had our SIM-RMIT orientation on Thursday. only like a pathetic handful of 22 people from my course turned up. the theme was ZEROES 2 HEROES and my OG’s hero was Hercules. it was kinda ironic because our group had like only TWO guys which made us look like an all-girls team.
anyways, i realised this colour has been haunting me since poly year 1. the Sen-France shirt, the S&W shirt and all. it’s just so Ngee Ann. *sigh* can i have more colours to my wardrobe?
don’t i just look FAT!? *fumes* i seriously think they should change the angle they shoot the photos from. oh well, it’s going to be a month already but still, happy graduation! (:
honestly, i didn’t realise that last Friday was Friday the 13th until last night. i guess that was because nothing really unlucky happened to me hence it was just like any other normal day. *laughs* worked for half a day before i rushed down to SIM (yes, the school i’m still trying hard to love) for my BBMKT enrolment talk.
seriously, it was DAMN boring. but i’m really really glad that i had thea with me! cannot imagine having to hide in one corner of the LT alone.. anyways, our class is pretty big. probably because i’m not used to treating a whole lecture group (of roughly 150 peeps) as a CLASS. i wonder how long it’s going to take us to know each and every one of our classmates..
well, the talk ended at about 4pm (scheduled to be 5pm) because everyone was feeling so restless and there were a couple of them already leaving the LT for good. traveled to town after that.
enrolment in a week’s time, termination in 3 weeks’ time, commencement in a month’s time; am i looking forward? you bet! well, you see.. no matter how much i dread stepping into SIM, i really missed campus life so much that i can’t wait to start school.. but sadly, it’s going to mark the end of awaiting money-rolling-in pay days and spending chasing-serial-dramas weekends. (because i suppose i should have homework/revisions to do during weekends BUT you never know, i can always find time for that addictive hobby of mine! *grins*)
and hopefully by then, i can secure myself a good-paying part time job. you ask why? i’m a big girl now! and big girls shouldn’t be sitting about, sticking out hands, open their mouths, and wait for papa mama to feed them, should they? *LOL* but well, for that issue, i’ll be keeping my fingers crossed.. note the word: hopefully. *laughs*
after all, it still depends on how packed my schedule is going to be, how much time i can afford to work, and most importantly, will there even be a place that – i don’t mind working at – will hire me. imagine me doing the exact same actions i mentioned in the above paragraph! guess i’ll just become the contradicting laughing stock of everyone. tsktsk.. in any case, everything is still an enormous question mark right now. till then, we shall see how! (:
sometimes, if you don’t feel IN place, you’ve no motivation to continue at all. i’m really getting tired of all these responsibilities. it’s like, i’m starting to think i’m there for the sake of being there, not because i want to be there. do you see how pointless it is? i wish i could just let go & heck it all but i don’t want to be labeled “irresponsible”. and then again, i feel that there are others more suitable for this appointment, this position, this place i’m trying hard to fit into..
Graduation was a blast! we are finally truly certified poly graduates cum diploma holders now! *waves the scroll & grins proudly* the ceremony was pretty formal; coupled with the school’s splendid giant-sized convention centre, big big stage and long red carpet, it was like some kind of award ceremony you see on television..
oh well, the after dark programme was phuture with my girls plus yong beng. i think the place was 70% flooded with NP people, mostly our BA graduands. initially planned to clubhop since it was ladies night but, stayed there all the way till closing as staying there was enough to keep us high. in any case, won’t have chance to do this often so yup, enjoyed the time there anyways.
right, this says it all. if you still don’t know, the above is for NUS application. *smiles* the letter should arrive pretty soon i guess. sometimes i can’t help wondering if it’ll make a difference if i’d put FASS as my first choice instead. in any case, i’ll most probably try again next year. it still depends on the last letter that has yet to arrive..
initially wanted to get away from home for some retail therapy. however, didn’t manage to find any shopping mate. so yea, rotted at home the whole day until now. i wouldn’t say it is a very meaningful stay-home-day but at least, i did a few things.
it’s about a week more till the Graduation ceremony. been looking forward to it since donkey years ago but somehow as it draws nearer, i’m feeling the opposite.
anyways, collected the attire last week with my girls and my boy. intended to go to OurSpace@72 to chill since i’ve never been there before. unfortunately, that particular place never seems to be on good terms with me; it was closed for some noobie event for the secondary school kids. *curses*
oh, did i mention? i don’t know about the other two polytechnics but our graduation attire is so much cheaper than TP and SP’s. i’m not too sure why because i don’t think the school compromised the attire’s material. although i haven’t seen the others’, by looking at our attire alone, i’m already pretty sure that the quality of our attires won’t be inferior to theirs in any way. hmm, thinking about it.. could this be where part of our very-expensive miscellaneous fees went to? *wonders*
headed down to SIM after work. as you can see, i didn’t even have to queue. i’m glad i chose the right day to go. anyways, it’s my only back-up plan so far. did as everyone told me: treat it as a lottery. even if it’s a hopeless, meaningless bet, at least i tried.. *laughs*
been pretty busy at work; articles after articles. didn’t even have time for MSN, let alone any time for books. now it seems like i’m going to need some motivation over here. hahah. anyways, happy birthday couz! (:
