5am... AND I'm still awake -__-
Think I'm having insomnia again these days. Laid on my bed at one plus but couldn't fall asleep till 3 plus after I got up, off the ceiling fan and on the air-con. It is so fcukin warm these nights.
Then Mom woke up to prepare for work at 4 plus and being a light sleeper, I woke up and stayed awake till now. So it means I hardly had any sleep at all, haizz. At this point of time, I wish I have some sleeping pills...
Update on my employment status. I guess I've got the job already as the La Mer Consultant and will be working at the airport. However, I have no inkling on when I can offically commence work as I'll be going down the Airport this coming Tues to attend a course conducted by the airport management from 9am-5pm (zzzz). After that, my company will apply a work pass for me and will take approximately 4 working days to process. Then... I dunno what happen liao. I think they will let me know what to do next by then bah. I still need to attend Estee Lauder trainings on product knowledge before I start working there but dunno when it will be lah.
Basically my working hours are nine hours each day, one hour being lunch/dinner break. There are 3 shifts and earliest one is from 6am to 3pm, 7am to 4pm and lastly, 5pm to 1am. Transport will be provided for the first (to airport) and last (from airport to doorstep) shift. 5 working days per week. SO! During my working days, most likely I will head home to rest cuz I gotta wake up freaking early to prepare for work and will be dead tired by then.
Fyi, I've got 2 bosses lah, one is from the retailer at the airport who pays me my monthly income and the other is Estee Lauder whom I will be representing and promoting the main brand La Mer. And it means I gotta hit the sales targets set by both companies lorrr..
I was brief on the salary package again on Fri and realised that the basic pay is very very very low as it mainly depends on the commission. IF I did not achieve the targets by a large percentage, I will have ZERO commission. AND I must eat SAI liao lor, with the pathetic take home amount. I guess for the first few months will be more tedious for me bah with little pay and fear of conflicts with the colleagues there as my bosses kept warning me about the fierce competition I will face as everyone there representing their own companies will be vying for commission. BUT I was told to fight for my rights and IF I weren't in the wrongs in any conflicts that would arise, I need not be afraid of my colleagues.
DUHZ! Thus, I give myself an allowance of 1-2 months to pick up the skills and techniques to clinch sales then I will try my best to chiong chiong chiong!!!
Fortunately Pauline accompanied me there on Fri. I had to leave home at 720am to take train all the way to Changi Airport and we had breakfast at MAC before attending my interview. Had a hard time locating the HR office. After that, we walked around Terminal 2 and took a sky train to Terminal 3. Very spacious there. Then took MRT to Dhoby Ghaut to book our flight tickets. Had to reserve the hotel online ourselves though.
Shopped at PS before taking a train down Orchard to shop for Pauline's dress for her gf's upcoming wedding. Finally ended up at Far East and....
I finally did Brazilian Waxing!!!!
Muahahaha! Everyone is saying how painful it is thus I was still considering to do it or not while Pauline did hers first. I had a terrible encounter with the DermaRoller face treatment I did last year Dec and the pain still lingers in my head.
Imagine. Someone using a knife to cut your face over and over numerous times. But it was a roller with many lil' pins lah. Had to close my eyes and I was wondering whether my face turned bloody already then. Somemore the nurse did apply numbing cream before I did my treatment. Numb ge pi lor. The cream is useless at all.
Then after the agonising roller treatment, sudden bright rays of light (laser) shone on my face and it felt like someone is using fire to burn my skin lor. Everytime the laser was activated, I thought I was going to die already and jerked abruptly each time as it was muthafcukin too painful!! It really felt as if I was in hell then. I did not exaggerate, it was THAT pain lor!! I swear never to undergo that treatment again!!!
Back to waxing. So I've painted a horrifying picture of it and thought of the pain to be identical to the face treatment's. Gave me shudders. Then I finally plucked up my courage and decided to go for it.
Initially, I felt awkward having to strip naked of my bottom. But soon after, the lady assured me and I felt much more comfortable. She applied hot wax to the hairs and pasted strip of cloth over it. In an instant, with a quick pull, the hairs came off completely. And I was like... huh? That's it?? Chey... not really that painful as everyone claimed lah. Few more times of it and I'm done. Told Pauline and she exclaimed that my tolerance level is super high! Cuz even though it's the second time she's doing it, she still felt that it's darn painful.
If brazilian waxing is painful, let me tell you, my derma roller treatment is x10
I will be going back to do once a month. Each time is $45, can take package, cheaper. If anyone is interested on where I did, you can ask me =)
We had our dinner at Far East too and the food there ain't nice at all. Too salty!! Coincidentally, I met Dennis, my ex-poly friend whom I'm not close with. Surprised he still recognised me (cuz I saw his friends nudging him to look at me when I entered the restaurant, wonder why..) and we chatted for a while before he left. Pauline said something that made me sianzz after that. She said that it meant I had not changed at all lor since Poly days. Aiyo, I looked darn nerdy and fugly leh, means I did not change for the better these years ah? =(
Recalled a funny conversation with Pauline and silly me made a funny statement again. We were talking about recarnation and she asked whether I want to be human again next life. I told her I want to be a bird instead, more carefree. Then I talked of the previous life, this life and next life. This was what I said, in Mandarin.
(I dunno how to type Chinese characters using bro's Pc so I'll use hanyu pinyin instead)
Me : Qian shi, jing shi, hou shi....Then both of us knitted our brows when I said "Hou Shi". SOunded so wrong! But I just couldn't seem to find the correct term for "Next life" in Chinese at that time.
She finally corrected me and said it should be
"Lai Shi" cuz
"Hou Shi" means something like funeral? Wahaha, my Mandarin is getting worse!!
Headed down to REDS Salon at Bugis today and used my 20% voucher to do rebond and cut. My stylist kept telling me how damaged my hair is lor. Haha, I know lah, my hair roots are frizzy mah and it's been liddat since young. Enquired whether I'm able to perm my hair but he said it's a No-No cuz my hair's too dry lah. Will not look nice. Haizz, don't think I can perm my hair again anymore as my texture is always not good. My stylist's really nice and always gives me lots of suggestions. You can look for Kelvin if you wanna get a nice cut from him too!
Was supposed to meet a friend after that as my session ended at 8 plus but he smsed me that he needed to go to his aunt's place as she had just passed away. In the end, I took a train back to Toa Payoh, bought some tidbits from NTUC and dinner from MAC before heading home. Will be meeting him tml instead I guess.
6 plus liao and I better get my ass in bed now. Hopefully I can hit the sack finally. Night all.... And good morning at the same time =D
