Well, actually, school starts on June 28. I wonder how I heard that it was July 13.

Got a job through my parents' friend at World Scientific and started work yesterday. Wore my pretty pink shoes but got a blister just 15 minutes into the job!!! Wore sandals today.

My job is to proof-read...right now, it's a book called The Clinical Approach to Medicine. Help me. I was already contemplating quitting in the middle of chapter 1 (chest pain)... but thankfully, I found some positive feelings in me for the job during chapter 2 (hypertension)... Today, I started on chapter 3 (heart disease) but it's such an awfully long chapter - 46 pages - sigh... Apparently there are about 20 chapters. Yeah the work is pretty dry. And you all know that I'm not a science person... hehe. But as I said, I'm quite ok with it already. Thank God for that.

OK anyway, it's just a two-month job. I have my own work cubicle but that's it. No phone, no computer...not even a dustbin!!! Haha~ that's coz I'm just a temp. I enjoy my privacy lah. Yeah man, it's so private that I think nobody really knows what everyone else is doing at any point in time. I, for one, don't even know when my colleagues have left for lunch or gone home! The environment is basically... very... un-happening. Yeah, that's the word for it, haha.

There are buses, apparently, that take you to hawker centres for lunch. Mon & Fri: Bukit Batok; Tue & Thu: Jurong East; Wed: Clementi Central. Otherwise, you can order what's on the menu for that day and I guess someone delivers it to the office at 12:30. Like yesterday, it was mixed veg rice with black pepper chicken so I ordered that. But today, it was...dunno what...seafood noodles or something. So my mum bought packet lunch for me after her BSF and then she brought it to me. So nice of her hor... Anyway, tomorrow I'll get to bring food from home (leftovers from tonight's dinner) - yay -

I already feel like I've worked for a hundred years. Lol. Oh, but one good thing is that I don't have to wear office clothes. I just go in jeans and T-shirt, and bring snacks and mail from my penpals to keep me company. I'm just glad that I'm earning some money on my own. That feels really good. I can save it for my education...or shopping....hehehe... Next time even after I've entered poly, I'd still want to work during the school holidays or something. Time to be more independent man!!! But of course, I'll never ever be a waitress. Ask me to be a cashier, can. Cleaner, uh, still can. But waitress...no way man. My pay will be docked until like dunno what coz of all the dishes that I will break.
