And this is my beautiful life
The only thing certain is everything changes
The lows and the highs
And all those goodbyes
As hard as it gets I know it's still amazing
To be alive
It's a beautiful life

These are hilarious!!! These guys never fail to make me laugh like crazy..watch!! or u can catch them on Thursday 5pm (i think) or the time that i always watch (repeat telecast) which is on Friday, 11.20pm.





SIP has finally ended. And i only have 3 days to enjoy the freedom.

As i expected, i cried alot on my last 2 days. The first day i really cried and sobbed with kak Rohaya. We hugged few times before departing. Macam drama laaaa..haha. We hugged, then i went one way and she went the other way, we turned and gave our last wave/goodbye and off we go.

The next day, manager asked me what happened the day before with me and Rohaya. hahaha. Paisey or what.

So on that day, did the normal customer service stuff and all but most of the time i was behind the counter did some wrapping. I rolled some of the Urban Write Christmas wrapping paper, and wrapped some items that was unsealed. The cover of the items were torn up and written on so i go around for abit and try to see if i can wrap them back. The staff there liked the way i do wrapping and so i help them for abit before i leave.

Anyways, while i was wrapping a notebook, my supervisor came to me and said "i am going to miss this lady who's standing infront of me, wrapping, so much". I swear, my heart just melts. He kept on saying thank you for doing a good job, for being a good wrapper and kept reminding me that that was my last day. I keep telling him "can you stop saying that or i'm going to cry. Go away!" I was close to him coz we always go back and take the train together coz only the 2 of us live in Tampines. We joked alot while working and i had fun just talking and having a break with him. He may be my supervisor, but i feel like a friend to him. I still respect him though if he asked me to do things. I nearly cried but i held it back.

Then Suffri the new part-timer, Mahi's friend, called out my name from outside as he's going back. I don't know why but as he walked my tears just came rolling down. I excused myself to the toilet and just let it out. Like WTH only right?? haha. CRYBABY! I think it's because i didn't get to say goodbye to him properly.

Then after some time, i went to the counter where Grace and Mahi was talking to show them something. I asked Mahi, why Suffri go home so early. Then suddenly Grace said "OMG she's going to cry again". And there, the tears rolled down my cheeks. While putting together the cushion calendar at the other counter, Desmond came. I just tell him, i'm fine, don't mind me.

Then when it's time for my dinner break, Mahi's going home. So i bid goodbye and cried, AGAIN! Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Going to miss him so much.

Time for closing. Walked towards the MRT and Daniel held me back and gave me a present from all of them. I knew what's in it coz of Grace. haha. I LOVE IT! Thank you all so much. And thanks for all the wishes. Going to miss you guys.





I'll visit ok....forget me not!

thank you
bye.

Last Thursday was Kak Rohaya's birthday. I forgot at first but then she told me that her son did something so sweet to her on her birthday. So then i thought of celebrating her birthday. Just a mini impromt celebration. So i bought her a card from our own store! HAHA. It costs $1 but with the 20% employee discount, it cost me 80 cents. haha. Sengkek siak! Anyways, it the thought that counts. So i made everybody sign and write something on it. Then at night, bought a chocolate cake from McCafe. Just a slice for her la, no need so big.

Then me, Grace and Siu Lin surprised her with the cake after closing. She almost cried. haha. Hope that would be a memorable birthday for her. Happy Birthday Kak!

On Sunday, another birthday celebration for Desmond the supervisor. It was during operating hour. I shall not say how i feel. It's just nonsense. But anyway, Happy birthday Desmond!

2 MORE DAYS BAYBEH!!!!

Hope my last day at Urban Write will be the best time ever. I'm excited to end this SIP and yet sad that i'm not going to see them anymore. I can visit if i want to but when kak Rohaya said "I don't know how i' going to work without you. First Azilah and now you. I just don't have the mood to work here anymore". It makes my heart melt. I'm so going to miss her. I hope we can get our last lunch/dinner break together tomorrow coz she's not working on my last day. Going to miss her so much.

ok got to go and sleep.
bye.

PS: Hope you get the Coach job ASAP!

The manager's back and many are not happy.

Anyways, on Friday, we had to come super early at 9am coz of the APEC VVIPs are scheduled to walk around orchard at 9.30am till 12pm. So Orchard Central being so clever,asked all the stores to open at 9.30am. In the end, we waste energy and electricity coz there was no VVIPs.

