A double mint a day, keeps Carmen awake

I cannot deny how powerful the Wrigley's advertisement was which caught my attention the other night when I was watching the presidential debates.

I started to like Chris Brown's FOREVER after a few times I listened...And I feel so want to take a Doublemint when I went shopping at the Wal Mart yesterday. Haha...Luckily they got this small pack for 88 cents.

DOUBLEMINT


Anyway, there are many BENEFITS to chew a gum for your information:
1. Improve your oral health

"Chewing sugarfree gum after eating is clinically proven to be an important part of good oral health."

2. A good diet & weight management

"The effect of chewing gum was to reduce snack intake by 25 calories; hunger and the desire to eat were significantly suppressed by chewing gum."

3. Improve focus concentration & alertness

"A non-scientific informal survey of the 591 students found that students who chewed 5 gum prior to, and during, test-taking said they had better scores on the exam than those who didn't chew gum".

4. Helps stress relief


Study shows that "gum chewers were more calm and relaxed in dealing with life's everyday stresses when they chewed gum."

Sunday

Sunday morning thank God it's not raining...

I walked to Wal*Mart to bank in my paycheck, bought some stuff & had my breakfast @ McD...

Sausage Mcmuffin with egg, 2 for $3 but I got it 3 for $3. How come? It's because...They gave me sausage mcmuffin without egg and when I asked to change only for one burger, they gave me two brand new. Nice huh? But...I guess I won't be eating mcD breakfast anytime soon. Haha...I know it's FAT!

12pm worked at the BEER GARDEN, a place which I started to have some fun today. :) I started to get close to other employees a.k.a. the kids here, and I think my supervisors like me too. Muahahaha...I'm just hardworking.

Employees are not supposed to use their cell phone in view of the guests but here's something happened in front of me and I can't help it that I must take a picture of it. But of course, I asked their permission whether I could take a picture of them.

It was raining in the evening, the park was about to closed. There was this 'pretty' family (oh, the dad looks hot! haha...) They came in not for food, but for some plastic bags to cover their kids from the rain. So we got them the garbage bag and here's what he did.

Covering the kids, one by one

He was making a raincoat!

Two of his cute daughters

Totally forgot about the Fright Fest today. This vampire came in BEER GARDEN with a saw and tried to freak us out by standing in front of us and stared at me. Haha...Hope I don't get nightmare tonight!

I took pictures too with my friends at BEER GARDEN

Alexander & I (Can you believe? He's 17)

Amy & I (Can you tell? She's 31!)

That's about today. I was busy today and didn't really enjoy the FRIGHT FEST...I worked until 8pm and had my free dinner (a Bratwust) @ BEER GARDEN. Then,I came home and rest my poor hands & legs. Though I'm tired but I'm happy. :) Good night everyone.

From zero to six hours

Early morning webcam with mama for about 1 1/2 hours, can't believe we talked for so long. Haha...I have found my target of life...I'll try my best if I can, okay?

Then, Gan told me that his supervisors came and informed that Sook Mun & him do not need to work today as the park is closed. But, there's no one inform me and Gan's supervisors did not tell him to inform us as well...I was thinking, no work today? No no...I must fight for the hours, I haven't get 30 hours this week, how can I take a day off today?

I went to talk to the HR and forced her to find us something to do. It's her fault that she didn't inform us about the park closed anyway. She received many calls too, which complain about not informing them and they had to come all the way from their home which is very far away. Then, my HR Ms Raeann said to herself: "This is the worst day of my life". Haha... People here can't even take a little stress.

She then asked another supervisor whether there is something that can make me & Abigail to get busy for at least 4 hours. Eventually, they got us something to do.

Which means, I don't work at BEER GARDEN today. Instead, I worked at this place:

I like the booth, Haunted House Tickets

So, what did we do today? We wiped the tables and chairs...For 6 hours...We only managed to finish one section of the place. There are two more sections but they don't need us to do it. Phew!

I took some pictures when I feel too bored. Haha...

Kajon said I looked emo in this pic, maybe I was too bored & exhausted already

Curi tulang session, we took more pictures of the FRIGHT FEST deco.

Look what 'they' done to the Great Escape?

Even my BEER GARDEN! =.=


This house belongs to?

Bones, but of what?

I spotted a huge spidy, beware!

I have no idea, what is this thingy?

RIP

Finally some peace for this fellow

I like this: See you soon (Muahaha)

Deco in the HR office (pic taken when I sign out)

Coffins

My first time in a coffin, I remember Nick did this in the Everybody's clip, as a MUMMY...Haha...

Okay, a pic before I go 'home'

Trying new stuff tonight: Potato Soup (Yummy)

I had super nice & yum yum dinner...I used oil only for the scramble eggs...I know it's not healthy enough, but I took apple, banana & plums today. I threw all my vegetables away today because they are frozen and cannot be eaten anymore, due to some selfish reasons. =.=

Like mama said, close half eyes, give PEACE a chance...Fine! No vege for dinner! But take a good look!

Sweet Candy

I'm grateful for being able to work for another day today. See how hardworking I am?

So, I walked to the BACKSTAGE this morning and met Fay. We did the inventory thoroughly and Fay said she hated it so much! I was laughing all the way and I took some of her picture from the back while we were working. She didn't know! Muahahaha...

Fay, the grumpy old lady
Don't get me wrong, she's a nice person who is nice to work with, depends on her mood though
So freaking cold inside the cooler..
Lunch with my supervisors, Fay & Penny (They are both mother & daughter). Penny was saying she's gonna kick Fay's ass, which is something that we don't see it happened in Malaysia.

Best stuff of the day..I assumed its banana cake with cinnamon topping...Thanks Fay
After our lunch break, Fay brought us to Crazy Joe's Gyros to make cotton candy for the Fright Fest this weekend!

Even Fay has to learn how to make cotton candy from Marie
Marie pouring candy floss

That's the cotton candy which Marie holding :) Lime taste

Me making the cotton candy
Sweet sweet with the cotton candy

Had too much sugar today, oops..I forgot to take some sugar for the NESCAFE I bought from Wal*Mart last night.

As for now, I'm doing some research about GLEN FALLS. Yup, might be going there tomorrow, but definitely I won't go to SARATOGA. I know SARATOGA sounds cool, but what's the point? I don't like horse racing. I don't like horsies, please. I wanna try the Chinese buffet tomorrow if I don't go to GLEN FALLS! Yay!

Dinner: Healthy salad!

Healthy & Yummy!
