i haven't blogged in the longest time, largely cos i've been working from 8am to 7:30pm on weekdays.. by the time anything gets done, it's already 9+pm..

work has been the same, with the same people and the ever changing faces of the "newbies".. but still, newbies don't stay long; and we "old staff" just hang around with each other.. thus the newbies seldom get to mix around with us, and then they find it boring and leave after a while.. it's a viscous cycle.. nobody cares to break that cycle, i'm leaving in a month, i can't be bothered..

i enjoyed the company of pohling, because we spend over 12 hours a day together (from 7:45am to about 8pm while waiting for the bus).. and i think we click really well, and there are several occasions when we talk too much and there are a lot of people who will try to prevent us from sitting together.. they largely gave up cos it's either we move to somewhere else together and start talking again, or one of us won't be productive and they can't get their things done on time.. i'm glad for her company cos this "job" became so fun that i actually look forward to it everyday - despite the terrible pay of $5 per hour.. but i get to do really interesting stuff like repairing broken links for the images and doing the illegal stuff that i'm not really supposed to do.. we broke a thousand and one rules - from bringing in our water bottles, to bringing in food, to going for unofficial breaks.. but the fact remains that we work better when we eat, so they don't really care that much too.. so that's work, and that's how it has been for the past month; and for the next month ahead..

outside work, i met up with jesse, quanyou and xingloong to watch terminator salvation at the grand cathay last saturday.. and it was marvelous (the cinema).. but the show itself was a letdown because of a terrible plot, but it wasn't a complete disappointment because the sound and the effects were great thanks largely also to the grand cathay..

other than that, life was been routine.. way too routine..

oh and i'm looking forward & dreading uni life at the same time.. jesse tells me it's hell, but i'm looking forward to the fun and the usage of my long asleep brain.. i received the freshman guide from NUS, and i'm probably not going to go for any orientation camps.. i don't believe in paying for torture.. and i believe that man is a social creature..
