I'm tired and I'm annoyed.

*Grrrr*

I added a random thoughts box. It's on the right, under the links. See? *points*

Seafood BBQ Buffet

I was pretty surprised when I went to check out the spread. Mussels, lotsa mussels... Yum! They had fish, prawns, crabs, squid and everything. I ate like a pig. If pigs were into prawns and squids, anyway =)

They even had this brocolli/mushroom/veg stirfry type dish, so I fished for the brocollis and mushrooms *Hehe* But mostly, I was inhaling the barbequed prawns. They were beyond delishhh! I visited the dessert table but didn't touch anything. They were saying how good the chocolate mousse and apple pie were. I had a teeny tiny taste of the mousse. They were right, but I had to pass.

After dinner, me and the girl I was rooming with took a walk. We left the rest earlier cuz we wanted to atleast let the food settle in our tummies ;) We didn't get very far, though. There was this bar/karaoke/hang-out place across from where we ate. We checked out the menu and thought we'd hang out there for a bit. The place was small, there was this family there and she didn't feel comfortable drinking infront of them. So, drinks were bought and brought back to the room. It was raining, so hanging out watching movies were felt pretty good.

I saw Blast From The Past. Damn, that was funny. Halfway through, my cousin knocked on our door and I ended up finishing the movie in his room. He had apples and cokes, so we hung out there instead *Hehe* After the movie, I went back to my room and crashed. Talk about deep sleep, the next thing I know it was already close to 8am.

Everyone got up kinda late, and had bfast around 8.30am or something. The dining area was full with the weekend crowd. We had to wait for tables. I had cereal, sausages, scrambled eggs, bread, hash browns (which sucked!) and juice. Yah, friggin' huge breakfast!

After breakfast, we waited for the lorry to come so we could load the stuff to be shipped back to KL. By the time that was done and everyone packed onto the bus, it was 1.30pm (I think). Stopped for lunch along the way, I can't remember the time 'cuz I was asleep all the way. They woke me up and asked if I wanted to continue sleeping instead. What?? Ofcourse I want food! *Haha*

Lunch was one lousy piece of fried chicken and 3 pieces of nuggets. Oil, I know. I bought some guava after that, the munch on during the ride. Most slept the rest of the way, we got to KL around 6pm. It was still raining, by the way.

We waited for our paychecks and then helped them unload the lorry. By the time I reached home I think it was already 8.30pm. Had a quick dinner, and crashed around 10pm. The phone rang around midnight, it was that guy. I was too zonked to talk, I picked it up and mumbled some stuff. I can't believe he still wanted me to talk! By that time I was kinda annoyed and told him I wanted to sleep and I'll call him in the morning. Was that mean?

Anyways, that was my weekend. Oh and I even got some freebies. This Saturday(3rd) will be another carnival, the same event. But it'll be here, so no buffet dinner and resort stays =P Tomorrow, though, I've got an assignment at this hotel at 11.30am. I should be done by 6pm, so that's cool.

Okay, quick run through of Monday - Wednesday. Monday: hung out at home and rested. Had dinner with Shakhira at Daves. Tuesday: Took mom grocery shopping cuz she's making a special dinner. Had a majorly delicious dinner with mutton and mashed potatoes and salad and soup and garlic bread. Yum! Wednesday: Kept Shakhira company at lunch, and then helped her run an errand. After that she wanted to eat again. So she did. Twice. Back to her place to hang and then back home.

Okay, that brings us to right now. It's late, I gotta straighten out my room and find clothes for tomorrow. I'm gonna run.

<< end novel >>

Okie dokie.. Let's continue my weekend tale :P

Okay, so the set up for Saturday's event went on until close to midnight. Right after we finished unloading the stuff and putting most in storage, we went on to set up the tents and the popcorn n candyfloss machines. Yep, we had food! We even had lots of other tit-bits.

We stopped work at 7.45pm I think and went back to our rooms to freshen up for dinner at 8pm. None of us changed clothes, cuz we were gonna continue with work after that. No point in getting more clothes stinking of sweat *Heheh* Dinner was good, it was a hawker style buffet with things from malay to chinese to indian style dishes. They had little stalls serving different type of food.

So then work continued after dinner up 'til midnight. That night, we made popcorn, candyfloss and water balloons. The last one was kinda fun. Lots of water play. After all that, all of us were ready to just sleep and not wake up. But we had to meet for breakfast at 7am *groan* We had another briefing before calling it a night. It was past 1am by the time I did all this : Back to the room, hot shower, changed and fell into bed. Getting up at 6.30am was not fun.

Saturday morning consisted of blowing up a million balloons for decoration and shit (thank God for machines!), and also final setting up of the games areas. I was incharge of one of the telematches, which part of it had the waterballoons involved. After it was over, we started throwing them at each other. Some even armed themselves with waterguns and were running around the place shooting ppl. By the end of the day, I was drenched. From rain and watergun fights.

So, work was fun and ofcourse exhausting. After the event, we had to pack up most of everything and put them in storage. That went pretty fast. Oh, there were extra food, so some of us helped gave them away. Damn, ppl are fast when you mention FREE FOOD *Haha* After all the work was done and over with, it was time to jump in the pool. A few of us went to try out some of the rides in the waterpark. It was pretty quick cuz we were tired and wanted to shower before dinner.

Okay, this has gotten long enough. Next issue : Seafood bbq buffet.

Ouch! My body hurts something fierce. Both arms are sore and my back feels like concrete.

We reached KL yesterday around 6pm, by the time we helped unload the stuff and got our paychecks it was after 7pm. But it was a good weekend, overall =)

We left Friday morning for Bukit Merah on a bus. There were 13 of us from here. We got there around 3pm and after checking in and putting our stuff in the room, we had to unload the lorries. The goodies, props, machines and everything had to go in the store room. Here is where something weird happened.

As I was passing the goody bags (heavy bastards) to be kept, I felt nauseaus. I thought I was gonna hurl. So I told the girl after me (we made a human chain to save time) I needed to sit down. I sat at the bench and hoped the feeling would pass. Everyone asked if I was ok, I said I felt like puking and needed to rest for a bit. I thought I just needed water and got up to get a bottle.

I was walking towards the restaurant at the other end of the waterpark entrance, I felt funny. The distance was maybe 50 - 70 meters. I was approaching the place when I suddenly felt cold all over, I couldn't hear anything around me anymore and my eyesight was a blur. I tried focusing on the seats infront of me but everything was all bright, as if there were flashes of light. I know I was walking funny, and if I didn't get to the tables soon I was gonna pass out. I managed to push myslef to the tables and crashed on one of the chairs. I just put my head on the table and didn't care who was watching.

I stayed concious and managed to gather enough energy to get a coke. The sugar boost helped me back on my feet and make my way back to the team. Someone said I still looked a little pale and told me to sit down for a while. That was so scary! I think it's because I barely had anything to eat the day before and I was picking at my food when we stopped for lunch on the way. I felt better later and managed to continue working for the rest of the day.

We had a buffet dinner that night and I made sure I had enough to eat *Hehe* I kinda blew my diet for the whole weekend cuz I didn't want to pass out during the event.

Okay, I'm gonna continue in another post. I need to take a shower.
