I got this toothache on the top left row of my inner teeth so bad that I need a dentist...but that was one week ago...it miraculously recover on it's own 2 days ago...so ...end of story.

The thing about beauty...or being beautiful...whatever
I won’t say it is unfair....after all I am not the one who is being at a disadvantage. This doesn’t mean I am beautiful, instead the following scenario clearly illustrate that I am being discriminated against becos I am not as 'beautiful'...what an irony...however this discrimination only means I get to SKIVE at work...and work less compared to my fellow colleagues...where both of them happen to be very pretty....double irony?.. The story starts 2 weeks ago where I register to a new agency for a special event job where typing skill is required...I work for the agency in a very large conference held in the SECC(something like SunTec or EXPO in Singapore)...as a registration lady..where my main job is to register new participant for the events that is available for the whole 5 days conference.....and make them pay...blah blah blah...so it happens...I was registration lady number 12...sandwiched between lady 11 and 13...where lady 11 is a very pretty Indian girl...with bushy eye lashes and very exotic make up...very pretty...and lady 13..was a Scottish Chinese...VERY PRETTY as well...BIG EYED...sweet smile , good complexion ,simple make up and all...then me...small eyed NO make up..frizzy hair...pimpled face.......the 3 of us doing On-site registration for doctors and researchers from all over the world......
At first, everything is under control and I felt very bored...then I was still very bored...and again very bored... slowly I realise desk 11 and desk 13 is always occupied....by enquiries...and registration...becos it is an open area...people just walk up to the desk themselves...so they have a choice who they want to be served...while I serve only 6 participant in 3 hours....my next door neighbour...lady 13 served 10......plus a lot of lost participant seeking help from her...while my desk is “patronless”....and she had to refer them to me...whom I happily take over.....nothing really struck my mind until when both my desk...(desk 12) and desk 13 is free...and a handsome Spainish doctor...walk towards the desk....lady 13 was not paying attention to him...while I smile at him...and was about to offer some help... he just walk pass me and register with lady 13....at this point...I understand the whole situation and what is actually going on for the whole day....people just walk towards these 2 ladies out of instinct and I am sadly...(in terms of personal pride) being ignored in a sense becos I DUN ATTRACT THEM...however is secretly happy and have nothing to complain about (in terms of personal advantage) becos in this way...I work less, get the same pay...and make less mistakes.....and frankly speaking I wont blame that spainish doctor...becos I will also choose to register with Karen (lady 13) instead of myself if I were him becos..she really is so pretty that even I will steal glance at her occasionally...and on top of that..very sweet and friendly...the prefect image of a customer service rep...
So...life is fair and square...like what my friend ah guan have said before...for my case today...even though my pride was a little hurt for the fact that the handsome doctor did not register with me eventually...I shouldn’t mind at all becos if this kind of scenario keep happening for the rest of the days....I am more than glad.. as long as I get paid!
