.cheap thrill.
At the library course reserve studying alone and the phone rang.
I looked at my phone screen and I saw " Deloitte " .
My heart thumped and beat damn fast. I picked up the phone, and DAMN, no reception!
I was damn anxious already. I was waiting for the call again....... and it did came after two minutes.
I closed my eyes and was prepared to hear something negative.
" Hi Gavin, Deloitte is pleased to offer you an internship in Corporate Finance. Are you willing to accept the offer? "
Goodness. Damn happy.
Honestly, I didn't expect myself to be so happy actually.
Now, I don't have to worry over what to do for my summer holidays.
The rest, I hope yours went well too!

.school finally starts.
I feel like I am gonna through another phase of my life.
Going through all e events that happened these days, and they caught me thinking how much I actually need to improve as a person.
I need to learn to have more faith and believe in myself. I need to be more firm. Talk confident and not falter because of my short tongue. Stop panicking all the time. Less crap and more steady. I need to strike a balance in how I deal with people and to list down my priorities and act upon them. ( yea, did them already! ) Also, I have to learn to be myself and not rush into things too quickly. I tend to be damn pressurized if I find myself not knowing as much as what my peers do. I have to curb that because I shouldn't expect too much of myself sometimes. And to know that I am not useless and believe that I DO have something to offer to people.
Somehow, I was motivated by what C said in his blog recently about me exceling in everything I did in the past because I was very focused. Somehow, it struck me how I actually lose my focus and determination as time passes. Maybe I am beginning to be weary of life? No excuses man. I am definitely gonna get back to my feet and fulfill all the goals that I have set in the beginning of the year.
So far, my studies have been rather smooth-sailing. At least I get to choose my commitments this time round. No more forced tie-downs or whatever. I definitely see a better me with all these new priorities coming along.
To all my peers who have not been able to find the energy to start studying, come on. Let's all do it together.
Believe in yourself.

.good friday.
life has been rather good after I sold off my darling with much contemplaton. Darling was being neglected, and I was beginning to get sick of her. For the past few months, I felt she was not being put to good use. I no longer need her kind of convenience, so yea, I guessed we had to part. Goodbye. I will miss you.
Taking away all her "jewelleries".
Besides that, I have been leading a really boring night. Just look at the picture below. That was the school library clock, and sadly, I was in school till midnight last week. Now, believe me that I totally have no time for other things.
And every Sunday, I am busy with Frisbee league at Sengkang. Sadly, our team won only 1 out of 3 games so far, but the best thing is, it feels good playing on a Sunday afternoon.
Today, I have been staying at the SMU Pool the whole day. In case you guys still don't know how my working environment is like, this is it. My SMU friends: Yes we have a pool. It's at admin building Level 6. No lift access. Take escalator all the way up.
Quite nice isn't it?
Doing coy law in my cosy office. Rather lonely too:(
And an exciting trip today. I decided to visit the National Library for the first time. I realise our school is really really really very near National Library and Bugis Junction. Went there and nearly got lost. Spent a whole 1 hour there researching about LBOs. At least I managed to get some findings...
But what really excites me was this room:-
First class toilet, isn't it?
