i had a pretty restful off day tadie. in fact, i haven't had a restful off day in a long time. haha. but actually, i'd rather go out. home is so boring that i have nothing else to do but sleep, and there's a limit to how much sleeping you can do in 24 hours, which explains why i drifted awake round bout 1115 just now. and i can't muster enough energy to start playing the urbz again.
i was so scared abt the stupid checkup, which was this morning. and i almost got off at the wrong stop. but i had the common sense to verify with the driver, so thank God for that. and i spent the entire checkup with this girl i met in the bus, so it wasn't that bad at all. and when i got home, more sleeping for me. haha.

i got in to work today at 1150, or thereabouts, and took my time getting ready in the storeroom. then Jessica popped in and said, "eh, you see who's here already!" for some mad reason i thought it was the new sup, and, out of curiosity, i just went out to take a peek. and at the same moment, the dashing man at table 31 looked up. guess who?!?!?! MDM! i wanted to faint. but instead, i just gasped and escaped back to the storeroom. haha. he stayed for around 15 minutes or so, doing the paperwork. it was SO great. he is SO great. sigh. and i was doing cashier, so while i was counting the money he was leaving, and he actually said bye! like, really cheerily! ah he's just amazing.
and now i'm poring over this teeny map of my soon-to-be school, trying to figure out how to get to the UHWC tomorrow.
i have THREE 12-11s this week. tadi, lusa and sunday. but it's all good, cos Bun's 12-11 on sunday too. yay.

well. i got my cert and my yearbook and some CD, at the price of 2 blisters, approximately 5ml of perspiration, a parched throat, 4 missed calls and $1.26 on my EZLink card. it's not like i look so great in the yearbook anyway. well. it's been done. one less thing to worry about.
the next thing to worry about will be the medical checkup this thursday. i'm gonna drink like, gallons of my 50% lemonade before i leave the hse, to ensure that i'll be able to pee. haha. but i mean, seriously. are they afraid we have diabetes, or that we take drugs or smthg?!?!
i was cashier today, it was so slack. i love being cashier. it's my favourite job, really, and i'm getting better at it. okay, fine, it was a slow day too. but it's still fun when it's busy. it's LESS fun, but STILL fun. anyway today during slack periods, i just stood there folding the latest fun sheets and doing origami with Azhar. haha.

so Baba and i had our last go at the unlimited scoops promo at MSQ. and the best part was my dark predictions that HE wouldn't be around didn't come true!!! ahh he's just so amazing. like, the dream man. my dream man. MDM. like, he smiles 80% of the time, and he's always so friendly and cheerful, it's very welcoming! sighhh.. why can't he be my RM? i'd request to work 12-11, 7 days a week man!
work wasn't too bad, despite the fact that i was about 10 minutes late. i was doing alfresco, and things were especially slow, since school started again today and all. so i had an easy time of it. oh and speaking of school, i have to trudge all the way down to bishan tmr afternoon to get my stupid cert. cheapos. why can't they just mail it?

hey.
i just want to stop at that, but fine, i'll go on. haha.
i watched Batman Begins the other night, it was great. but Christian Bale is kind of a now-he's-cute-now-he's-not guy. so that was pissing me off a little. but it's really eye-opening, cos i mean, the origins of Batman are not as widely known as, say, Superman's or Spider-Man's or even the PPGs. and.. now that i think about it, Batman has a special meaning for me cos it was Allif's alternate identity in primary school. haha. PLUS i have a huge crush on his [Batman's] successor, otherwise known as Batman of the Future.
and yest i hit the beach with Sya. it was great and all, with GGMs scattered here and there, but the presence of 3 yapping, UNLEASHED dogs really put a dampener on things. espesh when one of them bounded yappingly onto the mat, not 5 inches away from me. i screamed and banged into the pillar of the hut. in an alternate universe, i'd have kicked it to the next beach. but. reality bites. haha.
today was my long-awaited shift with Bun. but you know what? it wasn't all that great. for starters, when he arrived, he completely ignored me and settled himself at the next table, even though the other seat at my table was unoccupied. then he went in to punch his card, and when he came out, he resumed his antisocial seat. in fact, we didn't talk to each other for the first half-hour of work. isn't that sad? sigh. apaperlah. what's not meant to be, just WON'T happen no matter how hard you wish it to. and so another week will pass till this happens again.

