FAMILY DAY

family day is today. with my class doing haunted hse, i expected busy busy round the clock and it did happen. to make my post bit more easier to read (as it will be long), i will split it to chapters like in a book.

Chapter 1: Unrecall Deja Vu
the day begin with me discovering that the entire maze me and sheng put up on the day before was rearranged to the side. obviously im pissed and also lost as i dont know what to do now. it was alvin idea so i didnt dare to go against whatever his idea and the fact that he was not around yet during that early times to debate with anyway. but he later came by and explained that he had to use some of the tables to heigthned the barriers. i was pissed but not mad as i understand. but me and adrienne had to just simply do our best in recreating the maze. the problem was that we dont remember how the maze goes. so we just made our way through. to make matters worst, i got only a few minutes as i have to be in the hall in a few minutes. we manage to finish the maze in bout 30 mins. it was better than before actually. i then did the other decorations just to pump up the modd but i didnt have the time to start the maze with my friends and left to the hall.

Chapter 2: Hall of Torture
me and michelle went to the hall. apparantely we were suppose to act as if we anticipated speeches from the upcoming vip selected as representative of our class. we were told to be there at 8am and we did but the vips arrive at 8.30am. 30 mins of total boredom. then three long speech begins. once done, mr jacob said, "it wasn't too long. it only takes 40 minutes." true enough that the entire opening was bout 40 mins but it ended at 9am and we reached the hall at 8am totalling up about 1 hour of time wasting. after the entire thing was over, i get out asap and change into my tshirt and shorts.

Chapter 3: Haunting Begin
i immediately help at the haunted hse as it was my shift and i was excited to help anyway. i was automatically station at the back door to greet those who finished the haunted hse. originally i was helped my min jet but he later left. leaving me all alone. i later then helped inside the haunted hse to assist them out in the dark. there i could see how the haunted hse goes. at the beginning there loads of crying and good comments. which i was pretty proud of my class.

Chapter 4: Short in Action
bout later in the morning, our ghosts got tired and one by one they left the hse making it insuffecient of helpers. the problem was that no one was following their shifts, at lest most of them were not. ppl like elaine chong and min wei were suppose to be in 2nd shift but they move to first shift so when first shift over, everyone in both 1st and 2nd shift was too tired to continue making no helpers in the hse. i had to find ppl and everyone just told me, "i just came out from the hse. im so damn tired alredy." or something like that. even the comments turned from good to bad despite having super long line. after a short rest, many people went back in which then i saw the problem again. they were repeating their error all over again, too many helpers in the hse all at once. i tried to call elaine and min wei out but i think they refuses.

Chapter 5: Sweat
as predicted, after awhile, everyone was too tired to continue helping in the haunted hse again and as predicted, no one was left to replace them (thats what i meant when i said too many helpers at once). the haunted hse according to alvin, not a single ghost is in the hse anymore. to make matter worst, everyone was telling me to find ppl for help. but the problem is, im stuck at the back door where despite the easiest job and boring-est, i cnt leave it unguarded. outsider cant help to peep inside and someone need to assist people out and retrieve the blindfolds and returned back to the front. the main pain was (physically), i had to squeeze through tight crowds and stretch my arms (which is now bruised) to hand the blindfolds to the counter again and again and again making me quite busy. and becos im from the outside, i cnt predicted when there will be people coming out so i had to be ready everytime. i was the only one there and i was just as good being split to half having so many directions to go. i know that when compared to the ghost, mine is an easy job but all i can conclude about being the final escorter is that is boring, unpredictable, painful and mostly a comment bored (did i mention that another bad quaility about my job is that i have to deal with all sorts of characters especially those who gives bad comment on d hse and i just smiled as if nothing happen)

anyways, bout 1pm, my mum called that she about to pik me up. i managed to pull alvin to replace me while i go see what i can do about the haunted hse before i leave to deal with the problem. sheng ling requested to stop the hse so i had to rush to the entrance and told her idea. after passing messages thru and fro i had to leave d. all i did was tell people to finish up the last lining batch and we stop the haunted hse. i left at about 1.45pm

Overall:
it wasnt that much fun compared to form 3 where i just help in the food stall the entire day (almost literally). it was easy and eveytime i managed to sell something, i will be happy. but this time, all i did was stay at the back and deal with bad comments which kept arousing starting from 12pm. i noe of all ppl, i had no rites to say much as i did one of the least but then again, is my blog and i have the right to expose my disatisfaction :)

but despite that, the haunted hse was a success, i think. we sort of closed down the haunted hse besides our's and i also noticed the haunted hse at the beginning of the row also closed down. only the dark maze by 3 gamma stands stronger thn ours. food stall was okey i guess. my dad's mee siam sold finish and so did the nasi lemak and nasi goreng if i am not mistaken.
