STARHUB!



when i juz received this assisgnment,
to work 7days from 9-15june,
i already planned to come out with a good lie for my tuition kid.
until last wed when my bro was packing for his kota trip,
then i thought: hmm.. camping isnt too bad an idea.

until last fri, when i got my schedule,
i realised i got 2days OFF!
and so coincidently,
these 2days fall onto my tuition days!!
lucky rite?

when i started the 1st few hrs ytd,
it was quite alright.
thinking tt its $7/hr,
and all we have to do is juz to give out pamphlet.
and we do not have a quota to meet.
WHAT A 'QING LIANG' job~

as hours passed by,
legs got pain.
very very pain.
but with the jokers around,
gabriel the idiotic, and kenny the tall, dark and handsome(nickname given by gabriel), it was kinda fun.

from ytd,
i made an observation.
most uncles and malays accepted my pamphlets. VERY KIND PEOPLE!
those who ignored? are the rest lor. hai~

SO, EVERYTHING WAS SO GOOD SO FAR.

dinner time!!!

i took my purse from my bag in the drawer,
punched my card at the exit,
and walked down to B1 to have dinner.
perhaps i was too tired,
i didnt feel hungry at all.
so i don feel like eating.
when the guys went to get their food,
while i went to get seats,
i realise,
MY PURSE WENT MISSING!
ATM card MISSING!
$15 MISSING!
KOPITIAM discount card MISSING!
STUDENT EZLINK MISSING!
lucky thing, i juz cleared my purse and took my IC (which i used alot for my job interviews for the past few days), and big notes for my friend's birthday party the day before.

like how is it possible rite?
i didnt visit the toilet.
i went straight to eat.

so i tracked back.
still, no trace.
gabriel and kenny were kind enough to finish their mee sua fast enough to help me out with the treasure hunt.
searched high and low,
until the manager and some perm staff were alerted.
HAI!

they kept asking me: 'where did u put it?'
but i really dont know!!!

in starhub alone,
there was already so many people.
so packed.
imagine if i were to drop it outside?
GONE was the word.

at 9pm,
kenny juz gave me his atm card,
and asked me to cancel my card.
so i did.

so after 6pm,
i was super depressed.
trying to figure how the shit did i lose it.
for 20yrs, from what i rmb,
the things i lost shld only be..
ruler? pencil? pen?
not such an important thing like PURSE!

when i got home, of cos my mum knew sth was wrong.
cos whenever i am home, the house will be very noisy.
but ytd wasnt.
surprisingly, she didnt scold me.
and my dad, juz asked me to be more careful, and even offered to help me get an replacement of the atm card!! *touched*

as a big girl,
i went to posb myself this morning after tuition.
even my kid realise i wasnt right.

the queue was super long.
and i overheard there were another 2 guys who lose their atm cards..
GUYS. not girls.
means? guys shld be more careless than girls.
so HOW COULD ADELINE LOSE HER PURSE?

the sad adeline was home,
trying to find friends to play games.

upon entering friendster,
'New Message received'.

SOMEONE FOUND MY PURSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i immediately called him.
yes its a him.
hes a malay.
haha.
but it was his gf who picked my purse and gave it to her bf, cos she already flew to shanghai, and he juz got back from japan ytd.
WOW! a flying couple~

rushed down to get some gift for them and then headed down to pasir ris mrt to meet him.
he described himself as 'tall and skinny'
so i kept a lookout for malay, tall and skinny.
we were supposed to meet at 4.30pm.
its already 4.35pm.
being an impatient adeline,
i sms-ed him.
and he replied 'sorry. i forgot to bring your purse, so i got to u-turn. give me 5mins'
waiting.. waiting..

suddenly,
a chinese came smiling towards me: 'adeline?'
me: i thought u are a malay?
he: chinese-malay actually
OMG! i was so smitten by the way he speaks.
his looks.
and of cos, his honesty.

moral of the post?
1. there is still kind soul out there, despite the ugly side of singaporeans. ahahahha.
2. taking things that do not belong to you will only make others really sad.
3. be kind. be sweet. and good deed will come to you =)
