I went k box at orchard with lauren & margaret to sort of celebrate my birthday. Lauren as usual doesnt sing much or is whispering to the mike. She left first. Next, me & marg went to queensway shopping centre to check out on shoes. I saw 2 pairs of shoes that i like, each from nike & addidas. The addidas one is more expensive but unique. Next, we went to tiong bahru plaza. I saw the same pair of addidas shoes there but in different colour. I decided that i'll buy the addidas one at tbp asap. I juz asked my parents to pay half for the shoes but they are rather reluctant... Favouritism works in all parents. Parents always dote on their youngest child. I'm the youngest but i dun get everything that i want... Anyway i'll persuade them to sponsor half or more for the shoes.

Today i was met with poor customer service!!! I went to the Value Dollar shop at tiong bahru plaza. I saw this piggy bank which is a golden pig. I wanted to buy a pair for display purposes in the living room for chinese new yr. I ask the shop assistant if there's box for it. He said in mandarin "One carton 48 pieces has box!" He was loud and rude. I mean obviously i'm asking for a box for only one piece. At the cashier counter, the cashier looks like a butch. I dun discriminate homosexuals if they can work juz as well as anybody. She didnt make any eye contact, and was smsing while giving me my change. I know is a shop which all the things are cheap so you cant expect much. There should be an acceptable level of customer service. Being polite to customer makes yourself and customers happy.
