Updates Updates!!!

Yea... i know... i havent been blogging for a very very long time. There has been just tons of things happening that i don't really know where to start.

Well let's start off with Christmas... my dad and my sis extended their stay... and celebrated this christmas with me. Am very grateful and happy. I just enjoy their company. So the Christmas that i envisioned that i would have a month ago was totally different as the actualy Christmas day itself. It was pack with laughter, joyful, thankfulness and warm. It was meaningful, just something very different from the christmas i have back in Singapore. Nonetheless, i still miss you guys, yes... you guys still hold a very special place in my heart. Yup, and... there is this church friend of mine, he taught me how to play this game called snatch! You have to be good in your vocab to play in this game. coz its just MIND BOGGLING. yep... really enjoyed their company... it was just so pure, warm and fuzzy.

After Christmas comes New YEar, by this time, dad and sis has already head back to singapore. And... i'm left to celebrate New Year with my own group of friends. BTW, their all older than me... some graduated already, others working full time... or left one more semester. But it has been great to be with them. Interesting insights and perspectives... there was alot of sharing done. Like how has 2005 been for each one of us, and our resolutions of 2006. Very eventful, very meaningful. There's just this bonding that i had with all of them... where we just were so comfortable of letting others know of our true colours and all. Like the ice has been finally broken. You know... relationships such as friendships don't just form overnight. And, i'm just glad that i've gotten to know them better in a personal way.

Right... and after New Year i start work... grr... this one is ugly. Coz the lady boss posted me to their new outlet, which is WAY busier than the old outlet. Not that i'm not capable of handling many customers at a time. It's just that the guy boss didn't tell me where he placed all the items, and didn't tell me about the new pricing. He just expected me to pick it up *snap snap like that! URGH... the first day was terrible. He say "Linda! ni kan! you na me duo ren ni hai na me man!!!" and when i ask him where he put the stuff he say "ni yao zhi zi kan zhi zi zao ah!" Really wanted to stuff my shoes into his mouth. And it's not like their paying me alot! UNDERPAId and OVERWORK. Yup, confirm gonna look for a new job. It's just that i've given them my word that i'll work for them in summer... so have to keep to it. Linda is a woman of her words.

Right... but this coming week, the lady boss has posted me back to the old outlet. Reason is becoz there is gonna be some competition and they have to be really on their toes. They really see their customers as gold. Cannot lose a single business to anyone. Must be first.

There is another shop where there are seats for customer to seat and eat. and its just beside the new outlet. like really side by side. So... there'll be tight competition. Got to be quick fast and excellent in all they do if they want to earn more $$$$. So... lady boss going back to help out. GOOD FOR ME... haha... i can't wait to go back old store... get my freedom back. IT SUCKS to have the boss at ur back watching every single step... and if u make a itcy bitcy minor mistake... WHAM!!! Unreasonable bosses are the last thing u want when ur working...

This coming week, my summer course starts. Alittle bit uptight about it coz i dunno how its gonna work out. Argh... abit clustophobic... just have to trust the hand of God... cause i know He will lead me through all obstacles... yup. Here's a glimpse of afew pictures of me, my sis and dad during their memoriable stay here.
