7 more weeks to the end of school


The past few weeks have been ultra busy; with full day lessons ( which require me to reach impossibly on time ) and classes that burn into the weekend. Cramping in time to study, star-tutoring, and weekly meet up with friends admist the horrible school schedule took up so much of my energy that i was yearning for my long awaited holidays.


The hols are finally here. But now that i have so much brain juice to spare and nothing that stressful to keep myself busy with ( minue the cells i waste on the olympics; Go china go!) , reality is slowing sinking in. In 2 months ( 7 weeks to be exact), I would have completed my hospitality course at UNLV. Its been 2 years already?


In other words, after 7 weeks this is what's going to happen:


  • I have to say hello to working for the rest of my life!! ( unless, like i always say, i marry an ultra rich husband who can afford to buy me mini cooper(s), make me the VIP at paragon's walk of fame and allow me to play MJ all day long. But then again, we all know that if your husband is THAT rich and buys you that many things it Must be because he is having an affair(s) and you're giving birth to sons for him )

  • I have to start paying taxes and contributing to my CPF

  • My mum is not going to give me allowance anymore. i have to buy everything myself. boo hoo

  • And she threatens to make me pay rent. WTF

  • I bid farewell to weekdays. oh the perks of weekdays shopping :(

  • No more student rates ( can't save on hair cuts, movie tickets, Mc Donalds ...SHIT)

  • A thorough change in my wardrobe. ---> i hate G2000 i hate G2000!!

  • Lesser time for family and friends??

i'm not going to think further, because i'm starting to feel the room closing in on me. hahhaa...the thing is, i'm pretty bad at transitions. From pri to sec school, sec sch to poly , relationship to relationship, Singapore to china and so on, i take quite a while to get adjusted. This is so not going on my resume ( i just named one of my strengths as being HIGHLY VERSATILE. LOLLLLLL) .

And this transition will by far be the most permanent and one of the most significant. I'm quite sure i'm going to miss school life and I'm really not prepared to leave this comfort zone. plus, i have so many questions, like where i have to settle my internship and what type of job i want to even apply for. I'm not emo, i just feel direction-less. Urgh, does every graduate feel like me, or does everyone know what they want?


I know that in time to come, like the Chinese saying" quan dao qiao tou ji ran zi", when the boat hits the harbour it will become straight? er okay whatever, but anyway, in the meantime, i realize that every single step im taking now is propelling me one step towards a certain future. I sure hope im taking the right steps in the right direction.


Well, everyone has to start working one day. And i guess, that horrid reality is going to come true very soon for me. So for now, i'm going to cherish my remainding 7 weeks of school and make use of every student privilege available to me. hahhaa



* I pray that God will help me find the right path
