Mixture

Last day of school today. This day came quickly and I didn't expect parting to be so difficult. All is good though, I am sure I will go back to visit. 11 months, shuo chang bu chang, shuo duan bu duan.

I remember my first day of school, we had to report at 1.30pm to our mentor and days before I went to the school website to check out who is my mentor and I remember I texted Cheryl saying "omg, my mentor looks quite fierce." Haha, who knew that she herself is special needs. Haha, kidding.

Due to my nature, it is not easy for me to bond with anybody and everybody but it is amazing how I am able to get along with the care team of this school.

Apart from my colleagues, I will miss the students too. Children are really the most innocent people, that is why working with them can be very enjoyable. Although sometimes they frustrate you and test your patience, at the end of the day, you still love working with them. Some are the kids are really so sweet when I tell them I'm leaving. They make leaving so hard too.

Moved my things to my hostel with the help of my brother on Saturday. He keep saying that my school and hostel is damn lao ko. Bought my laptop on Saturday too, Lenovo Yoga 3-14, I got the intel-core i7 because it was the same price as intel-core i5 due to national day sales. Hopefully digitex next week don't have good deals for this or else I will feel damn sad, haha but shall not itchy fingers and go research. I saw the previous it fair brouchures like not much discount for lenovo. I heard they can have very good deals too because Cheryl told me she bought her laptop last year? during it fair and got 300 dollars capitaland vouchers.

I think starting school is damn expensive,  need to get a new laptop, if not for school I can survive with my old laptop since it is only the battery life that cmi. Plus staying in hostel makes it even more expensive, need to buy so many things.

Kettle: $20 + $49.90 (I bought one and my father apparently bought one too...on the same day)
Hostel: $235 per month
Hair Dryer: $49.90 (Actually I don't need and I totld my father I don't need, but he still bought)
Pillow: $18
Bedsheet: $12
Laptop: $1499
Application Charge for hostel: $16
Alarm Clock: ???
Towel: $12
Toiletries to bring to hostel: ???

and the list continues ... Haha that is why I say I have financial stress. Good thing is, I can still afford it. I really don't know how people can buy a flat, buy car, take care of their children/parents etc etc. Really admire them.

Suddenly Singapore 50th Birthday and the Jubilee Weekend is coming to an end. We were so hype up for it and suddenly when it is over, feels so weird.

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE! YOU HAVE COME A LONG WAY AND MAY YOU CONTINUE TO PROSPER AND GROW!!! THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME A PLACE I CALL HOME.
