$$ = :)

alright. i finally found myself a job. went for the interview last week. n guess what. it's another door to door sales n marketing company - granton singapore ptd ltd.
initially i was turned off when i realise that it's a door to door job. but becos im alrdy v broke. so i got no choice but to keep an open mind n see what the job can offer me.
well the pay is gd. i'll get 10-15 bucks for every sales i close. n the items involved r discount cards for some of the established restaurants n beauty centers. restaurants like fig & olive n organic cafe n etc. beauty centers like adonis n mary chia n etc. n the card allows the user to have 1 for 1 offer or discount for the main course n free/discount facial services. sth like that.
obviously this company is way much better than NC. when i was in NC. i only get 3-5 bucks per sale. normally i'll hit 5 sales n earn around 20 bucks. so if i want to earn 30 bucks for the day. i got to hit 10 sales.
from my experience i can say that 10 sales is v unlikely in 2-3 hrs. unless there's a v gd reason for the customer to buy the item. can any1 come out with a gd reason y the customer should buy a ridiculous box of pencils or photo frames? lol.
however in granton. i just have to hit 3 sales to earn that 30 bucks. n if i hit 5 sales onwards. it'll be 15 bucks per sale. cool right? i mean it's easy. trust me. a trained monkey can do 2-3 sales per day. :) furthermore at the end of the mth. if my total pay is less than 600 bucks. they'll top it up for me. lol. i wonder if it's true or not.
anyway. the items n $$ in granton seems appealing to me. so i thought to myself y not i give it a try. since i've got door to door sales experience b4. so it shouldnt be much of a problem to me to hit a few sales. 3 sales a day should be ok for me.
so far i've worked for 1 week. i was kind of rusty for the 1st few days. but after a few practices it's was ok for me alrdy.
for my 1st few days. i was trained by this guy n he's v gd. he has got the motivation n the ppl skills. it's the 1st time i've seen such a gd sales person b4. it's his ppl skills that impressed me. lol. n later on i came to knew that he's so gd becos he's got 30 over yrs of sales exp. no wonder haha.
after the few days of training. i was left alone. although sometimes he'll help me out with 1 sales. anyway i got myself a few sales. earned a bit of $$. n i'll be taking my pay on monday. hehe.
i dont know how long i'll stay in the company. even though the pay n item is gd. i dont like the working days. got to work 5 days per week. i'll try to negotiate to 4 days. hopefully they'll allow.
sem exams r coming in 3 weeks time. got to study alrdy. hopefully they can cut the working days to 4. so that i've time to prepare for my exams b4 the revision week. lucky they allow me to take leave during my exam period. or else i'll be quiting v soon. lol.
hmm so far my plan seems to be on track. once the pay is coming in i'll carry on with my next step. maybe i'll find a myself a v pretty girlfriend. lol! just joking lah. :P anyway i doubt i'll have time for a relationship now. becos there r so many things i want to do. but well we'll see. but 1st i got to get my 1st step right. so just relax n be cool. hehe.
ok i'll stop here. to be continued.. :D

T.T

this week has been a demoralising week for me. becos of my term test results. as expected not a single A's. :(
i dont know if im expecting too much or what. but i study to get an A. or at least a B. i did get a few B's though. for my INTCN n MATH.
im satisfied with these results. just that it frustrates me when i know i could have got an A instead. careless mistakes pull my marks down for my math paper. i got the whole qn wrong just becos i forgot to put a bloody power. the qn is so simple yet i got it wrong. damn it.
as for INTCN. just becos i forgot to study 1 part of the tutorial n it prevented me from getting A. of all the qns in the tutorial. y must the lecturer set that particular qn i missed out? omg. how unlucky can i be. zzz.. y am i always so unlucky..?
for SPOW paper. i knew i was too slow n i spent too much time correcting the careless mistakes. so i only got a 50/100 marks. that paper was so easy that i can safely say about 90% of the class got either A or B. yet im 1 of the the few that got a shit result. omg. that's so discouraging.. :(
i was shock to get my AUXM n MEK2 results. didnt expect myself to get 50+ for both of them. was expecting 60+ for both actually. i got so disappointed that i didnt even bother to look thru the paper to see what went wrg.
another matter is that my 1st n favourite adidas shoe is spoilt n the sole came out! initially i thought i could repair it myself or if not i can always look for a cobler to help me out. becos i just need to get a glue to stick back the sole to the shoe. but what im afraid was that the glue may "disfigure" my shoe if it's not done properly.
anyway. i dont know y. but my father just took the initiative to repair the shoe himself. n now it's being disfigured by the slimmy yellowish glue! argh!
i mean i appreciate his help but u know.. sigh.. all i can say now is bye bye to my adidas shoe that has been with me for 5 yrs. :(
i'll stop here. to be continued.. :( :( :( :(

