Encapsulating 2010

2010 is reaching its finale real soon, in less than an hour. Frankly speaking, 2010 isn't a really good year for me, fraught with all sorts of uncertainties. But hopefully, it does goes well for my fellow friends out there :)

I think that the first half of 2010 sucks really badly for me. That was the period when I was working while waiting for University admission in August. The worst job experience for me was to work at Polar puffs and cakes as a sales assistant. I felt cheated and exploited when I realised that my pay doesn't equate to what was offered in the contract. I demanded for an explaination and what the company gave was a whole load of craps and ended off with a statement saying 'Sorry, it was our mistake that the contract was typed wrongly'. FML seriously
Adding on to my angsty of having to hold on this job for at least 3 months because of its idiotic probation period was this irritating and unreasonable senior sales assistant that was working in the same outlet as me. She's the first person that I've ever met that made me swear and curse like crazy, she the ultimate! Its not the usual me who will curse and swear, but when I really do get angry and irritated, all the #!*@$%@! would irresistably come out from my mouth. This period of hell ended around in May when I found a new job, and the good news is that I'd be working with Yi Qian :) The saying that sunshine will come after the rain somehow seem true, for I met a bunch of fun-loving friends over at Chungco. I missed those days where we chatted non-stop during worktime and have our daily lunch together! :)

I used to be zealous and excited of taking my first step into the working world when I was in Secondary sch. However, the working world doesn't not seem as simple and fun as I thought it would be. It is manifested with inherently flawed selfish people, and higher ranked people who sets double standard on others. They suck, I hope they will be banish to some isolated island of themselves for the good of the society. Having the luxury to receive an education is certainly a bliss, I realised.

The first half of 2010 also encapsulates the episode of receiving my A'level results, and of course ultimately the result of my University posting.
My results didn't turned out as illuminating, and thus there were constant struggles in planning my future route. Up till now, I'm still struggling with the thought whether getting a Science degree is the best alternative for me. I was seriously fickled during the period when the application for internal transfer was opened.

The saying that friends come and go in our lives definitely hold so true.
Friends that I used to be so close to back in Secondary school and Junior colleges days may seem like total stranger to me now. But of course in the process, I met many other new friends, which mainly comes from my Orientation camp OG and NUS Waterpolo.
Having said that, there were of course friendships forged that still continues to stay by me, and I really cherish these friendships, and hopefully it will last us a lifetime :) Friends like my Bestie Cai Ling, together with my lovely animal friends, Kimberly, Catherine, Ernest and Allan, they are the ones who are always there for me, and I'm always looking forward to the next meetups we're having :) You guys totally rock my life!

The second part of the year somehow seem slightly better, though it still suck.
Many people have said that University life ought to be the best time in your life, but somehow it doesn't hold true for me. I've been thinking all these while after my finals, and I think that perhaps I'm taking life and work too hard during my first semester, hence going the wrong way. I didn't quite enjoy my University life last semester frankly speaking. I eventually succumbed and sacrificed my trainings in exchange for better grades. I attended lectures, tutorials and lab sessions with my fellow chemistry majors, but we hardly, or have never once hang out together after lessons to be more precise. Hopefully things will improve over time, I hope our friendships can dive deeper rather than just being friends on the surface.
Okay yes, that's how badly my life SUCK.

I do not anticipate the coming of the new year seriously, in fact I'm dreading it, just like any year. Hence, you do not see me counting down on the 31st December of every year. A new year to me just literally mean a new set of obstacles to climb over, and of course growing older by a year. It always break my heart to see how age has taken a toil on my parents health, and all sorts of illness acts up when you age.

Alright, enough of all these unhappy stuffs. Wishing all a Happy New Year 2011 as we embrace the start of a new year. May 2011 be a good, and a better year for all :)

the great escape .
