The One About Being Back in the Rat Race

Ahhh, looks like my days of being a "student" is over, well for the next two months. I start my job at AED as a Tourism Officer (cool title and it'll defo look good on my résumé :-D) on Monday. Am excited and also nervous to get back into the rat race cause life as a student is pretty spiffy (if you don't count the lack of income).

Annnnnd, the weather (knock on wood) is becoming bearable - sunny and breezy! :-) Hmm, I hope there's no such thing as "too much of a good thing" cause I'm loving this. :-D So I'm gonna enjoy this weekend to the max - though that might be hard cause my party crew, well just San hahahahaha, is away this weekend for a friend's stagette. Maybe I'll just party it up by myself. Hahahaha. Nah, will probably just lounge around and lazy it up. Maybe read a few chapters of my Anthro textbook????

Oh yeah, Doris fwd. this to me and it's pretty interesting - definitely not "magic" but it's still fun. I guess mathematics can be fun, sometimes. :-P

1. Key in to your calculator the first 3 digits of your phone number, not your area code
2. Multiply by 80
3. Add 1
4. Multiply by 250
5. Add the last 4 digits of your telephone number (eg. if your last 4 digits is 4321, add 4321)
6. Add the last 4 digits of your telephone number again
7. Subtract 250
8. Lastly, divide 2

Is it your phone number ???

The One About Heaaaaatwaves

Alright, thanks to global warming, it has been a HELL OF A WEEK in the city. Or is it two weeks. Whatever the case, the temp. ranges from 27°C - 33°C for the past couple of weeks and it really does feel like the city is HOTTER THAN HELL!!!!

It was a BLAZING 33°C today (though it feels like 40+) and I started my Linguistic Anthro class. I was sure that I could chill out in an a/c campus/building butttttttt (I should have know cause it's just my luck) the damn a/c broke down on our floor and when the maintenance guy came around to "fix" it, the situation went from bad to worse as it felt like the vents were blowing HOT AIR into the classroom. Just great! :-P It felt like a freaking sauna! On the bright side, all the sweating could lead to me shedding a few pounds. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :-P Anyway, hope everything would be back to normal next week. By the way, it looks like this Anthro class will not be a cakewalk. But, I rather do one term paper than 3-4 book analysis (as I would have been doing if I stayed with the English Lit class).

Speaking of next week, I managed to get a job for the next two months. It's a contract position for AED so hopefully, this will lead to bigger/better opportunities in the future. If not, oh well, at least I can use the $$$ for next semester's tuitions. If she's reading this, a big thanks goes to "C" for hooking me up. I owe ya lunch - but just a happy meal for now cause I haven't got paid yet. Hahahahahaha! JK JK A proper lunch is definitely on me, when you are able to pry yourself away from all your meetings ;-)

I'm getting sleepy - still have a few emails that need replying but will get to them tomorrow or something.

Oh yeah, I had a background/criminal record check done today. It's necessary for AED (and I guess for all gov't positions) and I'm happy to report that I'm CLEAN! Hahahahahaha! Though I was nervous cause what if I had a warrant out on me for something that I'm totally not aware of?????
