WOOOOOO~~~~~~~
Had the time of my life celebrating count down at The American Club!!! SO high!
Took pictures and stuff...
Firstly, when i came to work... business was as usual at the afternoon... but luckily i was pull by Mohana to do the flower arrangements... Bavani said during that time when i was at the office doing up the flowers, the poolside was damn busy and people was asking where i was as well... hahax... Then after i finish the arrangement, when i went back to the poolside, the poolside was closed, so i did not have to do much serving..hahax... then we had a briefing on the countdown party later on... the place was done up and stuff... so freaking nice!!!
Then... the party really begins... there was music, magic shows and stuff.... and FOOD!!!
My job at the party was to go around giving people party hats and mask... as it was a masquerade party!!!
OMG!!! there is so much to tell... blog tomorrow... so tired!

I was like... wth... so this is the drink... then on the way back to my work place... my co-worker all stare at the drink i am holding and ask me what was that.. so funny la.... Tomorrow is the count down party... if i am not wrong... American club is doing a Masquerade Party... cannot wait... HIaz... but tomrrow still got work... 2007 is going to be gone so soon... Recapping back... this year was quite a year... with the change in environment going into poly... and working... all so new to me... i will never forget the robbery that i witness this year at watson during my working time at Hang Ten... all the people that i meet at the American club and Hang Ten... i do miss the times that i work in Hang Ten... all the in charge and worker...like... I will miss those people... so many memories... happy times now that i think about it... hope 2008 will be much much better and fun.... ::CheRyL::
Yesterday... I was working in the same shift as Namira's friend, Mishel (i think this is how to spell her name)... It was kinda busy... especially with the buddy i had... had no idea why i need to have a buddy (a buddy is like your babysitter at work, to teach and guide you) again??? hey, i didn't have a buddy for the last 2 day... but suddenly i had one again... and i sort of hated him... so bossy... worst of all is that i cannot understand a word he say... haiz... dunno why was i put to service station all of a sudden... I dun even know how to take orders la... and he made me learn... so stressful... but luckily i had mishel on my shift as we can chit chat awhile..wahaha... i got in touch with alcoholic drinks again... as usual... kinda feel like a beer waitress... i am serving more drinks than food... anyway... i got in touch with this drink called SUMBUCCA... I had totally no idea how it look like until yesterday... My Co-worker Alex asked me to take it for him at the Union Bar... The Union Bar like a place where people go drinking at the club... SO i knew where it was and so he asked me to go take the SumBucca from the staff there... The story goes like this:
Alex: Cheryl, you know where is the Union Bar?
Me: Erm... i think so... upstairs right...
Alex: Ya. Can you go there and take the Sumbucca from there?
Me: Erm... OK I'll try...
So i ran upstairs the club as the bar was above my work place... i went into the Union Bar and saw one of the staff there... so i approach him. His name is Michael.
Me: Erm... one customer ordered a drink... erm... called Sumbucca...
Michael: Sumbucca... OK... what shot? On the rock or clean?
Me: erm.... i have no idea... he just say sumbucca...
Michael: which member? The name?
Me: erm.... i have no idea too...
Michael: who ask you come and take the drink?
Me: Eh... Alex... ya Alex...
Michael: OK... call Alex and ask him what shot...
Me: He says Clean shot...
Michael: OK... I'll make now..
He began making the drink... the drink is like in a glass... it is only filled like 2 sips of the liqueur and 3 coffee beans is being added... then he stopped there... i was waiting for him to continue...
Michael: there... done
Me: erm... that's it?
Michael: Ya...
Cheryl: ohhhhh.... so this is sumbucca... ok thanks...

