Yesterday went to Funan to buy my mouse with Geargina. Bought the Logitech MX 500 Optical Mouse from PK Computer. Had minced pork noodle from Marina Square for our lunch. The queue was shorter than that day, so took me about 20 minutes or so.
Walked round Suntec’s City and Marina Square. Saw Lynn working at the Singapore Visitor Center. Those round stalls there is near Esprit. As we suppose to meet Elaine and Benjamin at 5.45pm and we were still very early, we took a walk round Raffles City. The computer shop, Planet E+G is now gone. Below at the atrium they are having some sort of Disney fair. Lots of Disney’s stuffs including the latest cartoon, Brother Bear.
Had a meeting with my client yesterday to discuss about the final changes that need to be made to The Quiet Room and CBT before we upload it to the live server.
As the meeting was quite short, came home after that to take a nap before meeting my secondary school friends at Tiong Bahru Plaza. Long time didn’t been to Tiong Bahru Plaza even though I stayed so near. So many new shops especially the basement 1 and they opened a new branch of Long John Silvers there.
Stayed up till 4am today, and the bloody GV site still doesn’t allow me to book for the LOTR Marathon. The tickets at Cinelesiure seems to be sold out when I went in at around 1am.
Went to bed, set my alarm clock to 9am to wake up and book, who knows when I woke up at 9am, left the 2nd row from the front. I was like “what the fuck?”. 5 hours and almost sold out thanks to the tiny theater that GV assigned the marathon too. They should have it at Great World City Theater 6, where it is one of the biggest theater in Singapore. And special thanks to the fucked up webmaster who didn’t update the bloody database even at 4am where it suppose to go live at 12.01am.
Yesterday went to Sim Lim Square to buy my new computer. Bought it from Fuwell. I don’t know why, but I just kinda like the shop there, my brother computer and some other of my hardwares are also bought from there. My old computer(2.0Ghz) will be selling to my mom office for about $1.5k, and my new computer cost $2.6k exactly, so paid extra $1.1k.

Stayed at home the whole Monday, did nothing productive but I managed to complete Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour GLA side. The missions in Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour are so much difficult compared to Command & Conquer Generals.
Today went for my 18th driving lesson, it was another instructor because my instructor was on urgent leave, and the other was working on afternoon shift. Learned reversing in between 2 poles, it was a very difficult job. But luckily it will not be tested, but it will aid alot in my parking.
Yesterday went to celebrate Li Xiang birthday. It was a belated celebration because her actual birthday was on Wednesday (12th November) and the actual day itself, lots of people is working, thus we postpone the celebration to Saturday.
We met up at 4.30pm at Marina Square. Marina Square is really happening, it was very crowded and I do not know the reason behind it. We went for Kenny Rogers for dinner, they complained that the food there sucks, which I do not really agree with. If you get sick of it if you eat too much, but the food ain’t that bad.
Yesterday went for a lunch steak meal at Sizzler with Geargina. The price is almost the same as Ponderosa. But the salad bar of Ponderosa has more variety than that of Sizzler. Regarding the choices of steak, Sizzler has more unique choices. But overall, I still prefer Ponderosa. Didn’t know that my Popular card can get a 10% discount there, I practically thought that the Popular Card is useless besides being able to use it at Popular Bookstore.
Walked round Suntec, before having dinner at the Marina Square open air foodcourt. Of course, the only motive when going to the food court there is to eat the minced pork noodle! The queue was kinda long, but when you want to eat good food, you have to be patient!
Yesterday went back to school to help my FYP supervisor install our FYP project onto his laptop because he need to show it to the school committee on the following day for marks moderation. Hope can get an A for FYP.
Met up with my group members at Marina Bay MRT to go Long Beach Marina for dinner. It is my treat because I am the leader and the fyp is a successful one, so must enjoy ourselves by eating seafood!
Went for my ITP(Industrial Training Program) Interview at The Alpha, Science Park II. The company is Pi Eta Consulting Company. This company deals with financial risk analysis. 7 of us went for the interview, 4 from our course and 3 from DIT if I am not wrong. Out of 7 they will choose around 4-5 people. The job will be converting the current software which is written in VB6 on Windows Platform to web-based. The web programming language used is ASP and database is Microsoft SQL Server.
I kinda like the working environment, it is at Science Park II, my old workplace is just 2 buildings away which my uncle is working in and my mom’s office is also nearby. So when going to working can go with my mom and after work can come back with my mom. So can save on transportation fees. There is a small canteen in The Alpha and there is a shuttle bus provided by Science Park to Clementi during lunch break.
