The Misadventures Down Under 2: Reporting For Duty!

今天上班第一天……

根本就不像是一个女生会穿的东西……

 去到那边离上班时间还有 10 分钟……（冒冷汗），还好经理还没到。有个姐姐给了我制服叫我换了，把包包放在 store 里面，然后给了武器！

今天的武器……

这份工，128179672817261 个字的故事简短来说，不错。比上一分工轻松（虽然要站着 7 个小时以上……），一起做工的姐姐们和经理（到此为止）都很不错，什么东西有问必答，而且对我这个笨手笨脚的人很有耐心…… 经理样子有点像戴眼睛有胡渣又超瘦的 Choi Daniel！哇哈哈…… 工作范围挺广的。除了 ushering，拿 order，捧菜，收碗碟，人多的时候要帮忙顾楼上，顾客点饭的话要给汤，没点饮料的话要端水……等等。很多 code 要记得，可是还好，我是记 code 长大的，所以很快顺手。

第一个轮班，在楼下做了约 4 个小时的工，除了不小心掉了一把刀之外一切都还算风平浪静。过后休息一个小时，去楼上窝在一个角落看小说。休息过后继续工作一下子，姐姐叫我吃晚餐（不错有提供膳食 ^^），然后继续血拼。途中有个姐姐突然问另外一个姐姐什么什么韩文怎么说。这时候想考考自己结果问那位韩国人姐姐：“너 한국인 이에요？（你是韩国人？）” 她说是然后反问我（她看来有点怀疑，也许因为我第一次看到她很兴奋地用华语问了她一大堆东西她才说她不会讲华语哈哈哈 ==）。过后还遇到一对在之前那间酒楼做工认识的工友，有点惊喜。其实这个时候真的不想见任何人了。突然经理一脚把我踢了上楼：“你跟 xx 学怎么准备楼上。”（暗喜，不用见人了。）

清理和确保每桌餐具够不够，那个姐姐叫我剥虾壳。*successkid.jpg
整个人就在楼上自闭拔虾壳。其实虽然说我很讨厌拔虾壳（我不吃虾只有一个情况-虾壳还没拔……），可是因为虾壳拔了只剩尾巴，于是很乐意地拔完了两包。

下楼了一阵子，经理又一脚把我踢了上去：“你去学怎样弄紫菜。”（他不然是个善解人意的好男人，不然就根本不想看到我……*自我催眠中……）

要把一包包冻结的紫菜弄散，然后包装进小盒子。那边应该有至少 20 公斤的紫菜，我和韩国人姐姐一起在那边弄，谈话中得知她是 VIP-Big Bang 的饭。后来她比我早下班，我继续弄到 10 点下班。走之前经理还很打趣地问：“你以后敢不敢吃紫菜？” 我说不敢了……

回到家冲凉房里一只超大只的蜘蛛等着迎接我（我怀疑它想偷窥我们要不然怎么在冲凉房不在其他地方死变态……）。没想到我和室友觉得它样衰把它赶出去了。

明天……其实是今天还要做工。今天 $90 进口袋了，Fighting！

The Misadventures Down Under 2: Roach Invasion...

Yesterday night, or rather today morning I was being a good girl going revising my Korean language online lessons when suddenly I saw something black on my wrist. I flung my wrist and something dropped onto the table and crackled... Big, black, with long thin feelers and spiny legs...

!@#$%&...

My first reaction was: "FUCK YOU GET OUT!!!" *Blow blow blow swat swat swat...

It wouldn't budge.

So I sat on the bed watching it crawl all over my table. chair, printer... Really wanted to get a slipper and mash it but I'd dirty everything... And I'd be risking that it would get alarmed and fly...

If there is anything worse than a flying roach... No, there's nothing worse than a flying roach...

Imagining pokemon battle scene:

Wild cockroach appeared. Wild cockroach used fly. It's super effective... Human fainted.

