hahahahahah!!!! Finally, after 3 long weeks of waiting, my makeover photos are finally out!!! hahaha....
Okay, not all the photos are good, but I am generally satisfied with my photos. Although it is very expensive, I feel that it is worth it...maybe I should have makeovers every now and then...that is of course, when I started working...
Technology makes wonders...beauty wonders of course...look at my pictures!! They have my red BCG scar on my left hand removed!! I am so happy!! =P (Okay, I am over exaggerating...)
By the way, before I collected my photos, I went to the JCS(Japanese Cultural Society) to take a qualifying test for the Japanese Intermediate lesson. Unfortunately, it is a situation whereby you feel that you are completely useless.
Once I looked at the paper, I knew I was going to fail it. It was the 2004 elementary test paper damn it! I knew how to read Hiragana, but the words are so remote to me, I couldn't help staring at the paper, with my heart dropping all the way to my bowels. I managed to write in a sentence or two, a word or two...but thats all I could manage...ahahahha...
I even have time to listen to this stupid girl who is arguing with the admin staff outside the classroom. (I was the only one taking the test at that moment) She was trying to register for the japanese class but it was listed on the board that the class registration starts at 26th December. One of the memorable sentences she spoke was :"We are taking the Master's degree, and we wouldn't have time to come all the way here to register"
Okay...so you are in the Master's class...so?
Apparently, I have seen alot of well-educated people who believes that with higher education, they can most probably change any organisations' operations just by complaining.. (Okay...this is coming from my working experience in the bank industry) Okay, maybe I am just being subjective...but I just don't get it? What makes them think that they can change anything just by complaining and arguing? What I don't get it is that they should be smart enough to realise that all companies have their own limitations and 'rules', so they should just shut up and compromise. sigh...
The girl proceeds to ask about the qualifying test. Here is the conversation between the girl and the admin staff.
Girl: I have taken the japanese course in my uni before...so do I have to start from the elementary course?
Staff: Well, which school did you study in?
Girl: NTU
Staff: Okay, you may try for the intermediate course.
Girl: But it has been a long time since I took the course
Staff: Okay, or maybe you wish to start from elementary
Girl: But I don't want to start from stratch
Staff: Okay, why don't you take the test and see if you can try for the intermediate course
Okay, I have to stop here because somewhere during the conversation, my mind manages to spot a question that I knew and proceed to answer that particular question. Thus, my reception of the conversation have been muffled. But, after I have attempted five questions, the girl is still carrying on with how long she had stopped taking the language course and trying to find an alternative way to take the intermediate course without taking the test...
Troublesome little girl. And to think that she is older than me.
Okay...I shall stop minding other people's business. Maybe that should be my new new year resolution..which I never attempt to attain....urgh...
Okay...I think this is the longest blog I have posted!!! ;P
Ciaos!
