hello my dearest blog, i’m back from the land of the dead or or was it undead? it doesnt matter anymore…i’m just happy that i came back alive with no missing limbs and with a sane mind…for the past 3 months, i’ve been working my ass off in this hotel with great ppl who eventually became my best frens n i’m trully grateful for that…
many things happened during my internship but there was one incident that will engrave in my memory till d end of time…when i was doing my internship at a japanese restaurant, i poured so much white wine into my guest’s glass dat his other frens were left with very little wine to drink…as a result, i got scolded terribly by my assistant manager…at dat moment, i only wished to rush back to my locker, changed my uniform n go home to cry my eyes out but alas, my tears werent that patient…they rolled down my cheeks while i was on my way to d locker room…sigh…
anyway during my internship, i always felt the urge to compare myself with the trainess who had undergone their training there longer than i did n i was bloody stupid for doing such a comparison coz needless to say, they were better than me by far…knowing that i was much more inefficient than them, i was constantly haunted by d thought that my superiors would deem me as d lousiest trainee in their restaurant but all dat changed on my last day in dat restaurant..
you see, my manager has this habit of treating trainees whom she deems deserve to have a free dinner in dat restaurant on his/her last day…anyone who got that kinda privilege should feel honoured because he/she has been considered a hardworking trainee who truly deserves a free dinner there…just when i was convinced that i’ll never be one of those lucky trainees, my manager suddenly pulled me aside, asking me what i wanted to eat…i was sOOOoooOOOoo shocked that i didnt know wat i wanted to eat so i told her dat it’s ok n i din wanna eat anything..,however, at her insistence, i finally has 2 soft shell crab sushi, 2 rawn tempura and 1 bowl of udon to go with em…having dinner with her in a huge ass tatami room was so overwhelming that my mind went blank for a few minutes…it’s so sad that she’ll be retiring on my birthday…i’m sure a lot of trainees will miss out on having such a nice superior like her..
now on the bleak side of this internship, as a gal, being sexually harassed by her horny colleagues is inevitable…there was a baby-faced cook in the restaurant who gave me his phone number willingly…looking like a harmless guy, he didnt seem to have any hidden agenda so i just accepted his number without thinking twice…after exchanging a few smses, i was shocked to discover that he only wanted to have a 1 night stand wid me…he kept on pestering me to go to his house n if i said no, he’d taunt me by saying i’m a coward…coward then coward la…i’m not gonna do it wid some fat ugly gorila like him..
speaking of gorila, the real gorila is his best fren…he tackled me wherever i went…everywhere i turned, i’d see his vomit-inducing face…things got so bad that at one point, when he asked me why i didnt like him, i shouted ” BECAUSE YOU’RE SO DAMN UGLY” right in front of his frens..i purposely humiliated him that way so dat he’d stop harassing me…i know wat i did was wrong but did i have a choice? thank god he stopped talking to me after dat..
my action only made me regret when i went back to this japanese restaurant to have buffet brunch wid my frens…he was manning the tempura stall n being a big fan, it was a torture for me being unable to get d tempura myself…i had to rely on my frens to get d tempura for me T.T haih…i felt like a disabled person..
moving on to the second department which was banquet sales department, i considered myself very lucky to have such a friendly boss who unfortunately, always got bullied by d female staff coz he was d only male staff there…on my 2nd day there, i remember he “tricked” me to go for a ride in his car…barely knowing this fella, i was so damn scared he’d take me to a secluded area to rape me or something…instead, he took me to a nice malay restaurant n told me to order whatever i wanted from d menu…not wanting to wate his money, i eventually ordered 1bowl of ice-cream n 1 honeydew juice…while having our meals, we chatted a lot things, from work to love…hahahaha…told u dat he’s cool…
everything went well until he got back from his raya holidays…he looked kinda moody n i could see he was trying his best to put on a calm face…after much interrogation from me, he finally spilt his guts out…turned out dat his gf of 9 years suddenly wanted to settle down but she refused to convert to islam for him…so madly in love wid her, he gave her d option to get married wid him in UK only to have this proposal slammed down by her, saying that she wants to be legally married wid him in msia…d worst part is she is giving him d silent treatment now even though he didnt do anything wrong…with my help, my boss sent a heartfelt sms to her, begging her to come back to him but he got zero replies from her…sigh, i really do hope they could work things out together because it’s such a waste to throw a 9-yr relationship down d drain just like dat..
on an unrelated matter, i went to see a fortune teller at The Curve last saturday..at furst sight, he looked like clueless man who had a high chance of getting his predictions wrong..i was proven otherwise when he told me that i dun like to forgive n forget, i get jealous easily, i worry too much, i like to rely on my parents, i’m close to my bro and dat i’m romantic…BINGO ! he got all dat right ! he even advised to stop worrying so much coz he could foresee dat i’d worry a lot about my house n car in future…i was also advised to try working in the management part in a company coz dat’s my forte..i tell u, dis guy is damn good as previously i was in a dilemma whereby i couldnt decide whether i should work in operation or management n he just solved my problem without even needing me to tell him my problem in d first place…one last surprise he sprang at me was dat i was gonna get married around 30…up till now, i can’t accept this prediction coz i know damn well dat i’d rather focus on my career than having myself enslaved to something called love n worse, getting myself tied down to it by getting married to some guy…speaking of which, i’d like to see who is dat fella who will manage to persuade me to settle down wid him…i bet he’s an experienced smooth talker in this case…seriously, i’m so curious to know who dat bloody fella is…anyway, fingers crossed dat this prediction/curse won’t come true…i have too many dreams to chase to settle down…
