Skinny Jeans

Shopping has been one of the never-get-bored hobbies of all women... it helps to relief stress and its also quite a good workout for your calves if u spend hrs shopping... it can even help u tone ur arms as u shove around with the others for the best bargains and of cuz from carry all your bags...

But the best thing about shopping is finding a good deal.. especially for someone like me who like to look ard a few places to compare..haha... now very popular with skinny jeans right... one pair would easily cost $30-ish.. depending where u get it.. if you were to buy it online, mayb can get around $28-$29.. So yesterday i went to Bugis Village to see if i can find any gd deals, since most of the shops there sells almost same stuff, tot the prices could be more competitive but its not the case.. its still selling at $29 cheapest... I still dun believe i cant find a even cheaper pair... so i cont to shop around.. finally, i found it!! at only $25, i got a pair of decent, comfy pair of skinny jeans...!! Cross the road behind Bugis Village and u will see this corner shop that only sells jeans.. ths shop is facing the old market... they have all sorts of design, cutting and colors of jeans, not sure abt how cheap it can go, but i saw a pair of jeans tat is somewat like ur Levi's straight cut look alike tat cost only $20.. .. u will sure find the pair u fancy.. I'll sure visit this shop again to buy my jeans..

Oh well, better start saving more money.. cuz apparently, i heard tat Taiwan has even variety of appraells waiting for me!! muahahahahahaha... tot abt shopping while saving..hahah

"Good Afternoon, this is Lindy, how may i assist you??"

A little update for the past week(s):

On the job training starts and i was attached to my mentor...listening in to all his conversations.. learning how to present and tackle diff questions and problems.. this went on for a few days before i was officially on my on... its fun and tiring cuz need to talk for 8 hours..need to buy more Pi Pa Gao for my throat le...muahahaha... i have my fair share of blunters as well as some trouble i got into..muahah.. lucky my mentor helped me..heheh.. well lesson learnt from mistakes will always make us rem harder.. overall i've learnt alot of things... which is great!! of cuz wat i've learnt fr my previous jobs helps as well...

Last night went out for our batch gathering.. to this place call Amoersia, i tink i might have gotten the spelling wrong..muahah.. anyway its located near Arab Street.. its a place where u smoke the 'Sisah' aka fruit water tobaaco, my first try at tat.. very mild.. and the after taste of cherry is very nice... of cuz we did many classic, crazy and embrassing forfeits for some of our games which included:

(1) wearing all the watches we have gathered among ourselves on both hands, walk to the next table with both hands up and ask someone at the table "excuse me, may i know wat is the time??" giving the very lost and duh~ look ....muahaha...

(2) go to the middle of the shop and act as if u kena fits for 5 long secs....and yeah, i kena this one..muahahahaa

(3) Facing the main road from the window and shout out "I LOVE ARAB STREET!" to all the ppl below..muahaha u should have seen the puzzled looks of the ppl..haah

(4) one of the guys had to do le0pard crawl from our table to the counter and back...

(5) somebody had to do belly dancing for 5 secs.. and he was so sportign tat he even lift up his shirt and really shake...heheheh

(6) someone also did pole dancing...

(7) starjumps.. quack like a duck ard the shop...

(8) walk over to the first table and just sit down next to one of the cust and starts to giggle for 5 secs and walk back..hahaha super classic.. u shld have seen the stun looks fr the ppl at the same table...

(9) someone had to pretend to start a motor bike and did 2 corners with sound effects...

(10) someone had to walk backwards fr our table to the counter and den back ...

there are some more other forfeits we did...hahahah it was really fun..luffing our heads off..haha we really worked out abs and cheeks last night.... i look forward to our next gathering...muahahahah

WE ARE ALL WINNERS!!!!

After 3 wks of nail-biting, hair-pulling, heart-dropping, eye-popping and super tensed-up competition... the 9th Pesta Sukan Canoe Polo Championship 2007 has come to an end...

Although TPians didnt do as well as last yr.. each and every player put in their 101%... in my eyes we are all winners...each time we play, we gave our best and we still impress other teams no matter they like it anot.. looking at their eyes and mouth open so big makes it all worth while..so what lady luck was no on our side.. so wat officials' shoot bird eyes and bias referring kept coming.. we still survived!! wat does not kill us will make us stronger!! TPians are well known for our never-say die spirit... we will be back...

I would like to express my thanks to the following individuals, who have made it possible for TP Munchies to play:

for reminding us to come back and defend (sorry for not listening at times..next yr must make sure everyone dig our ears clean clean so we can hear...),

In short, i'm thankful that I could play with you all... its been a 3yr wait to be able to have enough ladies to form a team..comparing 6 yrs ago when i first started, there were limited resources..

Its not easy to play as a team, espeically with diff batches of players, diff playing styles, diff understanding, diff goals, diff mentality, diff personalities, especially in a ladies team as we are deemed more emotional.. but we can always make things work if we try to understand each other.. a dream team will take yrs of playing and hard work together before they are a dream team...

There will be times where u will feel like giving up, or u feel pressurized, or u on the verge of breaking down.. step back and slow down ur pace.. u will see that all is not as bad as it seems.. we have each other to count on,no matter how seldom we see each other..

If you feel tired and cant cont.. take a break.. re-charge urself.. take as long as you need.. in the process u could find ur passion again.. and when u are back.. u will give 101%.. u will be better den ever...

There are also alot of classic moments that you guys have created and I will always rem... like the infamous:
- "....NOT FAIR..." and "...i'm free but Lindy didnt pass to me..."
- My first ever incident report filling cuz somebody didnt eat breakfast and fainted due to low sugar.. still have to make sure she finish her Ribena...hahahah
- e shoutings of "she's going to shoot", "she got the ball", "she's going to do it" that irritate the shit out of ppl, causing some to be 'shouted' at during the irritation..
- ppl crying and trying to tok and luff all at the same time but nobody can understand a single word...

Lets not dwell on our mistakes but instead learn from our mistakes this yr, work on our weaknesses, enhance our strengths... Wat does not kill us will make us stronger!!! I look forward to fighting side by side with the MUNCHIES again!! And when we do, the others will fear cuz they are not playing on our side!!!
