So here i am, lagging by a week or even more. But i still want to post about the wonderful memories i had.
IMF was great. Simply wonderful.
Meeting the girls in the morning. Changed into our cleaner-yet-we-so-miss-it uniform in the toilets. Hung our not-so-beautiful-but-very-willing-to-be-ask-for-it-again pass and crossed that out-of-bound linkbridge to those without passes. Pass by those interesting metal detectors which screw up quite often when it starts beeping for no apparent reason.
I dreaded 4B mezzanine. How interesting can our duties get when we practically have to face SINGAPOREANS for hours! But. But. But. It left me so much memories. So many interesting experiences and people i have met.
First day went by quite hecticly for us already. I was coiling up lots and lots and lots of wires for JQ. And mdm pink. That wonderful lady in an all pink blazer which fuzz about every little detail. Paintings not centralized and that little mark here and there. But things got more relaxed for us as the days went by...
We talked to Suntec Management Group (SMG) people, Transport people, Hospitality Management Group(HMG) people, Medical, OPS HUB people etc. Spice up our working experience. And those TP people(that's what we call them)-they should smile more and please don't be so dao can? =X Not to forget my wonderful Venue Assistants (VAs). Initially we had Diana and Chenise with us but Gareth had to pull that away and that left Guany, me and the Lenny(Leonard and Kenny), Haiping. And Junry plus Xunyong in the front. We lunch-ed together, gossiped, took lots of pictures and had so much fun.
And our lovable Floor Managers (FMs). Gareth and Yenling!!! Mr Sissy and Ms Cheerful. You can never guess her age. That's how the saying goes, "Never judge a book by its cover." I still remembered how i complained of getting such a not-friendly guy as our FM and the not wonderful lady before the thing starts. He gay-ed, acted sissy and she laughed along and visited Mdm. Pink with us so often.
We were posted to Pan Pac. No its rather Marina Square to act as V.As. The 4 of us. It was rather tiring. Guany and i so miss our walkies and the people around mezzanine. Shou can't wait to se her mr handsomes. That took 2 days out of the 10. =(
Gerry. Protocol cum driver. He has been far too sweet and wonderful. Great stories and company. Who in the right mind would be able to guess he's reaching 50? No way! He's way too cool! Been loving his presence. And the sweet aramis watch he gave me. =)
The gorgeous CLEO bachelor we met at Carl's junior. He's situated at 4B mezzanine and we never noticed him. Can u believe it! Nicholas Leong. He's hot. Took pictures and greedy us asked for autograph. "To the cutest girl in Suntec. Was nice meeting you." was the message he wrote for me. =)
Jiemei! The security. Big size and tall one at that. Told us interesting stars he protected and all. You can't stop laughing at his actions. No way. Never seen anyone who dare to act so gay. Great job!
I'm the sweet person! as in giving out sweets. Sick of NETS sweets? Too bad my job to to help give them all out.
The pink lady thought me a lot. The entire experience. Everyone who was part of this imf. It has been totally fantastic.
The second last night with my dearest tr02. How can i forget about them. I believed Caroline had a wonderful birthday and the rest of us enjoyed ourselves greatly. Especially the super beautiful fireworks. Its especially nice when you get to watch it with people you enjoy to be with. =) We were shouting "We are Singapore!" And special people we met etc. I love you guys totally.
Will update again. Running late. =X BBQ~
Damn IS enrolment screwed up. Thanks NP!

Met tiff at around 1 plus? then we st off for marina square. Had yoshinoya for lunch and then we went shopping! Tiff got one nice adidas wallet and it's so worth it. Saw jocelyn and xiuzhen so we set off for suntec together. It isn't nice to be early because we ended up standing around waiting. After what seems like zillion of years, we finally see people crawling in. Signed our names, took our access cards and badges then went for some walkabout.
Not fair! Tiff has an Iraq delegate near her patrol area. Karyn has a switzerland one and Shou has mexico and spain one BUT poor guany and i. We were supposed to patrol zone 4B and we got SINGAPORE. Fantastic i suppose. Oh man. it's going to be worse then boring. Everything was supposed to be from 2 till 6pm but they changed it to 4 till 8pm. Our steamboat was cancelled. =(
Tiff and i sneaked off after that. Fire drill's a waste of time. Ok, just giving ourselves excuses to go shopping. She had to get her black covered shoes somehow. We left then went back to suntec convention againg then off again.
But we did get our retribution by sneaking off. The stupid train actually stalled for around 20 minutes? We got out at somerset wanting to walk to orchard cause we heard the announcement saying train fault will delay for 20 minutes and after we walked out, the door closed and it left. So we refused to walk and waited for another train. It came but it ended up stalling at Somerset for like 15minutes? Everyone was damn pissed.
We had dinner at Scotts. i was craving for spicy food but the tom-yum seafood kway teow was not spicy at all! Irritating! Walked around far east. Wanted to get shoes but it was kind of rushed so tiff ended getting her covered shoes. We were craving for ice-cream but!
We finally realized the importance of finding a job soon. As in really soon. It's been ages since we last went out like that and i had a great time gossiping and talking with her. Eating shopping and fun! =D
Oh no! i'm going suntec tomorrow again! For marche with them. =) it's been so long. 2 days of suntec last week. (was it?) 3 days of suntec this week. 10 days of suntec the next 2 weeks. Great!

We waited super long or “just the PM” (well he’s also human) to arrive. The securities around him were so alert and they even manage to check out little things and took precautions. We were standing in one big group and he came over and shook our hands then asked about our roles and we told him. Luckily he didn’t ask much if not it spells trouble. Then it was reception time. The food all looks very presentable. Although it was am tired to be standing or so may hours a smiling non-stop. I mean seriously non-stop, but I managed to learn a lot from it.
I cooked pasta just now and it was in such high demand that I didn’t cook enough of it. I should have cooked more. So bored. Tomorrow there will be a fire drill then my class steamboat. few nights ago I had super freezing dinner with meiyi jocelyn and xiuzhen and tomorrow will be a ultra warm one. Looking forward. =)
