Dun Show Off Your Product Knowledge PART 2~!

quite an exciting day today.. off from work and out from morning to night.. haha.. oh yeah ppl, there will be some scolding in the middle of my blog cos of an incident that happened that made me quite *black face*.. but i'm ok now.. haha.. just cannot angry for more than 1 day..

oh yeah.. i watched Nada Sou Sou last night too~! my dad bought the vcd (should be malaysian version) before he left for Taiwan.. it had Chinese and Malay Subtitles lah so it probably defines it as a Malaysia version lah.. thank god i know Chinese.. anyway, that movie was quite interesting actually.. from the starting to end.. i didnt fall asleep which was quite miracalous since i usually fall alseep during slowshows.. haha.. the male lead is just too perfect.. bronze skin and dreamy eyes.. haha.. but the girl looked quite weird.. she was all jumpy in the beginning of the show cos she was just 16 years old and towards the end she suddenly looked so tall lah.. i was like er? haha.. okie.. quite a sad ending too.. haiz.. okie watch finish, dumped it in my drawer and went to sleep.. haha..

so yeah.. today woke up and went to meet Juliana at the hair dressing salon near my block cos she wanted to dye it and i wanted to cut and wash mine.. by the time the Aunty had cut finished mine, the other hair dresser had just started on dyeing hers lah.. and after the blow and wash blah blah blah, her base colour had just been applied.. diaoz.. haha.. so i decided to go home and dump the steamboat pot first that she returned to me.. then on the way back, dapao-ed some siew mai and prawn dumplings back to the hair salon so that i could eat them while waiting for her to finish.. sat inside the salon eating dim sum, listening to my IPOD and reading my One Litre of Tears until about 1pm lah.. haha.. finally done then we went to the coffeeshop to have lunch and then got one uncle put 3 packets of tissue on the table and told us to buy from him and he kept standing there for almost 5 mins telling us that he needed $$ to eat.. but then since we had already so just didnt care about him.. but he kept standing there and FORCING us to buy.. so we just heck care him and continue eat.. got hands, got legs, can speak dun want to find proper job come here and disturb other ppl.. haiz.. lucky he left in the end sia..

after that took bus to YCK cos meeting Edwin there to register for BTT.. big mistake to take bus 72 sia.. like world tour like that sia.. i completely that we could have taken bus 969 then alight at Katib then take one stop down to YCK.. haha.. wasted almost 15 mins and the rain was still there.. walked to the driving sch in the rain.. and we were like 3 blind mice just falling ppl lah.. haha.. the registration was quite fast though.. 5 mins and done liaoz.. haha.. $11.25 per person.. 20th April 2007, 11.45am, Room 4.. haha.. wish me good luck ppl~!

then we took a shuttle bus back to the MRT station cos it was raining quite badly.. went to Cathay Cineleisure cos I wanted to watch Because I Said So and Juliana had the Cathay Comp Pass.. haha.. and Edwin had to go Ngee Ann City to handle some stuff.. but then it was Selling Fast so we decided not to watch.. walked around trying to find Willy's present but in the end we came up with something better so decided not to look anymore.. haha.. then went to Heeren cos i wanted to go HMV.. ok this is the part i'm gonna start scolding liaoz.. haha.. no vulgarities i promise.. haha.. here it goes.. Once a upon a time.. In a land far far away, there lived a Prince and Princess and so they lived happily ever after.. muahaha.. ok decided to be abit crazy for abit.. haha.. ok here's the real story..

