Teehee 1 week's gone, 1 more day to cab to & fro! (And the fares are covered by the company!)
Anyway the week's been okay; the temporary implant job at Alexandra is pretty slack! The first two days I had literally nothing to do except to do hourly updates! (& Cause the people there feel ps to ask me do their work) But then again, once there's things for me to stamp, my hands died everyday!! I remembered how badly my arms ached after the first/second day of stamping!! There's hundreds of envelopes to stamp sometimes, and one envelope required like 11 stamps! (Do your math!) Better still, for the first 2 days of stamping, I just stamped every page that I think requires one! So it's like sometimes 21 stamps for one envelope omg!
& I've got quite a fair share of free time after stamping. which I mainly spent the time on updating, chatting via email(mainly to Michelle) or text and surfing the net (but I don't watch shows there, just read news and recaps!! :D) The place's quite small too with very poor connection at times. Sometimes, I just don't get any connection for the whole afternoon unless I step out of the warehouse building!!
But other than that, the people there are pretty friendly, just that they communicate mainly in Guangdong accent!! And it's sometimes too fast for me to catch! But other than that, they do prepare my dinner if I OT most of the time :) And there's a greater variety of food choices than in my current staff canteen! It's like seriously a food haven, like what Michelle told me when she accompanied me for the first 3 days! A big foodcourt, 7-11, Astons(!!!!!), Killiney's, Subway, Crystal Jade... In the office building opposite the place where I'm in. There's a gym for members as well, daebak!!
(Hehehe I had Starbucks there as well, a treat from Michelle!! :D)
Okay there's also this thing about weird/funny drivers! I've met some who couldn't swipe the e-voucher/ cannot print receipt and they were super reluctant to take the card and issue me manual receipts, like seriously I also cannot pay what!! I still remember my first ride hahaha omg caught in massive jam inside KPE tunnel for an hourrrrrrrrr :( and the bill was 53 bucks?!
Oh yes there was also this very chatty driver who cannot stop talking on the way back! It's not bad, but sometimes I just dk how to respond! And it was hilarious because he even taught me how to see if the person knows how to use the cab functions and where to press for extra receipt!
There're also drivers who talk about things like their work, why studies are important... (Oh I remembered one of them talking about his son who isn't doing v well but he dk whether to go poly/JC, just like me in the past!)
Other than that, I napped on the cabs most of the time, cause of motion sickness as well! The ride's like 30~50 mins if everything's smooth!
Ohyes this weekend was really... argh!! Tsktsk cause of work I've missed dates with Shubin who asked me out on Saturday itself, though she should've known it's almost impossible to ask me out on a last minute basis!! & Also with the class girls+Leroy for breakfast! (I'll really try to make it for the outing on 12th kkkkk!) && Steamboat with Jana they all, I guess it's with Eugene, Gan, Evan.... !! :( It's like probably the last time I'm seeing them before they enlist!!
I'm hoping that I can make it for the USS outing on Wed/Thurs, though chances are not high since it's a working day for me!!
Oh and yes today I survived 12h without food. I didn't mean to starve myself kkkkkk. Just happen that I left my lunchbox + snacks at home tdy :( Lucky I ate some rice that my mum made in the morning!! The canteen and shops opposite were mostly closed today, and I was broke!! Double phail!!
I tried apple pie tdy cause WaiPing offered me one to fill my stomach! :)
& Anyone' gna go for MJChoir's concert?? :O I'm working but Idm if anyone needs me to tag along :P
