Ok, finally time to crap abit here. It's been some time since the last update about tagboards.
Basically the past week was a self-imposed busy week, by doing more FYP than usual, and going for 2 career talks. 1 of the career talks treated us like king, while the other 1 was very quiet and nothing much. And yes, that means that I was in formal wear for 2 days last week. And lucky (or unlucky, depending on which way you see things) for me, both days were rainy days.
I thing for sure was that, it's time for me to grab another formal long sleeve shirt. I am looking forward to get myself a green one. Not those bright ones, but darker hue. Nowadays, I think green is a cool colour. Even my bag has a bit of a dark greenish grey colour. The bday slippers are green too. It's like, you can just stand among trees, and no one will be able to notice you…
Or rather, I have enough blue things.
Sometimes, it makes me wonder, why do I have so many blue things? Not that I don't like blue, I like it. It's a cool, mysterious, quiet, and calm colour. It can be as cheerful as the sky, and it can be as sad as the drizzle. It all depends on how one chooses to see things.
Maybe one fine day, I shall grab an 'army' to shop for clothes. But then, come think of it, most of my guy friends are not those shopping types. I have friends that are very impatient when it comes to shopping, and will not be interested in things that do not concern them. And one thing that I have realised over the years: I can always go shopping with a girl with no problem at all. She can spend lots of time trying this and that, and I don't mind at all. Maybe it's the variety of things to try (she/they try, not me ok), the different combinations to give different outcomes, and maybe, the things that you just cannot find in guys.
So whoever is too free, can find me go shopping some time (not any time. Some time).
Played some tennis with Chris on Friday afternoon. I think I can control a rally pretty well, if not for that back problem. It's easy to tell whether I am feeling anything back there, and down on the left. Just look at the way I reach for the ball, and the way I hit. When I am not feeling any pain, it's service aces. When there's pain, it's probably double faults.
Ok, not really. But I really love backhand shots. I love hitting backhands to others' backhands. I love hitting backhands to the base line. I love hitting backhands to lop the opponent. But I still love service aces more. I want more service aces.
Went for a 80-minute FNA quiz on Saturday afternoon. The quiz was alright. I think I passed. At least 5 wrong. There goes my ace mark. But it's ok. I don't mind. After that, I went to Orchard with Ben and Marie (should be, I tagged along, for a bit of their journey) after Jiahui dropped us off at the Dover MRT Station.
The train was crowded. I had to stand with my hands pressing on the ceiling near the door, and improving on my balancing skills. While taking MRTs, I rather be standing right in the middle, between the 2 rows of seats, at the connectors, or right at the glass panels near the door, not between the door. There's this saying that goes '2 heads are better than one', but on a MRT, I think couples have great balancing skills, because '4 legs are better than 2'. Obviously I only have 2 legs, so, I have nothing much to say about that.
Went over to Borders and grabbed that book which cost me $38.50. I hope it's a nice book. I hope I will not fall asleep from reading it. Anyway, it's an assignment from the tutor, so I have to read that book. Had White Chocolate Dream (no cream, no cream!) and a Chicago Cheesecake from Coffee Bean (no staff discounts this time, not at Weelock). That was my lunch for the day.
By the time we go our separate ways, it was 4pm. Took 143, changed to 189 at West Coast, and switched to 105 at Clementi to IMM. Bought bread and some other stuff, and then home.
That's one Saturday gone. Just like that.
The 'best' thing that happened during the past week was my phone failure. I could not hear any sound when I answer a call. That was my W850i. And then, I switched over to K610i. The best part? It had the same problem also! 2 phones, same problems at almost the same time. The best thing was, the day when I switched over to K610i, I was still talking to Ben while on my way down to the lab in school. Something was very wrong. Maybe I will make my way down to SE service centre and see what they can do about these 2 phones.
And in the mean time, I have to answer calls using the hands-free kit. The only problem was that whenever I put on the kit, no one called, bu when I took it off, the phone will ring some time later. Murphy's Law.
Sunday was spent stoning around and solving bugs for the whole afternoon, with TV, movies, dramas, news, more drama, variety shows, sleep in between. From the sentence, you can actually tell, that I did not do much on this day.
The tme now is almost 11.15pm. I have another test on Tuesday.
Which means, I should really sleep soon, and wake up early tomorrow to study. It's a free day anyway, and I do not foresee myself in school.
I shall post more next time.
