Work Based Study

I actually have a post about what i'm currently doing and updates and details about the title above, but it's never finished coz its just so much that i fall asleep typing in the end due to exhaustion.

So anyway,

These past two days, i have been carrying real heavy stuff which i shouldn't be. ( Yes yes i know, it's my own fault ) But i don't wanna like stand there being so helpless and watch ppl luge heavy boxes around right.. SO yea, there is a wedding coming up in our uni. Until know i still can't figure out why the couple wants to have it in the school. Is it really because of the price? For what i know, chinese usually like to show status and wealth thru weddings. How did the groom convince his parents and parents-in-law? I really am dumbed out on his reason. Anyway! Because of him, the upstairs managerial ppl have been having lotsa meetings. For us? Boxes of chinaware has been arriving. So we have to carry all of them into the prep kitchen to store. Honestly, i don't know why they didnt ask the delivery people to carry them for us. I mean, im sure they have the brawns more than us right. Oh wells.Plus it was RAINING , so we were all wet and so afraid we'd slip. I wasn't afraid of breaking them! They were so heavy, i was afraid they would fall on my leg and break it ! It took four people to carry one crate and there were 15 crates more or less. Well, it is chinaware.

The day before, we had a buffet function for the SPE ( Society of Petroleum Engineers ) and we worked from 9-12 to prep the restaurant. Usually we would eat at around 11, but we had no time so we just worked all the way til 3. I was so hungry by then, i could eat a cow ! In between i have been stuffing buns into my mouth just to keep my stomach from growling and to avoid gastric. So yup, we had to carry all the heavy silver buffet thingies. I thought they were light, but oh my ! They are not ! Not as heavy as the chinaware, but heavy enough to require two people to carry. There were 6, so we had to go back and forth 6 times. By the 3rd one, my arms already felt like jelly. I really need to work out from now on.

But all in all, i'm pretty much contented now =) Although sometimes people make fun or talk about how old i am and still doing a diploma, really? It use to hurt, to make me feel angry. However, right now, i am happy with myself. Who cares what they think? At least i'm doing something! It's better than nothing. Plus, i'm doing something i actually like. And i still look young =P They all think im 18-19 anyway... Well until they asked me. I still say i'm 21 =D I AM 21!

Ah, one day i will look back at this post and be happy with myself. When i have achieved my goal, i will look back and be happy that i didn't back down. It's never too late to start. Just as long as you are determined to do it =) AND yes i have to go sleep now, if not i'll have no strength to work tomorrow. Nights bloggy /:O
