Before you, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars - points of light and reason. And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.

slow day


today was a nice and slow day for me.. i began my day with a breakfast that i cooked myself from the restaurant, at my workplace.. haha!! SCRAMBLED EGGS!! and BACONS!! and of course.. my favourite.. PANCAKES!! i don't know why.. but i'll kick into high mode when there is pancakes...

then after that, a scroll back to my room.. haha!! taking everything slowly.. it's sad to see that my department on the edge of closing down... but they have no choice.. but at the same time, i can foresee that the kitchen will be very messy when they have to order their own meat..

after that, went out.. Chinatown for TANG YUAN!! another high kicker.. haha!! just love to eat tang yuan.. don't know why.. haha!!

as for yesterday and today, i have learnt that having a child-like faith is very important.. and that even SHORT PRAYERS do work TOO!!! someone that i know has even demostrated it to me for the past 2 days.. haha!! "Lord.. I pray that I won't get fat.." that prayer was the ultimate!! but i have to say this.. child-like faith is really important.. because if you don't have that, you will keep on thinking that the things that you wished for will not happen.. then in the end, you will just missed out in the blessing that God wants to give you.. take for example, that someone that prayed these SHORT PRAYERS has just got a bowl of tang yuan from me.. because i lost.. haiz.. that's a blessing..

another thing that i have learnt from the past week was to look on the inside and not on the outward appearance.. i learnt from the movie "Handsome Suit".. sometimes, looks may have a upper hand in confidence-wise.. but it's the inner character that is important.. because if you look handsome or pretty, but you have a very bad attitude or bad character, your looks will not even help much in you doing good.. but if you have a good attitude or character, but not having a good look, people will still admire you.. so having a good character and attitude is important..








SHORT PRAYER:
"Lord.. Bless everybody that i know.. In Jesus' Name.. Amen!" :D



Good Friday

as i have promised to write, and that also promised to write something special from the last entry, i shall write about:


It all started at:

7.55am - I have just reached my work place, and that i have just clocked in.. just in case you don't know what's clocking in.. that's to keep track that you come to work.. so when you don't clock in, NO PAY!! so ya.. being a GOOD boy and clock in.. haha!! after that, got my uniform and then of course.. CHANGE!!

8.00am - as usual, i would check my pigeon hole(now that i'm in charge.. HAHA!!) for any event orders and LAST MINUTE EVENTS(I HATE THEM!!).. and then open my office(actually not mine, but shared among 4 OVERGROWN GUYS and 1 UNDERGROWN BOY.. haha!! if you know what i meant) to get my first part of my paperwork done.. ordering of ingredients.. Boy, it's really tiring to do that early in the morning.. imagine you haven't really fully wake up and you have to face so much words and numbers.. and also have to think about what to order and stuff.. haha!! HEADACHE!!

8.30am - 10.30am - i went to my room(Okay.. this room is REALLY MINE!!!) and started to work.. checking all the current functions and things-to-do.. more HEADACHE!! during this 2 hours, it's like the most busy time for me.. because most of the meat and seafood comes in at this time.. so everything have to be kept and stored properly to avoid any spoiltage.. chicken, beef, fish and seafood.. i'm able to handle them now :D all thanks to God and His wisdom :D

10.30am - since most of the things were been done during the 2 hours of madness, at 10.30, things got slowed down by a big lot..

11.00am - normally, i won't want to find any breakfast.. but as for Good Friday, i was hungry.. so i went to pastry kitchen and to find my pastry chef.. BREAKFAST TIME!!! she told me that she had some Danish Pastry to be clear.. so i CLEARED them for her.. INTO MY STOMACH!! haha!!

11.15am - after eating and feeling full, i went back to my room to continue working..

12.30pm - after working for 4 and a half hours, it's finally...


1.30pm - i went back to work a bit, since i have completed most of it before lunch..

3.30pm - so by 3.30, my main job was done and packed up and cleaned and washed.. JOB DONE!! but i can't go home yet.. so....

3.30pm ~4.30pm - i went over to Pastry Kitchen to help out.. they needed more manpower to bake and make the cakes.. so here i was, baking and mixing and doing cakes.. haha!! it was really fun and there was lots of laughing and joking around..

5.00pm - when the clock strikes 5, i was like Cinderella, changed and TIME TO GO HOME!!!

that will be the working day on GOOD FRIDAY..


as for the pictures, i will post them up in another day...








i wish to watch more MOVIES!! craving for movies!!! haha!!!



I really don't get it....

haha!! for the past 9 months travelling to Harbourfront and then to Sentosa, early in the morning, it can be a very painful experience.. painful because, partly, i have to wake up early in the morning to catch the bus so that i won't get late to work.. another part of the painful is because..

people travelling to Harbourfront are mostly construction workers that are working at the new IR site, which is the Resort World.. and most of them are FOREIGN WORKERS.. and i really and seriously don't get it.. they would like to RUN and BANG into people once they are out of the train.. and some of them, once the door of the train opens, they are like running to get the bset bargin, running up the escalator.. as if they are like on the hurry.. i really don't get it.. why do they have to run and bang? and sometimes, STEPPING ON MY TOES!!! haha!!

i have learnt something out of the retrenchment exercise that has happened in my workplace.. anything can happen even you're a high position chef.. one of my chef has been retrenched.. so because of that, i have to take over his work..

in the beginning, i was really unwilling to do his work.. because i felt that it's really unfair for a trainee like me to do something that a high position chef does, such as writing market list, making decisions, doing everything myself, and being the one having all the responsibilites.. because the pay of a high position chef is about $3000-$4000 plus.. whereas, my pay, or should i say, allowance, is only $500 per month.. and that's without and benefits.. so it's really unfair..

but after working for like 2 weeks, stress bound to have builded up in me.. paperwork, decision to make.. so many times, i wanted to just take MC and just do what i can.. but after that, i felt that i'm just selfish, to think that way.. so now, i just do everything with my best, to glorify God, because God put me in position for a reason..

and for the past week, i have learnt something out of the work.. Time management.. how to plan things in the sense that i can do them fast and so that i cn go home early or on time.. it's really not easy to plan things.. because you'll never know what LAST MINUTE things that might show up..

another thing that i have learnt is that to think ahead.. another thing that is not easy.. but still trying hard to do it well.. :)

someone told me that always to have good attitude during work.. firstly, it's to show that you have God in you.. secondly, you will feel better while working.. :) and i just want to say a big thank you to that person.. you should know who are you.. :)

Good Friday is tomorrow and i still have to work.. so sad.. :(
but i'm going to something special!! :P
