Blessed saturday

Dear diary..
today was another great blessed day .Honestly God has been so good to be these few days. after the valleys of last week, everything seems to be going uphill le.
talking about the little blessings of everyday ..today theres a few more
after work at subway, i was really really tired. Its mothers day tmr so alot of people were at carousel shopping . So we had alot alot of customers. I was doing the breads which means i am the first person in line to ask the person a series of questions
1) how may i help you ? (they will go on, think as long as they like, ask qns)
2) what kind of bread would you like? ( alot of time they will blah everything they want including the salads without mentioning the most impt thing which is the bread they want)
3) what do you want in it ? ( as in meat)
4) toasted or fresh ( i always have to 'scream' this question coz they always cant hear it ..or maybe the way i say it ...i realised today when i kinda shouted , alot understood unlike other days. if toasted the meat can go on the bread directly , if fresh the meat must go into microwave.
5) what kind of cheese would u like ( 4 kinds to choose from , tell them if they dunno, some just say yes. so i just put cheddar means they have not preference bahzzz)
6) proceed to tell them my colleague will do the salads for them .
hence being the bread person is the busiest toughest part to play while working.
i had a dry throat and cant even squat down from my position to drink water for 3 straight hrs. yess there were 3 straight hrs of customers. and yes 3 straight hrs i asked every single person the above questions. DUn forget, each customer has his or her funny personalities...grouchy , say everything so fast thinking i can remember while stil cutting up the bread, those who love to talk and explain why they choose this and that, those who so busy chatting w their friends tt i wanna tel them to go chat and come back later and let me serve the 'serious' customers.haha..

After this tiring work , i went to do some window shopping groggily and then went to do groceries. by the time i got to groceries, i think i felt so groggy man...it was almost 5 , hence almost closing time and all the registers were flooded with long lines and trolleys literally flooded w groceries...then a BLESSING ! I was in line in register 6 . then a lady at line 7 who had so so so much groceries ( like 5 super long loaves of bread, a few 1 kgs packs of frozen food , lots of junk food etc etc) looked at me and said that i can go ahead of her! There were other people in line 6 with me who had not much food but she looked at me and told me to go before her in line 7 since she got so much and i had little to pay for. She looked at me and not the others who were all within sight. Wah god is so good. Subsequently after paying, i walked briskly as it was almost time for the last bus ! and thank God i made it in 1 min before the bus came. If the lady had not let me go ahead of her in a different line, i wld never have made it for that bus ! God is so good...

i had such a good time tonight..went out with a few friends for jap dinner and bubble tea with card game. and the thing is, the outing wasnt planned beforehand. the game was so fun ...feel so good..relaxed...though i was actually so tired..God turned things around for good...
