Episode 65: New Years Eve edition

Are you people ready for 2009? But first, how was your 2008? Must be pretty eventful right? Some good memories and some bad ones as well of course. Anyway, have you made your new years resolution yet? Why do people have come up with such things anyway? Its like making an empty promise to yourself. Will you be able to keep it? I don't believe in such things. I'm more of a "right here, right now" kind of guy. Living for the moment is much better than any new years resolution anybody can come up with. Maybe I'm being a little bit over-critical over here...

Actually, I do have a new years resolution. My new years resolution is to give those people who gave me problems last year a second chance. So right now I'm forgiving everyone and I'm not holding any grudges with anyone!

Happy New Year everyone!

Somebody lost his phone while I was working yesterday. Damn unlucky for me! Not only that, the customer even made a police report lah seh... Alamak!! So later in the evening the boys in blue dropped by the store to ask me some questions. So troublesome I tell you. Everyone was looking at me as if I was the one who stole the phone! I'm INNOCENT I tell you! I'm NOT a CRIMINAL!!! Aaaarrgggh.......

I can't believe I had to buy a new mop for the store! Why me? I didn't break the mop, someone else did... Whats up with that? I was just making fun of Diana the other day for having to buy a mop for the other store and now its my turn... Basket!!! Well, at least mine was much cheaper than hers... Hahaaa!

You never know what you'll find in the trash. Like today, I found a note!

Episode 63: Goodbye peace and quiet...

After a week or so without having the manager around the store, she finally comes back. I'm not too excited about her return actually. And by the looks of it I'm not the only one not too happy about it... Personally, I think we did quite okay while she wasn't around. Plus, the AM was always around to make sure everything was running smoothly. I wonder what the manager did during her vacation. I heard it rained all the way non stop. Doesn't seem like a lot of fun to me.

A week ago, a visitor to my blog decided to post some very harsh criticism and comments. Before any more damage was done, I've deleted the comments. I'm all for freedom of expression but saying things which have no truth in them is not acceptable. So, "Phreaky Z", or whatever your name is, just who the hell do you think you are? Don't hate the player, hate the game!

We might always be found together but there is nothing going on between us. We're just friends who get along very well and that's about it. I'm sick of hearing the same comments over and over again everyday. I mean whats wrong? Could it be that someone I've known for a while is jealous of the attention that she's getting? I hope not...

Its almost the end of the month which means I have to plan a shopping trip for myself! Lots of stuff to get and 1 of them is a brand new shiny hand phone. So if you're free, come and join me! Its not so fun going all by myself...

Before I go, today's quote:
Those Are Guys With Dicks,
Not Guys With Dignity!

WHATEVER!

Episode 62: I miss...

Let me start off by saying that our Singapore national soccer team just lost to Vietnam in a very closely fought match at the National Stadium. They lost one nil. It was so disappointing... So close but yet so far... I was really hoping for a Singapore vs. Thailand final. Oh well... I can still dream about it...



Said goodbye to Kamariah this week. It was like a reunion for me to have her back well at least for a while... Everyone has their own opinion about her and I'm cool with that but I still respect her. She was my mentor when I first started out and I owe alot of what I know to her. Before she left, I asked for 1 last favour from her, just for old times sake...



Hidayah left me behind again. This is the second time she did it to me this week. Whats up with that? It seems like she's really close with the new Area Manager nowadays. Hmm... Talking about the Area Manager, I told her that I was not coming to work anymore. She just laughed it off. I told her I was serious but she told me to wait until the manager to come back to work. Oh great... she's also crazy!



I really miss working with the afternoon shift guys. I'm always working in the morning like everyday now! I'm so sleepy from having to wake up so early... I miss Dianah. She's always smiling. She has a beautiful smile. I miss talking to her about stuff. Even though we never agree on anything, its always fun working with her. I miss Helmi too. He's such a nice guy, much more nicer than me! Working with him is always an experience! Most of it funny ones... Hahaa...



