Good news and bad news!!!

Shall rant bout the bad ones first.

First day at work... promoting Brother again, for Carrefour at Plaza Sing. So a few phrases to sum the entire day. "REALLY BAD. bad beyond belief. incredibly bad!!! digustingly bad! BAD!!!" To think that I was the only promoter. No need snatch customers from other fellow promoters... got a cupboard full of free gifts AT MY DISPOAL to attract customers.. but flash free gifts at them they also not interested sia. kaoz.

Let's just say... heng i got basic pay. If not ah, the max i might get for today will be like.. $3? Fine. I practically sold zero. none. egg! Was even contemplating to work OT w/o pay k! Just to break the egg. In the end I stayed for additional 1/2 hr. Still nth then i left. THEN! after i left, there were 2 customers, But there wasn't any other printer-promoters. But other fren was selling p-touch labellers. So... in the end i dunno if that 2 transactions are considered my sales. LOL. Tml better be better. Dunno wat to expect manz, somemore tml got another promoter selling with me..

I don't think my skills are DAT bad lor! correct correct! Today is the first day only, and most pple won't buy on the first day. The promotion until end of next week somemore.. gee. nehmind. gambate sia!

ok enuf of ranting. now good news!!!

Met a customer from the PC show! I recognised him and so did he! Who ever remembers how a sales promoter looks like? (unless he/she is damn gorgeous, but i doubt i fit into this category lah! hahaha) ANYWAY, so we started talking for awhile. And he seemed like very happy to see me lah (he's not a young man, but neither is he a chee ko pek k!)... and then he was like "good good... you will do well!" Wah i tell u k, that was a simple short msg but it made my day k! totally. SMILES. I always love the feeling of being appreciated. WHEEEEEEEEE!!!! So pple, praise your promoter if he/she does well!!! = ) lalalalala. Would have jumped to the moon if he had bought another printer to support me. LOL.

2nd news... results are out! And I did well! = ) I love Ram. Best tutor I've met so far. Overall Im pretty satisfied. Just have a teeny winny slight disappointment with Malay! A-! haha K bet some of u are like.. "wth! complain wat shit.". But was hoping for a nice A lah! Afterall the paper was pretty easy... so naturally expectations were a bit higher. NEH MIND! HAPPY anyway! Who cares I got a C for Econs in Alevels! I don't anymore! So why should i care if i din get an A or watever for any subj now! haha

3rd! I dun have to look for jobs, but jobs are knocking on the door! Thank goodness I took up this brother job. Opened more doors for me = ) Joanne from AD called me up, offering another job!But good and bad lah! hahhaha it was kinda hard to say no when she's like... "please please... blah blah.. 'cream of the crop' tactic blah blah ... " So in the end I'm doing it for a few days...

4th! May have a chance to be a permanent Brother promoter! maybe lah. see how again = ) Must get more details before i anyhow announce.

k k . Wish me good sales tml k! Anybody near PS look for JO! = )

Sales!

Yay! Pictures!
my fellow brothers promoting for Courts!

an li and me!

"Best sales attitude" for the day - Jo and bEr! LOL
Our mummys are delighted with the NTUC vouchers we won!

hmmm.. funny. I never really considered doing sales. Let alone promoting this kinda IT gadgets. Lol! But I'm glad I went for it anyway. hehehehe. At least I know a lot about printers now!

Got called up by Access Direct (the company that recruited us as Brother promoters) yesterday... so I'm promoting Brother again! hahaha Just 3 days for some road show at Plaza Sing. I'm doing it since I'm already sort of equipped with the knowledge, and I'm free anyway. So I dun mind the extra $$$ = ) I still haven't done my GSS shopping!


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After 4 days of promoting, I have a message to all consumers :

Don't say "I'll be back" if u really won't come back! If not u will give false hopes to the promoter! I didn't want to go for my lunch break or go to the toilet coz I scared my customer come back and I'm not there! wahahhahaha

But if u do come back to buy Good X, it'll be really nice if you go back to the same promoter to buy from him/her! So that u don't waste his/her saliva (and effort of course!) haha

Don't keep asking for additional freebies! LOL. Especially if Good X is already super cheap!

Don't smoke before buying Good X! Or at least get some breath freshener!

ehhh... Last but not least... do try sales if u have the chance! hahaha Not too bad actually... Tiring but rewarding!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

heh! I went swimming on Tues morning and today! I feel fit. and BLACK. Lol! Swimming with Ber today was nice as usual. And we went for a nice Jap meal near the Tampines pool! yay!

I love this holidays! = )

Brother to Brother! Stand Right Up!

Wheeheeheee. The hectic 4 day PC show is fiiiiiiiiiinally over! Shag manz! Never stood so long before. before... and can also say i never pia so hard before too! Just for the sake of hoping that my customers would come back after saying "k, I'll be back" .... I kept 'pie-ing my niao' and delaying my meals. Madness. Was so busy until I kinda accidentally skipped 2 lunch out of the 4 days.

Looking back... though some customers were freakin !@#!@#~, overall... I would say that I enjoyed my time at the Courts booth. Physically demanding... and torturing. Having to endure the blasting speakers from all corners, promoting non-stop from 12 to 9 until your saliva drys up and your throat hurts. running here and there to pull customers in from the "people mountain people sea crowd". But at the end of everything, u just can't stop smiling after u successfully managed to persuade the customer to buy the printer. Feels like an achievement~ = ) Surprisingly I can yak quite a bit bout printers to the customers. hohohohoho. Yay, nex time I can look for printers without the help of my brother (as in ge ge) liao! HEE

It's 3.15 am! yawnz! Yay, finally dun have to wake up early and rush to suntec! Shall sleep until the sun shines onto my backside.

My last words before I hit the bed (someone enlighten me. if u say "hit the books" to mean study, can say "hit the bed" to mean sleep? lol!)... Brother people are really nice! Took good care of our welfare! Kinda make me respect Brother quite a bit. To think that I didn't even know Brother was a printer brand. They gave lots of incentives to us too! hahaha I received 100 over dollars worth of NTUC vouchers sia! wahahahhaha! Can't wait for payday! But I wonder who and how they are going to calculate our commision manz. So many invoice booklets and also how to read the disgusting n illegible handwritings?!? Good luck! Nighty!

And dearest XiaoWen and Stanley, thank you very very much for being such goooooood friends! They came to the fair twice... and waited for me and anli to knock off before going for supper together! Still got free transport home... such nice frens hor! Must be the ngee ann blood. hahaha. *Loves loves* "We are the pupils of ngee ann primary..." (too bad for you anli... u sing "i am a pupil of ngee ann secondary" lorz! Lol )

Pictures next post k! Heh. ZzzzZZzzz
