IBSM then to work. nothing much, except that it was raining so heavily i was shivering the whole day. especially at pianoforte, it was freezing cold, it's like i'm frozen in a fridge. i really like the place alot, and most of all, i really like jan and angeline alot. and i like giving sweets to the little children everyday. even though jan always insist to pay for the sweets i buy, but i think it's really ok as i'm the one who REALLY love to give them the sweets and see their sweet sweet smile, together with those sweet thank yous. (: it just warms me alot. the children there are getting used to the fact that when they come for piano lessons, this lady sittin at the front desk counter will give them sweets, and now when i forget to entertain them with sweets, they would ask for it. hahhas. they are really a cute bunch. to be honest, i look forward to each day when i go to work, especially saturdays cos i've got angeline to keep me accompanied. i like it. time flies, it's the end of my second month there, while i'm away to china and hk, angeline will take over me. it'd be two weeks away. thanks girl.
iibsm workshop was great. today was alot more gelling together with our groupmates. everyone settles well in their own groups, and during lunch we din sit separately like we did yesterday. we: me, jas, benson, nicholas, guan hong, george & denise lunch-ed together. it was rather hilarious in some ways. and thanks nicholas for the drink (: i'd really like to know more of these people as we will really be sticking together all the way till may, when the project dues.
after work when i was on my way home, i met third aunt. hahhas... we had a short talk and she boarded the bus while i walked home. it was good, cos we always have endless things to talk about. she told me what are the to dos and not to dos in china. hahhas. (:
oh, and mr wong shared some really funny experiences he had over the past two ibsm trips.. where he got cheated money. i know we should sympathize for the fact that he got cheated, but the way he said was really funny. and the most funny thing is, he said,
' IF YOU SEE ANYONE PICKPOCKETING THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU, PLEASE DO NOT CONFRONT THEM! IF NOT YOU WILL GET INTO TROUBLE!!'
of cos that sounds logical, until guan hong popped a really hilarious question that made our whole group laughed. guan hong: what if he pickpocket-ed your friend????' he continued, 'keep quiet and let the pickpocket take the wallet. when ur fren realise then say i saw him ook ur wallet, but i cannot confront him.'
***laughs out loud***
it's true in a way, but it's just funny. and mr wong also said if we see anyone drop their things on the floor, being helpful singaporeans, we would pick up and return, but they would demand more~ as in they will say that we took parts of what we picked up for them. oh man...
we need to get many suits of formal wear... it's 12 days of formal wear.. ok, rather.. 11 days of formal wear.. mr wong said hong kong people wear real nice and neat for business functions, we are expected to wear nicely for any company visits, and we are to wear our blazers, casual with no jeans allowed. on wed after our workshop, i'm going to shop with jasmine for our formal wear. we only have two suits altogether.. one which we bought for our ocom presentation in year one.
sunday we are going for our kayaking expedition.. rain rain go away, come again another day...
i checked the weather forecast of hk and shen zhen.. it's gonna be 18 degrees celsius and rainy most of the times... alright... at home, the air con of mine has to be 22 or 23 sometimes 25, only cos joycie ongcie is super duper vulnerable to coldness... i think i might need 2 jackets over there. (:
♥dedicated compassion and loves.
