<-- Iron Man ticket.DAMN! Although today i don't have to go to school, i still have to wake up so early just to attend his talk or should i say excursion. The event is about SEMICONDUCTORS, yes you didn't hear/see wrongly. Wafers, huge machines to manufacture them, even machines used to test Nintendo Wii, and many more. It's at Suntec Convention Hall so we reached there at around 10.20am after leaving at RP (assemble point) at around 9.40am. All the way on the chartered bus BENJAMIN 'preached' to me alot of things - about religion stuff, and of course we talked about some other misc. stuff too. He kinda 'kai dao' (enlighten) me for alot of things, didn't knew he was sucha 'deep' person. Haha.
So we were there at the event listening to brief presentations and walkabouts then i asked myself, "Is this really what i'm gonna do in the future? Does this even interest me? How can i try hard enough to convince that this is my passion, my life?" Some of you might wonder that since i don't like or havent like my present diploma, then why in the hell did i choose this course?
Well, i only have 2 words for you - No Choice. I wasn't given a choice, i was rejected everywhere, as in my appeals weren't successful. Even my dad drove me around to EACH poly to ask were there vacancies left in their school. I still remember vivdly the journey, the hope that i clutched on at every poly. Before deciding that i should just accept what was given to me, which is Micro and Nanotechnology in Republic Polytechnic. RP didn't come to my mind at all. Intitally i didn't know RP existed at all... But now, i guess and i hope i didn't make the wrong choice afterall. Didn't regret that much as i did at first. Some people even WISHED that they could come to RP although they have already had their places in their own poly - TP, NYP, NP, and SP. Well, i don't know what to say if you really think that we're really actually having a 'vacation' or 'good life' here in RP. Alright, enough of my unsuccessful appeals and my sad-ed history.
After the event, 'SHY' and me waited for MEI TING to arrive before getting our tickets at Marina Square for IRON MAN. Cool... The effects and stuff were simply awesome. But as what CAVEN(coincidently met him at the gym locker today, he & his friend was just beside me when i was changing la but didn't notice him but his side view looks kinda familiar though) said that it was rather unrealistic. As in the technology and stuff. I think ALOT of them are just simply protocols. To have such high-technology stuff, i think it'd need a few years more. But still, i enjoyed the movie very much.
To those who've watched IRON MAN before, did you stay till the WHOLE CREDITS are over? Cause there's still a scene left after the credits. Which showed SAMUEL L JACKSON, the CEO of S.H.I.E.L.D Organization was at TONY STARK's(Iron Man) house and they seemed to talk about something which i forgot, and MOST PROBABLY will be a 2nd part. When the credits were screened almost all the people left, left with the 3 of us and 1 guy at the lower row seat. We were even discussing if he/she was a human being. Haha. Cause the person doesn't seem to be moving and the whole scenario just looks very eerie. MEI TING went to have a look at the person, but backed out at the last minute. Haha.
When everything ended, then we finally saw the 'mysterious' person. CHEY... It was just a typical business man with a briefcase. Scare yourselves for what sia... Nothing better to do. KIDS! Haha.
So after that, i bid goodbye to them first cause i need to go and collect my pay, which is like a stone's throw away from Marina Square, Pan Pacific. Collected my pay and went to deposit the money. Meanwhile, i saw ANGEL (ex-colleague & trainee from BRUNCH, now at HAI TIEN LO though still in Pan Pacific) with a beverage at the patio of Cafe Cartel. Chat with her for a while and released that i didn't have her number, so i asked for it. I told her this, "Oh yea, can i have your number? It seems like i'm hooking up with a girl huh..." Haha. Both of us laughed. But this is not the best pick-up line la. Havent 'formulated' a good one yet though.
NEXT UP! Went to gym, and i thought i saw JERALDINE at some target-your-leg-muscles machine. Cause from the sideview it really looks like her, just that that person looks a bit more plump than JERALDINE. Only to realise it wasn't her, luckily i didn't go there and tap her on her shoulders and called her nickname "KuKu Naden", or else i would've made a fool outta myself yeah. AND of course didn't approach her and ask for her number, that isn't a good pickup line remember? Haha.
Went to have a shower after my session and when i went back to my locker to change, i thought i saw someone familiar again. This time it was a guy. Fake JERALDINE can't be in the male locker. I was there changing like nobody's business, didn't realise that CAVEN was with his friend, beside me all the time (like what i've said earlier). The 'diamond' studs that were on his ears seemed familiar, the sideview too. So after i've finished changing and prepare to leave, he came from the toilet and we saw each other then the same usual, "EHH?" with-that-shocked-face part came... Haha. Cliche but yeah... Chatted for a while before he made his departure to the start of his gym session and i leaving the gym.
So yup, i guess that's the end. See you next time!
