Yeah finally the internet is up and running agn after such a long period of disruption! Didn't intend to go home for the weekends as I thot I will b guai guai mugging in sch, either central or biz lib. I even told louis tt I wun b able to watch movie with him cos i haf a paper on mon n nd to mug for it! but haha =P I fell aslp ytd halfway thru reading lect notes in lib n decided tt enough was enuff! I shd go ahead wid a nice movie aft the 1st paper.

And so I msged louis n told him tt i changed my mind & haha yes! luckily he didn't plan any prog for the nite n was feeling bored too! When I called, he was at Tampines Ikea buying photoframe for his 6-month-sary present for his gf! I went online to book GV max tixs for The Forbidden Kingdom, totally wrong choice even though i love GVmax. Firstly, it was a crap show that gave a lousy interpretation of Chinese Classic Epics and it's so unrealistic to see Chinese speak English during olden days. Secondly, I booked the 6th row sits which initially I thot was alrite but ltr on had neck aches. Tink it's better to get further back sits for GVmax huh!

Oh but the highlight of ytd was none other than a phone call from the brand manager of da big U, offering me a temp position/ internship with their company =( Haiz... The heart-wrenching moment of me having to tell her that I have to turn down her kind offer in the midst of her telling me all about the employment procedure and remuneration etc. and wanting me to start work on tues and tt she will settle all the admin stuff by mon... is so hard to bear! =( I really can't bring myself to tell her that I can't take up her offer. It has always been my dreams (ok not really dream but desire) to work in companies dealing with FMCG(fastmoving consumer goods- a term i learnt fr her too!) such as Unilever and P&G.

Aft tt phone call, I felt really lousy and keep asking myself if I had made the right choice. I would have hoped that they wouldn't grant me an offer so that I dun haf to turn them down but the other half of me will of course hope tt they gif me an offer so that it shows i'm good rite? Ahaha

I could hear that she sounded very disappointed too. Yup could hear tt she was disappointed and AIYA wasted kinda feeling =(

Hmmm but I haf weigh the odds and really feel that I wan some exposure to Corp Comm. Louis was saying that hopefully I will not be used as cheap labour to go gif out flyers etc since such a large scale event will definitely require a lot of part-time workers. Hock was saying that since I have alrdy done mkting b4, it'll b good to gain exposure in other areas. Moreover, the prestigious event will definitely keep me occupied and it will look good on my CV nx time to be part of the organizing team of this "first ever" in Singapore! TRUE =)

It's good that I am facing this prob now cos in future, i may face the same situation and this time round, it will b a perm job tt I'll stay on with for a long time.

Ahaha although well-consoled, I was still somehow affected by it and went home and related tt incident to my dad. He said I did a right choice. =P ahaha i jus need reassurance la really!

Well and so it goes, I've already confirmed my start date of the internship to be next tuesday 29apr. One day aft my 2nd (also 2nd last) paper animal behaviour and my 3rd and last paper nm3219 is more than 1 week ltr on the 6may. I noe it sounds crazy tt i start b4 i finish my exams but I wanna start and end early! Cos they r gonna employ me for exactly 2months n commencement is on 9 or 10 jul. So if I start 29apr, i'll end 29jun and if I start 7may, i'll end 7jul which leaves me a few days for preparation for convo and my US work and travel. Anw if by any chance i need to take leave, I can make up some working days to them and it will stretch my end date later.

Yeap hope that all goes well and may I truly enjoy myself and not regret my decision yesterday night!
