Of going green..

Lately, I've been so drowned with work and assignments and studying for Mid-Terms and preparing for the International Varsity Games (IVG) organized by MASCA (Malaysian Association) till I had hardly time to take a breather. Mainly the killer is work since I started with the supper shift at Old Town Kopitiam. Working from 12am-6:30am bringing food to drunktards after they finish clubbing and also cleaning u after them, is hell.
Though its killing me, but I dont think I'll give it up, or not just yet. Just last week, I just had my wages raised at both the places I'm working. Though not much at Shuji Sushi, and a little more only at OldTown, but I'm really embracing the fact that my work is not going unappreciated or unnoticed.

Working in the F&B field, you're bound to get the funniest comments/replies/requests you'd ever see or hear. One of the most annoying one and the most common is when I'm working at Shuji Sushi where I get Mainland Chinese coming in to the shop.

Me: "Hi how are you?"
Customer: "I want a Teriyaki Chicken Roll please."
Me: "One Teriyaki Chicken Roll, anything else?"
Customer: "......"
Me: "Would you like that to have here or take away?"
Customer: "Yes."
Me: "Sorry, have here or take away?"
Customer: "Yes."
Me: *#$(*&^%*

But all in all, I'm enjoying the whole experience, earning those $ to pay off for my new toy, who I've yet to name. Yes, I just got myself a new toy! Well, since my Compaq finally took its last bow somewhere last week, I got my hands on the new early 2011 Macbook Pro! Owh yeah bayby! Finally after a few false alarm from the Compaq. Got the 13'' one with i5. Loving how you can swish and swoosh your windows on a Mac. And the backlit keyboard?! ftw! Still got alot to learn how to use the Mac though. Any one who's kind enough to give me tutorials?

My Mac in the dark. <3

The Apple Banana Crumble ShuHua made as my bday cake. Orgasmic!

So other than getting the Mac, another change recently would be how I went GREEN. So I turned 20 last week and the basketball gang and their GFs got me a new pair of shoes from Puma and also... GREEN HAIR DYE!! So I just bleached my hair two days ago and finally dyed it with the hair dye they bought me. Its just semi-permanent though. So it fades as you wash your hair. Still looks cool though! Here's how it looks like. Style is inspired by Victor Kim.

Took it while I was on my way to work. Have to clock in again in another 45 mins. Mid-night shift, and its Good Friday! God help us.

till my next post, Happy Easter!

Of turning un-teen


So its been ages since I've updated Baaaaym. Would like to apologise to those who constantly drop by for a check. Havent really found anything significant to blog about, most of my updates are up on Twitter and pictures taken with Blair are up Facebook. Am hoping this would be a post that'll get the ball rolling again.

So, turning 20, the leap from teenhood to manhood. Feels like a whole load just got piled up on my shoulders. All these 20 years, I've gone through so much, falling and standing up again; people I loved and lost. All these made me what I am and soon will become one day. At times I'd feel like I could just go back in time and change some of the chapters, but thinking it through, I wouldnt have lived my life any other way.

So this post goes to all those that played a part of my life. Thank you all so much for being there for me through thick and thin, ups and downs. Love you all heaps!
