The QWERTY layout: The Return.

LOL, after so freaking nong, i'm back.

I didnt blog because:

Pure laziness
Always forget what i want to type
Busy

After that last blog post, "the new year". I had my exams during late January to early February. I think its to 9 Feb. And then go for work i applied with nigel, as some yeo's stationboy or promoter, until now i don't know what job position i was applying for at that time.

Yeo's Man/Boy (Whatever.)

I was stationed at some NTUC @ Depot Heights Shopping Centre @ Depot Rd for a week. Depot Road's near CMPB, which is near Telok Blangah, which is near Redhill/Tiong Bahru, which is not near my house. Working hours usually 10am-10pm so not so bad cuz start late. The job's very relax, very very relaxed. This is how my day is when i'm working there.

I'll take lrt to Choa Chu Kang, then from there all the way to Tiong Bahru Mrt Station, then take a bus 195 to Depot Road. And always, by the time i reach the NTUC, i'm always 1/2hr or more later. Meaning i'll reach there about 1030 or 1100. LOL. But no one will say anything, cuz I don't have a direct boss there. Cuz i'm with yeo's, but there i'm the only yeo's guy, the rest are NTUC workers.

In my NTUC outlet (or most), they have a plain clothes security officer, and he usually is the most free guy in the NTUC, so he always help me mark timesheet lo. But seriously this officer is so lol, i usually come @ 1030 but he always mark my timesheet 1000-2200 straightaway when its still 11 in the morning. And furthermore he usually leave my NTUC outlet @ 1300 everyday. Which means I can knockoff early and collect free money. LOL. Joker.

To explain how slack this job is, lemme tell you how's my day like. When I just come, I will check the stocks inside see whether need replenishing, if need den replenish, if not i'll wait for newpaper to come. LOL. I'll sit on the cartons of drinks and wait. Cuz my outlet seriously no one during morning and afternoon. Then when newpaper come, i'll buy a copy. I'll then take a can of yeo's promo drink and sit down and read newpaper and drink. LOL. wtf. Then i'll sit and take my rounds ard the NTUC to do window shopping and replenish stock. If nth, i'll come out and sit again. Although on paper, my lunchtime suppose to be 1/2hr, I usually take 1 and 1/2hrs. Cuz, go back there so early aso no use, no customer.

And its quite zZz aso. Cuz walk in walk out all uncle and auntie. Not like nigel's outlet. Working staff all uncle auntie aso. If not, its black. Until last day of work den got one not-bad-cashier pop out. But, what's the point?

So, if anyone interested in this yeo's cny thing, can try next yr. But for slackers only. Cuz if u hardworking and you work there confirm feel damn bored. Rmb to bring some form of portable entertainment there.

My Rating - 8.5/10

For the yeo's job i worked there until 16 February. Then i took a rest for a week, then @ 26 February went for another job. This one less enjoyable. But got friend there so nevermind. Its some kinda stock taking job. Definitely not as slack as yeo's but if you like pasting sticker and counting stuff can try. But yeo's still the best la (Nigel can confirm this statement).

Stock Taking @ Hitachi

LOL, simply a job lo, whre you work, den have break, den work again, oh! finish work liao, den go home lo. This job got from through Nigel from FishingKaki.com. LOL, $6/hr, so ok lo. Worked with Jw A.K.A Sexy Boss. I go there i shocked sia, first time see so many part timers doing the same thing. Counting stuff and pasting sticker. About 40+ i tin. This one can't really slack. Cuz must finish the assignment. Then also under heavy supervision. But not too tough a job la. Not a slacker's job.

My Rating - 6.9/10 (Mostly because of the money, if its $5/hr the rating can be as low as 3.0/10)

I worked there from 26 February to 30 February. On 26 February, I finally got my PSP, after much hesitation. I still remembered I didnt really like the idea of buying a $500 handheld console. But, gems gave me the idea to buy it. Cuz gems and lessons were freaking boring. And i couldn't keep letting myself play daidi for long. Aso will get bored. Plus if some of my Dadi-Kaki ponten school then i can play psp myself ma. LOL.

My PSP

I got myself a metallic silver colour psp with a 4gb mem card and some casing. Its seriously expensive, but nevermind la. Cuz lazy to go all the way to tampines to get one cheaper one. Frankly, its better to get it from forums, whre they mass-order to sell. By the way, people who have yet to buy one or wants to buy one, you all can check forums.vr-zone.com. Under the IT Garage section i tin, the consoles subsection. Got one guy selling v1.5 @ 229 if i didnt remember wrongly. Mine i bought @ GM (Gamemaster) for $515 (PSP v1.5 standard pack + 4gb Sandisk Original Mem card + Metal Casing + Twin Power-Data Usb cable). I know la, its ex.

Music's part and parcel of my life. That's one reason why I got my Altec Lansing MX5021 (I still like it) and Creative Soundcard and aso the reason why i'm planning to get a pair of high-end earphones.(If you're thinking sony, its a sign that you've been drawn by the brand.) I'm thinking Bose, Audio-Technica or Shure. But Shure like cheaper lei. If anyone got any of these earphones gimme comments. Was talking to Gin about audio stuff. About the expensive-ness of bose stuff. But i'll definitely spend the money if i had it.

Talking about music, i've been listening to music that are misjudged by other people as boring. But to each his own. I'm currently listening to Acoustic Alchemy's pieces. Definitely not the pop-songs with the LOL lyrics.

Acoustic Alchemy

I knew this band cuz my dad has the dvd, and whenever i sian i will take his dvds to watch. And I think by now i watch the dvd 10-20+ times liaoz. Any of you want more of their music can msn me. (which i think rarely anyone likes) I've got all of their albums.

Lol, on Thursday last week, I asked Jeremy for some Electrico song samples. Cuz i was going for the concert @ NUS the next day, which was Friday, 30 February. Not bad la. Den after that we exchange songs. And omg, he sent me the Kenny G piece, reminds mi of the time when i was in kindergarten when i listen to the cassette tape everytime i go to bed. And until now, I feel its so nice. But Kenny G only a few pieces nice. Kenny G's Albums up for grabs.

On Friday, 30 February I went for the Electrico concert sponsored by my dad. Lol. Buay pai la. The vocals not like those lame one.Wan electrico music, I don't have. Lol. Singapore Pride.

About bass lesson, I don't think i'll get it liaoz. Think I'll continue with my steel string guitar. But i've been thinking of investing in a good electric acoustic hollow guitar. Mayb budget around $2000-$3000. If anyone got recommendations plz tag or msn me.

Today I took out my dad's toys. His guitar and amp but maybe tml i'll play with the pedals too.
