the one with the results

another fren departed ntu due to bad results. but i am convinced he can get a job better than any other people with good results in ntu now. what gurantee u a job in the future? your superior grades than others or your outstanding track records? i chose to believe the latter. yeah you can say i sour grapes, giving up on my 2nd upper cos it's really hard to achieve and that's why i am making these comments. but i told myself umpteen times that it is the character and personality that matters. i dunno what employers are looking for in employees but for myself, i would want to know what have you done before than solely looking at your results. if your results are so-so, but you have shown your capabilities in other aspects, i would hire you. no qualms for those with superb results and outstanding credentials. there are many other things that really matters other than pure academic results. no doubt that they are important, but without a balanced life and basic interpersonal communication skills, i would never hire you. that's is my own opinion but i strongly believe in that. and i hope i can find a company that regconise my talents in my efforts to search for a career upon graduation.

the one with the new house

yes i am moving to amk next march. but i haven been doing much. i rem i wanted to plan this plan that while i was having my exams. but nothing have yet to be done. i guess there are just too many restrictions. i really hate the way my parents handle the house moving. it just seems like they don't care how the new house looks like. come on, we are moving house for the first time in like 30 years and they can't seem to put in a bit of effort to make it a comfortable environment? i will be staying there after my sch years and i want it to be something cosy. not sth slip slack kind of shit. is that too hard to understand? i will still keep trying to convince them to make it a nicer place. but it is getting harder to get into that thick head of theirs. if all to no avail, i will do everything to make my room a cosy one, even if it is abit mroe costly. sighs.

the one with 2008

i finally blogged since last may 2007. it has really been a long time cos i was just plain lazy. since it is the new year, i decided to continue blogging and keep it a habit to do so. i started this because i wanted to keep a self diary that i can look back on in the future. so i hope i can continue doing so after proscratinating for so damn long.

2008 is going to a year of changes. firstly, i am moving house to amk in march. i finally can have a room of my own and it's going to be fun! secondly, it is my final year living in hall and studying in ntu, bringing an end to my "student" life. baby not in hall to be with me and it's gonna be so different. thirdly, i will enter the workforce and start living as an employee of a company. no more slacking and it is going to be an 8-5 job for the rest of my life. lastly, both my bros getting married in march and december. and after tat, i will be the only one living with my parents. it will be a few years more before it is my turn. my mind is filled with so many thoughts of the future.

spent the first day of 2008 testing my endurance of my butt. night cycling at the age of 23 is not easy anymore i guess. we are no longer as young as we thought and i could no longer take late nights. ζˆ‘θ€δΊ†γ€‚

some so called "resolutions" that i would like to make. but i know that there is no gurantee that i will do it. so remind me if i forget. exercise regularly, procrastinate less, find a good and satisfying job, less vulgarities, love her even more.
