Life Goes On...

The word FAT has been haunting me recently. This may sound disgusting but I’m deeply traumatized by the amount of weight and fats that I’ve put on. Arrrhhhhhh, it’s depressing me so much that it’s forcing me to wake up at 6am to jog. But, this once a week kind of thing doesn’t seem to have much effect on me. But given my current schedule, that’s the best I can do. How I miss the good-old-slim days! The exchange for no late nights, no clubbing, no smoke, no noise pollution, no drink-till-i-puke and no dance-till-3am is fatness and more fatness. But again, I think I’m healthier now (hopefully) cos when I used to party till morning, I’ll usually only wake up in the afternoon or evening, and would have missed breakfast and lunch, leaving only a meal a day kind. And one doesn’t really have too good an appetite given that kind of lifestyle. Well, I guess I just have to workout more now. And snack less in office. People tend to eat very good food if they work in town. Just last week, Kel and Guojian went with me to Sakae Sushi at CPF Building for dinner. I had buffet while they watched me eat and were so amused about it.

It’s time I do something before I start ripping all my clothes apart.

Friday was Junming’s last day of internship. He’s from NTU and has applied for special term. We got him a cake to wish him well and… the cake is so pretty!


Front: Kel, Junming, me
(I look terrible! Didn't have enough slp aft
Café del mar night)
Back: Guojian, Zhihao

Can tell right, I’m the only girl intern. In fact, I’m the only intern from Business. Accenture generally takes in more people from engine or computing for internships. But, nvm la, it’s fun hanging out with these guys. They are not the boring kind of people and are good listeners too. I was telling Guojian that he has got the nature that I’ll like (but don’t be mistaken, we are just good friends) – not too passive and quiet, not too talkative and confident, no bad habits, has his views and opinions and are vocal about them, positive about life, humorous, sincere and the list goes on. He’s got a m'sian gf and it’s precisely bcos he’s so nice to his gf that I’m really impressed with him. So I told him if one day he betrays his gf, that’s it, I’ll hate him. But seriously, I have realized that these are some of the traits that complement me well. He’s from China, so I guess sg still lacks guys who can appeal to me. Our recent hottest topic is about hamster.

It has been raining since hamster asked me to join him for gym yesterday morning. I think it’s an indication that I should not meet him, so I didn’t. As I was telling the guys, my perception of him changed totally after the café del mar night. I’m not for a smoker as my bf (social or not) – smokers are not any bad people but to me, they lack discipline, are easily tempted and fall to addictions. First impression of him was really good – he’s cute (baby face la), well-groomed, speaks well, looks serious in his work and bla. And I told Guojian it’s all his fault. If he didn’t stand at that position at City Hall station that night, we wouldn’t have met hamster on the train, he wouldn’t have started a conversation with me, and we wouldn’t have known that we actually stayed so near to each other, and he wouldn’t have asked me to play tennis, and I wouldn’t feel so bad that I rejected him.. I wasn’t even aware of his existence before that. Anyway, he was so mean to Guojian when we took the cab home from Sentosa. He actually told him to sit in front since he’s getting off first, not in a very nice way. Never judge a book by its cover and it requires different settings to understand a person’s true self. Some guys are dangerous to fall for, esp good looking guys. The more he tries to make an impression, the more he tries to make me fall for him, the more I feel disgusted with him. I have been around enough to read a person’s mind. I hope my next week’s 4 days leave for Broadcast Asia will dissolve all emotions somehow. Relationship is definitely not my priority now anyway.

I'll rather focus on doing things that doesn't hurt me in future. We were informed previously that housing is very tight at NYU, so they will conduct a lottery (random selection) for NYU housing.


I’m really lucky if not I think I will be crying my heart out now. It sucks not to be able to experience hall life at nyu, I mean that’s one of the reasons we are going there for. The check-in date for 26th Street residence is 26th Aug (Haha..). My flight would arrive at JFK airport at 10.40pm and a cab down to manhattan would probably take half an hour, so I was wondering if I have to book a hotel for the night since it would probably be too late to check-in the hall. So I emailed the hall manager and surprise, he is so friendly and helpful! There will be a security guard around to assist me and I’ll get to check-in on 25th.


Investment Banking is not offered in NUS so I’m really excited, though I would have to work hard to refresh my maths for Options and Futures which is definitely going to be really challenging.
