surprise, SuRpRiSe, AND MORE SURPRISES!!!
wat a day... i mean... WAT A DAY!!!! i dunno how long i'm gonna take 2 write this but heck.... SO MUCH happened today...
meet up 4 lunch
having told most of my classmates 2 be in school by 1.30 so we could have a mini gathering, i msged victor, mico and sakib to meet up earlier for lunch at 12.30, thinkin tat we would have enuf time for lunch... well seems i was wrong... vic came at bout 12.40 i think n i got a lil worried cos 2 others were not there yet and e clock was ticking... both of us went 2 withdraw some cash 1st while waitin but when we went back e 2 weren't there yet... so i decided tat we'd eat 1st but at a slow rate... den i got smses from them sayin they'll be quite late... apparently, his definition of "quite" was... "VERY"!!! such tat by e time me and vic were halfway thru at 1.15, sakib arrived... and mico... FOREVER ah... made us wait till 1.30 den he arrived... by e time we arrived in school, it was 1.45 n some of my classmates started complainin bout makin them come early while i came late... watta hell... MICO!!!!!!! haha nvm... :P
e CLIMAX
wow after chattin a lil wif some old classmates n schoolmates, it was already time 2 go 2 e hall... we're told 2 sit in register order in 2 rows... i was next 2 yin chun... when e ppl started 2 settle down, e principal mr. low started his "speech" in a rather grave tone... after he showed e overall results, i could c y... e results were quite shocking... i myself tot tat i mite have done real poorly in e exams... till e time came when e form tchs were 2 give us our results in reg. order... wow e stress finally n suddenly came 2 me... when it was my turn, u could imagine how i felt when she handed them 2 me... i didn't pause even a split sec 2 realli LOOK at my results... or should i say, STARE at my results... i was overwhelmed with such relief when i saw wat was on tat lil piece of paper:
eng lang - 3 - B
comb humanities - 5 - C
Maths - 1 - A
A maths - 3 - B
Bio - 3 - B
Sci (phy/chem) - 3 - B
Chinese - 6 - C (i dint retake e paper though i got a 6 so i dint bother bout this)
wow... i COULDN'T BELIEVE IT... i actualli passed my humans even though i bullshited my way thru... haha... after openin e MOE's letter with Novi's help, i realised tat i actualli scored a 13 for my L1R4!!! which was much betta den my target of 16!!my L1R5 was 18 which qualified me for JC but NO THX... i'm nv goin 2 JC... seems most of my frenz did quite well too... except for several of them who got a D7 for eng... haiz... o yea congrats 2 christine and sakib... e 2 of them r e top scorers of our school.. (n they're from my class too!!!) seems e principal wasn't quite satisfied wif e 1st class but was quite satisfied wif e 2nd(my class!! A2 ROX!!).. haha... oh yea my veri curious cousin made me call her up 2 tell her my results... seems she got A1 for her chinese... i'm proud of her... i wonder how her results'll b like next yr... (she's sec4 this yr)...
celebrations @ safra
seems ed muz have been realli satisfied wif his results tat he intended 2 treat us to a game of pool... but un4tunately e tables were all full so we went 2 e arcade n then 2 e bowling alley... where he ended up treating us 2 bowling instead... i guess i learnt from e 3 rounds there... i realised e mistakes in my techniques in e 1st round in time 2 beat vic, ed and yin chun... sakib and rong ee were too gd i guess... though sakib's a 1st timer at bowling... beginner's luck i claimed... every1 except poor sakib improved in e 2nd game esp victor who scored e same as me - 107... i think tat's my highest score so far... but in e 3rd round i think we all "deproved" (if there IS such a word)... after returnin e bowlin shoes, ed went 2 pay e bill, which turned out 2 be more than expected... $43.20... poor ed onli had $30 bucks so we all chipped in 2 make it enuf... by tat time it was 6 so with onli an hour 2 eat and reach e factory in time for our half-day, we headed 2 a coffee shop for dinner, whr we all (except POOR yin chun who's a vegetarian) had chicken rice... not bad... quite delectable for a $3 meal... haha... over dinner, we discussed bout drinking at nite... we had confirmed mico, victor, ed, and me... rong ee was realli sporting i muz sae, cos she didn't hesitate at all but juz said "yea sure ok"... cool... and at bout 6.30 we headed 2 e bus interchange whr we had 2 go diff ways, wif me and vic heading 2 take 854 2 e factory while sakib oso took tat bus but stopped somewhr near his hse... we told rong ee to meet up later after work at bout 12+ if she could make it...
