28 June: OFF
29 June: Typhoon --> Sky Glider 1

21 June..
went shopping at capitola..
bought alot of stuffs!
went to have L8 buffet with aunty mary & family..
its somewhat like kbox buffet though..
their food is yummy..
met new frens..
joey and his mum..
joey is real cute..
he gave me a goodbye kiss when we bid farewell..
haha!

22 June..
went out to have dinner with our colleagues,
julie and kevin..
they are one of the nicest leads ard..
they bring us to a jap restaurant ard capitola..
the food and atmosphere are nice..
actually its not too x..
but we will only go when we got our pay..
hahaa!
if not..
we are spending too much!

27 June..
its cool working at marini's..
the ppl are quite nice..
very willing to help..
i had fun grabbing candies..
so proud myself..
tt i can count their dimes and pennies..
lols!
i couldn't when i first came here though..

guess wad..
i went up typhoon, double shot and gaint dipper!
ohyaa..
and pirate ship as well~
so proud of myself...
cos i didnt dare to take those in the past..
my next target is fireball..
gabe was telling me..
if i dare to go typhoon..
i will have no problem gg fireball..
we shall see..
=)

i'm alone at the house for second day..
cos zixue and su min went over michelle's place..
to acc her..
aunty mary and family went to las vegas..
i bet they are having fun..
hot tub and everything..
i didnt go..
cos saber is there..
i forget wad's his nickname..
he dun bark..
serious..
but i'm stil scare..
plus..
i need to work..
i dun wan to rush around..
thus..
i decided to stay home..

i dunno whether is it..
i'm used to be alone back in singapore or wad..
i love being alone..
hahaa..
perhaps i'll move out when i go back singapore?
lols..
jus kidding..

i dun get the chance to cook when they are ard though..
hahahaa..
i cooked my brunch today..
angel's hair..
an egg..
and buffalo wing's..
i can cook a decent egg out!
hahaaa..
seriously..
i think i have never fry an egg before..
lols!

my thoughts:
i'm utterly disappointed at some things..
i hate to allow my mood to fluctuate..
but i'm learning to take it lightly..
there's stil a long time to go..
and i should be thankful things dun get worst..

when i was at typhoon today..
due to some reasons..
my mood was very down..
i get this kind of feeling all the time..
and i hate it..
my partner was eric..
and i think he thinks i'm arrogant or something..
we didnt talk at all..
until this horrible guest came..

anyway,
i was rotated to sky glider 1 after my break..
my mood lifted up..
cos i met my partner..
i dunno how to spell her name though..
vitaliya..
if i'm not wrong..
she is real nice..
and talks to me..
and bothers to listen to me..
when i go for 1/2hr break..
i met michelle..
and we chatted for the 1/2 hr..

went back after my 1/2..
vitaliya keep making fun of me..
she tried to be fierce..
and shoo me off to work..
den i'll give her tt crying face..
and she'll come over and give me a hug..
i was stun at first..
but i think i love hugs..
whenever i give her tt crying face..
she'll come over..
and give me a big hug!
hahhaaa!

tanya and ashley came to glider..
and tanya join in making fun of me..
i gave her tt same crying face..
and she gave me a hug too!
i love the hugs..
but i was so paiseh..
cos her gf was ard..

i think i'll be over the moon..
if someone evers listen to me talking..
without interrupting..
answering me at the right time..
am i asking for too much?
how i wish someone will allow me to talk my piece now..

my trainer was kevin.
he's nice though..
quite detailed..
when i see him operating e ride,
oh my god!
i'm jus so scare!
this ride go 360 degree..
and it is NOT automated..
its control by ME!
and i cannot make it hang..
as it..
two sides CANNOT be parallel..
i only got 2 buttons to control this whole momentum..
its jus so scary lah...
i saw kevin do a few times before i dare to try it..

the first time i tried..
with kevin's help..
i screwed it up..
there's left and right side..
both side is suppose to turn 360, 2 times each..
i think i press e button too slow..
one of the side..
went 3 times!
kevin immediately took over..
cos i think he can see i'm really scare..
i did quite a few times under his guidance..
den i was left alone..
with my partner, si jie..

after awhile..
si jie got rotated to glider 2..
and su min came over!
so fun to work with ppl i know!
she's more experience den me in typhoon..
and guess what?
both of us screwed up the ride quite a few time..
hahaa!
but most of the time..
its stil ok!

i didn hang the ride..
i'm so afriad i'll hang e ride..
its quite an experience to operate typhoon..

after so many days..
i guess you found your new friends..
you gave me a feeling you dun need me anymore..
if tt's e case..
i guess i'm gotta face up reality.
i guess i'm the one relying on you too much.
instead of the other way round.
i tried to talk to you.
but i guess you decided to give me the "dun-bother" tone.

you ever asked me before we came here.
"what if we ever fight?"
til now,
there's stil no answer.

*

was at dipper today again.
didn had breakfast.
thus was very looking forward to my break.
had a corndog..
during my second break..
decided to treat myself something better...
had a caramel frappe..
something nice..
hopefully can cheer me up,
tweeny winny bit..

got my paycheck..
after deducting this and that..
i didnt have much cash left..
>P

tml having training at 9am..
hopefully it can end early..

there's party next door..
they did invite us..
but i decided not to join..
why?
not in the mood for such events..

to throw in my stuffs..
when zixue head off tml at 730am for laundry..

i dun like the way i'm being treated..

and smiling at others..
tis is not e first time...

things become my fault when i tried to help..
i tried to keep my tone down..
and you felt the other way..
i'm sorry about that..
sorry for making you feel the way i dun intend to..
at times..
i really rather you talk things out..
and not keeping it to yourself..

i guess i should jus keep my mouth shut from now on..
