Terence is Lazy

Haha... I have been lazying around eversince after my december papers... I dun even feel like blogging... haha...

Well, I have officially graduated from NUS!!! Yea!!! Passed all modules and even got a very good and unexpected grade for my so call Final Year Project. Really very happy that my team acheived grade A. Trust me, the journey to an A was really not easy. It is so tough not only on the technical side, but also the coordination within the team and the understandings from one another. Ok... I am a bit fake here... for those who know will know what I am trying to say ya... haha...

Still remember at the very last and critical stage of my project time, my team and I really almost everyday stayed overnight in school... or rather, worked overnight with very little sleep... that time, 3 of us still had a test to go for... and eventually we failed the test quite badly because we had no time to study... we were so focused on the project as we were afraid we couldn't finish the testing in time... those were the days man! Thank you for those who were with me all the way... despite of my lack of knowledge and stubbornness, you had shown patience, closed guidiance and understanding... Thank you!

As for the exams... the most tough and scary paper of all was the probability paper... really very tough and totally no idea what is going on with the paper... Every questions I did was half done... and thats the point when I wondered will I ever graduate this sem? Luckily I did... haha... Heng ah...

Immediately after the papers, I went to japan again! Yea... winter japan... But my first trip I met a very unfriendly tour guide... she was a tom boy and many of the professionals in the field had commented about her... During some occasions, I almost wanted to give her a tight slap man! 3 days later after I came back to Singapore, I flew there again... hee... this time round the tour guide was a good one... I would ranked him the second best from all the tour guides I had ever met. But this second trip was a very sad one for me... coz I fell sick on day 3... Very bad flu and weak body... Couldn't sleep at night and no medicine for 2 days... Eventually I bought some medicine which cost me ard 20 sing! I feel very ex la... but no choice.. still have to buy and eat... hoping that I will get better... but it din!!! Still as sick as before... and this time round, I got myself those masks to cover my mouth.. dun wanna spread my powderful virus to everyone on the bus... Another dissapointment was that on the last nite, we stayed in this hotel located at Shinjuku! The most happening shopping and nite life area in Tokyo! But I got no mood and no strenght to explore the place... too sick to walk around... So sad.. haiz...

During my exam and the in between my japan trips... I went for 2 interviews... one with Creative and another with Singtel... I think Singtel really need people le... coz I did not prepare for the interview at all but still able to get in.. hee... so now I am working in Singtel! haha... as System Analyst... Welcome to the 8 to 5 working world man! Tell you... I really hate this kind of 8 to 5 working life... haha... perhaps I need some time to adjust to it ba... Now I got nothing to do in the office... everyday read some documents which make no sense to me at all... not that I dun want to find out what is it... but is abt the business logic of the projects... then I will not be able to understand unless someone explain it to me... So now just have to wait for my boss and peer to be more free.. then they can explain it to me... Anyway this singtel offer is a one yr contract... I may have other plans other than this singtel job... we shall see ya! haha... I am a troublesome and frequent minded person... hee

Think thats all for now... will post more stuff about my work and my collegues when got time ya... :)
