My very last holiday!!!
There goes the last sch holiday of my entire life! *sigh* Although it hasn't been much of a break cos I have soooo much work on hand, theoretically it's still my mid-term break lor. This marks the end of September too. So sad, how time really flies... I wish time could slow down from this moment onwards. Haha...And, Happy Birthday to Kok Hong! Said he noticed a trend: every year I'm always the first to sms him when the clock strikes 12am. Haa... Of cos lah. I got xin one ok? Enjoyed the times during poly...
Kinda tired of the question ppl ask me these days. "Why aren't you out on a Fri/Sat nite?" or "What the hell are you doing at home on a Fri/Sat nite?" Juz now went dinner with Keith, he also doesn't believe that I got no plan for the night lor. Come on, peeps. I have learnt to be independent and able to do many things by myself. Dun ask me anymore, pls. Yup, Mango is now a homely gal :)
P/S: Someone cheated lor! Not going to tell U alr :p (Next time got chance then I tell U bah). Someone none other than the person whom I juz added his link on the left column (So coincidental that his name is very similar to Kok Hong. Lol...). Check out his blog!

JP Morgan
Attended the JP Morgan Career fair yest. An eye-opener for me (and as Jason kept stressing it's the first career talk I went for lah). Speech, buffet dinner and mingling with the managers. Jason also said studies is like part-time for me instead of full-time -_- Okok I know I have been really heck-care this sem. Good thing I'm not going for honors. Heart is cfm not there anymore. But I'm not exactly looking fwd to graduation too. Fear of job-hunting *sigh*Met Ivan and Yufen after the talk. Ivan needed me to fill in some form - for the AXS job rem? Yeah I got tat job alr. Next Wed training. Anyway, Yufen and I went to the Coffee Club after that.
She's happy with her cheese cake! There's another reason why she's extremely happy lah. She got her new camera!
Headed to Zouk after that. Stupid Steff pang seh again. Dunno how many times liao lor... Grrr...
Packed as usual...

Modification
Know what this means? I have no exam at all this entire semester! Wahaha... Is this a good or bad thing though? I dunno...
Projects have been piling up recently. Although it's my mid-term break next week, I still need to go bk sch on many days, even Sunday! Sianzzz... There goes my weekend...
I have been feeling rather motivated recently. Went for a run yest and actually swam today after my project discussion. First time I swam in 6 years lor! Only managed to swim 4 lapses. Haha... Oh and I have signed up for JP Morgan as well as Fidelity Career talks.

Busy, busy, busy
It had been a hectic past week.
*Pics frm Paula*
Was at Zouk last Wed. I'm surprised my legs didn't give way prancing around in that pair of boots despite running in the evening. Saw the cutest guy ever in clubs! He offered me some heineken and we barely started talking then Josh said wanna go home liao -_- I think his name was Alson or something (can't really rem alr).
Went for an interview at AXS (part-time only lah). If all goes well, U might hear me on the phone next time U encounter some problem at the machine. Lol...
Dropped by the Natas fair on Sat. Queue to buy admission tics was super long. Luckily we got frenz at the front of the queue to help us buy. It was a waste of time though. We have decided to go on "Free & Easy". It's only the tour packages with agencies that are cheap. For "Free & Easy", it was rather expensive so we thought might as well book online. After that, we went Bugis for dinner.
He simply loves Jap food. Woo... I'm addicted to salmon! I had this Salmon Don (pic above). And we ordered a side dish of salmon sushi too.
Reminising at the canal at nite with Keith & Ben & Jerry. Haha... Think the canal has become my 2nd home. Ice-cream can make a person feels so much better instantaneously. Wrong flavor for him though. He hates vanilla while I love it to death. Haha... Anyway, dun think so much lah. Juz settle ur matter first bah...
Subsequently, stayed home to study the whole of Sunday. Got 2 tests - Biz Policy and Universe.
There are a couple of things which crack me up recently. Something that Ferdinand said and Jeremy's gf calling me.
1) Ferd said "Dun ever fall for me". I had to open my eyes wide to read that twice. Wahaha... So funny. I dunno watever gave U tat idea, dude. But I dun have the slightest interest. I only hope it's not the other way round. Lol... Kidding lah.
2) Jer's gf called me on Sun nite. Apparently, she stumbled upon his msn chat logs. Nothing much to clarify, I told her. It's so obvious from the logs who started the whole damn conversation. I didn't even lead Jer on. A pity I dun save logs otherwise I could show it here. He was juz raving and flirting non-stop. Mayb tat's even an understatement. First fatal mistake Jer did was to say that he has no gf. Then he went on to ask me go Taiwan with him instead. Which gf's blood wouldn't boil after seeing all that and more? Haha... Jer wanted me to justify that all we did was chatted on msn and didn't even meet at all. Yeah tat's true, but what ur gf is unhappy abt now is what u said ON MSN, asshole. Anyway, his gf told me that they are together for abt a year alr and this is not the first time she has caught him doing such stupid things alr. But Jer always acted innocent - always pushing blame to others. Sure, I'm not surprised. Guys usually do that when they are being caught. We ended up chatting like good frenz. I said to her "I'm sure U can tell by now what kind of person he is and decide whether it's worth it". (Oh btw, Jer was my ex earlier on last year. Or a rebound to be exact for someone who drove a Lancer. Tat's why I roughly noe what kind of person he is. I dumped him for less than month we were together.) Seriously, dumbass/liar/fucker, you juz dun understand the essence of being in a r/s. What's the point of saying regret now?
Yup, so now U know, I wouldn't even make the first move on a guy, let alone be a third party. Never! Do I even have to? No wonder frenz always say my life is like a drama. Haha... I dun court troubles but troubles always seem to find me. It's the
To him: It was a good talk last nite. Perfect closure for our close-to-5-year r/s. Not referring to tat type of BGR. Aiyah only he will understand what I'm talking abt bah.
Should I go for the interview on Sat???