hm. work. was. tiring. i was really very grumpy during closing. but it all worked out. and tmr's my off day, yay! ...but it's so packed with things to do that i don't think it'll serve the actual purpose of an off day. i mean, the next day i'm right back at work. but BUN will be working, yay! and i think i'll drop by work tmr and just have a look at him. haha. excuse my kegilaan, but i haven't seen him for a full week!
penat sey. i shd really be sleeping now.
and i don't WANT to go to uni. i'm really comfortable with my work-6-days-a-week, bum-at-the-beach-once-a-week life. can i just do this forever?

so. the CCD was this malay guy in a big white shirt and wearing a helmet. at first he wasn't even a C(ustomer), he was just C(ute). he dashed past the storefront and up the escalator (in the helmet), and even then i could tell he was cute, so i pointed him out to ShaSha. and then, 5 minutes later, he walks in! [by this time he's taken off the helmet, and is now carrying it.] so ShaSha calls out, "AIN!" and i dash to the cake area to help him select a cake. shortly after, a girl walks in and joins him, but don't worry people, it's his sister. he said so. anyway the [blackforest] cake was for his mom's 54th birthday. i should know, i packed it with tender loving care. Mr. Rahim offered to write "Selamat Harijadi Mak" on a white chocolate slab, but they were in a hurry. anyway. he's cute! -dies-
Filza dropped by with her mother and sister(s?), but other than that, it was an uneventful day.
ohyeah, and this afternoon i was almost "late" for work cos i was sorting through school stuff. or ex-school stuff, anyway. i can safely say tt some of the stuff was at least half a decade old! haha. i.e., sec one. and there was all kinds of junk: PBL shits, this old Kukup newsletter, hidden-away photographs and letters, and posters and page-cutouts of people like Prince William, Hayden Christensen and--get this--Scott Moffat! haha. anyway it all brought back memories, and i can't believe i almost let them all get thrown out. of course, i'm not saying there wasn't any stupid stuff that i'd rather curse into oblivion, but most of it was sweet old memories. DUSTY, sweet old memories. like my RGS planner which has since disintegrated into a cracked, crumbly mess of "leather". anyway i'm still not through with it all, so i guess i'll have to get back to it later this week. good luck to me.

ooh yest one of the cute regulars, a talldarkhandsome serani guy, came by. he's just so amazingly and undeniably handsome! and it turns out the bespectacled guy he always comes with is his colleague, not his brother, and the little girl is the daughter of the colleague. they're really close, TDH and the little girl. how cool yeah? okay, she's not that little, she's around 11-13, i suppose. haha.
it's a full moon tonight. very nice, but kinda blurry. i wonder why some calendars mark down full and new moons. i mean, who really wants to take note, right? [besides me, anyway.]
it was quite an easy day today, actually. Mr. Rahim was morning MOD, so it was all quite slack, and me, ShaSha and Liyana hung out in the fountain area stealing food. wahahaha. and i did night cashier with the AM cash, and everything tallied and stuff, it was great. haha. and the auntie saved me some rice and curry without me even asking. basically, everything went really well for me. and tomorrow i'm working at night, which means i can wake up late again! only 2 days till my off day. [and next week is another hell of a week, with two 12-11s, and only one day with Bun. again.]
oh. yes. i was just hit by a silly, yet logical "why-not?" thought last night: why can't cherry stems be edible? then i wouldn't have to pick them up off tables, or sweep them off floors. well. just a thought.

my legs are crying now. it was another shitty 12-11. but hey, at least i didn't have to do closing inside, which i'm eternally thankful for. and ALSO, i didn't have to do night cashier, cos the micros system decided to conk out at around, oh i dunno, 10pm?!?! so when i left at around 1130, poor Rafidah was still there trying to do closing.
of all nights for the computer to crash, it had to be the night where new girl was doing closing, alone. but at least it was a monday. and we had to make everyone pay in cash, leceh giler sial. one of my alfresco customers had to go withdraw cash and everything, i felt really bad and stupid.
it's only been 2 days without Bun around and already i feel something missing. but at least when he's not around, i don't get suaned. THAT's something.
Wenxing is leaving us this thurs to become the head chef at tampines. sedih sey. he's so nice, and he's so cute and funny, why can't he stay and the other chef go? sigh.

