A scene at the beach.

Remember how I told you guys about my painting hobby during the holidays? Well here's one of them...

As you can see it's not the most realistic painting but whateverrrrrr. And yes, I know there's retarded lines everywhere especially on the wave.



A night view of a lonely island

This one's more in proportion as you can see...
haha

I have another one that I haven't finished yet, and it's taking me forever. But stay tuned for the next master piece :)

Today is the first day of the chinese new years...as well as valentines day.
Yesterday, being chinese new years eve, asian families like mine would gather together and have dinner...which is what we did. At Buffet Garden. I have to say it was a bit dull compare to other times but the food was still yum yum yum. And I get to see all my awesome cousins and families..and you know that warm fuzzy feeling you get at family get-togethers? Well I didn't feel that...probably because my brother's there..but anyways.
After dinner...some of us went back to aunty's house and do what we do every year. And that is...the adults will be watching some lame as chinese new years celebratory show that goes till about 2 o'clock in the morning. The kids will be up stairs watching some movie.
And this year I watched the coolest movie ever: Resident Evil II !!! AWESOME OR WHAT!
I wasn't gonna watch it cos they got annoying chinese subtitles but then I heard the chick said, "Everyone died...but they didn't stay dead." WHOA :O A freaking awesome zombie movie! I'm up for it! Favourite characters: Alice cos of what she did in the church (totally super freaking awesome) and Valentine cos of what she did in the police station (also totally super freaking awesome). Must watch the first and third one as well. :)

After the movie I watched a bit of the XXI Olympic Winter Games- Vancouver 2010 opening ceremony...WAS SO BORING! The cool bit was probably when they were showing the images on the sheet's thingy...but they had these hairy emo scottish (dunno why they're scottish when it's in Canada..)men with fake as tattoos doing tap dancing and playing the violin...Mmm...weird.
After an agonising hour of watching crap tv...finally went home around 1am. So let's just say I was still tired when I went to work later in the morning.

At work: work was average..apart from one incident. This woman bought something but was 20 cent short but then she already left to get something else and so it was just her kid waiting. So I told the kid that they're 20 cent short so he went to get his mum. But the mum never showed up and instead the dad did. So the dad told me he'll just go get the mum cos she had the money but after 10 minutes he came back and saw his kid still waiting so he went off at me! Saying crap like, "It's just 20 cent give the boy his food already!" So I had to explain as nicely as I can manage to the moronic man that I really can't process the transaction without the 20 cent cos the system is programed that way. I know it's only 20 cent and I would've gave the little boy his food but if I keep letting people off I'll get fired one day so then I had to explain that the 20 cent is needed. Of course the man was even more mad and was getting louder, "For god sakes, you already have most of the money so just give him the food." So I gave him the money back and said "We cannot give you the food without the 20 cent." And he started saying stuff like how our store is so crap and they'll never buy from us again. And I was just standing there thinking , "Omg this guy's freaking embarrassing me. Fuck off already!" And there were other customers standing around once again...was truely another FML moment. And even more ridiculously, the mum came up and said she wanna file a complaint form! WTF!? where was she 10 minutes ago?! Could've just pay the 20 cent and everyone will be happy. Jeez!
So for the rest of the shift I felt pretty crappy so after work I got a Boost and a kebab :)

That shall be all...remember to watch the Olympic Winter Games everyone! :)

oh and I watched Cougar town on thursday...mad as show :D

Whole chicken strikes again.

Mmm...where to start? Well, some wise person told me it'll be easier to start from the beginning, but there is no beginning so I guess I'll just write them as they come into mind.

