no topic update..
been quite sometimes since i last updated..been busy tired & too lazy to update..right now where i am suppose to have been studying for my circuit analysis test tom..i kinda swerve to another path of updating my blog instead...lol..k never you mind..i definitely make a point to study later.
So whats the latest update eh..last weekends,work for NLB at expo. hafta report ard 8-0830am & yet until now i still cant exactly imagine how i can ever end up working so far from my house from one end to another and able to woke up damn early..haha. It was a massive book sale where mly & tamil books was sold at $1, chn & english was sold at $2 whereas bundle of magazines was sold at $5. Its 2nd hand books tho & i shall say its good bargain for those in upper level education like ITE or poly basically who studying computers cos you can see these thick books where you actually had to purchase them for ard $30-$60 outside but only $2 at the expo sale..right..its a damn good bargain..even better when there was last minute discount at the last day where 2 books was sold for price of 1. So can you imagine when 2 comp books cost nearly $100 outside..you actually paid it for $2 for 2 books at the expo? amazing huh..hehe..but whats even more amazing when you see these kiasu singaporeans already lining up 2 hrs before the sale starts and ON A SATURDAY MORNING!! At the opening, we(staffs) queued up at entrance to give out plastics bags for the visitors. surprisingly people actually came with the trolley and even baggages for heaven sake! the least i had expected..and i counted and counted those came with market trolleys and baggages..1..2...3...15..35..50...ok i gave up ahhaha! that was the most tiring work i ever had for the past years cos we basically been standing from 830am-930pm..it isnt work anymore..we look more like slaves..rubbish slaves that is..and its the girls who are doing the work and pushing of the heavy stuffs not the guys..and sit down only at lunch dinner which is only 1/2hr and tat doesnt compensate or get rid the ache we felt on our feet. Oh plus backache cos people just throw the red big plastic bags we gave them at the entrance over the place and packer side...so we have to pick them up and recycle and give the people at entrance. i became the plastic distributor, rubbish collector..rubbish dumper and there's even a rubbish truck which is a wagon we used to transport the baskets and loads of plastics..man they sure are basket..lol..
look at the pile of rubbish!!
we are dead beat by the end of last day...
last sat was IMF training. Report at 8 at oriental hotel near esplanade. Was a fun day where we have to search for the history and cultural places..just like amazing race..from the hotel a bus took us to little india & frm there we hafta search for shops frm clues the ppl gave us. Had KFC for lunch provided by the organisers. Then walk ard city area for our next mission. At 2nd last station, to earn the bonus points, we had to stand by the main road and rap a national day song where the ppl on top of the stairs must hear us...seesh elias my ex-crush was there..so paiseh..but thats the thing..when you start not to like the person anymore...he just appear almost everywhere you go..but when you do like them and wanna see them...they cant literally be found..lol!! anyway at the last station near the carvanaugh bridge I THINK..the group is divided into brains & muscle where the muscle have to carry sacks of rice while the brains have to do maths calculations written in chn, mly and eng. Of course i chose brain cos i wouldnt have strength to carry the rice anyway. After that our cluster IC this indian military guy help us with the answers when we started struggling. And on our way back, he treat the team drinks n appreciation for our hard work..so sweet right?? hehe. then back at the oriental, we are divided into diff sub-groups..red cluster again divided into R1, R2..blue into B1..B2..green & yellow..so on and so forth..me sha, di, fiz ika idah hetty are under yellow but the 1st 4 are in y3 where the last 3 are in y4. We boarded the bus according to diff groups where they brought us to the hotels which each bus host are assigned to..then to kallang stadium then to suntec convention hall..all on the IMF event. scary. i scared i cant make it.

Singapore IDOL or SINGING-pore idol??
and finally..i couldnt imagine mathilda had been ousted from the comp. cant even accept hady and john n mathilda was in bottom 3 when the singers who sucks are safe. Unfair. They are consistent and the safe ones are not. What even more pissed when the voters actually vote them just due to their looks. Sucks. I can imagine if joakim become the next sg idol, and represnt us in world idol if there is one..he gonna be a disgrace..and i can imagine how simon cowell and other british judges be dumbfounded not only because of the voice but wondering how he could actually end up as sg idol or even made it to top 12 in the first place. And i think judges made the wrong choice too and was prejudism because in the top 28, you can see tengku aidil and roslan can sang better than joakim. And what the korean community dont realize is not only are they a fool to vote the bad singer in made him look like a fool up there, he also brings disgrace to the community indirectly because obviously he cant sing..if my family member is up there singing like him...i'll be too ashamed that he still in there when the perfect voice got ousted out. cos it just isnt fair and the young voters are so dumb that they fail to realize that their votes are actually jeapordising the quality singers who can sing..if they are too obsessed..they can always open a fanclub but to vote them to the extend of jeapordising others chances are just not fair. Joakim cant hold a candle to the perfect singers like jaclyn victor, kelly clarkson and fantasia man..he just cant..and these voters are too stupid to see that due to their obsessity. If this goes on..and joakim be the next idol..the mediacorp must as well cancel off the upcoming sg idol because here when we are trying to take in ppl with vocal capabilities..people are just to blinded to see that..it might as well be the same of not having sg idol anymore. pathetic.