firstly, my mom's back!!! i'm SO happy. i was at the gate just now, thinking, only 2 more days till she comes back... and i opened the door and she was just sitting there. yay. no more mi mangkuk for me! or hangus garlic bread.
so. all the clothes that i kirimed my sister to buy are here. i have 2 new skirts, a brown corduroy one and this shitty khaki one which apparently cost $2. but don't tell my mom i think it's shitty. haha. okay, to me, long=shitty, and knee-length-and-below=long, so. yeah. and i have a dusty pink hoodie, a matching dusty pink tshirt, plus 2 new boxers. one is this cute red M&Ms one. loves it!
i'm more tired than usual, cos i did the 12-11 today, with more coming up tmr. i did cashier in the afternoon, and there was this beyond-cute guy picking up a cake. i remember seeing him reserve the cake on friday. and there he was, back. sigh. and i even have his telephone number. haha. but don't worry, i won't harass him or anything. it's just for.. memory's sake. haha.
there were so many cute boys today. like that little malay boy at table 1 who turned 7 today. he's all round and fair and chubby, and just very pinchably cute! i wanted to like, steal him and hide him away in the storeroom or smthg.
oh and Andee came by with his entire family! haha. cool.
sigh. i don't like working with the new girl cos she's too slow, and her biological systems do not agree with my nasal passages. also, she's weird and calls everyone "abang" or "kakak", even though she was born in 1986 too. which makes her logically older than me, since not many people my age are born after dec 20. and you know, that means it's "Abang Azhar", and "Abang Farhan", which really makes me squirm. but i think she's starting to see sense, cos just now she was trying to call Hannan and was at a loss for words/names. so. yeah.

i need to sleep. i just KNOW i won't be able to wake up tmr.
i did closing today after prolonged--and failed--negotiations with the other THREE people working inside. and then i started to cry. for no apparent reason. so i concluded, closing and me don't go together. cos the last time i did closing, i literally felt like crying also. merepek.
Fadhila came by to eat again, since this is her last day off before school starts. and i was talking to her at the cashier area before she walked in, then i turned around and saw Bun standing there, staring after her. she sat outside as usual, and i dunno if it was on purpose, but he took her order. then he asked me, "dier kerja mana ah? --asal biler aku gi dier takde? --nama dier ape ah? dier tinggal maner? --dier single tak?..aku dah lama single ah.." i swear, i wanted to cry. and i tried to be all casual and candid about it, but i have no idea if he could tell i was just burning inside. i mean, don't get me wrong, i loved having her there, and i went out a couple of times to chat to them [nasib baik tak kene marah for skiving]. but like i sadly told Diana later, "aku dier tak suka, kawan aku dier suka.." and she replied sagely, "tulah, like i said before, yang dekat dier tak nak, nak yang jauh.." well. apaperlah. Liyana asked, "so do you like him?" and i said, "can we just pretend i don't? it's easier that way." anyway today was the last day i get to work with him, he's off tmr, and he starts school this monday so basically, i won't see him till next sunday. let's see how i get through the week without him. maybe it'll help things in the long run. like, absence makes the heart grow cold.
the chinese pizza guy was working all day today. his name is.. well let's just say that it makes me want to change my name to Barbie. hahahaha.

i just kinda shopped till i dropped. and i broke rule #4 in my budget page: no unplanned spending. this is horrible. i mean, okay, i got my freshbox t-shirt [planned spending], and Hannan's birthday present, and that was all just fine and dandy, but then i went and got a The Nightmare Before Christmas bag, and a fake butterfly tattoo [i aspire to be the "butterfly tattoo right above your navel/belly button's pierced too" girl in Slow Down], AND a free-sample-not-for-sale vial of some Escada perfume. i almost got Britney's Curious too. [it smells pear-ish, fyi.] sheesh. and then i almost bought a dangly navel stud for $25. but thankfully, almost doesn't count.
anyway we essentially walked all the way from bugis to OG and back. in my flat white sandals. so i'm really tired now. oh and i encountered a blast from the past, in the form of good ol' Madaminah. hahahaha.
i worked 12-5 today, and the CCD was this tall guy with dark hair and rosy skin, prolly anglo-chinese. he's also aussie, i think. he had fish and chips [which i happened to have after work, haha], and played with his sister's baby. oh he's so amazingly handsome, i really hope he comes back! and he also settled the bill with his card, so i managed to find out his name. heh. let's just say that his initials are JLT. haha.