So all I could do was sit there keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't disappear... Oh OK now you can add disappearing cockroach on the "Worst things that can happen" list... 

It got to a point I was going to pull all my hair out, run around in circles and scream. It was sitting still on my printer, so I went to the kitchen, got a glass, went back into the room. Thank coconuts it was still there on my printer. I crept up and tried to trap it with the glass. But unfortunately my aim was poor...

Luckily it didn't go far, and after some nudging and banging of chairs onto the printer, it went back up where I could catch it and I quickly cupped the glass over it, slipped a piece of paper underneath, took it to the toilet, let it crawl into the toilet bowl, flush, and laugh triumphantly. No actually it was more like...

Ahh... How nostalgic, I once disposed of another roach like this, 9 years ago... Besides the fact that the roach I sent swimming was a tiny little roach, not a big, black one...

Took me one whole hour to get rid of one fucking cockroach... And that night after the not so epic battle, I was not able to sleep, until 5 a.m....

The MIsadventures Down Under 2: I Got A Job, Again...

话说上次找工时，有间奇奇怪怪的酒楼，什么东西不问就马上请了。那天第一天去做工时才知道吃力不讨好。这间酒楼有早市午市，早市卖点心，下午晚上卖酒楼菜。因为是新手，他们不让我帮忙负责点心，推着堆满点心的小推车滚来滚去，就把我推到楼面混。那天工作范围就是泡茶倒茶，收碗碟，摆好桌面，做跑腿之类的……Manager 大人说我不够醒目（明明就是不知所措……），而且抹干匙叉时又弄破了一支汤匙……@.@ 这份工好在哪里就是为你提供膳食，而且很丰富！早上有饭菜，放工有点心吃。可是工资只有一个小时 $8…… 鸡蛋糕别人在便利店柜台后面滚来滚去都有一个小时 $15 拿……

就这样某天，我接到了一通电话，说是一间我滚了进去丢了简历然后滚出来的日本 cafe 打来的。经理说我被录取了，可是餐馆暂时还在装修中，而且他要回马来西亚过年，回来了再打给我通知。兴奋不已，马上辞掉前一份工，拿了工钱。真岂有此理……他竟然只给了我一个小时 $7，说我那天做得不够熟手 !@#$%……（天下6500种语言的脏话我顿时很神奇地都讲得出了。）

话说回来今天我去巴刹买菜时突然接到一通电话，看看号码完全不知道是谁来的，不知是不是私生饭跟踪我，把我买下来的菜和价钱一一记下来，然后跟我回家。（哦莫太恐怖了……早知道戴墨镜帽子和口罩出门。）还是冒着形象矜持被破坏的危险接了电话。

哦原来是亲爱敬爱可爱的经理打来，叫我得空过去找他谈谈。

于是回家放了东西再回到城里找他。走进 cafe 问柜台的服务生说经理大人在吗，同时脑里在想像着经理会是什么样子的……
最好就是……


可是那幅情景就是死都不肯出现……
*暗笑……

可就在这时候他出现了。有点……无言……

年轻小伙子，样子不错挺斯文，戴着一副眼镜……

他问的东西都很奇怪……好像完全没看过我简历一样，可是也要体谅他，看他因为cafe装修工作也便秘到屁股爆炸了。他也不知道怎么会知道我面对他也紧张到屁股爆炸，讲：“Don't be nervous, I'm very easy going.” 

