Senorita I Feel For You

just woke up from a long and shiok nap. had breakfast with mark and then went to aceglobal this morning to collect our passports. breakfast was at boon lay market. we had pig's everything soup and pig trotters, quite yummy to say the least. then mark drove down to town in the drizzle. was really tired so i slept almost the entire journey there.

last night was at zouk for the first time after the exams. had a flaming lambourghini, lotsa vodka lime and lotsa long island. wasted lotsa money. was high but not gone. bad headache. music wasn't too bad but i didn't seem to be in the right frame of mind to enjoy it. found myself fagging a lot.

well at least the exams are over proper liaoz. its not like i'm thoroughly enjoying it at the moment though, what with my fyp presentation coming up on monday, and having to bother about moving out of hall as well as my campusa preps.

so i'm constantly busy with things at the back of my head. and yet i feel kinda lonely right now all alone in my room...hmm, must be because no one's around in the block.

was pouring through the careerhub job interview session website organised during the week i'm flying off. there're tons of jobs for mechanical engineers (>200?) up for grabs. gosh if each and every one is filled that already means 1/3 of my graduating cohort's will already be employed even before i leave ntu. makes me wonder if i'm missing out on a good opportunity to land a proper job before i graduate. think it'll heap some pressure on my finding a job once i get back from the usa. haiz. xianz.

oh well it was a tough decision i had to deal with before i decided i wanted to go for this usa program (even when i tried out for the speedwing opportunities which i didn't get). will be missing my convocation, hall's orientation and dnd, and gone for 5mths. awfully long time the more i think about it.

michelle from camp chief ouray says that the other international student, the colombian kid, got his usa visa application rejected so i will probably the ONLY international student in camp now. i hope they don't start playing games like 'beat the yellow kid' or 'police and (chinese) thief'. on the bright side, she's already arranged for my transport from chicago to granby, which will be by amtrak railway. she says its a full day's ride where i'll get to see lotsa mountains, country and rolling hills (?) so it'll be lotsa fun. i sure hope so if i'm gonna be travelling all alone.

oh well. time to reply my emails. ciao.
