    Waraku!

    Went to the Waraku outlet at Cuppage for dinner with my sis just now! The beef kaminabe (miso soup) was a little disappointing. I guess the clear soup might have been better. But the rest was all right! Wanted desserts but too full...
     
    Had some terrible customers today. I guess people in service and retail would know which 2 nationalities of guests are the worst. Hur. No further elaboration needed. A group of tourists from the PRC came today. Fuck. One of them was so fucking rude, I just don't want to do her business no matter what. But then again, she wouldn't buy anything from the shop cos it was too ex for her. Besides, people like her wouldn't appreciate our stuff. She's only fit to carry those cheapo things she can get from her homeland.
     
    The moment she went in, she started complaining about why there are no price tags on the items, when some of them actually do. And she could have asked me if she really wanted to buy. Why? She didn't think I would understand Mandarin? Then her fren asked my Malay colleague for the price of an item and that irritating woman commented, "Why isn't there anyone in this shop who can speak Mandarin?"
     
    Fuck. Who said that all Singaporeans can speak Mandarin. Egoistic. This is one bad point of those type of people that I just totally detest even though I was in China for about 5 months. Just can't stand huge egos! In the first place, she isn't really serious about buying! She just wants to ask the price of everything so see which are the items she can afford and then compare them to the low prices in her home, and we all know the reason why. = =''
     
    Besides, she could have asked me in Mandarin but she didn't. It's like she thought nobody in the shop can speak Mandarin when she didn't even try asking and then expected at least one of us to speak the language. As if it's mandatory here. Nabeh. And I didn't want to entertain her cos of her lousy attitude. I didn't think she would buy anyway.
     
    At least I had a nice meal at Waraku and got my fringe trimmed.

    It's an omen!

    Today was a damn suay day and all the omens were laid out, in front of my eyes, but my ignorant self was not able to recognise them.
     
    Fuck.
     
    Firstly, we served a rich Brunei customer who bought SGD$300+ worth of goods. He paid us in Brunei currency, which was of the same value as SGD. When paying us, he WARNED us to count the money properly to ensure that they were not counterfeit notes because we would not be able to find him once he leaves. We didn't check the notes properly and after he left, I took the notes out to check and lo and behold! One of the notes had its corner cut off.
     
    Nabeh. And to think he warned us!!! And we still didn't check it properly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The banks wouldn't accept the note and my colleague and I have to split the price between us. Luckily our boss halfed the amount we have to pay. If not I would really quit that damn job.
     
    Next, when we left, I realised I left my mobile in the shop. Luckily, I was only at Cold Storage. My colleague went back with me and she found out she left her wallet there as well! Ho! Another omen! I'm sure something bad will crop up!
     
    True enough... It started raining the moment the bus reached Seletar. Thanks alot, God!
     
    Although it was a suay day, it could have been suay-er. So really. I thank God for his blessings and I believe that any man who is out to fulfil his destiny will definitely get help some way or other.
     
    And if you happen to read the book, "The Alchemist" by Mr Coelho (I only recall his surname), you will start believing it the above too. And not to forget, keep seeing omens along the way.

    I dropped my Little Twin Stars handphone accessory in the toilet today. I dunno where the chain disppeared to, but I still have the Little Twin Stars thingum with me.
     
    Went back after dinner and surprise surprise! The cleaner auntie actually asked if my accessory was all right and if it's fixed! Oh my! I never thought that cleaner aunties were that nice!!! Ho ho ho!

    Wastage.

    Dun understand why people have to use 3 pieces of paper to dry their hands after washing.
     
    Fuck. Don't they know that the forests are disappearing and the world's climate is changing? It's not as if they are giants and their hands are enormous. I just don't understand. I thought education was supposed to make people more civilised and less self-centred. Then why don't they care about the earth, the place they are living in?!?!?
     
    Even children are like that, thanks to moronic parents. Kinda sad to see such selfish people. Boo!

    "Just browsing..."

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I DUN WANNA HEAR THAT LINE, "JUST BROWSING" ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!
     
    Fuck. Just browsing. Just browsing. Just browsing.
     
    After the customers were "Just browsing," they start "touching" and "misplacing". And then, they start "enquiring". All their enquiries are what I wanted to tell them right from the start! So why can't they just fucking listen!!! So they won't ask me and I can do my job! Knn!
     
    Why can't people just listen more and stop acting like a know-it-all, only to make themselves look stupid? It is pissing me off, the number of no-brainers I've met.
     
    Enough of those shat.
     
    Working in the airport, out of the transit area is quite cool. Everyday, I see sweet scenes that made me just wish I had a camera so I could capture that moment. Couples hugging, grandchildren taking pictures when their grandparents who have difficulty moving around, parents asking their children to take care. It's all just so... sweet.
     
    Reminds me of the reason why we are in this world and the many many types of love we have eeryday of our lives.

    Nada Sou Sou

    Watched that movie... It wasn't as nice as I expected la. The plot was a little draggy and I'm not really that much of a fan for love soppy shows. But the cinematography and all was nice. The film was beautifully shot. Very pictureque.
     
    There was this scene after the lead actor, Yato (played by Satoshi Tsumabuki) passed away. The picture of him that the sister, Kaoru, was carrying during the funeral was so cute! Wahahahahhaa! I want my funeral pic to look like that too! A pic of me when I was young and untainted by the society, smiling away happily so that my grandchildren would think that the world is actually a nice and harmless place afterall. Actually, it is. But the humans are not. Hur.
     
    I want my funeral picture like that! Pity I can't find the picture online. But he was grinning till his eyes sort of screwed up into a 2 lines. Sort of like how a kid smiles when he is really really happy. Imagine that.

    Time...

    Now the question is not what course to take but when?
     
    Funny how we always question about the speed at which Time passes and Time takes the question and throws it back into our faces. HARD. We were always questioning time with when's, how long's and why's when the problem doesn't lie with Time but with us! Time must be really irritated. That's why it always passes faster when we are doing something we enjoy and slower when we are not enjoying ourselves.
     
    Since Time has always been subjective, we shouldn't really question it that much but instead just enjoy the Time. Questions will just befuddle us, stop us from enjoying and are a plain waste of Time.
     
    So the questione now should not be when I want to take the course, but whether I want to study now.
     
    Fuck. I hate questions.
