Accepted le
I woke up early this morning despite sleeping late the night before. Went down to MOE to attend a briefing with regards to the details of accepting the job offer and thus becoming a trainee teacher in the process. Well, I've accepted the job offer le, which means that I will eventually go and teach. Heh. Ehz, will be teaching Physics and Maths at the secondary level. Will the MOE interview that I went for a few weeks be the first and last "official" one that I'll experience in the whole of my life? Ha, I dunno... it just feels weird.
Anyway, shall write more about today later in the night. Will be going out soon. Anyway, here's what happened yesterday.
Ehz, didn't sleep much. I met up with my HYP supervisor and two of his colleagues at GIS in the morning at about 11am. Ah, considering that I haven't really done much in the past month, my supervisor's behaviour can be categorised as over-friendly... maybe it's because he wasn't around for quite some time as well. Anyway, more work to be done... and I finally found out why my calculations for the previous assignment was wrong. I didn't have the relevant information O.o Oh well, I've gotten it now... Hopefully I'll be able to get it right this time.
After the consultation, I went over to the NTUC FairPrice near my place to do some restocking. Decided to try cooking spaghetti for lunch... so I bought the noodles and a bottle of the normal tomato spaghetti sauce. Ehz, quite ok ba, considering that I cooked it in the same way I cook my instant noodles. Just spaghetti with tomato spaghetti sauce. Just like instant noodles with the soup base. Ha. Oh well, must learn how to cook... if not ah, always eat not-so-nice food when I'm alone :P
Did a bit of HYP stuff, then napped for about 15 minutes. But 15 minutes was enough for a dream... Ha, yep, dream again. Ehz, cried in my dream. It's quite stupid. I dreamt that someone close in my family was dying. Haiz, can't even have 15 minutes of peaceful sleep :/ Hmmm, went down to The Esplanade to collect a pair of free tickets to one of the performances in August. Ehz, got it because I was one of the first 55 to sign up or update my details for my Esplanade Youths account I think.
Came home, switched on my computer and logged in to mIRC. Well, drama again, this time involving the restocking system of the main shops in Neopets. Ok, a brief description of what happened. Normally, the main shops will restock at the start of the minute (if there are any, since restocks take place at an average of one per eight minutes) and the shops will restock all the items immediately, with the first main shop restocking at about 00 second of the minute, propagating to the other shops, the whole process taking less than 20 seconds I guess. One can easily buy items by waiting at a shop for the correct time and refresh only once to see all the new items.
What happened was that the system changed at about 5pm... to one which required one main shop to finish restocking before the next one can restock. What's more, the items did not appear all at once, but were staggered over perhaps one minute for each shop. The people who were in the mIRC channel were typing out the shop numbers of the shops that were restocking once in a while. I think I shall term it as "chasing the restock", since we had to go from shop to shop to buy items during a restock. So, if I wanted to buy something from a shop while it is restocking, I'll have to keep refreshing the page and grab the thing I want. Super tedious. Fortunately, it reverted back to the old system by the time I got back from giving tuition.
Ehz, yar, tuition in the evening, then home. I spent some time playing Neopets though. Yet another day closer to the day when school reopens for the new semester...
