the four right chords can make me cry

have been too lazy to post recently
i can throw a few excuses at you, but ultimately it boils down to laziness.
the same thing goes for the state of my room. but now that i dont have homework to do on my table, its easier to let stuff just gather there like moss. in a week, its gonna be a whole ecosystem.

lady V, i so hear you. And yeah, like your friend said, i think its insecurity for me. I feel the need to be affirmed, i feel the need to see approving raised eyebrows "oh, you went to an Ivy League." but now that i've identified it, it seems like a pathetic reason and its been a little bit easier...

sorry mandy we couldnt meet up. know what? i ended up asking for the night off today anyway, but i went to send my friend off at the airport. and you know what? i didnt even get to see him cos i was late. and you know why that was? it was cos i was dumbly waiting at paya lebar for the train that goes to changi, only to realise SIX trains later that you have to go to tanah merah first. MAN i felt dumb.

havent been keeping you updated with whats going on at work. Havent seen the new girl Irene since i first saw her. I think Ben's gonna fire her, even though she's chio and all the guys are crazy about her. But we got Adam now! well this is kinda late, we've already had him a few weeks i think. When he started out he was just like me! super shaky, esp when serving soups, threatening to scald unsuspecting customers. now i know why i gave ben heart attacks. I'm quite a closed person, so im not as thick with him as the rest are, but he's cheeky and funny and makes work more fun.

i think last week a customer even wrote us a letter of commendation!! that really made my day. I had been working both shifts for several days in a row and i was really getting tired. and for some strange reason it was REALLY crowded those days. So when adam said someone wrote me a "loveletter" i just laughed and continued working doggedly. but after i read it, it made my heart soar, and i worked and smiled even harder than ever.

today baya (aka ah neh) was taken away by the police!!! sounds so drama right? but although i was in the kitchen the whole time, i didnt even notice him go. But not to worry, he's not in trouble. It was actually just the CPIB; they just wanted to ask him questions or something. dont know what happened but he wasnt back when i got off work. Aisha had to wash the dishes instead!!! it was funny... no one wanted to throw the rubbish...

dont know how they coped with the dinner crowd with just Ben and Jean. I was meant to work both shifts but bailed out last minute to go send bencheok off. normally 5 waitresses are required to run the place, surviving on 2 is impossible, made more impossible if the dishwasher never came back and the waitress has to double as dishwasher as well. felt so guilty about leaving them in the lurch like that....
