Bad day.

my week started with the beginning of my IA in Turbine Overhauls Services. got to make new friends from ntu and learnt more about the company and the tool engineering department. the first project came within days in the department, archiving, to be done by friday. the next project was to do a gap analysis between TOS and pratt & whitney, our sister company. time literally flies in the company. got to learn about autoCAD too... no joke man.. it's a killer.

Took leave on friday to take my m5 and m9. it's the start of one of the worst days in my life. first, i mistook the 1st paper to start at 11 when it starts at 9! rushed there at around 10 but was barred from taking the paper as i was over the grace time period. i studied so hard for it and was really pissed. mostly, with myself. guess it affected me a little as i took m9 later in the afternoon. wasn't as prepared as m5 but was confident of passing, especially when i managed to clarify a bit more on the module with james before the exam. it seems to be meant to be when i failed by a few marks.. got in the range of 81 - 87 when the passing mark was 88. damn. after that, narrowly missed my train, almost missed the bus back hall and then, like all bad days, the bus kept running into red lights. almost had to skip dinner when someone forgot about me. can't really blame the person.. i'm just having a really bad day. last but not least, my programmer meeting had just ended and i have to wake up at 8 tomorrow. just when i wanna have a much needed long sleep. oh well.. tomorrow will be a better day~

Last week of holidays

Left with my last week of holidays before the start of my IA. been so busy with everything. haven't had the chance to stay home at all since end of EID. i got an A- for EID! not too bad considering ther efforts we put in.
recently joined ryan in venture era as well as signing up as a financial planner in great eastern. Was thinking that since i've got a few policies, next time i can get my own policies as well as helping parents and relatives to review theirs. of course, i wouldn't mind if it brings in a bit of extra allowance. =)
finishing my last stay in pfizer this coming week. man, i can surely do with a little more money right now. been doing flyers job with junfeng too.. and there's a kind, lovely princess helping us free of charge! heh.. sourcing for tuition jobs right now too.. trying to save up to go to next year's US work and travel. fight!

a little tired from this few day's activities.. getting a rest.. night.
