 Yesterday I had a one-off job at the Cruise Ship Centre. It paid $15 for the whole day (8-6pm, lunch included) so I was game for it, and having nothing better to do. All I had to do was mind the wares, which in my case was a table of jewelry and a stack of genuine fake perfume. It was tiring work but interesting.

The bulk of customers yesterday German tourists. The cruise ship BREMEN docked at about 9am. So many old people disembarked! ^__^ The old men most had huge beer bellies, they reminded me of bearded bears though some are really lanky, like ents ^^; The old ladies were very friendly and their English was so lovely. I love accented English XD Two of the ladies I spoke with told me how much they love the tropical weather, and I replied that I'd swap places with them because I hate the weather and they laughed XD; The rest of the customers were men from an Indian naval ship that was also docked at Muara Port.

Today was a weird day, suffice to say. I felt weird the whole day, like a whole cloud of weirdness had been hanging over me. Even while I'm typing this sentence, I feel weird. I'm not sure from whether this weirdness came from within me or my surroundings. Eh, weird.

Had blue cheese with buttered mushrooms earlier this afternoon, along with a mocktail I concocted out of lime, cucumber cubes, soda water and a sprig of mint. Both felt oddly out of place and delicious. Blue cheese stank both the dry and wet kitchens, as well as the dining area, heh.

Oh yes, another thing. The night before yesterday, I had an impromptu haircut. No photos, because it was only a trim, but when I got back I had a box of hair colourant with me and did the job. I was going for dark purple, but my hair just turned really black. Mum loves it though, since it's now a 'normal' colour. OMG, this'll be a chance to listen to Cradle of Filth and turn Goth! :DD
