just back from my m'sia holiday trip, having my job attachment now at GIC. shall talk a bit abt my attachment 1st. it's really an eye-opener there. firstly, there's the free flow of tidbits n drinks. :) haha.. drank a bit too much coffee, was wanting to try more flavours on the coffee machine. apparently, my job at the Tech department is quite fun, going around fixing comps and learning about the places we visit. as in u get to see the foreign exchange, the foreign equties sections, see how they do stuff and trade n etc etc. a lot of fun stuff. more importantly, there can learn the coporate ways of doing things, the mentality, the philosophy and all sorts of stuff. it's very gd experience and hands on encounters. bascially things that school wont be teaching.
despite me learning how to fix comps there, i still cant fix the comp at my house... seems that the power box has gone boom and that my brother wants to fix it, so yar.. no choice, have no access or wat so ever to the comp at home. quite sad.. :(
okay.. on my holiday in m'sia. the drive there was made quite bearable, coz my uncle car have dvd/vcd player on board, and watched many a movie on board. 1st night was very good. the lodge was fabulous. up on the cameron highlands, u r just one step closer to the stars, and with the wind blowing nicely, it gets a very wonderful feeling. under the myriad of stars, it gets kinda romantic in a sense. haha.. went a nightmarket there, n shop around, brought some stuff here n there.. just little shopping.. was very relaxed n enjoyable. second day, went around visiting various farms n valleys, nothing out of the ordinary. but the food there was quite nice as well, affordable too. wat i loved best there, was the relaxed pace of life. could take everything slowly, enjoy the wind, the view n the air. was a very gd break from singapore n the urban life. those 2 days up there put back wat i severely lacked during the year : sleep, comfort, enjoyment and a relaxed life. now i'm back in the concrete jungle, i miss the life back there. those 2 days up there more or less revived me, after a tiring n exhausting year in jC. i didnt really realised how tired out i was, till up there.. where i was totally relaxed n resting.
then after that, went to KL. back to urban life. not totally enjoyable, but still can do, coz lazed around mostly. shopped a bit there, n they had this gigantic shopping centre (Times Square), where i developed a headache trying to shop there. it was real tough lor... 10 floors worth of stuff. brought 7 games all for less than the price of one game in sinagpore. also, brought some real fun fireworks, the next chalet, i prob bring it n have fun. muhahaha. but at KL, nothing really much other than that, so close to singapore, in terms of transport, n etc, so nothing spectucular. cameron was the best lor... the wind, the star, the air, the view, the height n the slacking. it was well worth my time for this holiday.
anyway, i think that my absence these few days has a slight impact on my social life.. coz like not been "up to update" with my frens, CCAs n stuff like that. this is made worse with my fused computer.. have to settle my dance stuff as well, some CO comp coming up (ie LOTS of practice required). oh well.. going to bit busy. so till the next time i can find a comp to use.