slacking @ work
hmmm... upon entering e workplace, i saw tat a LOT of ppl took e day off... when more others came we started comparing results... seems kun loong got e highest among us i think... wif a 9 for his L1R4... wow... i guess i clinched 2nd place.. hehe :P... looking around e workplace, i realli felt more spacious... they've cleared quite a lot of stuff earlier i guess... work today was rather simple... we're told 2 juz count e quantities of e many diff types of stuff like chargers n batteries... ez but muz count accurately lorz cos e supervisor Sebest made us write our names and badge nos on pieces of paper 2 paste on e boxes of stuff we counted... bah.. no sweat... realli soon be4 we knew it it was already 11+... after i was outta there, i met up wif vic and ed and took e transport 2 northpoint...
happy hour!!
reachin northpoint, we managed 2 get a colleague 2 help us buy e beer cos we're still underage (shhhh!!! hehe) n 4tunately he agreed... thx dude... we bought a total of 15 cans of heineken and 2 bags of potato chips... den we headed 2 golden village whr we met back up wif rong ee and mico n made our way 2 our drinking spot... when we got there, we found it was taken by a grp of teens... possibly a gang but i'm not sure... so we went further down 2 a fitness corner (u noe e type whr got chin-up bar and monkey bar tat type)... settling there, we started our 1st can and started eating some chips and some mashed potatoes tat mico brought from KFC whr he worked... cool huh... but too much potatoes lahz... mashed potatoes and potato chips?... haha... after chatting a lil mico suddenly suggested playing "truth or dare"... coincidentally there was an empty beer bottle on e ground so we used it... perfect... haha thankfully we were alone man... e stuff we did was crazy... i dun wanna expose who did wad so sorry... my frenz'll kill me if i do... haha... but time flew and when most of us had already finished our 3rd cans rong ee had 2 go... so we all walked her home, laughing and chatting all e way there... haha so fun... after she was safely sent home, it was my turn 2 be sent home haha... not tat i'm afraid of going home alone but it was nearby so yea mite as well... while walking we started 2 sing a lil... in my slightly dizzy state i still managed 2 rap out "in e end" while they all sang e chorus... damn fun... den mico suddenly suggested starting a band... haha i duno whether he was serious bout it but i definitely CANNOT SING BRO!! haha... haiz den so fast reach my block liao had to sae my goodbyes... den i guess they took a cab home cos they all were in mico's direction so it was on e way... haha...
wow... watta day huh... i actualli spent 1.5 hours writing this u noe... wow... anyways i guess its time 2 hit e hay... surprisingly i dun feel tat sleepy even wif e 3 cans... hmmm... l8er!

rising tension
12 Hours 2 go... wow.. how time flies huh... strangely though i dun feel tat nervous at all, even wif every1 @ work going around tokking "excitedly" bout e next day's events... rite after i signed in @ 3pm, i could immediately hear ppl saying tomorrow this and tomorrow tat... @ my line, i guess e most nervous 1 would have 2 be Surya or Su for short... e whole day he's e one who kept tokking bout how he was feelin, saying things like "oh man... tomorrow man!!! its juz tomorrow man!!! i am sooo damn nervous man!! wat if..." and he goes on n on n on... nvm him... also, i recieved a few gd luck msges from some great frenz when i checked ma phone during dinner and after work... realli nice 2 noe tat ppl actualli care... o well let tml speak 4 itself...
