i have been posting one day late everyday but this is due to the fact that i want to capture everything that happened during the day. heehee.. (excuses huh but whatever) went to do some paperwork today and melissa(the recruiting department person) and she asked us what job did we wanna do. we can either be lifeguard (as the name suggest, they are suppose to save people) but they have to be ride operator for the time being due to the fact that nobody wants to swim in icy cold water (i am wearing like 3 layers of clothing and still feeling cold). i didn't want to become that because i don't want to be in icy cold water for the training. i don't have marvellous body shape as well as the fact that i don't want to end up drowning myself while trying to save some 100kg person in the pool. the next job is ride operator, like the former, you operate the ride, check the height of people and do safety checks. i didn't want to do this because it's pretty routine and i don't want la.... so boring(even though i have to admit that i am a boring person to hang out with most of the time since i just stone all the way). the third job that was offered is working at the games stations. those like throwing darts, flipping coins onto plates and so on. these people are responsible for tending those stalls. i didn't want to do this because i am firstly not very vocal and it gets confusing who won and stuff like that. the 4th job was administrator whereby you are suppose to sell tickets or become a helpdesk. wanted to do this but the person didn't want me to do it because i have not been a cashier before and stuff like that. in addition, my face suggest that i am not vocal and sensitive enough to be the helpdesk. so i am left with one choice and that is food. just simply cooking food and doing minor cashiering. haha.. i chose that for another reason which was i can take food back(the food here is pretty expensive actually so getting leftover will be a great thing for me!!!)
after doing the documents and while assigning to the in-charge, i realised i didn't fall into any of the above category. haha.... i ended up doing retail because the manager of the stall needed people who can speak english fluently (do i speak fluently?? i don't think so actually but nevermind, there's air con in there so i don't have to suffer from precarious heat during the summer time) the manager's name is called kathy and the assistant manager, who is her mum, is also called kathy. so as you can see, if you don't know what to call your daughter, just let her follow your name. haha.. isn't that easy? she's also doing this for the first time and i can see she is quite nervous and excited about this business and i'm pretty relieved because this means that she won't have certain expectations on us because she don't know about it. haha... :P so for the next few days, we will be doing tagging, stock taking(they called it inventory though), hanging up the clothes according to sizes and dress up the manequins (erms... i don't know how to spell that). there's quite a lot of things to be done actually and i am starting to sort of plan what we should do first and that sort of thing. i don't want to end up doing double work and stuff like that. will be doing my pass and attending orientation the next day(which is today actually) quite a nice boss. i kinda like her actually. :D
then we went shopping again. this time round, i decided to share only some stuff with my friend because i realised that we have quite a different level of requirements for our food so i just go ahead and suggested that we can share some of the things while split those that we want. she was pretty okay with it and i think it's just for the better for two of us since she like certain stuff while i hate it and vice versa. shopping together may become a chore for us in the future so i just wanted a split. maybe next time, we will do different shopping and stuff like that, it will be better. i don't want to end up quarreling over food. i decided to go ahead and buy oreo cookies(i think it can last quite a while since it has amounts that is equivalent to 3 long tubes in singapore. i am pretty happy about it. i know she dun like this but i really wanted it so i just went ahead with it. i also bought one can of cream of mushroom(equivalent to 2 meals. i can toast some bread and eat half a can of campbell! hahaha..) next on is cheese, i wanted to toast some bread together with cheese and sugar just like what my mum used to do for me. i love it and don't mind having it everyday. i am contemplating whether i should buy peanut butter but i figure out i better don't since it's pretty fattening :P i don't want to end up growing fat when i go back to singapore. but well, girls are fickle minded and i may just change my mind during my next shopping trip! i also bought i loaf of bread. quite expensive. i think i will buy the other brand next time. initially, my friend wanted to buy flour(which i am not very keen on since i don't want to help her make those stuff. why make cookies when you can get it at 25cents usd per piece. not a very wise choice and i just say i don't want to share. guess what? she ended up putting back into the shelves. i was like hmm.... you can just go ahead and buy. we also bought beef(i don't mind sharing that) and onions. we bought one waffle mix(although i think it's a waste of money and i don't really want it but aiya.... i think she is more stingy than me and keep wanting to share. i was like. okay lor... nevermind la... share lor. treat it like mac breakfast lor. but it's waffle mix. i don't know how things will turn out) we also bought sugar! haha... for my cheese! and bought eggs(we found out somebody just took one of the eggs out after we brought it home. it's simply unlucky huh) she went ahead with yoghurt(i dun fancy yoghurt and i feel that that's a surplus since i feel it's more like a dessert rather than food) and also two packs of instant noodles. (seriously, from the packaging, i don't think it's nice so i didn't want any. i will wait till she has eaten it before i eat any of those.) everytime amounts to 33USD. so actually, i have spent 30odds USD on food so far. it's pretty saddening because we didn't manage to get 1.99 ice cream. there's no one single tub left man. have to go and buy earlier next time round. haha...
i can sense she is quite sad about the split thingy but ya... i don't want her to restrict what i want to buy and i don't want to restrict what she wants to buy. i mean people have different wants and that sort of thing and i don't feel the need to accomodate her (since she is not my bf/gf and her style is just pretty off from me because i value my breakfast alot while she doesn't. that's where the difference come about) it's not that i don't like her cooking so i just hope she understands.
actually, i also don't like the idea that she sticking with me all the time la.... (i am not her gf/bf). for the job thingy, i wanted to do food and initially she wanted to do the ride operator. but in the end, she wanted to do food too (i was like hmm....) and we end up doing retail together. i don't know whether that's a good thing or a bad one. i just hope everything turns out okay... haha.... i seriously like her(as a friend) but she don't control/psycho me. i won't be bothered so much about it. for the job thingy, i think i will let her handle all the things. i won't bother about arguing with her or whatever.
the idea of everybody asking her to take care of me also kinda pisses me off. my mum and several friends all asked her to take care of me. am i that weak and incapable of taking care of myself? i don't know... one of my friends told me it's because they are concerned with me that's why they wanted her to take care of me. whatever la... i don't think i am that incapable as they think but who cares about what they think? i am just a weakling in their eyes. i won't be bothered anymore. i just wanna enjoy what i am doing now and don't care what other people has to say. satisfying others kind of pisses me off.
signing off here. going to bath now. :D today will be a great day for me because i have oreo cookies with me! YEA!
