Just feel like it

I have tonnes to update about. But I'm not sure I've the patience to sit on this bloody chair for over an hour because I gotta get ready for my reunion dinner TONIGHT!

Chinese New Year has yet to arrive, yadda yadda yadda.... WHATEVER! That's what I like about my family (who plans stuff ahead). We always have our reunion dinner a week in advance to avoid the crowd.

Let's talk about Thursday. Martin was kind enough to take me to the hairdresser's at Woodlands. Clara came soon after and THAT BITCH TOOK OVER AN HOUR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHICH COLOUR SUITED HER HAIR BEST!!!!!

She arrived while Sam (the hairdresser) was half-way through with my head of wild curls and even after my hair was done, and I returned from the ATM machine, she was still sitting on the chair going, "OMG! Kim, your hair is so blonde! Eh, what colour should I choose?! I dunno! OMG!"

People, don't be misled by Clara's comment. My hair isn't blonde, it's brown.

My fringe is.

Went back to work at Marina on Friday and it was the first time we experienced a full-house!! WOOT! Earned over 2K, but it's nothing compared to the 6K-9K that Bugis usually receive from customers. We're off to a pretty good start, I must say. And the crew are beginning to really bond with each other now.

Impressed Joe = Happy crew

SATURDAY! Joe sent me back to Bugis to help out because there wasn't enough staff around. Mag saw my hair and exclaimed a very loud, "WAH KAO!!!!"


Here are some of the other comments which I can recall:

-Uncle Lim, "Wah... ni de tou fa zhe me bian cheng zhe yang?" (wah... what happened to your hair?)

-Lemon, " Eh, ni qu ran tou fa ah?" (eh, you dye your hair ah?)

-Ben, "Aiyoh! Why dye until like that?"

-Nicky, "Woah sey!! Stylo man!"

-Gen, "OMG! What the fuck! I was asking myself who is that with the gold hair! So it's you! Come here let me see!"

-Mindy, "Eeyer... Very ah-lian leh."

-Anthony, "CHAO AH LIAN!!!!!"

-Kathy, "OI! Why you colour your hair until like that?!! Like ku-ku leh!"

-Kelly, "Aiyoh... why this colour huh?"

-Kok Sin, " WAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

-Ping, "Eh, your hair ah.... haiyoh"

-Theresa, "Oh my gawd!!!!! YOU DYED YOUR HAIR TIL' IT BECAME LIKE THAT?!"

-Aunty Mary, " You very stress at Marina is it? Stress until your hair become this colour."

Tsk tsk... only Nicky gave a positive remark. The rest of you all hor.... humph! Especially that Gen ah! Keep on saying things like, " Wah lao eh! You are more ah-lian than ah-lian, you know? Super ah-lian can? CHAO AH-LIAN!"

What ah-lian?! How did that term come about anyway?! My parents didn't really say anything. Hahahaha! My mum just started laughing (straight in my face) and my dad merely said some thing like, "Haiyoh... you look like a dog lah."

Last year say I look like lion... this year say look like dog. Next time I dye pink to look like a flamingo ok? -it's the year of the dog btw-

Let's see what my grandma has to say in a few hours' time.
