School has started for a week now and yet, I’ve got a hard time tuning back to the Study Mode. To get out of this poverty cycle that had been going on for 1.5 years. I took up a part time job. Actually, that part time job wasn’t a part time job. It has the workload of a full time job, with a title of “part time”. How nice.. but i seriously don’t mind. I just need to get more experience in marketing. It’s what i can learn out of the job, rather than how it will beef up my resume.

It’s quite an interesting job with a boring business model. Lots of restrictions, lots of concerns. This job gave me the chance to meet up with PR agencies, to understand their job scope and make me realize corp comms is not my cup of tea. Then, i get to meet up with the printers, to understand how difficult it is to print a pull up banner or even a simple brochure. Colour codes, water mark and how it must be identical to the one corporate designers had set. Lots of things to be learnt, and I’m still learning.

When learning how to perform well at work and learning the new concepts in school came together, it is hell. This is life, like what was mentioned in Evan Almighty, when you pray for knowledge, does the God give you the knowledge or the opportunity to be more knowledgeable?

I’m thankful for the opportunity to experience more about marketing as well as for making my life a more fulfilling one.

What doesn’t kill me, makes me stronger. =)

GoldFish!

Since the start of the school, I’m suffering from short term memory and in fact, it’s a serious one. I couldn’t remember what i wanted to say, or what i’ve done a minute ago. I guess my brain need some kind of maintenance.

well well! Here is a quick update for the past week.

- Class has started on Monday and I hope classes will be fun.
- Had been working right after my classes. Will be busy for the next month due to events and stuff. Even though work is busy and taxing, I could still cope with it. The most taxing part will be walking from SMU to Suntec city. It’s hell!

Alright, I’m tired. Time to take a deep breathe in and relax a little. Shall start working hard for the horrible International Econs. It really requires me to go thru those econs and financial news. It’s torturing yet i have to tell myself “I LOVE ECONS”. =_=”"

A new beginning…

Alright, I’ve changed my Chinese characters on my IC. The ICA was flooded with people, many of those are kids who were running around. As much as I adore kids, those kids there were so irritating when they running around, bumping into me over and over again. Grrr… I really wanted to carry them up and throw them into the rubbish bin.

I was really shocked by the crowd in ICA and was really worried that I might need to wait up to 2 hours. The customer personnel at the front counter told me that the people were mainly there to renew the passport photo. Thank god… I waited for 5 mins before I proceed to the counter to change the name, another 10 mins for them to “make” the IC. Well.. that’s the difference when you pay. My 60 bucks save me from the long waiting queue and in fact, it’s rather fast. On the other hand, those people who were there for renewal of passport photos will have to wait up to 2 hours. It’s CRAZY! I guess i will opt for the online service next time when I need to renew my passport.

A new beginning!!! I’m feeeeeling lucky! hahaha…

Luck is never my friend.

I dunno since when, luck had stopped treating me as a friend. My name is definitely not listed under the friends list of “Luck”. I know I can’t depend on luck, that’s why I’ve never never depend on my luck for schoolwork or exams. I’m lousiest in MCQ, i can’t depend on the 25% chance of getting correct, coz often or not, i will fall under the 75%. MCQs are nightmare for me when SMU prof are shrew enough to come up with 6 or even more choices for MCQs. Out of the 6 choices, one of them will be none of the above. I never never trust luck ever again after one faithful day.

Although i know that I’m not a lucky person, I have been trying hard to achieve what I want. I have to admit the fact that, there are still things that we need to depend on luck. I’m sick of being the unlucky person. Screw those illness and the many many things that have been pestering me.

My mum said someone told her that my life will be complicated and full of hurdles when they consulted this shifu to get me a name. The shifu did some calculations for my chinese name and gave my mother some choices. Ultimately, it’s my Chinese name that is important and yet I’ve got them wrong on my IC.

I’VE HAD ENOUGH OF THE BAD LUCK. I will try to make friend with Luck. The first step will be changing my IC. I shall do it TOMORROW. No more DELAY!!!!!!!

lazy Mode

After almost 4 months of internship, I’m finally able to adjust to the relaxed mode, or rather the lazy mode. I’m now officially “bed-ridden”. I can’t leave my bed alone for more than 2 hours each time, and my bed really put me to sleep. Exactly a week to school reopen and i seriously dread the day that mark the start of my cityhall adventure.

Well well welll… I’m really looking forward to my jaw operation. I can’t wait to get this thing over and done with. I’m not brave, I’m just impatient. I hate my teeth now as it simply gives me problems in pronouncing the words. After my operation and removal of my braces, perhaps i will consider going for the teeth whitening if, and only if, i’m feeling rich. haha..

lalallalalaa… I guess my insomnia will be here again once my school starts. The days when I could rest on my bed without worrying about the projects and schoolwork, will soon be gone.
How pathetic it is. I shall enjoy myself now!~

Happy Birthday Singapore!

Was really tiring this week as I was doing this fire-fighting for the past weeks. Trying hard to put out one fire after another to stop them from burning my ass.

Went for the comms service in one of the pri sch in bukit panjang. It brought back many memories and really remind me how time flies. Not long ago, my friends and I were sitting in the parade square singing the traditional singapore songs, such as “count on me singapore” and
“one people, one nation, one singapore”. Now, i dun even get to sing the national anthem. How many times have i sing the national anthem in the past year? I’m ashamed to say, not even once. It’s already amazing if i could remember the pledge. SHAME ON ME!

well.. I guesss I really need to reflect a little. No matter what, I’m proud to be a singaporean! Though life is stressful, but at least there are few natural disasters that strike us. let us look forward to a better singapore!

*I’m going bonkers. I’m sure it’s pretty obvious in this entry.

No Reason..

Hormones are definitely having their way in me. I’m feeling ridiculously moody and vulgar. I feel like cursing and swearing like nobody’s business.

Okie.. no matter how unhappy I am, i still need to get my work done. I need to get my work done…… grrrrr…

Wincing in Pain

Okie.. I’m sorry for starting this entry with a complaint. But, this is unbearable!!

I went for my braces appointment in the morning and had the braces tightened. A shitty routine that i’ve to go through every month just like menses cramp! Holy shit! Well, i opted for this route, NO TURNING BACK even if i wan to back out now. Either i bear with the pain or have these two ugly space between my teeth. Being a vainpot, i would rather bear with the pain. But that doesn’t take away my rights to complain.

I was trying my very best to bear with this pain for the whole day! It just getting from bad to worse. Now, i can’t even get to sleep as I can’t really bite together as that will trigger the pain sensation in the nerve. So, i left my mouth slight ajar! Who noes, it will cause my jaw to lock! shitty situation where i can’t make myself feel better and got to bear with the pain thru the night.

How i wish someone can juz knock me unconscious. I juz need some damn sleep before i start dozing off in front of my workstation tomorrow! Even after complainiing, the pain is stil there, i’m still suffering. Oh god, i really got this idea of knocking all my teeth out and align them straight, juz like how we did it for Lego. If you all got the idea of advising me to take painkillers, you can just burst the idea like a bubble. PAINKILLERS are USELESS. The pain juz stay there stubbornly. I’m so unhappy that i need to take some good food, but each mouthful of food will cause me more pain. Crappp… grrrrr.. I better get back to bed and start counting the meh-mehs.

How about counting hair, will that put me to sleep at a faster rate? *ponder*
