♥ ZZZ ...
woke up ard 910am this morning cos my pa took half day leave. he was complaining to my ma at 840 on why i haven wake up lah. den ate breakfast and was writing some stuff when qg called. i tot it was jiaying lah, cos the background was kinda quiet, cant be ety mah. i tok-ed in my sian sian tone lah, and he tot i still sleeping which was 'NO NO', i'm 100% awake. so went to work at 5, and it was so boring lor. saw hy too cos she sort of juz got off from work (: gg to work is so scary nowadays lor, it's like when u touch e cash register, u've gotta make sure that u didn lose any $$ at e end of the day. feel so STRESS lah.. my orders for drinks all went wrong, den ev'tym will kana scared by auntie cos she either make extra drinks or wrong drinks. i also made lotsa mistakes lah. got 1 foreigner, she wanted to buy carrot mix orange. i couldn catch the word "orange" so i went "huh" all e way. so in e end after i know, auntie decided to do it. duno whether it's called forgetful lah, though that's wad auntie claimed. ): i'm hurt. den she kept "accusing" me that we lost $30+ last week when i didn even work tat WHOLE week. look who's calling "forgetful" lah.. she cant possibly juz say "u lost $$ that day arh" when who knows, she might be the one who also lose money lor. juz cos of that incident doesn mean i must be the one who loses $$ all the way lah. i've gotta do inside the fruits shop cos auntie cant possibly really do all by herself duh, still need to help take orders for drinks at ETY when the kind cashier wld tell the customers that "smone will take ur order for drinks inside". and if i'm free, i've gotta help to clear up too. but i'm happy, cos the bowls veh clean (: but feel really bad ytd, frustrated. oh yes. i think i saw eugene bah. he is cos he was asking me "why u working here?" i'm surprised he recognise me (: well. smone called me "jo-anne" again. i should had ignored! haiz.. joanna is such a nice name (: patrick loves that name lah. (juz jk) but he kept on "jo-an-na"-ing all e way! haha.. kinda strange feeling but i'm honoured (: den the worst thing happened! was gg to punch card to go home lah, den i realised my "out" alrd punch le! i forgot to press "in" when i went to work! reminds me of wad happened to chai tse. so told qg lah, and he said tmr den he do. sian. how can i be so absent minded? ):

♥ whee~
stayed home whole week, did school hmwk too (:
i'm so tired! came back from work not long ago. it was quite tiring and boring too ): uncle (chef) cooked for hanhui and me lunch! initially asked him and he kept on saying he didn noe how to cook fried rice and all those crap. den we asked another chef lah, he agreed but didn cooked cos he busy cooking for customers. uncle's fried rice is veh unique (: but i still prefer RaS's mama's fried rice~ yum yum, just ate finish (: oh yes. juz nw patrick was "scolding" hh and me cos we give customers too much rice.
cos give too much rice = customers waste it/cannot finish = throw away = waste $$ = count stock = workers cant eat that much = no mood to work = show attitude to customers = complain to boss = workers/we fired. thus, we must save rice.
so he taught us to scoop with lesser rice yet look nice on e bowl.. haha, initially found it quite difficult, but PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. hahha~ den many many customers ordered for more rice lor! i think 1 person can order up to 3 bowls more, = $1.50 more lor. wah, customers kept asking me "jia fan" den kept on giving $$ to kpo auntie. quite satisfied lar~ can earn more $$ (: sianz. it's like, can hardly work lor. cos of those 2 full timers! wth. cant qg hire them next yr or wad? ): but! thankfully he still rmbs us (: he got split personality as usual.
had nursery duty thisevening morning, annabelle came duh~ she looks like a princess (: and for hell sake. i duno why those kids kept sayang-ing beating me lor! annabelle hit me lor! cos i tickled her (: den when i kajiao LUKE, he also beat me ): den keone also beat me! )': so sad! cos annabelle was still beating me while i tickled her, and keone saw this and he also beat me for no reason lor. hope the next duty that is 8 JAN 2006 in e morning at SIS, no one will hit me lah (:

den i saw the glass panel juz below the ETY banner being decorated. tot it was them lar, but it turned out to be that sickening q-g lar.
i doubt can see the banner cos of the lighting. but see that hat on that smile? there's some dots to represent snow lar. ya, q-g did it lar. not bad. *reluctantly agrees*

we learnt how to speed read/read at abt up to 800+ words per min, which is incredibly good (:
do mindmaps, the PACOOK way.
memorise it in a more creative way/linking the words up to form story.
i think that's all? but it took lotsa time to understand them.
played games here and there, such as we had to revive any coaches/asst. coaches if they died in order for us to earn points. i think overall, out of 16 groups, we came in the 3rd tonight! on e 2nd day was the 7th position. i think on e 3rd day was 9th or wad, mixed up! the last day was the 3rd! BIG improvement leh..
