Felt super nervous as I went for my attachment at Singapore Management University today. I don't think I made a very good impression on the people there. Know too little. There was some mix up with the admin people. Apparently, Temasek Polytechnic didn't confirm with them about the attachment thing. So for the first hour or so, I was brought back and forth from the business building and the admin building. Finally got settled down at around 9-ish... Kelvin, my 'boss', told me to go grab something to eat before he would brief me. Called Lynette with my handphone around that time and whined to her... I was so jittery that all I heard from her was, 'trust God' and 'pray'. So I did. Felt better so I went to eat 'char kway teow'. Noticed that there were A LOT of girls in SMU... made me less nervous. *grins*
Went back to the office where Kelvin told me to write down my skill sets. I didn't know what to write cos, to me, skills me something that you're good at. Yah... So I had to think hard. Got interview by the lady boss where she asked me what I wanted to learn from the 3 months and how they could help me to go out into the working world next time. I took quite a while to think before I finally answered with all honesty, 'I just want to learn what the working environment is like. I don't know what exactly I want to learn but I know I'll try my best.' After she asked a few more questions, I told her, 'To be frank, I really don't see a future for me in I.T. I don't think its my interest. But I will try my best to do whatever you guys throw at me. (Not a very good thing to say, I know)'
So I spent the rest of the day doing a corporate website design. I have this feeling that they're somewhat disappointed at how little I know. But I guess its a learning experience. I don't think they'll fire me? hahah...
Went to Ziig's house after dinner to learn some web design stuff... Can't wait to try what I've learnt tomorrow. I hope I don't see that disappointed look on Kelvin's face again. It kinda bugs me...
Thank God for answered prayer. Felt a sore throat coming last night. My throat was itchy and I coughed a few times. Thoughts about sharing that can of Coke with Gan came to mind. He had a flu I think? Prayed against it in my sleep. I dunno how I managed to do it but I did. Felt fine this morning! Praise God!
::: Lyric of the Day :::
Take your head around the world
See what you get from your mind
Write your soul down word for word
See who's your friend, who is kind
It's almost like a disease
I know soon you will be
Over the lies, you'll be strong
You'll be rich in love and you will carry on
But no - oh no
No you won't be mine
Take your straight line for a curve
Make it stretch, the same old line
Try to find if it was worth what you spent
Why you're guilty for the way you're feeling now
It's almost like being free
And I know soon you will be
