Time for another update, i guess.
Starting from 18th of January. The day i went back to school. As said last time i am to return to Millennia Institute to give a motivational talk to the graduating students.
Reached the school at around 740am, 5 minutes earlier than the allocated time. I kind of missed the bus trips to school, somewhat. Went to the general office to notify the school personnel, then went up to the second floor, outside the staff room. It appears there are others who had reached already. 2 girls, one from the 03 batch (Wow) and another from 05. Both of them are kind of professional, as in they seem to be in the teaching job already. It makes me feel kind of embarrassed. Why ask us, the newly graduated batch when they could have asked more professional graduates. Tong arrived shortly after, slightly alleviating my situation. We proceed to the lecture theatre and Hui Ying joined us.
After Mr. T, the science departmental head gave an opening speech, we just started the Q & A session, effectively NOT following the time-table. Tong and I are the ones who gave most of the opinions. I had a lot more to say, but it's not good to hog all the air time to myself.
Left the school after that, not before receiving a souvenir: A notepad.

I'm like jobless for a week now, and the method i'm trying is not really working. Looking for a job with the internet can be rather fruitless at times. Sometimes it's either due to lack of experience required, or simply the job is at a place too far for comfort. I know that i'm picky, but if it's possible i'd want to find something i can stick with until the end of March.
I guess i'll try the job-finding service in Jurong East next week.

After some thoughts, i decided that it is finally time for me to quit playing cards. Reason is rather simple, and logical. The current meta-game has grown and differ so much from the ones i'm used to, that if i am to keep up, i'll need to spend a hefty amount of fortune to do so. Is it worth it?
Years ago i might nod and agree, but not today. Not today when i have been through the pain of working. Sure, it's not stopping me from buying entertainment consoles (I have made plans to purchase a XBox 360 or a second PSP for my brother), but i feel at the very least, that cards are something i have grown out of and i can give them up now.
Hence, i sold them off today for 330 bucks (There are people who plays in hardcore manners). Every single useful card i have.
This is not the first time i said i wanted to quit. I believe the reason is that everytime i said i wanted to, i don't sell everything. I kept some amount of cards with me, as though anticipating a return. This time, i swipe everything. I doubt i'll be going into the line of cards ever (Maybe except for playing in the PSP/DS).
Cool, i instantly have enough for a XBox 360 or a PSP. Or i can just save them up for future plans.

Alright, music treat for today:
Sinful Rose - Tsumi no bara - Disgaea 2 Opening theme
A poisoned apple, to those who stand in the way
It's the strategy, as promised
Betrayal and the like doesn't feel so wrong anymore
As the undead butterflies dance 'round with their black wings
Dance, you fools! In this banquet of massacres
Dance till your petals flutter away
In the sweet garden, staging the night of the samsara
Beckon the prey and drive 'em crazy oh sinful rose
Give mercy to the beasts
With a cleansing that would make even God suspicious
Your deceitful words are like a poisonous spider's trap
Aim for the little sheep with your illusions drenched in sin
Kiss the fallen angels with your corrupt lips
It's reality - no matter how unjust it is
Throw away the mask of common sense and enter the world of ecstasy
Choose the sacrifice for tonight oh sinful rose
While playing the twilight melody, "Rather than my crumbling destiny,
I just believe in only myself", that's the rose's truth
Dance, you fools! In this banquet of massacres
Dance till your petals flutter away
Throw away the mask of common sense and enter the world of ecstasy
The sacrifice for tomorrow (beckon the prey) drive 'em crazy oh sinful rose
This song became one of my favorites really quickly. I hope you like it as much as i do.