Updates over the weekend
Fri usually meant fooling around during lunch hour with Jay and Josh and it's talk cock session!
Yes, it's this shirt again! Haha... And they still refuse to take pics together. Lol...
Went for Keith's company DnD in the evening.
Doesn't this pic above look like some old man's 60th birthday? Haa... Dun be fooled. This is the managing director of Nagase lah. It was the company's 6th anniversary. Sat at the same table with the 2 directors. Networking lor. Co is very small, everyone walked away happily with some prize from the lucky draw. Good tactic to keep employees contented... (Cake was frm NYDC and it's super delicious!)
Sat was spent catching up with Jac. Enjoyed our Girls' talk :) Waiting for ur lessons to end on the 6th week, gal, so we can go club...
Memories sia... Behind are Centennial and Millenia Towers where Jac & I first got to know each other...
I luv truffle cheese cake.Oh yeah, I have finished watching Heroes... Slept the whole of Sunday.
WHAT WAS I THINKING MAN???
I'm still pondering over what someone said to me last nite. Hmmm...

Job-hunting
Ok I'm getting worried. This matter has been on my mind 24/7 these days. This has happened before back in 2005. I'm at the crossroad once again. I seriously have no idea what kind of job I want. Back then, I had the easy way out by furthering my studies. But now, like what the book Josh had lent me on job-hunting says, I have ran out of things to graduate from alr. I know some of U are chiding me why I didn't wanna pursue Honors. For those who know me well, I like to do my best in whatever I do. If I can't achieve something that I really want, I rather not try at all (spare me the disappointment).I missed an interview on Tue. Yup, bo liao me went to apply for SIA again but decided not to go for the interview in the end. Somehow, the interest (or ambition as you may put it) is not as strong as the past alr. And I'm unsure of whether this is really what I want. Confusion once again *sigh* What's more, Josh's book says that the usual methods of resume and responding to employers' advertisments on the internet are ineffective. The book emphasizes on contacts and networks. I wish that I meet a VP each time I go club lor. Haha... Mayb worse come to worse, I should go bk HK to work? Lol...
Also, stop scolding me, Jason! It's not that I'm being bo chup. U juz can't see how anxious I am inside. I also wish to secure a job before I graduate. Finance sector is so big and broad. I haven't even narrow down to the department I wanna specialise in. My plan is to make up my mind by the end of this month and hopefully go for interviews in Oct. At least I dun aim to be a Tai-tai anymore. Haha... I have come to realise that I'm someone who needs constant motivation and satisfaction. I need a goal which will push me to higher levels. Many ppl envy my current life. So slack, with so much free time to do whatever I want. But I have grown sick of it already though it has only been a month. I juz can't stand being idle most of the time. Alright, enough of life and job alr. Arghh...
I'm so looking forward to the Taiwan trip at the end of the year...

Getting fatTER
Been drinking on Wed and Thur. Nope didn't lose my hp cover again. Haha... Fucking boring to take 3 modules only lei. There's only 1 exam this sem lor. Couldn't find a part-time job either. All the agencies that call me are offering 5-day week jobs which I can't commit to.
Supper. I'm seriously trying to watch my intake of food. Lol... When your best fren says U r fat, it gotta be true : ( Therefore, I only had like 2 bites of the above.
Booze. We have been pub-hopping from Kampong Bahru to Boat Quay on both nights cos some of the pubs close really early on weekdays at 1am. C & I were damn lucky to escape a road block. The police stopped us but did not ask us to stop by the side and got out of the car. Think both of us were holding our breath. I already told C that I got a hunch that there's a road block after the turn ahead (as some ppl noe my hunch is usually quite accurate). And if I didn't remember wrongly, I actually didn't buckle up (dun have the habit of putting the seat belt). Super super fortunate lah. The police juz shone the torch at the back seat and allowed us to proceed. Zai! Phew...
My fav - cheese cake. I tot it was only 1 piece lei. Came in the whole box of 6! Thanks, K :)
Juz got back from dinner+coffee. We had XO fish bee hoon at Holland V. It was really fantastic...
Alright, I'm gonna spend some quality time by myself on this Saturday nite. Perhaps be a couch potato, watch TV and do some reading. F says wanna meet later. See how bah~