END!

61 Things Girls Don't Know About Guys.

1. Guys hate sluts even though they have sex with them!(oh yeah..you're not "popular" if you've slept with more than 6 guys..you're a HOE)
2. "Hey, are you busy?" or "Are you doing something?" ~ two phrases guys open with to stop from stammering on the phone.
3. Guys may be flirting around all day but before they go to sleep, they always think about the girl they truly care about.
4. Before they call, guys try to plan out a little about what they're gonna say so there aren't awkward pauses, but once he's on the phone he forgets it all and makes it up as he goes.
5. Guys go crazy over a girl's smile.
6. Guys will do anything just to get you to notice him.
7. Guys hate it when you talk about your ex-boyfriend or ex love-interest. Unless they're going for the let-her-complain-to-you-and-then-have-her-realize-how-wonderful-and-nice-you-are method.
8. A guy who likes you wants to be the only guy you talk to.
9. Boyfriends need to be reassured often that they're still loved.
10. Don't talk about your guy friends to your boyfriend.
11. Guys get jealous easily.
12. Guys are more emotional than they'd like people to think.
13. Giving a guy a hanging message like "You know what?!..uh...nevermind.." would make him jump to a conclusion that is far from what you are thinking. And he'll assume he did something wrong and he'll obsess about it trying to figure it out.
14. Guys are good flatterers when courting but they usually stammer when they talk to a girl they really like.
15. Guys hate asking parents for money to buy girls presents. So they come up with ideas like saving their lunch money for a week. But it never works because guys are always hungry so they end up asking the parents for money anyway.
16. Girls are guys' weaknesses.
17. Guys are very open about themselves.
18. It's good to test a guy first before you trust him. But don't let him wait too long.
19. Your best friend, whom your boyfriend seeks help from about his problems with you may end up being admired by your boyfriend.
20. If a guy tells you about his problems, he just needs someone to listen to him. You don't need to give advice.
21. A usual act that proves that the guy likes you is when he teases you.
22. Guys love you more than you love them if they are serious in your relationships.
23. Guys will brag about anything.
24. Guys use words like hot or cute to describe girls. We rarely use beautiful.If a guy uses that, he likes you a whole hell of a lot.
25. No matter how much guys talk about asses and boobs, personality is key.
26. Guys learn from experience not from the romance books that girls read and take as their basis of experience.
27. Guys worry about the thin line between being compassionate and being whipped.
28. Guys think WAY too much. One small thing a girl does, even if she doesn't notice it can make the guy think about it for hours, trying to figure out what it meant.
29. Guys seek for advice from girls not other guys. Because most guys think alike, so if one guy's confused, then we're all confused.
30. Any guy could write out a rulebook or advice book for flirting, but no guy can write out a book about relationships.
31. Try to be as straightforward as possible.
32. If the guy does something stupid in front of the girl, he will think about it for the next couple days or until the next time he spends time with the girl.
33. If a guy looks unusually calm and laid back, he's probably faking it and is spazzing inside.
34. When a guy says he is going crazy about the girl, he really is. Guys rarely say that.
35. When a guy asks you to leave him alone, he's just actually saying, "Please come and listen to me."
36. Guys don't really have final decisions.
37. If a guy starts to talk seriously, listen to him. It doesn't happen that often, so when it does, you know somethings up.
38. If your best guy friend seems to avoid you or is never around when you're with your boyfriend, he's probably jealous and likes you.
39. When a guy tells you that you are beautiful, don't say you aren't. It makes them want to stop telling you because they don't want you to disagree with them.
40. When a guy looks at you for longer than a second, he's definitely thinking something.
41. Guys like femininity not feebleness.
42. Guys don't like girls who punch harder than they do.
43. A guy has more problems than you can see with your naked eyes.
44. Don't be a snob. Guys can be intimidated and give up easily.
45. Everything in moderation. Put on makeup, wear perfume. Just not too much.
46. Guys talk about girls more than girls talk about guys.
47. Guys hate rejection, but they hate being led on even more.
48. If you are going to reject a guy, just do it. Don't say they are like a brother or just good friends, it just hurts even more. Tell them that you aren't interested in a relationship and they will respect you.
49. Guys really think that girls are strange and have unpredictable decisions and are MAD confusing but somehow are drawn even more to them.
50. A guy would give his left nut to be able to read a girl's mind for a day.
51. No guy can handle all his problems on his own. He's just too stubborn to admit it.
52. Not all guys are assholes. Just because ONE is a jackass doesn't mean he represents ALL of us.
53. We don't like girls who are too skinny.
54. We love it when girls talk about there boobs.
55. Always make sure you know what kind of stuff your getting into before making out with a guy ...like whether it's a one time deal or not ....
56. Believe it or not shy guys are the most easiest to talk to..it may not seem right but trust me they will start opening up like books after you just ask them questions about their lives and unnoticeable tell them about yours...
57. When a guy hits your butt it means that he wants you sexually
58. Even if they refuse it all guys are ticklish on the ribs..
59. Guys love neck rubs and if he lets you keep doing it ..it means that he really likes you or his neck really hurts...
60. Guys will test the waters to see how far they can get with you. Even if he doesn't intend to it will happen. Know how far it is you want to let him go and he will respect that...after you let him know a couple times.
61. When a guy sacrifices his sleep and health just to be with you, he really likes you and wants to be with you as much as possible.

