What could I say? I got the job! I'm officially employed as a temp accounts and HR assistant. The pay is rather good for a temp job. However, on account of the considered-heavy responsibilities rested on my shoulders, I guess it is reasonable. The best part of this job being its flexible working hours! Though it stretches till Sept, I could in fact work 4 days per week during my Special sem and 3 days per week when sch re-opens. Nice eh? haha. =)
My first day of work today =) The people there are nice! They even cooked porridge for lunch. hee. Well, actually it was their first time, trying out on home-cooked porridge in the office since the staff whom I'm replacing is pregnant. They wanted to save her trouble of going out for lunch. So sweet right?? We had ten dishes, some of which they brought their own, others bought from market. Though they're mostly canned food, but it was the cosy atmosphere that counts! I felt like I was part of the family in the Academy when we were all eating at the supposedly-meeting-table in the basement. It really warms my heart! And one colleague actually bought for us a cup of chocolate ice-cream for tea break! haha. So nice of her! Hopefully I could know them better as time goes by =)

Cool right?! Oh my goodness, it's DHL Hot-air Balloon! I boarded it in the evening with my cousin, Xiuning. We were soOO suPer excited! We kept taking pictures before and during the ride with her camera. haha. =) The balloon is held at 150m altitude from the ground. Up there, one can see really beautiful scenaries of Singapore. And you would realise how 'neat' and clustered our garden city is! =D Do try to take a ride on the balloon if you can! 2 more days left!!!
After the ride, we ate Katong Laksa. OOh. My favourite. hee. It was long since I last visited the stall at Bras Basah. Then, we shopped! yay! One interesting fact we realised about each other wasour differing tastes. Though we might share almost the same thoughts and looks, we have diverging tastes for clothes. Practically all clothes which caught her attention do not arouse my interest at all. haha. So we decided, when we go shopping for the next time, she could assist my shopping by looking out for clothes that she thinks are ugly; clothes that she thinks are ugly I thought are nice. And it works vice versa. Goodness. haha.
Yearn for the days of innocence
