ARGHHH.
My body ached like mad when I woke up this afternoon. My back, arms, legs, muscles and joints are still aching. Even bending, sitting down and getting up seem like a strain. Not because I partied all night ok. Worked for 2 events yesterday - CAAS Family Day at Singapore Flyer and a August Ball at Orchid Country Club. The morning event was very shagged. Kuku! I chose the wrong booth again - basketball. That time tended the clown ring, I thought it was bad enough already but the basketball was worst. I spent almost the whole morning bending up and down and picking up balls. And we were in the stupig tentage, super hot and stuffy. The event ended at 1pm.
Then the packing up. This time round more tedious because we had to remove the backdrops and stuffs and carry the things down from the sky deck to the flyer theatre. It's not very far from the sky deck to the flyer theatre but considering the amount of things we had to carry up and down and making a few trips can faint. And the weather was freaking hot (ok. i should be glad that it's not raining instead). Everything was done by around 4pm but Jean and I had to reach OCC by 5pm. And we haven't change! Super sticky and stinko. Chop chop cabbed home to get changed then cabbed down again to OCC. Luckily cab fare is claimable from Jason. In the cab to OCC, we were actually chatting initially but somehow we just dozed off unknowingly until the cabbie uncle suddenly exclaimed that he went the wrong way. Ewww. I thought the journey gonna take for ever. But it seemed to me that he probably took 20 minutes or lesser? East to North. How come so fast?!
I like dinner events. No hot sun and more relax. Heehee. Yesterday's dinner event was great. As usual, I did the sticker tattoo and Jean did the digital print. Though I was very tired but still enjoyed much while working. All of the guests were so nice and patient. Unlike few of the previous events, some of them were super mega irritating. They don't queue up and machiam like one bunch of kiasu "aunties" in the market. All the "aunties" will surround and bug me for their turn or ask this ask that. Hello?! Can't the "aunties" wait a minute? I don't have 4 heads and 4 pair of hands ok. WAH LAO! It's only sticker tattoos not magical stickers. As if after sticking them on, they will turn 20 years younger. Some very inconsiderate. Die die must stick 2 or 3 then happy. Eh HELLO~! There's other people queueing for their turn also okay. Don't be selfish. And some very cheapo also. After helping them to stick on, they don't even bother to ask but very conveniently and secretly took some, thinking that I didn't notice eh. Eeeyer. It's sooo disgusting. So glad the ladies at the OCC don't have the "auntie" spirit else super irritated plus I was feeling so lethargic.
When Jean was done with the prints, it was already 10+pm, we then went to have our first proper meal of the day - porridge and noodles (simple but very yummy because we were super hungry). No time to eat the whole day, just only ate 2 slices of bread in the morning and some biscuits to last throughout. Jason was very nice too. He let us off at 11pm though the thingy ends at 1am and sponsored our cab fare home. On our way home, we tried to keep talking again to keep ourselves awake. But the cabbie uncle kept talking to us instead. Hahaha.
Though super mega tired when I got home, but I don't feel dreadful about the job. Maybe not yet. After all, I don't do this frequently.
Ok. Enough of ranting.
And it's a brand new week again.
*Wheee*
