Drooling......

Been spending these few days doing these:

1. Project discussions (countless and endless projects, even though i only have 3 modules this sems! why why tell me why!!!)


2. FYP, deadlines near, better buck up and not disappoint my group mates....


3. writing resume and sending them.... finally got my ass on the chair the wrote a simple resume...... did some very very last minute application for a P&G job, and gonna send Maersk one as well..... quite lucky, i did not manage to write a resume and send the shipping giant the last time (by 2nd), but glad it actually send me an email, asking me to try sending it one by the 6th....heehee..... given another chance!


4. Personal assignment, lots and lots, reflections journal (for my cross cultural module), e-commerce assignment (personal and group). haha, for my previous reflections journal, though having interacted with many many ppl from diff nationalities and culture, i couldn't exactly pinpoint one that i have deep impression of (the frenchmen who stayed in my hall, yoshi and shimpei from japan who went to AJC for an exchange, alex from UK, the cute german guy in my group, my relatives' filipino maids(?), ah tiongs whom i had a not-so-pleasant steamboat dinner with, the flamboyant italians i met at the italian festival and many many many more........) thus i found it hard to write one that is out from my personal experience.........and so what did i do? hahaha.....cook up a story lor...... and i got A+ for that assignment ok........

its a story abt ku chye kueh (yesh, the teochew glutinous rice cake with smelly chives veggie inside) and a german exchange student call marc. why marc? well i have a friend from aj who's half-german half singaporean, his name is marc, juz take this chance to commemorate the funny guy who's now studying in london...... and i linked this fictitious story to real-life application of cutltural knowledge and sense making......... SMART!


5. Prez and quiz yesterday.......


aiyoh, busy lah..... btw i mentioned abt asking for a pay hike rite? and i got the ans....... hmmmmm, my sup explained the pay structure to me in detail, and guess what? my pay is actually abt $6.80 per hour, the 80 cents goes to my CPF and the best thing is that i do not have to contribute my share as my pay doesn't reach $500 per month........i din know that the employer contri to my cpf in the first place.......ok, misunderstanding cleared. and i'm gonna work in a french fair (trade or consumer i dunno) in mid march, hmmmmmm.... sounds interesting..... had fun in an italian fair last yr while working in unilever, marketing the "italy's number 1 olive oil brand" Bertolli ......heehee......

(bloody hell, have this problem scanning a pic using my sis epson stylus 3-in-1 printer........ screw epson! its the worst and most un-intelligent printer i've used so far, even worse than the always-break-down HP printers (had 2 or 3 HP printers before, all down within a year or two, juz as terrible as its pc and laptop which hang very often and my first printer, scanner and pc are from hp, what a letdown...), and the Lexmark which suddenly broke down, giving wierd loud noises) and this lousy epson comes with a manual that is as useless, limited info in a piece a paper....... not that i love reading manuals, juz that i have no choice but to read it to figure out how to make it work....... argh...irritating.....



irritating issues aside, here's a treat for yr eyes.....



my "managing ppl across culture) team mates...... clockwise from me: me, shuzhen, jackelyn, shijia and andre, the german..... is he cute, my group and other girls in the class think so..... heehee, they muz be envious of the gers in my group...haha....... dun he look like a cross between brad pitt and Duncan from the pop group, blue?
