Updates

Yo people! It's been almost 2 weeks since I have updated my blog.

For the past 2 weeks, besides relaxing myself after the examination, I was also busy with my new job. And yes, I have job-hopped! I have joined Elvina's company (World Kitchen), as a part-time promoter. To be honest, I never like being a promoter at all! Firstly, I don't like to approach strangers. Secondly, I don't like to fake my smile because the question is "why should I smile at strangers?"... Thirdly, I know my voice is kinda manly and loud, and I have to fake my voice to be sweet and soft, ewww! Fourth, I hate looking at my watch once every 5 minutes and wondering if my watch is spoilt (because it is not moving!). Ya, this happens when there is no business. Hohohoho! Last but not least, I had a bad experience of being a promoter when I was in secondary school. At that time, I only earned the commission $20++ for the whole day, and earned $0 for the subsequent 2 days! Yes, without basic salary ok! How pathetic I was~

Nonetheless, this job is quite okay-okay. For the time being, I am at Tangs Orchard and of course, the Tangs staff are nice to get along with. When there is no business, those staff will gossip and talk craps among themselves, and I will join in the fun too. And ya, my senior promoter is nice to me too! :) So, not so bad for me uh? As compared to my previous experience, this isn't so scary. I forgot to mention one thing... I don't like the colleaugues (of previous company as a promoter) because they appeared to be cold towards newcomers and they were very selfish to teach you because they scared you would snatch their businesses and commissions. Luckily, there is no commission for this job so I don't have to worry about the troubles of hitting sales targets. Hmm oh well, I don't know where I will be posted in the next month.

By the way, the release date of exam result is on 2 June 2011, which means NEXT THURSDAY! OMG, damn fast! Alright, I won't carry high hopes on getting good results for this semester ok. Yes, my assignment results suck! Therefore, they would definitely pulled down overall grades. Furthermore, I have little confidence in examination :( Okay, I will be working on that day, should I look at my results online before work in the morning or after work at night? If results are good, it will definitely brighten up my day! If results are bad, my mood will be adversely affected. Hmm but if I wait until I have knocked off from work, I will definitely feel nervous for the whole day ehh! Hmmmm hmmm hmmm... how? Never mind, I shall think about it over this weekend. Haha!

OH YAR! One more thing... This reminder is for all the C.K. Tangs/ Citibank cardmembers...Yes, I'm on duty from 2pm to 11pm on this day, sad! :(



Okay, that's all I wanna update for my past 2 weeks... Ciao!

Stupid Australian lecturer!


True enough, they are not going to change our grades anymore. Anyway, I hope that Allan will reflect these issues to that so-called COURSE COORDINATOR. This is what Allan replied to me via email.



Because of this issue, my morale went low when I was taking that exam. And, I am not at least confident of scoring good result for this paper.

Besides having "fantastic" marking standards, you cannot rely on the lecture notes set and given by this so-called lecturer or course coordinator. Smooth sequence of topics of module? Sorry, you arrange yourself hor! Content of lecture notes? Sorry, what is content? There is no content in the lecture notes. So, the conclusion is SHE IS NOT DOING HER JOB AS A COURSE COORDINATOR! We really have a hard time reading at the lecture notes because the sequence is not there, and we have to flip here and there for the SAME topic! Next, I believe many people are complaining that there are too many things to study for other subjects. Haha, but for this subject, we don't have to study because there is no content in lecture notes for us to study. Yes, this is what textbooks are for. But what if the textbook recommended by her, is also useless and not relevant??? Uh oh, are we just unlucky or what?

So, we will considered as lucky if we can pass this module.

Mixed emotions

Exam's over! What's next?

Complaint!
Know why? Before I took Staffing examination yesterday afternoon, I went to Student Helpdesk and collected my assignment back. @#$#^%@! My grade moderated from High Distinction to Credit. Initially, I still can't believe what I heard from Elvina that her grade dropped. TMD! Seriously, I am not dissatisfied with the grade itself, it's the comments by Dr Penny Webster, made me damn fed up! Yes, I have sent an email to our local lecturer and told him about this matter. I won't carry any hopes that this stupid Australian lecturer will change our marks. I just wanna make this matter clear to our local lecturer on HOW FANTASTIC HER MARKING STANDARD IS! Seriously, I can't believe she can be a lecturer with a doctorate, with such "fantastic" marking standard. I must admit, never in my school life, I have ever criticised a teacher or a lecturer on his/her marking standard. Congratulation to Dr Penny Webster (RMIT lecturer), she is the FIRST one :) I bet, Elvina and Sharon agree with me too.

Enough of this unhappy matter!

Next, I received my nail polish! I only bought two bottles because Zoya Mod Mattes only left with hot pink colour. Then initially, I wanna get China Glaze Poolside series (Yellow Polka Dot and Kiwi Coolada), but yellow one is out-of-stock!






Tadah~

So, I decided to try this first... MATTES :)



Hmm well, the bottle is smaller than what I expected it to be. However, you will be damn surprised how FAST it dries! Less than 5 minutes, I swear! The CON is that you can't apply top coat because you won't have matte-kind of nails if you apply top coat. Without top coat, it means that it will be easily chipped off :( No good no good! Therefore, this matte nail polish is only suitable for those people who are rushing for time but also want to change different colours everyday. Hahaha! Okay, I will try Kiwi Coolada another time :)

Woohoo! Two months of FREEDOM, here I come! :) Ciao!

Hot Topic - General Election (GE)


Woohoo! Another paper down... Left one more paper, and after that I will have 2-month vacation! L&M paper was okay-okay, but E&G paper stunned me... The questions were not straightforward, and I spent a lot of time cracking my brain to think and read the questions over and over again. Still, I can't figure what they were asking... The only way I could do is CRAP through all the way. Hopefully, they find my craps are reasonable and relevant. *pray for a miracle*

Alright, let me talk a little bit about General Election (GE)... I know everyone has his/her own views on different political parties. I think that you SHOULD analyse all aspects before you vote. Think of what this ruling party has done and how they have served your GRC for the past five years, and then think... Are they worth for your vote? If you think that they need room for improvement or they need time to repent on their mistakes, then hold your vote. Then think of the opposition parties... What did have they say and promise during the rallies? Do you think they have the capabilities to fulfill their promises? If you think that they ought to be given a chance to serve your GRC for next 5 years, then vote for them. However, we don't know what's gonna happen for the next 5 years... Perhaps they do a good job, or perhaps not.

I know that there are a lot of emotions involved during the rallies. Some people may feel angry over the mistakes made by the ruling party, or other people may feel excited over what the opposition parties said... Hmm well, my advice is "Please do not just simply involve your emotions when you are voting. Instead, use your brain and heart to think and feel...

As for me, though I don't like Tin Pei Ling and I admire Nicole Seah for her braveness, it doesn't mean that I must vote for NSP instead of PAP. That is because Nicole Seah is not going to serve Tampines GRC. Okay, I live at Tampines East where it is under Mr Mah Bow Tan. To be honest, he did a good job in serving us, such like upgrading projects. When I was in secondary school, I saw him every year during the Scholarship Awards Ceremony. I must say that Mr Mah is very friendly MP who always like to smile. However, it is a little bit too much of him raising up the public housing prices because most of the young couples cannot afford to buy houses. So I have to consider seriously before I vote. As for opposition party of Tampines GRC, I do not know what they can do for us because they only have their rally tonight. So before I make any choice, I need to listen to what they going to say.

Well, for other GRCs, I won't probe too much on it. Because it's your choice :)