Episode 61: Taking charge!

Just a few things to take note of...

I'm still new to the idea of being in charge but I'm trying my best... Lets just say its a work in progress. I wish people would cooperate a bit more... Luckily, Hidayah is there to help me out if shes around. I didn't ask for this so forgive me if I become a bit bossy...

I don't like the idea of making calls to other people regarding what time they're coming to work. Its totally pointless to me. But when I do, please pick up! Or at least reply my messages... Its the polite thing to do!

Quote of the week goes to the person who said that Kamariah will only scold the female staff only, not any of the male staff. How did this person come up with that idea I don't know. Sounds so bitchy! Someone please explain...

2 people tried to quit last week. And were unsuccessful... How do you expect to quit when the manager loves these 2 people... Her "favourites"... I have a better chance of going first before them!

I have to be less trusting of people. I must be careful with whom I say what to... Some people just can"t keep secrets.

Today I decided to hang out with a friend after work. We didn't know where to go but in the end we found ourselves at Changi Airport! It turned out to be a blessing as my friend hasn't been there for a while and she was quite excited. After visiting the various terminals via the sky train, we had our dinner at McDonald's. We spent the rest of the day there until we went back...

I think overall, it was a good day for me...

Good night!

Episode 60: Meeting the new Area Manager.

Yesterday, Mr. Sulaiman came to the store and introduced to everyone to the new area manager. I think her name was Salbiah or something like that. Nama punya classic, macam dari zaman P. Ramlee gitu... I mean who names her daughter Salbiah? Nonetheless, she was so bossy, so on the ball and so yah-yah papaya from what I see. She is so gonna regret taking over our store...

Just like the superhero Superman is weak to kryptonite, I'm also weak to certain things. Hey, I'm human okay, and everybody has weaknesses. For me, I think one of them is that I can stand to see a girl cry. I just cannot take it lah... I know I'm getting soft. But it ain't a pretty sight you know? Die-die I will pujuk her until she stops crying...

Okay gotta go.
I'm late for work!

Episode 59: Oh my god! Its Kamariah?!

So after days of speculating, it turns out that Kamariah is coming back to take over the store temporarily. Maybe I shouldn't be to surprised... Who else would take over this place right? My horoscope did say someone from my past would be making an appearance but who would have thought it was her.

So from the moment she entered the store and said hi to me, I was speechless... I don't know what happened to me. All I could do was smile, that's all. Hidayah who was working next to me must be thinking I was crazy... It was so awkward! I wish Farris was here...

