Yup, Vivo City are having their usual fireworks and that makes it the third year I'm working at Vivo City now. I remember the first year during the Countdown on 31 December, everything at my ex-work place (Pacific Coffee Company) was really psyched up and on the ball. But when countdown was near approaching, we sort of lost our brains in the process:

Azahar: Yeah, new year coming. Everyone, go home. Now!

Pu Niao: Huh!? Happy and angry at the same time??

Azahar: HAPPY NEW YEAR!! GO HOME NOW!!

Pu Niao: ....


And as for this year, everyone at my current workplace is similarly hyped up as well, especially in my own department. My department supervisor was equally psyched up for the upcoming fireworks (happening at 9:15pm) until he felt totally crushed, no doubt thanks to my reminder:

Chay: Yeah! Fireworks, I want to watch. What shift am I in?

Pu Niao: Don't know wor... But am I working too?

Chay: Are you going to watch the fireworks too?

Pu Niao: Sort of, but mostly taking photos to put on my blog and share with my readers lor.

Chay: (upon checking schedule) Yeah! I'm working closing shift!!

Pu Niao: Er... That means you'll be working, so cannot watch any fireworks...

Chay: Huh!? @(&$@&$ (some choice swear words)

Pu Niao: .....

Chay: So where is the fireworks?

Pu Niao: Upstairs, at the amphitheatre

Chay: *^@$^@)$& (more choice swear words)

Pu Niao: Cannot watch, never mind. Can hear the fireworks, already good enough lar.

Chay: ..... (speechless moment due to the fact that he can't watch the fireworks)


Along comes Phoebe...

Phoebe: Eh? Got fireworks? I also want to watch!!

Pu Niao: What shift are you on??

Chay: ...*@&$@(&...

Phoebe: ....closing... (make a disappointed face)

Pu Niao: Never mind, listen to fireworks with Chay lah.

Phobe: Lucky you, work opening shift, can watch fireworks...

Pu Niao: Er... last year I think I was working closing wor...