i hate it when plans are cancelled on me. and i hate that every freaking time i look forward to something, it ends up cancelling out on me.
anyway. work was okay. we finished quite early, it was great. i love finishing early. oh and i got new hazel-coloured contacts at WS before work tadie.
argh i'm sorry but the new girl is really annoying me!

i had quite a good day at work. i prefer it when Bun doesn't have Azhar around. he's much nicer then. haha. hm and i got to eat actual chicken baked rice today, cos it was a wrong order. loves it! well. apaperlah. that's all the news for today.
oohyah i watched the last bit of When Harry Met Sally, for the hundredth time, and i actually cried at the new year's party scene. unlike Ili, i adore Meg Ryan movies.

Harry Burns: I've been doing a lot of thinking, and the thing is, I love you.
Sally Albright: What?
Harry Burns: I love you.
Sally Albright: How do you expect me to respond to this?
Harry Burns: How about, you love me too.
Sally Albright: How about, I'm leaving.
Harry Burns: I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
Sally Albright: You see? That is just like you, Harry. You say things like that, and you make it impossible for me to hate you.

sigh.

i forgot to add yest that sunday's CCD was this cute malay guy, with dyed light brown hair, and big eyes, and dark brows. he's apparently around the same age as me, and my favourite part was when he came in pushing his 2-year-old sister in her stroller. [my second favourite part was when he settled the $97++ bill personally, using his NETS.] he had sirloin steak AND rodeo wings AND a sarsaparilla. oh he's so incredibly cute, the tommy kind of cute, and that kind of cute is--well--timeless. haha. well anyway i shirked my cashier duties to serve Mr. Timelessly Cute, whose name, btw, is Din. haha. cos his dad went, "nak apa, Din?" and turned to him. aaaaahh.

so today was Hana's beach party. sorry to sound less than thrilled, but i'm just very VERY tired. my eyes are lelaping of their own accord, and i'm almost powerless to stop it. so i'll try to make this fast, then maybe i can catch the 2 a.m. Friends. haha.
omigawd i'm just really malas to type! okay, we tanned, i slept in the shade to Milah's cool CDs [all R&B, rap, hip-hop.. loves it!], and we rendam2ed in the disgusting water. i sat at the water's edge watching Hana, Milah and Sya swim over to this teeny isle/island/block of sand with accompanying trees, and was invited by the malay guys a couple of metres away to join in their water games. haha. they were part of a motley crew of chinese people ranging from the ages of 19-44, so we were trying REALLY hard to figure out how they were all connected. and we finally came to the satisfying [and accurate!] conclusion that they were McDonald's crew. haha. mystery solved!
hm what else did we do? yes Sya and i walked to New Zealand Natural, where i finally got to see the skimming mats in action, after like, 4 years. and where there was a cute malay guy at the next table. smoking. [but of course.] haha. anyway, let's just say i've found my spot. so, can't wait for the saturday after next.
urgh. and we passed by one of those seaside pubs, where this group of 34-year-olds quipped, "thirsty?!?!" please. if you're 34, do NOT try to talk to girls not even of modern marriageable age.
after that we had dinner at someplace in boat quay. i won't elaborate, cos it was just such a painful experience for us all. haha. then we hung out at the esplanade [the sort of mini-amphi where they have public gigs], then we finally made our painful way home.
i was talking rather loudly to Filza on the train home, about uni stuff, work stuff, miscellaneous stuff ah. then as we were reaching pasir ris, the malay guy next to me turned to us and said, "excuse me, i couldn't help but eavesdrop on your conversation.." and i SWEAR, my blood froze in my veins just about then, cos i thought he wanted to scold me for talking too loudly. [while Filza thought he was gonna scold us for laughing at his fat friend who'd been sitting opposite us a few stops ago.] anyway, he proceeded to explain that he'd just graduated from NUS, ..., and basically he just wanted to encourage us to attend the FOC. haha. well, i was just still in shock, so all i can say is, i'm just glad he didn't scold us. he was a big guy, and all, so it was very scary when he said his opening words.
anyway. i'm finally home after the long day, so nite.

