it's been a while from my last post. been a little busy from last friday onwards...so sort of trying to rest (a lot) and catch up with the stuff i have to do.

worked for a three day IT bazaar thing in CK Tangs last friday. Everything went quite smoothly...just that the event perhaps didn't turn out to have a very good response at the start...

at first the event was opened only to visa card holders (was it platinum and above?)...but the crowd response...maybe it's because it's only a friday afternoon...

so the privilege of having such visa cards mean that you are entitled to shop in this allocated area and buy various IT products with discounted prices (coughs and clear my throat) using your card.

soon it was 6pm and they suddenly opened to the public. so for the second day and third day the guys from Tangs have to open up to the public with the discounted prices to everyone...

-.-

i wonder what will those card holders who bought something on the first day think of this. perhaps they wouldn't care much about that too but...oh well. this issue is very debatable.

the good thing was that my friend worked with me through those three days. we chatted and joked around quite a lot (because we don't have to promote at all unless approached by customers) and didn't really care about the sales...

but through him i was able to reflect on quite some issues and my plans after ns...hopefully we can keep in contact in the near future.

next thing...i should say is a piece of good news. one of my good old friend (that same guy who fancied that girl bound for further studies at UK) is starting think properly at least...haha. majority of the praises should go to the club cliq he is close to now...they really discussed the relationship with the girl with him and has more or less been persuaded before he approached boss character (and that's me! because i have already told one of the guys beforehand that i will be the bad guy for this issue) for advice.

well i don't have to say much to let him understand my point. though he complimented that my opinion is on the general scope of the issue instead of pin-pointing the details, his personality flaws etc. which helped him more but i feel that if he doesn't accept the details then he couldn't have seen the bigger picture i tried to depict to him.

well i certainly think that it's a good start for him...not too late.

then off they went to genting for three days two nights! sobs...

so envious of them...but i rather save up now...even if it's just a mere S$150++.
but it also triggered me thinking on where to go for my uni graduation trip...hong kong? japan?

friends' birthdays coming up...one of them is receiving a ipod touch for her 21st birthday...cool.
one my friends asked me what do i want for my birthday and i was like...huh? asking me for my birthday gift? though i don't really like it this way but apparently nothing is on my mind now...

but my mother is right. it's better than they buying something that i might not like later. sighs. how i wish i can tell them i don't want anything. sounds stupid huh? after paying up for the rest of the gifts and not expecting something back...but i just don't like the idea of asking...

and how i wish i can really be that greedy to have that for my birthday gift...i can carry on daydreaming then.
