yesterday...

pity pearly, i was late to meet up with her at the education fair. right after i got down from the bus, bumped into wen cheong and man yit. both of them were leaving and i just arrived.

the conference room was very packed and crowded. didnt expect so many turned up for the talk on biotech. finally i saw pearly among the crowd and ai wen was just in front of us.

wandered around aimlessly. forced to take the pamplets from almost every booth. yes, i can say no but err... tak sampai hati say no to pretty girls ma. what a good tactic,hire pretty girls to give away pamplets~actually wanted to find out more on the courses at certain booth but it was either they were too busy to layan me or just some ke leh feh gave me some unsatisfactory answers.

its kinda ironic to see some colleges' booth crowded while some just empty and the staff there just goyang kaki. me and pearly purposely went back for the 2nd round to look for one particular booth and what a dissappointment. mind u, it was supposed to be one of the most prestigious uni in the country though it falled from its ranking.*u know which uni i mean rite?*

the brochures about were thrown all over on the table. there was an indian lady, i assume she is just a part timer, cause she answered "dunno dunno..."to almost every questions asked to her.

why dont she just a hang a tag written with big "dont ask me. i dont know anything"? come on, i know most of them hire some part time but at least give them some training or place an officer there. i m sure there are many parents who would enquire more.

another one was the scholarship's booth. there was one lady sitting on a table. i asked her if the forms are free and she nodded. so i took one and was about to leave before pearly reminded me to take another for her.
in a sarcastic manner, she asked "what u gonna do with it?"
i was puzzled. *as if i can sell the form?*
i answered "i'm gonna apply"
she again asked "what course?"
i havent actually look up the whole list and wasnt sure about the particulars
so i told her "perhaps biotech..."
again, she questioned me "what are the details? izzit 2+ 1 or 3+0 or...?"i i sensed something is wrong.
but i was kinda blur until pearly whispered to me
"so teruk. she looked down on us..."
then onli i was aware of the situation.
but i didnt threw words at her though i was kinda mad at her for being so sarcastic?
perhaps i'm aint that excellent to get a scholarship but ...
perhaps i dont even look like someone who is actually literate?
nvm, i'm used to it
honestly, i've met some worse ppl. some asked if i passed my bm ( of course, he never listen to my bm before asking me that). others were in disbelief when i told them my spm results.
i guess one really shouldnt judge a book by its cover. isnt?

after that pearly's parents took part in a quiz. from there only i know that spongbob lives in a place called bikini bottom. fyi, all got it wrong except us. u shud see the others reaction. even if i gotta guess the answer, i would cancel out bikini bottom straight away. haha

did i mention i met some friends over there- mei chern, ai wen, rowena, siew wai. really nice to catch up with them after so long.

was tired so decided not to stay for the last talk. took lrt home. i've made a record. i didnt online last night. haha.

and today...

at last, i've worked for a month, officially. now, i have a reason to celebrate. we received our pay too. double joy? had pizza from domino for dinner, while working till it actually caught passerby's attention. we wouldnt mind anyway. oh,luckily we get along quite well and kinda happy working along them.

customer is always right. but, till now, i still dare not to make a scene while shopping. first of all, we were closed, but technically havent, cause i left another door half-opened. we welcomed them and let them have their sweet time browsing for clothes. then he tried plenty and gave us an impression he will buy all. finally, i made up his mind on a particular shirt. too bad, there was only one left (his size) but that was for display. he didnt like to hear that. he demanded for discount or we paid him for dry cleaning. hmm...i can understand if he didnt like the display one but i never thought he would request us to take it for dry cleaning or paying him for that.

litte reminder, be considerate abit. dont rush into the shop knowing they have closed or closing. and if u ended up didnt buy anything, definitely u will annoy them.

right now, i'm watching this hits award 2004 on astro. there was one part where joey didnt pay attention on which of her songs got an award.

it's well known that this particular station gave away awards to almost everyone. so everyone who attended it ended up with at least one award. overall, it's still nice to catch their performances.

and i still have plenty of stuff to blog. kinda sleepy le.