i just watched Saturday Night Live for the first time, and it's SO cool! no one told me how great it is! so i'm gonna watch it every week from now. yay. another form of Saturday night entertainment for me.
so my mom left for perth this morning. and i'm gonna be surviving on takeout for the next ten days. haha. i brought up a few topics with her just now. ALL of which she gave resounding "no"s to. i want to take a motorcycle license. NO, it's dangerous. i want to go to London. NO, it's expensive. i want to get a hostel room. NO, it's expensive AND potentially dangerous, and my sister didn't get one till her last semester. sheesh.
there's a cute new pizza guy. yes i know i say that like, every month or something. but this one's different. he's chinese, for one. i never thought i'd ever see a chinese pizza delivery guy. and he's just cute ah, with a friendly face, and cool too. not like some of the toot ones, with their shirts tucked in and everything. tak main sey. haha.
well. 12-11 tmr. but other than that, this coming week is really one to look forward to. yay.

CCDs today were a couple of cute CD guys. in case anyone doesn't know by now, i. LURVE. budak CD. i dunno, they just look really good in uniform, and especially in the red rhino or whatever that vehicle is called. loves it! haha. so anyway. yes. two malay CD guys. one was wearing full uniform, i was totally melting as i took their order. and the other was wearing half-uni, and TOTALLY reminded me of righthandside. they ordered a combo each, and changed the ice-cream flavour to SCC. haha. i was like, "Kak, budak CD tu cute sey.." and she was like, "sorry sikit eh, they're mine!" and i replied, "come on lah, ader duer pe! you take one, i take one!" haha. i "took" the one in full uniform, and she took the righthandside one. i thought they were gonna stay a while, but i think they got a msg to get back to the fire post or smthg, cos they started wolfing down their food and asked for the ice-cream to be packed. while Kak Nores, Diana and i scrambled to settle their bill and get their ice-cream. haha. funn-ay. i even used my bare hands to scoop up the dry ice. and i only do that for the most important people. haha. cute ah. Kak Nores was like, "damn i should have asked for his number!" haha. let's hope they come back.
Bun was working, which i'm beginning to treasure more and more everyday cos he starts school on the 20th. [God i just realised that's the same as Ex-Con going back into the service! the cruel irony.] anyway, after work he mentioned that he doesn't have a girlfriend, and Diana sed, "tulah, kau ngan Azhar same aje--yang dekat tak nak, nak carik yang jauh2.." and Mortified Me started walking like a kilometre ahead. and Bun replied, "aper? dekat? siape yg dekat?" oh God. nampak sah eksyen bodoh sey. and both Kak Nores and Diana hinted even MORE heavily, it was just buat malu siak. well. he has one day to forget about it. [he's off tmr.] so let's hope he does. haha.
my mom's leaving for Perth tmr, and i have NO idea how i'm gonna deal with it for the next 10 days. any moms-for-hire available? willing to pay, ermm, 50 bucks flat fee. haha.

when i got to work [early] today, Kak Nores stared at me, and after a few minutes, remarked that i looked pretty. i received the compliment with little enthusiasm. i mean, it wasn't as if anyone was around [besides Azhar, he SO does not count!] to appreciate how i looked right? cos Bun was supposed to be working, but he was on MC. sedih siak.
CCD was this guy at table 41 with his guy friends/colleagues/fellow NSmen [?]. we all thought he was manjen, skali he started talking on the phone in malay, and Kak Nores and i stared at each other in shock. haha.
i hate that i don't want to ever leave the house anymore. and i hate that i dread coming home too. and i hate that my eyes dart nervously left and right, and that i now view motorcylists with apprehension.

