the one thing i hate..
about drinking red bull is that it makes u feel all shittified when u wake up the next morning, after finally going to sleep the night before. or morning before you wake up in the afternoon coz u stayed up all night. aah well wateva you get the idea. slept late last night scrambling again to finish up my history essay. being undone by my procrastination again as always. resolution is there, but never adhered to. damn slacker la. will never attain the heights of my unfulfilled potential i guess. if ever there was one. i miss the days of acing my subjects back in the ummm early 90s.
aniwaes, morning was a rush today. had to go down to campus to hand in my assignment at the history department, before zooming to the engin canteen to takeaway some cheapo stuff for brunch. after that i was off to river valley for work. zippety zip along the expressway, opened the shop, did some accounting, changed up into my workclothes, and then got all ready to start business. all that was squeezed in from roughly 10.50am-12pm. amazingly efficient, im surprised myself sometimes. no wonder i got the speeding ticket the other time. speaking of which, i do hope my appeal goes through. pleaseee..
work was mundane through the day as per normal. did some transactions, and quite abit of stock processing too. twas alrite. standard stuff. one customer freaked me out though. he asked for a few titles at first, nothing different. then it began.
customer: exxkuse me, dont u have porn?
me: huh..? oh, no we dont..
customer: u dont have? but why, other countries like the US and australia do carry porn in their shops u know.
me: errr yeah i think they do. here its not that liberal guess.
customer: oooh ok. do u know where or how to get here in spore?
me (trying to be polite): err errr.. maybe u can find it in the neighbourhood areas, those makeshifts stalls selling pirated stuff..
customer: can u tell me where is the nearest? im staying around here in river valley. can u tell me the address of these places.
me (getting freaked): mmm there's a few around, but they come and go kinda business. very hush hush and underground.
customer (smiling): brudder, cmon yea. you can share share abit what u know yea.
me: errrrrr ... maybe u can try tiong bahru mall that area?
customer: how do i get there?
me (mind blanked): i think u can take like errr a few buses down...
customer: oh ok. u sporean huh?
me: umm yup.
customer: aaah icic. thank you. *smirks*
the fella went around after that to continue browsing at a few more titles on the shelves, and i attended to the stock after that. tried to look real busy and occupied at least. what a loser man, seemed pretty desperate sia. seriously, i was getting more and more awkward by the seconds. havnt he heard about broadband and all these days? old skool la. haha.
tried rushing back to campus when work ended, had promised yan to watch the compulsory film for sc3101 together in the library. ended up late, was caught in the traffic jams caused by chingay, heavy rain, and the evening office crowd. didnt have time to watch the 140mins show, so we attempted to read instead. the effort was there la. her ibook was there too. a conflict of interest, so we ended up spending more time checking out people on friendster. haha.
been seeing alot of yan, but mostly coz of default through lessons. which aint total fun. quality time is lacking. its school, lessons, revise, and go home. not that im complaining. some others have it worst then i do. at least we do get to meet up yea. but as they say, quality, not quantity is the essence. soon i hope soon.
