it's MOONCAKE time

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to ALL! It's the time for reunions, mooncakes and embracing the beauty of the moon. 
so, while I wonder what my fellow friends have been doing... I am sitting here in front of my lappy giving an account about my own life. 

So, I have finally ended the 16-days-long job for Goodwood Park Hotel (Mooncake Festival) yesterday, it has been a tiring yet fulfilling job. Though there were many unhappiness along the way, am still glad and grateful for the people I had met. We may not cross paths again, but the fact that they had appeared in my life among the billions of people on Earth... I guess that's something to be happy about. 

During the period of working at Century Sq, I had met ex-colleagues from Finest.. Looking back, I wonder why I had been so afraid of stepping into my ex-work places.. being scared of being recognised and all. Haha, so I guess I have passed that stage, and so... perhaps I have grown up quite a bit in the past 3 years huh. hah. 

Due to a hectic work schedule of an average of 13 hours everyday the past two weeks, I wasn't able to practice driving since passing the test.. Just in the afternoon, daddy decided he wanted to go to the FairPrice Xtra next to Changi City Point.. With ME driving the car. hah. Having not drove daddy's car before.. I cant help being scared. hah. But it turned out fine, with a few sharp turnings and stuff.

Alright, just gonna rest and slack while I can during the next two days.. once again, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!! =D

a Happy Day

It was finally d-day for my driving test! Went to the driving centre for the warm-up session at nine in the morning.. Had the test around 10. I had thought that I was going to fail.. *there were mistakes here and there* but unexpectedly, I passed.. Quite lucky I must say. 

After being flown to cloud nine, we had a last minute decision to have a catch-up session with the army-boy whom starts his two-years of duties from tomorrow, Jon and the forever MIA guy. haha. Mak didn't come in the end. )= 
Went to AMK, walked around while waiting for HJ to join us. Went to the nEbo cafe and played board games! =D We played the guessing 'who am I' game.. which was really challenging for me since my general knowledge wasn't good.. at all.. haha! So we had a change of game.. to Saboteur. 

Saboteur is a mind-game. haha. It was confusing to play initially.. but it got addictive.. It was really fun trying to trick each other.. to the point that we didn't really trust each other in the end. It was absolutely hilarious. 

I guess fun days like this is where time passes really fast.. so, I had to go off before dinner since my family had made a pact, saying that, if I were to pass, they would have a celebratory dinner at Swensen's at Changi Airport T2. And so.. we did! =D 

Hopefully, we would have more days like this.. where more people could come along.. It would be more memorable. (= 
Anyway, so hip hip hurray to me for passing my driving test.. and it's time for me to rest before I start work on Friday. *Hwaiting*

a "marathon" day

It was an as-though-it-was-a-marathon kind-of-day today... Went from place to place just to get things done.. with much frustrations along the way... =.="

Summary of the entire journey:
Home - Eunos (Driving Lessons) - Serangoon (I was lazy to take the overhead bridge, so I took the bus to the nearest MRT station) - Raffles Place (to have my ID photo taken) - Cityhall (which I exited and realised illuma wasn't at City Hall -_-") - Bugis (to register for JLPT N5 exam) - Home (:

Got kind of irritated from finding the ATM of that respective bank at Bugis. I was being so dreamy after driving that nothing was going right. ): 

And yeah, I registered for JLPT Exam for level N5 (the easiest level), which means, I have approx. three months to study for it. Considering that I just paid the class fees for IJ202 (Final Jap module with NP) + the entire JLPT test fee.. I'm considerably broke. ): I have literally no allowance this month since everything went to Japanese ): 

Shall eat air for the rest of the month. ):

Semester Break!

Hurray to completing the crash course for Intermediate Japanese 201, which signifies the start of my semester break! =D So... what's my goal for this holiday?-:

Goals for Semester Break:
1. Catch-up with friends! - It has been nearly an entire month since I'm back and no one wants to see me. *sigh* -except for those lovelies who's been meeting up for nth times the last 3 weeks.. :')
2. Learn the basics of the GUITAR! - this has been appearing on my resolution list for a considerably long time... In fact.. too long a time. It's time to get started! :D
3. Revise Japanese & Memorise Vocabulary! - Ought to be more diligent if I want to improve my proficiency in Japanese... I barely scraped through the Japanese Module this time round.. ): 
4. Visit Gardens by the Bay! - Been hearing about how nice the place is.. the infrastructure and etc... Would love to see how it turned out since it was a million dollar project? or was it a billion dollar project.. hmmz.. 

I don't think I'm being too ambitious here. p(=^-^=)q Hwaiting!