i just had THE most harrowing experience. so i'd just like to thank Shafa and my parents for being so accomodating.
and totally unconnected to abovementioned experience was this nightmare i just had last night. i was doing opening [at work], and i was setting up the tables in the alfresco area, testing them carefully to make sure they were stable. while doing this, i noticed that Azhar and Bun were standing there, making fun of me. Azhar was making some wisecrack about what i was doing, and Bun was laughing in response. and naturally, i was hurt. but i pretended to be all light and breezy about it. then we had briefing at table 44, and somehow my mom was there. after the briefing, i broke down and told my mom what happened with Azhar and Bun. and she got really angry and told me, right off, to quit my job. and i was begging her not to make me do that, like, "i don't WANT to quit! don't make me quit!" and crying and crying. i was crying so hard, and so passionately, that i woke up to find that i was actually crying. oh God. how. horrible.
went for lunch at T2 with Baba. i ate SO much. i had the crayfish pasta with spicy oriental sauce, shared a fries, the EL dessert, and half a coit tower. giler eh? but Fadhila was working, so i got my 10% discount, cos she told her AM i'm from WS. cool. and what was cooler, was that they didn't charge us for the fries. i'm not sure why. and Fadh doesn't know either. ohwell. takper. they were over-fried anyway.
CCD was.. haha, let's just say he's too old and too happily married for me. but he has SUCH a great smile, and he's just so incredibly handsome! when i saw him, i gasped and went right to the cashier counter for a better look. he bought sea soup again. and he'd just finished work, judging by his crisp white shirt. AND he remembers me! haha. he smiled right at me and said something or other about buying takeaway.
Ex-Con is back on mainland, at least until the 20th. he gets his posting on the 17th. wow i still miss him, can you believe it? sometimes i look at the fountain and i can still see him standing there with the mask under his chin. and i still remember what he used to smell like, and when some tak-guna customer wearing his perfume walks in, i feel like kicking him out. how long has it been? belum dua bulan eh. but it feels like so much longer. maybe cause a lot has happened since, yet i still haven't forgotten him.

[luper nak ckp, yest Baba's ex came with what looked like his entire family. haha. i love the fact that they're not the tudunged family all my other friends seem to have. makes my family seem more normal, blonde hair, short skirts and all.]
anyway. i was in the train home just now, falling asleep. and when i sadar-ed, i noticed this SAS boy standing infront of me. he was tall, wearing glasses, and looked vaguely familiar. i would have left it at that, but he kept staring and STARING at me, in an almost angry way. then. realisation hit. he's one of my train buddies from last year. of course, by "train buddies", i mean the people i used to see in the morning, when i took the train to Buona Vista. not that i said hi to them, or smiled at them, or anything. well anyway, i'm glad he remembers me and all, but is it necessary to stare in such a hostile manner? i wanted to smile at him, but well, i was scared he would bite so i just stared stonily back. haha. he grew so much taller in less than a year, and he's even grown into his angular looks! haha. maybe i'll bump into him again. and maybe this time i'll just smile. i have at least 2 more years of chances [he's in sec 2 this year]..
went to Sentosa with Sya and Shafa just now, just to tan and bum around. i wasn't having too great a time of it, due to circumstances beyond my control, but it was okay. and there were NO cute guys! and they were all manjens, not a single lumpur in sight! i even walked up and down the beach, alone, to look for them, but they were just nowhere to be found. i was REALLY disappointed. well. maybe it'll be better next time.

okay i had a REALLY bad day overall. i swear. so i'll just try to forget that instead of writing about it.
CCDs today ROCKED! haha. there were 5 malay guys who came in and had ice-cream. and by a stroke of luck, i happened to be doing hosting at that exact moment, so i gave them menus and all that, and i did everything else, like serving their ice-cream, and getting the bill. and they were in a silly mood [or maybe they're always silly], like when Crystal said, "welcome to Swensen's!" one of them replied, "welcome.." haha. cute. and then when one of them ordered a topless 5, he said, "topless 5.." and mimed taking off his shirt. and "sticky chewy chocolate--but not too sticky.." i was trying SO hard to supress my laughter. and practically all of them were cute! the cutest was wearing blue, and he had straight, gelled hair, and cool pierced ear(s) with earrings on. but he had to leave early, unfortunately. and the second cutest was fair and big-eyed, and with a cool goatee. [he was the one who had the topless 5.] ah cute sey, they totally brightened up my otherwise-horrible day.. haha.

