Off day today! Actually I'm bored stiff at home. Nothing to do, no nails to paint, no colleagues to crap around with, no lunching with Syafs, no handling bitchy customers...

I can't believe how disgusting some Singaporean customers can be. And they say the service industry needs sprucing up. Hello, maybe if we learn to be gracious customers, that salesgirl won't be so rude, or that waiter won't be so slow.

After countless " Hi, can I help you? " I'm starting to get a teeny bit sick of it. And it's only one week of work! I hate repetition you know. It's so pointless. I'm already dreaming of what to do when payday comes. Obviously you all know the answer. It's a four letter word and rhymes with chop. Duh!

But thankfully, 9 out of 10 customers I've served are nice and civilised people. 1 out of that 9 might be a little weird or off balance, but it still beats having picky, rude or condescending customers.

Take this lady. I asked her if I could help her. You know what the cow did? She held up her hand with her index finger outstretched and pushed it in my face. You know, that gesture which says, Please shut up and stop bothering me. Eh bodoh, I was asking only right? Who the hell do you think you are? Sheesh.

Then another girl. Again, I asked if I could help. She looked at me, and said, " Oh, never mind. I know all this. I used to be a manicurist, " in a tone aimed to make me feel stupid and inferior. Macam sial kan. I mean, seriously. I WAS JUST ASKING IF I COULD HELP.

Of course there are those who blatantly ignore my greeting. Then when I go back to the counter, then they go, " Eh hello excuse me! I want this! How much ah? " These cavepeople can go eff off. Disgusting. I bet if these people go shopping in France, they would have been spat on already.

Because I'm a part-timer, I don't really do manicures. So I have to go upfront and handle customers. But I do alot of nail art. Which is damn fun. And takes the stress away from the job. Also, having nice colleagues help too. Love!

Shit. The tummy I was starting to lose at the beginning of work has come back! Oh my God. Syafs, I'm really sorry, but I can't lunch with you as often anymore. Maybe twice a week. Plus, adult fare's really eating my allowance up. Sucks man. I really think it's unfair that we have to pay adult fare if we're not in JC now. So what if I'm not schooling anymore?? I'm still technically a student, just taking a break from studies.

Have some pity lah. Or get me a job that pays me a thousand a week.

I can't believe results are out in a week. Or less. I can't believe it. My knees are shaking just thinking about it. GAHHH.

The train to work always has eye candy. The train from work is a different story. Lol, random. What? I'm a single girl. I need eye candy to maintain sanity.

Eh I need to play pool soon, or I'll go mad. I NEED THE STICK. Hahah!

Ahhh. Back to Syafs' present. Ta!

SYAF I AM

Okay, so I'm this girl right.

Who had big plans to change the world.
When I was young, I wanted to be either a zoologist, veterinarian or pilot.
I wanted to travel and help eradicate poverty.

And then when this girl grows up, she's all like, fack that!
She becomes guilty of things she never thought she'd have done.
She meets people of all shapes and sizes, some beautiful, some downright fugly.
Both inside and outside.
She becomes acquainted with some things called failure and commitment.
She realises love is as elusive as, perhaps, weight loss.

I let my inner demon out through my art.
Enjoy.

SYAF LOVES

green eyes on hot guys, red and purple shoes, pepper and cream puffs, lincoln park at midnight
sitting on carpark roofs talking nonsense, meaningful silences, chewy cookie bits in vanilla ice cream
chocolate icing, shopping till my legs give out, smiling at random people, thinking about stuff

N

SYAF HATES

panadol or whatever pills for that matter, retarded nails, losing my voice, being broke
bananas, my thighs and big ass, man boobs, seeing something i really like but discovering that it costs a bomb


SYAF WANTS

levi's jeans, pimple cream, fake lashes, hair dye, a bigger paycheque, M&Ms
new specs, and possibly a hotass guy to sweep me off my feet

YOU SAY


THERE YOU GO.
