Tired Saturday

Reached home at nearly 2am after meeting with the girls. Had to wake up at 8am and returned to the same place -- Swissotel The Stamford for an office event. Tired..

To make things worse, everything was so not planned for the ushering part! Had to go reckee with Rosy and Ken and then decide where we needed to station people and who to use. Gosh wondered what would Rosy have done if Ken and I had reported as instructed at 1230pm instead of earlier at 9.30am.

Then had to brief the ushers and send them down to the respective stations; afterwhich I also had to station at my station -- Lift Lobby A near the concierge. Looked so stupid with the flash card. So many people can!! After that got to rush back to the Ballroom for the another part of my duty! Before that got to ensure that the 2 busiest stations were taken care of by another 2 ushers who did not have Ballroom duties. Mad can! Had to walk here and there and call here and there! Best..one usher went missing because she went in seach of her bag and some others literally stood glued on the floor..I mean I would have expected them to move around abit or at least turn their flash cards towards the people if they were walking towards you....hmm..how senseless can some adults be...

Before I knew it the event came to an end. Think I was too engrossed in my duties and ensuring that others do theirs that I really had no idea what went on on stage. Didn't even have the mood to watch the performances.....

My leg was aching so badly after the whole event....and Kat would definately be 100 times more tired lor....and we were still expected to continue putting on a big smile and all that.....speechless..and of course smile-less...

Decided to do something happier after the event! Went to Jean Yip and highlighted my hair red!! Was so tempted to highlight it blonde or ash grey..or having the highlights more prominent at the front sides...Anyway it cost $98! Gosh I must not spend anymore money for the next 1 week and another month after Phuket....
