wish came true
Tuesday, April 27, 2010
have you ever wish for something and hope that it came true?
must be most of the time right, be it conscious or unconsciously. sometimes when we get what we wish for might not mean anything. we're just saying it for the sake of saying. and how annoying it would be if we get what we dont want instead.
ok i should stop blabbering and go straight to the point.
on saturday, 24 april 2010, i was helping out at my parents stall in sengkang. i didnt know why but that day i decided to dress up. wasnt dragging to work. and my role for that day is to serve. in the day, there's a topic mother brought up saying that i was too choosy when it comes to choosing the guy that i want. i told her that i wasnt being choosy, its just that i have yet to meet the one.
day passed by so fast at abt 9pm, i decided to sit down facing outside and read magazine while mother and amirah did their usual thing. suddenly i heard a guy saying hello and waving at me as i looked up. ahhh its the 'less salt guy'. he's known among us to be the most good looking customer there. tall, great looking buffed body, little tan and friendly. he always ordered smtg and ends that item by saying less salt. which appearantly, mother didnt put any salt to his dish. so i went to him and he ordered mee soup less salt. when he was paying, he asked me where's my father cos usually he'll be standing either beside or behind me to observe us. i thought he asked that bcos he wanted to chat with father since thats what he usually does whenever he came over.
after finished his meal, he came over to the stall again and asked for jemput-jemput. when its time to pay, he put the coins slowly on the tray.. 50cents, 20cents, 10 cents, 10cents and 10 cents and took out a folded card and gave it to me saying "and this is my number!" immediately i can feel blood rushing through my face and i was blushing. face turned red and i cant stop smiling. i was stil in shocked when i turned around calling mother and everyone in the kitchen turned around and look at me.
i didnt call him that night. decided to call the following night at about 11pm after i'd freshed up and ready for bed. he didnt expect me to call at all. especially in the middle of the night. and i told him that i'd never thought he would give me his number either. i swear i didnt thought it would be a hint for him as i was just giving a politically correct answer. n he asked whether we were thinking of the same thing? like waiting for either ont to make the first move.. i couldnt be saying no even tho that was the real answer. infact, never did it cross my mind that i would be with my customer!
point blank, becareful of what you wish for cos it might just come true!
*im not saying that i wish for him n he did came. what i trying to say is.. ok maybe i need another post to elaborate.*

rejection
Saturday, April 24, 2010
follow up to my previous post update.
i actually REJECTED that job offer! cant believe i had the gut to do so. trust me, it was hard. i mentioned in my previous post that he called my father right? well the next day, at 10am, he called me! obviously i didnt pick up the phone. 10am and u expect me to ans an anonymous caller with my voice still sound sexy and delicate?? haha. so he called again at 11am. i answered. he introduced himself and asked me
boss: so.. are you hungry for the job??
me: oh hi. ermm.. im sorry but i dont think i want to accept your job offer.
boss: why is that so? is it bcos u had a better offer or you just dont want to cos u're planning to do smtg else?
in my heart i was like oh god, please help me! i cant possibly say i dont want the job becos your place is so ulu and scary and theres a huge temple outside which so far, theres tonnes of horror stories going on. so i said,
me: oh nahh.. its not that i had a better offer. its just that im not ready to start a real job.
after saying that, i remembered during the interview he said that even if im not prepared for a real job in this industry, i still need to start somewhere sooner or later. so damn, did i gave him the wrong reason.
oh wells.. whatever it is, life has to move on.

life after poly
Tuesday, April 20, 2010
just realised that i've not been updating my blog for more than 2 months! tsk tsk tsk..
anyways, life have been good so far. i'm done with school. no wait, im not done with school. but im done with poly. weehooo... waiting for the graduation ceremony on the 21 of may. uh huh and i bet during that season, most ppl will start to upload their graduation pictures on facebook!
as for now, i've enroled myself in class 3A driving and my goal is to pass by this year, inshallah.
last week on friday i went in for interview with a landscape company. the boss called me personally and said that he saw my works on the portal. imagine people, he called me on thurs, 8pm and arranged for an interview the next day at 4pm and my portfolio wasnt with me and i've not update them! haha. bummer. so the following day, i went to the office. he seems very relax and calm. friendly people. after much discussion, this was our ending conversation:
boss: so what do you think? want to accept this offer?
me: hmm.. job seems interesting. i'll think about it and give you the answer via email, say... next week??
boss: ok try to call back as soon as possible.
point blank, i cant imagine i said that! isnt that "i'll call you" line supposed to for employers and not employees?? haha. n just now he called my father asking abt me. but father said that im in johor now so theres no way he can contact me. wa lao. now i feel so bad.
conclusion?? not decide yet. should i take up this job or not?? what would be the polite way to reject that offer?
