As usual, the adrenalin kept me awake and I didn’t sleep at all.

I was up all the way until 7 plus, when Brian, who had a sleepness night as well, came over to pick me up for breakfast.

I think we all always have post-event anxiety.

Problem is that this event is going on for 3 weeks! Die.

Everything supposedly went well as planned, only until the rather soft-spoken guy of the group had slight complaints from the client, possibly for being too quiet. Reviews from the other part-timers were that he was indeed trying(one of the part-timers was saying that to be fair, it was just to be seen at the right moment, at the right time) and hardworking and a few times we wanted to speak to him, he was attending to customers. Perhaps his meek exterior wasn’t to his advantage.

For the way he pulled up his socks and putting in conscious effort, we managed to get the client to give him a fighting chance.

As always, in the people business, changes are inevitable. Just like how our team player’s Dad had an heart attack just last Friday, and had informed us just that his Dad is admitted to ICU. Knowing how he had wanted to work harder for the dough especially the more he needs money now, I feel quite bad he has to pull out due to circumstances.

It reminded me of the days when my Dad was all hooked up, and it was the worst feeling in the world.

Get well soon.

Brilliant. Just brilliant. I fell asleep at 7 plus, close to 8 in the evening.

By the time I woke up, it was already 4am.

So.. my body clock is officially screwed, and now, I am sustained by the adrenalin again. Dammit.

I don’t like such hyperactivity!

It was darn funny today when I bumped into the Singtel roadshow manager, and she was someone I once did an event before, the ever lovely Felicia. I remember having the best times at an event with her(other than Cindy).

Then when I was talking to Wenmei who came down to the booth, I bumped into Ryan… who met Wenmei before, and then with Ryan was Bernard, whom I worked for before since he is from Logitech, and that he was coincidentally my neighbour(speaking of which, Ryan is like my ‘neighbour’ too since he stays just across the street!) in the estate.

Then I bumped into Roland.

!!!!!! The whole world is in NUS!

And everyone knows everyone!

Roy came down and then Bernard was talking to him and then referred to someone from Roy’s shop as XXX’s wife… XXX is Roy’s brother-in-law(the wife is Roy’s sister. Heh).

And then when introduced to the booth people by Roland.. oh the company is actually the brother-in-law’s company and silly Roy didn’t know.

And the whole is once again, so freaking damn small.  Too small they were saying.

Eventually we had lunch at Holland Village, where Brian left behind his folder, and I very smartly pass to Roy to hide it in his bag(my bag he sure suspects).

Brian didn’t realise until he reached back NUS, and he was so exasperated that he decided to ride back to Holland Village in the hot afternoon sun. Roy had wanted to make him ride back but.. but.. but.. hehehehe.. I was nice and called him back.

Sometimes I am just TOO nice to that bugger.

Lunch was kinda fun. I like people in the industry with no airs and are just so easy to get along.

It was frantic after lunch though and finally the day ended.

Brian nicely sent me home(from all the niceness, I do deserve a bit more, huh!) in the peak hour traffic and I just… got so sloshed from the day.

And it is no good that I am sneezing non-stop right now.

I shall try to get some more rest….

Tomorrow is yet another, long day.
