Exciting YE Sales Day 2

22th July
Reached Queensbay at around 8.30 and saw some other school's achievers were just waiting for the securities to unlock the door for them. However, i found out that the north gate was open but nothg to do inside there though becoz Teacher Ng were not there yet. The boxes packed were in her car. Till around 9, Teacher Ng and some other achievers came so we started to setup our stall again.

Waited for Hobart to arrive as he held the printed shrinkable papers and we needed it to continue our production in school. Teacher fetched me to the school to meet Khay Min, E Jiat and Zheng Lik. I would like to use this chance to praise and thank them as they sacrificed their time for the production even though they actually had tuitions to attend. After 2 and half hours of hard work, we managed to complete all the D.S. in time. We went back to Queensbay after that.

I had my lunch with Khay Min and E Jiat in KFC, thank god the food were nice as some of the packed ones were already as cold as ice. We went to take over the sales duty to let others go and have their lunch.

When it's almost time to stop the sales, Zheng Lik, Chun Kit, Khay Min, Chuan Yean and me went to "SAPU". We went from the 1st to the last stall to look for nice products becoz we wanted to buy some as souvenir. We bought 3 lamps together which costs RM15.90 each, but after ZLik went to bargain with the salesmen there, we managed to get them at a price of RM40 instead of RM 47.70. We bought a well-designed wood clip and they wrote our names on it. Besides, I felt that the octopus key chain from union is not bad after comparing it with other key chains, so i bought 1.

Our stall managed to give out our lucky draw prizes. DVD player was given out just before the sales end and the pendrive was given out during a real lucky draw, LOL. We wanted to give out our DVD player so much that we gave an offer that is buy 30 get DVD player. Yet there were people who did not believe it but the truth is we really gave out our DVD player.

After the sales, we packed everything up. We decided to go for a dinner to celebrate but unfortunately Keat Yang was not able to join us as he needed to bring the packed boxes back. We had our dinner at Breeks and then I suggest to go to Starbucks or Coffee Bean for a drink as celebration. We went to the Starbucks in Borders. Only me, E Jiat and Kai Wen had bought drinks. E Jiat was there playing with one of the teddy bears bought by ZLik's cousin.

Before going back, we took some group photos.

Exciting YE Sales Day 1

Finally, 21 and 22 July, YE sales at Queensbay. This is something that achievers would be afraid of but at the same time, had looked forward to it long time ago. Luckily, we, Blitzkrieg Enterprise a.k.a Chung Ling YE had successfully completed all the products in time and were ready to BATTLE.

21th July
E Jiat, Li Yang and me were volunteer to help out during the stall setup from 9 to 11 morning as the sales would start at 11 and we were afraid that those who on duty could not make it in time. Xien Yu was not there too, he is the marketing director!!!!! and yet he should be the one to decide on the decorations of our stall but we understand that he had his librarian AGM to attend for getting post. xD

11am, the time had arrived and we started the SALES. There were some other achievers who came and wanted to be on duty so I was freed, LOL. Went to meet Keat Yang, E Jiat and Li Yang for a walk in Queensbay. The rich and handsome E Jiat (sorry to say that he is already unavailable) belanja us each a big CREAM PUFF which costs 3.30 each. He said that if the cream puff was not nice then we would not need to pay for that, of course we all said that it was not nice. We joked too much and that made me forgot that i have to pay him back the 3.30.

Around 12.10, i went back to the stall to be on duty. The sales was bad, only 10 handphone straps were sold. We were really shocked and afraid that people might not like our products. After some hardworks, we managed to sell out 25 D.S(Designer's strap) in the following hour which exceeded our sales target that was onli 15 an hour. Fortunately, things went better and better as we had great salesmen like Keat Yang, Hobart, Xien Yu, Zheng Lik and E Jiat. Although i tried very hard to introduce and persuade customers to buy our products, the result was not so good. May be i am not as handsome as they are and my voice is not so nice, in addition they have better speaking skills and ENGLISH.=(

At the end of the sales, we found out that we had sold over 230 D.S and alot of designs were sold out, so we decided to continue producing D.S. on sunday morning. ZLik's mum came and fetch him and me to Bon Odori. We were damn LUCKY. As we were going to reach the spot, just a few buildings of distance, we heard the fireworks....SAW NOTHG BUT THE SMOKE FROM THE FIREWORKS, LOL.

REGRET OF THE DAY
1) Saw a girl that i met during last week's beach trip but was not able to go ahead and know her or get her hp num. Was on duty + not enough courage( I admit it).=(
2) Went to accompany Hobart and E Jiat who fooled around at PGCHS's stall. Now i am grouped as "disturber" too. =(
3) Did not see and know anything about that Bon Odori even though i tried to. =(
4) Wasted quite some time on producing files that were not so "sellable", should had produced only around 150. =(

Less Tuition = More free time

Hmm, 3 tuitions of mine are stopped temporarily, guess what? I've got more free time~~. Anyway, the exam is just around the corner, so it's almost the same, i have to use these "free time" to study. However, it's the YE sales on this Sat and Sun, the whole weekend would be eaten up. Bah, it's the last week already, so it doesn't matter much for me to sacrifice the last time for YE. And this coming exam is only 10%, haha, not so important compared to the 4th one.

