Tomorrow, I will be meeting this guy I know since December 2007 from Myspace.com. Dont worry, I know how to take care of myself. We're meeting at public place, btw.
How the 'friendship' started. In the month of December of 2007, I received message, from this Chinese guy.. Before I replied to his message, I viewed his profile.. An aquarian (just like Hady) and same age as Hady! He stayed in BP (try to guess whats BP stands for - not blood pressure lah k! A plc!) Then came the interesting part.. Under the section of Who I Want to Meet, he wrote, "A friendly and gentle lady esp malay. FYI, my previous 2 relationships were with malays too.." The About Me(or was it his shoutout? Cant remember) section of his read, "Searching for other race gal, preferably malay who can give me comfort and luv.."
After viewing his profile, I read the message from the Chinese guy, the contents of which read, "Hey! tis is (his name - which I shall not disclose at the moment) here. Its my pleasure to meet u here! I hope to become ur fren.. How do I address u? Do u have a msn add? I add u ok? (he gave me his msn - and he added me to his friend's list too) Hear u soon ya.. :) Opps... btw ur pic r all really fantastic!"
*thank you for commenting on my photos*
Yes, I replied and we have been exchanging messages in myspace and MSN. There was one time when I believe he wants more than just chatting, he gave me his hp number. Err, ok.. He waited and waited and there was this message flashed on the screen, "Whats urs?" Oh.. He wants MY number? I think it over carefully and hey, I am single what.. I have the right to make friends with whoever, but of coz there's some limitations and have to be careful as not to get misunderstood till there's CONFLICT + Controversy. So, what the heck! I gave him MY number. We moved to sms from that day.
Well, me and this chinese guy didnt really sms each other everyday. Busy what.. His profession is in sales line with M1.. Thats what he told me..
FYI: He rides a bike. I'm ok with that AS LONG AS he didnt offer me a lift on his bike.. NO WAY.. I have phobia.. I heard of too many pple died, got injured and/or hospitalized due to riding a bike.. I dun wish to take the risk. Remember this: Two former schoolmates of mine, Allahyarham Mohd Faizal bin Sani and Allahyarhamah Siti Rizana (forgot whats her dad's name) passed away due to motorbike accidents.. Since then, I have phobia in motorbikes already.. :/
So, tomorrow I will be meeting him. I told some of my friends.. A few of them said to me, "We have been talking about it and we predicted that u'll end up marrying a non-malay, in this case: Chinese guys.. Reason: U have this chinese blood in u". =.= What a silly perception.. I replied, "Hady Mirza has chinese blood in him too..so does that mean, he will end up marrying chinese girls?" A 'disgusted' look on their faces. They complained, "Kau eh Maria... tak habis-habis dgn HADY... HADY... HADY...Boring ah nak berbual dgn kau! Asal berbual asyik sebut Hady Hady..."
Hahaha.... :D
*Tak salahkan, sebut Hady?* :P
I have reiterate this many times, we planned and leave it to fate. Kita merancang. Tuhan menentukan. Besides, I'm only meeting him NOT dating him.. Its two different issues. Its not wrong to meet new pple rite? Oh dont have this thinking, "Maria is so desperate...." Hahaha.. I am not. I want to be more social. Can?
In relation to my entry below, dated 15 March 2008, I ranted about searching for part time job. Secret Recipe hasnt called me to confirm if I really got the job. I went for Walk-In-Interview at Seoul Garden. Yes..Seoul Garden.
Somehow when I stepped in the restaurant.. I dun feel comfortable. Maybe the person who interviewed me didnt welcome me warmly. Even during the interview she made me uncomfortable. Maybe she in the need of staffs so she offered me the job! Yes, the one at Marina Square. I have to start this coming Sunday.. Thats too sudden!
I know I shld take it since the offer is already given BUT I have to work till 11plus and my grandmother wont like it! In addition, the work is not only in servicing the customers, I have to do maintenance, I dun mind trying.. I dun mind doing BUT the woman told me.. Once u work here, have to do.. cannot try.. =.=
*Some of my friends advised me to take it since I am in a need to help my family's income. I have to learn about hardships. Yes, I know but somehow I dun like the environment of Seoul Garden.. hmm..*
I got a shocked when I was given the offer.. If other restaurants, I felt ease but only at Seoul Garden I felt uncomfortable.. I dun knw why... Is it because I am only meant to be there as a customer (in future) and not an employee? Hahaa..
Then how?! I havent discussed this with my family members.. My mother definitely said "yes", she's in the need of cash what.. She has retired.. What about my grandmotheR?! Sighz.. Oh please Secret Recipe / Gloria Jean Coffee, PastaMania, Swensens and New York New York (yes, those were the plcs I'd gone too - there's more still) call me.. I like ur environment. :D
Pay? Pay doesnt matter.. Environment is impt.. Anyway, if I agreed to take the job at Seoul Garden..I have to pay $22 for the uniform (only the upper uniform plus apron) and name tag. The rest we have to use ours: black cap, (BLACK CAP! When I told her, I dun have one.. She said to me in that arrogant tone, "u have to buy lah.. we're not going to provide..") black shoes, black socks and black pants. Wait a minute! I dun see any girls working there! No!!!!
How? Shld I take? Sighz...
