An Update... Finally

An Update... Finally

Ahh! Finally I'm here. Sitting down in front of my desk, getting rid of the virtual cobwebs hanging around my blog. So let's see where I left my blog hanging... Dee dum. Oh work!

Yes, work's alright! I can proudly say I'm efficient at what I do now! Even my examiner says so! Tee hee hee. It's simple really. All I do is just sit at a desk and check the candidates detail. Afterwards, free free free. For a long time. Real long time. Really long. There's so many breaks that my boredom is leaking out of my ears and into my scrap book. I got SO bored I actually wrote a page (without any blank space) of utter crap. Serious. It was just... Thoughts I had in my head at that time. TOTAL crap. If you happen to see my Azone A4 notebook, ask me to show you the last page. Really got to find something to do. I read The Incredible Hulk (the comic) for 2 days at work and that was quite nice but now I ran out of supply. I tried to relearn my magic trick and that didn't work out quite well. I tried doing my sister maths homework but got fazed by what I saw. Thought my DS would save me but it didn't quite work out. I NEED BETTER GAMES.

Overall, work is quite an experience! The travel time wears me out though. Nearly knocked myself out with the pole in the MRT when I tried sleeping upright. Meet people from all walks of life at work. Japanese, Canadian-German, India, Americans, British, Koreans... Woo! Oh yea, some parents sure drive you up the wall though. They get SO paranoid of their brats.

"Oh, can I peep into the examination room's tiny window?"
"Oh, can I see the paper you're holding on to? Because my son's name is in there."

This was the best one I heard though:
"Can I follow my child into the exam room? He/she needs my support! I can be his/her page turner too!"

NO! NO NO NO NO! Which part of N O do you not understand mam! Geez! Parents...
Alright I'll stop with the whining. It IS easy money...

Oh great news! Cass is back from her torturous vacation. And she'll be back for good! Excellent! Haven't seen her for agggeesssss. Wonder if she has aged... Lol. (wait, that don't make any sense.) Met up with her at causeway after work and gosh... When I turn my head to see her, the most incredible thing happened! Everything seemed to melt away and the only thing I could focus on was her. She was the sole person whom I could see clearly. The lone lady walking towards me. Everything else was a blur and all that mattered was her! Weird... It felt like I was watching an old movie flick on slow-mo. Exactly like that. Picked her out from the crowd in no time at all. Mmm! Couldn't be happier seeing her! She got so pretty! Hope its not my imagination... Dinner was great! (You might be thinking, "of course it's great nick. Everything's great when you're with your girlfriend." Well it WAS great. Period.

It IS great.

Last few week back, remember I told you how we were at a chalet in Bintan? Well I thought of posting some pictures of it up but NOW I can't find my stupid phone cable. So most probably next time. I also went to another one in Changi, Singapore. The latter was kind of boring. Nothing much to do. Just PS2 all the way. Really got bored. So, yea, wait for the next post. I ASSURE you I WILL put it up. Nick's promise. One you can really trust. REALLY.



RARR! Hulk mad! When Hulk mad, Hulk get stronger!

Work Work

Work Work

Went for a job briefing last Wednesday with mum at Parkway Parade, Kawai Music School, for my job. Was supposed to familiarise myself with everything. I'm going to be the person marking attendance for the people taking their music exams it seems. I was walk through everything that needed to be done. Stuff that I should avoid doing and stuff that I should be doing correctly. I know there's a lot of paper work.

I think I listened carefully enough.

Hopefully I won't stuff up.

It also seems like I have to travel around a lot with my examiner, Mr Richard Whitehead. From Kawai Music School to their branch at Millenia Walk. OMG, I haven't even HEARD of these places. And how am I supposed to bring Mr W around? Geez! I should've went out more. But I was told not to worry though as there'll be a working personnel with me for the first week. HOPEFULLY I'll be knowing what to do by that time. Kind of nervous. Starting work on Monday. The pay's not bad though. 1300+ for a month. Not bad for a student right? Here's how my pay will be used up.

30% - Shall go to my parents. (THAT wasn't decided by me)
10% - Was demanded by sis. (Can't say no can I)
$10+ - Will be spent on branded donuts. (Seems like everyone wants me to get it when I get my pay)
$50 - To make a pair of rings to make up to Cass for the one I (unbelievably lost.)

And hopefully by the time I have done all of the above, I shall have enough money to either:
~ Buy a Nintendo Wii
~ Replace my old desktop with a bad ass CPU
~ Buy more PS2 games

It's nothing much, haven't really thought of how I'm going to spend my pay. I know for sure I should save. But how much? Probably 50 if not 45% of it? Yea. Bummer. It's hard thinking on what to spend. Hmm... I don't think I'm the type that sees something, wants something. I guess I'm a pretty simple person. Don't request for much. REALLY!

Work on monday. Nerves Nerves don't fail me!



Bad Ass CPU!

Bintan

Off We Go!

Last Friday, family and I went off to Bintan for our holiday.

