Lychee Martinis and Flaming Lambos Pt 1
I dont know why i'm doin this blog entry... I havent done so in such a long time...
I know some of you may want to know about what happened when i was in 'Nam... but i dont feel like bringing that up. Things that have passed shld stay in the past. Its not to say it was bad nor was it a wonderful experience, but it did show me certain points about myself that i've come to reflect upon whenever i drift in my thinking.
'Nuff said... I have a new job and hopefully i will be sticking to it for the long term. I'm a bartender in training at a certain well known clubbing establishment... Its tiring, hectic and oh so time consuming but i do enjoy the company of the bar crew.... I can say that i've been pushed in my training coz i now am able to mix lychee martinis and flaming lambourginis without having completed my training in housepours and mixes... even my seniors are worried that i'm being pushed too fast... but hey, beats washing glasses the whole nite thru... The hours are ohhhhh sooooo long... i am there practically 11hrs a day...I dont think i'll ever go there on my off days or ever... sick of it already...
And speakin of work... i am totally bewildered by the stuff i see there. Guys.... PLEASE... dont make yourselves look like idiots for the planet Duh...the raging need to fornicate or make out doesnt give u a right to act like morons... The stuff i see u do really makes me amused/ashamed. For one.... if u wanna start a conversation w a lady please do not show her how low your IQ is please. If she's drinking a Ribena... NO MATTER WHAT, do not ask her if its an alcoholic drink........... Its a drink for kids for God's sake... Its pretty obvious since she's taking the drink directly from the bottle...
Secondly, if u think u dance reallly cool... pls think again...
The act of steering a bus is NOT a form of dance, and well... random spasms in hope of trying to get it right occasionally doesnt work. I've seen trained monkeys dance better to a pipe organ that prance around with more rythmn. This is precisely why i don't dance... I have feet that do not recognise commands from the nerve central... So i rather leave the clown act to the professionals in the circus where it belongs rather than on the dance floor. IF u wanna dance... please have the guts to take lessons... Its not embaressing... even i do it... although i should say i have the rythmn of a 300 pound gorilla.
Lastly, the drink u order isnt gonna impress no one... KNOWING what you're drinking is much better... chances are you wont end up being dragged from the dance floor at closing time. Ask the bartender about the drinks, its ok.. we will give u our attention and make u a drink that u'll enjoy. Don't go up to us and ask for a whiskey mix and ask what to mix it with... at the same time claim that u only take whiskey... If u really do, then what do u need us for? You dont need to throw your cash around to show that u have it.
Went shopping with Song the other day... WHAT THE HELL has happened to Topman???????? They used to have such cool Tees.... now... its all the stuff for Bengs. Everything for men now are practically catered for the Bengs... where are the simple but nice T's and shirts? Now everything must sport a huge brand motif on it to show everyone what brand it is and how expensive it is. If u wanna be a advertisement billboard go be a Nascar... the guy fashion here is really pathetic these days...
To be continued...
