at the end of this utterly short sunday, I'm totally exhausted by the weekend's activities. but still... its fulfilling.

saturday was sorta last minute plan. Jer awoke from his long slumber (and I really mean looooong) and we decided to have a quiet dinner with his parents (the sisters went out for a birthday party). so SH went to the market and bought some stuff for cooking dinner and bought some of the yummy poh piahs from the 400+ market.

and then came the impromptu bowling session. I am proud to say I have improved my score! but certainly need more practice cos the 'feel' isn't there yet. inconsistent leh!

now today was the auction thingy my ex-colleague asked me to help. I was actually quite unwilling to help out cos I know this period will be busy, since next week is the tradeshow week. even if I have no work to do, I will be tired from the week's work. indeed... I had some work to complete. but since I already said I would help out and she can't find anymore people... a promise is a promise...

met some nice gals from today's auction. one was a hospitality poly student and another was an auditor who worked in one of the big 4 and she can speak dutch cos she's born there ok! so cool!

so basically it means hours of standing (this time the pay is lower, to my disappointment - bt still 10 bucks an hour) and I was again irritated by one of the Indonesian guys. who keep pestering me to take photos and wanna be 'friendly'.

in the end, he didn't give me the shock of the day. some other guy did. during lunch, our sit-down-to-rest session... one of the guys moving the paintings came up to me and say:

'are you the gal who was reading 8 days on the train?'

at first I didn't quite get wad he's saying. becos I haven spoke to him at all, neither have I seen him before. even though I know I had 8 days in the bag, I still didn't really get wad he meant by the qn. after asking him did I realise that this guy was trying to say he saw me on the train in the morning reading 8 days and he tot I was familiar.

ok...

then, even though I tot this guy was weird, I still attempted to make some small talk so I won't appear rude... and he dropped the next bombshell on me...

'are you going back boon lay later? cos my friend is driving and giving us a lift to outram. we can give u a lift to the station too.'

I was like WTH!!! how did he know I live in boon lay?!?!

I dunno wad was the guy's intention... maybe he really was trying to be nice. but I doubtso and was seriously creeped out. he said he saw me on the train, tt's how he knew I live in boon lay. but come on... when you take the train, do you scrutinize every face in the cabin, remember what they are doing and where they board?!?!

give me a break from weird guys.

I only want Jer :D
