Soon my working life will come to an end. 9 April to be exact. For the first time, I wish there wasnt a public holiday. Good Friday means less money for me to earn before I start working in the army for around 50 cents or 1 dollar per hour sianz. This compounded by the fact that Dear is not coming back from Japan till 11 April makes my holiday even more meaningless.
But luckily...or hopefully I can meet up with my so long never see friends on that day before all of us enter the green loving camp in Tekong. And I was even awarded the most absentee by facebook comparing friends app LOL.
I still remember me hating to go to work in the first few weeks of my working life then. Envious of those who are born with a gold or silver spoon and do not have/wish to find work. But soon, the envious feelings became my motivation to work harder. My motivation to earn enough money for myself to buy the things I want, to visit the countries I go to and also to marry my dear.
Obviously I am not going to earn enough money now to do all that but everything gotta start somewhere. Which also means that my dream of owning a PS3 is going to wait even longer. Why cant Sony just cut its price!! Lol.
Cant believe I am only three weeks away from my enlistment date. Time passes so fast...the last time I saw most of my friends was when results were being released. Soon my hair will be gone...most of it anyway...and I will look like a 15-16 year old wearing some uniform in a colour so ugly that it should be not called green at all. They should probably come up with a new colour name for it like...sufugly or something like that.
Wonder how my days wil be like when my work has finally stopped...no more waking up at 7 and taking the train to pasir ris then to Tanjong Pagar...no more good food :(((...no more money to earn....but..the best thing is I finally have time to spend with Dear even though we only have like a week free together before her school starts.
By then, most of my friends will be in the army already with only Jon and eugene in the same situation like me. I really appreciate my working life not only becos it gives me money but I learnt quite alot in these 4 short months. How to work and communicate with people, how events are being organised and the importance of EQ in the working life.
How I wish I can get a scholarship...not having to pay over $20 to $30 k of tutition fees is equivalent to saving that amount of money for the future...if only I realised it sooner. But now with a crappy non-academic record and a not good enough academic result I guess scholarships are far and beyond me now.
Anyway enough of all these future stuff, I cant wait to go out with my friends tomorrow!! Miss suaning SJ haha!
And Dear, have a safe trip k. You know how much You mean to me...and I miss You already!! Love You, my wife! ^^
"Cant wait to hold You in my arms again..."
