for those who didn't really know what i was up to recently,i'm here to inform u that i had been working for 3 days at MITC last week.there was an exhibition named Karnival Mesra Melaka being held there.we had to work from 9.30am to 10.30pm which is exactly 13 hours,and for people like me who had been lazing around at home doing nothing for so long,it was simply tough.but somehow i managed to pull myself through.hehe..you see,i'm a tough girl! =P
there is a reason why i didn't write anything on my working experience sooner.i was simply too exhausted that i needed time to recharged before my mind could actually work properly.hehe..sounds exaggerated?but it's true,the work is really tiring and it took me 1 whole day of rest before i recovered and became energetic all over again..

on the first day of the carnival,we were really blur and confused about what we had to do and whose order should we obey to.everything was in such a mess and we were really frustrated with the organisers because everything seemed so inorganised and we expected them to do better than that since they were called 'the organiser'.however no matter how bad their system was we still had to bear with it since we were only part-timers and what choice did we have?we were there just to earn the money,so i guess we could only choose to tolerate with them.so,i spent my first day there distributing leaflets,rounding the area making sure that the exhibitors did the thing as told by the organiser and curi tulang once in a while.that was what i did on the first day,doesn't sound like a tough job does it?but my legs hurt like hell and i felt like my whole body was gonna break into pieces by the time i got home.

on the second day,we could clearly see that there was a lot of improvements and i was quite impressed because it showed that the organisers were actually doing their job and were trying hard to make this exhibition a success.however as for myself,it was the worst day ever.i'd spent 13 hours rounding the same area again and again and again with the ORGANISER tag around my neck!!do you know what was the purpose of them asking me to do that?so that those exhibitors knew that we,the so called 'organisers' were keeping an eye on them so that they wouldn't do anything they were not supposed to do.some sort like security-lah.sigh..i just couldn't stand doing boring job like that so i asked for a transfer to the info+redemption counter on the 3rd day.

i guess i had made the right decision because it was fun working at the info+redemption counter.we had free gifts like biscuits,drinks,instant coffees and magazines to give out to those customers who took part in our little bingo game.although we had to teach them how to play the game and had to repeat the same thing for millions of times to different customers but it was no big deal.time passed faster this way.even though we did met some very greedy and fussy customers but no big problems occured.and when there was not many customers around,we kept the free gifts for ourselves.keke...seems like we are the greedy ones..=P

it was funny how much i hated working there on the 1st day and still felt sad when the last day of work had come.i guess part of the reason was that i got close to some friends while working there and they actually made me feel like my work was not so frustrating and tiring while they were by my side.i enjoyed their company so much!now that the 3 days was up,we might not be able to see each other again.sigh..reality is always cruel.. but one thing for sure,i will always remember them and i will never forget about this experience of working with them...=)

"You see," he says to the girl, "You closed your eyes. That was the difference. Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel.And if you are ever going to have people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them,too--even when you're in the dark. Even when you're falling."
Tuesdays with Morrie - Mitch Albom

sometimes, it is hard to trust people. especially when we grow older and older. trusting people is no longer a simple thing to us. it is no longer easy like when we were all small and innocent and ignorant. i am thinking why is it so and i've got myself a conclusion, it is because we all are afraid to get hurt. it is because if we trust a person too much and she/he turn out to be somebody who isn't that trustworthy,that's gonna break our hearts. or when we trust in a person too much but it turn out to be she/he doesn't trust us as much, that is gonna hurt too.

if i were to choose, i still choose to believe in my friends, to trust in them. even though i might get hurt, even though i might not get the kind of responce i wish to get from them. even though they might not treasure me as much as i treasure them. but it's okay. i just don't wanna give up hoping that our friendship will last as long as it can last, and if it is possible, forever.
