Originally, i was supposed to go to a barbecue at Kensington Park and work at 6am. However, Karen auntie changed shift with me. In the end, i worked at the afternoon. I thought what will get worse. I was supposed to work at 4pm. Then ZY called me, telling that he changed shift with me. So i worked at 3.30pm and he worked at 4pm. I can't play my computer for the 6 hours. When i reached there, i wanted to check price but Eric called me in to get money. When i checked which counter i opened, i realized i was opening COUNTER 5. You didn't see wrongly. Counter 5 take charge of the carpark coupon and the newspaper. I am fortunate i worked in the afternoon as there is only 2 types of newspaper. In the morning, there is more than 2 types of paper. Phew~ I accidentally tore down the door of a cupboard. It was faulty and it even slant to it's side. Of course there were customer bought carpark coupons.But most of the time, i am the runner. Why do i say that? I was running errands for the auntie like forwarding and getting stuffs. Practically, i find it acceptable though i was totally clueless in the first place. I know it's a bit late. I got in my first choice which Molecular Biotechnology at Nanyang Polytechnic. I guess it would be a restart button for me as i have to know everyone all over again.

I went to catch a movie with my friends who worked in the NTUC as me. We watched the movie titled " Bride War". I felt that it was a good movie. It was funny and I really enjoyed it. The starting was nice. It was about 2 close friends who were getting married on the same day because of a mistake. Originally, both wanted to get married on the different day. One of them works as a lawyer and the other one as a teacher in secondary school. After the mistake, they discussed and agreed that one of them should host the marriage at the same day. Both didn't give in and trouble starts brewing. They even tried to sabotage each other's wedding. Still in the end, the teacher didn't get marry. The lawyer got married. Both of them patched up. After a year, the teacher got married with the lawyer's brother and both got pregnant. The best part is that both of are going to give birth on the same day. Originally, we are supposed to watch 4.30pm show but there isn't much seat which means the 6 of us have to separate. So we waited for the 6.50pm show. While waiting, we did some window shopping and had our dinner at MacDonald. I was feeling a bit low. This is because i don't know when can we have a outing with them again like this. Seriously speaking, this is the first time i going out with friends like cataching a movie or window shopping. Usually, i go out alone. I was not on good terms with my classmate or they look down on me so they left me out. I really enjoyed today's outing.

Came back from Malaysia. I almost got my hand toasted while lighting up the long chain of fire cracker. I think i was kind of retarded at that point of time. During the period of time in Malaysia, i got back my original skin color which is very tanned. I cycled as that would be the transport i usually use. My relative are too busy to bring me around so i travel by my own bike. I went to cybercafe which is like 3 mintues ride. I played with my friend at the cyber cafe like Red Alert 2, Left 4 Dead, Counter Strike and Dota. I only went there like around 4 days only. Though it was short, it was still enjoyable. Oh well, have to treasure every moment you have.

I was working at 7 am today. I reached my workplace at 6.38am. Gladdys was working in the moring. She was supposed to work in the afternoon but she changed shift with Li He who thinks that she may not be able to wake up. I was at counter 6 and i thought i could slack at counter 6 like before. However, there is a slight problem. All the five register inside the NTUC was not working and the customers had to pay at 2 register which is outside. Practically, the inside looks empty. Gladdys took the most customers as she operated at conter 7 which is just right outside the NTUC while mine still need a short distance. I asked some of the customers to come over to my register and pay. Her counter had some customers rushing her. I feel the customers are inconsiderate. If she give the wrong change, who is the person responsible for it? It will be Gladdys unless the customer will take care of the wrong change, i think Gladdys will clear the queue very fast. Mine was rather ok. In the end, we had to stand at the front line for 2 freaking hours. The main reason the 5 register were not working is they are all short circuit except for the 2 register outside. In the morning, i discovered the NETs machine for 4 counter was not working. I notified the supervisor and i went to opened my counter. 5 minutes later, i saw one of the auntie came out and said she helped me to pack. I asked her why and she replied the 5 counters inside is experiencing technical problem. For moment, it working fine. THEN GOT PROBLEM. After the 2 hours, i was in a shock. After a while, i was alright. First time in my life, i do things this fast before. It was like fast motion cartoon. Because of the rush, i short 4.55 cents. Damm tired. stop here for now == Zzz

Today was VERY SUCKY. Everything was alright. One customer i gave him 2 5 cents and he don't want it. He wanted the 10 cents coin. It slightly got on my nerves and later, i felt alright. Right after this customer, another customer claimed that he queued first in the line WHEN I CAN'T EVEN SEE THE ******* LINE. I served the other customer and then served him. I was very irriated already. I made a major mistake earlier on. This particular customer bought 2 carton of marigold drinks. I accidentally scanned the smaller pack in the carton. The actual price was supposed to be 6.70 bucks but i scanned in 1.90 bucks. I asked the customer to wait as i called the supervisor. The supervisor was held up by some matters. He was kind of impatient and took off the goods. After he left, the supervisor came and i asked him to void the sales. So now, he took the goods unpaid. He said he will come back to pay the actual amount. In the end, he didn't turn up. At that point of time, i really felt that i am a ******* B******. I was really stupid to go trust that guy. Then i holded a transaction which the customer claimed to pay later, the worst part is that i lost the stupid receipt. I was very frustrated after all these crap. Buch of A******, F****** RETARDED CUSTOMER WHO CHEAT PEOPLE'S TRUST. I was very disappointed in myself. Surendar and other promoter was there as well. Then Gladdys, Wen Hui and Jin Xiang came back to NTUC around 10 plus. I was cold towards them and i am really sorry about that. I had no mood to joke with them. SORRY GUYS >< In the end, i had excess 8 bucks because of the sales void. I told Adin. If i have to compesate, it will 13.40 bucks. Sigh~ I really hated this day.

After knowing that i am going to work all the way till 24 Jan 2009, i felt tired and exhausted. In terms of mentally, i felt tired. It was alright as it was evened out like i work on alternate shifts. I was feeling sad when i know my friends working in NTUC are going to leave soon. Wen Hui applied for JC. Most of us working in the NTUC applied for Polytechnic and so, we are working till the school term starts. I was hoping to work on weekend to earn a bit of money. Wen Hui is going to stop working at 25 Jan 2009 i think. Unfortunately, i am oversea with my mother. Wrong timing... Work was like weight lifting session. Most of the customers bought drinks. I had long queue most of the time. I slacked 5 minutes later customer come. I decided not to slack as I ONLY GET TO SLACK FOR LIKE 5 MINUTES OR MORE. I think that i can get some exercises from work. The drinks can act as weights. I got Zi Qi's float. Her float was alright except for the 5 cents. It had lots of 5 cents. I accidentally dropped a 20 cent coin in the gap between the desk and the wall. I told Adin the only supervisor at 6am. He managed to get it out. I checked the cashier book and found out that i working at counter 6. I am also the first cashier to reach NTUC this morning. I sat at the counter and i was going to fall asleep. I really felt sad that Wen Hui is leaving. She may drop by and buy things and then i charge special service charges. MUHAHAHA I not so bad. Anyway, i worked at counter 6 2 times in a row. I should be working inside tomorrow as i am working in the afternoon which is less tiring as compared to morning. I wish my friend Wen Hui all the best for her studies. I also heard that one more cashier is leaving and i am still looking answer for that. All good thing coming to an end soon.. Anyway, i found this video on youtube and i thought i can share with my friends~

Just submitted my application for polytechnic courses. I had a mixed feeling when i am filling up the application form. Just in case anyone is curious.... These are the courses i appiled for:

-Molecular Biotechnology
-Molecular Biotechnology
-Biomedical Engineering
-Pharmaceutical Science
-Biologic &Process Technology
-Nanotechnology & Material Science
-Chemical & Green Technology
-Hospitality & Resort Management
-Aerospace System
-Manufacturing Engineering
-Digital & Precision Engineering
-Telematics & Media

I applied either for Nanyang Polytechnic or Ngee Ann Polytechnic since there is a straight bus to these two polytechnic. I am kind of lazy to go polytechnic located places like DOVER. I am very interested in Science so the first 2 course is a must get in course for me. Now, let's shift the focus on today's work. Work was fine though ending can be scary. I was at counter 3 and before i take over, Wen Hui was taking it. Counter 6 was taken by Li He and Gladdys. There is lots of customer giving me 50 bucks to change. I was cursing them. Within one hour, my 2 bundles of 10 bucks was gone. I went to the office to change for another 2 bundle thinking that customer will give me 50 bucks to change. It did not happen. After i changed, the customer gave me 10 bucks to change. Life is so unpredictable... I took Li He's float today and it short of 1 bucks. Her float is great as it had a packet of 40 bucks worth of one bucks coins. Next time PLEASE DON'T OPEN THE COINS. Tomorrow i was supposed to resting at home but one auntie wanted to change with me. I agreed and i am working at 3.30 pm tomorrow. I am having no leaves until 24th. I had straight 2 days off and 3 public holiday. There is a reason for this. I am going to Malaysia from 24th to 27th of Jan. I kind of switching my resting days order. Well, it's not too bad as there are balanced morning and afternoon shift. I mean not straight morning shift all the way. I will sure die xP When packing up, i counted my float and my sales. Apparently, i used the wrong equation the calculate my sales and it resulted in shortage of 199.95 bucks(nice number?). Then i recounted again and it was correct. Then the auntie asked me i minus how much and that is when i realised i used the wrong equation. In the end, i had excess 5 cents. Sigh~ Tomorrow is my dad's death anniversary... I will stop here for now. ==Zzz
