15th Of January

Phew... What a tiring day it is today.
Got up around 9am, then played Sudoku til it was 10:30am. Then came back my aunty from her morning jog. Had lunch then washed up to get ready to find a job. First, tried out three 7- eleven outlets. The first one said they want to see a letter from the principle (i was like WTF!!!), dump that one and headed to another outlet closer to the house, which said that another outlet really need another worker than them. So I left that outlet and headed to the other outlet that the second manager recommened. Arrived there, talked to the manager for awhile. When hope shined bright, I got rejected again. This time was cause of my age, since 7- eleven's in Singapore sell liquor and beer, and the legal age was 18 (WTF wats worst they count by burfdays, i m onli 17 then, BEYATCH!!!!). After all those time walking so far, I was so close in getting a job yet so far. After that I went to Jurong Point, which was a shopping mall at the Boon Lay MRT Station. Over there was even more disapointing, all the place I went to apply for a vacancy, kept giving the same reasons when they rejected. The first one was cause I am not local, second was because I was apply for a short term only, which is very troublesome for them since they need to get a work permit. Lastly was because of my age. Walked rounds and rounds at the mall (its actually an L or a V shape) until me poor leg were tired out. Went back to Clementi MRT Station, then headed back home (i actually got lost on the way home from the station). Arrived home with a super worned out body. Took a bath and then came online. The Rockstar was online that time, so as Drummer 5. Chat with The Rockstar awhile then he went off, then started chatting with Drummer 5. Which I then found out that The Rockstar is already in Singapore, so as Muse, which Drummer 5 wanted me to steal some poster at the consert (tads crazy, i dont even noe singapore and d consert is 2nite also ROFL). After chatting and laughing, I had to continue searching for a job on the CATS Classfied, which was the classfied section in the paper. Search and search and search til I've got really bored, then I started to read One Piece. Had dinner then continue to read, while checking out on the phones until now. Maybe I am gonna get myself a "Nokia N72 Music Edition" or a "Nokia N73 Music Edition" or maybe a "Nokia N91 Music Edition" (I said "maybe" ok?). So thats how today turned out to be, that's right time is still moving really slow. Anyways this is Gene signing off at 10:29pm, 15th Of January. Good Night and Happy 18th Birthday to Amir Aiman (u can watch porn legally now, I'm proud of u dude hehehe)

14th Of January...

Fourth day and yet still no good news with my job hunt, here in Singapore. Time seriously is moving really slow for me here. Now let me get back to my report on what happened today. Got up around 8:45am, and wondered around the house up and down, I know like a mad person (its really boring in d house lar). A little while later, my aunty and uncle got up, and asked me what was I going to do today. As usual my answer was "I dunno", and with that answer, I ended up following them to their old apartment (or may b i shud say new apartment since they r gonna shift there again). Since I was there, I helped them clean the place up a little. When I was done, I thought that it was more or less around 3 to 4pm like that, instead it was only 1:30pm (how frustratin can tad get). Steven and his wife came a little while later, with Mc Donalds. So we all had lunch there. After lunch I headed back here on my own. I actually plan on going for a walk around the area, but instead I cancelled my plan cause to is Sunday (n my bro normally go back 2 his hostel on sundays on weeks tad he goes home). So chatted with him a little, while finding out for jobs and information for the papers and the internet. Finally when I got bored, I started to read manga, and that was at 8pm. Everyone then came back from the other apartment an hour later, this was the first time I met Tony (my other cousin) and and his wife (which I dunno how to spell her name too), during this trip. Had dinner together, and then they went off to IKEA, then back to their own apartment. Well so far that was what happened, I guess I'll end my post for today. So this Gene signing off at 10:26pm, 14th of January 2007. Good Night but I'm not sleeping yet, hehehe~~~

Hilo again...
Don't really feel like posting today since there was really nothing much that I did today, other than waking up, going to the hawker stall to take home a pack of chicken, which actually cost more than RM5 (so expensive.... got heart ache ar.....), sending an e-mail to Raffles International and Shines Education (but still no reply yet), checking out the classfied if there is any jobs available for me and then lastly reading comics on internet. So that was actually what I did today (finally d shortest post ah kakaka).Eventhough the post is short, the day itself actually felt super-duper long. Hope I find a job soon~~~
Well I guess thats about it, this is Gene signing out at 10:03pm, 13th of January 2007. Good Night & Sweet Dreams...

12th Of January!!!

