Yesterday (wednesday), I woke up just in time, which was 5 minutes before Rafi and Kinah came over in the morning >_<
We spent the morning reviewing the remixed song, spotting some mistakes and adding a few effect to the song. Around 10AM we went to Giant hunting our costume. We are not confirmed yet in making to the final, but we want to prepare just in case. If we don't make it, well, we can use the costume for our video parody XD
I was worrying the whole time going out with them because I don't have money at all.. maybe a few cents but certainly not enough for me to buy some food =S
We went to the Mall and squealed when we found a pink hooded half-jacket and pink pants at Ego Women. We can certainly use that for our "Gee" and "Oh" parody~~~ We just targeted the costume, we didn't book it or anything. I wanted to find some clothes at Tim Tim Collection but it was closed temporarily.. and on the glass window posted, "Sales girl wanted" so without further ado, I jotted down the company's phone number. I've always known the owner for 3 years now and we are quite close. Plus the stores ordered the clothes from Korea and having an advantage to speak korean makes me wants to greet costumers in korean and attract even more costumers to the store XD
I went to have a nap in the afternoon due to lack of sleep. Around 7PM, my dad said that he wants to take me to a gathering, Elken company and he stated that he wants me to learn business and work under him. I said, "Sure why not I give it a try."
He told me to dressed up formally, possibly wearing a red blouse, but I don't have a red blouse so I just wore a black one instead. After getting dressed mum complimented me, she said I look like one of those elegant business women >_<
The gathering starts at 8.00PM and ended up somewhere around 10PM. I know what a gathering is like, when it says, "ends at 10PM", I know it will end later than that, perhaps an hour later.
Upon arriving I was greeted by my dad's friends, a couple of successful business man dressed in white blouse with red tie and black blazer and pants. Really formal. The way he shook my hand was different and he said, "If you want to be in the company, be in the family." and I was greeted by a lot of people after then. The men wore the exact outfit as the man before and all the women were dressed in stunning red blouse and black pants, some wore skirt and some wore tudong as well. 90% of them are in their middle age, I'm the youngest member.
The community startled me, they are very different, the way they shake hands, the way the clap (the rhythm), the way they dressed and the way they talked. They always say, "Luarbiasa" which is "Astonishing". They greeted me "Good Morning" instead of "Good evening".. My first impression was of course, "Omg I think I'm in a cult!!!"
Yes I know silly though of me but then, every action they made has it own meaning, like saying "Good Morning" makes our brain alert of our surrounding, if we say, "Good Evening", our body and mind are processing the time when we are about to go to bed. The handshake does has it own meaning, first gesture is saying, "I am healthy", second gesture means, "You are healthy" and the last gesture seals it off with "Together we are both healthy.. or.. .. May God bless you always" Its complicated.. but is really awesome.
The gathering actually are preparing the trainees (like me), for upcoming challenges and they imported two millionaires from Malaysia to share their life as how they had become successful after joining Elken.
I can't say how we actually gain such big amounts of money but all I can say is, it is real. It is not a scam at all and after studying their marketing plan and techniques I am 110% convinced that I too can become a millionaire after graduating from here. Dad already received $400+ after working there for a week. The salary is not based on hours or month, but commissions. The more products we can sale, the higher our income. So if I managed to sell one product in a week, I will get around $450. Imagine if I can sell around 3 products a week?
Again I can't say much but studying there is really fun and I am determined to excell there. No no fees at all. The lesson goes on from 8.30PM untill 11PM where around 11PM all the Managers, senior managers and their downlines gathered for a meeting where I was welcome to gain experience by my dad's acquaintance.
My dad and I went home around 12PM and stopped by to buy nasi katok. We slept around 2AM and had to wake up 4 hours later. Dad has to go to work and I have dance rehearsal at Menglait.
As soon as I got home from my rehearsal around 12.30PM, I took a quick shower, had my lunch and fall into a deep sleep. Woke up at 6PM.. And now practicing piano skills because I have my class tomorrow and I haven't even do my homework.
