O Holy Night
God's Angels guided me throughbrightening darkness; removing obstacles
to have seen me thus far
Secrets of the woods become secrets no more
For God has commanded me to share my experience
with those whom trust and don't
as the encounter would witness and stand
and show the greatness of our mighty Lord
God bless
God's child

Monday, December 24, 2007In total pretence and ignorance of the global time=PDate: 24th December 2007 Day:Christmas's Eve Alright, before I start, I would like to inform that this entry was written in total pretence of how much time has passed and total ignorance of what time is it now according to global clock. Reason, I dozed off yesterday at 2000h due to serious sleep-deprivation, and that was without writing this online diary of mine. Hence, I woke up at 3++++ in response to Nazurah's Christmas greeting short message, and the guilt crept up in me, to spur me to write the yet-too-late entry. Everything shall be in pretence that it was still the 24th. Today (24th December 2007) was the Christmas's Eve. It was a real quiet one, with not so many dings and dangs here and there. I remember when I was still a kid many years back, when my neighbour-next-door was a Half-Norway-ian, Christmas Party was the best thing I would be anticipating throughout the years. During the eve itself, many of their friends would gush in, and of course presents and food were never lacking. It's a shame that they've moved away. I still find them the best neighbour though. Today was the Christmas's Eve, and I was still working, without any additional fees such as double pay or something like this. The Eve's not considered as a public holiday according to the Global calender. I find this stupid though. I mean those people who're in the service department would have realised that Eve itself is the busier day among the two. Ohs well, who cares? Anyway, I'm working on both days, meaning either day with the double pay, I'm gonna take it. Today was the Christmas's Eve, and I was the Santa Claus to go to work. After the individual deliveries for some of my really close friends, today was my colleagues' turn. A special delivery of 8 presents to workplace. It was so thoughtful of me to do that TODAY, as some of my colleagues weren't on shift. If I had chosen to deliver it on the day itself (Christmas), then some might just not be able to receive it in time. How thoughtful of me=P Today was the Christmas's Eve, and I was the Santa Claus in white, dragging an orange-instead-of-red, Lovelyland plastic bag instead of the traditional woolen bag to deliver presents. I was early, and so, I dropped at shop 1. Lina was there and I gave her her present- a favorite cartoon character-Pooh's item. I heard it from my sister. There, I heard some bad news, which I thought should not be revealed to the public before it reveals itself at my workplace. Today was the Christmas's Eve, and that was the first time I'm pushing a trolley on the skytrain. Lina made me do an extra delivery of audit rolls(refer to previous entries to find out what this is), without an extra charge to shop 2. I was doing mid-shift , and that was my working place of the day. Good thing the one won't be coming. She's taken a month's leave to go back to her home town=). Mahani was there. I gave her a bee-item. I'm not too sure about what to get for my colleagues and that day at LovelyLand(where I met the gift-wrapping master and picked up a few skills), I saw this collection of woolen pencil holders involving 6 or 8 (I forgot) designs (Giraffe, sheep, panther, bee, mouse, chicken etc). Mahani's pregnant, so I thought a bee one would be just suitable enough for that. After all, that day at shop 1's shop floor, I saw a baby in the bee suite. He was so cute!!! Today was the Christmas's Eve, and in addition to the "Thank you sir/mdm and have a nice day", I included a "Merry Christmas" at the back, and I was met with many satisfying replies of "Merry Christmas to you too!" I've always wanted to do that- to greet the strangers during the festive seasons. It kinda bring the humans closer together, narrowing down the differences which seems very significant on other days, but not on festivals. Today was the Christmas's Eve and I encountered some unhappy experience at the shop floor. A staff whom had lost her airport pass at what she claimed to be our outlets once was reluctant to take out her staff pass to allow me to key in the number, and insisted on a discount. In the end, she gave me four digits which I suspected to be a made up one, but yet I keyed it in. After all, it's Christmas, a day of sharing happiness. Perhaps a 15% discount might