Hey i am finally blogging after nearly 2 weeks. Didnt have the time to blog at all. Anyway, now for the updates! For the past two weeks, i was basically trying to get ready all the stuff for my uni, worked with sachdev as a mystery shopper, played soccer in the weekend, got into a problem with the mind's cafe ppl in the weekend, went for NTU freshman orientation, recieved and planned my timetable for uni and to end it off, did FTT today.

This was all that happened the last two weeks, tt i didnt update cos i was out most of the time, doing all these. Was a freaking tiring period!!! Well last wed and thurs i was very involved in the mystery shopper assignment. What we had to do was to go to all the challengers around singapore and act as if we were customers. We had to make sure the saleperson promoted abt the starshield warranty whenever we asked abt their product tt was above 300dollars. It was damn funny as for the first time in my life, i picked the most expensive electronics tt were sold at challenger outlets and was acting as if i was really gonna buy it. Have to say both our acting was quite gd that the salesperson didnt have any clue abt who the hell we were. But yea the job was so tiring cos of the traveling part. The challenger outlets were all spreaded across Singapore and we had to travel huge distances to reach another outlet. And tackling three diff salesperson for each outlet for three diff items and also checking out on their names without them knowing it was very challenging. I and sachdev actually shared the salary as it was actually a one person's job. But yea nvm, its a new experience.

Saturday i actually went to minds' cafe and got into a problem with the ppl there. Cos my fren actually booked a table for 8 at 6pm. And he did clarify with the ppl whether the reservation will be cancelled if we dun come in time. They actually told us that it wun be cancelled and it doesnt matter when we came cos, as long as its reserved, its ours. But guess wat, when we went there, we didnt have a table for us. We waited for some time until we got a table for only four. We had six then. We kept waiting and couldnt get any other table. So i was freaking pissed. When i confronted the counter, he actually threw the blame at me sayin that i came late and thats why we didnt have table. Firstly, that piece of crap didnt call us when we didnt turn up on time. Secondly, he gave me a stupid reason tt we would only get a table as wat we reserved for if all our 8 frens turn up. Wats the use of a reservation then. And if that was the case, he actually gave two ppl, a table of six when their frens were not there yet. I dunno wat he was thinking. Well, maybe he jus dun want my colour ppl to get any table there. I could sense the unfair treatment there. And he actually said we could leave if we didnt like the place. And when i demanded for his manager or boss, he actually said that he runs the outlet. I was jus shell shocked. He kept giving that stupid smile whenever i argued with him that i got so sick of, till i actually left the place without harming him. Its the outlet at Dhoby Ghaut by the way. Fucked up service. Anyway, we went to the one at bugis after tt. Which was the total opposite in terms of service. We should have jus gone there first. Haiz. Nvm had a great time at the bugis one though. Was damn fun and hilarious.

Soccer was at Anderson sec on Sunday! WE played against a group tt was full of 30yr old ppl. They even had a grandfather. I played as a right wing this time and kept running throughout the entire match. I did my part for the first half by creating chances. My second half was weak, i would say. My team did play better for second half though. But we didnt capitalise on the first half when we got the lead. We were jus lacking something tt day which i dunno wat. Cos it was really a game tt we should have won. But we didnt. First half was 2-2. Second half the opponents scored one more and won us. I was pretty discontented cos we deserved to have won the game. Nvm shall prep for next match and do better.

I finally got to see my timetable for uni this week. It is actually quite slack. Jus tt my monday is quite packed. And i actually want to drop my econs. But at the rate the other electives re being taken up and not having any more vacancies, i think i would rather stay with something tt i know. But guess wat, i am not happy with the 8.30 lectures in the mornings. Seriously, its a pain in the ass. So fucking far and i have to wake up exactly 2 and a half hrs to be on time for the lectures. Which means i have to wake up at 6am. Oh nooooooo! I cant wait to get my driving license. Seriously. It would cut down my travelling time and increase my sleeping time by lots. But yea, for a few more months, i have to manage with these i guess. So sian. That day, on wednesday, i actually went to the Freshman orientation. I was damn depressed to find out that i was the minority of the minorities. Seriously. Firstly, i am an indian which makes me a minority. Secondly, there re more foreigners and foreign indians then locals in my faculty which makes me minority of minorities. No offence to the other races. But yea i feel sad that the local indians are smaller in proportion when compared to the foreigners. Haiz sad sad!!! Hopefully, i could build up my own big grp of frens in NTU, Lucky i know ard 7-8 ppl in the same faculty. Now jus need to add on to it. I think i know more seniors than my own batch haha.

Well guess wat, i passed my FTT which was today, which brings me one step closer to the actual license. Jus tt, my instructor told me to change my membership to the CDC after i renewed my membership at SSDC for another 6mths. I jus wasted 6 dollars for nothing. Haiz. But heard the passing rates at CDC is much better than SSDC and so, its better that i listen to him as he is registered only there. So yea, tmr, i gonna book for TP. Soon, i can drive my vehicle that my dad have given me. Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Hmmm, life is changing big time for me now. Its a new phase of my life now. I cant wait to go Uni and start studying again and keep myself busy. Finally the time has come. I am more eager to go sch after looking at the time tables and modules. Guess uni would be a pleasant experience. Rite now i have nothing else in mind besides that and i feel so free and clear on wat i am going to do. Hopefully it stays this way.
