Its my first time participating such external events. Normally, I would be quite reluctant to do so as I'm not into such stuff, such as helping out or something. I would probably staying at home, using the computer or even just go the carpark and play soccer alone just to kill time. Anyway, this is one of the events that we are suppose to do during the whole SPT program, then no one has the choice but to do it, as a team.

Anyway, I cant sleep last night after watching soccer at Jia Long's house with Eugene, Jimmy and Kian Wee. Yeah... Liverpool won 2-1 to Everton but that doesnt matter. It was a nice match but seriously, the better team didnt win. Liverpool did scrape through with 2 penalties awarded, which I find the 1st penalty wasnt much a contact. Well, its all done and set but still, Eugene's happy with the result while I'm being entertained, then it doesnt matter anymore.

I woke up at 5am this morning, thanks to Azirah's morning SMS and my Mum's alarm clock. Haix... Once I'm awake, I went to check the scores for Manchester United match and goodness gracious me, they won 4-1 to Aston Villa. Phew... What a relief... Well, once I'm done with the packing, I ran down to the nearby bus-stop to meet Azirah and we took a cab down to get Huai Xin before heading to Funan Mall for the meet-up.

The taxi driver was a bad driver, maybe he can choose to switch into a better career or something. He asked silly questions which I have no choice but to help him. Questions like "Where is Gambus Avenue?" and "Where is Funan Mall? Is it at City Hall? Do you know how to go there?" -.-" Gosh!! We wont be asking for a cab if we know the place well... The good thing about everything is still, we manage to be there on time.

Once everyone was there, we went to the booth to check things out for the event. Mr Dexter came moments later and he gave us the Addidas shirt, shorts and shoes for our work duty. Although the shoes are all custom made sizes, which has all the weird numbers imprinted into it, it is still good to own one pair of shoes, which cost around $130 to $180 in the current marktet. In additon of the shirt and shorts... that would be more than $250 in total??!! Cool!

The event begins and the gang and I, except for Kenny, Farhan, Daryl and Ryan, are helping out to count the shoes that were wore by the runners. This is to reseach on the record of how many people are wearing Addidas shoes, as well as to know who are their compeitors and what could be done to market your stuff and win your competitors and many stuff. I was in-charge of New Balance shoes so I gonna watch out for the 'N' logo.

It wasnt that good at first as the runners are too fast. Luckily there's Firduaz helping me or else I will go bonkers. Anyway, I got to know the technique of looking at the shoes and it was amazing. Its easy if there is 2 or 3 runners running in front of you but the problem comes when 10 or 15 of them run pass you at an instance. Hence, the speed of looking at things must be quick. Luckily, I gonna be competing in Standard Chartered and if I dont, I guess I would be counting shoes for 40,000 people instead of today's 7,500??!! By the end of the look out for the shoes, once I turn my attention to other stuff, my eyes seems to be fooling me. The road moving through this illusion and I need to close my eyes and rest. Haha... Too much shoes is bad for eyesight I guess. Haha...

Anyway, once everything was done, I felt happy for it, at least I do learn some new stuff about how to promote your events and many more. It sounds easy but actually, these companies are smart enough to provide customers with services instead of just passing flyers around. That's a good tactic that in the future we could learn if we want to market our products. Anyway, by the end of the day, everyone seems to be enjoying the event. James Wong was there with his son, Jordon. He is one cute little guy but he doesnt talk at all. Maybe he's just shy... hehe...

With a debrief of the event and with some words from Mr Dexter and James Wong, the event is finally done and closed. Some of us went to had lunch, also known as breakfast for some at Marina Square before heading home. Huai Xin and I took the same train and we just doze off straight. I'm too tired till I dont feel like getting out of the train. I alighted at Sembawang, making the effort to go to the library first before heading home. Its just a habit of mine, which I dont think its easy to drop it. Once I'm home, a nice shower and let my torrents to run the whole day before I sleep. Haha.... Too shagged...

Tomorrow is a new day again. Back to attachment and I have tons of stuff to do. Alright!!! I gonna work hard, for my results, for my projects, for the concert and for my SLEEP!!! I gonna rest now...

I had a haircut just now. I dont know what's gonna be like tomorrow morning when I style my hair but.... haix... Hope its nice... [ =_= ]
