wootz... its a sweet goodbye to 2005, and welcoming 2006... time really do fly that fast... hmmm... lets see wad happened within this short 365 days... but first...

boring it was today... went down all the way to harbour front to collect the ticket... and i gt admitted into sentosa for free... wootz... the staff juz open the gate for me to walk pass... dun even need 1 buck bus trip, and 2 bucks admission... after tat slack at harbour front and juz slack... reached home and slacking continues... had curry chicken for dinner.. its a good thing to always cook on special occasion, esp during the chinese new year... after tat slack even more... den about 9 30, went to watch the news, study, and await for countdown... wheee~~~

year 2005 really past tat fast... to tell u the truth, i can even forgot hw i celebrated the coming of year 2005... why?? simple, coz i was busy working... all i remembered was on the 31, everyone ended their shift when store closes... haha... those doing A will wait till the rest finish... den had supper together... alfred, tadeo, mervin, and cant remember already... haha... and we short charge out last customer 15 cents... coz we wan to close the atrium.. haha...

was really down with work at the begining of the year... signed contract with robinsons... after atrium, was about 2 weeks of rest, before going to robinsons expo... helped vin and kc to enter robinsons the easy way... haha... during these 2 weeks, its RO... nw, the game had died in my life... stoped at lvl 97... nv getting the lvl 99 aura... haha... back into topic... expo was really a fun place it is... made lots and lots of new friends...

wan ling - my assistance cashier
dars - the cashier opposite me, who always like to compete with me, never winning...
joan, irene, kars - the 3 slacky packer, cracking our cashier pin...
qizhu - the blur queue controller...

of coz there are many other perm staff... but its hard to list them all down... and some other temp staff... who i lost contact with already...

so after robinsons expo, the hunger for jobs carried on.. so thks to alfred, he helped me job hopped from robinsons to john little... from cheryl to debbie.. haizzz... cheryl nw left robinsons liaoz... sad thing... all the best to her... so starting of john little expo... require us to do setup and tear down... though its like kinda alot work to do, they are always ahead of schedule... but, they are always behind their target...

after john little expo, went back to store sales... this time, its at the store... new environment... here, made some new friends.. one of the unforgetable one is terence... the sucky one... tats why i can never forget him... haha... it was hard to get everybody into the store... coz most of them are blacklisted coz the break many rules at expo... haiz... but i still managed to get them in...

working life had taught me mani things... customers are sometimes veri unreasonable... juz heck them and give them wad they wan, to ur own ability... yes, customer are always right... but they are not always reasonable... the more they demand, the more you dont wan to see them... and the best way is to give them wad they wan, and they'll get out of ur sight... and also, in service industry... even on public holidays or eves of public holiday, work still carry on... haizz... juz look at the bright side and enjoy ur job... heehee...

after john little, it was more or less enuff... nt tat the job is getting boring, but the SOP in JL is making me bored... haha... though they offered weekend, but didnt really take it... so left with about 1.5 - 2 mnths of enjoyment... these time, really slack... went out almost practically everyday... shopped, watch movie, celeb bds, chalet, stay over.. wadeva it is... name it, gt it... soonz, it time to get back to academic...

got into my first choice.. aerospace electronics... correct choice?? if u ask me, i'm still veri uncertain... is it aerospace electronics, or aeronautical engineering?? haha... but i'm still studying aerospace electronics... many of my friends were in the same poly... different course... handful went to other poly, or JCs... to summarise, main share-holder was SP... hahaz... before the start of sch, went for SPSU camp... nt a bad camp.. made more friends...

sch starts, and it was hard... for almost 6 mnths, didnt touch any school books.. and here i am... studying more about physics and maths... anyway, love these topics to the max... haha... was getting used to poly life... before u knew it, first MST was knocking on ur doorstep... took it lightly... small percentage, treat it as a first time try... if u ask me, i said i didnt do veri well... did get the top of the class, but its enuff to get a distinction come year end...

soonz, it was the time where we get on with our CCA... tried few CCA... dropped canoe and aviation club... haha... nw in SP-CYA... tat means weekly visit to the airport... nt a bad CCA... quite gd... but was hungry for aviation... so joined SYFC... the paper work, and all the medical test was long, but worth the wait... slowly, the class open up, and we get to know each other better... together, we try to fight this battle...

money was also a problem then... so it was all about working and studying at the same time... managed to do it for like 2 weeks... helped banagawan solo during the mooncake festival sales... imagine working while studying for exams.. hw bad can it be... before we knew it, semester test came... totally different experience from MST... anyway, did fairly well... shld be strong enuff to try for a distinction come year end...

october holiday finally came... spend the first week doing some volunteering fund raising for the south asia earthquake thingy... second week was more or less a rest week... den during the last 2 week, gt called up by robinsons to work... well worked for 2 weeks... den its back to sch again... really hw amazing time flies...

new smester... new modules... some modules sucks... while others was rather lame... haha... with new semester come new interest too... haha... magician club... started off with it... currently still under the learning stage... lolz.. was also working while studying during this first half of the semester... and soonz, its the 2 weeks break... mean for studying... but worked too much... haha... caught up with tutorials tat i was lagging behind too...

and finally, its goodbye to 2005... mani things had changed... some were bad changes.. while others are for the better... my former sch, jyss, was much of a living example of one for the worst... after my batch graduate... new principal came... and ever since she came... everything changes... pioneer batch of teachers all left.. mani transfer sch, while some retired... sad thing manz... from OM to DC to HOD to teachers and even administrator... haiz... nw even if i go back to sch, i dont even thing i can see a teacher whole once taught me... its like nt my sch anymore...


new year of coz comes with new resolution... heehee... welcoming this year with MST2... 5 papers, 2 weeks... gonna study hard hard... yea~~~ after tat, in feb, it will be the start of my SYFC... so its time to flyyyy... wheee~~ and also thinking of joining the civil defence thingy.. actually i'm veri interested... all they need is to giv me more info, and i'll tell them the answer... hohohoh~~ yea... tat shld be all... more as the year go by... heehee~~