Anyways, I was counting stocks at one corner when suddenly kak Rohaya came excitedly telling me something nice just happened. She greeted a customer in a suit and tie which she thought was an APEC member. Turns out he is the owner of Garuda Restaurant upstairs. He asked her if she had had her lunch yet, to which she said no. The guy was so nice to ask her come to his restaurant for lunch FOC! Ofcourse she didn't accept it at first but then the guy called his staff to pack 2 packs of food. Free food for me and her! Lucky I went for break with her on that day. haha. Dapat makan free. Wheeeee~~

So since there's no more sofas at the mall for us to chill and eat, we decided to just sit at the staircase just next to our store. Ate and chatted happily. Time for us to go but...................

THE DOOR WAS LOCKED!!!!!!



Had to call THAT guy for help. haha. I am now going to call him, Our Savior. hahahahahahahahahaha. We laughed so hard la to our silliness. We didn't even check the door first before we happily eat the FOC food. hahaha.

Sistaz..the paper we're holding with our names on it were given to us by our customer. We served her and listened to her stories patiently and she gave us this. They think she might be the mystery shopper. Who knows......




Moving on...

Went out with Bie today to watch a movie. We weren't sure what to watch. He wanted to watch Astroboy! No way man! Wanted to watch 2012 but the first 3 time slots were all fully booked and the 4th slot is 5pm plus. So we end up watching 'My girlfriend is an agent'.

Verdict, the show is highlarious. Everyone should watch it. The storyline is similar to Mr and Mrs Smith but with more humor.

Today was a short meet up with him. Missing him already. He's taking his FTT soon. Good Luck baby! Love you!



ok better sleep now.
Bye.

It's already 11 November! 2 more weeks baybeh!!!

Anyways, i just need to update some major events that happened for tha last couple of weeks.

31st October
Went for the on campus session in the morning. After meeting up with our LOs, the B.A went to Century Square for Popeyes. The intention was to celebrate the oldies birthdays. haha. I knew they were expecting it, especially when they voluntarily waited for the food themselves, never turned back, went to wash hands together. hahahaha. After eatig and clearing the table, Suhailah said "Ok la..bring out the cake already. No need to wait anymore." hahaha. Then hid went to find the staff there for lighter or something. She brought the cake behind and suddenly half of the crew came out with the cake singing happy birthday to both of them. They were suprised by that. hahahaha. Thank you Popeyes staffs. Then took some pictures, ate the cake and off i went to work.

3rd November (i think)
Went to work as per normal. Cleaned abit here and there. Served a customer and i went to my supervisor to ask some question while he was talking to THAT guy. Before i could even ask him the question, he said "Amira, can you go to TMC(Tampines Central One)?". I was like what??? For what?? He said they were short on staff, only 2 people working there today. I was quite reluctant. Talked to my supervisor on the way to the bank. He explained why he chose me to go there and not others. I was happy and sad at the same time. I was happy because then i can go back and eat my lunch and dinner at home which is 5-10mins away from TMC, I can go home early for once. On the other hand, i feel that i'm already comfortable working at ORC, with the placing of all the products and where it is all kept. I hate the feeling of "the first day".

Kak Rohaya was so cute. When i went out of the office with my bag, she was like where are you going? I told her, and she said alaaaaaaaaa....why????? I'm going to miss you. Don't forget to message me ok. hahaha. I was transfered to TMC one day only la. hahaha. She's such a sweetheart. She's like a sister to me at work. And Kak Azila too. She's my sister from another mother (she has the same name as my beloved sister).

OK so, reached there and the first thing i noticed is that is is REALLY messy. The display and all. Other than that, it was normal. Only that i was abit blur on where everything is or whether they carry the same stuff as ORC does.

7th November
Went to the doc for the MC baybeh! haha. Was taught by my brother-in-law on how to fake sick and what story should i tell. haha. Secret..shhhh!

After that went for training. Last training. Had only been to 3 trainings before and i was scared i couldn't get it all in my head especially the lyrics. Trained as per normal and had Canadian Pizza for dinner with them Nira-ians.

8th November
Woke up early and off i went to Naqiah's crib to get ready for competition. It was kecoh as normal. The laughing and the joking and the yelling. Normal for us. We want all the best for our team.

When the moment of truth came, my tummy just filled with butterflies and the heart just kept pumping fast. I smiled on stage but i gulped so many times. Did what we were supposed to and at the end, we recieved a standing ovation from Nira's brothers. We were so happy, especially Faat. She was smiling wide and squeeking "dorang happy, dorang suka, OMG aku nak nangis (jangan nangis faat under her breath)" haha. I was thrilled at the feedback that fid and the other brothers gave us. Thank you guys. We did great hob girls! We were awesome! Although we didn't win anything, I'm still very happy. I love you guys. Muah!




ok bye.

PS: Happy super-belated 20th birthday Suhailah and Stephenie!
