My last day at internship and more
Wanted to post many pictures that I took last fri but I never got down to do it...
My last day was quite eventful. Actually left the company at 6.30pm (1 hr later) because last minute at 6 my boss suddenly throw some stuff for me to do...
Me and my dept people... I look absolutely bad because I slouched (!!) and because of my clothes and I am at the position where people will look bad in photos! My dept people brought me to lunch on my last day....
(From left) The thing that is used by the restaurant to mark which bill belong to which table (which looks like an old hotel key), tofu burger and hamburger steak! The food is quite nice!

To think that on the first day Tab and I were already marking our last day on our calendar waiting for it to come....
Well, cam-whore a lot of places for the whole of this week. Would have more pictures if Tab wasn't so easy on her last few days.... that was partly why I left the company so late on fri.
Well, here is the results from all the cam whore! Which will take me nine cows and 2 tigers (九牛二虎) to do it....

The escalator that leads to my office lobby... it's kinda long lah cos it cuts through 3 floors.
My team for the intern project... don't know why Anisha is not looking at the camera. Anyway, Fred is not in the picture because he is taking it... =)

Me and the scenery from my floor!
With the data service interns
Me heart Richard Gere!
Trying to imitate Zhang Ziyi's expression...
Jin Yu and his funny way of getting something from the cupboard... he rather get strangled by the lanyard then to take out the lanyard to get the key... *sighz*
Me and Tabitha
Me trying to pose with a cap!
And I love my blouse's bow!
And I bought a Versace Bright Crystal set... super cheap lo! $25! Haha! Last loot from Raffles Place before I go back to school..
BTW, I am so upset! I accidentally got out of NUS network from my facebook account and I dunno how to go back! =( Rah!
And now I am watching another HK drama which I rented... it is called 金石良缘 or A Journey Called Life. Got Linda Chung (鍾嘉欣) which my mum thinks she is damn pretty. The show's not bad too... Haha! Will be addicted to it until I finished the show.
And I found the first episode of Moonlight Resonance (溏心風暴之家好月圓) on tudou already! The show only started yesterday! Wah, people really move fast huh? But I don't dare to watch it yet cause I promised my mum that I will watch with her so I shall hold until the dvd is out!
Ok, have to go le. Will start complaining about CORS soon (I know I will) for the last time. And I have no idea what electives to take... people, suggest leh. Which one is easy? Somemore I need 2... And I realised that I had taken all the possible marketing modules in my school le... =D
By the way, I finally extracted my wisdom tooth yesterday. Now not so painful... yesterday it hurts like a bitch!
Ok ok go le. Cheerios!

MICHAEL PHELPS IS IN SINGAPORE NOW!!!
Michael Phelps touched down in Singapore yesterday morning and...I DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!!!
In case you don't know who's Michael Phelps, he is the 19 year old that won 6 gold and 2 bronzes in Athens 2004... the most number of medals won by an individual in that Games. And he is just one gold behind Mark Spitz, who hold the record of winning 7 golds in a Games.
Only found out from Today newspaper when I was reading it before my wisdom tooth extraction... what a timing.
Read that some NTU girl waited for her at the airport and got a photo with him...
And there is lesser crowd waiting for him in the airport as compared to the Brazil team...
RAH!!
Since I have no work anymore, I could have been there... it's my dream to see him!! (Since I have seen Ian Thorpe briefly back in 2005...)
RAH!!! I AM SO DUMB!!!!!!!
Could have killed myself right now, except that my wisdom tooth extraction pain is already killing me...
I am upset. Let me mourn for my loss =(

