Okay, fucking owned. So my ITP is to sell tickets at the bumboats over at clarke quay yeah? 6pm-11pm every weekday for the next 6 weeks. First let's talk about the bad: It's tiring, your feet hurt, and it sucks to get rejected when you ask people to take a tour and they say no.
The rest of the entry is gonna be why it rapes so hard. :)
So I turned up 545pm yeah and there's like 4 guys there. 1 overall IC guy who's 32 years old, name's David. Then the other 3 guys are just other guys that work there yeah. Well there was a girl and guy too but they worked on the other booths so I really didn't get to see them all night.
Anyway I'm like hi and one of the guys tells me how to promote the tour and how to tell people about it and shit, so I started and initially I was kinda fucked up and like wow this shit sucks......then I said to myself, "okay im gonna be stuck here 5 fucking hours a day for 6 weeks so im gonna make this...fun." I went to buy myself a 100plus and downed it. Soon as I did I rushed out with the flyers and kept asking these tourists to try the tour. Sure I got rejected a lot, but when I did I said, "Aight, have a good night!" and they ALWAYS smile and quite often they say, "You too." THAT ALONE MAKES IT WORTHWHILE.
But when they DO decide to sign up for the 30minute tour, it's even more fun cuz then I can actually engage in conversation with them. I had about 6-7 3-5minute conversations with groups of people or couples tonight, and that's cuz I started so late. Let's throw in a few examples:
This tour guide with 2 girls came and I was talking to her and she kept going, "see girls look! he has dimples! im so jealous!" and inside im all like "oh great, go away please." and then she goes on and on about it. (Okay, so that was the only irritating conversation.)
There was another one where these 2 women and 2 monks were waiting to buy the tickets. One of the woman was standing there looking at me and I smiled and outta nowhere she just said, "Where you from?" I was startled for a sec then gave her the usual reply blah blah and outta nowhere I blurted some chinese out and she's like "wah! ni ke yi jiang hua wen ah? wah fei cang li hai ah!" I'm like yeah whatever.
The REAL fun conversations were the ones with ABCs or english/americans/australians. Now THESE people have real senses of humor. Like this couple asked me if they could bring drinks/food on the boat and I was like yup. Then they went to buy a couple beers, they came back, and when they wanted to get on I was like, "I'm sorry guys but I can't let you take that on the boat cuz you didn't buy me one." with a VERY straight face. Hahahaha they found it hilarious and laughed about it so hard; sigh, making people laugh just makes one feel so good. They were waving to me even when the boat was moving off haha.
Another couple was gonna buy drinks and I teasingly asked them to and they were like, "I don't think you look old enough to drink!" and I'm like "WHAT?!?!?!" and they walked off laughing. We all knew we were joking though, so it was just fun.
Now on to WOMEN. :D This part deserves to go all in italics! =D
David, the 32yo IC, is married to a Singaporean woman and he has a 3yo son. He says he been working there 10 years and he's like, "You know ah, you'll love working here. Got women EVERYWHERE I tell you. Wah the japanese ah, a lot ah! I ah, I have gone out with the Japanese before lah, but I don't do hanky panky with them because I'm married." I'm like, "yeah well I have a gf" and he's like "SO WHAT! People married also go around play play, no problem la!" I just laughed it out...I don't think I'll consider what he said yeah? ha.ha.ha. ;p But really, I called my 'ic' a bastard, asshole, fucker, cheebye all, and they don't care haha. I can just wander around go buy drink go toilet and it's really slack. I just have to occasionally show as if I'm trying to get people to sign up for the tour. But really, it IS fun hahahaha.
Now apart from the fact that my station is *RIGHT BESIDE HOOTERS* and I can see the girls walking around in their tight skimpy white tops and tight orange shorts(if they can even be called shorts)....Clarke quay is just full of women! Now we're not just talking good singaporean women, we're talking TOURISTS!!! And apart from the tourists that come as couples, and are still kinda hot, there are those that come in GROUPS OF THE SAME SEX...FEMALE! =D I go up to them and I'm like, "Would you layyydies be interested in a relaxing boat tour?" with, of course, my infectious smile. hahaha. :D They said no. :(
But the BEST lady for me is the one that I hear every single night just before I fall asleep. *grins widely* ;)

#1 Belief:Siu chung sleeps too much; he's a pig.
Info:I LOVE TRAVELLING AND THRILL-SEEKING. Travelling and exploring the world is so wonderful because there's just so much to see and do. As for thrill-seeking, I believe that if you don't put your life on the edge, and don't seek novelties that most people dare not do, then your life has gone to waste. Risk it, you only have one life.
yeah i take shit easy, i don't really get phased. like me or not, it don't
really matter, because in this world there will ALWAYS be people that love you, and people that hate you. that's how life is. sad, yeah, pfft.
all my beliefs are in my posts, so read 'em and chillout. word up Gs.
I have many beliefs about women and my life, it's taken me a long time to come up with this, so enjoy it.
1) I don't ever let women use their looks/sexual powers to take advantage of me. There are no special privileges with me. It's who you are. Most guys succumb to women like helpless babies. Fuck that.
2) I am un-selfconscious and don't give a fuck what others think.
3) I put myself and my life first, but anyone else that comes after that is treated exceptionally good.
4) I deserve, have permission, and can hold an exceptional women. Most men don't think they can, it's sad.
5) I don't care what the outcome is, if women don't want me, then it doesn't matter to me.
6) I can deal with any test that women like throwing at me. IN FACT, a lot of the time it's usually cute and funny.
7) I make CAUSE in the world, not effect. People don't have an impact on me, I have an impact on them.
8) I'm confident and comfortable in my own body. Most guys are self-conscious about themselves and are not comfortable with their own selves. I know what I'm doing.
9) I'm a really good communicator with people, most women, ESPECIALLY of what I want.
10) I'm always in control, I never let outside events de-stabalize me. (Mainly emotional.)
11) I'm NEVER NEEDY, I keep my power for myself. I don't 'need' anything.
12) I think sex is fucking great, I am ready to have sexual conversations with anyone, anytime. As long as they're legal. ;p
13) I'm comfortable around women, in fact, sometimes I feel I'm a bit too comfortable that it worries them.
14) I can control myself and I can wait. I can build anticipation. Even if I want something really badly, I can wait.
15) I don't tolerate disrespect of myself/my time/my property. If girls wanna waste my time, that's it, it's over, I don't wanna hear it.
16) I'm a catch. A pretty hard catch, but that's to ensure I get quality.
17) I'm not impressed by outward symbols of money or status. I value people and judge them based on their character; I am fair.
18) I may be totally into a woman and crazy over her, but I don't tell her early on and I sure as shit don't let it slip indirectly. I take my time.
19) I never lose my composure, ever.
20) I am seldom predictable.