Today, Mrs. Goh gave extra chemistry tuition for the 3 classes which are taught by Nalina ( don't wanna call her teacher coz i just don't respect her!). The class was great and now i agree with my friends that Mrs. Goh is one of the best teachers in CLHS. She have been teaching in CLHS for 29 years which means that at her 13th year in CLHS, then only we were born. Long Jye from 4SA4 who was free that afternoon joined us although he is not one of my class.

After the class, Bear, E-Jiat, Xien Yu and me went to YE room for production. Hobart discussed some marketing strategies with Xien Yu as the others are not clever and handsome enough to join the discussion. Me and Bear did some baking of BLITZ VOGUE a.k.a D.S.. Me and Bear fooled Keat Goat by hiding him away from the news that the form 5 block toilet has lots of shits and an shitted underwear. When he came back, scoldings started. Bear and him then went to the toilet wishing to take some photos to be uploaded to Bear's blog. Unfortunately, when they arrived there, the afternoon supervisor, Mr. Tan Seong Hee a.k.a Ah Hee was there and he removed the shitted underwear and cleaned the shits, how hardworking, ya? Keat Goat guessed that he needed to get the pay of cleaning the toilet as he can not give tuitions anymore, great joke.

Yeah~, it's thurs tmr and we will have PJK. Cheers~

Special Sat, Boring Sun and The Usual Mon.

SAT
It's saturday and i woke up at around 6.45, wow? Joined CES's one day trip coz it was a public holiday and the centers were down. Therefore, they organized a trip for fun~. I thought that the trip was a educating trip to some fishermen village or something like that yet it turned out to be a beach trip~. However, a beach trip was not so bad after all compared to other types of trips. What surprised me is that only 3 students from my center, the new Sungai Ara center joined the trip. This means that the other 30 students are from the main center in Penang, the Georgetown center. Anyway, it doesn't matter, coz i dun actually have friends in my center as it was new and i just started about a month ago. Reached the beach, the environment is nice and kinda not so polluted yet, probably it's becoz there is a Military Camp beside the beach. The whole day was just about some games and crazy teachers pulling and throwing students and consultants into the water. Honestly, out of about 20+ girls that i saw or met there, only 2 can "comfort" my eyes xD. Some problems arose and they delayed me from reaching home, which is from 8 to 9. About 10, i went to bed.

SUN
Sunday, a day that i have to attend english classes at the Sungai Ara CES center. My favourite teacher, Dany taught my class grammar, at least he made the class fun and not so boring. When it's conversation class, a new teacher came in, ahh.... Not so good for me. Slept again after lunch, even skipped the phonetics class, was lazy and tired. Kinda regret that i didnt get to know the 2 pretty girls in the beach trip. =( . Probably need more bravery and communication skills.

MON
Ha, monday, back to school again. Good thing is the periods on Mon are nice. 1 SJ, the teacher teaching my class is the best teacher so no worries, no boring SJ lessons anymore. 1 Maths, which Mr.Ch'ng used to teach Add Maths, just tons of homeworks, zzz. 2 Chemistry, Yay~ 2 free periods, teacher is absent, even if she is present, it's gonna be the same, free periods =D. After recess = 2 phys, lab day, experiment~, not much pressure from here. 1 BM, yet another friendly and nice teacher, although she was in bad mood, she still controlled herself not to burst. 2 BC, LOL, my favourite period, coz it's really "pressureless", especially on Mon, she usually gives us 2 periods to cut an article from the newspaper and give some comments and opinions. 1 Eng, oral session, reached only around 17 or 18 and i am 36, fooling around the whole period. After school, the usual YE production time. Bear had taught me the ways to produce the key chains. Due to lack of exp, the 1st batch was a total failure that will be rejected. Only Khay Min, Chuan Yean and me were there for production. Where are the others~~~

Brand New Friday

13/7, it's Friday. A new starting point in my Form 4 life, starting to advance and try to excel in ADD MATHS. I had changed my add maths tuition as the tuition center class was progressing too slow. The new tuition is still on friday, but the time had been changed to 3.00 to 5.00 which means I will have to rush to home once after school so that I can make it home before 3. Now the tuitor, he was my maths and science tuition teacher during Form 1 and 2. This is a one to two tuition, the teacher, James to Wei Jing and me. Hope that my add maths results can improve in the next exam.

