Big Weekend

This weekend would be my busiest days of my working career.
Large crowds expected, compared to the normal near deserted days there.
Over the past two years, there had been no empty tables at all on Valentine's Day.
I'm nervous, but looking forward to it also. It is going to be really busy.
Yesterday, the preparation started. Many cakes were baked, but I spent about 2 hours just folding serviettes.
I was tired looking down, then I started bending my neck here and there to stretch, and my manager laughed at me. Ugh...
But I couldn't believe how empty it was on that day. 7 groups of customers in my full 6 hours of duty. That is the lowest I have ever experienced.
But for today - Subrash and Tishaan's going to join me at work. Hopefully they'll be fine.

This morning, around 10.a.m (I'm still asleep at this time), my mom started banging the door.
Then she asked me where the car key was.
I told her I hanged it back (at the place it should be)
Then she called my dad, asked him...
Turns out that he brought BOTH the sets of car keys to KL.
He went to the Mercedes to get something, forgot to put the keys back, and drove the Hilux to KL.
We do have spare keys for the Merc, but I was awaken for nothing...
Now I'm a bit sleepy. Hopefully I can do my job properly at work.

And finally, reasons I hate Valentine's Day
1. Prices of eveything goes up - flowers, food etc.
2. Restaurants are ridiculously crowded.
3. Romantic areas will have too many people. I don't like crowded places.
4. The main reason - Why show your real sacrifice only on Valentine's Day, when true love should be shown every single day?
And if I were to celebrate Valentine's Day anyway, at home I will barbecue some meat for the two of us, sit and enjoy the night, the breeze, the stars (If any).
Saves the money, saves the petrol, away from the crowd. Perfect for me.
And if you don't accept me being different, suit yourselves. Go ahead and call me weird and stuff if you want to.

Hmmm... just to cheer myself up - accommodation organised fully already for Singapore!
Looks like I don't have to camp in SG. Paramore, here I come!