Privileges and The Dark Knight
Watched the movie yesterday, and I love The Dark Knight movie! It is certainly darker than the first one, and more action packed that leads you to your edge of the seat. All the actors were fantastic in this movie, even the Singaporean actor. The only bad thing was that I was left aching in my seat when the movie ended. Wish I have caught this movie in a bigger theatre, where there are more seats to choose with better seats to provide me some badly-needed support for my back and perhaps seats that are further away from the screen. In any sense, I did enjoy the movie and did not mind spending $10 on it. Not to mention, watching Heath Ledger having one of his finest complete performance before his death.
I don't care whether the buzz around the movie was blown out of proportion because of Heath's death, and I certainly don't care whether the hype around his posthumous Oscar nomination was blown out of proportion as well. I believed in his performance truly and believed his character entirely. There will not be such screams for his nomination unless he did put up a great performance, which he did. (No fire without smoke saying....) I hope he gets an Oscar for this, or at least, a nomination =) Damn it Heath, I wish u weren't dead. You should have enjoyed all this right now =(
Meet Linda on friday for our usual lunch and took a picture (while we were queueing to buy her BLACK dress from G2000) .... she cut her long hair off!! Brave! But nice new look girl! And an interesting label for a pants at G2000! Cropped Cigarette!
Anyway, I am going to Singfest! Because of where I am working, I am able to go to that concert without burning that big a hole in my pocket and I am excited! (So is Adeline... she is dying to see Jason Mraz!) Privileges from my company...
And here's another... limited handphone chain! Haha!
Anyway, last week for internship is coming. Looking forward and sad at the same time... how can you say goodbye to all the people that have become your friends in 2.5 months? 2.5 months is long enough to make friends... it's kinda sad. But looking forward to late mornings and late nights and nua-ing at home! Here's to a great last week!
Cheerios.

Updates
Hmm, these few days I dunno what I should write for my blog.
Finally gotten ill in the weekend. Had been trying to feud off the virus for the entire week but to no avail. Almost run a fever on fri (my temp was 37.3 degrees already and would have been higher if I haven't took 2 panadols at a go...)... now feeling so much better! At least I gather enough strength to blog.
Work has been okay busy. Trying very hard to change the world (hidden meaning intended).... which involves working with other group members to write a report and have a presentation next tues. It's a pain in the butt sometimes, but that project makes me learn a lot. Now I really know how the payment industry works and lots of stuff that goes behind the scenes...
These few days I have been hearing Singfest so much around my boss that it really itches me and makes me wanna go. In case you guys haven't heard, The Pussycat Dolls are coming to Singfest too, on sun. Which means now the sun tix of $200 is now damn worthwhile with Jason Mraz (AC is going to go crazy here...), Alicia Keys, Panic at the Disco... and if we use the Visa card it is going to be $180 only. But I hate the standing part of the concert, plus, though $180 for so many artists is not expensive, I am still holding back. If AC really wants to go, then I shall decide. Meanwhile, I am going to sit on the fence for a very long time.
Internship is going to end in 2 weeks time. I am looking forward to the end of it (because that means I can start sleeping really late), but still a little sad at the same time. 2.5 months is long enough to make good friendships and my boss and colleagues, amidst of all their jokes, took care and look out for me. Learnt different stuff as compared to the other internship, but it's all worthwhile. Somemore I am finally getting used to the routine of going to work... oh well. Another 1 semester more and then I am really going to the real working world...
Anyway, working makes me see so much of other people. Some people don't really know what privacy means. And some people just take advantage of you... it's really unhappy to see such people around and sometimes it makes you wonder how come these people can make you sound like a total bastard/ bitch.....
Btw, lot of my friends have their convocation already. Feeling a little sad that I wasn't with them, but still I am glad that I made the right choice of staying back one more sem for my double major. From the moment I made up my mind to pursue it, I knew I did not make the wrong choice. I am glad that for once, I choose to listen to my heart and go for it. I remembered someone said the other time "Marketing and Finance? Wow, that's hot property in the market right now!" Next jul, shall take lots of photo with Irene (and freda and jiaxi) and the rest who stayed back another year to complete their doubles and honours
Some people are already leaving the company for school... My dear Min Min left last fri. I only know her during the Regional President dialogue, but somehow we clicked with each other so much. It's just chemistry I guess. I am already missing her... dunno how to survive without her in my last 2 weeks...
Other random pictures...
And now, some pictures from the recent IE outing...
(From left clockwise) Me and IE darling Hui Teng, girls group photo, Ah Hock with a funny face and the Cathay building.
Alright. I guess that is it. Maybe only to the end of my internship before I shall blog again.
Cheerios!
