It's June le...

Eh... so fast June liao >.<" Time really passes very quickly... It will soon be the end of the year le. Anyway, I'll just do a very quick re-cap of the events that took place last week.

Monday
Went over to Beach Road for lunch, wanting to eat the 辣椒面 but it was closed for holidays. So my friend and I ended up having 炒果条 instead. Not bad leh... not oily and got many many the vegetables. Walked over to a dunno what art gallery after that to view an art exhibition put up by the graduating NIE trainees. A fellow practicum friend, Dass' works were the least abstract of them all... so I could still appreciate what he drew. The rest of the exhibits and drawings were totally off-frequency. Met a teacher there as well...

Walked over to Suntec after that for the World Book Fair, hoping to get some good buys, but there wasn't really much. Ended up getting a tub of artificial sand that has the same characteristics as playdough. No need to go to the beach to play with sand liao... Ha. Anyway, walked past G2000 before reaching the convention halls and with the Great Singapore Sale in place, I got for myself 2 casual working shirts and 2 casual shirts. Quite a good buy... an additional 20% off the final bill when I used the POSB Everyday card.

Tuesday
Nothing much... went over to my cousins' place as usual for tuition.

Wednesday
Met up with a few of my practicum friends for dinner at Holland Village NYDC... I had a "Romeo and Juliet" baked pasta. Quite a huge serving... I don't mind going to NYDC for pasta. Ha. Had a nice chat with them. The only female practicum friend brought her boyfriend along. It's good to make more friends.

Thursday
Ah! Attack of the rice weevils. Zzz. What happened was that during one of my Maths lessons in NIE in February, I brought small plastic bags of rice to school for my microteaching lesson. I happily thought that nothing would happen if I left the stuff in the A4 paper box in my room. However, the rice weevils that came with the rice proliferated... to the extent that I started finding rice weevils crawling around all parts of my room. Well, it took me a while to realise that the box was the source of the weevil invasion. Got quite a shock when I opened the box... Ha. Anyway, spent a good half an hour clearing up the box and catching and drowning all the rice weevils that could be seen crawling around >.<"

Went for tuition after that... had pizza for dinner. Heh

Friday
Met up with an insurance agent who is a friend, to help another friend get insurance, since I am rather "in-the-know" about how insurance works and the existing plans in the market. All the experience came from meeting so so so many financial planners and insurance agents previously. I need to learn to be nasty and decline any future "invitations" for financial planning. I don't have anymore finance to let people plan liao.

Went to watch Shrek 3 after that. Totally hilarious. Ha. I think it was a nicely done sequel. Highly entertaining =]

Saturday
Met up with my cousins and my aunt for dinner at AnchorPoint's Secret Recipe. The food is ok, but the service was rather bad. The restaurant manager the face black black de. Zzz. Saw another teacher there as well. Go anywhere also can meet people. Ha. Anyway, had a good chat with my cousins.

Sunday
The day was spent sleeping... for a good big portion of the day, followed by tuition at my cousin's place. Am helping him settle his stuff and prepare for the 'O' levels which will begin in early October. So much to do, so little time... lalala. Filing took two sessions le... and I''m still trying to do some planning and consolidation of whatever resources he has, so that he can start revision real soon. Lots of catching up and practise in the queue.

Random
I've been a little hooked on Warcraft 3 these days. I've always been interested in strategy games and I copied the installation from my cousin just over a week ago. Been playing quite a bit for the past week. Holidays mah... must learn to relax :P Quite fun lah, but time consuming.

The only thing with playing such games these days is that I do not have the time and energy to follow the storyline of the game. It requires frequent playing to be able to retain information about the scenarios and all that. That's part of the reason why I chose to play Maple Story... no need to remember anything, just brainless gameplay. Oh by the way, I leveled to 120 le... finally =] I do not have the luxury of time to play much after this anyway. A little apprehensive about work. Ha

grape > yea... drown in water lo. Pour water into a cup, then drown the rice weevils.

Didn't scream... weevils are not scary... just irritating that there were so many crawling everywhere.
