Pulp Fiction



Lets twist it!!
Pulp fiction .. A hapzard montage series of stories. Great film!
Time for some blog catch up..

After dinner, we decided to explore the nearby Alexandra Arches, Henderson Waves and Forest Walk.. Do a bit of research for 'next time... for our future halves' Wah. its a damn long walk lah

Time really flies.. Its been 2 weeks after recess week.. and i'm finally done with my quizzes.. Now i'm left with 3 more assignments - my lab report, my 3001 Control assignment and 3011 Wheelchair project.. and looking at my calendar.. its only another 5 more weeks to exams! Die.
No time, no time man.. anyway, these was what that happened over the last 4 weeks...

Recess Week

I learned that Ella, ella, ella eh eh does not qualify as a rhyme to Umbrella. Thanks Yekai.. hahahaha (Cinderella, Zebra and nutella do though...)

Recess week totally sucks. We had our annual dragonboat initiation for the juniors.. then had a 'maaa bo' night. Had quite a fun time playing those card games during the drinking session. But.. after that night, i have to call in sick for that week's leg of the SDBA Masters' Series.. I developed a bad case of throat infection and started to have a bad sore throat. Besides that, i also started to have splitting headaches and a blocked nose... sian.

So.
I went to see the doctors. I didnt go to the medical centre in school though. Went to the Acumed at Boon Lay Mrt.. got my medicine... and.. my condition worsened instead. I don't know why, but i started to vomit and develop gastric flu from taking the medicine and i had no choice but to return home to consult my family doctor for a second round of checks. sian.
All in all, i spend most of my recess week sleeping and rest.. losing lots of time to study and head out with my friends in that one week of study break. sucks. The biggest let down was missing the rollerblade outing with my Db friends. I would have enjoyed myself out there man.. was looking forward to it for a while since I don't really have the time to go out often and do something fun.. I'm always stuck in school doing some homework or having training.

Elmer's Birthday

Walking through the Telok Blangah Hill, Forest Walk from Alexandra Arches to Hendenson waves is nice until you remember that some psycho dumped a lil gal's body on that hill.. urgh.

Star of the Night, Crabs!

My study buddy and good friend, Elmer's birthday fell on the Monday of the recess week.. despite not feeling very well.. i still went out to celebrate with him though since birthdays only come once for everyone. My camera died halfway so i didn't manage to get good pixs of my adventure that night.

Thanks to Wen hui, we were able to drive in his dad's car and we went to Pasir Panjang's Food Centre to have some cheap seafood... (well not exactly cheap arh... but good enough).. Besides the usual fanfare, we also had some black pepper crab.. shiok man. haha.

Think we covered 5km or something from the Arch to the Henderson Waves through the Forest tree top trail.. i wonder how do they actually build the Waves even since its suspended several meters high up. Anyway, its quite a majestic structure as it really resembled waves.

Overall, i was quite happy that night since i satisfied as i finally got to visit the bridges after reading about them on newspapers every now and then.. Along the way, we also passed by people having 'fun' in their cars

Interview

it might be a blessing in disguise

Result: I don't think i will get it. or any other exxonmobil project.. Although the actual results will be out in december, but my friend already gotten the acceptance email into their program..

My interview didn't go well at all. I guess i focused on the wrong stuff to prepare and i don't think i answered the questions well enough and left the wrong impression on the interviewers. Oh well.. I think its a good experience overall anyway. Thanks to those that helped me.

all this might be a blessing in disguise..

At the interview, the interviewers said that we may be required to stay on for 7 days a week instead of the initially required 6. Siao eh. liddat no life le, can't go training .. dats it. I'm both happy and sad. Happy that i most prob will have an easier job and go back school for training but sad that i can't get into this big company which can be a plus for me when i head out to work in 2 year's time, seeing that my grades aren't anywhere good.

Hope i can get CAAS now.. my 2nd choice. I think it would be fun there. haha. i think i will take pictures at the airport in my free time there. hah.

well.. thats all the updates for now. be right back .
