07.09.09 seems so far away now. That was the day I first started my internship at Five Stars Tours, and after more than 5 months, I've left the place with lots of wonderful memories with my fun and lovely group of colleagues. Sincerely thanking all of you from Tampines Branch, and I'll definitely miss all those fun times we had while working! All the best to all of you in your future career in Five Stars Tours. Okay, let me say this straight, but starting your career in Five Stars Tours isn't easy, and I'm determined never to step into a travel agency to work! Imagine more than 8hours of sitting down, entire body with no movement except from your fingers typing hard on the keyboard for 3 years. One word to sum it all up, FATS! Due to long hours of work, and a 6 days work week, you wouldn't have time to do any exercise at all. Not that I LOVE to exercise, but at least I walk, at quite quick paces. And the only off day that you'll be getting will be used to either

A. Stay home and rot the entire day away.
B. Catch up with whatever friends you're left with since you're working so many days, all your friends would have left you.
C. Heading back to the office, since you have many bookings that isn't settled, which makes it a 7 day work week.
D. Furthering your education by going for private lessons, which definitely will make you go crazy with double the workload.

But still, I cannot deny the fact that I've enjoyed the past 5 months, even though I was so fucked up when I first entered the company, leaving me with a bad impression. Now, all I can remember are my WONDERFUL colleagues, and none of the job related stuffs.





So, on 24.01.10, it was Five Stars Tours Annual DnD, Dinner and Dance for short, but I prefer to call it Drink and Drunk. Since most of the staffs kept drinking since it's free, obviously because of it being FREE that's why people keep drinking right? With their continuous efforts in drinking, led them to be drunk, and guess what drunkards do? Yup, PUKE! So, it's kinda like the annual Drink, Drunk, Puke, and Hangover Day! Yeah, keeping sober wasn't realistic on such a day anyways.

The event was held at DXO, apparently the company booked the entire place. Not that it's a big deal, since it's all for marketing. But who cares, as interns all we're doing is to eat, drink, play, and of course take hell lot of photos!



All the interns at DXO!





Tampines Branch! =D



The "S.H.E." of Five Stars Tours, according to the emcees. Think they're blind! My idols don't even look any way like them! WAY PRETTIER!



Can you believe it, they have fans already, before their debut! The 3 of them took part in the singing competition with their version of "Ai Ni" by Cyndi Wang, didn't win but still, GOOD JOB!



The place was filled with lots of people.



Buffet Dinner!!!! Not really nice though! More efforts needed for food!



Performance by a group of dancers who were the PowerPuff Girls and Mojo Jojo. Yup, the looks are exactly like the cartoon, cute girls, and an ugly monster. Not insulting the guy who acted as Mojo, but after he took off the mask, all of us were like, "Er.... *silence*". Yeah, so the theme supposedly was SUPERHEROES, but less than 20 people wore what they assumed was a SUPERHERO. There was a sailormoon, mulan, kungfu soccer team and....



BaoQingTian otherwise known as Justice Bao. And the person beside him is CaiShen or the God of Prosperity. He's here to give out angbaos (Red Packets) to the staffs. And look how it turns out...



All I can hear was, "*screams* I WANT I WANT! GIVE ME GIVE ME!" And I thought typical Singaporeans were bad enough, with the merge of Singapore, Malaysia and China, you can imagine the chaos our country is getting into. Not that who wouldn't want money, since it's free angbaos with $2, $5, $10, but at least know your limits. Why don't one of you just snatch the ingot filled with all the angbaos instead? I can understand if it's for luck, but if you're snatching just because you need the cash, then all I can say is FUCK YOU. Yes, I'm pissed because I didn't get a single one. LOL!



Group pics with the Tampines gang!





Met Yvonne there, her events company is in collaboration with Five Stars Tours, and she's part of the organising party for our DnD.



