I am just Me. Am I?

What a weird day

I was woken up by a tight slap on my foot at 6:40. Ouch. Both my feet and head hurts. It sucks to have to wake up so early. And to be going somewhere which I dread to go.

The job orientation. I regret it once I woke up. What made me think that i'll gain something out of it? I so won't be a sales person no matter what. But still, I had to go, due to a promise to a new friend.

Reached Chinatown on time, waited at the office and I bitched a hell lot about the nature of the job, how I am biased against it and how I'm bent on NOT doing it and how I'm gonna leave halfway. Wow...what am I doing there man?

Anyways, we were paired with 2 girls, one called Yvonne and another Eileen, both younger than us, namely 17 and 19. They are very bubbly and friendly...and they went on and on just chatting, telling us about the job and blah. One interesting fact, the 19 yr old has a baby 3 mths old! Super fat but adorable! =) I wanted to ask more about their personal lives, but guess I shouldn't b nosy so we just sat and listened or else chat more amongst ourselves.

After rotting ard at Macs for a while, we set off to Hougang. They were supposed to sell their stuff there. Reached at 11, waited for the girls to eat their lunch, then finally they started to go around, table by table, selling this bath set for $5, supposedly for charity. Well, there's a license and all...but they said they were volunteers...hmm...aren't volunteers not supposed to get money?
Confused???

Anyways, finally plucked up enough courage to tell them that I'm going to leave soon and that I am so NOT interested in the job. I mean, I respect it and all but it's not what I want to do. I realised that I'm really a person who APPEARS to be confident but in actual fact...i'm NOT. Was supposed to promote and sell to our trainers but even so, I was stammering so badly I didn't know what I was saying?!!? Can't help but admire their guts. Dun think I wanna face so much rejection in one day.

After we part our ways, (our trainers let us off early and went off to meet their targets!) XY n I went to walk ard Hougang Mall. I finally came home and after sitting around for a while, fled out to go Tampines for e UE meeting. I was so engrossed in this novel...I didn't really think...and got on the train to Boon Lay! I mean...that's usually the train that I take! was happily reading and thinking that I'm actually gonna be on time...until I realised that it's BUGIS!!! OHG..I was supposed to be at TAMPINES!

No choice but to skip the meeting...I mean, what will sponsors think if we're like always late? But felt to stupid gg home immediately so decided to take a walk at Tampines Mall. Walked and walked...found the Vcds that I wanted to get for my Mum. Paid a bomb for the originals...ate Macs ice-cream...and home I went again! I hung around cos' I thought I might be needed at the meeting. I mean, it seemed like a really lame and lousy excuse to take the wrong train!

On my way home, suddenly received a sms abt results. I almost cleaned forgot about it! Logged on...and...SURPRISE! =)

It's the best results so far!!! No Cs! It's a A+, A-, B, B and B-!!! It's nothing to boast off really, but i'm happy! Though my macro did get B-...no chance of a honours already...really...i'm not cut out for econs I think. Sometimes I wonder what my results would be if I had chosen another major. But well, since my decision can't be changed and time can't be retracted. I just gotta accept my fate.

Just pretty upset that I won't be able to go Shanghai for intern...but well, that'll have to wait then I'll see how lah...

Lalala...a weird but overall ok day!

Looking forward to the rest of the week! Meeting up with friends, shopping...EATING...and CRUISING!!!!!!!!!! =)
