One week of intern has just passed!

I suddenly feel that I should really treasure weekends, especially when we are all working.

My internship is going smooth still, I like the working environment, the location, RP is really a very nice place to be in. The students are quite nice in general, the staff too, are all very friendly and sociable. I am very happy to be given this opportunity to work in RP too. So now, I have experienced sec sch, JC, poly... what's next? HAHA! No! not uni!

But there is something that irritates me and I shall not say here. Actually both good and bad. I shall just tolerate with it for the next 11 weeks or more. And I will bound to have this problem again when I step into working life next time.

11 weeks to go and counting down.

Glad to meet up with daddy and mummy today at Jcube. At least something I do fun out of my work. and we are just talking about traveling this coming holidays. =) Korea? Japan? Hong kong? Taiwan? South east Asia? If I'm travelling with them, of course, I will choose SEA, since daddy and mummy are very good ambassadors of SEA. =)

Is it because my senses are too sensitive? And I am very easily annoyed with typical Singaporeans' behaviours?

Sometimes, some things, really, are not meant to be said out. Keep it to yourself.

And also, some things are not very nice to say it to your friends or colleagues. 要察言观色.

What you want to do? What you are thinking? What you want to say? Sometimes, it is better to keep it to yourself. In my opinion, people, including me, will judge for whatever things you say. Judge as in, grade your first impression.

But sometimes, it is really annoying to see such comments.

So, I am a person who never likes to be known for whatever person I am. Err, well reserved person. I won't say much or comment much on things. And be a quiet person for whoever I am. Well, I don't know if others judge me. I really don't know. But if you do, then, it doesn't really bothers me. But I keep myself afar from people whom I have first met. But, knowing me for long, you will definitely see my true colours. Hee Hee!

Given my temperament, the only career that suits me alot is “胡小曼”. SERIOUS 24/7. 冷酷无情. Always alert and suspicious.

I can't stand people doing things jokingly. When it comes to serious stuff, I can really be serious. It's just sometimes I don't have the capability to do it well. Jokes aside, come to serious things, serious. Come to fun things, I also serious. What's wrong with me hor?

Wah, I am so tired after two days of badminton. But I had fun. Otherwise, it would be a long time to exercise with friends again especially since IA is going to start really soon. But I had a fun time!

Exams are oveR!

gosh. don't know what has gone over me but I keep remembering exam times and venues wrongly! Subconsciously I keep thinking paper always starts at 1pm. Then I keep thinking my korean paper is at Hall C instead of Hall D. And then today, I sat on the wrong seat number. I wrote everywhere on my schedule, my phone schedule that my seat number is 206. Until when I was about to write on the paper, a guy came up to say his seat number is 206. I have already off my phone since then, and I have to restart my phone to check it. and was so sorry and embarrassed, thank goodness the time is still early. And, I left the phone un-off throughout the exam. OMG! luckily it's an obedient phone that does not give me any surprises.

This semester's modules were all manageable, to the extent that I aimed quite high for each paper. Out of all the 4 papers, time series was the most cui I could say. But oh well, I have been forcing myself to wake up early to study these days. From now onwards, I could sleep til as and when I like! YAY! And also, catch up on TV!

I'm quite apologetic towards my HI tuitee just now. I must admit I was getting kind of impatient when teaching comprehension... Trying hard to get her understand without me spoonfeeding the answers. Learning is not about wanting to know the answers.

funny thing before my exam today

I was having my lunch before I head to school for a core paper today. I sat down with my food and a few mins later, a lady approach me and ask if she could share the table with me and of course I replied, "Sure!". She saw my notes on the table and ask me if I was a O or A level student, I replied that I am a university student.

Then she started asking me if I teach tuition and I said "Ya I do!"
"Could you come and teach my son?"
"Oh can I have your number? What is your name? Wah, nowadays Iphone ah... very difficult to use..."
"Why not I be your agent? I have many great contacts outside, and I am sure you will earn alot of money, it's a win-win situation for me and you?"
"I used to teach in school but now I teach in tuition centres."
"My son is very busy with A levels? Do you teach Physics and , or have any friends teaching Econs"
"Which JC are you from? Pioneer JC huh? You know this ______, or ________, _______??"
"Oh you did relief teaching, you must be one of the top students there lor?"

Then she met her friend, also another tuition teacher, but luckily the conversation wasn't extended to me. I continued eating my food, but my tooth still hurts a little so I cant eat fast.

"I was teaching at tuition centres. Oh next time you should teach in primary school, then work 5 years come out be tuition teacher. It is very lucrative business, especially parents nowadays..."
"So you can still take one or two more tuition la? I ask and see if my son wants or not.. He is very busy la... "
"Physics is very difficult right?"
But I answer: physics is very common and useful to enter uni, if you go and see the uni admission criteria, physics is one of those subjects that is quite important.

"How about medical school? People will still choose biology wad..."
"No, it is not compulsory, you can still enter with physics. It's Math and Chem and Phy/bio?"
"Oh really? "
"Aiya, don't know what my son wants la, he take all the weird combi.."
"Okay, I contact you again.."

I am like trying to fu yan her most of the time. I don't think I have that kind of calibre yet. And I don't even know her well, and just give me some assignments like that meh? I feel abit overwhelmed?

As soon as I finish my lunch, I scoot off immediately... hahaha, I was thinking if I told my mum this, she will LOL.. Was thinking if I were to be with my mum, I guess no one will come to me?

Gone for my exams, eat and eat and drink as much as possible. Well, all math papers are like that. Come out with the no satisfaction feeling. But only exhaustion and hands from trembling. I guess it is still okay.

I went back and told my mum about it. And she said:
"是不是那个绑丝巾的？ "
"没有leh"
“是不是短头发？有笑容的？戴眼镜？”
"ahh....受英文教育的。”
“她叫什么名？”
"M________”

“对了啦！她跟我拜3一起跳舞的上次！最近要教补习所以没有来了。。。”
“huhh... 酱巧的？你认识他啊？”
“认识，做么不认识。。”
The conversation continues.... and the gossip goes on...

LOL!! Singapore is so small lah...

And the Battle Starts Tomorrow...

Wow blogger changed it's layout. Well, the battle starts tomorrow again, after one year of nongraded exams. I am still pretty fine studying, perhaps the good thing is, maybe there are only 5 chapters for time series, not that much as compared to other stuff like 11 lectures of something full of content. Or is it, that I have been doing fine with accomplishing all my study tasks each day so I didn't accummulate things. Jia you everyone for tomorrow, well actually exams started today right? I hope it goes all fine tomorrow.
