hi there!
how are you?
im fine, thank you. :)

guess what?!
i've got a new student in class!
and its a..... GIRL!!!

yes, yes, YES!
a DAMN cute malay girl.
huge eyes with curly fries hair on top!

awww.
i've always wanted that.
makes me melt.

okay so anyway, the day before, i chatted with the principal.
she asked again, when i'll be able to work full time.
i feel so pressurised la! everyone's been asking!

actually i talk to her to ask if i can get a pay raise first.
cause INSYAALLAH i will be finishing school by AUGUST 2009.
then i'll be a diploma holder! yea. dip dip banana dip.

but she said she needs to see the cert. and i said i dont know when i will get it la.
maybe next year. exam results can? she said no.
and i asked if i were to work full time how much will my salary be.

she said $1200.
negotiable?
$50 more. $1250.

i wanted to *yakdish her la. LOL.
and i asked if i had the cert, how much would it be.
she said "one thousand three hundred and fifty".

okay, thats like $100 more?
god. i spent FOUR bloody long years la in poly.
four and a half, to be exact.

so now im torn between whether i should get a degree, or just stay in this childcare line.
over here, i get to upgrade myself and pay likewise.
but i still dont earn as much as i will when i get a degree la.

so how!
four years of full time study?
or three years of part time study.

the difference in salary is like a thousand dollars plus plus plus.
and the difference in years of study is only one.
but will i be able to cope?

RARRR!
how?
i just wish there is someone i can talk to bout such matters.

i told the principal i will think about it.
because when i first accepted the job, i told her its only gonna be part time.
but damn! i fell in love with it.

okay, enough of this.
chapter 2.
LRT.

have you ever been on an lrt?
yeap, the one that doesnt have a driver.
like the skytrain at the airport. (only that it smells better.)

i was on the way to QX's 21st birthday party @ bukit panjang CC.
met shawn @ choa chu kang station.
leonard and alex were late, so we left on our own.

me: looks like there's lots of people. im afraid i cant breathe later.
shawn: i also dont like to take lrt. everytime spoil.
me: *starting to feel anxious, the butterflies start to flutter* seriously?
shawn: ya! you never hear before meh!
me: no~ when?!
shawn: everytime!

so lrt arrives...

cck -> south view -> keat hong -> teck whye -> phoenix.

we just arrived at the phoenix station.
and suddenly, the train lights went off and so did the air con.
the train did not open its doors.

i looked at shawn.

me: what happened?
shawn: dont know. i think it stalled.
me: really?
shawn: ya, see just now i say ady! everytime spoil.
me: mulot masin siol!!!
shawn: should we sit?
me: okay.

everyone else on the train carries on chatting or were on the phone.
they seemed calm.
like as if the train was still operating.

me: how long are we gonna stay here?
shawn: i dont know.
me: isnt anyone gonna call someone to save us? what if no one knows we are here?!
shawn: there's people outside at the station.
me: *looks around and saw an emergency phone* shawn! quick call!
shawn: *lifts the phone and put it to his ear* okay bye!
me: what?! just okay bye?!
shawn: she knows we are stuck. she said its due to power failure.
me: did you know that the other time the singapore flyer had a power failure, they stayed in there for 6 hours!
shawn: you were on it?!
me: no! omg. im going to faint. stop talking to me.

i was staring at the door and i noticed it had a gap.
yes! we are alive!
an indian man used the emergency door unlock thing.

yes la.
thank you, man.
you saved my life.

and we took a cab down to the CC.
where we met leonard at the bus stop.
and went up to level 4; multi purpose hall.

whoaa. cool seh. have emcee and dj.
and there was a magician.
and some roller-bladers.

oh! and the roller-bladers like jump across people la.
it was freaking scary.
i've got some pictures here.
