WELCOME TO THE SOCIETY a new phase
today is the first day for my to work at the fullerton as a bellboy after days of slacking and capturing photos. i must say working as a bellboy is feet-killing but i really had a jolly good time, especially with a trainer of mine who is exceptionally dirty and funny which kinda suit me.
the job today is very sudden for me as i had already promised aloy and weekiat to go to watch the real meaning of christmas. however minutes before im going to meet up with them, stella called me about the job saying to go meet our boss. i cant refuse the offer because there might not be another time to get to work again. i really must save up all of the earnings to buy my very own SLR camera. so in the end i had to cancel aloy's offer, i really felt guity because when i told aloy that i was going, he was so excited that he even msg yiqing that i am going...(you guys are wondering how i know, it is because he sent to the wrong person, he sent the msg to me) as for weekiat i promised that i would go with him, but i had to turn him down last minutes, it is really hard but i had no chioce.IM SORRY ALOY AND WEEKIAT
however , not all is bad about the job as i do get to met up with good working colleuge, met up with good customers, met up with some "tips" (the least the people would give is $10, think about it!!) and also really learned tips on the job. but i even had to burn my holiday and holiday eve just to earn more for my cam... well i guess really its a "warm welcome to the society".
im too tied up with work and i just cant find the time to do anything like hanging out with peeps (they also too tied up with work).

WELCOME TO THE MEMORY
seriously nothing to do today, im rotting at home, looking around all of my old stuffs and i came through this...
i guess u guys are wondering what is this... This ... ladies and gentlemens is a memorial item for OBS group ARMSTRONG. all of us made a oath when tieing the knot on this string, it says have fun after all hardships, and rest well after all hardships.
i still rmb after tieing this knot, our camp instructor said that tieing the knot means it is the end of OBS and wont be seeing us anymore... all of us at tht time got really emotional and stuffs because we just cant bear to leave. the smell of the string still reminds me of OBS... i want to go back again... with the same group and same instructor...

WELCOME TO THE SOCIETY
yestarday is a very tiring day for me because yestarday i went to work a part time job at "friends" restaurant. i heard that it is one of the 50 top dining restaurant, even the boss was featured on the newspaper.
yestarday i was allocated to go to catering part with aloy (my mentor), jun yuan and cheryl.we were sent to do a catering service at a bunglow somewhere at serangoon. there is only one thing i can say about the host... he is so damn RICH. he held a party just in front of his own pool and he even hired a fire eater to entertain his guests. all of his guest were all either caucasions or very fluent english speaking chinese.
i was glad that i was allocated to the bar counter, all need to do is just open bottles of beers and wine of the people, and thats not it, the people even came to talk to me, i can really say caucasions are really friendly and funny unlike asian people who were mostly vice versa.(you should know what i mean.)
after the whole thing, when all of us were packing up all of the stuffs ready to carry them up back to the company van, something happen. the van which was parked close to the soil was tilted and stucked, all of us tried pushing it back until all of our veins were popping out but it wont budge. we have no chioce but just to wait for the towing van which will arrive 2hrs later and our boss. while waiting , i sneaked back to the party place to grab a can of cold beer, at least it can waste some of the time.
when boss arrived, he gave us a ride exept aloy, to the main road to take a taxi back to dining place to grab our belongings, there we met up with stella and steve. all of us just sat around chatting about what happen during work, until we saw the company van driving back. all of us just went back to help out and boss treated us at mac. and tht is what rougly happen during my first day of f&b work.

WELCOME TO THE LONELINESS
today my parents just set off to taiwan for seven days ( going to taiwan never bring me... is this what you called parents?!? ) anw , going to be very lonely during the time they were out.
think about it...
. i could'nt have homecooked dinners cooked by my mom ( even though i do get sick of it sometimes) i had to take care of all the food all by myself with only 50 bucks to survive 7 days, even though my bro can cook.
. the house will be very very very messy . ( what can you expect from 3 guys living under the same roof )
. i will be very bored even though i borrowed a ps2 from shi yong . getting sick of playing the same games over and over again.
. still awaiting for my photography job, my boss keep having last minute long meetings. what can u expect from a creative director? however im going to have it by sat, when my boss is passing the cams to me.
. i am going to be very lonely because most of the time there will be hardly any people at home cause my big bro was usually at his future wife's hse and my second elder bro was either working/eating snakes at mindef. as for me, im going to have my photography job and i wont be at home either cause i need to go almost everywhere to get my pictures( have to make sure that my ez link is loaded).
bascially that is what would happen during the days when my parents are not around and yea it is going to be really boring...

WELCOME TO THE PARTING
today was a great day for each and every one of us (the graduates) because today is PROM NIGHT.
just realised that time pass really fast, if u dont cheirsh what u have now... when???
today for me... is kinda one of the big things that will leave a memory in my life. for me... i am dressed to kill tonight. not so formal and not so casual, a long sleeved and a vest is just right for me. i kinda get the vintage look but anyhow, lets get to the main event shall we??
at there , we had many phototaking session ( as usual ) , the most of the events were nice espcially daniel's bro breakdance crew and the duo singing acuostic "dont look back in anger" and the selection of the prom king and queen. these events were the best. before these event , they had lucky draw, and luckily or unluckily i am the first one to get the prize and it is just a small portable COOLING FAN!!! too bad im not the 1st prize lucky winner, 1st prize is a DVD player!!! lucky you chee leong!!! stella also got a prize, i think it is the 32th prize which is a photoframe, which is a lot more better then mine, at least can keep memories.
during the prom king and queen selection, sikai and dianna from our table is selected, but too bad sikai and his partner nign en didnt get through, only dianna and yusa got through, but they didnt win. in the end it is a couple from 5n won.
the dinner we had there was great, it ranged from shark fin soup to crunchy prawns and to honeydew sago. it was great!!!after that i was back to phototaking session again, took with alot of peeps but just regretted didnt take with one particuler one... soan... damn you vince...damn you for you cowardice!!!
anw afterthat mr ong sang us a wonderful song but mostly goes to the e3 class, but what the heck, his singing is good!!! he sang "the way you look at me" by Christian Bautista. it was great and heartwarming, he sang filled with emotions , he earned my respect man. *bow*
after the whole thing, it was party at the dance floor!!! sikai,daniel,hardy,bab,khairill,yaya,ihsan,hafiz and me went to break with the song. i can really feel the adrenaline rushing inside me, those dancesteps and breaking style which i cant even do , i did!!! it is amazing what adrenaline can do to our human body.
afterthat sikai,john,yiqin,stella,dianna , szeying (dianna and szeying went home earlier then us) and me went to slack at parco itself, just talking about lame jokes waiting for stella's father to fetch us. we really talked alot of crappy stuff like exchange lame jokes. afterthat it is back to home and here i am bloggin about what happen today.
time really pass very fast, to all my friends out there, i really appreciate u guys and love you all. it is sad to part away so quickly. really hope we can go back to school again where we can chit chat again even though there is tests and exams. it is very very sad to part away just like that.
