A Journey Towards My Own Destiny

Finally a post...

Was wondering if dust has gathered in my blog before I logged in... One semester has ended after I came back from Down Under... And yesh, I still miss Aussie... I want to sniff the air, greet the people and embrace nature again... There are many things to update but I am definitely not going to list them all down here...

Semester went well and grades have improved... Many thanks to Yuanyuan and Junxiang for putting in so much effort into the programming aspect... Most probably will be minoring in Technopreneurship... I am not minoring for the sake of minoring for a prestige or exclusivity... I want to learn and apply to MemoryCapture which will hit the wave next year! =) Most probably will be an associate with the NUS International Relation Office (IRO) too... Will be a great learning experience though the manager did warn me of some of the mundane tasks within my work scope too...

Not forgetting my bet with HP: 1st December 2006... *secret*

Not going NOC anymore after much struggling and weighing of options... No regrets. Gonna make it up with Techno Minor.=)

Contemplating going back to finish up my remaining 3 months of National Service in May after exam...

Michelle is flying off to California for SEP next week and so will Qicong who will fly off to Switzerland in March...

Defoe was here on 1st December till 15th December... Think I was not that great a host coz I was busy some days and did not manage to show him around... But thanks to all my aussie-made friends who helped me showed him around too... Okie Defoe... reserve a place for me next December... Hong Kong beakons? hahaz...

Chewling is in Europe right now... Yea... Enjoying a white christmas...

Oh yea... I am still not done with the transcription... Is really tedious... But is on the way, finally... Human talk faster than they think; and hence accounts for many redundants words... Now I have about 60+ pages with about 23000 words for a 3 hours meeting?

Went zoo the on Friday with Fusheng Jm, Liling, Janice, Desmond and Jamie... I think there is not much changes or maybe I have forgotten... The las time I went zoo was in junior college days when I went there to do volunteer work at the night safari in the day time... We use spades to dig up rhinos' shit and visit castrated lions whose manes had all dropped off... Witness how rats and creatures are killed to become food for the carnivores. But what major changes can a zoo have right? It is to recollect the childhood innocence again... Innocence... Have we all lost it???

During a animal show, a young boy was asked by the host:"Where are you from?"

Nah... he did not say Mother's womb... Not that smart...

He said: "Marriot Hotel"... Kids...haz...

This brought me back to the Russel Peters Comedy I watched...

What do you get when a Cuba marries a Ice Lander???

Little Ice Cubes!

What do you get when a Greek marries a French guy?

FREAK!!!

And ya... the essay competition which I have yet to complete the abstract for... Will continue on it tomolo... Got the outline out already... Chances are low but you never know till you try... =)

My room is in a utter mess now... Packing up..and clearing the clutters... Chinese New Year is coming... It seems to me that not long ago I was still preparing to embark on my SEP trip to Australia...

=) time for bed and a new day tomolo!
