Working's finally over! since friday! And i'm free again... how i cherish this freedom! free from the confines of a 9-6 job, waking punctually everyday at 730am, reporting to work by 9, lunch at 1230, and finally leaving on the DOT at 6!!

And its basically that for 5 days... How sian!

The redeeming value though is there's nice ppl ard who made the difference. Same goes for everything that ppl do i guess. Its the company that matters, not the stuff that u actually do. Cos when there's ppl u're comfortable with and enjoy being with, all chores will become a breeze.

Ching asked lately too... 'How come it feels like we 4 have known for a very long time though we were almost total strangers the week b4'...

'Strangers?' Nah. They're just friends whom i've yet to meet b4...

In fact, sometimes i wonder... What is it that makes ppl 'click' and thus form these special cliques, that makes us want to hang out and spend precious time together.

Similarly... Special ppl they are... ter, nick, mei, dee, lena, dor... Everybody's from all walks of lives yet we spend so much time together that it makes me think back on how we actually met and started to speak to each other in the first place. It isn't possible - cos of studies, overseas, gfs, special circumstances etc - to hang out like we did anymore... Whenever we meet again though it feels warm again.

Well for luke, daryll, mun, yv, same as well i guess. Or perhaps u need to have some special characteristic/ability like being able to draw super super well that i'm still damn jealous of, or gifted enough to make kitsch door knobs with tendrils.. erm n which looks like certain part of the body, or having to jump for the fire extinguisher button beside the lift and yet not reaching it, or just being oh.. so...BUSYYY 4eva instead of doing sch work.....!

Oh and back to work... One thing that's been bothering me whl working are my EYES! Worked 'till my vision BBLLLUURRR!! Oh gawd... if there's anything i treasure most, it's my eyes/eyesight! Fortunately!! Today's been much much better already. So thank god.

Frankly speaking, i hate fixed routines such as these... What's with the mundanes of everyday lives that those who adhere strictly to i give my total respect!!!

Hmmm... Many ppl have been asking me since yr 1 the reason behind choosing ID. Well... cos i love designer pdts... and in ID at least, every single assignment you get, its basically a new thing. So at least for working, it's a whole new ball altogether. Besides it helps when you see other ppl wearing/using/enjoying the products u design. Its satisfying! Imagine you can walk up to them and say 'Those... that u are using now... are designed by me...' =) Cool huh.

YET! 1 of the things that bother me is the prospect of designing as a career in SG. Or how grads like us get LOW pay compared to those with degree in business or others, despite the fact that we use up much more creative juices and brain cells than them!! How unfair!!!

Its 2 more weeks to school... Time passes fast doesnt it?

Anyway... I got 4 core mods next sem...

ID2103... Design Studio! ... It's a freaking 2 DAYS per week!
ID2122... Eco-Design... Erm who's carlos montana!

ID2321... Design for Production - Metal.. Yay... SLEEP! hah...
