SIAN!!

Yesterday's driving was my worst, i would say.
Failed the circuit. Mount kerb, hit pole, didnt check blind spots, didnt signal, do everything quickly and recklessly. Disappointed. Utterly disappointed with myself. Shit. I need more practice. And money too. And some luck.

I'M SAD AND SO SAD....

I did very badly for the SMU interview.
Get your facts right. Go update yourself on current affairs. It's not so simple as you think. You will need PASSION, if not you won't last for 4 years. What you said is just a small part of what accountancy really is. Please make sure you really are interested in accountancy. IF you really get the offer, IF, please consider carefully.

Sian. I guess i'm just not prepared for all these. Heard from my friends theirs were okay. No current affairs question, no suan-ing, just questions on cca and about themselves. And theirs were 10mins only, but mine was 20 mins i think. Whatever shit. I still have other choices, hopefully.


Sucks. And please stop disturbing me. I'm almost at my limit.

Nice holidays i had! =)

Thursday evening: Company Dinner at Toa Payoh Lorong 8 Mellben Seafood
Haha! Nice dinner!! SUPER DUPER LARGE CRABS! OMG. The pincer is as big as a person's hand!!!!!! I ate 2 of them and 1 leg, so thats almost 1 whole crab. WOOHOO! =D There were others like prawns, seafood toufu, spinach, sea cucumber soup, etc etc... And guess the total for 3 such tables. 1.2k!! OUCH. Can go eat at some other places with nice ambience and whatsoever right. BUT WHATEVER. I LIKE THE CRABS.
And my colleagues are funny and lame. Nice hanging out with them.

GOOD friday:
Met up with sb5. The few of us as usual. Ate at this Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe. The french toast and milk tea is nice man! BIG french toast! =D YUMMY! Too bad tuck hing can't join us. Anyway, he enlisted yesterday! Hopefully everything went well for the first day... Haha.

Saturday:
Went to school to collect a photocopy of the SGC and to meet up with CO juniors for lunch. Haha. And so the PW results were out. And that reminded me of last year too. Forget it. Anyway, ALL THE BEST FOR SYF ON THE 6TH OF MAY! =D I hope to be there!

Driving was next. Perverted instructor. He likes to act pro and complete all the circuit stages at fast speed. But his teaching is quite good. I got quite stressed with him. His instructions are given promptly and expects me to follow straightaway. Like IMMEDIATELY. So i was quite kan chiong. LOL.
Overall, i think my low speed control needs some more practice. And i mount the kerb and knocked down poles like 2 times. But i think he taught me quite a lot of things as to how to improve. For emergency brake, how to not stall the engine, how to know if the car is in the centre of the lot, must check blind spots, and do everything quickly but at very low speed. NOT BAD.

Went to watch movie. TAKEN!!! DAMN NICE! SERIOUS. The script is nicely written. WOO! I don't mind watching again. EXCITING detective movie. GO WATCH, FRIENDS!!! Won't regret it!


And, the interview is on tuesday. Hope everything will go well. Sian. I should have taken leave tmr too. No mood to go to work. I hope its only friday today... Wanna have more fun. LOL.

Anyway, Delvin and Jianwei are enlisting soon. All the best! =)

Had 2 driving lessons today. Or rather, 3, if you count the driving stimulator.

The driving stimulator is quite lame. But i learnt quite a bit from it. Must always keep in mind the 2 sec rule. Learnt how to do Emergency brake. Must react very fast. Drive slowly at bends and whatsoever to avoid unexpected hazards and what not. A lot of theory. Haha. The instructor is quite funny. Not bad not bad. Met a new friend there too. He, like me, likes math and figures and he used to stay at Toh Guan too! So coincidental! Taking accountancy too, which is one of my choices. Haha.

Then came the 2 lessons. Got the same instructor for both. Dont know if i count myself lucky or unlucky. But im not really happy about it. His teaching is not very good. Didn't get much satisfaction. Guess probably he's too lenient. Still not very good at the 2 parkings. Cuz he kept giving me instructions thats why i can do it most of the times. Had to do MANY MANY corrections. Had to remember MANY MANY MANY steps. AND, OMG! I stalled many times during the 2nd lesson. =( The instructor said i can get into the Guinness World Record for stalling the engine. Something was wrong with me. Its been quite long since i stalled many times. So sad! Should be keeping the number of times i stall to the minimum. Awwww.. =((((( When it comes to the summary of stage 3, i must do it perfect! There is only 1 chance. Take it or leave it.

Anyway, he's really funny. Keep saying that driving is a CHICKEN IN A BISCUIT. WHAT THE HELL. Asked me go get motorbike license too. Lame shit. He's got the shit out of me when he suddenly slammed the bonnet (to do E brake). And this is where the driving stimulator helps. Haha. Didn't react fast for a few times cause i was shocked. And forgot to press the clutch down. So the engine stalled once again. =(

Overall, i'm not really happy with my performance today. Sian.

1. Stalled the engine for more than 10 times i guess. =((((((((((((( AHHHHHHH!! Must accelerate and have good biting point.
2. Didn't get the steps really right for the 2 parkings. I kind of mixed up the 2 and so mixed up the steps.
3. My speed was too fast for circuit. Low speed control quite bad.

Parallel parking:
3 turning points.

Vertical parking:
1 turning point.

Practical Test:

15th June
1325pm--warm up

Well. I will and must pass this!! Hope daddy's birthday will bring luck to me! =)