Last night, my dad called back from Taiwan and said he was in Xi Men Ding and asked whether i wanted anything.. so i told him that if he saw One Litre of Tears or Taiyou No Uta can help me buy.. then i also mentioned that if he saw Yui's second album, Can't Buy My Love also can buy.. the reason why i asked him to buy was becos rmb in my previous blog entry i mentioned that the HMV sales girl told me that the album will only arrive in Singapore 1- 2 months later? then since i couldnt wait, decided to just buy from Taiwan then.. a while later my dad called back and said that he found the album.. and i was like so glad lah.. dun have to wait for 2 months liaoz.. haha.. NTD$378 so equivilant to almost S$18.90.. quite worth it so i asked him to buy 2 copies cos Jun Wei also wanted one copy.. there are two versions of this album, a CD Version and a CD + DVD Version.. my dad said that the CD shop he was in, the CD+DVD Version sold out liaoz.. quite disappointed cos i really wanted the CD + DVD Version.. nvm lor just buy the CD Version.. this was just yesterday and today went to HMV that time, walked up to the Japanese Section and guess what i saw? Yui's 2nd Album, Can't Buy My Love, CD + DVD Version S$21.95.. Argh~! i just stood there so mad lah.. this is the 2nd time i've experience bad product knowledge from HMV lah.. first time was when the HMV salesgirl told me a few days that Yui's second album havent even been released in Japan when its already topping the ORICON Chart there liao lah.. and then she again told me that her second album will not arrive until 1 -2 months later.. the reason why i'm so pissed and angry is that.. Number 1: That HMV Salesgirl didnt even have proper product knowledge at all lah.. first was about the CD not even been released in Japan and second was about the release in Singapore being 1 or 2 months more.. Number 2: When she told me all this FAKE product info, she said it in such a haughty tone lah.. not even giving me the proper eye contact and kept doing other stuff at the counter like clearing it.. like whatever she said was the truth and my info about the album already being released in Japan and anything relevant was all hearsay.. crap lah.. Number 3: If she had not told me the fake info about the album only being released 1 or 2 months later, I didnt had to ask my dad to buy it from Taiwan lah.. and i could easily have gotten the CD + DVD version on the spot itself..

all in all, i would just like to say that the HMV salesgirl really put me off going to HMV since all she could give me was fake info.. how is she gonna expect me to place my trust in HMV ever again? and her attitude really sucked.. what's with all the haughty-ness huh? if u really think that answering my queries are such a waste of your time then dun work at HMV lah.. get a job where u dun have to face customers at all lah.. on top of it all, just work on your product knowledge k? it wouldnt hurt to admit that u dunno the answer to any of my queries k? just dun give fake information.. haiz.. disappointed again.. Juliana even encouraged me to write in to HMV.. mayb i really will..

so left Heeren quite disappointed then went to Taka to shop around Kino for a while but didnt find anything that we wanted.. just walking around then waited for Edwin to finish his sutff then we went to Bugis to have steamboat at the Chong Qin Steamboat.. they increased the price to $12.80.. what a bummer.. haha.. so plus one drink.. one person $14 lor.. and the condition of the food had improved better.. it didnt look as unfresh as last time.. haha.. and i was the only one that was attacking the Tom Yam soup lah.. sad case sia.. haha.. but it was fun eating and talking at the same time.. then after that we went to a dessert shop further down.. and as we sat down looking at the cars parallel park, we just happen to notice one particular white car that looked like he was having the most difficult time of his life parking his car lah.. a maroon car beside us left and a lorry ok started parallel parking beside us and when the lorry had finished parking, that white car was still adjusting itselft and even the passengers had to come down and help the driver park lah.. omg~! really cannot make it sia.. and he just continued to park until we finished our dessert lah.. haha.. imagine if he were to exit later.. good luck ah.. haha..

so yeah, the day practically went by like that.. came home and saw on my desk, 2 of Yui's Album and One Litre of Tears Movie version DVD on my desk.. faster bathe and changed and listen to Yui's album immediately.. as good as i expected it to be.. haha.. at least her music nv fails to impress me.. haha.. okie.. gotta go sleep liaoz.. tml working 940am to 625pm again.. Europa.. and i'm training a foreign trainee lah.. hope nothing happens to him/ her like my other trainees.. i think i have a curse or something.. haiz.. haha..
