Went to work part time with Ted at Maris Stella yesterday.
It sure brings back lotsa memories for me and I am glad at least one teacher still recognizes me haha..
Our job was simple, but tedious. We were asked to shift 50+ units of iMacs from the IT Lab on the first floor to the storeroom on the 6th floor. The iMacs weights around 10kg and we have to move 50+ of them up a height of 30+ metres. If you think that sounds easy, think again. But luckily the iMacs have handles so its much more easier to carry them around. The eMacs were the killers...
Anyways, we had five people moving the macs, three others from the Apple iStore and me and Ted. We formed a human chain with each person stationed at each staircase and then carried the macs up to the 6th floor slowly...
When we are done with that, we went to have lunch at the school canteen. The iStore guys told us some pretty interesting stuffs that are simply too obscene to be blogged here. If you want to know, come ask me haha. Or Ted.
After lunch, we proceeded to the staff room where we will be moving the eMacs out of it and shift them into various classrooms and the IT Lab on the first floor. The staff room is on the 6th floor as well. Each eMac weighs around 17 kilograms and there were 80+ units of them. The worst part is the eMacs have no handles and they are smooth and glossy throughout so it is quite a chore to carry them over a long distance. Plus my sweat makes the eMacs even more slippery so I really have to grip it damn hard to prevent it from dropping.
For some reason, only Ted and I are moving the eMacs from the staff room to the classrooms, the other three iStore guy "helped" to move the eMacs out of the staff room and left it at the staircase for us. Great help I would say.
Well we took quite some time to deliver the eMacs to the 40+ classrooms. After that we went back to the staff room only to discover that we have 40+ eMacs to move to the IT Lab on the FIRST FLOOR! CAn you believe it? Somebody should have installed a pulley system in the school! Grrrr...
Anyways, slowly and carefully and surely, we moved the eMacs to the IT Lab successfully.
At the end of everything, my muscles were sore and weak. I woke up this morning to find them aching like mad. All this menial labour for $50. haha. Oh well. Its good training for my muscle. I think they are getting bigger already.
Watched the Conqueror of Shambala and found that it was quite nice. FMA rocks. I always thought that Izumi would die heroically in a fight or something but she actually died from her old ailments and she only got like 10 second of coverage in the 2hr show I was like wth lah. Nonetheless its a nice anime.
Cleared my wardrobe today and only threw away two shirts that are too small for me. And I realised I need new undergarments. Went shopping for a birthday present for Sebas with Sher and bought a board short for him. We had to go through several stores before we could find a size 28 for him. As usual, Sher cant resist buying something for herself. We went to Marina Square and I was damn happy because I found a store that sells miniature models of ships and planes! Yipppeeeeee!!! And they had paints which i need for my aircraft carrier as well. Yooooohoooooo!!! I am going to visit there frequently from now on. I saw a pair of FMA figurines which were damn kawaii and so I took a picture of them haha..
Stupid Sher suan my like shit on the way back... say what my hair looks like bird nest and that I was damn ugly and my shoe damn ugly grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I WANNA GO EXTREME MAKEOVER!!!
Ouch.. my muscles aches.... cant keep my arms straight...
For some reason I cant post pictures. Stupid blogger. Will try to post them next time.
