finally the deserve rest

Hey guys, seriously too busy to blog liao. Since now able to have sometime off work and relax, time to update you guys on my life.

You may be wondering what i have been up too. To announce, i am now Business=Entrepreneur
My business is teaching people to sew their own personalize bags and sales of Brother sewing machine. Since the start of my year 3, we are to plan the business and to carry it out in semester 2. So i have been busy preparing for my business since i started with my holiday.

Making sample bags, painting of pushcart, planning official launch and of course the busy time is pushcart duty. Huisan and me was the 1st team to man the cart For the 1st day, we are not really prepare so we are to price the stock, stock count and do visual display. The day seems short and since we just started, we are more of introducing our business to the students and staff. Next day, finally close a sale. The happiness is really undesirable. No words can describe the feel of the money in my hand. Following days were tough. We are busy promoting the machine and answering enquirers of customer. There was a lot of adjustment in the operation and we make mistake and changes along the way.

As the official launch nears, we are busy promoting the competition and the time is tight. We got to managed customer who are sewing the drawstring bag as well as multi task. It was a challenge as at that time, i wish i could duplicate myself to be share around. Networking is very important social and esp biz. Following week, putting up poster, more teaching to do, official launch, designing and handover.

Thinking back to the 12th October 2008, the day before school reopen. That day i was still thinking how i wish to go back to be a student where there is fixed timing and class compared to spending 2 weeks @ the cart. I was thinking all the negative and had a bit of fear build up in me. However, on monday every doubts was solved and my partner are there to make the day and the duty fun and interesting. Thanks to World No. 1, Most Talkative, Miss Perfect. haha ;) Not forgetting all my friends (ESP: SHERYL) who have come down to support me either in biz or spirit. Wouldn't you all, i would think it was a chore and not a job. As i build up my passion, i find that i love the job and biz more and more everyday. Life is more fulfilling and everyday i look forward to a new day. I guess i have change.

Sorry to many people for not having time for you all. Adeline, miss you but waiting for your reply, i guess my guess is right. Is mr right with you now? Please dun forget me. Zain, Kevin, Ewen, Emily: belated bird-days.

Monday is a public holiday and i have no plans for the day. Anyone wants to grab this chance? After that, i will be back to school and working my butt off once again, so book me soon before i make my plans. I am waiting for invitation as i am tired to plan social outing now.

Finally, long post about my 2 week. will update every 2 weeks at the least (applicable).
Rest time and waiting for invitation.

My 1st in painting

Today woke up damn early. 6am. bath and off to buy paint for our pushcart. Dad bought me to his industrial area which sells cheap paint. 3.5l paint cost 17.50 as compared to 5l nippon which cost $54. Since we would used the pushcart for 14 weeks only so cheap is the way to go. I reached school round 9am. Then i have been sanding the pushcart for almost an hour and angie and jac came. After a while, san came too. So we are efficient and finished the 1st layer by 1pm. Off to lunch @ sumo house. Had "standard" with gyoza. Went back to school to finished up the painting. Left angie and me. So the speed is slow and we spent till like 6+ and san is back to help us again. We finished painting, left some magic touch and we are done. Will post the pictures after all work.

Tips on painting

Must wear gloves or you will have trouble to wash up later.
Determine what type of paint you are using. Oil or water based. Thus, for oil, after you use your roller brush, throw the roller away so as to save trouble.
Always have a bottle of tinner and some rag round you.
Always sand the surface before paint so as to have smooth surface later.
Pour amount needed into painting tray and close the paint tin so as to prevent air from coming into contact with the paint. results of exposure-hardening of paint.

Had a warm and wonderful bath, follow by a nice meal takeaway from JE. Had curry pork, herbal chicken shared with my bro. After a fulfilling day, my body is having its aftermath.
Off the manga-ing!!
