well, i'm liking john grisham. something i found quite funny in school on thursday. i skipped chinese intensive and returned to class. had a few rounds of cards, and read finished "tuesdays with morrie". feeling all inspired, i took out "a time to kill". soon after reading finsihed the 4th chapter, remy returns to class, and tells me to lend it to him when i'm done. i must say. i was abit shocked. people in my class actually read these stuff. nicely done wiglet. but really. the books great. i love courtroom drama. in fact.. when i grow up, i would like to be either a personal investment banker, CEO of the world, or a criminal lawyer. of course, my brother sez that non-criminal lawyers really bring in the big bucks. but. whats the point going to a courtroom to discuss the validity of a building's insurance?
man.
i'm going to get the other mitch albom books later. i like the inspiration that "tuesdays with morrie" gave me. i'm gonna live life as it is now.
ironically, i'm talking about enjoying life about 45 minutes before i'm due for chinese tuition. don't get me wrong.. i absolutely love/need this tuition. its the reason why i have the chance of relaxing abit more after 28th may. my tuition teacher is the best you could find. in all honesty.
my only other tuition, a-maths, has a teacher who is real cool. my brother's friend living down the street. yes, i'm rather dependent on my brothers for ideas of life and lessons to learn, and contacts. well, about the results.. from never passsing an a-maths exam in my life to a 53 where paul ooi only got 55 speaks for itself. i tell you. this guy only had 1 1/2 months with me before my exam. he owned amaths, and together, we're gonna rule the stock market.
back to living life. i hate studying. studying drains the life outta me. i also hate the singapore system of waiting. we have to wait for everything.
yesterday, i waited 3 whole furikin' hours with my mom just to get my passport photo updated. yes.. the passport photo that almost got me detained in malaysia earlier this year is now updated. my biggest mistake was not bringing the book. who woulda thought it would be soo soo long?
my queue number was 7831. fresh out of the queue to get a queue number, i looked at the "now serving board". it was serving 7543.
