The limited edition Betty Boop badges are so cute I couldn't resist buying one. And trend is, all our lanyards are decorated with character badges LOL



Kimmmmmy so cute when she came down and said "Oh no I'm feeling giddy" after we...



Rode on this, TWICE!!!!!! Both the red plunging one and cyclone twist. I screamed so much my voice is horse.

Gotta feeling I'm going to give back the money I earn to company, I am so tired today from running around working and slotting in time for play. I attempted to talk to the Egyptians and ask if they hurt as they walk on the elongated costume. All they did was to stare back. Right, I remember mummies and Scorpion Kings don't talk HAHAHAHAHA. You know, it's scary how fast these talents react. One moment Betty Boop was in the same Buggy as us from office, minute she walks out she gets into character and goes 100% bimbo!

Sorry for all the rattle about my workplace hahahahaha one day you guys are gonna get sick reading it at the rate I'm updating my posts hehehhe ^^ Tomorrow I'll be on my own. Better do a good job, V.!

All shows to be done without costumes for the next 3 days so our department basically has nothing to do. Yeah, I know. Getting paid doing nothing and having loads of fun is amazing HAHAHAHAHA. It's either you have nothing to do at all or you can't even breathe and eat lunch properly. So extreme... I like. Hehehe. Today was like having off, all of us were running around going into shops, checking out rides, getting preview tickets for shows and other dressers' productions. From Water World to Mummy's Tomb to Far Far Away to Sci-Fi, up ahead I said "It's New York!!!!!!" They replied "NO WE'RE AT SCI-FI!" "Okay wait, few more steps after this line" *JUMPS WITH HAND IN THE HAIR* WE'RE IN NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Really beginning to like my Channel 8 and Suria company (inside joke, go figure) LOL LOL I mean, they're fun people to be with and everybody works hard ♥

This is a 99.9% happiness-filled job.

"Back in our previous company, no wait all of us had sucky companies before we came. The working environment here is so good, you come back on off days just to help or do stuff, and you actually hang around after work. Last time, 6.00PM on the dot and we leave the office. Here? It's a jungle!!!!!! Still can't believe we're at Universal Studios Singapore!"

"We're literally like Cinderella's hardworking mice underneath, going up to see daylight once in a while and blinded by the Wonderland." - Our departments are all at basement levels hahahahahaha! So you can paint a picture in your head right now, us scurrying around beneath getting work done and going up again to continue, back up and down and up and down... 2-3 meals a day (excluding breakfast) and we always feel hungry and thirsty. Lucky there's plenty to eat, best of all it's provided for ^^

I'm gonna hit the sack once I finish typing this, I am sooooo tired from running around hehehe. Not complaining! I'll just treat it as exercise hahahaha. Have officially started work and I might just fall in love with it, I'm back even on off days and actually looking forward to it. People inside are crazy, everybody's saying Hi How are you(s) along corridors and smiling 24/7 even if you don't know each other, very very busy place though! I think.. Its really an utopia upstairs (our departments are all at basements) and maybe.. there's some enchantment over the entire place, everybody looks charming hahahaha! I haven't met any evil characters (pun intended) yet, well maybe just one of the Scorpion Kings (from movie The Mummy) that tried to scare me while they're parading hahahahahahhaha. OMFG HIGHLIGHT OF TODAY: WE RODE THE INDOOR ROLLAR COASTER AT THE MUMMY'S TOMB!!!!! I swear they're putting in effort to scare the hell out of you, even the staff on duty are trained to talk and behave like mummies, suddenly jumping on you or giving directions in monotone. While we're seated all of us went "Is this work???" HAHAHAHA who the hell gets to play rides when they work! Hehehe yeeeap lucky us, only to those with staff pass hehehe! Ride went backwards and then forward fall omggggg I screamed my lungs out hahahaahhahahaha!!! Yesterday was my first day at work and the boss said "Oh Hiiiiiiiii Welcome on board and pleaaaase do not quit! As you can see we're a bunch of HOT mess in here and having loads of fun weeeeelcomeeeeeeeee!" *Clap clap* Hahahahahahahahahaha I swear, my boss is hilarious! Well its literally a hot mess inside our headquarters. Racks of costumes every damn corner, laundry stacked all over, wigs, fabrics, measuring tapes, papers, mannequins every where. The executives' area is just... table against wall in a corner, even the managers/bosses room is in a mess full of boxes. Amongst this mess there's coordination, hardwork, stress, lots of fun and brain-wrecking. I idle from time to time because the productions I'm involved in are still rehearsing, when they start the actual thing I'd probably need to fly from place to place. Some of my colleagues running shows, so exciting to see them get busy. Can't wait for mine to start! :D :D Alright I hear bed time calling, Ta ta! P.S. I might be too occupied with work in future, but I do update my twitter on the go. Follow me for updates! http://twitter.com/candyflossretro - Thank god for micro-blogging hehehe

明天就像是盒子里的巧克力糖
什么滋味,充满想像
失望是偶尔拨不通的电话号码
多试几次,总会回答
心里有好多的梦想
未来正要开始闪闪发亮
就算天在高那有怎样
踮起脚尖,就更靠近阳光
许下我第一千零一个愿望
有一天幸福总会听我的话
不管要多少时间,多少代价
青春是我的筹码
每一颗心都有一双翅膀
要勇敢往直前的飞翔
没有到不了的地方

