I started cleaning in the morning, by removing every cable behind my computer and re-organise them nicely. They were in a mess! I also managed to shift my scanner over to be on the same table as my monitor and printer! Now, the former place for the scanner is empty! I freed up a 50cm by 30cm space!<\/p>\n<p>That re-arrangement of computer things took me one whole morning. Yes I was taking my own sweet time to do that. After that, I went to dig out those things that I wanted to throw away. The old power supply, the broken light bulbs, the spoilt game controller, some envelops and letters&#8230; Found those greeting cards sent from friends. Yes I&#039;ve kept every single one of them. How many did I reply to? &#8230; &#8230; I better remember to send them some greeting cards in the near future&#8230; \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<p>Found all those receipts and documents for my civilian class 3 licence in my drawer. I applied for a PDL on 26 August 2003, and I only went for my first lesson in late October! Wasted 2 months! But nevermind, I got the final product anyway&#8230; saw those handbooks that were given to me during my military class 3\/4 course. I still remember the days when Jianliang, Evans, and I would be driven by Brandon&#039;s father from Clementi to Kaki Bukit Camp (KBC). It&#039;s so good to have such helpful friends. Saved me lots of trouble and time and money. And come think of it, we never had a chance to thank his dad&#8230; maybe, find one day&#8230; see first&#8230; his dad&#039;s a doctor&#8230; busy person&#8230; I also remembered those driving days, about Mr Ong CK (our theory instructor), Mr Ali (my driving instructor), Mr Ong Ah Bee (that famous parking instructor for his good-natured scoldings with foul words&#8230;), Mr Tiger Choo (our Group I\/C), and those instructors in the Driver Training Simulator System section(DTSS). They were great teachers and story tellers. So lucky of me to be taught by them&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Cleared up my table too. I&#039;ve put all things back to their original positions. Did some repair work to my &#039;stand&#039; for my PSR-275. Hung back that S.H.E Poster back up on the wall. Placed the VCDs and CDs together on the shelf. Now my room looked more like&#8230; my room? -lol-<\/p>\n<p>Tried out that IR USB cable once again. No, still cannot. I guess I will have to abandon that cable and get ready for bluetooth connection instead. I want a bluetooth-enabled phone!<\/p>\n<p>Booking in later. I wondered what will the people&#039;s reaction be if my phone rang when a SMS is received? I have changed the tune to something that I have created: MRT SMS! The announcement tune&#8230; hahaa. I have changed the back cover for my phone too. Decided not to bring that pen along. Now my phone looks much thinner.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow&#039;s start of orientation. Wondered how&#039;s their public road driving&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We ORD personnel have given ourselves a new name: &#039;lan jiao&#039;.. no, not the hokkien version.. definitely not! &#039;Lan&#039; as in <span lang=\"utf-8\">&#25042;&#24816;<\/span>.. lazy&#8230; &#039;Jiao&#039; is in Hokkien, <span lang=\"utf-8\">&#40479;<\/span>, meaning is bird&#8230; the whole phrase means &#039;lazy birds&#039;&#8230; <span lang=\"utf-8\">&#25042;&#40479;<\/span>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We no longer belong to the new birds and old birds category&#8230; finally!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#039;s room cleaning day!
