for the future me

i scoff at GEMS! which means Go the Extra Mile for Service. as if! they wun even take another step with you if you don't decide to buy their stuff immediately after like some conclusive action, eg discussing with ur fren, trying out (clothes), looking around the whole shop. sure they would GEMS, but only if you purchase sthg. i really think this GEMS thing is icing without the cake. without basic courtesy, what use is going the extra mile for service? and i may be wrong, but it's more often the bosses that are hostile than the employees..i can understand cos it directly affects their income but isn't the logic all wrong?? if customers are giving u ur bread, shdn't u want them to keep coming back? but instead, it's the employees, who do not have to care how much sales is made tdy, who have no direct relationship with the shop, who are making an effort! argh, and i conclude that shops everywhere in sg, no matter street shopping aka bugis, variety shopping aka far east and branded shopping aka taka are all selling stuff at the same price ranges..despite disparities in quality. and beware of middle-aged bosses in far east and bugis. they are the WORST. i will not shop there for a long time.

i noticed...that singapore is turning into a miniature china. and it's changing so fast that we can't expect these ppl to adapt to our lifestyle, but instead we have to get used to having them around. i still do not think the stereotypes abt them are patronising..after these few yrs. cos i really haven't met a single one, despite the many i meet everyday, that can change my opinion abt them. surely they should have realised the proper volume of talking, the meaning of hygiene and the kind of basic courtesy here? i used to think that it would be a natural process of minority adapting..but looking at things now, who will be the minority in the future still leaves room to be seen. why can't more taiwan ppl move here instead! they are the same in every sense of appearance, but their lifestyle is so much more preferable. i really miss the people and service in taiwan!

anyway, i went xmas shopping ytd..and i adore them! let's hope the recipients like them as much too. hope i got enough. beams! was so amused by sthg i read in someone's blog..and i've picked it up! i less than three my xmas presents! though i still prefer heart. grins.

sthg mind-boggling occurred ytd..that yanfang can testify to. but i concluded it was an utterly insignificant event. until now, at least. i can finally tell myself i'm not a confused person..and i know exactly what it feels like to have no chemistry. (which, is a subject i can't fathom. shrugs.) at least this kinda proves that i'm quite rational. and i know exactly how i feel. great! i shall doubt my emotions no longer. beams!

bombie will be back 29 hours later! yay..though i alr know what my xmas present is..wahaha..it's green, cold, smooth and worn around the wrist. though it should have been brown. but nvm! cos bombie bought it! grins! -chokes bombie in a strangling hug- my present for him ain't all that wise either. muahaha. but..it's fun!

some blogs are funny instruments, the more you check for updates, the more void of them it is. click on them on a random day, and suddenly the owner has said so much. =S

love catching up with old friends. (:
