Went to Bedok Reservoir for part time again during the weekends...
This time round, was Wakeboard World cup 2007, part of WaterFest oso... Supported by RipCurl... Got alot of internationally competitors...
This time, i went with Chin Pern, Kiat, Rachel (Lan Eng's daughter)... Reported to work at 9am... Supposed to meet them at Sengkang at 815am, but i was late.. Meet them at IMH busstop at 830am..
Weather was very hot on Sat... Again, i was at the free Banana boat rides booth...Signing ppl up for the rides... With the same group of lifeguards as last time... Don, ToonFung and the guys. There was another lifeguard who was 29yr old pervert whom they called him 'Techno Tikopek', who asked for my number! OMG! So disgusting...
Ppl came as early as 10am, as soon as we r open... As usual, there were ppl who went for the free rides a few times... But then again, i oso went for it alot of times...haha.... There were not many ppl who came on Sat... Only morning abit busy with ppls comin in one by one, so still quite ok for us to handle...but then for the whole afternoon, no one came lor... Was very quiet... Only ppl staying opp came lor... When it was almost time for us to knock off at ard 430pm, then ppl started to come in and getting crowded..
But we managed to clear the ppl by 530pm... Rachel and i went for the ride twice... Once did not capsized, cos got a small boy and auntie... Then Rachel say it was fun, she wan try with capsize.. So we went again lor... Capsized twice...
She din bring clothes... So Nick & i sent her back to her grandma hse after tat lor...
The next day, meet up with LCP & Rachel at SengKang MRT... Went for breakfast then report for work at 9am... Dark clouds were gathering when we reached... Ah Huat was telling us, they put garlic and chilli to stop rain from comin.. Something like a 'chant'...
The person-in-charge of our pay, "B" (dunnoe wat B) and the other gal, they were driving the buggy, then LCP ask her to tong bang us to our booth cos the box of barang is heavy... So we took the buggy, on the way they were reali placing sticks of garlic and chilli at almost all the booths... i asked her if it works anot, then she answered so yaya-papaya "didnt it worked yesterday?"
So when we reached at booth, we sat there, cos no one yet... Looks like wan to rain liao. So we jus sat there chit-chat with the lifeguards.., Then all of sudden, the wind became very strong and blew the tents away like as if there was a tornado... Luckily our reflexs were fast, held on to the tents and we jus stand there hold on to the tents...haha...so funny... Don was standing at the other tents alone, in the end, the tents were blew off, cos he could only hold onto one side....
Then heavy rain for abt 1 hr plus... Poor Chin Pern and Kiat came and help to pull up the tents, were drenched, in the end, they could only came to take shelter cos the rain was simply too heavy... After the rain became smaller, they went to pull up the tents with another 2 other guys...
The rest of the lifeguards were there playing cards since it was drizzling and cant start any activities in the water yet... Then after that, our IC, Seth told us to get ready. And there were ppl who came in umbrellas who came and register for the ride... Rachel still told them they might get wet for the ride... Lol..
It was getting realli hot in the afternoon... Hot until we could use mineral water to fill in the water guns to put water on ourselves...
As usual, its getting crowded when its almost time to knock off... Again, Rachel and me waited for our turn to take the banana boat again... This time we took boat ride with Toon Fung... Saw ppl capsized.. So fun... haha... A group of angmos with children, capsized 3times... haha... Later we went on for another round, this time with some of the staff... Saw them capsized twice... Luckily one of their fren only watch but din take the ride, cos she dun wan get wet...
After their turns, they wanted to go for another round, so me and rachel joined them.. Guess what?? We capszied 5 times!!! In the end, we haf to swim back to the shore ourselves cos its quite near...
After that, we quickly went to change and go 'fall-in' to get our pay... Waited for the 'B' to give us our pay, but she was somewer watchin the Wakeboard finals... Wasting our time!!
In the end, me and Rachel din wait to get our pay. Her uncle, Randy, said he will pass it to Chin Pern lor... So we din wait till the whole thing ends... Cos Nick was oredi waiting for me liao and Rachel is meeting the lifeguards for dinner and they were oredi waiting for her liao...
Was fun... Hope to go for events again!!!
