about THIS BLOGGER HAS MOVED TO qui-xotic.blogspot |
Saturday, November 27, 2004 Lol . Shall blog in an extremely laggy fashion , reason being that I've been really busy and thus without the time to update (:Last friday , exactly one week ago , I went to Sentosa for the first time ! Maybe not first , but first time in about a decade or so . The weather was atrociously awful !! It rained at least four times ? Oh , and I seriously am rather fearful of the sand . And of Pamela as well . She was dragging everyone into the water and dumping sand in everyone's pants ! My word . And salt water ... it's salty . eeeurrrggghHHHHHH . yuckles . I managed to muster enough courage to wear my swimsuit and actually swim , which is good news (: Then I got a call saying Mr Low was on the way , so I hurriedly threw my top on to spare him from seeing anything (: And lol , he's hilarious . He walked near the sea , letting his dog prance about and THEN .. A wave came in and he wet his adidas shoes ! lol . A few times :/ Shadow , his silky terrier is positively adorable ! He waded out and when Low lifted him up , he was still paddling like an electronic water toy ! SO cutee ! After that , we got out of the water and gave away the titles ... I got Miss Charismatic . Ha . But something very interesting was that Cassie and I got the highest number of votes for Miss Sophisticated ... When people usually call us ditzy ? HAHAHA . See there . Point proven ! You are officially no longer allowed to slander our names with such denigration and vilification , thank you very much . (: I got top votes for Hot-Bod on cassie's list but the title went to resh in the end ! HAHA . Guess I'm quite cold then . But I got HORRIBLE pix . How saddening , honestly ): Then the saturday after , I went to work ! It was immense fun okay . It was a wedding function , so I got thirty bucks a shift ! $) So was asssigned a whole row of tables to look after and was later informed by my mother , who wasn't present , that it was bullying to take on so many tables because usually it's manned by three people . But its okay . Fun . Just my luck . The only two tables that wine was permitted to be served happened to under my charge ! One table was full of young twenty somethings , and the other table , foreigners . I had to get a waiter to help me uncork the bottles of wine . I was almost getting intoxicated from the bouquet itself , as I doled out and refilled the glasses of the guests , who were gulping down liquor like fish . Sheesh . They also requested for hard drinks like brandy etc . Pee - yeww ! And the silly table full of 'hard drinkers' were just getting redder and redder , their eyes becoming more bloodshot , and I still had to be gracious and pour them more , when I probably should have refused them . Also , space was incredibly tight . A couple put their huge , hulking babies pram against the wall , leaving me practically no space to race about getting people their drinks refilled and such . How annoying . But I still managed to wind my way up and down at top speed , rotating my hips to fit through the crevices . At the pace I was doing it , I must have looked like a fairly good belly dancer in a hurry becuase one of the 'hard drinkers' was casting lascivious glances my way , that is , until his female companion asked him to start looking at her instead . Lol . The other drinking table had a caucasian couple and a bunch of honkies .. It felt extremely good to speak english again !! They looked like nice people , so I had hoped they'd tip me about fifty bucks (which was what one waiter recieved before) , but my fantasy came to naught ): Ha . Later on , I had cleared the plates and was walking back to the kitchen , when all of a sudden , this girl disdainfully stood up and without looking at me at all , plonked a large platter on top of the dishes I was already struggling with . (!!) And that girl - Oh my word . Hideously dressed with either no fashion sense or a very crude and completely inappropriate one , she smeared on blue eyeshadow like there was no tomorrow , till her face resembled something like those chinese paper mache face masks with bold strokes of colour , except her face was still in the gloopy paper mache form . Crass . However , I maintained my cool and my own face was like a perfect mask of anxious service , while I was actually conniving of means of which to brutally assasinate her for adding to my unbearable load with so much as a question . Sheesh . Oh and one interesting thing - when I went to the toilet later , I found my skirt's zips and hooks completely undone ; the only thing preventing my skirt from slipping and revealing my undies was my mango belt . Ha . Just shows how much twisting and turning I made (: The following night , Sunday , there was another wedding function . So even though my arms felt like they wanted to amputate themselves from my shoulder blades and flop limply on the floor , I still went (: I walked so much that the rubber design at the bottom of my shoe came out partially . So I just swathed my shoe in wads of scotch tape to keep it on (: I just adore working (: I've made about two hundred bucks since I started , and my hours are really slack . +grin . Mmmph . But he's leaving soon ):
