ulu pork v2.0

2007~

1 week after my last paper (human geog), i found a job at aljunied which is super near my dad's workplace so i get to long-bang his car to the office everyday. the office is pretty slack, just that there are some irritaing people.. and a few teeko ones. work there for 3 months, get to know more about shipping, dispatch of goods and stock taking.

rested for a month after that, then under xiu's recommendation i went to uob for another 3 months. work was never ending, i almost went blind cuz i have to photocopy everyday. if not for xiu, i will quit very fast i think. hahahhaa. there are some crazy colleagues there who are pretty nice too, but got generation gap for some. hahahas.

the worst part of my life was during may to july, when i am eagerly anticipating for universities acceptance letters everyday. but to my greatest disappointment, i got 3 identical rejection letters from ntu and nus. i was granted an interview by fass, but i am not sure if i screwed it up myself or fass don't have the intention to grant me a place and giving me the interview is just to 'answer' to my email to the dean. i was at the lowest point of my life.

i went sim unwillingly, hoping that i can adjust and like the place. however, i never felt so slack and hopeless in my entire life because i never bother listen to lectures, i did not panic when i do badly for my assignments, i skipped many many lectures, i sleep till 3pm or sometimes 5pm.. that's an indication of how screwed my life it. some people might think i am wasting my life away, but if you were my situation what wil you do?

i thought i will be strong enough to overcome all the difficulties, but i am unable to answer to myself for the state i'm in. my pride has been hit so badly. hais. i'm a confident person i feel. i experienced some hiccups during my 2 years at jc but they are not as great compared to the reality that i cannot make it to local universities.

but i've given myself up to 2007 to slack for all i want. after my sister's wedding, i'm going to study and revise my work. but i'm still going to apply for a place at local universities and if i get a place there, i'm going to WORK HARD cuz to me, this chance is not easy to come by and i promise to treasure it even more, alot alot more.

erm, the amount of visits to the hospitals and clinics are probably more than my entire life. i went to eye specialist, skin specialist, i had such a high fever........ boo. those were bad experiences. i hate hospitals. so i'm drinking more water than ever now.

however, not everything is sad in 2007 although there are probably only 30% happiness. hahahhaa. i had love, i made good friends like huiqing, my relationship improved tremendously with xiu, treasure my friends and buddies from secondary school even more. not forgetting, my 2 overseas trips after 3 years and taking SQ both times! hahahaha.. so mountain tortoise.

and, i started my driving lessons like finally! hahahaha... even though my basic theory test preparation was done quite last minute, i managed to scrap through. went for my first drivng lesson today and omg it is fun! it was a little scary at first, but once i roughly know what to expect, everything's not that scary anymore. hopefully it wont be long before i obtain my license!

for 2008, i hope that..

1. i can get a driving license by march
2. get into local university
3. improve my temper
4. pamper myself more
5. do more volunteer work
6. write a diary like what i do during j1
7. forget those people who i should long ago

10. less mood swings
11. eat healthily
12. drink more water
