Updates!

Hello everyone!
Sorry for being too carried away with my activities during this hols. Although i have a whole lot of time to blog, i chose to prioritize other things first. haha.
Firstly, i had my first ever job at Suntec Convention Centre during the Bookfest 2007 event. Being inexperienced in this working world, i had applied the job thru Kelly Services, which is totally unneccessary. So that means 20% of my pay gone to them. hai.. nvm. Other than that, it was a beneficial experience as a Popular staff. For ur info, it was only a 2 weeks stint. The first 3days was quite tiring cos we need to arrange the products and do the stocking. Since the opening of the event, my job was such a breeze.. really! We were supposed to stand around and wait to ans any customer's queries. I was in charge of the multimedia department and since many companies such as Samsung, Philips, Brothers, Creative etc came down to set up their own booth to sell their products, the customers can go directly to the respective promoters to inquire. Thus we were just stoning one corner, watching free movies from their latest LCD screens. haha! nice.

Of cos there were some irritating customers who will come up to us and complain about the prices. Another type is the bitchy ones. haha. and surprisingly, im not referring to aunties or ladies, but a small boy! hahaha. I wont elaborate it any further cos it will be a very long story.

Anw, I made alot of friends, and unsurprisingly, they are mostly younger than me cos they are waiting for their O's results. I feel so old, man. However, it did help abit cos many thought i was 16 cos i didnt look like 18. haha! nice one.

Experience-wise, i did almost every job available during the event, except for cashier. I did the stocking, packing and unpacking, arranging, pushing cartons, answering queries, assistant cashier(the one who will pack the customer's products) and collecting pellets. So in other words, im an effective worker! ehem2.
Oh ya! not forgetting.. guessed what is the record i've seen a customer spent at a single payment? S$6,800 man! freakin crazy. i tell u what he bought.. hundreds of PSP games! Business i guess. But still.. it is crazy.
me and segaff. Getting ready for work!
Fuhh! centre of attention.
My Multimedia Department Colleagues. (Me and Fadhilah are the eldest here.. mcm abang2 lah aku. haha)
The Multimedia guys with 2 Philips promoters at the right.

Last but not least, Taufik was there too! Wasted his fans are not enough to bring the house down.
Since the end of this work stint, i've been quite hardworking going for fitness trainings. haha. More and more soccer and swimming. Gym not yet lah dey. Really soon. i've been going for swimming 3 days in a row now. Technique-wise, im so much better now. Fitness-wise.. erm.. still can be improved. haha. I felt i was in my top form after such a long time in soccer last tuesday. I think i played significantly better in futsal compared to street soccer. Field match will be the best though. Therefore i conclude sumthin: The bigger the playing area, the better i play. More friendly matches please!
Anw, i wonder how my friends are doing in NS right now for those who are enlisted in dec. Im sure they are having a whole lot of fun there. haha. but seriously.. NS will be fun if u look at the positive side. Live Firing, BMT-ing, learning the arts of war and strategic defence and attack. Everything seems so exciting with the whole new experience. But one thing for sure.. i can't wait to see those who i can't imagine being botak, botak for once. haha.
N0t to forget, A level results is nearing. If im nt wrong, it will be released in the early of feb. Im excited but nervous in the same time. I've a fair share of good and bad dreams about it and im nt sure which one to believe in. Please let this be good.