It was quite fun really. Took us around 2 hours to reach there and settle everything. The challet was pretty cool. 2 stories AND the most coolest thing was... We had a buggy! Yea to drive around the resort in. Way cool huh. I was ecstatic when dad told us that we have to be at least 17 to drive it. However, it turned out we had to be 18 instead. Bleargh! But then didn't deter me and my cousins!

In the end, we got so daring we even dared to drive around in the middle of the day. Joy got pretty enthusiastic about it, Shan too. Even waving and being (overly) friendly to the personnel there. I was SURE they would get in trouble sooner or later. I mean, my sister don't look 18!

Just as I predicted, there was trouble. OF COURSE there was trouble. It was I, The Great All-Seeing-All-Knowing NICK OH that foresaw what was going to happen. My 1st aunt (who doesn't have a license) somehow drove the buggy into a drain and broke part of the curb. The resorts personnel who was going around minding their business saw what was happening and came to help. In the end, everything turned out to be something big. The STUPID resort people was making such a big fuss out of everything. They wanted us to pay for the DAMAGED PLANT that the buggy drove into. I mean... What is their problem? Are they trying to leach all the cash they can get from tourists? Are they trying to find ways and means to get us in trouble so we have to frigging pay?! Yes that's what I don't like about Bintan. THEY SUCK.

They're all smiles and stuff when they're are serving you but WE KNOW, WE KNOW YOU ARE MONEY LEECHERS! Sheesh... Geez, I'm all feisty today aren't I.

It was hard trying to stay up past midnight. Kind of weird. I can do that at home but not here. Maybe cause all of us were tired out from what we did in the day. We were at the beach and we buried my cousin's boyfriend! lol. It was pretty fun. I've some pictures but I'll put it up another day. We gave him breasts and a ding-dong. It was hilarious! I also dug some sort of "water system" on the beach. You know when you're at the beach and when you dig deep enough, you'll find water in the hole? Yea. Well we dug and dug lots of holes and there was this huge hole we dug which practically got filled with water. It had a 2m radius? yea. Looked like a mini pool. We connected lots of pits like these together and it was pretty hard work. Digging and digging. Sis made a sand sculpture. It was fantastic! Mermaid. Lol. Pretty nice.

Cousins had to go home though, the day before we did. Kinda bummed out. The whole place seemed quiet when they left. Wish they could stay longer. The whole thing was a pretty fun experience. Nice place they've got, except for the money leeching idiots.

Oh yea, surprisingly, ALL of my cousins fell ill when they got back home. Down with a fever and stuff. I wonder why. Its so weird! ALL of them. Gosh... Wonder why my sis and I didn't fall sick. CHOI! Touch wood! *slams hand on table* Better not say it too quick.

Mum and I just ordered something online for the very first time. Pretty neat! I ordered 4 PS2 games and we had to transfer the money to the person. Lol. It was easier than I thought but mum was so paranoid.

What if my money's gone?
What's he going to do with my bank account number?
You better be sure its safe Nick.

Gee wheez. CHILL! Alright, my time's up. I gotta go! But I'll see you around!



I'm...

Outrage

Outrage!


Had a tiff with dad last night. Weird stuff. He blew up in my face for no reason. It was half past eleven when the news was over and I wanted to play the PS2 for a bit. Right then, dad blew right up on me. WHAT THE HELL WAS HIS PROBLEM ANYWAY?

"NO you may not play the playstation."
"But it's 11.30! I'll just play till around 12"
"NO. You should sleep early. You still have school tomorrow."
"WHAT? But its NOTHING. Its only lectures."
"NO"

His tone was final and he was practically giving me a scolding. THEN he went on about how I should go to poly now instead of staying on in JC so I wouldn't blame him if I was having a hard time studying in JC. But then, I already made a my own choice. I wanted to stay now. He's confusing me! JC? What? Now poly? WHICH ONE??

On my 17th Birthday he said to me, he wouldn't scold me anymore since I'm considered an adult already and I should be able to know what to do and what not to do. But look at what he is doing... SHEESH. I really wanted to scream at him. REALLY SCREAM.

I SCREAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

Sighs... I give up.

Hello Hello!

Hello Hello!


Heh heh, haven't been updating much these few days. I'm sorry for neglecting you my blog! Do not hate me for this!

Anyway! Got back results on friday and like... WHAT THE F__k?! My class, the class who skips lectures, the class who can't be bothered with school sometime. THAT class...

Did well?! (well = promoted)

But amidst all the happy moments, there was still some people who were sad. We were not to be 0743b anymore! What is a class without everyone who made it a class? I still feel that we should ALL advance together. Subjects can be improved on with time... So what the heck?

Found out there was still to be school next week! AARGH! How can they do this to us? A week of lectures. Terrible terrible. Well as I'm not called Nick for no reason, I pretended I had no lectures. I put the schedule in my file where my report slip was. HOWEVER, SOMEHOW, SOME WAY, my I-see-all-I-know-all mother discovered my schedule... Didn't say much though, and that's the scary thing. Wonder if I still have to go to school tomorrow...

Oh well, if I did, I'll just bum around or something. Ack, I'm bored... going to play narutimate accel now! (Thanks JW for getting my game!)


Ikuzo!
