whenever there's a place that require good service, i wasn't sure if that includes hiring people from asia countries. sorry i didn't mean to discriminate or anything here, but i think maybe there's a language barrier that makes it diffcult to communicate between the staff & customer.
went to cp's macdonald to buy my favorite mcspicy meal, and was being served by this chinese national female staff. at first i ordered the usual, then she gave me the change back after i handed her a $50 note. within seconds i looked at the ad again, and decided to switch to upsize (to get the seaweed shaker fries), though i didn't in the first place. i understand AND will gladly stick to my original order, if you were already in the process of preparing. however it was YOUR ATTITUDE that irked me the most. in this service line, i don't expect a VERY RUDE reply from you... when i did not speak in a loud tone in the first place. this was what you said:
me: excuse me, may i switch to the upsize one?
female staff: i thought you say you don't want to upsize? (translated from how she spoke in mandarin)
my goodness. so this was how you treat the customers. a small matter you guys may think, but when she kept re-confirming with me (if i still want to upsize), i did not even bother to look at her... and just kept on shaking my head.
with this kind of service, who needs it? do some reflection man.

what a day. when we're on our way to the destination, there was a car accident and we got stuck for like... almost 20mins. in 10mins, there seemed to be no change in the line... between both lanes. for once, i thought we were going to be late for the event.
it was touching to watch when my brother's name was being called, as he received his degree. however, i had to sit through out the ceremony while they read out all the names of the recipients.
took quite a number of photos today as well. asked my bro & sis to tag me with the photos, easier for me to upload also. heh. lazy mah... that's why.
and on the way home, there was ANOTHER accident on the lane. shucks. it was a bumpy ride, as the taxi-driver tried to switch from the current lane to another. it also resulted my sis being sick... and vomited in the end.

today i told him this, "i really don't wish to let u see me sulking everyday. i think there's only one way that you need not have to worry about me being upset anymore, 'cos you would be tired of it also."
at some point of time, there are too many small issues that's building up, and i think i would not be able to resolve it. i feel that it's unfair for you to always accommodate me, having to bear with my temper & etc. your patience, love & caring is too much for me to take. i feel guilty everytime i lose my temper at you, getting upset very easily over what you've said. i felt that you gave alot in this relationship, way more than i am. and i know you love me more than i do myself. still, i'm really sorry.
i really feel like crying now...

was searching randomly for the meaning "bed of roses", when the result also gave me the origins from a poet named Christopher Marlowe (The Passionate Shepherd To His Love). found the poem to be very meaningful & touching :))
Come live with me and be my love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
That valleys, groves, hills, and fields,
Woods or steeply mountain yields.
And we will sit upon the rocks,
Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks,
By shallow rivers to whose falls
Melodious birds sing madrigals.
And I will make thee beds of roses
And a thousand fragrant posies,
A cap of flowers, and a kirtle
Embroidered all with leaves of myrtle;
A gown made of the finest wool
Which from our pretty lambs we pull;
Fair lined slippers for the cold,
With buckles of the purest gold;
A belt of straw and ivy buds,
With coral clasps and amber studs:
And if these pleasures may thee move,
Come live with me and be my love.
The shepherds' swains shall dance and sing
For thy delight each May morning:
If these delights thy mind may move,
Then live with me and be my love.

to think that i was feeling happy yesterday. but today, somehow... things didn't turn out like the way i wanted. kinda spoilt the mood/atmosphere actually. definitely not because of that time of the month la. seems to me that it's happening almost every week. what to do? no one to talk to. vent my frustrations? that's going to be yet another bitch-fit session.
HOW?? it ain't easy to let go. neither do i want it to happen. but worst to worst, there's going to be a cool-off period :(
i still like you.

i realized something - i have not been to the movies for more than 6 donkey months. omg. how many movies i have missed during this period of time. frankly speaking, horror films are still my priority. sad to say, there weren't many (and scary enough) screening on the theatres. secondly, because of the price. tsk tsk. cinemas are the no.1 money-grabbers, i guess. i once told myself that it's more worthwhile waiting for the vcd to come out & rent it, rather than going out to watch it. and yes...!!! finally, a horror movie that i'm waiting to catch - final destination 4 in 3D. really can't wait though, heard that all the gore scenes will be in... which means... a REAL EXCITEMENT. ahhh. caught the last 3 instalments, they were pretty gross. lol. think they may be one of the best horror movie series in the US. anyone wanna watch together? :))
caught one of the news bulletin on channel 8. they were talking about this smile-testing machine in japan, whereby every morning workers have to sit in front of the computer to test whether their smile is passable or not. they were even graded (with marks) and the percentage that they should have reached. wah. interesting to hear that. also, the program was also used on cargo drivers to test if they were falling asleep. if found to be positive, there will be an alarm ringing to remind them. this is used to prevent accidents from happening.
dear just came back from malaysia this afternoon. gonna meet him tmr ❤
:D

just went to youtube and search on random videos of adam lambert. chanced upon this short interview clip about him being very candid (of his sexuality). and yes, he is gay. the truth is out. no more speculation. i guess he does have some kind of problems trying to say it. i mean, can some people really accept the fact that their idol (and maybe the winner for season 8) is homosexual?
click here for the interview with adam lambert.and another link with adam lambert being interviewed on the regis and kelly show.

my third successive post for the day. right now, i'm like... lying with my stomach down while blogging. having some random thoughts again.
i've been feeling very, very tired & sleepy for the past few months. at first, it may seems like it's because of work. but gradually, i don't think that's the case. even without that time of the month, i still experience mild stomach cramps every now and then. the doctor said that if it happened again, i got to consume the medicine immediately... if not the consequences might be very serious (such as leading to numbness etc). i can't even walk properly, and have to take long & deep breaths. somehow the problem won't go away... and to me, it has become like a time bomb. i don't know when it will happen again.
work had been fine for me... with the exception of one bloody idiot who seems to be OBSESSED with building up his happiness at the expense of the other colleagues. i bet he doesn't know the definition of the word "karma". when you want to malign someone, just think (before you do it) - the same thing will happen to you. how would you feel? you can't possibly push the blame to the others, and you yourself get away with it. it will only show that you are a person who GENERALLY LOVES to shirk responsibility. as for now, i will just do what i'm supposed to. it's useless talking to such an a******.
i wanted some time off from work. perhaps to go on a holiday?
