Starting a new month

Hey I'm back :D again
Well I'm always back since I always have a long break between each post :P

I bet most of my readers has stopped coming back anyway but I'll write this for myself to remember.


4 days ago I started working as a waiter. Getting this job was so easy. Before this I have already been looking for a job since my exams ended which was before Deepavali I think. About half a month trying to look for a job, at pyramid and at parade.

At first I tried a few places which said that they would call back. Before this my friend has told me that when they say " we'll call you back " it means NO! they are just wasting your time making you fill up an application form about 2-4 pages long?

For the second time, I tried my luck at Nando's again. This time the " good manager " was there but he asked me to come back at 3 as it was lunch hour and they were busy. I came back at 3 and the " not good manager " was there with the good one. Of I forgot to mention I went with my friend. They asked us to sit and they both were talking. Soon they called my friend and wanted to hire her but they said she had to work till 1130 the latest shift. She couldn't as she was still busy and it might be too late for her, so she asked them to hire me instead. I got it :D

I was so happy getting a first YES. I was to start the next they and they prepared everything for me. After that I met up with Azhad and the others. Azhad told me he got a job at Dome and he was alone, so he asked me to join him. Without any hopes, I asked Dome for the 2nd time. Well on the spot the manage interviewed me and I was hired.

Comparison between Dome and Nando's

Dome | Nando's
Paid RM5/hour | RM4/hour

Working
life Always on the move, busy | No idea

Freebies Iced Tea on request/ random drinks | I think soft drinks?

Staff meal Only on Fridays and Saturdays | Yes, after 8 working hours
( i think Picked from menu )

Well I chose Dome since Azhad was alone but I didn't know that he would be working for only 1 month. After that 1 month, I WILL BE ALONE ! :(

1 word for the customers of dome, Gods. The customers are treated like one. Everything is done by the waiters. Enough of work talk hehe.



Signing out, a dome waiter.

Today I had chemistry 2 and 3, it was totally OUTRAGEOUS. Even those people who studied complained that it was hard, what do I have to say? I didn't study at all.


Secondly, I want to say Thank You to everybody who wished me and didn't :3

Happy Birthday dad !

As the titles states,

Happy Birthday Daddy !

Woo ! went out for supper at sri melur at 12+
Only the four of us because my eldest brother is in Melaka. Me and my other brother ordered food and drinks and as usual my dad ordered his teh tarik kurang manis. Saw Huey Yann with her parents and Shern Wei with his friend. Reached home about 1 + , install a Wii emulator and tried to play Muramasa but it was a lagging so bad that it was not playable :(

Woke up at 9 15, rushed, washed up and packed my bag for group study and volleyball. Didn't study much, played with hamster. Sem brought it for SueLi to play with. I got pictures but I'll upload it later, in a dota game now. RUSH BLOG !

Came back at 6 45, bathed and went to Windmill for dinner with dad and mommey. 2nd brother went out with cousins. 3 of us only, kinda sad but still :D weee

Reached home, cousins and brother bought cake for dad. Oh enjoyed it. Going to DotA now.


ps. Behbeh, I'm not an addict and I want more heads, your heads :D

Blog Revival ! for the moment

Hey yall, it has been a while since I last posted.

Been really busy with YE work, just a notebook or an organiser. We had to make 2THOUSAND books. All handmade and the process from 1 to another is really slow.

FRONT COVER
We had to stick stripes ( red and white ) , a blue rectangle , the 14 pointed stars and the cresent ( cut out from paper ) . Oh yeah we had to measure the margine for the front cover.

WHAT'S INSIDE
We had 8 boxes filled with paper, blady heavy. Had to carry them from the staff room to the YE room. Well it is an organiser with a year in it, 12 months. Each page has only half a month. Best of all the papers in the boxes were not sorted out. The papers were so fine that they stick together. When there is paper, there is papercuts. Ouch.

OVERALL
We had to punch 5 holes in every book and I think there are only double hole punchers and nothing more. Had to punch each book 3 times to make 5 holes. There are 24 pages ( 12 months ) front cover and back cover which makes it 26 pages. Punching 26 pages at once would kill the puncher so some had to split a book into 2 or 3 then start punching. After getting the 5 holes for every book, we had to tie them with a ribbon.

THE MATHS AND NUMBERS
1 Front Cover - 7 white stripes , 7 red stripes , 1 blue rectangle , a star and a cresent

2000 front covers - 14 stripes x 2000 = 28000
2000 blue rectangles
2000 stars
2000 cresents

Glue them all together and make a Malaysian flag.