make her day? Let's hope my boss's no treading this. Today was the Christmas's Eve, and I encountered the clumsiest cashier's service offered by none other than me, myself, I. Mahani had gone banking and I was left alone in shop, and guess what! There was a sudden gush-in of customers and worst of all, there was numerous who requested for wrapping. Aw... That was my first live-wrapping in front of a customer, and the experience was awkward, nervous, and many mixture. I would like to apologise to some who has their product hastily wrapped by me. I've got to admit one of them wasn't exactly nice. In fact, it was ugly. Sorry about that. And I think I owed an apology to just now that staff. Yes, she came back again, and there she went. Talk and talk and talk, while I was already busy enough, and yet she was still bugging me with questions like how much discount arh? Though I said 15%, she wanted it converted to dollars! How the h*** would I know? I'm not a Japanese brain which was what Mimi called the calculator. And I kinda of shuffled her off when she asked for a bigger bag after a bigger bag. I gave her in the end though. Nut as a service-provider, I got to admit that my attitude wasn't good at that point of time. Whatever reason I gave, it was definitely, undoubtedly, my bad. Apologies. Today was the Christmas's Eve, and it was my first day working with Zhen Hui, another part-timer. I found her ok, and I felt bad not getting her a present when every other colleagues are receiving one, except for "you-know-who". Hence, immediately after knocking off, I went to mini-toons to get her one. IT was a hastily picked one, but still, hope she likes it. I bought a big toddler-sized E-ooo for my sister too. She has hinted that she wanted one and I saw it there, so I bought it. She said she didn't like it because it was too big, and my fault because she couldn't find a place to put it. Of course, my spirit was dampen and I was sad to hear that. Let's hope she didn't mean it that way. After all, this was the first decent Christmas present I've gotten her after 16 years. Seriously, the reaction was two polarities from what I've expected. Of course, I didn't expect her to be touched to tears or give me a hug, but at least I would have expected her to be happy, and keep thanking me in some kinda excitement, and carry the E-ooo for a while longer than to just chuck it on the bed right after receiving it. Ohs well, let's hope she likes it. Today was the Christmas's Eve, and many of my close-ies(friends) were having a countdown at Orhard at 2130h. I wanted to join them at first, but after a full day down working, exhaustion overcame me, and I backed out. Besides, I'm working morning tomorrow on Christmas day, early morning-0700h. Plenty of rest would be required of me. Luckily I slept at 2000 last night, so waking at 0300+ h wasn't really that bad. Today was the Christmas's Eve and I think I scared someone by not replying the messages. I was pretty pissed at first for some last minute and delayed stuffs, but I said I was cooled down by the bath I had, and I meant it. It's just that I went to sleep. That's why no replies. Sorry to cause any worries during the day of celebration!!! Today was the Christmas's Eve, which if in zero-pretence and zero-ignorance of time was actually Christmas day itself. But again, it was a quiet Christmas. Here in Singapore, I guess the only Christmas's atmosphere can only be felt at Orchard, and even if it's there, I guess it's just the edge of a mountain as compared to the westerners. Today was the Christmas's Eve and something crossed mt mind just now. Is Christmas supposed to be a quiet one? I mean where does the song Silent Night came from? After all, it's the Lord's (I shall call him that for today) birthday, and I believe that he wouldn't want a luxurious and lavish celebration while there were many who were suffering in other parts of the world. But that's where the issue of Santa Claus which comes in here. Is he the pal of the Lord or is he an employee? After all they held very different nationalities and I believe the fiction and the fact come into a huge conflict in such doubts.Disclaimer: There was definitely no discrimination of religion here.
Today was the Christmas's Eve and the year is ending soon. A prosperous year gives me the idea of a good harvest for farms, and that was pretty heart-warming, but not too so if we are living in Urban Singapore and global warming is becoming a big concern. Hence, hereby I wish everyone the best-iest year ahead, to succeed and attain accomplishment in whatever we do.
Ho~ho~ho~! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