Eesan! The first person who was really kind to all of us interns, and the first person who guides us along the way when we first started out in Five Stars Tours. Thanks for all your guidance!
Oh and, 3 of our interns walked away with huge prizes from the lucky draw. Obviously not me, but still, we stole the limelight. I bet the full-timers must be so pissed off, especially when an intern wins the top prize. LOL!

After the party ended, the Tampines gang continued to our next destination, Party World at Liang Court.




We got the biggest room that they offer. Each person paid about $25 inclusive of service charge and GST. The room has a massage chair too!





Camwhore while waiting for my songs.







Yeah, since there were those party clappers, we took random photos with them. Doesn't it look like an angry husband slapping the poor wife in the lower picture?


So, we sang from 11.30pm till 4am, by the time I reached home, it was almost 5am. Couldn't stand it anymore, I took off my contacts and fell onto my bed, sleeping for less than 3 hours before lessons officially starts. *murmurs* school shouldn't start so early, I need sleep! And thus, I skipped my NAPFA test, just so I could take my beauty nap! Since I know I'm bound to fail, I don't see a need in going anyways! Time for bed once again!

Feeling super exhausted these few days. Even though I've ended my internship on the 19th of Jan, I still have to finish up on my portfolio. And with meet-ups and shopping trips, no wonder I couldn't get any of it done.

So, sulin came back from Maldives on thursday, and we arranged a stayover at her place for 2 nights. Met up at night for a movie,



ToothFairy! *spoiler alert*

Well, this show from my perspective is generally for the kids. It talks about how parents shouldn't destroy kids believe in tooth fairies, guess kids are allowed to dream. It shows how an old ice hockey player, with the nickname of ToothFairy because of how he knocked out one of his opponent's tooth during one of the games in the past. Yeah, stupid I know! He's in love with this woman with 2 kids, and he always shatters the dreams for kids really quickly, like how the son won't be able to be a good guitarist in the future, or the truth to the daughter that there isn't anything called a toothfairy, it's all just a parent's trick. So, he receieved a summon from the fairy world and was tasked to be a toothfairy, to experience and to make up for the mistakes in destroying kids dreams. So eventually, he notices how much of a jerk he is, and changes for the better. Typical storyline, with a happily ever after. Moral of the story? If you just believe anything can happen. Seriously, I do hope that this world is so similar to that, I believe I'll get rich, am I? I believe about living in a civilised country, and look how civilised people are? Not that I'm shattering anyone's believe, so what? I'm gonna get summoned? Come on, catch me catch me!

Storyline: 5/10
Comments: Thinking of watching this? Think again! Not even worth renting a VCD/DVD.

Anyways, yeah, sulin came back from Maldives with souvenirs for us!



A cap! (Not mine though)



A bracelet and a T-shirt for me! Thanks Girl! =D

Once upon a time, okay forget it, this ain't a real fairy tale and I don't know if there's a happy ending. Let's skip the starting alright?

There were 2 princesses, Princess Rachel and Princess Nicole. They were the beautiful daughters of King Ler and Queen Ler.



They both live with their parents in a....



5 room HDB flat! Yup, who said princesses has to stay in castles? Princesses can stay in HDB flats, straw houses, maybe even on the streets, although those princesses would be deemed as crazy rather than beauty. Yeah, okay so to continue the story....

These princesses has the attributes of any other princess in the world. Whatever words that can be used to represent the princess of England or India or Malaysia or China, could be used to represent them as well. Yes, words like stubborn, beautiful, pampered, lots of clothes, attention-seeking and others that whatever words that can be associated suits them relatively well.

The two of them live the lives of royalty, playing, eating, shopping, sleeping, eating again and sleeping again. And they really respect their parents, King and Queen Ler, without any intention of harming or hurting any of them. The image of them in their parents' eyes will always be Daddy's and Mummy's little girls. In front of all the royal families and relatives, they are always the sweet little girls, who everyone adores. However, when none of them are around, the two princess turns into......



