Hi there! Back to blogging =)
SIP at 77th Street Office came up to an end at 31st August 07. It was a real experience and I'm glad that I have gotten it as my internship. Learnt about social enterprising and met many famous people [young entrepreneurs] as well as people who are trying to help the society.
There's actually a case in Batam whereby many young girls as young as 9 years old are selling their body for money to pay debts. A young girl had over 300 men in a year! That's so scary! Think the girl should have been numb with sex. She wouldn't mind too if the man requested for "8 times" per session. And the number of young sex slaves have been increasing these few years thus Salima and her group is currently on this project, creating awareness to the public and find ways to help them. They are so poor thing...
SIP's over finally! It's been tedious for me to travel from Bedok to Serangoon North everyday back and fro taking 168, 72 and 159 bus service. Pengz... Thanks for my concession.
At 15th Sept, Went holiday to Bangkok for 4 days! It was so fun and bought many many things. Visted Chatuchat, Siam Paragon, MBK shopping centre, PatPong and Platinum Fashion Mall. Heard that the things sold there are very cheap. But I don't think so. Many vendors marked up their price like all people are sua-ku. From a 1750 baht item can bargain until 500 baht. Haiyoyo. So bargaining skills can be trained until pro already. LOL. But some items after bargaining still more expensive than Singapore's Bugis Street.
After the Thai trip, I was accompanying baby almost everyday until the day he booked in [Sat/Sun he working at Fury Pets]. He got the posting on Fri [i think], OCS! He was thrilled! He always hope he cld be Officer! Many of his close bunk mates went to OCS. He got companion already. Wahaha! Jason Gay also OCS but in OCS different wing as baby. Baby's wing called "Tango" and Jason's "Hotel". HAha...
On Monday[24 Sept], He went to Jurong. Until today, I haven seen him yet.
I'm happy tonight~ Think I can sLeep real well! Cos I talked to baby on phone for almost 30 mins from 11.15 till 11.45pm~ It's the longest. BUt I wun be able to hear from him the the next 2 days =(
He's going field camp. Haiz...
I really do hope this Sunday wld reach faster so that I'll be able to go to his camp with his family to visit him. Then I wld be able to see him le! After 2 weeks of waiting! And another following week, He'll be able to come out from camp on weekends! Hooray! *I must be optimistic!!!***
I'm now working at John Little [Orchard & Marina Square], under Aerogaz Pte Ltd. I'm selling household appliances like: Rice cooker, Juice blender, iron, slow cooker, microwave oven, induction cooker, garment steamer and so so on....
I love being promoter, because I'm able to learn a lot of things which I never know b4 in my life. For example: The pots and pans! Wahuahua...
At home, I never knew so much about them. That makes me ignorant.
After working at both Akemi [bedlinen] and Aerogaz[hardware], I guess I've the potential to be a WONDERFUL HOUSEWIFE already!!! LOL
