Saturday. The initial plan was, to go for MCYS briefing (in the morning), come back, and do my readings.

In the end...

I have to meet YY for lunch at TPY Lor 1, because she conveniently made me her official photocopying machine by asking me to make copies of her application forms and some emails to pass to her BY TODAY!

Not that i minded, Lor 1 is only 10minutes away from MCYS and i needed a lunch kahki anyway.

Then after lunch, we decidedly head off to our old office at JSSC. Because i gave the idea that "Hey, its Saturday, theres Band! Let's visit them and hear them Jam!" What supposedly was the planned short visit then turned out to be an incredibly long and fun "catching up" session with the boys, coupled with games of Pool (of which i lost every single 1 of them >.<"), chats and band songs.

Finally left at around 3plus to head out (again) to Raffles City, answering Hwee Ping last minute call-out for a meet-up. And i am amazed at how this girl arrange to meet with her friends. She said "Meet Town", so where is "town"? I simply assumed we were going to meet at City Hall, since i suggested going to the career fair. But no, she SMS to ask me where we meeting, and i was like "Not City Hall meh!?" Lucky she didn't complain.

Waited for her at Bread and Toast (i think i laughed too hard with my youths, until i became super hungry again, so i went to eat). So while waiting for her, i chatted with Kuang Hong over the phone regarding "yesterday". She arrived, stole my bread (no lah, i couldn't finish) and we left for the fair.

It was somehow a lucky thing that i visited the fair again today. Because yesterday when i went and wanted answers about career as a Prison Officer, only the HR people were around (i think coz its Fri and they thought it a waste of resources to place more people there), and i really don't think they know much about experiences of the trainings the officers go through.

But today was different, they have a couple of REAL Prisons Officer and he could better answer my questions of the job. => And Hwee Ping was interested too, so she asked questions too, and i learned.

After the fair, we wandered around and i suddenly had the urge to catch a show, so we ended up having a quick dinner and caught "The Pursuit of HappYness", the show by Will Smith. I think its a nice and touching show, but overall depressing... I cannot imagine the emotional traumas he is going through, but neither could i not agree more when he had to put his young son through the same hardship as him when he could live with his mother instead. I also can't believe why under a situation where he was facing bankruptcy, tonnes of bills on the table and a leaving wife could he still decide not to look for a "normal" job and rather choose to sign up as a salary-less stockbroker trainee which could truly end him up as a "broker".

Well, i wouldn't know if my choice of his would have ended up with the same success he enjoyed, but under THAT circumstances, i reaaallly would find a job.

Anyway, after the movie, we bumped around a little more while she went on to buy 2 necklaces (supposedly her way of congrating herself for passing her goddamn psy paper), and we went our separate way. By then i was quite shag already, having woke up at 8.30am this morning.

But a very productive day i call it! Although, in the end, my readings is still neatly resting on my shelves.



Moral of the story: Don't plan your day. =p

(Side-track: I decided to remove "Comments" and the "ChatBox" on this blog. Because even with my over-zealous prompting to friends who visits my blog to "Say something" and to ALL my invisible (read:unknown) patrons who pop by to read my whining entries, no one says anything. So... i better remove it, it just made me looked pathetic. Contact me if someone actually wanted it back.)
