Yesterday my uncle opened a bottle of Zinfandel from US. Both my cousin and me tried a glassful and hhmm what can I say, the most prominent of it all is the spiciness. A mild sweetness is detected behind the spiciness although I couldn’t really figure out what is the smell, probably due to my flu. Work thus far have been quite lenient other then the occasional guilt of unable to absorb so much information in such a short time. Then again, I aint a super woman. It does affect my job a hell lot due to my product knowledge. As far as retail goes, a certain amount of confidence is needed to bring yourself out there. I couldn’t really do that till now coz my product knowledge is almost none. I am working on it though, so yeah…

There isn’t any wine sampling today, a little bit disappointed as I was really looking forward to it. We’re quite pre-occupied though, so I guess we didn’t have much choice. Not that business is so good, more of pounding information to my rusty brain, I guess I kind of tire my uncle out as well, not that he show any signs but you know, teaching someone can be very tiring.

I was planning to make a list of products in my computer so I can remember them better. At least when I type out myself, I am able to remember them easier. I got to do this during my own personal time but I guess it’s ok since I am curious myself and I haven’t really feel like I am working during my time in the shop. It’s more like free lesson to be able to work in a wine shop; I am more than thankful already. Not only the free lessons, the working environment couldn’t be better. A good boss thus far, although I think he sees me as a 100% niece instead of an employee. Ok la, maybe 90% niece 10% employee, coz really, I don’t think there is a boss out there who will be so kind to their staff. Unless you know… he is exceptional. Then again, it’s been only 4 days who knows what will happen next time eh?

Although I want to take full time, but I guess I will only do that after I am satisfied with the amount of product knowledge I have. So in the mean time, I will just look at the possibility of another part time job to stand in ASAP. Been a little tight on my purse lately, I really need to do some serious control over my $ else I would end up eating the west north wind. *sigh* Not to mention the amount of $ I will need for the near future. Looking at my future, I really see nothing, or if there is anything, it would be the bare vast desert that is about to eat me up. Sometimes I wonder if there is a point in living like this, or even just living itself. I know how I sound, really, but I can’t help feeling this way. I hope $ will just fall from the sky.

Lets skip the pain in the ass thoughts and talk about what I dream last time… I dreamt I was a pro violinist and broke one of the string during one of my play. My music before the string actually broke, had some kind of magical power that could lead anyone to do as I wish. I can’t remember the details, but anyway, I was thinking now that if I really have such power, the first person I would want to control is probably my dad. Control how he thinks… then second, I will make a rich evil man that is really filthy rich and super evil, the (buy fierce kill human kind)-direct translate to Chinese-, transfer all his $$ to me and then stay sickly forever… and forget that he ever had the $$ he transferred to me. I hope the amount is 10million if not I will target more filthy rich super evil man. I have plans for all the 10 million already. Yes I know it’s imaginary $ but you know, I have the right to plan imaginary possibilities since it’s my own. 2million to keep in bank for the purpose of laying eggs, 2 million to buy a house in aussie, 1 3 million to buy 2 more houses for *secret* in Singapore. 1 million to furnish my house in the laziest manner. *whatever it is that can make my daily life more convenient then ever can be* The rest throw in bank. The interest can probably let me survive the rest of my life of coz without luxury. I don’t ask for much though.

*sigh* comparing my daydream fantasy and reality future, worlds apart.

Anyway my deer friends. An announcement I have to make before I end my blogging here in this very lonely night.

I am broke, so big chance I won’t be able to go out unless it’s window shopping and cheap meals. Job changing always like that, especially when I am working different part time altogether. So yeah, anything expensive, just skip me.
