I am so tempted to be downstairs with my mum!! She is watching Spring Waltz and it's super enticing! But I can't watch it coz I have other things to do and besides, if I watch a bit here and there and know the story line, I wouldn't be interested to watch it from the beginning again...

Today has been a day of calls! (more below) Received a call from Bernice this morning and we had a chat even though I was sitting right in front of my supervisor. That's the thing about having a nice supervisor - you can just talk on the phone in front of her! And even chat with the other temp staff (aka Aifung) about school and other topics. She would just offer opinions or joke around with us! :)

And Adrian (a colour specialist) was like super free today! He kept walking around and chatting with us! He sat down with us before lunch and talked to us about working life and how a man should start a family and what kinda of life he wants his kids to be! And he sounds so much like my dad! (Nope...He aint old! He is only 28!) He wants his kids to take it slow and enjoy life instead of stressing out in this crazy world! My dad says that too! :) And he gave us his name card so that when we leave, we could still keep in touch for lunch and whatever nots, since NUS would be just a (maybe a long) bus ride away! Oh! And I want to go to his wedding too!! Wedding bells should be ringing anytime this year!! :)

Guess the working life aint that easy afterall...Lunch with 3 other permanent colleagues and hearing their conversation made me realise that's the real working world. It's not good playing the hardworking person style. Only those with brains would get their way to the top. But yet, it's not worth compromising character and moral values for the sake of moving up the heirachy...Well, that's the way it is.

After lunch, it was back to work...But with lots of laughter and fun! As usual, we have Aifung who was day dreaming...and then we talked about university degrees...And my supervisor had lots to offer. We concluded that getting a degree is just a stepping stone in the working world to get above and ahead of the others. If we don't get that degree, we would just have to prepare ourselves for a harder working life. But as long as we have the determination and the drive to find other alternatives, we would still have the same or better outcome. Just that university degree would be a faster route...In the end, you may not do whatever you studied in uni when you come out to work.

Adrian came to sit with us again and irritate us by looking for food. We were busy finding food for him to munch! But realised that whatever we took out were either "lao hong" or already expired. TOO BAD!! In the end, he went back to eating Chips Ahoy! (Aifung calls that baby food!)

The other sales people were going nuts about so many other things! That's the way my office is...they are so relaxed when they are in office coz they have been out the whole day. And they just crap about anything! After 430 pm...The place turns into a laughing room! :)

Went up to grandparents place for dinner and to tuition the boys... Darns...I only tuitioned the pri6 boy, coz he is the only one who is willing to let me tuition. The other 2 boys went home and his brother only wanted to play my phone. I gave up on him coz I know that once he says no means no. If he really wanted, he would have sat down with his things already. But might as well...I couldn't teach him Chinese coz I didn't know what his syllabus was and I had no time and energy to go and dig out his books. So, I just taught the pri 6 boy. I taught until I wanted to vomit blood. The boys were all having Chinese paper tmr! And all I had as a resource was an assessment book. I had a Chinese-English and vice versa dictionary. But I hate that kind coz I think the kid would be too reliant on it. And I had a student Chinese dictionary, which didn't have the words that the chinese assessment was testing!! I had no idea how to teach at all!! I couldn't teach in Chinese because he didn't understand much of that. And I didn't want to use English! How??!! How??!! Those tutoring Chinese! HELP!!

And so, I gave up after 10 questions of where they gave a term and find the right sentence. I just didn't know how to prepare for his paper tomorrow. Wells, I think I shall just stick to teaching Maths and hope that he did ok today. At least pass!!! The next countdown timer I would put is to the day where he takes his PSLE Maths!!

I came back, had a chat with 2 juniors on their concert planning...I think I gotta call Bernice tomorrow...

And then called Az! She, Shaz, SJ and myself are meeting for dinner tmr! After they end the soccer match between NJ and MJ! I can't go coz I have to work! All the best MJ soccer team!

After that, I went to bathe and was suppose to call Az back coz I told them we were going to have a conference call like 25 mins later...but I didn't call them till like an hour later. Hehe! Sorries! Kent Ridge girl called me to ask me when I could meet her to pay for the camp!! And then I called Angeline...And we had a long talk...since we hadn't talked since 2 days ago. We had much to talk about work and her work since she quit. Ah...I think I made the right decision to just stay on in Ricoh! :)

Alrights...I called into Az phone at 11pm! Di, Shaz, Az, and SJ were already on the line and were waiting for me. Well, we didn't have much to really talk about just crapping here and there. But 5 people on the line aint a really good way to chat. We couldn't hear much of each other. But still, it was great being on a conference with 5 people!! When was the last time I had that?! End of sec 4? >.<

Well, the conversation was rather censored...by Di and Shaz, coz they forbade SJ and I to talk about driving! But you know, it's so difficult! And I managed to book monday morning and cancel my afternoon auto lesson!! WOOTS~~ And I was so exhilarated over the phone which I think only SJ understands why! Haha! At least I get that lesson now and so that I can change my leave tmr! Woots!! :)

It's been another long post! :)