Random

yawns.. life without laptop is soooo boring. i miss my laptop badly. :( no laptop = no dota. no l4d. no fifa. no games. no music. no entertainment. omg. zzz..
been looking for a job. but couldnt find a suitable 1. i've been repeating this for so many bloody times. it's so damn annoying. n when i found a suitable job. i went for the interview but wasnt shortlisted. what's wrong huh?
got to come up with a ppt presentation next month for our FYP project. n our team haven even started to do anything yet. sigh.. it's giving me lots of stress. got to do sth about the project fast.
mid sem test also v troublesome. i heard that there r a lot of failures. n i hope that im not 1 of them. u know no matter how bad it is for me. i should at least get a border line pass. it's not like i cant do the paper. in fact i was able to ans most of the qns. just that im not v sure for the ans for like 2-3 qns. i believe i can get a gd grade.
but well. if i really fail. then i guess i got to nothing to say. sigh.. whatever lah.
i'll stop here. to be continued..

Yr 3 Mid Sem Test :(

roar!! mid sem test is finally over haha. been mentally stress out for the past few days. :( n so. now it's the time to wreck havoc n relax. hehe!
well. im kind of disappointed that i didnt do v well for the term tests. becos i didnt get any A's. :( i guess i'll most probably be getting B's for all the modules instead. even though the results r not released yet. but i can somehow estimate how much im going to get.
u know it's kind of frustrating that u study for the modules but in the end u didnt score well.
i made a lot careless mistakes for the SPOW paper. n i spent so much time correcting the mistake that i dont have enough time to finish the paper. i mean i was able to do all the questions. i just need more time. but sadly.. sigh..
MATH paper was kind of smooth for me. just that i didnt know how to integrate 2 qns. n guess what. the 2 qns cost me 15 marks! just 2 qns u know. omg. how on earth am i going to get an A for a 50 marks paper like this. zzz..
INTCN was ok for me. just that i forgot to study 1 part of some topic n i missed out a few v crucial marks. n i really mean v crucial. damn it. hate myself for being so forgetful.
n then for MEK2 n AUXM. even though i hate to memorise. i make it a point to put in the effort to study. n i seriously dont understand y do the lecturers love to set a few ridiculous qns which obviously i couldnt answer haha. but overall i should be getting B's for these modules.
n btw. did i mention that i didnt have the lecture notes to study for AUXM. becos i forgot to print it. lol! but fortunately the teaching ppt slides can be found on the blackboard online. though the slides r not as detailed as the lecture notes. but at least i have smth to study. if not i dont know how im going to survive the test. lol!
lesson learnt: i cant afford to be so forgetful n careless again. once beaten twice shy. there's always a price to pay for a mistake.
studies aside. my laptop has been sent to acer hq for repair for the past 1 week n it will only be rdy for collection after around 3 weeks. n i've been feeling v uncomfortable becos all my gaming activities has come to a halt. it feels like decade since i last game. :(
but on the other hand. i feel that this is a gd chance for me to acquire new habit rather than gaming. furthermore i also realise that the ppl around me dont game much either. i mean it's ok to game for like 2-3 hrs once a while. but not everyday. so yep. i'll see what i can do about it. im 19 yrs old alrdy. time to grow up.
alright i'll stop here for now. to be continued..
