4 days of pamphlet giving and i'm left with a body of muscle aches, absolute sleep deprivation, even worse complexion, knees that constantly buckle and infected eyes.
giving out pamphlets along orchard is certainly not easy. having to stand in the hot sun, smile at ppl, and face rude ppl is a completely trashy feeling! but at least i'm 183 bucks richer now. boy do i need the money!
i'm starting to feel the hazard that the world cup season does to one's health and sleep patterns. just one night of watching soccer is enough to kill me...i wonder how some can do this for the entire season :S
so now i'm back to being jobless, and back to bumming ard everyday...i hope someone reads my resume, likes it and hires me soon.

life without electricity
long talk short say (chang hua duan shuo)...my entire street suffered a blackout at 2 freaking am last night...and i thought my dad didn't pay the electricity bills! had to wait for an hour before it came back on!
i never knew how precious electricity was until last night. the house phones wouldn't work because they are all cordless phones, the aircon couldn't work and so we couldn't sleep, there was no light, and we had to survive on one dim mag light, one cranky led torch and two lousy torches, the internet couldn't work so we could not find the tel no. for the singapore powers (is that what it's called?) online!
and i would like to applaud the power supply company for its excellent service! after they turned the power back on...they bothered to call us back to tell us that everything's in order again..at 3am in the morning. a bit moronic coz we already resigned to our sad fate and were falling asleep...but nevertheless, very good service!

ok i have not done anything productive at all since i got back. then again, i've only been back for three days. so i guess that's not too bad is it? the job hunt has certainly not started, and hence i am still living off my parents, and all i care about right now is to play. shite.
only consolation and thing that is holding back the nagging from my parents about my slow job hunt quest is........a call from mindef yesterday, inviting me to a test session next week. i applied for the post of research associate three weeks ago, and i guess i'm quite lucky that i've got some sort of offer upon reaching home. ok no..it's not even an offer..it's a blardee test..that i have no idea about. why i applied for that job? i have no idea either, it just sounded like one of the things i think i can manage. haha...ahh...we'll see how it goes.
so yes...i hope more of such calls come along in the next few days!
on to the next topic.........relationships!
was talking to two friends last night and this morning about relationships..romantic ones of course. and i was hearing stories about how people are putting off getting together because of studies and what not. i thought through it, and i realised that using studies as an excuse to not get together with a person, while making that person wait for you, or hold on to any form of hope of getting together with you, is one of the stupidest, most convenient, and totally trashy excuses in the world. like how pms is a farking bad excuse for girls' irritating bad moods and tantrums (see...i am not biased!).
"i don't want to get into a relationshiop now because i want to concentrate on my studies."
i am sure everyone has heard this at one point or another in their life, from someone that they thought they were going to get together with, or from other people who were supposed to get together. why do i say it is a blardee lame excuse? because...this excuse just shows how much of a person you are. if you were thinking of hardworking and conscientious and anything else positive, you are WRONG! it just shows how lousy you are at time management and at managing your life, and how lazy you are for coming up with this lousy excuse.
there is time for everything. time to eat, sleep, shit, play, study, work and of course a relationship. if you use that excuse, does that mean that other than eating, sleeping and shitting, you will ONLY study and do nothing else?! i know..some people will say..."oh but relationships are not a one person thing..they involve more than one person." so hello? you mean playing and going out with friends is a one person thing? you only go out with yourself all day long and only talk to you and yourself only?if you are a loner and a freak who does that..then ok you may be excused. however, if you are not, and you use that excuse...then i would think that in the future after you have gotten married (of course during a period of time when you are exceptionally free), and then suddenly you get very busy with your work, then you want to divorce your wife because...oh..you want to concentrate on your work?! what rubbish.
but of course..this reasoning is only applicable when the person that you are getting together with is not some obsessive mad person that demands that you spend 24/7 with him/her. if that person is like that...then by all means...use any excuse you want. you can even say you foresee yourself dying tmr, so getting together today is really a very bad idea. that, i agree will work too. some may say i am talking rubbish here...but seriously...go and think it through...using studies as an excuse is just really trash.
ok i am done with my rambling. shoot back if you want to. but i can't be bothere to argue with you , if you want to argue with me.ha!
