Internship: Week 1
The first week of internship has already changed my body clock to a normal human. Haha..
Wake up at half past six, drink milk–instead of cereal+milk as what I had in the past semester–and read news, prepare myself and go to work at half past seven.
Working hours and travel time is very long to my standard. The classes were 5-minutes walk from my home, but now I spend more than an hour in train and bus to the work place. I used to sit in a class/lecture for 3-6 hours in a day, excluding lunch break and sneak-outs. And now, it’s really nine-to-six working hours with one lunch break. No brunch, no sneak-outs, no donuts, no milk tea. Leaving home when the sun rises and going back after the sun sets is how I feel. Luckily it’s only five days in a week. Oh man…
Nothing much left in a day after work other than two hours to wander around the net or perhaps some chit chat with fellow friends here. Monday to Friday is tiring.
Friends in campus, enjoy your days there! There’s no brunch and sneak-outs when you go to work. Have a really good time there!

You’re right, Lan. Sooner or later we’ll work 9 to 6 everyday. Hehe..
I’m working at two different place. I spend some days at Raffles Place, and some other days at Bedok. The office at Raffles Place offers high flexibility, easy-come-easy-go, grab-any-drink-you-like, and take-a-break-whenever-you-need-it. The other office at Bedok is the opposite; And this is the place which I meant in this blog entry.
I hope you enjoy your last semester there. I miss sneak-out-off-class-for-a-donut and dismiss-earlier-for-brunch in year two and last semester. Hehe..

Timbuk2 like yours is nice and appealing.. It’s in my list, but not gonna buy it anytime soon after realising how much I’ve spent this month on various stuff.
Oh hey, I’m planning to ‘brace’ my teeth! Hahahah!

What did the worm say to the caterpillar? What did you do to get that fur coat?

well, the 9 to 5 job is like that, but i guess since its what we all will be doing when we get out to the working force sooner or later…
your working hours is almost the same as mine, except that i had to overtime more.
Heh.
Don’t they allow you to have lunch or bring food to the office?
