2 days @ Sembawang Hill FC

Wat was i doing there? For 2 days i turned to part time hawker centre waitress! hahaa.. u know those aunties who stand in front of every food stall to take orders and/or delivery ya orders?! yes yess.. but i was the xiao mei mei there and everyone gave me a weird unusual look. haaaa... one good thing, everyone ask me "u still schooling?" hahaaaaa so happie!

actually was there to help my uncle out at his stall cuz he lacks a helper this weekend. since i had no programs for weekend as of midweek so i agreed to the deal. at first thought it's gonna b voluntary work again BUT i was delighted to see cash inflow! hehehe come to think of it, not too bad an idea to occassionally help out there cuz i get extra bucks! haaa but then gonna be so busy in the coming months. shall leave this as a back up plan when im on leave again.

at first feel quite pai seh to do the work there cuz it's my first time doing it. really admire the hawkers how they maange to multi task - clearing plates, preparing food, taking orders and setting up utensils ALL AT THE SAME TIME! i cant ever do tat after 2 days of training. well they come with experience according to my aunt! but i manage to rem the table numbers after half a day. a minor accomplishment ba.

often hear ppl say that sporeans are not friendly, they are cold and do not carry a smile with them. beg to differ after these 2 days. often im greeted by a friendly smile, except for maybe 1 or 2 ppl who seem a bit more rude. besides them, the rest are rather friendly and ke qi when placing their orders and adding requests. no commanding tone which is a good thing.

1 more thing i noticed i.e. customers do say thank you when u deliver their orders and return them their change and they look at u making eye contacts, showing sincerity. but then ah i tink many times they take a second look at me is cuz they think i look so young y come out work, maybe there's some element of sympathy. haaaa.. but im still happy when they show appreciation with a simple thank you!

despite the comfort from customers, my soles hurt for 2 days and i woke up dame early like 645! got home n laid flat after bath.

time to get myself settled down for tmr. abit awake now cuz of the nap in the afternoon. shall take cough syrup later to help.