1 Year - 12 months , 12 sets ( sorted out in pairs of 2 )

2000 years - 24000 months = 48000 sheets of paper sorted out .


1 Book - 5 holes , 3 times to punch( for a full book ) , have to split into 2 or 3

2000 books - 5 x 2000=10000 holes , 30000 times to punch , multiply by amount of times divided.


Tying them together was quite simple, no numbers lol

YE has about 30+ members? Just imagine plus I didn't do THAT much. hehe :þ

Our teacher advisers wanted to get our effort into the Malaysian Book of Records for making the most handmade books. It costs RM1500 to get the application. If they do not accept it, wooo RM1500 kena makan.

School was going to buy all of books and give it out to students so all of us got our own books back.

About 3 weeks ago, my dad bought me a new pair of NewBalance running shoes :)
Thanks dad!
Before this I always wore my brother's shoes but they were slightly small and were hurting all of my toes. You can just imagine running for 30+ minutes with the pain on both feet.

Since my dad is a runner himself and my other 2 brothers do not join him for runs, I guess he was really happy when I started to run with him. For the first time in my life, my dad asked me to choose a few models and asked the woman to get my size WITHOUT CHECKING THE PRICE. I " oh emm geeee "-ed. AfterI chose the one I liked, he just told the woman he wanted it and only at the counter when he was about to pay, he asked the price. Lucky my dad is a pacesetter member so he gets discounts on some brands.





PriceTag : RM330
Discount : About 30% - 40%
Colour : Silver / Gold
ShopLocation : NewBalance, Pyramid
Why I chose it?
As most of you don't know, I am a flat-footed. Being one, it makes me more prone to injuries and pain at the feet. This shoe has a medium height arch to slowly form an arch on my foot.

I've only wore this shoe twice because there are no runs during the fasting month.

ps. I'm still waiting for the pictures to upload =_=
*edited* yeah finally


Still waiting for the upload, byee

Holiday Week ! ~

I just realised that it has been more than 10 days since I last posted. Time passed so fast and I haven't done anything, studying and stuff. Been playing my games 24/7 and having excessive sleeping hours. This really has wiped my memory, I can't remember what I did on last Saturday and Sunday other than volleyball.


Looks like I will not be looking for anymore jobs, it is already Wednesday. Unless there are events which needs help.
:D

I'm not what else to blog about, I think I'll chat/dota/cs soon :)

Byee

Blogging, a diary?

Dear blog, xD!




I'm not sure if any of you have seen my wound but Not To Worry! I have 'fresh' pictures about 1 hour after the fall. Hoho

1. What lighting :P


2. Close up !


3. Moving back a bit


Pictures taken using my phone. 2 megapixels ~

Bloooooooody isn't it? Like a half-cut dragonfruit !


This whole week has been so boring. Starting off with Monday, assembly today was uhh...different? Worst thing was that I had forgotten to bring my tie. I was using my bag to cover. Nazrin too didn't bring his and he was sitting infront of me. Both were hugging bags. They SuPeR small trophies were given. I can't remember for what though, as usual I was busy falling asleep. Soon there was something different, they were annoucing 2 students from each class, a boy and a girl. It was for best behaviour, chosen by the form teacher.

Soon I heard my class and to a surprise, I heard my name !

Somebody : 4 Sigma, Wong Ooi Foo dan Nuraihan.

I was half asleep then and was asking around why they called my name for. Best behaviour without a tie ! Quickly took my friend's tie and wore it on the way to the stage.

We received a tag saying " SAYA PELAJAR BERSOPAN SANTUN ", name , class ,school and an Oval Smiley !




I LOL'D at the tag.


Nobody believed that I got it either !
Alvin and good behaviour. No click? xD



Tuesday and Wednesday was normal.
Slept at 4 because I was doing my last minute moral essays. Thursday, we had some merdeka thing for the first 1-2 periods which we had to sing and stuff. As soon as my classmates heard " Tomorrow got some merdeka crap wei ", about half the class didn't come to school =_=

Left half the class to attend and no teachers were teaching, only our history teacher.

Friday , today ! Can't remember what happend, gosh what happened to me ~~

Just got back from tuition :D

There's school tomorrow !! T_T
I wonder who is going?
OR
Who's going MTV World Stage? xD


Oh yeah. Want to see something?





