ExpEriEnce at EXpo...

yeapx.. BloGgin agaiN!! I wanna shAre about my woRk eXperience at ExpO!! if you dunnoe, i was workin for the IT ExhiBitIon held at exPo for the past four days!! Frankly speaking, it almost became the worSt job i had ever DonE.. yes.. worse than tele-marketing.. haha.. okok.. let me share...

The pay was realLie bAD..!! its lyk $5.50 per hour!! to the max right.. NvM.. i had to reach expo every morning at 0945 from SEmbAwaNG lor!! all the way until 1800hrs with ONLY half an hour lUNcH break in between lor..!! in addition to that i was one of the FOUR hu were SUAy enoUgh to become part of this Shuttle Bus 'bOiS'.. only FOUR of us were in charge of directing human traffic or sth... while my OTHER frens hu worked with me were detailed for other jobs lyk data entry and ushering!! they were told to wear black long sleeves, black pants and leather shoes.. while the Shuttle Bus boIs were told to come in poLo Tee, JEaNS and track ShoEs..!! i already felt some discriminatioN lor.. there were even tiMEs when the supErviSor forgot to tell us we could gO until we asked HeR ourselves.. can get reallie mAd man me..i was lyk 'ArGH!!!'

The FOUR of us were split into two groups.. wat we had to do was basically to direct ppl from the MRT Station to the various halls.. it wasn't juz directin lor.. we had to USE the LOUD HAILER!! thats lyk SOOoOoOOoOOooO embarrassing riTe.. the problem was nobody could hear us cos of the NoISe around yet when they saw US they LauGhed at us.. i was reallie pissed off.. there was once we didn't use the Loud Hailer for a period of time.. then the SUPERVISOR came over and asked us if we were supposed to use the loud Hailer... SaRcastiC rite!! anGry man...

sOoo throughout the four days i managed to switch partners and know all the shuttle buS bois.. it was on the second day that i got to know this indian Uncle.. we had a reallie goOd chat during our work.. realLIE.. He was lyk sharing his life story with me!! i was sad when i hear him.. He is lyk 42 years old already.. then he got retrenched Twice.. he is the BreaDwiNnEr of hiS family with a FamILy to raise.. one chILd!! and... he was doing the same part time as me.. soOo.. as i talked to him.. i had coMpassIon for him.. yea.. MonEy was no doubt reallie hard to earn for him.. buT as i see hiM.. he reallie leads a happie-go-luckY lIfe.. i kept complainin while i was workIn..!! oppss.. haha.. but He alWayS had a SmilE on hiS face.. =) I PRay thaT GoD will mOve MIghtily in hIs life..

anOTher PartNEr is a fren hu juz oRdEd.!! goin to uni tgt with me.. i worked with him for the last 2 days..!! we reallie had great fun playing those lame gamEs in order to pass time.. He is qUite HAnDsOMe too.. opps.. gAls.. dO yr Job.. haha.. we ToOk lots of Photos and VideOS... towards the end already so dun care if anyone was lOokIN!! haha.. we juz had fUN!! alThough it was tiriNG.. STanDINg there the WHOLE day except during Lunch.. we manage to share with one another our life story.. be it our LovE relationshiPs.. oppss.. or evEn our ArmY experiences.. we became SOoOoO gd frens that we even decided to meet up again..hahhaa...












All in alL.. although it was a lowly paid JOB.. i seriously beliEve GoD Put me there for a purpose!! i got to noe the people around me and use me to speak to them.. pRaISe goD for thaT... OnlY goD can Put us at the RighT place at the Right time..!! =) i could simply STOP working after the first day.. which i almost DID.. but i decided to sUBmit!! a principle GoD taught US.. hEnce.. the spIrit oF suBmiSsion allowed me to press on.. and.. i believe goD hAs used me one way or another.. =)

SheaREs..!!

Wah.. reallie too busY to Blog..!! sorrie Guys.. haha.. anYwae i'm EagEr to share wat I've experienced for my SheaRes ExpoSure Camp. It was a 4 days 3 night thing... Stayed at Sheares Hall.. was reallie suPer HappEning man.. everydae slept lyk only 5 hours.. sleep at 3am.. wake up at 8.30am.. woRsE than army lor.. at least got 7 hours of sleep.. but reallie wortH it.. hahaha.. I happen to be in the same group as Ck.. called CaPtaIN plaNet!!! haha.. cos the theme of the Camp was Superheros.. our group was lyk the most quiet group.. YeSs... surprising to most you i kNOW cos already got ck and me.. still lyk tt.. anywae for the first 2 days was reallie quiet.. the guys were ExtrEmEly uNited..!! the gals too.. but abit SHY lar hor.. we spoke at the same 'frequency' and laughed at the same lame jokes.. reallie funny... ThaNK GoD!!

OnE of the highlights of the caMp was.. the Secret Pal thingy.. whereby all of us are assigned a secret pal each.. mine was Tarzan and Jane.. so i won't noe hus Jane until the revelation night on the third day!! haha.. but on the second dae.. we will get to interact with one another.. blind folded at sentosa.. so.. there i went talkin happily to 'Jane'... NOT KNOWING tt she's actuallie a councillor!! KenNA FAKE!! hahaha... cos my REAL Jane was absent on the second day night.. all the while i was triCkEd man.. haha.. But on the third dae.. when THEY werE revealed.. i realised i'm Quite lUckY!!! haha.. cos ppl only got one SP.. i got TWO SPs.. that means two presents!! opps.. haha.. reallie fuNnie experienced...=)

On the LAst dae.. which was quite sad.. cos we had to part from one another.. some of my OG mates aren't stayin in Hall actuallie.. they juz come for fun.. we grew very close to one another especially after those late night suppers we had together.. Reallie thanK goD for that great coMpany of New Frens.. we may not have won many of our games.. may not cheer as loud as other groups.. BUT we know we did our BEsT!! and we never forget this GREAT experience.. hope to see CaPtaIn PlaNET soon.. =)
