a little time..

to sit down and write about my experiences so far? this is my third week on the job, it's getting interesting, thank God! i completely understand i have to just slog thru the lousy stuff before i get down to the fun bit, but it's kinda hard, as some of you will understand.


ok here's a brief rundown. i'm working as a marketing intern at a medical company we will call CMI for short. Old Man's been there for years, and since the beginning, W-S was just like this mysterious place that we all wondered about but never really thought we'd go to, much less work there!


what i've done so far:
Monday - had my first bowl of Cap'n Crunch. sweet corn-flavoured cereal, a perfect combo with milk. was evrything i'd ever imagined from reading all those Archie comics with the Cap'n Crunch adverts :D
That evening we went to this place. MommyK's food was soo good i couldn't stuff anything else down. it's been two weeks so i don't remember what she made and i couldn't take photos cos so weird right! but she got some mixed popcorn and MK had that 'custard' on the right.

i still don't really understand what custard is, i should go google it soon but it's like ice-cream and it looks damn good! the crazy kid got like 8 different toppings including unbaked cookie dough. weird but yummy!

the popcorn mix was great too, sweet caramel popcorn with salty savoury cheddar popcorn. when you get sick of one you start on the other. what a freaking good idea.


Tuesday - first day at work, and first lunch with MeowMeow. She's so pretty! i think it's her personality that enhances it, :) she's my walking dictionary for the office. She brought me to get lunch, we both had Big Daddy burgers, and oh man was it big! but damn good, the burger was juicy and of course, it being American-sized, i left four bites on the plate, and half the fries too. My feet were again killing me from the damn blisters, lucky there was a shoe store a few doors down so i popped in and got a pair of shoes :
Mootsie Tootsies, for $19. yeah i know..but my shoes were.omg.it's soo pretty and cool looking.but a killer on my feet! so i've been wearing this evry single day now. it's all good :)


Same evening - first Krispy Kreme! FYI, Krispy Kreme's home is W-S :D and i had it FRESH off the rack too, as pictured in the corner. no i didn't take those photos. i was too distracted :D so what does a warm almost-hot Krispy Kreme taste like? exactly what it is - steaming, pillowy soft dough covered in a so-sweet and almost crispy icing shell..mmmMMmm...

Wednesday - my first Twinkie! Lemony, sugary sweet soft pastry covering a cream center. i actually don't see much difference between this and the Apollo Swiss Roll we used to get at the canteen in primary school :D guess that's a Malaysian Twinkie?

In the evening DaddyK and MommyK taught me a new game and oh DAMN it's fun. ok it might seem kinda grandma-ish but if you get started i sweaar it's so addictive. or maybe it's just the aunty in me. :D welcome to Polish horseshoes!

each person has three of that thing you see hanging over the pipe rung, its 2 golf balls on either end of a rope. the aim of the game is to stand on one side of the pipe rungs and swing your golf balls to the other set of rungs, so that the rope wraps and hangs around the rungs. you can throw it straight or you can bounce it on the ground. watch a video here. (not mine!)

guess what. i won my first game! lucky eh?


Thursday - went to watch Hancock and Wall-E. going to watch Wall-E was fun for reasons i will not disclose ;) safe to say that MommyK is soooo coooooolll. In addition to the fact that she and MK love Def Leppard :D:D:D i loveedd Wall-E, it was so sweet! best scene - Wall-E and Eve dancing in space, she with her jet-propulsion and he with his...fire extinguisher. hmm. hehe. sob scene - when wall-e nearly died :S

and then....

my first 4th of July~!!! we had the traditional barbie as DaddyK likes to call it. he made this drink for me, pineapple + rum in a dug-out pineapple. so nice yea! i called it my welcome drink lol i have a retarded expression on my face but :D notice my red white and blue wardrobe?

after dinner MommyK brought me and MK to watch fireworks. we sat next to a field in chairs they had brought.
gosh. no feelings of wonder and awe anymore. is this a sign of growing up? if so, it sucks.

or maybe. i was just missing someone....
