OH SHITTTT!!! put the wrong size for all my pics! so you have to zoom in if you wanna see properly! so sorry, jsut realised AFTER i finished blogging :S
why hello ppl, i'm back to blogging after god-knows-how-long! :) been crazily busy, and this is the first time in ages that ive decided to just lay back, chill..
AND BE RANDOM, just because! ;D
working at starbucks is really an amazing experience! i really do enjoy working there (if only i wasnt that worried bout my schoolwork! argh!). my colleagues are nice and friendly (except one/two whom i think are a bit... off), its not very tiring, i get to talk to customers, i get free food and drinks, i get paid..
AHH! if only my contract was 12hours, that would be purr-fect-to!
your barista-to-be! :)
this was before my interview!
the day before my interview, 19th oct 07, was invited by norman for a sunway get together at his place! love his place lar! met up with xander there, his hair was long and curly omg! hhaha!
had fun catching up with them actually! by the time we went back, it was sooo late that the road was deserted. and i made ttt do this

ahhh, norman and xander were so sweet! they gave me xmas pressies!
first ever xmas pressies + card!
anyways, back to my job! apparently, starbucks holds their annual xmas party in jan (maybe cos xmas is like peak period for them to earn more profit?). so lucky me, get to go for it just after 2 weeks of working :p
thought it was gonna be some grand thing, cos it was at the dixie queen- a boat party along thames! even checked it up beforehand okay, and that made me expected more actually! you see for yourself, like quite high class right!
off i went, expecting a good meal.. mana tau, the food served were cold (!!!!) but still quite good for me la :P and it was basically like a clubbing event! argh! i want good food not dancing!
it was quite enjoyable nonetheless! one thing i noticed tho: you know how when we jsut started uni, everyone will ask like which country you from etc; at the boat party, when we meet new ppl, we'll go "oh so which store do you work at?" haha!! funny yeah?
introducing...
ronnie, my asst. store manager!
such a lovely guy, sweet talk quite a bit tho! hehe.
ambrogrio - supervisor!
he has gotta be the most patient guy i know man, when i make mistakes or anything, he'll be ever so considerate and kind!
quite got "attitude" too- when we were seating down i asked him "not checking any girls out?", he went "oh i dont find them, they come to me".
when i heard that, i was like whoa! ahaha. suddenly so manly! :P but at the same time i thought he was gay (really, womans intuition!!) cos he kept hanging out with this other guy ;S
me, roonie, natalie!
natalies a newbie like me! shes damn funny, married at 28, but still wanna stay single! hahah!
mounir and i!
firstly, before you start thinking what youre thinking, I AM JUST POSING!!
not smoking and never will in my life!
had quite a long chat with him, bout relationships and stuff, of all things! hahah. he was like "you know, must choose a guy properly, dont only have fun etc!"
this mounir is such a flirt! randomly talk to girls one! like this girl, she jsut randomly came up and took a pic of us, so in exchange i took a pic with her as well! :P
