special looking moth outside my sec 4 class last year
and it was another week since my last post. time moves too quickly when school starts. damn.
and so school "really" started in week 2, with tutorials and workshops beginning as well. it is then I realised how similar TB31 and TB32's schedules are, since I can meet hannah jacqueline and hup song on a daily basis.
it is not the first time I said this. but they are probably my closest friends in poly and I am thankful for being able to find a core group of stable friends in this volatile environment.
and it seems my tutors are all not too bad, no slacker types this time round. though they are very international, with american (Taylor for BCOM), american born chinese (Jonanthan Li for MIEC), chinese national (Zeng Xing for ITB), ang mor pai singaporean (Alphonsus or something for OBSE) and true blue heartlander singaporean (Ong Poh Leng for BSTA).
unfortunately they are all guys. whatever happened to the female tutors?
and this week is going to be busy. I am just listing them here so I can keep track.
- MIEC make up tutorial tomorrow while I rush the e-Portfolio by night time.
- on wednesday it will be for some information research talk by the library.
-thursday will be used for the Leo Club booth at NP@45 thingamajig.
-I am working on friday. and I just worked today.
-on the weekends I have to hunt for some nice shirt for the first BCOM oral presentation evaluation next week while preparing the mock job interview thingy.
next week there is also this tea session for Towards Outstanding Performance (its short form is TOP. talk about corny acronyms) students. then the BCOM assessment (OMG) too. school life is picking up speed again.
on the work side of things, things are going alright, though my work performance wasnt as perfect as two weeks ago. which is bad. I wish to keep those who had at least that bit of hope in me happy and when they get disappointed I feel very bad. so I will strive hard for greater perfection!
and with JEC outlet closed our business must have increased hundredfold. we were never fully booked (or even half booked for that matter). at least in my 2 months there. but now we are fully booked for the whole afternoon and we had to get people to leave earlier to let more people in.
is this better? well at least no more fliers. I prefer being busy serving than distributing fliers. you sweat both ways, but at least you dont sweat so much for the latter.
and finally, who on earth is that ahem who tagged? let me know who you are. real men dont hide behind their computer monitors like cats. lol that reference sounded rude.
and now for heavier things.
I realised my secondary school friends have mostly forgotten about me lol. it is pretty evident looking at recent blog posts. maybe they took me as a mere acquaintance nia la I dont know. I wasnt really close to my sec school friends cos I am not the gamer type. so yeah I guess that's the reason they wont consider me friends per se la. no common interest.
sometimes I am not informed about outings. maybe they thought I will be busy pattor-ing. maybe they just plain dont feel like asking me. that is something I dont really wish to know either.
in case they still had any ounce of wanting to ask me for something but didnt for fear of interrupting me, dont worry. just ask and I would try and make time as far as I could. I am going for gail's concert. I may be assigned work on that day at first, but I had already informed them I wont work on that day. so yup.
okay la lesser sad thoughts. or I will resemble that dead-looking moth on the wall.