the day started out so horribly, i was prepared for a huge malapetaka at work. thankfully, none hit. haha.
lotsa CCDs, all at table 7. there were these 2 cute little boys. i think they're malay, but very exotic-looking. ranging from 2-4 years of age. the younger one is SO cute, he's like a mini rugger, and if his parents had left him alone for one second, i'd have stolen him and brought him home with me. SO cute. and he kept putting on this Hi-5 cap that was too big for him. aaah cutenyer! the other CCD was this indonesian guy, i think, with his girlfriend and another couple. he's short, but seriously handsome. haha. as Diana said, "takleh angkz!" haha.
Fadilah came to eat with her friend, so i had fun talking to them. and i think i'm gonna return the favour and eat at T2 next week. i'll try the claypot specials this time! yay.
i dunno why they keep teasing me about Hannan. it's SO annoying. just cos we like to talk to each other, and we always eat together [cos we're the only ones who eat leftovers, haha], and he helps me light the tealights when i'm doing alfresco. bodoh siak. i firmly believe, now, that i DO have a "suan-me-please!" face.

hm. i watched Dwidarma at RJ today. it was really good, i thought. i really liked the second one, it was SO funny. Shamiah makes such a great bimbo! haha. oh they were all funny and it was all good..
and i received comments about my hair. Hafiz claimed it looks like Matin's unruly brown-blonde wig. but Nadia and Yus love it. so. haha i dunno. actually i'm beginning to like it alot myself. it's different [from my old hair], that's for sure. and at least i don't look like i have tiger stripes on my head anymore. haha. but it's so sad, my hair's all dry now, when it used to be lushly un-dry underneath my fingers. i really hope it recovers soon. yuck it feels like straw now, instead of hair. man i really didn't mean to do this to it.
well. it's back to work tmr. hope Bun's working.

ah. kenyang. my resolve to start dieting has, well, dissolved after seeing all the cool new promo items they have. giler bodoh. tonight i had the spicy chunks of boneless chicken, raisin rice, chilli fries, 2 scoops of raspberry crumble ice-cream, and a coupla prawn dippers.
speaking of which, my new favourite ice-cream flavour is Raspberry Crumble! it also happens to be the Flavour-of-the-Month. it's vanilla, i think, with a hint of raspberry, and there are generous bits of actual crumble [you know, the yummy breadcrumbs in like, apple crumble] inside. it's crazy delicious [and prolly twice as fattening as any other ice-cream flavour]! but really! gotta have it man!
CCD was this man who bought takeaway. i swear, he's like the handsomest guy in the world. he's tall, and not-too-skinny, not-too-broad, and just very good-looking with relatively big eyes, and a great nose and a just a hint of a tan. unfortunately, he's also married. haha. but wow. a cute chinese guy. how often do you get those?
i had quite a horrible 24 hours before i started work today. [long story. but suffice to say that i've learnt my lesson, and i am SO not ever gonna mess with the chemical makeup of my hair again. i am also never gonna visit any salon/stylist other than Peter at Storm Hair.] so i wasn't in the best of moods. dahlah tu, i was virtually the only malay, and they kept talking in mandarin and other dialects. how. annoying.
it's my off day tmr. was planning to spend the earlier part of it bumming around at home, but i received a much better offer from Shafa, so i think i might just take her up on it.

heyhey. i worked the incredibly inhuman 12-11 shift today. but Rafidah had it worse--she worked 9-11 out of pity for me. anyway. it was SO tiring, cos both lunch and dinner were busy. usually lunch is pretty slow. but nooooooo. it was crazy, and by 730 i was taking 2-second squatting breaks in shadowy corners.
but it wasn't ALL bad. we had the briefing for the june-july promo, complete with all 7 dishes. and after that we got to eat said dishes. so aku aper lagie, berhari rayelah. plus it was my break right after that, so i carried out everything that they couldn't finish, and devoured it all. okay, no not really. Umar and the latest addition [yet another Farhan], ate quite alot too. haha. i dunno if it's just me, but the new Farhan is kinda cute too. but 17, unfortunately. anyway he seems quite nice, although yet another smoker, and he also eats like a trash compactor. and we have a new girl, who's starting full-time this weekend.
and in the evening there were 3 CD guys who walked past, so i was like pointing them out excitedly to Shasha, and they saw, and apparently one of them waved. haha. buat malu je. but whatever. like i'm ever gonna see them again. ooh and there was a cute talldarkhandsome policeman who walked past with 3 other colleagues. ah, guys in uniform.
oh ugh, hate to end this off on a shitty note, but we have an official Swensen's CD to be played, and it has a pretty good mix of recent hits and dulu-dulu stuff, but that's not the point. the point is that they have a Swensen's jingle [not unlike the Mac's one], which they managed to selit after every few songs. how. totally. mortifying.