Anyways, some birthdays are coming up and I have to decide whether or not I want to get them anything or not. Decisions... Decisions...

That's all for today.
Take care people.

Episode 58: The Hari Raya Haji Edition

First of, selamat hari raya to everyone! Yes, that means you...

This week. 3 old friends of mine came to visit. It was nice to see them again! Razmi, Hazri and Zaidi- Lets meet up again sometime...

Hazri dropped by my store earlier to inform me that my old gang was getting together for an outing. He wanted to invite me as well. I just told him that I'll try to make it. I'm feeling so bad. These guys plan these outings with me in them but I just can't make it to any of them! I feel so guilty...

At work, I have been kept waiting. Waiting for someone to replace me because my shift ended almost like 1 hour ago! I've never waited for anyone in my life but she actually made me wait for her...

Some people just can't take criticism. I say what I say with good intentions not bad. Its better you hear it from me, a friend rather from someone who doesn't know you at all. Its your choice...

I see the goodness in people. That's why I'm friends with a lot of people. I look past physical appearances. I'll pick them over anyone of those pretty faces with a black heart anytime.

Someone has been telling everyone that I like this girl. Let me just say that she's just a friend. Just because you always see me with her doesn't mean that I like her. Please don't be jealous. This is nothing...

The girls that I know tell me just about everything there is to know about them. Sometimes, it surprises them I know that much about them. Why is that? Maybe because when they talk to me, I listen to what they have to say. I think most guys nowadays just look at the girl's breasts and butt only...

Someone opened up and told me of her problems. I want to help but I think should not interfere. I may cause even more harm than good. I just told her to leave it to God. In the meantime, I'll support her in anyway I can.

That's all for today.
Take care.

Episode 57: Some good advice.

"Never allow yourself to be treated as nothing by another person whom you cared so much..
If you feel you are not cared by that person like you do, then let go..
That's life..
It's about making wise decisions, not about making yourself a foolish one."

Juraimi:To those who are confused and conflicted, I hope this helps...

Episode 56: The one about being the victim.

Gossiping is a very bad thing. So is calling people names. Especially when it is about me. I mean what do you people get from doing that? I was there. I heard the laughter. I saw the looks you all gave me. Here's the thing, its only funny when the other person laughs too. I was not laughing at all. Its all very childish... I hope you enjoyed having fun at my expense.

On my way back from work, some fat kid standing beside his motorcycle saw me & tried to get my attention. Firstly, I don't talk to strangers. Secondly, I don't like strangers who smoke and try to get my attention. I tried to ignore him but he taunted me again. I just replied as politely as I can and walked off. I didn't want to make a scene because "you-know-who" was there... I don't know who that fat bastard was but I swear if I see him on the road, I'll run him down! Nobody makes a fool out of me...

Today's quote of the day is," I'm single, but not available! ". Anybody got any idea what it means? Some girl said it...

It must be so difficult for a girl when she has so many secret admirers and boyfriends. And they're all lining up just to see her. I mean which one of them will she make use of today? All she has to do is smile and ask nicely and its done. Whats wrong with you guys? Can't you see that she's just using you?

That's enough!
I'm done...

Episode 55: Sitex Final Day.

Yeah, Sitex is finally over... As tiring as it was for me to work the last 4 days, I could hide my displeasure of not being able to go to the show itself. So not fair! I wanted to buy so many things... Haiz... Guess I'll have to wait for the next one...

Kak Su came back to help out yesterday! It was great to see her again... She's now a manager. She's still the same person I know from last time. Happy & cheerful...

I was working with 3 Filipino girls this week. They were all nice people. They are Sonia, Hazel & Geraldine. Only trouble I have is communicating with them. Sometimes, I felt I was lost in translation when I'm talking with them. My conversations with them should come with subtitles! Haahaa...

Whats next for me? Only time will tell...
