my new stint in dixie's @ mosque street
dixie's is located right next to the infamous cow & coolies ktv pub (aka the rainbow flag pub aka lesbian pub) as shown below:
ive known the boss for 4 years through my ex bf LL. and since i love to drink and sing. and instead of spending money indulging in all these hobbies. i might as well earn as i drink and sing. topping that. i am jobless now so an extra income will definitely be more than welcome. the boss generously accepted my offer to help at a very non-exactly-generous rate which as according to him is subject-to-increment.
what sort of customers do you get there?
let me try to classify them. well it's a pretty good mix of (not in any order):
1. middle aged married-yet-lonely PMEBs in desperate need of attention from SYTs like us waitresses.
2. lesbians who came over when cow and coolies get too crowded.
3. regulars who occupy the whole bar so they can sing more songs.
4. avid pool players who bet a range of $10-50 per game.
5. cheapos who come in for cheap drinks @ $17/jug during happy hours and $20/jug after that.
6. retired old men who comes in for 6 hours drinking only 2 mugs of beer as they got nothing better to do at home.
7. lost tourists.
8. ang moh men/tourist looking for some kinky fun (we have filipinos working too).
9. regular dvd peddlers.
i have nothing against the lesbians as i simply love girls sometimes (half the time actually) too. but the bunch that comes to dixie's are to be categorized as one of those simply think they are the damn stylo-almighty-no-one-can-ever-do-without-or-be-better. they think they owe the place just because some losers keep opening free bottles of martell and chivas for them. they sashay into the bar area and start manipulating with the order of song dedications. of cos to their advantage. skipping other table's turn.
they are one of the rudest and impolite lesbians i have ever met. SHAME ON YOU! coming from a history of being one myself. i am proud i aint like them less those times that i get drunk. but at least even when i am drunk. i am just BITCHY not RUDE. they have no sense of dressing. their choice of partners were world's greatest mysteries. they eat peanuts and litter the entire floor beneath their seats and tables. and they act atas. giving specific orders of how to prepare their martells and chivas. like they paid for it eh. they order you around. they dont smile back when you try to make eye contact. they are simply incorrigible + horrible = inhorrigible! dont like that. will make a mental note not to work on fridays cos of them.
sinus operation got postphoned
my frontal sinus is badly infected and needs some surgical procedures to correct it. dr stephen lee is my specialist in charge and also my surgeon for this endoscopic sinus surgery . so now you all know who to look for if anything happens to me after my operation.
my agent from aia just called me two days ago to inform me that if i undergo my operation now. i might not be able to get the full claim as the health shield that i have just upgraded myself only kicks in after june 1st. hence unless i can guarantee that my daily professional + ward fees dont exceed 1700 in order to be 100% covered. i'd better postphone my operation.
i havent called the specialist yet. i think they will hate me. cos this will be the second time i am postphoning my operation. the first was when i realised BF had to go to jakarta and will not be back in time for my op. then i postphoned it a week later. so he can see me out of my operation when he touches down singapore. but now. fingers crossed. hope the nice anijah will not curse and swear at me.
and im sad that my 2d1n "hotel" accommodation @ raffles hospital is postphoned. was so looking forward to their meals and my daily hospital income. boo hoo hoo.
mahjong session @ strathmore avenue blk 48 level 21
its been a long time since i last mahjonged. the last was at effy's. where i won 100+ if i havent remembered wrongly.
a bored sunday drove me to jio my new friend JL and effy to mahjong. 1800hr was the time the battle started. i think my luck was fully utilized during my last session. my first round ended in damage of 120. second round was worse. damage increased to 160. the third. fourth. fifth and sixth round. all remained the same.
despite my desperate attempt in changing positions. changing seats. shifting the tables. i still lost a total of 130. opponents were too strong and i firmly believe that the fengshui in that apartment did the owner good. placing me in a disadvantage. my max combo hit was only 5 folds. and after that everytime when my formation was at its peak. someone has to win with the minimum fold. either that. or i got too greedy and lost the chance to win. or. someone has to win at the maximum fold when my tiles were all over the place. general luck must be sick tonite. and my allied party effy managed to win 60.
hence. after the gruelling 12 hours of battle. i lost. but i was not the worst. the worst opponent was dealt with a total damage of 220. though i believe that when her bf was playing for her in the first 2 rounds. they were in fact winning.
despite the fact that i lost the battle. i kinda felt happier. it is a wonder the feelings mj brings to me. i love the game to the max even though i am always the losing party. its the process of going through it. knowing your opponents better. trying to better guess their moves. preventing higher loss. minimizing damages. thrilling. exciting. euphoric. orgasmic. simply indescribable.
however i really do need to take a break from my mj battles. my M health isnt looking so good nowadays. need to find something else to curb the itch. effy promised me blading though along the ghim moh-ulu pandan stretch. so looking forward!
total damage:
taxi fare to battle ground - $10
damage from battle mj - $130
taxi back from battle ground - $10
consolation for losing the battle - $4.50
