** COUNTDOWN **
-> 6 days until Graduation
-> 20 days until NS enlistment

work at Yes has been normal.. the atmosphere there is not stresfull..
people there mostly helpful and OK..

received my pay on 6th May, but dunno why, can't find anything to buy at all..dunno hoiw to spend it..dun feel like spedning it..
.. and started to wonder why do i need money at tis time?
what shld i do with my money?
what shld i spend it on?

just thought of something to buy- - maybe a duffle bag..

recently started to re-play red alert 2: Yuri's revenge..almost forgot how to play, how to build units, control them, etc..got crushed by an easy enemy...

but soon found back my bearings...

quite fun anyway..

tinking of creating a few maps using the map editor..


animes...
still stuck on Nodame Cantabile...can't find the commitment to finish it, esp. it only have round 24 episodes i tink..hav to finish it quickly before enlistment..

received rejection letterfrom a certain uni a few days back...well shld hav known better, with these kind of results..its common sense..

maybe i would hav to resort to SMU / NU /SIm or PSB academy after NS, depends..


was following 學警狙擊 on TV. every night , 9pm...finishing soon..last few episodes..

i do not trust horoscopes completely, but am interested in them, thus i found myself turing to the horoscope page in My Paper every time i got hold of it, and reading what's in my horoscope..

graduating in six days' time..how do i feel?

"well, i felt that, time flies.. and its been thre years in the blink of an eye.
a lot of things have hapened during these three years, but i found that my memories in Singapore Polytechnic are not the most memorable one, per se.."

My current work?

"..Working at Yes brings back some memories of the time i worked as a .. for ego , i think,, when we had to go all over singapore to .. arrange the goods in NTUC, Fariprice, Cold storage, etc.. , and the people i met there, the people i worked with, as well as some ..incidents, i shld say, or .. "interactions" with my then supervisor(s), haz...its quite fun, but really tiring...but .. the .. experience was.. good?.. haz.."

"however, working at Yes shld be , in my own view, more...flexible and less stressful, the amosphee there is quite relaxed, half-day,.. people there also kind and helpful.."

NS?
" I feel.. both nervous and excited while awaiting enlistment. Nervous because this is (of course) my first time going to NS... excited because i finally have a real part to play in protecting my country, or learning to protect it.."

"I do hope that all goes well in Tekong..i can meet some friends there whom i can "connect" with.. learn some new things.. esp. maybe shoting skills? .. just a silly dream.. hope that i might bea marksman or sometihng like tt..lol haz...know it'll never happen.."

til next time then
sin=gning out,
