Past week and my new part time job @ Gardens by the Bay

Well, it has been long since i last posted around a week? Not sure if that is long to anyone but it is to me. I've been really busy as i just started my new job at Gardens by the Bay aka GBB as a temp retail staff.

Night scene when i was on my way home after work
On Thursday when i first had my B shift - Super Trees
View from Dragonfly bridge yesterday - Sorry slightly blur as i was brisk walking while taking it!
As this is my first retail job (previously all my jobs were related to FnB), i was worried i wouldn't do a good job or i might die or something, i almost could not sleep last last Sunday. However, all was unexpected and it was quite fun as it was not as tough as the FnB industry and also, there were lots of aunties who were hell of a funny and they are very nice.

Very nice Horlicks Ball icecream by Udders - sold in Gardens by the Bay

I first gotten this job as the advert wrote BUGGY DRIVER but, because they only need a few drivers and there were two other guys who interviewed the same job as me, they got chose for buggy while i suey suey kenna retail (It is a fun experience though). Luckily, the supervisor said that i might have a chance to help the buggy so all is fine! What matters most is i get my pay and then i will use it to travel and write more blog!

Back-tracked to 17th of May 

I went to Gu Ma Jia at around Macpherson/Potong Pasir to have dinner with my Dad, sis and Grandma for a belated Mother's Day because, as Singaporeans we are very kiasi (scared die) so we want to save more money and we heard that usually during Mother's Day, such restaurants have awesome promotions such that there will be a lot of richer people going there to eat. So, we went on 17th instead. (We love this place by the way even though it is quite expensive for us).

Broccoli with scallop
Ha Chong Gai aka Prawn Paste Chicken (One of my Favs)
Chilli Crab! - Avesomeness overflowing but i prefer salted egg crab
See how frigging big the claw is! - The crab weighs 1.75kg (So frigging fat)
Thick, Juicy and Filled with delicious Crab Meat! Omnomnom
We had a Marmite Pork Ribs as well but once it reached the table, my dad chiong(rush) eat the thing so the result was not very nice to take pictures with. Why i mentioned i preferred Salted Egg Crab but still we order Chilli Crab is because my Grandma loves Chilli Crab and also its Mother's Day mah, i also never give birth to any one so cannot decide on the food. Only Mothers can (only specially on this day)! But asshole px still ordered the food she want (the frigging ex broccoli) and my dad (marmite pork ribs)!

I shall kindly forgive them because i was not the one who paid, my dad did. If i was the one who pay, i will bring them to a place where it is cheaper and the food is just as nice. You might think i sound very cheapo/auntie/stingy/anything you want to say but, i am still only 20, with a wide future, i should save while i can so in the future i would not suffer (My mother teach one). 

For anyone who wants to visit Gu Ma Jia, address is below. Their food is good, please try if you got money. Those with no money maybe next time i try find a cheaper version with good food and reco to you guys.

Gathering with the Ladies @ Nex

Met up with the whole clique for a short dinner at Nex on the 14th (Like finally)! The Ladies consisting of the Ah Lian, Ah Ma, Good Girl, Smart Girl and Slacker(Me) were from Sengkang Sec aka SKSS '10. We do not meet often and even if we do, one or two will be missing due to work or personal reasons so the last time we actually met in whole was like last year! 

The Cast
  • Ah Lian is our very famous girl from SK. If you say her name, probably the teachers who taught in the school during our period will know her (She is that famous!).
  • Ah Ma is our very nice student counselor (They dun actually counsel anyone) aka Prefect. She is call Ah Ma(Grandma) because she looks slightly older which she herself admit so she sometimes call us Sun Nu(Granddaughter)
  • Good Girl is good girl who turn not very good recently. Used to be quiet and soft spoken in sch but maybe the poly and uni air affected her so she very tokgong recently can shoot people liao.
  • Smart Girl is forever smart and the busiest. Very hard to meet up with her as she is a teacher, also has her church stuff so we always try our best to ask her to meet up by not clashing with her schedule
  • And of course me as a Slacker simply because i used to hate studying and doing homework.

Wefie with Ah Ma. OH MY TEETH LOOK SO WHITE (No filter by the way)
We had Fish & Co for dinner!
My FOOD! - Chicken, Swordfish Collar, Mash Potato and Rice!
This section is like a very boring section because i'm just trying to fill the post! But still, i had a great gathering with them and i missed them already. Wonder when am i going to meet them again as i just started work and am really busy.

But anyways, bye for now. Maybe when i'm free, i will update the very long ago travel posts!