Hello fellow blog reader~~
Guess what? This is my 20nd post on this blog. I know, I know, "congrats" to me :D
Anyways I'll get back to my today's post then, today is my second day staying in Singapore. A day felt like I've been away from home for a week already. Time seems to be moving so slow for me. Oh well, I just have stand it until I get a job, by then hope that my life will speed up a little. Well then, today I got up at 8:45 since Aunty Bee Lee woke up, I was actually still tired. On the account, that I had a hard time trying to get some sleep. This was mainly because it was super cold a night and I didn't have a blanket, I wasn't use to the bed, and lastly, because I was away from home. Got up and wash up, then went downstairs (btw i stay on d 6th floor of an apartment), got into my ride (yup d white Benz) and headed to IMM Mall. It was about a 10 minute drive from the apartment. By the way, have you since some high tech parking areas in Singapore? At IMM Mall, the car parking lots have a small little light above it which turns red if there is a car parked on that lot (it makes finding a car park much more easier, all sumone nid 2 do is 2 look out 4 any lots to have a green lite). Walked around at IMM Mall, we actually arrive there kinda early, cause lots of shops were still close. Walked around while waiting for the shops to open. After walking around for a while, my uncle and aunty brought me to the cafeteria. Then my uncle gave me 10 bucks, I was like "ok~~ wat 2 order". Then I ordered some chinese noodle dish, which pretty much taste like crispy noodles dipped in cantonese style sauce. As I ate, I felt more and more guilty. First of all the noodles costed SG$4, which was still in my capability or budget. But then SG$4 equals to more than RM8, then my thoughts were "OMG!!! more than 8 bucks 4 a stupid bowl of noodles ar............ holy *BEEP*". Feeling guilty, I didn't order any drinks. After the meal, my aunty asked me to go around to look for jobs. With no where to run, I went to all the shop to find if there were any vacancy for me. Almost all the shops that I asked for a job kept turning me down. First of all was because I am not local, secondly was because I am too young and thirdly was because they are looking for people who can work for a longer period. Finally, only two shops only let me fill up the form, which was Giant as a cashier and Long John Silver. (yar laugh all u wan!! try comin here n find a job then) Then after that my aunty and me, took the free shutter bus from the mall to the Clementi MRT Station just to get to know where to get off. When we arrived at the station, my aunty asked me to test my luck at the Mc Donalds there. With A little luck, they were short handed of workers. So I hope they would call back. Before I forget to tell you all, I already got myself a sim card, but I forgot whats the number. Then after that, we went to Ginza Plaza. They didn't have a high tech car park though. I only asked Mc Donalds and KFC, but both also got turned down. At Ginza Plaza, a few shop sells Nintendo DS at the price of SG$235 for the console only, SG$285 for the console and a game, and a game alone cost SG$55 per game. The console here are more cheaper then Malaysia but the games are more expensive. After that we headed home. After my late lunch, I took a nap. Since I was very tired. Got up at 5pm, and used the computer for my personal daily check ups. Then came dinner, and after that I head to my bed to check out the career guiding book which my uncle bought for me. At 10pm, came back out to use the computer to update my blog.
That was how today turned out to be, it has been raining since yesterday non stop. I want to list down my daily status but I have nothing to report on. So I guess thats it for this post, well this is Gene signing off at 11:15pm, 12th of January. Good Night and Sweet Dreams~~~

11th Of January....

Hilo~~
First and foremost I would like to apologize to all my fellow blog readers for not being able to issue any post for a long time. Secondly I would like to wish you all a "Happy New Year" and I hope that you all will be able to forefill all your new resolutions, eventhought I know that it is a little to late...
Now lets put all the resolution stuff away and focus back on to what happened today. So today I had to get up a little early cause I need to catch the bus to Singapore. Left the house at 8am, then dropped my grandmohther and my mother off at the hospital, and headed to Pudu Raya. Arrived there at 9am, then my father asked to go and have breakfast with him at a "mamak" stall, since it was still kinda early. Sat down ordered a "milo ais" and a "roti telor", then my father started talking to me about the things that I need to do along he way to singapore but I wasn't really focused that time. At 9:45am, I went to a few shops to scout out a few comics. In the end, I only ended up with to comics which is "One Piece" or also known as "Budak Getah" in Malay, chapter 37 and 38. At 10am, headed down to Platform 11, which was the Causeway Link's platfrom. 10:13am the doors of the bus opened, got in with my father and talked awhile. At the end of the conversation, I hugged my father and then he got off the bus. At that moment I realised that, its gonna be a long time until I meet everyone again. As the bus started moving, tears started coming out of my eyes. It was then 11am of the 11 of January, the moment which mark the start of my journey, and the first time I embrack on a trip for long time. The bus that I ride on only had 4 passengers only (beat tad FREE SITTING YAY!!!) Anyways, started of with reading my comics, then listening to some songs while eating the home made sandwich and lastly playing Sudoku was what I did the whole journey. Along the way, my mother, Darth Vader and Garfield called. At the first checkpoint, which is in Johor, I just went through it normally, then came the second checkpoint, which I had a little problem. I had to queue up so long, since in receptionist was so slow in doing her job. Then at the inspecting point, my luggage had a little problem, that made the officer to check my bag (i guess it is coz they saw a weird piece of metal tru d detector), the item that made tem checked my bag was my belt. Going back to the bas, I thought that I was the late one, and it turned out that one of the passenger (a chinese woman, and she smokes... hope she dies early hehehehehe) was not there. The bas driver then went to look for her, but he came back after awhile saying that he cannot find her and decided to leave without her. On the bas, another passenger which was a "mak cik" asked me to lend her my phone since her's cannot call out, so as usual, me being the good samarinthan, I lent her my phone (oh boy my bill is gonna be so high.... Dads gonna get me for tiz....). Finally, it was 3pm, and I arrived at the IMM mall MRT station which was where the bas stopped. Auntie Bee Lee, my aunt, was already waiting for me. She then called Uncle Jin to come ad pick me up, after awhile a white benz stopped in front of me (alrite my ride hehehehe). Got in and headed to their place, along the way we passed by a few school. I kinda notice that all the schools had different uniforms (how cool is tad?). Got off and went to the house. Prepared the bed that I am suppose to slepp on (i tell it more like a spot than a room, its sumthing like Harry Potter's room in the 1st episode, remember under d staircase, but mine wasnt under a staircase la). Feeling disapointed, at least I'm a little greatful that I had a roof over my head to protect me from the rain. Which was pouring ever since this morning. Search through the classfied section, as ask by my auntie. At 7pm, Steven (aka my cousin) and his wife (i dunno noe how 2 write her name....) came back from work. Thats when my searched ended, then I took my shower and had my dinner. After dinner, uncle Jin fixed up the computer. Thats when I'm able to chat with friend, check my mail and update my blog....
So I guess thats about it, I've got nothing else to report... cause I am really tired since I never slept in the bus. So this is Gene signing off at 10:41pm, 11th of January 2007. Good Night and Sweet Dreams with my new quote "I'm in Singapore baby.... Manyak Syusah orh..."