Hmm, something special happened in my class, Bear brought his camera to school. He probably wanted to get some interesting photos for today's blog and yet he did. A malay old lady came into our class to search for someone who bought her stuff and she wanted to return him 3 ringgit. Teacher Chua was in the class and she didn't want to let her come in. However, she did come in afterall. The old lady couldn't find the guy and she described to us that he is fat, "round" like Wei Liang. Wei Liang was so lucky because he was sitting at the 1st row and the old lady thought that Wei Liang was that guy. Wei Liang was shocked and denied it, anyway he joked that if he take the old lady's 3 ringgit, he will not be able to sleep for 3 days. Teacher wanted the old lady to keep the 3 ringgit as she could not find the person who she owed him the 3 ringgit but the old lady said "Tak boleh, mana boleh macam ni?". How honest and clean, that gave her some respect from me. After a few minutes of arguing with the teacher, teacher Chua raised her white flag, the old lady had a strong "IMAN" and her own point of view.

It's biology, the most BORING lesson. Jun Han, the funniest guy I have ever met shifted his chair near to my place, it was his usual act when it's bio, he came to me for jokes and to sing songs. He is a good singer as i mentioned in my post. NobodyLoy is sitting in front of me. He was sitting at the most back of the class but now he had switched his place to the most front of the class and he seemed to be satisfied with the change because this forced him to pay attention during classes. So, sitting at the first row is not something bad. My results improved a lot since i sat at the 1st row this year and now NobodyLoy took over my place and i had to move back to the 2nd row. Back to the bio period, we talked and discussed about everything we could, from 4Sa2 to United States and so on. Tze Yang and Bing Shu joined us as they felt the boredom too. Jun Han was abit crazy today, he was always saying "Dry your mother"( translate to Hokkien). Loy was annoyed therefore he hit his head everytime he said that rude word. We were bored and Jun Han showed us the lyrics that he wrote. We all commented on the lyrics and tried to find some songs to sing the lyrics. Finally, we were able to find 2 songs to sing his lyrics and he was impressed. Besides, i felt that if he could make the lyrics "Ya Yun" then it will be nicer.

Besides, the number 1 boy in the class, Xien Yu had ordered me to think the uniqueness of the YE products during bio. I had to think that for him because if i don't i will not be able to see the sun again tomorrow. His fans will just have to spill their saliva on me then i will be dead.

Thats all, i guess.

12/7

It's Thursday, guess what? It's PJK for the 1st 2 periods~. It would be a fun morning because it's football week BUT the stupid assembly spoiled it all. In my school, the 4 periods before recess is 40 mins each, but it will be shortened to only 30 mins if there is an assembly. Besides, the assembly ate up more than 40 mins which means we had to stay in the hall even it was already PJK. At least, Wei Keen as the MC of the assembly talked quite fast, so we managed to save some of our PJK time.

I had nasi lemak as my breakfast during the recess, Shyue Kae bought it for me, because i was too lazy to go to the canteen and the food there sucks.

After recess, we had add maths. Mr. Ch'ng came in and seemed a little strange. I found out that another teacher came in and sat beside E-Jiat. Ha, so this was why Mr.Ch'ng was strange and nervous. He spoke english the whole period and taught gradient of tangent to a point of a curve, something like this, I guess. He also ordered Chua, who is the 1st in the class to solve a question on the white board to show that we students were paying attention to him and understood what he had taught. The usual him came back after the teacher went out of the class, LOL, spoke hokkien again and criticized the teacher too. However, he was correct because the teacher had borrowed calculator from E-Jiat yet he still made mistakes in calculating the scores or marks.

During physics and english, I had a "gossip" with NobodyLoy and Jun Han. We gave our own opinions on different topics and shared jokes. Jun Han who is brilliant in singing became our MUSIC-PLAYER, of course we enjoyed listening to him and we eventually joined him.

School was over but i had to stay back for YE activity. Chuan Yean and me went to take our pre-ordered lunch and we had it in the YE room as Zlik and E-Jiat had left school earlier. After we had filled our stomachs, it's time for us to go to Form6 block for the sales tutorial. We brought some completed products as we may need to use them later. The advisers of SeaGate had taught us about some useful sales technique and we decided to wear our school uniform during the Queensbay Mall sales.

After that session, we went back to the YE room for some production. About 5.30, my mom was there waiting and I went home.

SY LXXII comes from?

Ok, its my 1st post and i am going to post about my nick. If u had viewed my frenster profile, then i guess u had seen this mad equation.
My nick is SY LXXII and I "calculated" it out from my name, so it's not like others, get a nick whenever they like to. However, it is possible to "calculate" more than one number. =D

LXXII = 72 in roman numerals.
Here comes the crazy equations.
*Notice: Read at your own risk. I will not be responsible for any drops in your add maths and maths score.=P*

Tan Shih Yik
= SY (Tan hih ik)
= SY [Tan (8x9x8) (9x11)]
= SY [tan(8x9x8)(9x11)]
= SY (71.92)
= SY (72)
= SY (LXXII)
Therefore,
Tan Shih Yik = SY (LXXII)

This is just something for fun and to calculate one's very own unique number.
Hmm, I will give a free service for this, leave your names in the comments and I will try to "calculate" them.
