last week, i meet my relatives from china for the first time(okay considered the first time because the last time they came i think i was only5 years old and had no idea what was going on) haha. they came last week, pick them up at harbour front, brought them to eat. they are not like the usual china people we see in Singapore. They talk softly, very courteous and humble group of people. I think this is the straits of the teochew. :)) i talked to them and felt the closeness with them and have a sudden realisation that they are my blood related relatives. does it really matter where they are from? Even we speak different language but they both parties tried to communicate through mandarin. Probably its the effort that everyone put in to make both parties really feel like we are family. For the first time, i really understand what its so far yet so near. We stayed miles apart, yet we feel as close as sisters, even we only met for that short span of 5 hours. We asked each other for email to contact but that was when we realise that the web we used are totally different, we cant even email each other because they do not have emails. The online systems and webs they used are not common or not heard before in Singapore.
Suddenly, i have a thought, even if i can email them, i typed in english will i be pressurising them to reply in english too? sigh, come to think of it, writing letter seems to be the best way of communication. really hope they will email me soon:D i miss that.I hugged my niece before she entered the transit, i almost cried. She told me to visit them soon, in november. I think its their holidays. i cant, need to save up first. Omg i miss them. good bye! i will visit you all soon alrite! LOVE ALL OF U!!
omg bese test at 6. nth went in. i feel like dying.

This week is so interesting okay. last friday played overnight mahjong and won $27:)) whee.
haha but okay i spent all my money on cab.. :(( erm. saturday had the citytour. no doubt, the 4 of us(cherina, joyce, darren, jj and me) look like the walking dead. yawning the whole day.after that went home and slept for 17 hours! O.O i know i'm piggy lol.
Sunday went to work at SA tours fair and earned some money together with weiting:))
tuesday i was headwaiter. the kiasu me had a 1.5 hour meeting with mr malik and donavon, as well as amanda cos i drag her along. lol. but but the meeting and all the preparation like the super long email is worth it! TUESDAY WE MANAGED TO HIT THE MR GOH'S TARGET. haha which was $100 more than what i targeted. omg! haha thank u my fantastic team for working so well together. I simply love you all. This is one reason why I love ssm:)) the teachers are nice too. no scolding :D hehe. yesterday was really a great ssm day, not only because of hitting the target but i also can see everyone enjoying what they were doing. This gave me a great sense if satisfaction.
one new thing learned today (wednesday). bugis street has directions signs printed on the ground. These prints are huge okay. I think no one noticed because the road is always filled with people. Today susu and I walked through bugis street when no one is there, we realise that bugis street is actually quite huge and there are road signs and zebra crossing on the road! " will upload the picture soon:D"

haha another week has passed.
Monday studied so hard for accountings test but the paper was so tough. I think accountings is just not my thing sigh. i once had a friend who promised me that he would teach me accountings but now we are arent even talking. woh. things are just so unpredictable yah.
tuesday ssm I was bartender, haha so totally not prepared for it. I was told last minute so i didnt read up anything on what a bartender should know. Just so glad that everything went well. thanks KX :)) she was suffering from full body muscle ache but she didnt complaint a bit. thanks partner! if not things wouldnt have gone so well :D
thursday was a mad day. i din know that we have to present for the pre-assignment during class. My classmates told me that they will be doing ppt for the assignment i told it was just the way that the teacher wanted it. okay so none of my groups mates had actually prepared for the presentation. When i was in class then i know tat the 2 classmates volunteered to do the ppt because they cannot come tat day. i tot they were refering to meeting tat we were suppose to have on wed morning. On thurday then we realised that the presentation was not fully done because some problems had occurred. I really feel like dying because we had to leave class halfway, sit outside class to finish it. glad that we manage to finish it on time and our teacher was nice as he did not reprimand us for it. That was the only time I actually felt that how horrible one person can feel to rush for last minute work. I was so pissed because i have never been so screwed before. Was just glad that it was only participation marks for the assignment but it must have been a really bad impression made.
Friday was a happy day:)) after accoutings lecture, went sugarloaf to grab a small bite to wait for my godsis to come so we can have lunch at top table. i have waiting to bring her to top table for more than 1 term alr. haha but friday ssm was super screwed. i dont want to elaborate they should know it themselves. i hope they can improve on themselves because they were so screwed that either forgot to hand us the comment form or dont dare to hand us the comment form. i think ssm was a disappoinment because i waited so long to show my godsis the place i was so proud of.. but.. sigh she was veyr encouraging. She did not criticise them but help them to say good words. She even say good stuff about it to her sisters to ask them to revisit the place :D I LOVE HER! now u know how nice she is to me! She is the nicest person to me in the whole wide world. After that we went to my nanny house, played with the little ones and took a small nap before going to forum to meet cynthia, yuyi, darren, joyce, jj, xiangrong, vera for dinner at hardrock. it's a pretty place:) it was really fun that night, found out quite abit of stuff from each one of them that night. xiangrong plays mahjong! hurray! another person that we can ask for our mahjong sessions :D xiangrong jio me out to gym if you r going!! haha
okay saturday study study study. sunday attempted to study but failed. sigh! :( okay tmr is TTO test. i hope i can do well. tues: proficiency test. wish me luck to both tests! jia you bizhi! :D after that i can concentrate on my bese individual assignement alr.
