the art of technology;

ALSO A REFLECTION OF MANKIND'S LAZINESS

that's right!! Sarah is just sitting less than 50m away from me but we're conversing with our face plastered to the screen (on msn) instead of talking face to face...

And just yesterday, I had facebook remind me of everyone's upcoming birthday, some other would have totally slipped through my mind if not thanks to facebook.

Instead of calling or meeting up with people to know how they're getting by, we just read update or look at photos of each other on various kind of social network.

As efficient as technology is; helping us build a bridge to tasks deemed impossible in the past, it has somehow made us lazier and had definitely not helped to draw individuals' mind together.



Pardon my rattle above, its just something that came across my mind. I have exactly SIX days before my return. Lots of things going on in my mind, things to do before I go and places to visit!!! I have got only four more days of work but I have got no mood for Nemo!! drat!




I have a couple of pictures from my trip to South Carolina, so enjoy!
























These are just a few of the many which we've took... I'll upload the rest on fb so check that out. I'll probably upload pics from my visit to SeaWorld!!!


BYEEE!!!

HEY Y'ALL!!!!!!!!!



I'm back from my four days retreat to Aiken, South Carolina whereby our friend Ryan and his family has nicely offered to host us. I can't tell you how awesome it was to get away from the hustle and bustle of Disney to somewhere that still holds a charm that you get to see at no where. Not just the place or the scenery, but the long history that eventually shaped the place, its people and their hosptality that has made it the most unforgettable weekend I've had in these six months.

SO NOW, its back to reality and I'm gonna have to head to work in just a bit. So do not feel like working, I think I will be giving away my shift on Saturday. That's going to be the last day I can give my shift away and then just another four more days of work and I will be heading back to good ol' Singapore. It felt a little too surreal that I'm actually going home and I may be glad to go but I'm sad to leave everything here behind. Plus, work at Disney is starting to be a pain because I'm sick of doing the same thing all the timee... I think I'm better off typing reports... HAHAHAAH

oh well, just TEN DAYS!!!!

AND the reality of having to start packing is dawning on me and I'm fucking scared cuz I may not have enough space or I may exceed the weight limit. oh my gawwdddd!!! Shouldn't have gotten so many pairs of heels!!!!!!!!!!!!!

going to get food now!!! will be back with more!!!!!

loves :D

BENNIGAN'S Grill and Tavern

Booo!!! It's the end of the week yet again which means I've endured and successfully clocked in 48 hours and 30 mins.
OVER-TIME = $$$
OVER-TIME = $$$$$

And to commerate the end of the week, room-mate Sarah Sam and I went out for dinner at Bennigan's. Supposed to bring her over to Perkins at Crossroad because they serve really really good food. But its kind of out of the way for today's schedule so we postponed it for breakfast on Tuesday. Food was good, maybe because I have been having too much junk this week so a good sit-down meal is all I need.





Sarah


French Onion Soup


Grilled Salmon and Shrimp with rice


ABC Hamburger

Deadly Chocolate Treat

We ordered the desert thinking it's a cake but it turned out to be ice-cream so I guess that was a nice surprise. Did some shopping at Walgreen before heading back home.Technology has made us lazier people because I was chatting with Sarah on MSN when she's less than 10feet away from me.

I hope I manage to give away my shift on the tues and fri so I'll have more time to do things I want.That's all for today, I'll get back on this as soon as my events calendar starts to fill up.

Good night guys, or Good Day wherever you're.

LOVES,

Pei Rong

A big hello to you who still makes an effort to check back here.

It felt so good not to be woken up by an alarm clock at 6 in the morning and having the luxury to sleep in till late. Sometimes too much early shifts isn't too good for the mind as well as my body that is feeling so stiff and sore now from all the long hours at work. I sweat not to do that to myself again. Three consecutive days of 13, 12 and 11 hours shift is driving me nuts that I gave away my shift today.

But silly me went to pick up a two hours crowd control shift at Hollywood Studios. Now I just feel like slapping myself. Hopefully the coordinator will allow me to switch end-time with Sarah's colleague so I will be clocking in more hours which makes more sense.

Summer is drawing to an end and now we're all set to usher autumn, having alot more cool breeze and not so much heat anymore. Disney was like a ghost town now since the summer rush is over and everyone is back to school.
But oh well, another week is drawing to an end and I don't really have much time left with Nemo since I have requested for an entire week of vacation during the week of 20th.

Got to go catch the 12.45 bus in just a few and I will check back with you guys soonnn. Hopefully I will have more interesting things going on in my life then.

BYEEEEE
