Took half-day leave today coz of the matriculation. But first, went with my dad to Clementi Central to pay my school fees at the bank. Sigh what a disaster. Seems like I've been getting into disasters there huh? Heh. Well we had to go to the designated OCBC bank lah, but then we ended up at POSB. Then he realised that we were at the wrong bank, so we crossed over and found UOB. Then the bank teller said we can't (obviously) pay there and she told me where to find OCBC. And finally, we got to dear old OCBC, just like what my mum had told us to do in the very first place - "Go to the Loy Kee Chicken Rice coffeeshop, have lunch then, then go to OCBC which is just opposite." Sigh...

OK then finally got to NP Convention Centre safe and sound. Did all the necessary registration and then got cornered into buying a $5 funfair tic...Also found out that it's "compulsory" to do Flag Day (I thought I'd escaped that by coming to poly SIGH)...And worse still, signed up for orientation camp! What was I thinking??? And then I went to look for my dad who was happily at the laptop corner. NP offers Toshiba and IBM. Guess both brands are just as good... but Toshiba notebooks look nicer!! Haha. Oh yeah, if any of you wants to buy an Apple iPod...I can get it for you at $488...if I buy Toshiba. Gotta tell me by this Saturday hor... :) I thought that this was not bad a deal for those who really want to buy, so I can help you if you want.

Last stop was Queenstown Library -- whoa, quite funky eh. Haha. First time there since it was renovated. The computers are iMacs!!! I so didn't know how to use them man. Why the mouse so funny one??? But they looked really good lah haha. All-white. Super funky. Anyway, borrowed 6 books. Don't know if they're really good or not. Certainly hope so! PLEASE, if anyone has a good book to recommend, let me know. I've been so devoid of books in my life for the past few months.
