「 what i have to say... 9:30 AM 」
hihi... after a long break... im back blogging!! yeah... (clap clap) hees...
it's just that the last week has been a busy one and didnt really get down to blogging and stuff... so a short recap of last week's busyness...

the first major thing was that my NTU tutor came down to 'visit' me. oh... it wasn't a causal visit, but rather to assess me on my Industrial Attachment (IA). So the whole week, i had to write my log book of happenings for the past 10 weeks... and yeah... that means less time to blog. But he came, he saw, and he left... nothing much that he said, but at least he seemed happier then when i called him on the phone, or went down to see him personally that time. maybe it's the NTU office, makes professors grumpy... =X

on to the second point of my blog...

learning to drive has always been and interesting experience, the instuctors that you meet and the on the road driving... on one of the drives, i met 2 people that we trying to come into my lane... and almost causing an accident!! but it was a nice experience... and the instructor was good, with his lightning reflexes, steered me to safety... but this also talks about the type of drivers that we have on the roads nowadays...
another instructor was pretty grumpy from the start. not talking, just keep on saying, 'this mistake will cause you XX points.' not really the encouraging type. the whole driving, was such that... how should i put it... i can't wait for it to get over.
apparently, the difference was in that, the grumpy one is a full time instructor... while the other one is not... hence, being stuck in a car with 'wannabe' drivers, makes you grumpy too... lol

but... i wanna be different from the world. Even the first instructor, the friendly one, has his own problems, and he did seem concerned about it when we talked. I wanna be the one that when people talk to, they feel refreshed, that i will not be one that speaks negative things, but instead, change the whole way people see things. problems are problems becuse you allow them to be. sometimes, a little change in your perspective goes a long way.

working life is indeed not easy. you have to consider about you work when its office time, the pressure from the boss, the late hours that you have to work till... but all in all, give yourself time... time to do the things that you like (or buy something like you like)... to cheer yourself up once in a while, to give yourself a pat on the back, and say 'well done'.

be a light in the darkness, bring happiness instead of sadness, be joyful instead of being depressed. be a different from the world, be a world changer.
