Had driving yesterday and today as usual.

Yesterday's one was alright, just that i got another instructor not from my group again. This was the second time ever since the change in shifts. ARGH! I booked it 1 week earlier, still didnt get the instructors from my group. FIXED GROUP? BULLSHIT. But the instructor is okay i guess.



Today i had 2 lessons. The first lesson i got the strict instructor from my group. WOAH he's really strict. When he was telling me all my mistakes, i felt down... Really sad. Maybe i shouldn't drink the day before!!!! =(( THANKS TO SOMEBODY! =x The tequila is quite bad for me. Burns my throat man.. I should avoid. Makes me quite giddy and can't really walk straight after 3 shots. And maybe this is the reason why i made exceptionally more mistakes that lesson. Stalling the engine, accidentally activating the wiper, abrupt lane change(i still don't get what he says about lane change =x), doing wide left turns especially (turning the steering wheel too late, and also too early sometimes). And my right turns seem better than my left turns during that lesson! Which is usually the opposite. OMG. Alcohol is bad. Bad. Its making everything upside down. =( REGRETTED.



And the second lesson i woke up. I got an instructor from another group again which makes me quite pissed. And he is freaking quiet. He speaks monotonously. So boring. Argh. Don't have eye contact. But his teaching is okay la i would say. He demonstrated the steps first then i followed. Not bad. I think i need to see how he does it first before i can do it. And this should be the same for studies and everything else i guess. I need demonstrations first. HAHA.

Anyway, i want back the instructors from my group! That's at least better than risking getting lousier instructors from other groups.

woohoo!

Another week at my new company! =)
Nice! My boss treated us to some other reataurant at jp! YAY! He still said i forced him to treat. lol. For work, it has been quite okay. Still cheem for some of the terms. And i think i made quite a number of mistakes the past week. =( AHHH! I think i still dont have that interest for accountancy. Well, its only 2 weeks. Can't expect too much. Come on come on.

Just had driving this morning. New car. New instructor. He told me thats one of the cars used for practical test. WOO! Means i was lucky to get that car! Since it was new(barely 2 years), the 3 pedals, steering wheel and gear lever are hard to control. The clutch pedal requires more force to depress fully. The steering wheel and the gear lever too. For the brake pedal, it is more sensitive. But i got used to them after a while. Maybe its because of the new car, its very hard to stall. And so, the slope was alright for me. OH OH OH! We went all the way to woodlands road (near the zoo)! Damn far la! Got a lot of hazards like cyclists and stationary vehicles. Did a few U-turns too. Haha. Quite fun. I LIKE THE NEW CAR! =D

woohoo!

Reported to my new job on tuesday! Nice! Got a treat from my mentor that day at some hk restaurant. She is nice! THANKS! =) The colleagues are nice! They treat me well! Tried to teach me and explain to me some cheem accounting terms in many ways, cause i still don't understand them. =x Really very cheem!!! I had to wikipedia some terms to find out the meanings!
The next good thing is i have my own laptop! Can go msn and surf the net everyday! =D
Here comes the best thing: Free transport to-and-fro JE and my company! No transport costs!
But the only not so good thing is the food at the building is not very nice. No choice to eat there cause my colleagues are busy. It's near, you see. Ah. Whatever. Nice people. Nice welfare. Nice pay. I'm satisfied. =D

YAY! Most probably gonna stay for a few months there. HAHA!

Time flies. Really.

The A's were over. Then came the results. And now, have to make a choice as to what course to take and where to go. Need to do a lot of admin stuff to apply for scholarships and universities. Need to prepare documents. Oh MAN. Wow. It's march already. Sucks.

Just went to SMU's open house. Not bad, i would say. Different teaching methods, and this reminded me of secondary school life. Class of 40-45 students in a seminar with 1 professor. Allows for more interaction among the students themselves and the teacher. Encourages more speaking up in class. Will become excellent presenters next time. Okay i think. Attracted to Accountancy and Business (Quantitative Finance), but kind of afraid of the Economics area. Well, still considering Maths degree. Whatever. There's still next week. NTU and NUS.


Okay. Almost forgot i have tuition tmr morning. Shit. Have to study for FTT.

The results are out.

Happy for some subjects. Surprised, i should say. Especially for Econs. GP too, i guess. From a U(for prelims) to reasonable grade. Physics too. Was expecting a lower grade actually.
For the rest, kind of expected it.
Overall, i think its still okay.

Also, CONRATS TO MY FRIENDS WHO GOT THEIR DESIRED RESULTS!! Especially andy! Straight As!! =)
Yiping and swai ming!! TREAT PLS! =p

And for those who didn't, don't think too much about it. There are still many other options out there. Sometimes, life is like that. You can't get what you want. Maybe you are just unlucky this time round. Don't worry too much. Go for the open houses and learn more about the different courses. I believe there will always be a course suitable for you. CHEER UP! You can always talk to me! I'm always available! =)

Another sad post here!! =(

I realised i suck at driving. Really. I'm not serious at all and keep playing. I didn't concentrate most of the times. OH SHIT MAN. Gotta change this. This is throwing my money into the drain. Musn't do stupid things like ________ already. That is really stupid man! Laughed my ass off. Just hope MR YIP doesn't say it out. =x I will do my best for the subsequent lessons!

And, there is still the course to think about.
I failed in teaching. One of the parents doesn't want me. Almost wanted to ask the reason, but hesitated. Maybe because i joked too much with the kid. But when a kid couldn't concentrate and kept fidgetting, what else can i do to tell some jokes or talk about games? And then get back to serious work? AHH. I need tips man.
I don't like boring office-bound work. I don't want to be stuck in the office all day long seeing documents and files. I want some exciting stuff. If i want to do business or accountancy, my brother says SMU is better. More people got jobs even before they got the degree in SMU than in NTU. Okay. The open houses will make my decisions clearer i hope.

OH YEAH.
FTT is in a week's time. Haven got the time to study yet. Should get to the book soon.

BUSY BUSY BUSY!!
