'this is my performance paradigm: that i would project before you today my willing capitulation to your gazing adulation, while we meet in the garden of cyber surveillance, so that we can enter into fruitful relationship with something and someone totally alterior. unfortunately for you, this space is really all just about me; so i hope you would fare well in my tyrannical space, which is also a generalized reportraiture of everything me in word, image, deed and passage.'
-- ripped off from my fren's webbie but i guess it kind of says it all.
(n y cant i write like her?)
3rd sunday selling drinks in bishan park n yet, productivity is still low.
on average, each person is only making a profit of s5 per hr.
if only, im able to select my team.
s15 will b the bare min made.
y, oh tell me y,
r the pple in my team so afraid to approach strangers to ask them to buy drinks from us? even if its for a gd cause?
its so simple.
'hi! we r a bunch of students from nus n we r going to india this june to build a school to teach the little kids english. we r planning to raise 5k by selling drinks at $1 each. that means we have to sell at least 5000 drinks, so can u pls help us out by buying a drink? we have mineral water, coke, 100 plus, green tea, coke n crysanthenum.'
thats all they need to say.
n more often than not, pple do buy our drinks.
(as long as we r sincere, we dont even need to b pretty.)
but no, my teammates go
'want to buy a drink? $1 only'
(my team has yet to learn that we r selling MORE than just a drink.)
to make matters worse, today, a 'kind hearted man' approached us n told us that the neighbouring vendors r displeased w our drinks campaign (which meant that we were actually 'stealing' enough customers last sunday to make them sit up) n that they have informed the park wardens. in order to 'hide' from the wardens, we had to give up our v 'profitable' t-junction spot.
i need to come up w another game plan.
i think i shall become a mobile drinks seller.
(i love playing hide n seek w park wardens.)
--
next wk, if i dont sell 5 boxes of water, 5 cartons of 100 plus, 1 carton each of green tea, chysanthenum, ice lemon tea n coke, within 4 hrs in bishan park, can someone pls chop my head off?
