Xx The end of Year 2 xXHow time flies. Cliche but true. It's the end of another semester and the conclusion of my second year in NP. Another year closer to conscription, what a sinful delight (Not!). Semester exams lie ahead of me and I'm truely not in the "panic" zone yet. Wonder if I'll hit the "
distress" button anytime soon. Lol. This time round, I can't tell if my grades are gonna "slip 'n' slide" or go "through the roof". Hopefully it's the latter though.
Anyway, ExxonMobil decided to drop me from my attachment position for being "Colour Blind" and for "fear that presence of CO2 or other gases in the refinery may trigger an asthma attack". Like please, I may have Red-Green colour deficiency but I can still
see colours. In fact, I don't even know what colour I can't see. I can tell red from green, for "falalalas'" sake. I can see colours, goddammit. It's not like I totally can't see green, unlike Reuben. Lol. Like come on! As if the refinery has coloured knobs and valves covering the entire optical spectrum.
Gases that may trigger my asthma attack? First off, I've not had an asthma attack for 2 years and I have clearly stated that. Secondly, if "other gases" were allowed to leak into the surrounding atmosphere, the entire refinery would've been blown to
kingdom come an aeon ago.
Grah! Whatever. It's just Industrial Attachment. No biggie. Put me in a place where I'd be bored to tears! Why couldn't they state earlier what they didn't want! Now I don't even have the chance to choose a company. Morons!
Bad things aside, I went to
Settlers' Cafe with a few of my classmates yesterday. Played quite a few board games. It was a heck of a good time, really! Wish I had cooler secondary school friends though. I'm just saying what I think. I think I've had more fun with my polytechnic friends than with my secondary school friends. Well, it might be 'coz there's hardly any contact with them anymore. I mean, how many outings have my clique had for the past year and how many of those outings did we actually "have fun"? I'm sure I can count the former with my fingers and I might not even need any fingers for the latter. Just my frank thoughts, or maybe I'm just disconnected.
Anyway, the most entertaining game last night would have to be that 'Barn Animals' game called
Snorta!. Hahaha. Totally hilarious. The main objective of the game was to get rid of the cards on your hand as fast as possible. Elena's reaction was so slow! Lol! The cards in her hand was maybe 5 times thicker than any of ours. The balancing game was pretty fun too, especially when you could use that "slapping stick" to smack the loser! Uglydoll was the other highlight last night.
That's about it. Nothing much happening the past 2 weeks. It's just clearing the deadlines for all assignments. Today's the last day of school. I didn't attend today's lesson 'coz it was just TPFF revision. I think I should be able to do the questions in the revision paper. Exam officially starts off next Friday with EM3. Horrible module! Hahaha. Alright la! I have to go complete the Lab PBL, yet I see none of my group members online. =/
Till next time, Au revoir!