well... work today wasn't too bad i guess... we packed both C205s and C200s (no v525s for us today! though we were supposed to but somehow another line was made 2 do it... line 9 i think...) ... i did retail boxes for c205 at 1st, den switched to manuals... manuals suck... there were 5 of them, 1 book and 4 pieces of paper... n u noe how irritatin it is when u've to pick a piece of paper and end up getting 2... nvm... o yea n i got my "yellow" card a month ago becos of manuals... dang... but its a diff story so... then later after dinner tat time we did c200s... after packing a DJ (like a set lidat) of 480 phones e GL(grp leader) SM came n said smth bout each line having 5 DJs to run (or pack) including wat we've finished... at tat time it was 7+ so i tot we'd have enuf time... after finishing e 2nd or 3rd DJ i switched to putting batt, batt door and charger... ez except tat i was supposed 2 put in e phone if i had e time 2... ez... argh den suddenly e QA made us stop, saying tat e NTC sticker wasn't pasted on several phones... and line 7 was SUPPOSEDLY pasting them be4 we packed them... quite devastating cos tat meant tat we had to "rescreen" all tat we've packed... LINE 7!!!! wat're ya'll DOING??? SLPING IZZIT??? sheesh end up we found tat there're more than 30 phones w/o e stickers... becos of this we end up not being able 2 finish our 4th DJ... needless to say e 5th.. but as there was a shortage of chargers we had to stop packin our 4th DJ n pass all our chargers to line 10 and help them finish their 4th DJ cos they were finishing soon... by e time we're finished, e day had ended at long last... i wonder if line 7 got scolded at all... nvm... enuf bout work for today...
so i guess tml's entry should be quite long... wif all e laughter, crying, etc etc... i wonder whether i should bring some tissue 4 tml juz in case... wat 2 do? there're 29 gals in my class u noe... haha... till tml den... hope i'll even have e mood 2 write tml...

sluggish day @ work

haiz... wat a s|anZ day @ work 2day... dunno y today i feel esp tired... mayb cos not enuf slp?... haiz anw... our line today started off doing bout 500 c205s (another sucky model)... and after tat, guess wat... 4 e rest of e day we packed a total of bout 2000+ v525s for e Germans again... is tat phone realli tat gd?? hmmm... n yea... i did boxes AGAIN... haha n be4 i 4get... i had some help from jonathan, peter, wei siang, victor and alvin... thx guys... i realli would've been in some deep shit w/o their help... esp when i'm suddenly so tired today and all... nvm tat...
seems victor has all e luck... can u imagine being paid 2 sit and print stuff?? tat's his job!!! watta lucky bus-3rd... argh... but he claims tat if e GLs were're around he'd come 2 help out in e line... so when SM was havin her break he came 2 help a lil... n jenny didn't come today it seems... no wonder y things seemed a lil more peaceful today... though SM did shout a bit and complained bout how my line was so slow... watta hell... okie nvm den...
seems e tension is rising in every line... every1 seems 2 be tokkin bout how nervous they r bout this fri's results n wat they'd do if their results were bad/gd... come 2 think bout it... i'm not at e least nervous... which is strange rite?... victor, me and su were discussin wat 2 do on sat since we're given tat day off n decided tat on fri we'd decide since e results would affect our mood tat day...
haiz sianz if not for my ushering duty this sunday i'd not have taken half-day for sunday... i guess i'm not joining class this sunday i guess... no regrets though... i've my reasons 4 not takin e whole day leave n joining class... personal, so... but seems tat many r taking fri-sun off... so i guess the lines'll be quite empty for tat 3 days... oh yea... rumour has it tat lines 5-12 r shifting to Techpoint for gd from next week onwards as e company wants 2 employ more ppl... so i guess u should try applying for e job soon if u want 2 work here... esp u MICO!! haha...
*yawn* i guess tat's bout it for now... l8er!
