Actually I'm not sure if "at work" is really appropriate tho HAHA.
Anyways, the shop was super busy these few days because of Christmas, and since May put me as one of the wrappers, I had to wrap half of the time, not that I'm complaining tho cus it's better than having nothing to do at the back. The shop was sooo busy and there was endless people wanting to wrap so we kept saying that once you offer to wrap/stand at the wrapping area, you cannot leave already.

23/12
Reported at around 10.15am in the morning and I passed the bracelet I made to the people who was in the same
shift as me first and they went to open and wore it in front of me so I was a bit paiseh LOL. & also I wasn't sure if they really liked it or they were just trying to make me feel good HAHAHA.
When May came I requested for my break to be at 1pm so that I can have lunch with Ruth, Jia Ying and Elizabeth (her last day) and so she changed someone from the 1pm slot to me hehe.
& we had eighteen chefs! I guess it was because Ruth and I wanted to have eighteen chef again before I leave work for the year.
fat cheeks but I guess that's not the point
Jia Ying's food came first but she was the one that had longer break (1 hour because full time) while we only had 45minutes and she started eating so we were like staring at her and trying to make her feel uncomfortable and guilty HAHA.
After lunch we left immediately because break was going to be over but then when we were going to go up the escalator, Jia Ying walked to the ice cream shop so we followed and Ruth was like saying "EH BREAK GOING OVER LEH" but me and Jia Ying just ignored and even tried one of the flavor (and I must say the chocolate one was soooo good) but Ruth still managed to pull me and Elizabeth away leaving Jia Ying behind since she still got 15 more minutes. Turns out she did buy the ice cream she tried when we came out from the storeroom to start work again.
May asked me to fold the jumbo plastic bag for the counter so I went to one corner and fold and Elizabeth came over to arrange stuff and take stocks while chatting HAHAHA.
So sad that she's leaving already!! ): Grew so close to her as well but we still keep in contact so it's good! And do you see that bracelet on her wrist hehe.
It was also Tricia's last day and Ruth came over saying that she's so sad etc and also something about working then Angela walked by us and said "Tricia leaving has nothing to do with your work" and we were like wtf so mean.
Folded until about 4pm and we went in to have cupcakes baked by the twins.
Rainbow cupcakessss
Prefer this over the rainbow cupcake because I love chocolate.
When we were done and came out, it became so busy so May told me to stop folding and help Michelle to price tag but Jian Qiang called for me to wrap so I ended up back at wrapping again.
And Augustine came to visit! But he only said hi to me and left because I was busy wrapping.
Wrapped until it was 7.30pm but there was still so much more to wrap and a long queue so May had me stay till 8.30pm which I kinda expected and wanted to since I was going to follow Audrey and Elizabeth for some Christmas shopping. When it was 8.30pm, I went to find Audrey and I find her with Whitney already started shopping in the shop LOL all the while I was thinking that they were restocking.
Since I haven't punch out, I went to help with the queue by helping to roll the wrappers up for the people who were not going for the wrapping service and wrote how many pieces and price so that the packer can have it easier but among the queue that almost went around the shop, only some out of the many people holding wrappers wanted to wrap themselves wtf. I was feeling so glad I got out of wrapping.
Did that until Audrey and Whitney was done shopping but they wanted to pay later when the shop is closing which is one hour later (don't have to queue), they left the items they want in the storeroom and we headed out of the shop to go shop at some other places.
They wanted to go cotton on so I was like OKAY SURE and when we were nearing we saw all the SALE signs and the $5 $10 $15 signs so we were like super excited LOL. Elizabeth didn't have enough money so she couldn't shop and Audrey wasn't into clothes so she chose pouches that she planned to gift people (I think) while me and Whitney went crazy.
I saw this kimono and I didn't even think twice I just took it off the rack and tried it in front of a mirror and decided to buy it since it was what, $10? Then I saw Whitney getting stuff too and she asked me want to go fitting room anot so I started to look more and got more stuff to try wtf. In the end I only bought the kimono and one tank crop top though but I never thought that I could even buy something out of such a rushed shopping session since we only had like about 30 minutes.
We also headed to some other places but didn't get anything because it was just too "expensive" after seeing the $5 signs HAHAHA.
Oh and when we were at Lovisa, Elizabeth went to the Precious Thots atrium booth without realizing that she was wearing our Gift Greetings shirt (both red) so I was like "wtf why you walk into Precious Thots judging all the things with the shirt later people think you spy HAHHA"
Then it was around 10pm so we rushed back to the shop and we saw that the shutter was going down so we ran and shouted LOL WTF and turns out there were still customer inside.
Took some selfies after they paid for their stuff hehe.
Left the shop together and when me and Elizabeth was parting we gave each other a hug and blocking people's way HAHAHA.
Didn't have dinner for the day because the cupcakes and cookies were filling enough.
24/12
Met up with Whitney at around 12pm to have another round of shopping before we start work because all the Christmas / EOY sales are too good to be missed hehe. But in the end I only bought a $2 tote bag from cotton on because the clothes / shoes I want didn't have the size I want ):
Went up to the shop at around 12.40pm and I started my work wrapping.. all the way till about 6pm when I just couldn't take it anymore and got out of the cashier. I felt sooo miserable and suffocated wrapping in the cashier but very thankful for those wrapping with me! (and Annie for the chocolates) But they had it better because they were standing outside the cashier so they could leave and someone else could take over while I was stuck there 6 hours straight :x
Went to the storeroom to rest and drink the milk tea that Anthony treated us. May came in twice and the second time she told me that I rest too long already so I told her I felt miserable and the twins offer to wrap instead so I stayed at Annie's section for the rest of the time.
It was then finally break so I had kfc with Whitney and shortly after we were back, I have no idea why but Whitney, Ruth and I were in the storeroom together and we started taking photos heh.
Come to think of it.. I guess it was because Warren came with a bag of food (which turns out to be chewy junior) saying that it's Christmas presents.
When the shop was about to close, I decided to help to wrap the remaining presents and left with Whitney earlier than the rest even though she pangseh-ed me at the door LOL.

Anyway, Merry Christmas to everyone out there!
Cheers to Christmas sales hehe.
