I'm way over it before you did.

Oh man. Same old font. This is getting bored, can't they have a new kind of font I can use. Don't blame me for nagging, this is what happens when you have so many days of holiday and you're not working.

Caution people if you are ever finding a job, never get a flyer distribution door-to-door job!!!

I did this like on thursday and I'm aching all over. It's a job that's paying peanuts for hard labour! Now my arms are aching and my tighs are aching. sobs. In the middle of this door-to-door flyer stuff, we were asked to sell some chocolate hazelnut cookies. I didn't try it, was having sore throat, still coughing now though. Anyways, Kimi and I tricked that guy saying we didn't earn from selling the cookies which we did, quite an amount for the hour by selling to people. He really believed us. How dumb.

The whole day, 1048 doors, 7 blocks, blocks with long corridors, real long. Old houses at Clementi. I skipped 2 doors. One because there's paint over I was afraid anyone would appear in front of me with a chopper so I just hurried off. The other one with a bee buzzing just in front of the door not budging. My bag filled with heavy flyers on my shoulder as though I'm carrying what you see in cartoons, the 1000tons weight. That caused the aches. Didn't really rest and didn't take lunch. Totally fell asleep in Kimi's dad's car. The both of us. The 1 hous trip from chinese garden stop to my house. It felt great to sleep. It was a hot weather and I was sweating so much that my whole top was wet. So sticky. It was even worse than napha, or even training. Which I already quit from archery. No more CCA for me. That's how I spent my thurs.

The worse of all, we have to work at least 3 days to get our pay. If not we don't get anything for this treachous journey. Let me tell you the pay. Ranging from $18 to $22 for 1000 doors. You need at least 4 hours to do 1000 doors or maybe even 5. It's even worse than jobs paying $4.50/hr. Hard Labour!!! Not sure if Kimi wants to continue the next 2 days. I'm still laying around at home, watching my mum and my sister making mooncakes today. Tastes ok. Not too bad actually.

Oh well. I wanna watch underdog... See ya...

One week. It's been one week and i'm still at home. Well I spent my mon, tues, thurs at suntec city, training for my ducktours. Wed still training, but at home. Personal training. My soft toys had to be my tourists. XP. Well I gave up in the end. I know I tried my best and I really dread to go for anymore trainings.
Mon...
Took a train with Kimi to suntec. Late...
Well, just interview at that time and it's with my sis so I guess it's ok.
After interview, just trips. Trips and trips. Took one duck followed by the other. I think we took 5. Had lunch around 2+. Suppose to report back at 3, in the end we missed the time. Had to fill up the trip we missed, so we took the 6-7 one. All in total, 5 trips on Monday. That's it. Took Edmund's and cheryl's. I think.
Day 2. Tuesday.
I think we were late again. Next day suppose to take a few more rides then start talking in order to assess. We got onto this person's one whom we almost vomit blood. I think we got onto Lydia's one first. Then next was Tam/Tham. Either one. Don't know how to spell. We almost felt like boxing her. I was assessed by her which I only talked for like 1/4 of the ride. Then ride and listen to her feedback. In the end, I got 3/10. Sad. Oh well. Kimi didn't want to try. We talked for a while just on the duck with the mike, just the 3 of us and some captains walking in and out. Then after about half an hour, Kimi and I left after talking to my sis about the feedback then we went to Plaza Sing for pool. Went for lunch which I didn't finish and then pool. That was the most tiring pool game I've ever had. Almost fell asleep.
3rd day. Wed.
Rest day at home for personal training. Talked to my soft toy and a recorder. Locked in my room. Bi guan xiu lian.
4th day. Thurs. My final day.
Went on a trip. Talked for a tour, the whole hour. Then Lydia gave feedback. Talked about where I need to improve. Then took hers and continued on feedback. A little break for bread which I didn't finish. Then last 2 trip, 5-6, 6-7. I talked for the 2 whole trip. Some bells for the 5-6. The last trip, 6-7.I'll never forget it. It's an achievement I guess. I had tips and the person said she enjoyed. Some took pictures with me. Although it was just 10 people at that time, it was sufficient. Bells too. Asked to go for training the next day which I'm totally turned off. I guess I really felt entertaining was not really my forte. So I just gave it up. The tiring whole thursday. I really would like to thank those who helped me especially Lydia for her patience. Her teachings. Thanks. Well I guess I have to look fo a job now. Adios...
