Butterfly Effect...
ok, honestly, the sheares bazaar wasn't that hot. in fact i found it pretty bad. Everything is so plain and drab, there isn't much unique stuff that's on sale, there isn't that great food around. (good thing there's still the Milo van though).
Anyway, the only thing that actually made the place interesting was SHAM Radio. Cos we're taking dedications and shouting them out across the forum it actually livens up the place somewhat. and... we're the only committee to actually put in effort in making a banner and decorating our booth. (the decor ultimately collapsed but yeah, we were the only comm who had the effort showing.)
And... i just woke up from my first sleeep, albeit only 4 hours, in 36 hours. whoo hoo! here's what's been happening chronologically in the past 40 hours.
0800, Sunday - took my dad to the doc. Bman drived and i supported him. it's quite sad to see him like this...
1100, Sunday - brought dad back.
1130, Sunday - had the usual family lunch, at home this time cos dad isnt really that mobile.
1230, Sunday - sat down to do my assignment
1500, Sunday - Bman sent me down to Clementi
1600, Sunday - went shopping for the stuff i'ld need for the SHAM booth. Called Adrian to ask him what materials he'ld need for the booth. I got all the stuff i needed for the booth at quite a low price. (watch for repercussions) and i didn't get contact glue.
1730, Sunday - back in hall, sat down to do another assignment
2000, Sunday - started the construction of the booth
2001, Sunday - Adrian decided that if i can get all the stuff, i can handle the setup/whatever of the booth. He practically put me fully in charge of the booth. dammit... I hate the Butterfly Effect.
2300, Sunday - briefed the other Shammers on what's supposed to happen tmr and made advertisement recordings. some of the ads are actually good. and of course, dear old me wrote the scripts, with Kay Ping's help of course. :)
0000, Monday - completed my first assignment. I should be happy but i still have another assignement.
0300, Monday - completed my second assignment. i should be happy but i still have to construct the booth.
0400, Monday - continued construction of the booth with Caroline and the old man Adrian. Caroline managed to call me a slave driver in this time. I didnt know she was planning to get even later on. Butterfly effect Part 2.
0700, Monday - Construction completed! but we'ld still have to shift it to Forum. Actually looked pretty good before it fell over. should have bought the contact glue. Butterfly Effect at work again.
0800, Monday - went down to Forum to set up the booth. Learnt that Adrian can be a noisy pain in the ass with alot of bad ideas that dont work. Other than that, he's alright. :) It's the generation gap thing...
1100, Monday - completed construction of booth, hung around till it was my first shift at SHAM. Got cheated by Kylinn into buying a donation for a charity. She's so insistent its nerve-racking. Everywhere i turn i'd see her smiling at me and shoving a clipboard into my face. Maybe i dont mind cos she's quite cute. haha. :p
1200, Monday - FIRST SHIFT!!! did it with Jeannette. pretty fun shouting out dedications but sometimes pretty painful too. and yes, i actually got a response from the crowd. Maybe i went into the wrong line of work. My mouth moves better than my body does. haha.
1300, Monday - handed over to the hired deejay for an hour who thinks he's so hot. I actually think he tried to make a pass at me but for his own good i hope not. And... honestly, he wasn't that great a deejay too. Tris is better.
1400, Monday - Somehow i got posted to the waffle shop and sold waffles for an hour and a half with a guy who talked so much and heard so little. and the times that he didnt talk there was a dead silence. I could really feel the chemistry with him. Thanks Caroline for the sabotage. I'll never push you too hard again.
1600, Monday - SECOND SHIFT! with Ernnie this time. spewed out the usual nonsense and twisted Kaiwen's and Rodney's words enough so that it seemed like they shot themselves in the foot. I love my creative mind. :) I borrowed a pencil from QJ for people to write dedications on. This may seem insignificant, but there's always a butterfly effect.
1800, Monday - SHIFT OVER!!! and end of bazaar day 1 too, shacked as hell. I dragged my lifeless shell away from the place the moment i could pick my feet off the floor.
1830, Monday - I met Darrel for dinner at Fong Seng, he met a zombie.
1930, Monday - dinner ended and i headed back to my roo
1945, Monday - called home to check how dad is
2000, Monday - SLEEP, glorious sleep
0000, Tuesday - QJ had to give me a call to ask about his pencil. DAMN.
i've been busy as hell. and tired as hell. and irritated as hell cos i had to get a call to wake me up when all i want to do is sleep.
good thing my lecturer told us last week that he'ld cancel the lect today or i'ld be in there but my mind would wander to my nice comfy, bedbug-infested bed.
Adrian, let it be known that if i do not get points for SHAM, i will cut through your wrinkled old head, gouge your brain and keep your eyeballs as a souvenir to remind the rest of the old people in the world that this young man expects credit where credit is due. haha. I can imagine his stressed face now. :p
Yeah, that's the buttefly effect, how small and seemingly insignificant things can lead to a much much bigger repercussion.
Shit... here comes another day