Thanks to Vanessa ! Photos by Amer ~



And I just want to say, please
Take care of your health
Avoid going out to public places
H1N1 is out of control and it is everywhere
We don't want to lose anyone
*cheers!*
I heard eating rice helps as an antibiotic for H1N1



Till my blog starts to die again, bye !

Tiring tired 2 days ! happy ending

Finally I have something to blog about ! yeaaa :D
*WARNING LOADS OF WORDS*
I rarely take photos, sorry ^^

1st August


YEP had the YE Sales yesterday, 1st August at pyramid. Just so you know what is YE Sales about. The YEP members also known as ' achievers' yesterday had to sell their products made by the students. It was a day long event. I woke up at 5.40am yesterday, got ready and walked to Karen's house at 6.25am. I was following her there because I had no transport.

First time in pyramid at 6.45am. It was dark, aircon-less and all we could here were the noises made by the cleaners. Being the first 2 students there, we walked to where the sales were going to be only to see white tables, a chair for each and a board behind each table. Sat and stoned till 7.15+ Had to wait for the others to come. Heard children's laughter , running around and some music. Freaky but it came from the small machines for young children to ride on.

The others came and I helped to carry the products to the stalls which were 2 floors down. T__T The shift started at 730am till 730pm. 2 hours per shift and only 5 students at the stalls. Others were not allowed to stay near the stall or we might be disqualified. 16 schools had the sales, couldn't remember the schools though, only mine :P

Saw my old friend there, Rudrra. He still looks the same from the last time I saw him, only now he has influenced his other friends to play DotA too. Hhahaha! He wanted a Puchong vs SS19 match in the future. Talked to him and his friends and went back to my stall area and talked to my friends :D

Did you know that my shift was from 1.30pm to 3.30pm?
Uh, was there to help and such.

Had breakfast at Old Town with ChanTong and Karen. Ordered the Nasi Lemak Special and a glass of Iced Water :)
Rm7.30 for the rice and RM0.70 !!! for water =.=

Went back to the stalls to chat and of course, stone. Sales only started at 9.30am. 7.30 shift people were so lucky that everybody was helping to prepare.

Jeremy and Nazrin came at about 12.20pm. Supposed to follow them to get Jeremy's shoes but I had to change and get ready for my shift. Wore my school uniform with my yellow slippers because I ' injured' my leg :P

Did my shift while stoning, was forced to smile and give out fliers to anybody nearby. The best thing happend, at about 10-15 minutes before my shift ended (3.30pm) Jeremy called and said he was going back. So much for teman-ing me ~.~

Furthermore, I had my shift extended by 20 minutes waiting for the people of the next shift to come. Finally they came and I went to change back into my normal clothes, realising that Ashlee had borrowed my phone and was no where in sight. Used Zafira's phone to call her and waiting for her to come back before i could eat lunch. About 4, she got back to the stalls area , gave me back my phone and said sorry. lol

Had SueLi and SheaWen accompany me for lunch at Subway! Ordered the ' Sub of the day ' which was the 6-inch seafood and crab. Picked my vegetables, sauces and added the subway meal consisting of a regular sized cup and chips :) yummy. Cost me RM12+
While I was busy enjoying my lunch, those 2 were camwhoring with their phone and soon mine, using the themes. Haha

Pricey but did I mention that General Electric ( GE ) my club sponser, sponsered the members RM7 for food and my school sponsered RM3. RM12 - RM10 = ??? Yay I had to pay RM2 for my lunch but I'll have to wait till I can get it claimed.

Walked back to the stalls just to have a look and saw Joyi, HueyYann, MingChang, YewVinn and ChenShen there. They went to ice-skate while I had my shift and lunch. Was ignored by Joyi because she said I ignored her first. Couldn't remember when I did though. Followed them around and Sem followed. The girls wanted a ' hot wrap ' LOL ^^! and YewVinn wanted to eat aunty annes. Tasted his chocolate mint :) thanks ! Soon Sem went to find his other friends and I went back to the stall. The others had to catch a movie at 7.

My parents called and they were outside. Entered the car and was on the way for dinner at about 7. The food at the restaurent was so slow and I was busy sleeping on the table in public. Was so exhausted, didn't eat much as I was still full. Went home :)

Had a nap, took a bath and used my pc ! Went up around 12 and I had a stomach full of air T__T

XiuMing asked me to jump around , ahhaha! I jumped and my food were flying in my stomach.
Experiencing slow digest and a lot of air since last tuesday due to throwing up.

Tired day 1. OVER !

I still had my bloated stomach and I had to run.


My run started at 7.15am
8km was the distance
