Freedom is priceless!!! DONE WITH SCHOOL! DONE WITH POLY!! NO MORE LECTURES, NO MORE TUTORIALS AND NO MORE PROJECT!! =D

I've waited so long for this moment...and it's such a sweet moment. Ahhhhhhhhh.

Guess what's my current job? I'm a relief teacher back at Balestier Hill! Taking over Ms Lim's Sec 3 Maths classes for the next 10 - 12 weeks. It isn't as easy as I thought it would be. The Normal Technical class 3T1 aren't as smart but they are quiet enough for me to teach them. But the Normal Acad class 3N2 are sooooooooo noisy! Half of them don't want to learn and the other half are trying to listen but it's so noisy. One of the boys really made me angry. He kept making silly noises and tried to irritate me by mimicking my words. One more time he does that I'm sending him out of my class.

But other than that, it's so fun to be a teacher. I get to teach people how to do things easier, faster and alot of the students learnt from their mistakes. I just marked their Common Test paper and the whole class failed. :( I guess there's alot more work for me to do if I want them to do better.

I'm starting to plan our 9th Monthsary celebration but unfortunately it has to be postponed a little. My family just told me that they're going to Cambodia during the March holidays and I have to go with them. I'm sorry baby. :( I'll be back on the 18th though, so I have to plan everything well!

Cheers to all those who have graduated Poly and good luck to those who are waiting for NS!

Didn't get to watch the match last night...I went into the website too late and it was all laggy and choked. ARGHHHH!! At least I got some sleep before school. After school me and Shem went down to Sim Lim Tower again. It's like we live there or something...lol. Anyway, nobody was selling what we wanted to buy so we headed home. I went to the industrial park near my place again to buy a last piece of plastic then walked home. Hot day today man...can feel the sun just shining down on me, trying to melt/burn everyone.

Took a short nap then Shem called me and showed me this job offer. Engineering job for ITE/Diploma holders. Do some soldering, some reports, some troubleshooting and the pay is $1.6k! We straight away sent our resumes to the email. There are actually 3 shifts we can choose from: 6.45am to 3.15pm, 2.45pm to 11.15pm (extra $10 allowance per day) and 10.45pm to 7.15am (extra $15 allowance). What do you think baby? Which shift seems to be th best? :)

We also applied for a job at Ikea a few days ago, it's basically assembling their furniture. The HR person called us today and told us it was $5/hr but the website ad stated that the salary was negotiable. We tried to negotiate for $7/hr but the guy was really stubborn saying he wasn't aware of any ad online. Shem got really pissed because it was way too low so we're applying for this engineering job.

After dinner was study time!! I'm learning more now at home than I did in class...hahaha. Weird huh? Did alot of studying for my ICONT and I'm getting more and more confident by the hour. Woooooooot!! Can't wait for exams to be over!

Hope you're having a great time over there baby! :) I miss you and I can't wait for you to get back...hehe. 8th month is almost upon us and I am so freaking happy with you. Enough said!

Love you, see you soon. :)

Woww..tiring day for me. Went to project room this morning to finish up my project report. Spent 2 hours editing and stuff before Zarinna told me that she already submitted the report...wa lau. Yesterday she promised me that she would clean up our work table and pack up our tool box but she delayed it yet again. Reason being that Koon Hua wasn't there to help her =.= .

Had a short lesson after that, quickly went through some past year exam papers before I headed home to take a nap. Woke up at around 6, studied for a bit then had dinner. Had Cod fish! So yummuy but after eating 4 or 5 pieces, the taste of the butter and oil was way too strong for me and I felt like vommitting...hahahaha.

Went back to studying until now! Gonna play some games and wait for my soccer match at 3.45. No need to sleep tonight! Tomorrow morning lesson from 9 to 11 only then can go home sleep again....yay! Man Utd vs Aston Villa.

Study study study!

So, another era has passed by in my life like another chapter gone in a storybook. I've worked for Botak Jones for 1 year, 1 month and I think 5 days? What a big part of my life this experience is for me and I treasure it. It's the longest job I've ever kept and I'm proud of it. I was good at my job and I enjoyed it very much! :) It's time to move on and learn new things and of course get a job related to my studies.

Actually, I've already found two. Both are engineering related jobs and the first one pays quite well. 1.1k to 1.7k depending on qualifications (at least NITEC). I think I can probably ask for 1.5k? The advertisement wasn't clear on the job scope but it had 25 vacancies so I'm guessing something like a factory? The second job doesn't pay as much because it's an internship but guess what? All I have to do is solder and assemble small parts and I earn $700/month + Allowance + Overtime. And it's at Yio Chu Kang! :P

Shem and I are going to send in our resumes to the first job and see if they'll let us start next month. For now, it's study study study! Got to do well for all 3 modules! Yeah!

NAPFA re-test is on Friday with some classmates. Two of them already received letters asking them to report to the Commando camp. Wish I could get the letter too! I wanna do something cool in the army...not some boring job like a storeman.

Anyway, got to go sleep now. The next two days I'm going to be doing FYP all alone because nobody else wants to come for project periods. Thursday afternoon and Friday whole day. Can't be distracted for the next few weeks. Just FYP and Exams!
