Break or not?

HEY'ALL! YES! Finally, CTs are off the way! (I know I should've said this long ago!) So I'm quite a free bird for the time being, but not for long! Cos' finals' on its way and will be here very very soon! Pffffffft! Of course, I'm currently having my 2 weeks vacation break (though it doesn't really seem like it...) and projects are just booming here and there, imbibing so much time off this period when I'm supposed to be well-off somewhere else... and like, it's supposed to be a break, so GIVE US A BREAK ALREADY! Maybe I don't really have to wait long for the next I guess. I was supposed to pay a little visit to my former-colleagues and friends back at MTI but am just really tied down. ARGH. Time management YES! I've heard things've changed in the Ministry and I really wanna know what's going on. I was pleasantly surprised to receive an e-card from Ena, when I know she's really really busy with her work, yet, she cared to send a greeting over. Thanks ENA!

Heard from Kai Ting last night, after so long! And I was totally flabbergasted when I learned from him that one of my friends, Gan Ann is attached... like FINALLY! (She's 21 and this is her first love!) Oh gosh, I should speak for myself actually! People all around are getting attached but what about me? Where's my love? HAELLLO!!! MY L.O.V.E, WHERE ARE YOU?? OH MAN OH MAN OH MANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!! I'm DESPERATE! Ugh... let's drop this for the moment... BOO HOO. Anyways, I'm really happy for Gan.

Carrying on, Kai Ting's actually having his internship in downtown London! How very cool is that! According to him, Really, it's freezing over there. But when the working hours are on, it's just like dancing on the hot plate, he claims. It's competitive. So much so that he misses his stint back in MTI which ended 3 months ago before leaving for Cambridge again. Now, it's yet another new environment for him, and his pocket's so filled because over there, he only needs to work 3 days just to get the monthly allowance as much as that he got while he was in MTI (it was a pathetic 600) back then. 30 days for 600, just 3 days for that, there. And previously, Lynn told me she got news that the minimum pay students get for temp jobs (like dish-washing or sorts...) in UK, it's 12 pounds/hr. Tell me how terribly high the standard of living is. Yes, I remember ordering a bowl of wanton noodle in London's Chinatown back in 2000, and it cost 13 pounds then. That's about SGD39 for just wanton noodle, no? Hooi yoh...tsk tsk tsk.
