SP Openhouse 2010

Hm, I managed to survive three days of duty. Not that I was down for duty in the first place, I was only supposed to be on duty from 1300-1500 & 1600-1800 on Saturday today). But the simulator was seriously shorthanded, so there I was, from 0930-1800 for the first two days of the openhouse. I spent all three days running around, but it was kind of fun, so no complains here, lol! Hm, following are the highlights from my three days on duty:

Day One:
A damn busy day for me. The simulator was severely shorthanded. I arrived shorty before 0950, and the few that were on duty arrived only after me, even though the thing was supposed to start at ten in the morning. Not to mention that the lecturer in charge left me in charge before rushing off because he was supposed to be in three places at once, and there are no other lecturers available. So I quickly assigned duties while Elaine called up Captain James, and someone else called Captain Frederick. Spent the rest of the day shuttling between ushering duties as well as the briefing in the Engine Room. Went home tired but somehow satisfied.

Day Two:
Was scared almost shitless when a group of secondary school girls asked to take my picture, on the basis that I was 'cute'. When I refused and ran back into the simulator to escape, they actually chased after me!!! Thankfully, a bus chose to appear just then, and I lied to them, saying that if they miss this bus, the next bus would only come in half an hour's time. Thankfully I learned how to lie from my mother and sister, though I feel guilty about that, lol! Hm, I am sure I was not so back when I was their age. But the best part of the day was that I got a cap, albeit a really ugly one, from SMA.

Day Three:
I think that today was the best day in all of the three days. I had Zack to partner me for my first shift, and I think we did pretty okay :D Then I had a one hour break which I spent most of in the simulator (where else, hahahaha) before dragging poor Ernie to be my partner. Benjamin joined us, and in the end, Ernie just sat down while Ben and I helped each other out with the guiding. Thank Ben!! LOL! Hm, I think we make a pretty good pair of guides :D hahahahahahaha. The best part of the day: Ernie forgot his biology lessons from secondary school, leading to hilarious results!!!! HE MIXED RETINA AND RECTUM UP! OMG, I was laughing my ass off right now even as I think about it again! I think he is the only person I know who has his rectum in his head instead of his lower torso. I would really like to know how he does his big business, and from which part of his face it came out off. Sorry Erie, just kidding ;) But I can't really help it, he is too hilarious for words! I think such cuteness should be illegal! Thanks Ern, for brightening up my shift for me :D

I guess that should be all for now, I want to go and play a couple of rounds of Bejeweled Blitz on facebook...
