ICE.COLD.COFFEE

I had breakfast in the canteen today. After a while, Aishu came. So did the others.

The 3 girls- Dawn, Seet Teng and Xin Yi - gave all of us a "pez" sweet. Mine is the daffy duck dispenser. So sweet of them! I didn't expect it so I didn't buy anything for them. Felt a little awkward. Haha...

All of us also signed the birthday card for Feng Sheng before giving it to him. We gave him a pack of hersey's kisses cos yesterday when we were at Carrefour, he said he wanted his first kiss for his birthday present so we all gave him kisses. Haha!!! :)

The first thing we did when we went up to the office was to give the people there the Ferrero Rocher. It was supposed to thank them for teaching us and stuff. But when I think about it later, actually it's kinda weird. Cos last time when I went to pastry, me and Zhang Lan didn't give them anything. Instead, a few of them gave us a present. I still have the music box with me. Love it so much! Of course, I printed the photos for them when we went back, that costs me a bomb man! But It thought it was worth it.

After giving them the chocolates, Jasmine brought us to the ballroom where she taught us to fold the napkins into candles. We needed to fold about 400 of them! She said we would probably take the whole day to finish folding...

It was fun at first, but it soon got boring. Sometimes the candle was too fat to put into the ring, then you'll have to fold it again. Or else it would be too tall or short, or just not nice enough. After finishing about half, we went down for lunch.

Lunch was nice. I can't remember exactly what we had, but it was nice.

After lunch, Jasmine asked me and Aishu to keep all the small chocolate boxes which the guys had placed on the tables earlier. Apparently, she had made a mistake. But the good thing was, we got to go down to pastry. I was so happy. Haha!

Kuok I was the one in charge of the chocolates and we helped him to count them. There was one box extra and he gave us to eat. There were 2 chocolate hearts inside. I had the brown one while Aishu ate the white one. It was so, so, so nice! Chocolate always makes me high, so I was laughing for no reason at all on the way back to the ballroom. So funny! :D

At the ballroom, we went back to fold napkins. But after a while, we ran out of napkins and there weren't any at housekeeping, so we could finally take a break from the folding. We helped out in the back lane, filling the soy sauce and chilli plates.

Then, there wasn't much to do. So we too photos with one another, also with Lu Lu and Buddhi. It was very fun! :) We also exchanged email addresses. Then, Lu Lu found out that the chocolates we gave her went missing, only the yellow ribbon was left. Wonder who was so mean to steal it. Think she was quite sad about that...

Later, me and Aishu were asked to place the wedding gifts on the table. It was a cocktail stirrer. Very nice! This couple must be very rich! They have 35 tables, which is a lot compared to the others. Their napkins also not the usual fan shape, and their wedding gift is super nice!

By the time we finished, it was almost 5, and we were dismissed. All 7 of us went down to the cafeteria to take a group photo. We also saw Charlotte from HR. She told me that I'll be working the 7am to 3pm shift next week at the lobby lounge. It's super early! Don't know if my Dad can drive me or not. Luckily Feng Sheng also working the same shift at Oscar's so hopefully can meet each other. And too bad Aishu is working the later shift so we won't be seeing much of each other. Then I'll be the only one on attachment at lobby lounge. I'm afraid I'll have to eat alone during lunch if I don't know anyone else well enough. I don't want...!

After changing out of the banquet uniform for the last time (seems so sad. Haha...) we went to the lobby to take group photo. Then, I took bus 36 to east coast with Feng Sheng. We missed the first bus cos there were too many people, couldn't squeeze in. So we went to Starbucks to get a drink. Mine was ... I can't remember what. Got some raspberry thingy and it was orange in colour. Haha... I seldom go Starbucks so I just ordered what the guy recommended. Quite nice.

Feng Sheng said I had a typical and unique look. I shall take that as a compliment! Ha!!! :D

When we boarded the bus, we brought our drinks along too. We stood beside a guy who was sitting and reading some "magazine". Feng Sheng's cup was almost directly above his magazine and he had to be careful not to let the water droplets drop onto that guy's book. It was super funny!!! We kept laughing and I think the guy knows what we were laughing about too. Hahaha!! :D

I reached east coast at about 6 plus. The Biz farewell barbeque was supposed to start at 5pm. And Kimberly was supposed to go too, but at the last minute, she decided not to, cos it had been raining the whole day.

While walking to the bbq pit, I was thinking about lots of stuff. Like the time me and Zhang Lan left the pastry kitchen, I was super, super sad. I even cried a few days before the last day when I thought that I was leaving soon. But Zhang Lan didn't even look sad at all! This time, although it's our last day at banquet, I wasn't that sad cos I'll still be in conrad for another week. I'll miss working at banquet though. It was fun. I'll probably be super sad when the attachment ends next week. Of course, it also depends on how the people at lobby lounge treat me. Haha...

Anyways, back to the barbeque...

Luckily it didn't take long for me to find the pit. It was very near the VJ overhead bridge. I was actually preparing to go there to get lost, then call someone to give directions.

When I got there, the only seniors who came were Sinhui, Sally and me. Only 3! There were lots of juniors though, but I don't know almost all of them. Quite sad... Jacqueline came at about 7pm. And the 4 of us took photos. The food was quite nice, although the satay took a super long time to cook. I suspect it was still a little raw when I ate it. Haha... Gross!

Me and Jacqueline left at 8pm because we wanted to watch the last episode of zhi zun hong yan. Tv addicts! Haha... We took a group photo before we left. I think we left really early, but there was nothing much to do since both of us didn't know the juniors.

It's sad when people in a cca don't know each other. That's why I love horti. We rock! Haha...

I reached home in time to watch the show.

I also watched the opening match of the world cup. Germany vs Costa Rica. But I fell asleep in between. Haha... Too tired.
