Yupz...Today is the day i officially start work at Giordano. Guess where i'm posted to......Yar...i was stationed at Clementi. I was shocked initially but realised that it was actually a good news. It was basically in the neighbourhood so the human flow is not as heavy as the town area. This gives me more time to learn the ropes there. The ppl there were very nice and i think i was the quietest.

Anyway the highlight of today was not about the customers that walked into the shop but it was a super super duper embarrassing committed by a sotong. The story goes like that......

Sotong was walking towards Clementi, trying to find Giordano. However, as there were some renovations going on, some of the roads were blocked. Sotong was super glad that to see a big Giordano banner and she walked towards that direction. Sotong then went into the shop and happily introduced herself as the new staff. The girl at the counter looked at her with a super confuse expression. She then went in and called a guy out. Sotong repeated the same thing to the guy and the guy asked her:

Guy: " This is Bossini, are you reporting at Giordano?"
Sotong :" Oh My God!!! This is not Giordano???? ( Sotong glanced at the guy's name tag and saw the bossini logo.)
Guy: Giordano is just next door.

Haiz...this is indeed the most embarrassing thing tt could happen. To make matters worse the staff at Giordano and Bossini are on super good terms. Thus the news spread like wild fire. I bet by Mon the main office would get the wind of it.

Went for Giodarno training today. It was boring and fun at the same time. The boring part was the presentation on the organisation. Haiz...this is worse than lecture cos i couldn't sleep while the trainer was talking. I dun want to be sack on the first day :P The funny part was that the other trainer was super good at cracking cold jokes that i laughed my head off.

I guess my closet will have an additional collection of Giodarno clothes cos they are giving to me free as their uniform. Anyway i wasn't too happy about it. See from the conversation below:

Trainer :" Hmmm...i think our ladies jeans don't have your size. It might be too short."
Me:" I think its okie..I can try to wear 3/4 jeans."
Trainer: " I think its still okie, you can try the guys jeans."

In my heart and brain, only these words appeared : " OMG!!!!! OMG!!!! ITS SUPER UGLY!!!!"

I mean how can a gal wear a guy's jeans. The cutting all don't fit!!!! Haiz...i think i rather wear a shorter jeans than wearing a guy's. Giodarno should seriously spare a thought for tall people. Haiz...fight for the right of tall ppl.

Anyway, I've been eating like a pig lately cos i figured that i will be starved for the next few days while I'm down at the store. Haha...thus i shall store up now.

Got to wake u[ at 6 plus tml again. Haiz...Nitez

To the princesses who are struggling with their work, rmb these words : Persevere for the sake of money. JIA YOU!

Following the recent decrease in stock price, HM stock was affected and the price had been dropping these three years. A word of caution for the investors: please do not invest anymore in HM stock and reinvest in other stocks.

Finally and its like finally... I'm going to Korea. Yea! Waited for this trip for years and i really hope that i am able to see the cherry blossoms. Wondering if i will get fine if i pluck some back. But then again, i think it will rot by then. Anyway i believe my skin would get better from this trip cos we are going to the hot spring and spa. My GOd!!!! I feel so pampered.

The thing I'm most curious about is the difference between our kimchi here and theirs. I must eat their kimchi even though i will get gastric. haha..this is call die die also must eat.

Anyway putting aside all the fantasy that i have for this trip, I'm super tired today. Accompanied mum to the tour fair and it was jam packed with people. Worst still, Chan Brothers and SA are so far apart. We were like walking to and fro from the two fairs and had to squeeze through the crowd.

In the end we decided to go with Chan Brothers. Haha...i think is I'm biased against SA. The guy who served us was damn rude. It was as if we owe him a million bucks. He kept pushing us to confirm the date and book the tour without explaining anything. I gt so pissed off that i told my mum that I'm totally not in the mood to travel with SA.

In the end we came out of Chan Brothers with three bagful of free gifts. Can you believe it? I felt like an auntie carrying the ugly yellow platstic bag, full of free gifts and walking down city link that is jammed pack with ppl. Most importantly, no one was carrying the same plastic bag as me! I guess those who carried the Chan Brothers plastic bag took a cab home. The only thing that i was glad was that i chose to wear a cap today. Haha...in case i bump into anyone i knew, the cap is able to hide the auntie side of me from them. My mum tried to frighten me by saying that someone took a photo of me at the fair carrying bagful of free gifts and that it was going to be published in the newspaper!!! I'm going to kill myself if that happens.

Haha...dear jy princess I'll take a pic of the real Shin Goon if i manage to bump into him. And to the rest of the princesses I'll remember to buy kimchi back for u gals :) Lastly to dear penguin...i guess u will prepare a shopping list for me.

Tada...

I just have the mood to blog two posts today. I should be super tired by now, but i don't feel like sleeping at all. My mind is just full of things that i need to reflect on.

What life in SP had given me is not just knowledge but also emotions. Before coming to SP, there had been no dislike, worries, problems, complexity, regrets, etc in my life. Secondary school had been a wonderland for me and i guess thats probably one of the reason why i'm such an insensitive and inconsiderate person. I've always like things to be kept simple but i realised not everything turns out that way. This resulted in me running away from these situations. This is the reality of life and i had to face it. But i'm not ready yet......not ready yet.

I don't know how much i'll change in the future but whatever is it i just hope that its for the better. Bye bye to wonderland and welcome to reality....

I'm not the kind of person can express what i feel easily. This time round, i've decided to blog and express them to my dearest group of friends...

To the dear princesses:

Sam, thanks for always being patient and understanding. Sorry if i've not been able to do the same for you.
HuiXian,thanks for being there for me. Sorry if i've not been caring enough.
Jiayi, thanks for your honesty. Sorry if i've not been sensitive enough.I've must have caused lots of troubles for you. haha...

Love ya all....

To the escorts of the princesses.... (wahaha)

Qunjie, thanks for making my life more entertaining. Do i owe u any apologies? (haha..i guess i don't)
Jingwei, thanks for crapping with me on MSN. It helps to relieve my stress.. haha..Sorry for wasting your time with all the crapping.
Tobbie, thanks for all the support during all the project periods. Sorry if i've not been able to do so.

To my Shifu....

Thanks for taking me as your disciple. Thanks for chatting with me on MSN, giving me advice and relieving my stress. Sorry that i'm still unable to make any improvements and that you are still stuck with a disciple like me.

To Penguin;

I know that sometimes you are having a rough time but i'm unable to help and comfort you. Sorry for all the calls that i promised to make but always delay. Sorry for not being with you during your darkest period. My best sister - luv ya

I guess i've finished all my apologies. It does make me feel better by leaps and bounds. I'm able to sleep now....Ta-da

Today feels as if i had a dark chocolate stuck in my throat- super bitter and sweet. I guess this is the taste of life.

I've tasted the bitterness of losing today. It feels as if there are infinite tons of weights pressing on you- its so suffocating. However, the lost today made me realised what i really lacked and gave me lots of motivation to carry on walking the path that i've choosen.

I've to admit that i'm not as strong as appeared or assumed to be. Its just that i want others to feel that way. That's why i often ended up over tiring myself. That's why i lost all motivation to carry on. I guess sometimes i have to shout it out loud " Help! I'm helpless!!!" Haha...guess i've to start practising....Poor penguin....guess u will be my first victim.

The sweetness of dark chocolate:

Our class bagged 2 Champions!!!!! Congrats!!!!

I'm really glad that both of the champions came from our class. The cheers, photo taking and the lunch together are some of the valulable things that i've taken from the competition today.

This is the best ending for our upcoming graduation and it added one last stroke of colour to my life in Singapore Polytechnic.
