Sunday...
it's 10pm on Sunday night now...I wanted to blog earlier today but spent more than half the day working...
tomorrow's my first day of work officially...and i have mixed feelings...which is normal...
Aniwaiz...let me continue talking about my EE friends...
bro, saw ur comment...glad we met at NUS... =)
today I started thinking about the latest overseas trip...to Genting...
onli a few of us went...
to be honest, at dat time, i was still often fretting about my results...i had been fretting about it the last few months...and it was causing me to behave slightly irrationally sometimes...like getting irritable more easily...
thinking back, it was so silly...i shld hav tried to enjoy the trip even more without thinking of it...
Although I enjoyed it a lot, it could have been much better...and it was my own fault...
anyhow, after the results were released, it felt like there was a huge amount of pent up frustration which was released together with the results...
That trip was pretty good...first time overseas with some of them...but collectively, it was pretty fun...
i'm looking forward to future trips with them even after we start working!
we have been talking abt a plausible trip at the end of the year...to somewhere nearby like maybe krabi...
not sure whether dat's going to happen...but we'll try to make it happen amidst all our different and busy schedules...

Continuing with my friends...
Meijia...she's my girlfriend...for more than a year oredi...it was by pure chance and fate dat we first met at the pub at clarke quay during Christmas Eve 2005...She accompanied Elysia there (who was invited by Junhui)...and dat was the first time we ever saw each other even though both of us were from NUS EE...
subsequently, in the ensuing semester, we happened to be in the same lab together for a project (EE2007)...and had some opportunities to chat once in awhile about our projects...
The romance factor came in for the first time sometime during May 2006...two months I was due to depart for US for a year...anyhow, to cut a long story short...we got together in earli 2007 when I was still in Philly... =)
She's a very sweet ger who deserves my love and protection...and it will stay dat way... =)
Jiarong...we got acquainted in year 1...earlier than Zhiwei and CS...he was known to me as Junhui's friend at dat time...and started sitting with us during some of the lectures...a quiet guy, he frequently gets teased by us...
but fortunately, he's very sporting and usually jabs back at whoever teases him or just laughs out loud tog...
glad that we have met too...he's one of the earlier ones in this NUS EE clique...one of the pioneers!
CS...he came along with Zhiwei...cos they were always together initially...so when Zhiwei joined us, CS joined together...the most EE-inclined guy amongst us...he was always the person to turn to for technical questions regarding tutorials or assignments...another one of the crazy guys who did the EE2001 project with us...hahaz...
i still rem both of us working on the software and hardware parts...and cursing the circuits or algorithms ever so often...the down times...when the circuits suddenly don work...and the happy times...when everything started working well...
good to see him picking himself up again...
Ting...was a very quiet ger when we first knew her...she came along with Meijia cos they have been close friends since JC although they were schoolmates in RV...in the past, it took forever prompting to get her to speak up even a few lines...but todae, she's so comfortable with us dat she doesn't mind joining the guys alone for ktv (although she was sort of lured there unknowingly, hahaz), join us for the genting trip, play badminton, mahjong, and so on...good to see dat our clique has more gers who feel comfortable with each other...hope it stays tis way...and esp if she can be paired up with any guy from our clique...hee (still quite a number of single guys in our clique...c'mon bros! wat r ur waiting for?)
okie...it's getting a little late...i still hav to iron my clothes...hahaz...
so more on my friends again the next time...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
it feels a little weird dat finally, tmr i'm going to start working full-time...the days of being a student r really over...
i've graduated and am really stepping into the world of the adult...the corporate world...
i had been thinking abit...but decided todae dat i'm not going to think or overprepare...
cos it probably wun work...
i'll just be myself and face the corporate world...
I'm just so so happy dat i've got so many close friends who r taking tis path with me...
my NUS EE clique...ur give me so much more courage! really!
I'm reali looking forward to our regular gathering sessions! =)
