last results slip/ 11:41 PM results out today.. I GRADUATED!!!! seriously, didn't really care much about it la, just keep having the undue worry that i might fail any modules. anw, results were not very good, but still an overall improvement of 0.03 (like it matters) first thing that i did after seeing my results: print it out and submit to HR! i think work had taken my mind off a lot of other things. otherwise i think i'll be very anxious now. I think i can handle more |

the art of arguing/ 10:58 PM i was watching bits and pieces of the synopsis on parliament debate yesterday over the news somehow rather, a thought came to my mind: the very act of arguing itself justifies the other side's claims |

first 2 days at work/ 11:13 PM APEC, ASEAN, FTAs, SCCP, ACBD, WCO, RKC, AEO, RoO, RILO, NCP etc etc etc... woahs, damn lots of acronyms... but its quite exciting too! i finally get to see and be involved in things that i've learnt and talked so much about for the past 4 years. (: and the soft skills i learnt in Arts Club and OCR, and the knowledge learnt in SBF had indeed helped me a lot! and i think my pass is quite cool, black leather casing and blue lanyard! hahahaha |

Future and Tough Times/ 11:37 AM Been trying to blog out my thoughts since last week, but I can't seem to type in anything at all. lots of feelings, emotions, memories, experiences that I want to pen it down, but I don't know where to start. My experiences last year (backpacking + dad's passing away) had made me a less reminiscent person. I begin to look into the past less and less. I've learnt to force myself to look forward, to never stop, to never look back. And I think my Arts Club re-running days set the foundations for such a character. Indeed, one would argue that a person with such a character will lose more coz he does not treasure what he has. I often blame myself for that too. But hey, how do you feel when you look back? a tinge of sadness/ melancholy/ anger/ wish you could do more/ or happy moments that are no longer there? And the present traps you to "now", and all your focus will only be on what's in your hands At least the future offers hope, coz we never know what's there in the future for us! (: So the important thing is to strike a balance between the 2. For me, the past is with tears and laughters. The past is something certain, confirmed. It had happened and cannot be changed. No doubt, the future is full of uncertainties. But it also means that there's a possibility for change the present. And the possibility to create and realise our dreams. I think I've been through a fair bit of tough times to say this. . Indeed times are tough now. But I think tough times produce tougher people. Hey, we 84-86 batch had been through quite a number of shitty times remember? 1984 economic slowdown, oil bust, guinea pigs for streaming and project work, PSLE, O and A levels, Asian Financial Crisis, SARS... you name it, we kena it before! hahahas "时势造英雄" We will get there! (: I hope that I can get my thoughts settled down soon to pen a meaningful conclusion for my 4 years of uni life, and 4 years of my blogging life. |
