well, chinese new year was fun. most of it was spent helping out at the (plant) nursery selling pots and plants...the people there are nice. it's actually quite an eye-opener, working in the service industry. you learn how to deal with people and vultures (i.e. those who come at the last minute looking for bargains because "you're gonna have to clear the stock at midnight when chinese new year starts"), and maan, do i have stories about vultures. the twins were quite fun...and it's interesting when you first see them - they really do look alike. hard to believe they're already working...them looking like army boys and all. then again, a lot of the guys i know are in army, so maybe its just me. that aside, the reactions of people to see females pottering around carrying pots is quite amusing. for example, i get asked if i'm someone's sister. i say no. then, "are you his wife?"

yeeek. interesting thought, but no. i'm too young for this sorta thing.

actually, come to think about it, that was my chinese new year: selling pots and plants. the rest of it was the usual whirlwind of visiting, although the party on the first day was fun. what with 5 girls going out on an ice-buying trip because the poor guy just asked everyone along the path to the door to come buy ice. we probably made him nervous. i do know his driving was a bit more jerky than usual. and one of them is an rjc gp teacher, heheh.

bleah. and now's the time to buckle down to work. yeesssh.
