End of Break Review
Thursday, June 26, 2008

With school starting soon and a looming end to my 9mths break, i guess it's a pretty apt time to run through all that i've done in the last 9mths. 

I guess i would say i've done lots, and found out more about myself in this period than another time in my whole life. To date. And of course, spent more money than i've ever did in my life.
And im proud to say that i've done everything, or at least started out on everything that i've set out to complete. Guess that gives me a pretty decent hit rate on my TO DO list.

So here's a breakdown of stuff i've done:

I've travelled fairly widely(and spent lots of my hard earned army savings):

1) Europe (UK and Italy) in Jan. - Watched liverpool at ANFIELD
2) NZ with the Odac peeps in Feb Mar - insane outdoor fun
3) Eco Ex-Capade with the Odac peeps in May - Some Adventure Race in malaysia
4) Bangkok with the guys in June - Shopping galore. yes guys shop too..

Worked at:

1) Vox Productions - an events company where i was worked to death with miserable pay. But this is the place where i had the MOST FUN and met the most wonderful bunch of colleagues.  It's the place where i got exposed to more of the world and got to meet pple related to my future industry. Thanks Celine for intro-ing me!
2) Pure Cat - an insanely boring place where i made calls after calls. i hated the job and had no job satisfaction. despite the drawbacks, it was good money and my colleagues were all of around the same age. No problems with communicating there.
3) Random one off jobs here and there for various events.

Other things that doesn't really fall into any particular category. (Or rather, stuff that im too lazy to bother with compartmentalizing):

1) Passed my driving!!!! woooooo.. after 2 trys unfortunately
2) Started Dance Classes - at studio wu.. just for fun.. it was a cheap and good deal though..
3) Helped org and plan various birthday parties of my friends! - i must say it really took a great deal out of our time but it was worth it seeing all the smiley faces!!!
4) Learnt a little jap? - though i stopped tuition from yiling after just one session. No time la yiling... haha
5) Improved my skills on photoshop!
6) read pretty much! until erm.... yes time again.. no excuses
7) made many new friends =)
8) got MFF going. it's the business i have going with the guys. things are looking better and we had our first successful event just yesterday. This deserves a dedicated post so more on that next time.
9) Partied like i've never done before.
10) Exercised!!!
11) decided to join OSIM triathlon next year. 
12) made $800 bucks on my first stock Investment - i do wish to have more time to learn more though)
13) attended NAC
14) Got myself a MAC BOOK PRO (which burnt another big hole in my pocket)
15) got myself BRACES
16) discovered more about what i want and what i should do
17) visited an advertising agency
18) got a small subsidy for school from some scholarship
19) many many more which i cant remember right now...

All in all, it had been a relatively amazing and satisfying 8mths.

What i really need to sort out now.
- pack my hideous room.
- prepare for school, orientation and stuff
- carrying on with my daily routines
- tie up loose ends here and there
- MFF
- do up more of my contact list.
- meet up with people before school starts