问到我有没有在墨尔本做过工时，
我：哦…………（真的要和他说在那边做过工吗……）有……
他：在哪里？
我：xx （酒楼的名字）
他：那边哦，经理是xx？
我：哦。
他：做多久了？
我：（你这不会是特地刁难我吧……）*沉默……一天。
他：（偷笑）怎么不做了？
我：很久没捧餐了，突然做那么大型的酒楼有点不惯，很复杂。（其实都是 bullshit 我根本没有捧过餐，只不过随便写进简历滥竽充数……）
他：哦，那你在马来西亚在哪里做过工？
我：（又要睁眼说骗话了）xxx
他：哦！那里啊！我去过，是在……
我：Kepong
他：哦 Damansara 也有一间啊，是有自助餐的吧？
我：（你再讲下去我扯头发给你看啦……）哦，以前是有，现在不知道了。

还好他停了。可是又问我读什么，然后叫我不要回去马来西亚……
就这样折腾了约 20 分钟，我被放出来了。现在只需要等他打来叫我去做工。

天啊希望这分工可以好好做好好赚啦……我要我的 DSLR，还有去韩国旅行……

The Misadventures Down Under 2: Random

在人来车往的繁忙城市街道上跳舞，超有 feel 的！^^

The Misadventures Down Under 2: Day At The Beach

I went to Brighton Beach ^^

Weather that morning was quite cloudy, good for a walk outside.

Looking at the waves rolling onto the beach. Super got feel xD

Well that's nice, an old couple hand in hand...

Water was so clear you could see the rocks and seaweed underwater. (Kinda reminds me of the weird art teacher who asked us to draw rocks underwater in Form 3...)

Strange seaweed which looks like a mop... (or Temenggung Jugah's hair...)

Oh uhm sorry... Too free nothing to do...

There were black swans... :o

吃饱没事做是这样的啦……

Sunbathing...

Brighton Beach is famous for its beach houses...

Number 66 looks like a wave from a Japanese painting...

Dolphin!!!

Go Aussie!!! ZzzZzz...

Rainbow xD

My lucky number kekeke... ^^

And let's have a look at some bin tai people who did this, don't know who...

It's a kiddy car! xD

Promise to come back with some better shots. Sorry >.<

The Misadventures Down Under 2: Happy CNY From Down Under!

First day of CNY, I'm stuck in Melbourne, no cookies, no new year cake, no poker, no rummy, no friends, no family. Awesome as... ==

All I did was go to the city for a walk because there was a CNY procession in the city. 

I'm usually an antifan of the colour red, but this year I made an exception...

Yeah, only for that reason...

Weather today was good. When I got there the procession had already started.

Not to be critical, but the dragon really looks like it broke its spine or something...

Not exactly better with the second dragon... 

And then came two acrobats on stilts, dressed supposedly as a Chinese emperor and the queen? Looks more like... Like... Like... I don't know... Some servant from a Japanese manga? Or geisha? Or... Man I don't even watch Hong Kong dramas and I know the difference... *You don't say

 Further down the road there were canvas tents set up. Many people set up stalls here...

Apparently, putting a potato on a stick increases it's value by 1000%... ==

Aaaand... I have no idea what real estate has to do with Lunar New Year either... To find out, call 1800638888.

Look at the crowd...

And I came across this stall flinging some tidbits to the passer-bys... In case you didn't see the bag of tidbits, it's highlighted with a yellow circle...

Further down there was a stage with some dance performances. Sorry, the angle from where I was taking this photo looks... Really wrong...

Nah well now you see it's not wrong, because they were wearing shirts with... Split colours. So one side is male one side is female... I bet that just made you even more confused... Never mind...

And since "Melbourne is such a multi-cultural city" they decided to give us some Brazilian dance by sexy ladies ooohhhhh... :O

Eihhhh... Sexy lady...

Last but not least, there were lion dances around the city. A few clubs went around the city performing lion dances for the Chinese owned shops.

Uber cool angmo drummer.

She looks even cooler here... ♥.♥

This just looks like... Lion: "OOOOOHHHH It's soooo pweeetttyyyy I wanna buy one!" *:3

What's under there? BROMANCE *Nigahiga style

And, I got so bored, went home, got my laptop, headed to uni because Wi-Fi wasn't fixed yet.

My first CNY overseas... Awesome as... =__________________= kthxbai

Oh by the way, Happy Chinese New Year! :D