Yup, MONSTARS! They bully and hurt servants and their uncles, however they do it like a Star! Sashaying, but in real, they're trying to kick your butt. Posing, but actually staring at you with wide eyes. They do evil with a hint of superstar flavour in them, so as not to forgo their roots of being princesses. And finally, one day, they were caught in the act, punished severely by being placed at the "Time-out" zone everytime they misbehave. And the rest of the royal family live happily ever after, except the princesses.
THE END!

If most of you have been reading my blog, you'll most probably know of this post. Yes, today I shall touch on another issue that's equally or perhaps a worse situation that is slowly expanding in our country. And that is......



Digging of the nose. Right! Well, to celebrate the end of my internship, I actually headed out with a friend to Vivo City. While on the train there, this uncle was actually digging his nose, really enjoying it, like he's high on some drugs. He kept digging and digging as if he have lots of gold in his nostrils and he'll get rich instantly. And when I looked at him, he actually stared at me, like I'm disturbing his "high" moment. I knew I wanted to do something, so I took out my handphone and took a photo of him without him knowing. Seriously, even if he does have lots of gold, shouldn't he be digging his nose at home or at least with the courtesy of using a piece of tissue paper to cover up? Openly doing it, and thinking that everyone loves to see him doing it. What? You think you're on Guiness World Records for the most GOLD in your nostril?

Its actually fine if you're doing it without the intention of anyone seeing, using a tissue or a handkerchief, but definitely NOT openly and in PUBLIC. I know of a way that the government could do to prevent those people who dig their nose and leave their snot or booger (yes, those gold are called booger) on the chair or flicking it off their fingers.

Whoever notices that one of the passengers on board the train is picking his/her nose, they should immediately press the intercom button and inform the staff. At the next station when the train stops, the person doing it will be asked to leave the train and stand at the platform for 30mins, putting his/her finger in his/her nostril all the while. After the 30mins is up, he/she will have to eat whatever is on the finger as a kind of punishment. Don't you think this idea is even better than a fine of $xxx???

As for buses, whoever is caught removing the snot and booger from his/her finger onto the seat will be asked to pick the snot or booger up and eat everything up. They will then be requested, no requested is too good a word to use, FORCED will be better, to take a photo with them picking their nose. It will be kept in a folder, "Gold Diggers" for future reference.

I think these ideas are great! If any members of the government thinks that this will work, kindly leave me a message and I'll gladly provide more details of this. This will teach people not to pick their nose and do whatever they want with their booger!

Lesson learnt: Too much gold? Want to harvest them? Kindly do it in secret, people might want to snatch your gold and you won't have any left!

P.S. I'm kind enough to cover his eyes, so no one will know his exact identity!

Since what? Primary school I guess, we've always been using "You're a fishmonger!!!" to hint that the person is selfish, ain't I right?



Yes, those are my adorable little pet fishes, cute aren't they? They are named "Mean", "Self-Centered" and "Stingy". I'm serious okay? I've decided to name them those, since they are closely related to the word, SELFISH! Well, not that I really care who calls me selfish, although I don't really associate myself with the word SELFISH unless necessary. Not that I'm not, humans are meant to be selfish, otherwise why would some saint come up with, "Every Man For Himself" or the Chinese saying of, "If You Don't Fend For Yourself, Heaven Will Expel And Earth Will Destroy" Do your own translation!

So, we're all selfish in some way. Monetary means, when people want to borrow money, and you have the ability to lend, you reject them with a lie. Yes, double the guilt right? Or social means, don't want to lose the friend, so you don't let your friend make friends with other people. Yes, you're selfish too! Or even relationship means, you want your other half to be with you always, never leaving your side. Do I even have to say further? That's obviously very selfish of you.

So when people say that you're SELFISH, take some time to think. THE PERSON WHO SAID IT IS SELFISH TOO, unless he's a saint who is so kind as to give to the needy every single day, make donations to third world countries so people there can eat, give up seats everyday to children, pregnant ladies and elderly and practically live under a bridge because he gave everything up just so people can call him a good samaritan instead of a SELFISH BASTARD! So seriously take some time to think about it before you even use this word on another person, if you're also selfish in some way or another, perhaps you should use the word on yourself first, and if you DO change for the better, you can consider calling other people that.

