I told myself that I will write this blog entry yesterday but in the end I didn't as it was approaching 4 am in the morning and I was really getting sleepy. Ok....So now....I have got like so many things to tell you that I can't tell it to you in Chinese or I will really take very long for me to finish.
Firstly....my luck with shoes.......
Well, you see I have got really very bad luck with shoes of late. The first shoe I fall in love with looks like a converse but it is a high heel. Normal heel height, sharp pointed rubber front, boot cut slightly above the ankles. Even when I tried the largest size the shoe was still too tight in front. The sales girl was saying that the front of the shoe will expand a little but I think expanding a little won’t really help much. 2nd shoe that I fall in love with, was a 6 inch heel with wrap around the leg kind of strings with are detachable, cool black leather straps with metal buckle. But it was from Everbest, costing $128. Another shoe that I realty like was the black straps shoes which are featured in the Charles and Keith advertisement with the girl lying sideways on the sofa. There was blue, white and black. The size 6 white was a exact fin so I decided that I should take size seven black. There was no stock. The person called every outlet that they have in Singapore, they have 7 other colors but not black. I made an order. When asked how long will the stock take to come, 3 wks-1mnth? It better be 3 wks or it will be too late for Chinese New Year. Then there was this other Charles and Keith shoe that I only moderately.....what bad luck huh?
Secondly...........finding another job......
Yesterday and today is extremely eventful in terms of finding a job. Well, as I kept saying, I totally hate the people at DFS, there is too much politics going around which is worsen but the commission money factor. You get accused, you are a victim of biasness, all friendliness and helpfulness of nearly everyone is falsehood. Moreover, the pay dispute and the change in commission percentage and the grumbling permanent staff about the temp staff snatching their sales, it is a scam to pay the temp staff as little as possible. First there was this bank call centre job that was confirmed but while the agent was giving me the details is some paper signing to do, the bank call back and said that they had some headcount problem and can only decide whether a not to employ at the end of this week or early next week. Then today, I went for this interview that was very successful that the person wants me to start immediately. It is a Taiwan based international e learning company with a lot of branches all over the world and they are starting up their branch here in Singapore and I will be employed as a customer service officer. The bank job pays more, possible Monday offs and rotating shifts while the customer service officer is a Monday to Friday kind of thing and pays less. I personally think that I can learn more as a customer service officer but the thing is that when my beau comes back, he can only go out on Mondays only. How?? Sad….confused….want to discuss with him but his bloody hp got not $ and has expired........quarreled about it.
Thirdly........my braces.......
Finally, after wearing it for nearly 3 years, I have finally removed my braces. My teeth look a bit yellow but I can now smile with more confidence. I will be collecting the retainers next week, retainers are alright in terms of looks as compared to braces. Finally, I can eat vegetable and stuff with much lesser problems than before.......eg, the food being stack or coiled at the wires. Everybody, smile!!
