hello. i'm blogging again because meiyin and justina exclaimed loudly that they're both toooo busy to even look at the blog when i complained that they didnt care about the blog. :(
this week has been really hectic for all of us cuz we started work officially, and its bloody hell SPRING BREAK now. that means all hell break loose.
this place is getting really really interesting. women with fake boobs who wear skimpy clothes walking around in cold weather. crazy gangsters who shout "hey bitches!" as they drive pass in the car. many many more. :)
time passed really fast last time when we worked at sushi tei... but here, oh my fish, time ZOOOOMS pass lah. the crowd and the queue.... is the same from opening till closing. it never subsides, it never gets any less the whole entire day. i'm really amazed by the crowd.
justina slimmed down dramatically! =D
meiyin claims that she's the roller coaster queen, she's been taking dueling dragons (the scariest roller coaster in universal) a lot.
soo, we had an off day on friday, and we went to DISNEY WORLD.
i think the slideshow is much better here: http://s665.photobucket.com/albums/vv16/gonetoorlando/Disney%20World/?albumview=slideshow
yesterday night, we went to a universal for the mardi gras festival. so anyway mardi gras is a festival thats celebrated god-knows-where, and they brought it to universal. every saturday theres parades and special concerts, and people throw bead necklaces to the crowds from the parade floats, and you gotta just grab em and collect as many beads as possible round your neck. and of course, its another excuse for americans to drink. -_-
and the special concert yesterday was kelly clarkson! boy oh boy there were lots of people. people who came as early as 9AM when the concert only starts at 9PM! by the time we got there at night, the area in front of the stage was already squeezed like mad. we managed to climb over the fence secretly. =\
justina bought turkey leg yesterday. mad big thing.
tomorrow's an early day for us. good night.

things are getting tougher by the day. we're starting to split up into our individual tasks and postings, seeing the competition, facing unfamiliarities.
things are so much harder to do without your friends by your side. =/
hmm and its getting quite busy too. never seems to be a time where theres nothing to do. theres chores, we gotta cook, then theres groceries to get, trash to throw out, yada yada blah blah.
we got to go around the park! took some rides here and there...
the parks are amazing. really, simply amazing.
i cant imagine leaving orlando without having caught all the roller coasters. how many people dream of coming to UO for the rides? i'm all the way here and i dont even dare to get on them. sooooo. i need to mentally prepare myself for getting on them. *gulps*
its getting super duper cold here, even though its supposed to be nearer to summer now. and today, it finally RAINED! freaking uber cold lah. like, 10 times colder than genting.
crimes and accidents everywhere around us too. there was a shooting at our walmart a day ago, then a gun break in over at metrowest today, huge accident near our road in the afternoon... etc etc etc. justina is getting more and more paranoid. LOL.
good nights.

today's an off day!
we went to florida mall and prime outlet.
OHMYGOD I TELL YOU THIS IS A SHOPPING PARADISE.
all of us spent hell loads today. florida mall is damn gigantic, we spent the entire afternoon there, but we only went to 3 stores. 2 full hours in forever 21. -_- the guys were flabbergasted (i think i'm overusing this word).
PRIME outlet was.... made for shopaholics. it has all the brand names factory outlets. guess, coach, espirit, gap, forever 21, kate spade, victoria secret, nike, adidas; these are only 1% of the outlets there.
justina's sleeping acts are getting worse. last night she snorted at meiyin, complained it was very cold, ignored meiyin when she told her to cover more blanket, and walked to the bathroom to blow her nose; get this, SHE DOESNT REMEMBER DOING ANY OF THOSE.
she woke up in the morning and exclaims that she had such a good sleep and didnt wake up in the middle of the night at all. o.0
cya dont wanna be ya.