If you're wondering why the hell am I talking about this SELFISH issue, let me tell you, IT AIN'T JUST A RANDOM BLOG ENTRY!

I was working at Greenday Concert the other day, so there was this family who purchased tickets to watch this concert. They were supposed to be seated at the Balcony level, which are the seats highest and furthest away from the stage, which meant that it provided not a good view of the band. So thinking that no one will check their tickets, they made their own way down to the Terrace level, which was the better area, which obviously provided a better view. They randomly chose some seats thinking that no one will be seating, since the concert was starting soon. But the rightful customers came and actually made a fuss, so one of my colleague went up to them and asked for their ticket, they didn't show it to her, and just shifted over to the block of seats where I was supposed to be serving, so I kindly asked for their tickets. Once again, I was rejected as well, and in an impolite manner. The ang moh (caucasian) was like, "Yeah yeah, We're sitting here, and that's that. Just assume we're here!" WTF right?!!! Yup, and right at that moment, the rightful customers who purchased the seats appeared, and now when they should be feeling ashamed of themselves and head back to their supposedly RIGHTFUL seats, they just shifted over so the customer can get their seats, and they can still be seated right beside them.

Seriously, how selfish can you get? You have 3 kids with you, and you're not even teaching them the right stuffs. Where's your integrity? You pay for what you get, so shouldn't you just go back to the seat where you paid that miserable $70+ instead of being such a BASTARD, upgrading yourself to a higher category seat? And that wife of yours, so terrified of you, "Oh I don't know, the tickets are with him." *shrugs and sits down* Can't you make your own decision? What? You scared that if you speak, he might actually slap you twice on your face? Just fuck you, just because you're an ang moh in this country, you think you rule it? BULLSHIT! and yeah, FUCK YOU AGAIN!

Once again, let me repeat, I'm not a saint or anything, I'm a fellow human who makes full of mistakes each and every day. If you're trying to say, "Aiya, only know how to say, also never show.", all I can say is, "YUP, you're just another stupid person, I already said I'm also selfish right? Think it's time to get your brain checked, you might be falling into the category of RETARDED!" =D

After 2 months of not returning to TP for the regular chit chat session with our tutors, finally on 9th Jan, back to TP!

Finally met up with everyone, and outing afterwards! After much procrastination, decided to head to Ju Shin Jung again! We're all craving for the succulent pork belly, the fats and oil that bursts like fireworks in your mouth! Simply delectable!



This are all the side dishes that we're provided with!



The table is filled with plates and dishes of food.





Look how hungry reuben and biyin are.



PORK BELLY!




Even looking at it now makes me salivate!



"When one is full, one tends to play with food!"



Group Pic!



So after a 2 hours session of non-stop eating, we decided to head for a karaoke session! The one around the vicinity of Ju Shin Jung was Teo Heng but it was full, so we had to make our way to Dynasty, one of the sleazy karaoke bars where Singapore's favourite foreign lady talents performs dances and songs to the delight of Singapore's very own Ti Ko Peks or dirty old men.





Yes, we took bus 16!



The sleazy KTVs signboards placed side by side, juxtaposition I suppose, and they name themsleves with words like "Classic" and "Poshclub".



And the dumbest thing that I realized.... The glass windows aren't tinted, which supposedly means anyone who walks past will able to see through very clearly without the intention of peeping, so why would the company want to write that down? Ironic!











Well, in the room that we're assigned to, there were actually empty picture frames placed on the walls. So... we created....



On a side note, the price for a karaoke session was actually quite cheap despite the place we're located at, and we weren't really disturbed by those ridiculous uncles and their cum-filled hands, due to the much engrossed wanking that they're doing while watching those ladies dance. So if youths like us are interested to sing some songs at a cheap price, and doesn't mind such crap. Go ahead to Dynasty! =D