So, had work today. Hate how we're always the last ones to close on sunday afternoons. Cos that way all the customer always come to our place when they see the other places closed and we then end up rushing everything (eg. getting the last orders out + cleaning process). So today just before closing we had heaps of customers and since it was just me up front (lucky me...*note the sarcasism*), I was rushigng around getting people's orders and handing out orders. And customers kept coming back and complaining about how there isn't enough salt on their chips or not enough chips with their chicken. Well FYI all you annoying people! If you wanted extra salt you could've said when you were ordering! DAMMIT!
Well, it could've been partly our fault with the chips with chicken part cos our kitchen hand (let's call him Teddy cos I shouldn't mention his real name), think it's cos it's been a long day and he just wanna go home or something, wasn't putting enough chips in the boxes so we kept having people coming back. Anyways, and while I was handling one of the orders, which included a whole chicken, because we put whole chickens in a paper/aluminium foil bag, I was holding it by the top bit and then the chicken fell through the bottom! REPEAT! THE CHICKEN FELL THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE FREAKING BAG! So it was really busy, all the customers were waiting, only one kitchen-hand so took a while to get the foods made, and I was just waiting there with a chicken on the freaking bench and the broken bag in my hand! First of all it was way too random, secondly all the customers were staring and pretty sure some rude ones were laughing, and I was panicing that the foods were taking so long. First thought? FML! So I yelled at Teddy to come get the chicken off the bench with some equipment cos then customers will then complain about how unhygienic we are. After the chicken incident...things got better and we satisfied all the customers and then we're closed! And after we closed I had to re-stock, sweep & scrub & mop the floor, wipe over all the benches + tills, take the sign down and re-stock the fridge. So that's all in a day's work.

Another thing...my internet and iTune's are being little bitches and isn't functioning properly and that's pissing me off >:(

School, school, school....school's fine. So far alright. I joined the softball team...gotta be the worst mistake this year. Haven't gotten into the tough part (assessment times) yet, I'm bracing myself for it.

Went to my dear friend Erika's party on saturday night. Was fun. I had fun jumping into the pool with my clothes on. It was a dare and I, Jade, never backs down from a dare.

One last thing...I should cut down on the amount of hairspray I'm using.

I saw a sign!

Have you seen something or did something or have something happened to you and you just took it as a sign? I did! :)
Well today, After I woke up from a very messed-up and disturbing dream, I decided to cook some eggs for breakfast. So while I was heating up the frying pan I was standing there and just staring at it. Until I realised...after about 5 minutes, that the pan should be really hot by now! So after a quick second thinking about what a noob I was, I grabbed an egg and cracked it on the bench and put it in the pan. But it never made it in the pan. Apparently I cracked the egg too hard, I practically smashed the whole thing on the bench and only a bit of egg white landed in the pan and was cooking very fast and already making loud sizzling noises. So in my head I was thinking, "OH CRAP!", while I tried to mop up the egg with paper towels but the paper towels just won't soak up the egg! So...with the loud sizzling (it's like urging me to hurry up!), the paper towels not responding to my psychic messages for it to soak up the egg and the fear of the chances that the frying pan might just get over-heated and explodes and I'll get into trouble with my parents all while just cooking some eggs. In the end, after the madness of trying to clean the bench and at lease put some eggs in the pan, I decided that the sizzling had gotten to me so I obeyed it's commands and focused on cooking the eggs instead.

After the egg thing, I was unaware that another unfortunate event was going to happen. While walking to school in the lovely breeze and warm sunshine, some retarded moron (from my school *sigh*)nearly ran over me with his damn bike! Seriously, people like that shouldn't even allow to be in the same space as a bike! We started from opposite side of a pedestrian crossing and when the light went green, I made my way across and he practically rode straight at me! At first thought I was thinking, "WTF, he's gonna change direction or what?", and as he got closer,I stepped slightly to the left and he did too...but to his right so he's still in my way! When it's the contact point, he obviously didn't choose to turn his bike the other way and practically ran into my right arm! And he didn't even continue on, he just stopped in the middle of the road obviously dunno what to do when in a situation like that. And the whole time I was just thinking, "OMFG, OMFG, OMFG. What a bloody idiot!" and trying to fight the urge to whack his helmet in. Tsk tsk, people these days.

So after the bike thing...I remembered the egg thing...and with the two things in mind...I took it as a sign! And that is, today might be a terrible day! But then it actually turned out fine :) I enjoyed my classes, signed up for the futsal team (yay!) and actually remembered to bring lunch money so I didn't starve!

Success! :)