SOOOO tired.... Juz came back from work... today was sorta fun though... When i went to work, I saw the Workers doing up the tent/ shades at the PoolSide, so the service tables was kinda close for a short while like 10Min's... But i dunno why today got quite a number of people at the poolside and damn lots of kids.... I was like wishing that the time could pass faster... Then the summer camp kids came to the poolside for lunch with the Summer Camp "leader". But luckily we didn't have to serve them nor clean up after them, if not i would die! But they were quite cute.. 2 of the Summer camp leader are American and they are quite cute... but... so not my type as one got curly hair (i will not guys date guys with curly hair, my preference kinda thing), and the other one looks younger than me...
Dunno whether want to continue working at the American club when my school terms starts anot, as i am kinda stress just thinking that i have to learn how to take orders and stuffs... Well... The name of the food there is like so confusing, not simple names like chicken rice or noodles and stuff... they have names like Tostadas??? and stuff... The only food name that i know so far is the kids Yankee Corndog and Macaroni and Cheese and Pizza... Even the drinks make my head spin... apart from all the milkshakes and stuff... we have to serve drinks and beer as well... i have no idea for all the other drinks names except for Tiger and Heineken beer... But i cannot pour them yet... that is thina's job... There was this old man that i was serving today, he ask for 2 different beer brands from me and i was like huh?... i had no idea what that was, so in the end the beer that he wanted was out of stock, so he juz get a mug of tiger instead... and his son was like asking me for A glass of double Margarita on the rock without salt such a long name for one drink and the worst of all... i had to remember his club member number which consist of alphaberts and numberand his orders... i was like so lost... but lckily he gave me his member card to swipe instead so i was so saved...
There was also this middle age man, he keeps drinking the whole afternoon away... he had white wine and tiger beer one after another... another man whom wants to waste his life...haiz...
Oh ya... next monday is the end of december... COUNTEDOWN Party! haha
i hope me and bavani got the count down party shift... Kalai say that in mon, which is also the count down party day, everybody will be working, i hope i get the party shift, and not the morning shift... i hope we don't have to work for the whole day... i'll be so tired... bavani say that her father said that he will bring us around... i hope the azhar puts us on the same shift... if not, i will curse him! cannot wait to party on with my Co-workers and American in the American Club! I notice that working in the American club, you have to smile alot to the customer and Co-worker... everybody is just so friendly... There is this little girl who is so sweet... i was clearing another table beside hers and when i was done and was about to go, she wave to me and said something. i didn't hear what she say clearly (she was round 4-5 yr old) so i went beside her and she whisper to my ear "Merry Christmas"... so sweet.... Just walking along the corrider and passing by customer, alot of them will just smile and say hello even though i don't know them or have never seen them before.
There is also this young man working in the youth club, i don't know him personally, but he seems to know me...hahax... everytime i walk past him, he will call out my name... all i can do is smile at him as i really don't know him and i don't even know his name... Tomorrow have to work again.... sian... hope time flies faster when its my shift and i can go home sleep...
Can't wait to celebrate Count down at the CLUB!!!
How i wish i don't have to put up a strong front,
How i wish U will be there when my tears roll...

WAHHHHHHH, so darn tired!!! Only 2 day working at the American club and i am soooooo tired!!! Yesterday was OK, me and bavani worked for 3 hrs only, so roughly we just learn the table coding and table setting, this sort of stuff. AND, there is so many guys la, no girls... till now i count for yesterday and my shift today... i saw a total of 4 girls... including me and bavani!!! there is so many guys!!! The roster planner dude plan me and bavani on different days and shift, damn him la, means i had to work alone today!!! I was SUPER BORED, Practically spent 3-4 hours standing there doing nothing. I was on the 8 hours shift today, can u imagine! For the rest of the time i was busy occupying myself with running in and out of the bowling alley, countless times ( guarantee more than 20 times)... and serving the customer that is at the pool for dinner and tea time! oh man! i hate the 8 hours shift, i was dehydrated for 5 hours! i never want to work another 8 hours shift!!!! I want to be transferred to the kids club! But meet and make alot of people thought... like Enrico, Nesser, Kalai, Dass, Roy, Sylvia and more(dunno spell their name correctly anot)... and meet alot of American people.... I saw this small boy today, he is like damn cute.. he had blue puppy dog eyes and blond hair, he was just sinfully adorable! There is also another boy, he wore a shirt showing "chick magnet" an He was running around in front of me and waving to me, so cute!
I notice that alot of American like to drink beer and wine in the noon time, or whatever time it is... i keep serving them alcohol... i just hate the smell of beer, so bitter!
There was this 2 teenage American boys, they ordered like 1 jug of beer in the noon time... can u believe it, as i watch them drink, i was thinking that they are wasting their lives, their liver. as drinking is not a good thing to me as it spoils the liver and i am not a big fan of beer! i believe both of them are regular drinker as they are not drunk after one jug and can walk and talk on the phone while drinking a jug! Wasting their lives... haiz...
I also notice the difference between American and Singaporeans... American usually gives in to their kids demands, like ice cream and stuffs, they get their kind milk shakes and smoothies and ice cream, just whatever things they want, without the kid putting up a fight, but Singaporean parents won't, they will say that too much ice cream will get cough and stuff... haiz... same human beings but leading different lives!!!
Blog next time when i have the chance... i am too tired now!
When you are ready, i am not;
When i am prepared, you are not;
Will this be the ending of our story?