HOHOHO..
okay, i'm finally here to blog something.
anyway, vivian's always blogging on time so basically everyone will roughly know how we lead the first 2 days of our life in orlando florida.
anyway,
surprisely, i'm not homesick! yet.
HAHAH..
i have no jetlag problem!
i so belong to the United States of the America.
you will be surprised, for once, MEIYIN is not complaining about wanting to sleep! i'm totally energetic as compared to the other 2 crazy girls. Justina's been drinking coffee whenever she can get her hands on one and vivian, she just basically get abit lagged like her laptop, like she just stone in the mids of our walmart shopping yesterday! HAHA..they are not thinking right. WAHAHAHA..so i'm basically owned over here!
Vivian was just telling me, "meiyin, we should just get an apartment and stay here forever! theres nothing left in Singapore that attract me to go back, i think i will just shipped kunkun here..."
so Orlando, Florida still rocks! for now.
we are all very curious and i admit that i acted like some kid or something.
i'm totally amazed by the amount and serving of the food over here. YES, everything is SUPER-SIZED/KING SIZED/FAMILY SIZED! JUST PURE BIG/LARGE/HUGE/GIGANTIC!
their pads are like pampers to us. HOHOHO~
JUST REALLY BIG!
so items are freaking cheap too!
2 hershey's cookies and cream chocolate cost only US$1!!!
cheap can. they have a large variety of instant food that are real cheap!
one thing thats bad is that, their fresh veggies and fruits are freaking EX la.
sigh, you know, i live on veggie and i greatly affected by it.
anyway, they have like 10types of apples lah.
i truely love WALMART! its BIG!
OKAY, even though theres alot of fun things in Orlando, there are some inconvenience as well! For instance, their water from the tap are not totally safe for drinking like in Singapore. Even after boiling, it taste sort of weird. So we got bottled water but we decided to save a few bucks eventually by living on the water boiled! and and the weather's quite dry here! every few minutes, you will see most of us taking out different brands of lip ice to put on our lips cos its cracking. cant stand it. but the weather is like aircon now. when the sun is in, its freaking hot.
hmm, what else to update?
OHYA! i totally looked forward to training soon! i got posted to the dueling dragons ride! its at islands of adventure and its a freaking big rollercoaster! OHMY, DAMN COOL! I WANT TO TEST RIDEEEEE! HAHAHAHAH..
everyone we met here is super helpful and nice. So we are still loving Orlando, Florida and doing great here! but still, we shouldnt let our guard down tooo. cos, there are good people, i believed there will be people who will take advantage of us too. so we willl be extra careful! all and all, we are at a totally different environment, so expect the unexpected!
Anyway, i hope everything will go well!
OKAY, its getting late here!
shall go bathe and watch AMERICA IDOL!
:) update again real soon!
PICTURES IN PHOTOBUCKET!
ciao.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK DAY!

OKAY, justina blogs like shit! oops.
me and justina are experiencing a bit of jetlag; we get really sleepy at like 3-4pm, sleep early at 11pm, and cant sleep pass 5am. horrible, wrecked, messed up body clock. :(
meiyin...... has no problem at all. what a surprise.
AND HAHAHAHA. justina slept talk the very first night!
more like, sleep-yell. she just suddenly sat up in her bed and shouted, "its the first time i'm seeing an oak tree!"
i was flabbergasted, stared at her from my bed across meiyin (the 3 of us sleep together on 3 joint beds), and she just plopped back down and continued snoring...
meiyin didnt even wake up. totally oblivious to it. LOL.
we got our groceries yesterday from Publix (supermarket right round the corner) and Walmart (a few bus stops away). walmart is... like carrefour/giant. we were damn happy to see fresh vege there, but they cost a bomb. :(
the bus stop is pathetic, and the bus comes like one in half hour.
they had giant ice creams there. like, really, really HUGE! first thing we thought was, "andrea sure damn jealous!" LOL.
we went to Universal Orlando today for our first briefing. the culture there is fantastic!
meiyin: atttraction attendant at dueling dragons (damn big scary roller coaster)
justina: sales associate at ripsaw falls (still dunno whats that)
vivian: cook line/production at comic strip lane/cathy's
after our briefing and paperwork, we have the rest of the day off. so we went to have subway for lunch (had that both days we were here). its damn filling and cheap. foot long meal is US7, which we share between 2.
on our way out of twelve oaks.
a flight of stairs down our apartment.
outside twelve oaks apartment at windermere, our housing.
oakcreek street.
donald and daisy, the twelve oaks apartment pets. lol.
after lunch we went to explore more of the area. saw this cool party shop, Party City. meiyin totally loved it. we took so many damn spastic photos there, i'll just pick one.
its st patricks day today. all the greeeeeen stuff.
after we came back, dropped by the gym to visit isaac delene and pierson, and saw tianyi at the pool.
HAAA. justina is napping right now, excited about watching american idol tonight. i think we're eating porridge tonight.
tata.

2) the kitchen has a oven, HUGE fridge, DISHWASHER( i am not kidding a dishwasher)
3) we have a tv with cable of OVER 60 CHANNELS!!
4) however our aircon is faulty and the temperature is a over of 30 degrees bloody HOT!
5) our room have a work in closet with a bathroom that has a *applause* BATH TUB!!!
6) there is a gym, two swimming pools and jacuzzi!!
