WCG 2006
So ppl in our course were to help out in the WCG 2006.. either as game marshalls or as part of the receptionist team.. so mi, meow n 2 oth gals from another class were in charge of internal ushering.. when the ushers outside guide the VIPs into the hall, the rest of the job is up to us.. meaning we haf to guide them to their seats.. so the seating was lyk, first 3 rows were for the VIPs.. next 3 rows were for pple from oth companies.. den the last 2 rows saes 'Free Seating'.. so when i went oput to ask the in charge wad does free seating means, she saes it's for the registered guests.. n nt for members of the public.. okie.. so we followed her instructions n did wad she told us.. everyone who was nt a registered guest, we had to tel him 'excuse mi sir/mdm, r u a registered guest? if u wish, can u kindly proceed to the guest registration booth outside the hall to register?' okie.. we told quite a no of ppl.. we dun really lyk the feeling of chasing ppl away to the booth.. but wad can we do? we were juz doing our job.. but basically, the ppl were rather co-operative.. until... this auntie sat down wif her daughter.. so i juz ask her the same qn.. but i translated my qn n tok to her in mandarin as soon as i realized she didnt understand wad i was tokin abt.. it's really ok tt she didnt understand wad i was tokin abt.. but the thing tt matters was... she was so rude n mean!!! my god!! i told her tt she had to register outside since she didnt have the blue lanyard(which was to be given to registered guests and i did ask her whether she had the lanyard and she said no..) n she told mi tt her son n daughter was in the competition n had lost.. but the thing is.. i noe ur son has registered.. but as a gamer.. nt a guest.. so i was trying to tel her tt she had to proceed to the booth outside to register 1st.. den cuz i didnt wan the whole conversation to affect the guest of honour's speech, n i felt tt she was adamant on sitting there without the registered guests's tag, i juz ask another lady who also belongs to the organization committee, to help ans any of the auntie's enquiries.. i cant rmb clearly abt diz part.. but i rmb tt i went out to ask the in-charge abt the free seating seats again.. den guess wad she told mi? it's okie.. juz let her sit.. since the ceremony has already started.. den i was lyk tinkin.. 'how come they can be so irresponsible as to tel us onli nw?' i mean.. they can juz tel us earlier.. den we would nt haf made so many ppl feel sian abt us 'chasin' them away already rite? i mean, any instructions juz let us noe.. do u possible expect tt we juz noe wad ur wan in mind? den when i went back, the auntie was asking meow to let mi noe wad the lady said.. so she told mi tt since the ceremony has started, juz let the public sit.. but the prob is, wad abt those registered guests? tink abt them.. wad if they come in n haf no seats at all? den the auntie was tellin mi wad, she already registered already.. (it's her son being registered as a gamer la come on..) n she said nw ask her sit, she also dun wanna sit already.. so? wad's the pnt in tellin mi diz? u dun wanna sit nw also ur prob.. den after quite awhile she said, 'already told u tt i had already registered.. u nv c properly.. nv c properly..' den she kept flinging the blue lanyard at mi.. nw den she had the blue lanyard.. so? eralier on when i ask her whether she had the lanyard, she said no.. so wad's the pnt of flinging it for mi to c nw? do brainless stuff for wad? she really pissed mi off so much tt when i ask her whether she wan to sit, she sae 'no.. nw ask mi to sit, i also dun wan to sit..' so okie lo.. dun wan to sit den also her prob.. den as she was rattling on, i juz turned ard and continued listening to the VIP's speech.. i mean, wad for listen to her? mouth is hers wad.. wadeva she wanna sae let her sae la.. n i dun tink i'm in the wrong.. we were juz doing wad we were told to do.. den after the whole thing, when we can go hm, mi n meow were tokin abt the whole thing.. we were sayin tt overall, it's quite a fun experience.. but.. thz to the auntie la.. n i felt so disgraced for her.. she still can complain to her son when her son was there.. but it's ok.. as i said, the mouth is hers.. so let her sae wadeva she wan la.. n mi n meow were discussing abt the seats.. actually they shouldnt have put 'free seating'.. we tink sth lyk 'registered guests' sound better as the public will be understanding enough to realize tt the seats were meant for the guests.. oth den tt, it's okie.. lunch was provided but we didnt go for it.. cuz by the time we left the place, it was juz 1.30.. n if we had to wait, we had to wait for another hr.. which was nt wad we really wan as we had to go back to sch for peer appraisal review.. n when we reached the sch, we juz went up to look for Mr Tan n did the peer appraisal forms.. i'm nt going to reveal much of wad he said.. but hopefully, things will turn out beta for our group!!! when there's a will, there's a way!! things will turn out juz fine!!! there's still the closing ceremony from 5-8 pm today.. hopefully things will be beta!! things will...
