work was great today! :D

yesterday was good coz this sweet indian girl (katusri- i got her name mixed with the mean girl!) gave me a lipstick! she's so sweet!! i didnt even ask for it, i just said i liked the metallic shine of it. "you like it ah? i never use it. here you can have it!" =D

today's great-- mark long the chef told me i looked super great when i smiled. yay! he's so nice and friendly. i never talk to angmohs like the way i talked to him, he's becoming like a friend. really nice. =D haha. and another waiter said in wonderment that i've grown prettier (all due to my makeup i guess), yay! haaa i felt like a million bucks there and then. also, i didnt get scolded. hurray!!! today the malay recep (ezann) is so nice to me. when i was scolded for placing the table setting wrongly, she came up to my rescue and said she had instructed me to set it that way (which was true). then the other girl relented and smiled ok. phew! at least she was there to take the blame. i always get a long face and a slightly foul mood when i get scolded.

i realised the waiters here are especially fond of winking. bahahaha! i couldnt do it. so i blink-blinked or smile back at them.

then there was patrick, this quite gangster big-sized guy from taman jurong who asked me many things today. he seemed happy that i was impressed with his two tattoos yesterday (which were fake, he told me today). so he asked me where exactly i lived etc, when damian (another quite-brotherly waiter) interrupted and said, "he wants to send you home on his motorbike..he thinks it's quite thrilling you know, but it's not good a thrill.. " HAHA! luckily he helped me, or else i would feel obliged to accept any invitations of a ride home. then patrick asked, "have you rode on a motorbike before?", sensing my discomfort. shaking my head i laughed and said no, i wont dare to. haha! first invite on a ride home. feeling alittle flattered.

and it feels super great to have waiters saying my name and smiling whenever they see me. =D and i dont even know their names!!! i better remember. one of the waiters (whose name i forget) came and asked me why i hid my tail, i said "may (she's manager) told me to keep it". then he said, "ahhh she must be jealous." haha! he's so sweet. **=D he's always making his presense known whenever he's near me.

im getting to find many of the waiters pretty handsome now. yikes. kinda scary coz they're they could be either attached, married or are malaysians.. so many of them are malaysians, it's kinda freaky. the chinese speaks in malay or some dialect i dont understand. indians speak in malay too lah. EVERYONE speaks in malay, except the angmohs. if a angmoh was going to sprout malay one day, i will FAINTZ. till today, i've never felt so outcasted as a minority before. they could burst into malay all of a sudden and then i was caught helplesss, defensive in case they talk bad about me.....

oohh!!!! this i must say. today i ALMOST received a tip of TEN BUCKS!!! goodness gracious! that's like 2 hours of work and alot alot of money. that guy is so sweet lah! haha. it was right underneath the plate that i was clearin, it felt like hitting lucky draw. really nice. i was so surprised, i immediately cried out, "eh!! $10 leh...!!" and immediately reynard swooped and picked the $10 from my hand. AHHHHHHHH. gone. swooooosh.

receps dont get tipped at all. :( so sad! i was helping the waiter to do his work at that time. :(

how i wish that i get tipped! i havent got a pleasant surprise in such a long time.

but anyways, really happy today. im starting to enjoy my new job finally.