Song on repeat in my head, favourite phrase has to be 青春是我的筹码。。。

So please call me back with good news already (aka salary that I counter proposed).... Got another call for the same department but different position, Executive this time round. Confused for a while before we sort things out because they asked me down for another interview "but I went already!" and double confirming "is this the Costume Specialist position" but turned out to be "Administration Executive for Costume Department" Job scope is vast apart okay! Sit-in-Office VS Running-around, I'd prefer the latter so yes I gave up the Executive interview. Stupid you think? For the pay, maybe. Management has no OT like Operations, do your math, I think its about the same after your pluses and minuses. I've tried management in TW and I really don't quite like it ESPECIALLY ADMINISTRATION........ If it was PR or Marketing I would have given it a go. This is... Finance and Business.......zzz Really need to give a reply to AMC because they've been chasing me to join but my heart's at RWS hehe. Anyway please have me in your prayers that I can start work soon. Or even better, with the pay I asked for. I'll try and be a better person hahahhaha X X

2010 has been treating me well so far, nailed 2 out of 3 interviews in a week and am weighing my options right now. Salary is about the same, still negotiating though, both giving me different benefits and opportunities.

#1 Universal Studios Singapore - OMFGGGG NO DISNEYLAND HERE, I'D SETTLE FOR THIS OTHER WONDERLAND ANY DAY!!!! Till of course, uh Disneyland comes to Singapore hahaha which I doubt. Not so soon probably since the whole Integrated Resorts is still up and coming. You cannot imagine how much excitement I've got from the 2 bosses I met, they're so bubbly and chirpy........... I got so happy talking to them about it hehehehe. From questions on sewing to backstage to handling costumes to laundry to work culture and even Ziying, they gave me a I WANT TO START WORK NOW impression! Have never been to any interview more comfortable and casual as this one. ^^ Hahahahahaha! Talked about Ziying girl because I mentioned a friend's inside and she's under Production. "Oh Ziying! she's (insert no. of praises).... (insert more praises)............ the other day I saw her.... (insert more praises)" Hahahahahahaha I KNOW RIGHT I'VE WORKED WITH HER AND SHE'S GOOOOOD :D Its been a while I've got such energy from strangers and if they're my bosses, I bet the staff inside are whacky!!!!!! Meals and shuttles provided, late nights = transport provided or taxi fare to be claimed. Anddddd they are paying OT. Cues song *I gotta feeling, wooooohooooooooooo*

#2 AMC Asia - My impression wasn't very good with this events company in the first place because they dumped me from the Creative Team to Account Servicing. No not Accounts can't do Math for nuts remember, but Account. Like, liaison? Public relations? In charge of a project (read: account) and liaise with clients. I was thinking, did they even read my CV? Decided to give a second chance went down again and talked to one of the managers. Fuck, then I got to know.... (here comes the good part) their projects are based overseas (clients like Mercedes Benz, Nokia, Singtel) and most of the time they travel to work for events in countries like China, Thailand, BARCELONA for 1-2 months. Allowances, accommodation and tickets by company, flat salary, no OT and other transport claims. Work hours are flexible. If you're working till late, they don't expect you to be in office at 9 tomorrow, late an hour or two its okay. Lots of give and take here.

How to make decisions, you tell me? One is passion, the other's well, something I can do and definitely meet people from all over the world. Very honestly speaking, Universal Studios has the upper hand hahahahahahaha because yours truly is a sucker for theme parks and all things Disney or magical fantasy characters. I have been rattling on how much I want it and checking my phone subconsciously just in case 6577 appears again.. Now that it's confirmed. I need to make decisions. My dad says "好来不来,两个一起来。。。!!“ Not complaining, I'm Thankful :D

Salmon steak, caesar salad, chicken and juices.. Lunch with bestie was awesome today!



Did some catching up by the pool and passed him an under-estimated-size gift but went to get the correct one together later hahaha. Was yakking all the way about *cough* embarassing *cough* wannabes and moments over the past weeks. Happy 23rd birthday buddy, you're old hahahahaha! X X X

Okay will write again, gonna go out to find food! (Been eating like a pig hehehe)

Quickly come to THE END

Things that made me smile were tertiary school, graduation, graduation showcase, knowing I could do things I never really considered venturing into, Pa buying me macbook, meeting nice strangers, strangers to friends, fact that I got a job upon graduation, earning my own money and swiping my card like nobody's business then find myself broke later (but happy), partying my heart out and being a bum, two countries for holiday back to back, flight take offs, air plane meals, wearing a dress in winter with my barbie pink coat with matching knitted hat and scarf, eating like a king, went to heaven on earth, putting on 1.5kg, coffee talks, alone time, thinking, girl friends, boy friends, friends, family

I hated my job, fact that it took almost 6 months for me to realize am better off without, hate being under somebody's thumb, eating alone, sudden bad skin, tan lines I'm now trying to get rid off, the thought that I wanted to be weaker for once, COMPARISON, thinking too much, being depressed for this society that's not even worth, hate the word Trust, not fitting into my obnoxiously glitter heels, being seriously broke, not getting VIP treatments at clubs (hahaha)

Hmmm I thought I hated 2009 but it seems like positive overruled. Whatever, can't wait for 2010. Sun's going to shine so bright it'll hurt star's going to glitter till you turn blind. Valerie Sim is going all out FULL FORCE

In case I forget, Happy New Year :)
