Believe it or not? I actually spam call Tse Yun more than fifty over times before I could get her to crawl out of bed. In the process, my handphone battery nearly went dead and we missed the first service. I got to Suntec City in time to queue up for the second service and reserve a seat for her and myself while she cabbed down. The message seemed longer than usual and we caught many people dozing off.
The "RSAF Open House" was an eye opener. I went there to meet my father and he took me through the exhibitions and told me many interesting facts. Being a pilot is so cool, as you get to fly sophisticated aircrafts and operate on the most advance weapons. At the same time, you are protecting the country. I really cannot wait to go for the pilot trials once I graduate to book myself a place in the air force.

First day of work. After reporting for work and going through the interview and orientation, I was transferred to my table. My bosses left me in charge of the department as one of them was away on a business trip, while the other was on a week’s leave. Both of them will only be back the next week or later, so I was left to hold the fort.
Being a responsible employee, I did all the work that was assigned to me before packing up the office as it was in a complete mess. By lunch time, everything was neatly in place. I cannot believe that I took less than half a day to pack the office which does not belong to me, and take forever to even start packing my own room.

I practically had the entire day off no doubt being in the office. Boredom started to kick in after I found out that the administrator of the company’s server disabled all the game sites that I could think of, and worst of all, MSN. Since there was nothing I could really do, I started reading up on the health benefits of certain kinds of food on the internet. It was utterly boring and my eyes started tearing, but I gained substantial knowledge and I plan to drink more green tea because of the long list of benefits it possesses. Unsweetened green tea is good for you people, especially those who are dying to lose weight.

I brought two magazines with me to work just in case I need them to help me kill time. Anyway, with regards to the magazine, they never really made it out of my bag because I just found out that reading other people’s blog was actually quite interesting. On another note, I found out that the radio on my table was functioning properly so I tuned it to my favourite radio station to put some life into the room since I am the only one occupying it now.

My bosses started assigning work to me via the telephone and I realised how busy I can really get when there is work for me to do. Still, I managed to complete all my work just before six in the evening.

The radio played some really nice songs while I watched the “Happy Tree Friends” episodes on the computer. I really pity the cute characters in the episodes, but the show is rated as cartoon violence so you should understand what will happen to them. Anyway, I completed watching all the episodes by the end of the day. On the flipside, I called up some customers and suppliers to get my job done for the day.

I paid a visit to my secondary in the morning to see how the scout camp is going along. After that, I travelled down to my school to run and go to the gym with Mou Wei. I really exercised a lot in the gym, spending about one hour and thirty minutes there before heading down to town to look at some sports apparel. I only came home in the evening because Chester called me out to go shopping with him for some clothes, so I extended my shopping trip. This is the first time in so many months that I went Orchard to shop, due to the fact that most of my shopping is done in City Hall.
