Paid to be a VASE...

been working at Raffles Place for the past 3 days from 11am to 2pm. Basically, i'm juz there to be a VASE! there's not much to do, or rather, we're not supposed to do too much, except stand there and smile. It's for the IPO of Maple Tree Logistics Trust. I was there to distribute the prospectus, and really, we only stand there and "distribute".

We're not allow to do any form of selling, and tat includes [1] cannot hand out the prospectus, so we cannot physically take the book and pass to the people. They have to take from the table themselves. [2] We cannot answer any questions abt the trust, only allow to tell them, refer to the prospectus for more information. Basically, my job scope is to stand there and tell people tat "the offer closes on Friday 8am". We juz keeep repeating tat to whoever takes the book... EASY job~ Only requirement is tat we need to put on makeup and look well-groomed. And i was paid very very well, for this simple job~

On yesterday and Tues, i actually have lectures starting at 2pm, so i was late for both days~ but at least i turned up. ;P

Yesterday evening, I went to Funz' place for a house party. Her housemate and cousin whipped up lotsa delicious food and invited quite a lot of friends over~ but i dunno anyone of them except for Funz, her sister - Weisum and her sister's fren. Was glad to see Funz home a little earlier than her usual. Sorta worried for her, coz her working style is scary~ Workaholic! no point nagging at her, she gotta control her own time and slowly get back to normal. Spending 12 - 14hrs everyday at the office is really not healthy. And i heard sometimes, it's even more than tat~ sigh!

Intended to go to Club Momo after the house party actually, but i was lazy. And i promised someone tat i will not go since he's not ard... juz an impromptu cheeky promise, but i held my end of the deal. But still, i went out till late nite, coz i met Chiron and Anthony for coffee.

went to the Jurong East library today after work. I like being in the library. Gives me a sense of peace? i like the quietness... hahaha~ After reaching home from the library, Dad asked me to drive him to Thomson to collect his lorry. Now tat my brother is not helping him at work anymore, he gotta drive the lorry on his own. So i drove him there and gets to drive to school later. Good~ i can start thinking where to go after lecture... muahahaha~
